Graveyard of a Madman Part 44

Previous: Graveyard of a Madman Part 43

In the distance, there came a blaring voice, one that echoed through the whole battlefield. Much of the fighting halted for a moment. Most of the buildings were either toppled over, or destroyed from the inside with just the frame remaining intact. At first, the blaring voice was hard to understand, but some of it became just a little more tangible as they heard it was getting closer. Knave, who had rebroken his hand, and many of his ribs panted with blood running down his face, and he was the first to see a man walking down the street with a megaphone den den mushi. He had short, spikey black hair and wore a black trench coat. Though some Marines found him familiar, no one could put a finger on where they'd seen him before.

That was when it struck Knave, that feeling of dread when he looked at the man. He hadn't seen that scowling face for many moons, and that was a good thing. Although, if his presence meant what he thought it meant, then maybe it was a better sign than he could imagine.

Raine: Rise above the system!!! Stop the machine before it stops you! Bring about peace and ride among the free! The purest of us all will attain the world! Fight for your will to live and reasons to prevail!

Marine: Hey! Get that man! Restrain him! He's part of the Revol-- GAAHH!!! [Was sliced by a figure that stood in front of him, propped up by her gigantic scissors as their points were in the ground.]

Emily: Alright, Raine! That's enough of a distraction! We're in place!

The battle had halted at that point of confusion. That was when the marines started to suspect fowl play, and it wasn't long before their suspicions were confirmed. Shots from the outlining area started to ring out, and many of the marines fell.

Lee: What the... [Gonzo Lee looked to his side to see another, who was obviously a revolutionary.]

The taller man, clad in a black short sleeve shirt and black pants, sporting a very large, magnum pistol. On his upper arm, close to his shoulder, there was an R tattooed. He continued to fire. It wasn't long before the battle started back up, this time with the marines and the androids scattering from their formations. The Revolutionary Army came in full force at that moment.

David: [Looked toward Lee.] We can handle it from here, you can get to your base of operations.

Lee: You mind loaning me one of those magnums?

David: I do mind. [Shot a marine in the side, laying him low.]
