(Okay yeah getting back to this thing and skipping the transformation sequence because this is also still in progress so blah blah transform blah moving on okay...)
Silver was used to how the blue armor felt around him. To a point, it was comforting--a sign he was ready to take on whatever was thrown his way. He imagined Shadow feeling the same, and glanced over. Sure enough, the other Hunter was in his own red armor, sword drawn, waiting for the next move.
Then, of course, there was their newbie, and well...
"You're our third one?"
She blinked at Silver, as if she couldn't believe his question, before looking down at the purple and black armor she now wore. "I guess so," she answered. "Not bad, heh."
"But you're a girl." The statement was out before he could even realize he'd thought of it.
The worker's blank stare said quite a bit. "Your point?"
"Fight now, bicker later," Shadow directed, herding the rookie behind a fixture loaded with shoeboxes. "We need a strategy."
Okay, a strategy sounded like a really good idea, and the closer that thing got, the less time they had to react.
"Anyone remember what the right thing is to hit, and what's just going to make it really angry?" Silver asked, hiding behind a rack of hanging clothing.
"Three of us and one of them," the rookie spoke up. "How about we just aim for everything we can, and hope something works?"
Shadow glanced over at Silver with a shrug. "Sound good to you?"
Three against one, decent odds. Maybe the rookie wasn't too bad. At least she wasn't trying to run away like some girls would. Of course, he added to himself, she was the first girl he'd actually seen fighting with them, so maybe it was too soon. He hadn't even seen Elise join them, and she was probably--
"Move!" Shadow directed, leaping from his spot and running forward. The rookie was behind him for a moment before ducking behind another fixture and heading for a spot near the enemy's back end.
Silver took up the same idea, quickly leaving his location and heading for the monster's rear on the other side of the aisle. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad, trying to fight in here. They could use enough hiding places.
The rookie nodded to him from her spot, raising the twin pistols her costume came with. She was ready.
Silver nodded back. Ready as well.
They'd wait until Shadow got the ball rolling...
...and maybe after the battle, he'd finally get her name.
---
(Yeah, more cliffhanger, just a short one. The rookie does have a codename, just not released yet--she's Agent Blaze, to keep the theme going. To a point, she's based on yours truly, hehehe. If anything else comes up for questions, ask away! More to come~)
