TRANSMISSION 1: SUBJECT 1116
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UyeZeAOag
The following was recovered from a journal belonging to Subject 1116, a.k.a. "Blue" found within the Highlands of Hemlock. This information is highly sensitive and keep in mind 1116 has committed treason to the Deceivers of Hemlock. Do not take any of this information as a fact. This subject does not honor or represent the core fundamentals of our nation.

Journal recovery from subject 1116, self identifies as "Blue."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLRqhTl66S
It is unlikely for 1116 to create a map of the region this accurate on their own; Infiltrator Intelligence assumes the subject is not alone in their pathetic attempts to dishonour the principals of Hemlock. Any spark of hope among the Victims must be extinguished.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25AB7bXA6H
1116 has eluded our patrols for the last 3 weeks or so. The subject's "hideout" has not been discovered as of now, but fear not. We now possess a map with its exact location, and this scum will pay for the crimes they have committed (acts of l*ve) against our sacred nation.

This journal entry by the subject shows their delusion and naiveté. It's almost laughable. This idiot must be crushed.

——End of post made by the Dictator of Hemlock at the top of Deceiver Headquarters, it being 10:00 A.M. sharp——
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF3MjibnP9
After the post was published across all of the region — via announcements as well as holograms and such that were capable of sharing it — the Dictator grumbled to himself, alone in his fancy room at the tip-pity top of the Headquarters. He was pissed to find out the fugitive was smart by ripping out every journal entry beforehand, yet began to accept that knowing its hideout's exact location is the biggest information he could get his grimy hands on. The dictator had high hopes that the threat would meet its demise quickly and the fear of residents realising how rotten the city truly is due to his take over, creating the Southern nation.

Back at Green's base with the six
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kgjgZwVAV
It hadn't been long since the preparation for fighting had started — only 30 minutes or so since the six began to practice fighting along with self defence — before everyone's attention went towards the loud announcement somewhere outside of the hideout.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pkVMZ7UI5
"RESIDENTS OF HEMLOCK, we have possibly found where the fugitives hideout is along with a journal! The Dictator has just posted findings that have been analysed by Infiltrator Intelligence, so look for it in holograms or your electronics. Soon you will no longer have to live in fear that you'll be its next victim because, as we speak, Infiltrators and General Grievous are searching for the hideout in hopes to find and imprison the fugitive once and for all..."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DKw4OXfIQ
Blue stood there, even more worried than before as they felt they'd messed up big time— but Red noticed how worked up he looked.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxc9Cmssc59
She wrapped her hands around his neck, holding him close as she spoke with a reassuring tone once again.
"Hey... it's going to be okay, Blue. I can chat with the others about heading out soon so we can go and protect your hideout from being found. We could keep watch of it... and assassinate whoever comes near, or just kill the general before anyone finds it."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLjD7D6iAn
"Yeah... that sounds good. Thanks for doing this for me, I'll just stay here and practice some more with my knife."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNnQ0cUrBg
"Alright... I'll see you later, love."
Was said by his girl, which made his heart flutter, along with making him feel love-sick by her kindness and love for him. It felt unreal. He yearned for moments like this. And now he's living in it; moments of pure true love not plagued by the strict order of the totalitarian government they live in.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiywJz3kXka
Blue watched Red as she walked off into another room, in search of the others, before continuing his practice— although by himself now. He practiced dogging and self defense in general, stabbing, and moves that worked without the need for a knife and instead his limbs. This helped his mind stray away from thinking about the worst possible outcomes with the hideout situation, that being the map in the hands of the higher ups now.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMppy6UhR8L
A few moments pass and everyone enters the room, following behind Green as Red guides them all to Blue. He could not tell what the four others thought of the idea, building up a sense of worry in him as there was only very few feet between him and the others.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDWjfk7q4q
Then Green stopped, looking unsure but wanting to communicate maturely with the blue haired member of the team.
"For what Red told us, we're not so sure fully... I don't want any of us to die out there from being so unprepared...! There's no hard feelings man, but I want to value everyone's safety as a whole. Yours too. We're far away from your hideout too, who knows how long it'll take them to find your hideout..."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK6YJFSOmY
Blue was shaken yet managed to hold himself together just enough to not explode right there and then. And somehow he built up his confidence and voice again to speak out his thoughts to the best of his abilities.
"I get it... sorry for this. I think it would be best to prepare more. We've only been practicing for thirty something minutes.... But just listen to me, I think I have a plan."
They sighed as they sat down on a couch in the hideout bigger than his, needing a slight rest on their body after all the stress going through his mind.
"I was thinking... maybe we could take a silent approach on this with your squad — snipers and such — to keep watch for any help I need. And I'll need someone right there with me... that being Red of course. You can decide if you want to go with us or your squad. And what do you say to heading out close to sunset, get there when it just turns dark?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV9l0s3eJv
Green pondered. Thought for a moment. Wondered whether Blue's idea was bull crap or not, so they turned it to a vote.
"I'm... I don't know for sure, it's hard. What do you all think about his idea, hands for yes?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLCab5m7wE
All hands that were not Green's, Blue's, nor Red's raised in the air quickly.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtVZH1HFtl
"Alright. We don't seem to have any other ideas, and we should focus on gaining skill... so everyone go head back to what you were doing previously. Meetings over."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWxrtSrDcg
Everyone listened to Green who was the closest thing to a leader at the hideout, though not harsh with their orders. It was just Blue and Red in the room now, Blue continuing to lay limp on the couch while Red could barely hold in a laugh due to how silly he was laying. They soon got back to practicing after having a moment to chill and calm their minds through sharing a warm embrace to fight off any bad thoughts still roaming through both their thick minds.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk2wZFlNfA
4:00 P.M.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrcxCOcFFJ
The group got in six more hours of practicing before it was time to go if they want to reach Blue's hideout by the time the sun sets. They felt well prepared for destroying any Infiltrators in their path of ending General Grievous' life. The first of the plan was to go on the train as undercover Infiltrators to get over to the Highlands in a reasonable amount of time. And in fact no time could be wasted anymore in these moments, they must get to the train soon. So then they all switched into military-like clothing, put on a helmet covering most of their face, and grabbed their weapon of choice. Blue would be using his knife but still took a weapon as him and Red talked about her dual wielding two at once, she thought it was a crazy but cool idea and did agree.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iDn6FMAYY
Getting to the train station was a smooth journey and the disguises worked flawlessly as the six were able to casually pass by true Infiltrators, simply appearing as a group heading to a designation by train. Although they noticed the general lack of patrol happening everywhere— assuming this is due to the knowledge of where the fugitives' hideout is located within the Highlands of Hemlock. It was a simple and quiet ride there, muttering among the crowd of residents riding the train. There were usually never as many as six to a group of Infiltrators entering the train, so it was a bit much for the victims of the train although these are not true ones.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06a33oZkt6
10 minutes later the group would exit after the train came to their stop, the closest they could go to the Highlands, with them all hurrying to the forest. There was an obvious increase in Infiltrators roaming around the highlands compared to everywhere else, so their silent assumption was correct. But this was perfect— more Infiltrators in a close range meant more fatality, the group hopefully able to eliminate a large amount. Nearing the hideout, Blue signalled everyone to find somewhere to sit and snipe from while he and Red, along with Green, head to confront any Infiltrators— and especially General Grievous.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5tciQJJaA
With General Grievous and multiple Infiltrators
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvphUy566F
He could feel they were close to finding the fugitives' hideout— it had to be somewhere, any spot. Right on top of it even, according to the hand drawn map acquired by 1204. It was as if his thoughts called it, finding a moss covered, wooden door. To no surprise it was unlocked...this was due to Blue not having a way to lock the door from the outside, it was not convenient at all. Maybe he could have just locked it and gone out a window— but the Infiltrators would have found their way in no matter what.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwIusZtCYY
As entering the wooden shack, General Grievous gave an order to the Infiltrators with him — maybe 5 or so currently — who were ready to take down the traitor, Subject 1116.
"Be on lookout, it may be hiding anywhere— waiting for the perfect time to jump out at us."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfp7zCesYc
And so they all listened to his command. The Infiltrator's always do, or they would be seriously in trouble and abused for hours on end depending on how many times they've disobeyed him. None of them could back out if they feel it's the morally correct thing to do, feeling remorse for the runaway— it was a grave situation they've all dug themselves into. All unable to break free like Red and Green have, but maybe someday... if they don't die before then.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIYwT6RvWE
While searching for the traitor, and failing miserably, one Infiltrator gazed past the entrance door— swearing he saw someone standing in the doorway who disappeared when he looked back at it. The man was a bit shaken, swearing he saw the mysterious shadow holding a knife of some kind.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJUw2dWrEA
A few seconds passed and another Infiltrator luckily was near him enough to get their attention.
"dude—! I swear... I swear I saw the fugitive in the entrance doorway. Knife and all. But casted in a shadow."
He said while gasping for air in pure fear.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrkHuTeLQF
The other man was a bit startled as well, but instead by how the Infiltrator in front of him is acting.
"Um— okay, he's probably inside... even if you've just gone crazy, I'll come with you."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYjcy9XEG9
"Thanks—"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0EsfupU5A
They headed for the open entrance door, it being an unusually chilly afternoon as it neared 5:00 P.M. with the sun being, for the most part, fully set. There seemed to be no sign of the fugitive as the two slowly emerged back to the outside.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqc6kyZbZv
"I don't get why you're so freaked out, the subject doesn't sound that scary. Well, dangerous yes— but we can easily deal with one silly little screw up in society."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyKaQs0vHj
The other Infiltrator was about to speak before getting shot right in the forehead, having been flung downwards by the sheer force, causing his partner to turn into alert mode. He rushed for cover from the mysterious shooter— but when he lifted his head... the Infiltrator was greeted by the escapee's metallic blue hair shining in the dark. The man's eyes were covered by shades they seemed to always wear, making it only possible to see his mischievous grin as he cut and stabbed the Infiltrator to death.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIUXsR8bLX
Red watched Blue reappear from the foliage and shrubs, breathing heavily as they looked for any other Infiltrators heading his way. He was about to signal Red and Green to come but they all saw there were in fact more Infiltrators inside. Three of them— running towards him at full speed with heavy duty rifles in hand. It struck a genuine fear through him— but his high ego helped them push through; any doubt within them was diminishing with each passing second, leaving him no choice but to fight back. Red and Green rushed out to help with their guns — Red's two guns akimbo to her sides since Blue gave her the one he brought — and began shooting at the three enemies. At the same time, Blue blocked and stabbed the Infiltrators all while making sure no bullets came in contact with him.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoknbeYtaE
The three were now dead, standing no chance against the vigilantes. But there stood General Grievous at the end of the hideout's hallway, looking menacing as ever. Blue scoffed as he gave the rugged old man a cocky look, dashing towards him at immense speed while dodging every bullet as the General went ham with his gun. The fugitive believed they could take on the General by himself, heading in for a stab to the grizzly man's heart— failing as the man was strong enough to hold Blue by their neck. He looked at the open door to the outside, seeing two Infiltrators coming in— but he sensed there was something off about them, considering the traitor was wearing attire resembling an Infiltrator.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nfYgn1lbw
The man slammed Blue into his bedroom and locked the door, the fugitive dizzy as they barely managed to hold themself up. General Grievous turned to him with a sinister grin, yet not pointing his gun at the fugitive.
"I knew it. We knew it. You're working with others, those two "Infiltrators" coming towards us... I could only assume they're fakes. Now for you... you and your precarious self coming at me like that, with no help. It was awfully idiotic of you, but reassured me that we will succeed in destroying you and whoever it is you've plagued with your treacherous ways of life and thought."
General Grievous laughed in a crooked, evil way as he enjoyed inducing negative thoughts into Blue. Bringing down the Subject's ego, destroying it. He looked around before speaking once again to the fugitive who looked close to defeat, considering their time may be over already.
"Now... for these drawings and such, this disgusting "art," it seems I'll have to teach you a lesson for creating trash like this. It's childish, I can't even bear to look at these eyesore's. They're better ripped up— wouldn't you agree, Subject 1116?"
The man enjoyed toying with the traitors feelings. It was entertaining, "deserved" he could say.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewIHwkxULz
Not a second past — Blue given no chance to reply at all — before the General began to tear and demolish every single drawing in the bedroom. But suddenly there was banging on the locked door to the bedroom, signalling General Grievous to hurry up and kill Blue.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoanfWoRBQT
"Your time is up, Blue."
Said the middle aged man as he aimed his gun at them.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV684WsT6r
Luckily Red and Green broke down the door just in time, tackling the General to the ground with his bullet missing Blue. The one targeted by the gun shell was frozen in place as he watched, feeling immense guilt for getting the two into this mess. And what General Grievous said seeped into their mind and did indeed destroy his ego. They just wanted to run away; or to live by his sentence.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Cvr2x7sUU
He'd given up— incapable of facing both Red and Green, instead leaving through the window and running as fast as he possibly could. There was no designated place where he wanted to go, just away from everything and everyone. Meanwhile, back at the hideout, Red and Green noticed Blue wasn't in the room with them anymore and a sense of worry immediately inside the both of them. And for Red, she was over the top pissed at the General for all he's done to every Infiltrator including her and Green, but also for how much he wants to kill her lover. For how he and the higher ups managed to make most citizens of Hemlock put them on a pedestal, viewing their words to be what they should follow— their corrupted ideologies. Her breath was shaky as she was infuriated with the anger piling up inside her, letting all of that go as she shot General Grievous in the head just like the Infiltrator on the train, except with a whole lot more bullets.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQrin6lj1G
Green was astonished by her anger, but understood where it was coming from and just glad the General is now dead.
"Shit... that was crazy—!"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA2kXdrodf
"I— u-um... haha, yeah. I just..."
She just had so much pent-up anger.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEltjSjWYe
"Don't worry— ya don't need to explain yourself at all, I understand no matter what. We just need to find Blue... and make sure that this pile of trash is fully dead."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmws0GaQUCu
Red nodded in reply, agreeing with Green's statement. It was very important for them to find where Blue ran off to. Very, very important. They couldn't have him getting hurt, or even worse— die out there all alone. But... for all they could care, the General could and will die. Green crouched and listened in close to the body gushing with blood from its head, it in fact having no pulse as of now.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZoFjRzZBZ
"We're good, though I feel we should give a good stomp to the head... just to make sure."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32c5jgljTt
"Yeah, that'd be enjoyable to do right now..."
After she spoke and agreed with Green, the both of them stomped all over the General's already dead body with occasional kicks to it for multiple seconds.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8rP0P1Wmk
But... where exactly is Blue now? He's reached the edge of the outside, that is. The 36th parallel, usually guarded by soldiers— yet all were sent to search every corner of the highlands... every nook and cranny for the escapee. But it was clear they would only come out of the search with their General dead without a head. He's seen this wall in person maybe once in its creation two years ago, and he badly wanted to look over it— see what's across the wall. Luckily there was a ladder they could use to reach the top, running to it along with climbing up it swiftly— reaching the top within seconds. As he finally... finally reached the top, he looked beyond the massive wall and saw distant homes— cities. Something about it felt like a utopia to Blue, opposite to the dystopia he lives in as of now. The fugitive wanted to escape to the Northern side with Red, bringing Green and \their friends along too. He wanted every resident to get the life they deserve with no totalitarian Dictator in sight. And he just hoped that is what life is like on the other side of this very wall.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8EvHIdp41
Blue was beginning to get a bit emotional just thinking about it as they sat there for minutes on end with almost complete silence, only the occasional vocals from some birds, until that was interrupted by someone sitting down by Blue's side— scaring the living hell out of him.
"Shit—! You scared me, Red... I didn't expect you to find me so fast. W-wait! What about the General??"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcp7jdv0QN
She slowly put her hand on her boyfriend's shoulder before speaking with a tone that matched her soft expression.
"Hey, don't worry... he's gone now. I killed him."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxwEJcxhmx
"Really?! Are you okay— where's uh... Green and the others, are they okay?"
Blue said frantically to her, yet again imagining the worst possibilities, while unable to notice how she didn't look to be saddened by the loss of anyone special such as Green, her life long best friend.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZhdynLXME
"No, no— I'm actually doing pretty well, considering the General is out of our hair now. And Green's just down the ladder watching out for any danger and also making sure the other three get here fine."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc50QwIrmPl
After Red spoke, Blue turned to look down where the ladder touches the ground in which Green was in fact standing at. Then they looked back at Red, having some kid of lost look in his eyes.
"Okay... that's good. I'm happy all of you are alright. I couldn't ever imagine escaping this hell hole without you,"
Blue went silent for a few seconds as he stared off into the distant city.
"Do you ever wonder what it's like out there now? The Northern Nation. Cause, y'know... we haven't traversed the territory it keeps for two years now."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrK7HCD6HB
"I do, a lot. Though I've heard a few things about it when I was an Infiltrator, that it was a horrible place... which is quite ironic considering the conditions here—"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGiNedtTo7
That got a laugh out of him, making Blue almost lose his balance.
"... Yeah, definitely. So... we could just escape right now, huh?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQcJXq4Dfi
The girl had faltered for a few with her expression now one of desolation instead of a loving one.
"It's not that easy... I don't think they tell the average civilian, but there's deadly traps on the Northern side of this wall. You'd die if you went down there. And I think we have some unfinished business here, such as killing the Dictator... fixing all that's wrong."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmIRu0p8DY
"We definitely do... I think we can go down now. But um... before we go, I'm sorry. Sorry for running away all of a sudden and if that hurt you in some way. Did it...?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDohmLWLylZ
Red looked down at Green, not replying to Blue just yet. The emerald locked person was leaning against the 46th parallel border, having a sudden change in emotion once the three others finally arrived. Everyone down there was still in their Infiltrator attire, including Blue and Red. She could barely hear them from all the way on top of the wall, but her procrastination soon ended as Blue spoke to her.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFyzLFctzV
"Red...?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuYTdgUHHB
"What—? Ah-hah... yeah, that."
To be true, at first it left this hole in her heart... but that was soon fixed once she found them again... her love. She just needed to muster up the courage to speak of it. A few seconds passed and she managed to do so while the two were maybe a foot apart while on top of the wall.
"Somewhat, I'd say...? At first I was... hurt. It looked like you gave up, something like that. But after I found you just a few minutes ago, I started to feel fine again. It hurt seeing you like that though, as you've helped me escape the pain in me from being a fucking Infiltrator. And now that pain is gone— all thanks to you, my Blue."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneiyf12fK6
There were practically tears forming in Red's eyes, and Blue could tell. Both of the fugitives' hearts felt this sort of nice pain — fuzzy and warm — as the blue haired boy scooted their body right next to hers. Now there was no more space between where they sat.
"Oh~ well, I had no problem doing so... I'd do anything for you."
He said with his voice and face now one of smitten at the thought of him and Red, they just had to kiss her again— turning his gaze to Red's lips. Blue softly placed his left hand on Red's cheek, caressing it, before diverting his gaze back to her eyes.
"May I...?"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX5rCjLWUZ
Red gave a small nod which told Blue that he was allowed to do so— a kiss, their second one. A kiss of the night, that is. And that's what they did, it being Blue who headed in to start the kiss off passionately with Red reciprocating the kiss with them. It was an ethereal moment between the two lovers who had no care in the world around them while the kiss was still on. Both their Infiltrator mask off, their vibrant hairs shining in the starry night— painting the sky blue and red. This was true love, a love that won't be having Hemlock's rules stop it from existing in this present time, not in some banned piece of book or any kind of information that contained subjects of love.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaXwRfJHpl
But this love... it was violently interrupted as a sniper bullet managed to make contact with Blue's ear. It barely missing the shot for the head, but had successfully stopped the twos love making.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXhcrTvHLW
Blue, almost falling off into the Northern Nation side of the wall, was luckily saved by Red— freaked out as her boyfriend's ear was missing a part of it along with blood gushing out.
"Shit... nonono— we need to go. Can you climb down the ladder? I can have Green and the others watch you to make sure you don't hit the ground ."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ142khhOqFW
"What— I- um... yeah, just- just do that."
Blue was shaking badly and hyperventilating a bit but managed to cool himself down with a few breaths
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaGRkc1VnJ
While they were calming down, Red yelled down at the four others with a small amount of distress in her voice. They all heard and listened, Green giving a thumbs up so no one had to yell again. Next thing was getting him down there... in which Red helped guide him to the ladder safely, eventually starting his way back down to solid ground. After reaching said ground, Blue held onto Green by their shoulders, searching for any source of support to keep himself standing at this moment in time.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiFCZSv9uM
"Damn, Blue...!"
Has said Green who took out some supplies that'll help with the wound, first turning to speak to the three others first.
"Go make sure no more Infiltrators try to shoot at any of us. So kill any in sight, okay? And stay safe, please."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq9U9GnDES
Novu groaned, rolling their eyes at their siblings words that had an over protective feel to them.
"Okay, okay— we'll do that..."
They were less stubborn in this situation because of the danger Blue is currently in.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Jh5ZvwmJf
Green only sighed, paying their attention back to Blue who was visibly dizzy. They wanted to reassure him that this is all going to be alright.
"It's gonna be okay, dude... we won't let you die on our watch."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlE7oKHIB3p
Red was almost done with climbing down the tall ladder by the time Green finished talking to Blue, then rushing to make sure he's alright.
"Is- is his ear going to be okay?!"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87gWzKWKYH
"Shh, we gotta stay low- Infiltrators could be near. But I'm not entirely sure how his ear will be affected by this, like if they can still hear from it or not. Although I did stop the bleeding in the ear with that cotton ball there, and I also applied some stuff to the part of the ear that's been shot. It'll relieve most of his pain from the bullet."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpIzBWEb1i
She was relieved most definitely— having a much more soft and relaxed voice, although still majorly shook by this event along with everything else.
"Okay... thanks so much for helping him."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXvdqEpWlg
"Yeah, I have no problem helping my friends."
Green said nonchalantly before turning to face everyone in the group, turning back into a leader who gives out specific orders to keep everyone safe.
"But we all need to be on the look out for any Infiltrators as we make our way back to the base. Let's all put our masks back on and go, alright? We can all have a partner near in case there's a turn of events. I'll go with Novu, Red you go with Blue, then Emma and Lee— you both stick together. But we will all still stick together relatively, so don't go anywhere with just your partner and especially by yourself."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG6rwEJdHg
With everyone agreeing to who they had been partnered up with, the group began to set foot back into the Highlands of Hemlock while sticking together. As the night grew darker every minute the harder it would be for the six to avoid danger in the deep forest.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZpufRAup7
Around 20 minutes of carefully walking through the woods had passed with an unusual amount of silence, no Infiltrators in sight. That all changed when multiple of them emerged from behind shrubs, trees, and other characteristics of these woods. Quickly the mood had changed from calm to chaos due to the nerve-racking amount of guns pointing right at the group.
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLbISyosgm
All six of the vigilantes weren't sure how to act — move or not — as the Infiltrators whispered to one another while keeping their guns aimed at the conspicuous "Infiltrators."
"You thinking one of thems the fugitive? Man we only suspected one other person, not five working with this prick."

"Yes... I know it's more than we expected. But I was thinking... why would any Infiltrator's be at the wall right now? Now, everyone go and unmask them all till you find that fucker who was lucky enough my bullet didn't strike right through its head."

All of the Infiltrator's agreed and made the first move— running towards the group of six who were unsure if they'll get out of this alive. But that didn't mean they would back down— Red dual wielding her guns once again and killing twice the amount of army men. Along with that was the four others — not including Blue — who shot their guns with her.

After just 10 minutes or so of fighting to protect Blue, the Infiltrators caught on to who may be the Subject they're interested in. They knew it had to be the one in the middle, surrounded by the five other fakes like a prey does for their young when a predator is in for the kill, or a seize in this case. There was no need for revealing any of the other fakes identities as that may falter their chance at successfully abducting Subject 1116. For why they were not killing him just yet was for one reason — torture, a pigs favourite pass time.

Suddenly an Infiltrator from high above shot and tranquillised Blue with a sedative, abruptly knocking him out due to how strong the potency of the drug was.

Red heard a thud behind her, turning back to be frightened by the sight of Blue knocked out cold on the ground as the Infiltrators closed in. She instinctively ran to them, having a panic attack as she sat there empty-minded.
"B-Blue— no...! No...."

They were outnumbered and if the group did not get moving... they would meet their fates of tragic endings. Death. Green was the second to notice, having conflicting thoughts on what exactly the five should do with Blue sedated.
"Red— we have to go... they'll kill us if they stay!"

"No!"
She snapped back angrily, pushed to her limits again by everything and everyone in Hemlock. Her guns went back into action as she launched back up from the ground, starting a small blitzkrieg between only her and the rest of the Infiltrator's still standing.

Green silently watched, frozen in place as they regretted the words they'd said to their best friend. Yet, still their mind was conflicted on how to go about this situation.

Surprisingly she killed a good chunk of Infiltrators, eventually getting some help from the others while Green was practically protecting Blue with their life. They felt a guilt inside of them for having the intention of leaving Blue behind in their words towards Red, creating that feeling to make sure he doesn't get taken away. For Red.

But that failed. Completely failed.

The body of Blue, still knocked out cold, was snatched up by an Infiltrator who happened to be Subject 1204– still overly bitter about their partners death. Now he's the new leader for the Infiltrators after quickly finding out their General is dead, being the one to attempt in shooting Blue. And now somehow he managed to grab the fugitive behind Greens back... and when they noticed the vacancy of their friend sent them into a spiral of emotion— regret... self-hatred... just a jumble of negative thoughts.

In the midst of chaos Green headed for Red who was preoccupied with killing any Infiltrator who nears her.
"R-red..."
They were freaking out, breath shaking...
"Blue... he's gone. I- I don't know what happened to him, an Infiltrator could have took him when I wasn't looking... I just don't know."
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfREUYzqhPW
She was feeling a mixed of emotions as well, just like Green was.
"Wh-what..."
Looking behind Green, Red did not see a sign of Blue. There were still a few Infiltrators yet to be killed.
"We- we have to find them!"
Tears wouldn't stop falling from her eyes as she spoke under her breath, looking away from Green and back towards the Infiltrators nearing again.
"Fucking dammit, why do they do this... he doesn't deserve any of it."

"I don't know it might be too risky for all of—"
78Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEoFmIOOqn
She turned to her best friend, then projecting her anger out on them.
"Just stop! Would you want me to let you die?? No! So I'm going to find him myself, you can deal with the rest of these assholes yourself. Or with the three others, I don't fucking know!"
After she dumped out her tense feelings Red stormed off, tears continuing to flow like water falls down her face. Her legs were running as fast as they could before turning in a slow, sluggish walk as she focused on figuring out who exactly took Blue. And where they took them.

Green was starting to really regret their own actions, trying to block those melancholic, self-hatred thoughts through killing what Infiltrators were left. They were extremely worried about Red taking on the journey to find Blue herself, but they had to focus on getting rid of the danger right in front of them first before doing anything else.
