"That"s the initial force wiped out.."Looking around at what had been a lively marketplace about 5 minutes ago Lux switched over to normal breathing as she expelled the last carbon dioxide out of her lungs and took a deep breath as her mind started racing.
(In the end I had to use an entire magazine of anti personnel… Magic really is a unfair advantage.)
Around Lux the terrain had been severely deformed by magic. Walls of rock had been raised in defence while slabs of earth and ice had littered the area after fruitlessly being launched after Lux. Realizing she had idled around enough Lux briefly made contact with orbiting surveillance satellites and checked the area around her, and not a second too late. Having looked through eyes from up high someone had closed to less than a meter from her using some sort of cloaking prodjected only towards Lux herself.
(!!!)
Panicking slightly Lux blocked a knife meant for her neck with her rifle and immediately took another knife to her right arm.
"f.u.c.k!"
Feeling her tendons being sliced apart Lux lost the grip in her hand as the rifle was torn from her as she got a good look at her attacker. It was a girl around the age of 18, she had short bright red hair and large brown eyes that looked intriguingly at the blood that gushed out of Lux"s arm.
"h.e.l.lo!~ Time to die!"
Giving a warm bloodthirsty smile the girl drew another knife from her endless belt of various weapons as she kicked Lux"s rifle away as she continued her a.s.sault, Lux in response kept blocking the attacks with the armor on her left arm as her right arm quickly healed. After about 30 seconds she could close her right arm and then immediately formed a fist.
"Why are you not dy!- Ghe!"
As the girl turned more and more ferocious Lux landed a well placed jab in center ma.s.s and sent her flying, feeling bones being shattered.
"Good f.u.c.king grief, learn to aim for vitals. Go for vital organs, eyes, anything important."
Checking the healing on how her arm was doing Lux started bouncing around on the tips of her toes as a she drew a knife herself.
"Come on, final round."
"ARG! f.u.c.k!!!"
Looking way more p.i.s.sed off this time the woman called for a ally as she herself started channeling mana trough her body and formed blades of pure rock that floated around her. Slightly requetting that she hadn"t outright killed her opponent Lux started becoming vigilant of her opponents magic as she slowly edged towards her like a kickboxer with guards up.
(The second I go for my backup weapon she"ll pounce on me…. Guess I need to end this with my knife..)
Having overcome the advantage of surprise her opponent had Lux still kept close attention on her surroundings as she charged in for the kill.
"No you don"t!"
Seeing the move coming from a mile away the a.s.sa.s.sin channelled mana into her leg as she stamped the ground and made spikes of earth erupt from the ground around her. In response Lux jumped into the air and turned on the att.i.tude control system on her armor and was about to kill the a.s.sa.s.sin when she heard a familiar sound of a rifle being primed that made her break off last second as bullets flew right past her head.
"Tom you f.u.c.king missed!"
As Lux crashed to the ground while bullets snapped past her head she scrambled past busted up marked stands as she reached her rifle, picked it up and promptly jumped in through a window of a nearby building.
"Rebeca are you okay?"
"It"s just a few cracked ribs I"m okay, more importantly my pray is getting away!"
Lux only just managed to get a look at the second attacker before she jumped into cover but she knew the sound the weapon he used by heart.

(A 0999 huh.. Seems like they really did manage to break the databank encryption. If I only had the id code for that weapon I could enact denial protocol…)
Working out multiple plans of attack Lux was suddenly and rudely interrupted.
["s.h.i.+t! Lux we have contact! Iris too!"]
["Same here! Draw out the fight I"ll be there as soon as possible!"]
(f.u.c.k..)
Turns out it had been a simultaneous attack, as that truth dawned on her Lux realized that she was out of time. Checking that her rifle was still working correctly Lux inserted a new magazine with one hand while preparing a fragmentation grenade with the other.
"Here we go…"
Tapping the grenade against her shoulder out of habit Lux pressed the pin and primed the grenade as she closed in on the window she had jumped in from.
"1 duck, 2 duck, 3 ducks."
Counting in a slightly childish manner as the fuse steadily counted down Lux seemed relaxed like she was checking her groceries she let the frag fly as she moved away from the window where a hail of bullets shredded everything in response. Listening after the gunfire Lux pointed her rifle loaded with uHVAG high velocity ammunition directly at the wall in front of her.
"There you are~"
Letting loose a short burst of shorts Lux heard the familiar squishy sound of a center of ma.s.s. .h.i.t on a organic target Lux smashed through the wall out into the plaza where she was meet with a volley of rock shards that she sidestepped by slipping down on one knee as she steadied her rifle against her shoulder and emptied the rest of her magazine towards the a.s.sa.s.sin that was now bright red due to high velocity blood spatter. By an act of sheer luck Rebeca survived with only grazing shoots as she closed range to exploit the gab in fire while Lux reloaded, but she ultimately made a fatal mistake.
"s.h.i.+T!-"
Lux having expended her primary weapon Lux immediately drew her secondary pistol and short Rebeca 4 times, one time in each limb.
"ARG!!! f.u.c.k YOU!"
Screaming out in pain Rebeca fell to the ground where Lux shot her several more times as she strategically destroyed every joint in her arms and legs.
"Any last words?"
"f.u.c.king bi!-"
"I guess not… Iris how are you doing?"
["Badly"]
["We need help"]
"On my way."
Taking a last look at the havoc and destruction around her Lux made sure she had killed her two attackers by shooting them a few more times in the head as she sent a single sentence up the chain of command.
"Splash 2 primary targets."
