Scythe, Sword And Steel

Chapter 39 - Lost Brother

"G-Gusion!!! Are you okay?"

Gusion slowly opened his eyes and saw Lesley beside her. Her face was dirty and covered in dust. As he looked around, he couldn't see a thing, as the smoke and dust were everywhere. Slowly and slowly, he saw soldiers running their way, pointing their guns at them.

"You're going to die!!!"

Lesley fired shot after shot to take down the enemies. She eventually ran out of bullets, and her only choice was to retreat.

Gusion took out his blade to light up the surroundings. It was dark everywhere and they couldn't see a single thing. As he held Lesley's arm, they ended up getting surrounded by more soldiers.

"Mission, Vespid, I think we captured Gusion Paxley." the soldier said.

"Good, now get him!" a voice in the phone replied.

Gusion used his dark magic to blind the enemies. They tried to escape to find the others. As they got out of the smoky area, they saw Hayabusa and Roger tied up with ropes. Three alien-like beings were standing before them, with even more soldiers with them.

Layla, Clint and Ruby appeared behind them, carrying their weapons in their hands.

"Gusion Paxley..... It's about time we met."

A guy with a staff and a big alien helmet stood in front of them. Lesley started to feel weird and recognized the guys face. He looked at Lesley as well, but with a greeting smile.

"H-Harley??? is that you?!" Lesley asked.

"Sister... Long time no see!" Harley replied.

"H-Harley! Wake up! What are you doing??? Don't tell me you're working for the Abyssal side!"

"And shockingly I am. I was once a broken child, with nowhere to go. But now look at me, I am reborn. I am free!!!

"What do you mean? I've been following you for seven months and now this??? What happened to you???"

"You see, I was arrested by that S.A.B.E.R. Squad when I was in Antoinerei, don't you recognize me Layla!?"

"What? I was doing my job!" Layla said. "You robbed our laboratory and you were caught in the crime. Is that guy really your brother Les?!"

"He is, but Harley, I'm not your enemy, I'm your sister! We're family!"

"Don't listen to that sniper Harley!" Grock said, sticking out his tongue.

"He's right!" Angela said. "I want Gusion to be with us!"

"A-Angela?! Don't tell me you got brainwashed too!" Gusion said.

"Brainwashed? Madness! Dr. Leo created me first before these guys, and you're our leader Paxley! Maybe you're the one brainwashed by that Empire!"

"Angela, listen to me! Don't you remember me? I was the guy who saved you in the middle of the desert. You were inside that that capsule and I saved you! Don't you remember me Angela? I'm your friend!"

"I know we're friends, but why won't you come with us?"

"Yeah come on Paxley! We'll destroy the S.A.B.E.R. Squad together!" Grock said.

Gusion looked at the ground with no hope that they would listen to him. He looked at them with serious eyes.

"I won't let you take my side over my friends. You've became maniacs trying to kill everyone in the city. You were reborn for no reason! Think about it! You Harley, you were once a top student in the Mage Academy, now you've become an octupus head commiting crimes across the land! Grock, you were once a giant who didn't do anything but sleep, now that you've awakened, it doesn't mean you have to kill. And you Angela, you forgot your best friend, your mission. Where was the loving robot I met before?"

Gusion was breathing hardly, trying his best not to draw his sword. The others were only watching Gusion as he tried to talk to them.

"They're all gone Gusion. They're all gone."

"Then we have no choice. I didn't want to fight you, but I guess we have to."
