Chapter 4
Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame.
-Benjamin Franklin
Stretching out as she was lead down the narrow shipway, Chifuyu tried not to feel too out of place. The ill-fitting khaki uniform was part of her unease, but a lot of it came from the tight confines of the submarine’s corridors. Trying not to let her discomfort show too much, she followed her guide through a hatchway into the bridge.
“Commander Riley, ma’am.” Sliding to the side, the ensign who had been guiding her let Chifuyu pass without trying to press up against her. Chifuyu, for her part, worked to avoid him as well, but she could not help but notice his eyes tracking her body as she came in close.
Commander Riley looked up from his clipboard briefly before signing off on the report and passing it back to the enlisted man holding at attention. “That will be all, dismissed.” Turning his full attention to Chifuyu, the weathered face and eyes shifted in his seat. “Chifuyu Orimura. I must say, your presence here is a bit offsetting and enjoyable. I got to see some of your matches at the last Mondo Grosso in person. Left me with some enjoyable memories.”
Chifuyu smiled lightly, a practiced action she’d learned to deal with her fans. “Well, I hope we can give you some more enjoyable memories this time. I do need to thank you for the loan of the clothes, and the place to sleep. That couple of hours really helped.”
“Well, we had the time to spare until we reached our destination so it seemed prudent. As for the clothes, that was only sensible. I’ve got an all male crew onboard, and your IS suit is...revealing. Might serve to distract them and we can’t have that on this operation.” Beckoning her on, he climbed out of his seat and started to head back. “COB you have the conn.”
Passing through the hatchway, Commander Riley walked slowly leading Chifuyu through his ship. “Never done any work with an IS before. It is a bit of a novel concept. But you surprised everyone when you started knocking on the hull at five hundred meters down. And the story you gave us, well, it defies most logic. But I have my orders, and that settles it for me.”
“Hope I didn’t damage anything. I did try to be gentle.”
Waving her apology off without looking back, Commander Riley stood aside to let some enlisted men carrying equipment pass. “Won’t know for sure til we do a proper inspection in the dock, but I doubt it. It would have set off alarms to have a breach. Probably no more than hitting any medium sized piece of flotsam.”
Opening up a hatch, Riley lead her into an oversized room lined with big metal tubes. Trying not to shudder as she walked into the missile room, Chifuyu followed him, working the hatch closed as she went through it. There was the sound of people running on the deck, barely covering the metallic slaps of guns being stripped and cleaned. Escorting Chifuyu down a narrow flight of stairs, Riley lead her to a temporary table set into one corner with two men looking down at maps. “Chifuyu Orimura, this is Majors von Eich and Tomlinson.”
Shaking hands with both men, Chifuyu took a quick appraisal of both. Von Eich had the short stocky build of a fireplug, with barrel chest and thick legs. His pale green eyes seemed to look everywhere along her body, but never her face. Tomlinson was tall and lean, a long distance greyhound. His dark skin suggested an Aboriginal ancestry, his beard masking the grin that covered his face. “Welcome Ms. Orimura. We were told you would be coming, but we didn’t expect you to get her until after we had already gone out.”
“Yeah, turns out my IS is a bit faster than people give me credit for. Managed to get here a bit ahead of schedule. So what’s the story about this place?” Chifuyu asked, running her eyes over the map on the table.
Major Tomlinson handled the briefing. “It’s a little volcanic island, all of eighteen square kilometers of real estate. Easiest way to describe it is as Saipan’s little brother. Not much to speak of. Some warehouses here, a desalination plant that provides water and power to the island here. There’s this port facility and a crude airport here. Good enough for it’s purposes I suppose, but when you lose the element of stealth it’s just a bit target to be hit.”
Chifuyu glanced up to look at the faces of the two officers. “Where do you think they’d be holding my brother?”
Von Eich frowned as he answered. “We don’t have that particular info. Intel only told us that there was people here we really wanted dealt with. It wasn’t until we were in transit that we got word about your brother being there.” Tapping his finger on the map on some spots, his light eyes hardened. “But if I was running it I would have kept him in a warehouse, away from a residential area. Makes it easier to secure it, and some of the people, “ von Eich’s voice spat the word out, “are likely to consider any prisoners to be a toy to play with.”
“Yes, I’d do it the same way.” Tomlinson’s words were punctuated with a curt nod. “The biggest issue is that there are these weapon emplacements, plus a couple of nasty SAM sites. We don’t know if they’re going to be manned, but I would feel safe in assuming it. This site here is almost certainly a radar they’re using for naval monitoring plus air traffic control. I don’t know enough about your IS, Ms. Orimura, but I would think they will see it on radar.”
Chifuyu’s frown joined the men’s. “Never really thought about it, since the IS sensors work differently. It probably will be seen on radar, but I don’t know that it would be seen as an aircraft. I could try coming in underwater, but I wouldn’t recommend it. While you can use an IS underwater, it really eats into the power supplies.”
Both men nodded at this little tidbit of information dropped into their laps. “Okay then, we plan to insert our teams by zodiac boats at this beach here, then move on to the residential area. We break down into our assault elements and hit the buildings hard. Intel suggests the people we’re most interested in are in this building, but overall, closing down this island to business is the goal.”
Looking hard at the map, an idea started to form in Chifuyu’s mind. “Looking at the maps, I think there’s a blind spot in their SAM coverage if I come in along this line here. I can use the buildings as a screen and get in close enough to do the SAM sites.”
Von Eich measured out the approach with his eyes. “It should be doable,” he hedged, “but if you make any mistake they’ll be able to fire at you. Do you know if your IS can take a hit from a SAM?”
Chifuyu closed her eyes for a moment, pondering the question. “I don’t know. It might come apart from a big hit like that or it might just knock down my shield hard.” Her brown eyes opened and hardened. “But he’s my brother, damnit. I don’t care about my IS as long as I get him out safe.”
Major Tomlinson broke into a wry smile at her words. “Ms. Orimura, we will do what we can to get him out. The first few people we come across will be taken alive if possible and pumped for information. Any news about his whereabouts will be relayed to you. And every member of both teams has a copy of his picture to help verify his identity.”
Chifuyu smiled lightly at his words. Turning to face both officers now, she snapped into a crisp military salute. “Major von Eich, Major Tomlinson, I can’t thank you enough for letting me participate. I know you didn’t have to and you’re still willing to let me in.”
Both men hesitated only a moment before returning the salute. Major von Eich broke the silence first, “Even if we weren’t under orders to have you come along, I doubt we could have prevented you from involving yourself. It simplifies things by working with you than having you compete against us.”
Major Tomlinson nodded at his companion’s sentiments. “I consider my own troopers family, and I know I wouldn’t hesitate to do anything similar for them if they were in trouble.”
The deck shifted slightly, gaining the tiniest of angles from a flat surface. A small marker on the map rolled off the top of the table, falling to the deck. Tomlinson saw the marker fall, but did not bend over to pick it up. “We’re going up.” Turning to face the soldiers working around the missile hold, he raised his voice. “Sargeant Major, get them ready! I want to be off the sub fast and clean!”
A loud, mean voice picked up the cry, and soon everyone was screaming to prepare. Weapons were readied and cases slammed shut, their locks engaging again. Seeing organized chaos he created going smoothly, Tomlinson turned back to Chifuyu. “Ma’am, can we get you into your IS? We did park it in the way of our assault boats, so it will have to get moved out first.”
“Roger that major.” Heading over to her IS, Chifuyu started unbuttoning the uniform blouse as she walked. Stopping at her Kurazakura, wedged in the bulk loading hatch, Chifuyu stripped off the remainder of the uniform. A slight chill crossed her newly exposed skin, raising goosebumps on all the exposed flesh. Handing off the clothes to Major Tomlinson, Chifuyu noticed him trying hard not to stare at her IS suit. “I won’t bite, Major. You can look if you want.”
Tomlinson averted his face a bit harder, trying to grab onto the clothes without staring at Chifuyu. “You might not bite, Ms. Orimura, but my wife sure as hell will when I tell her about ogling a younger woman in a revealing outfit.”
Laughing at the comment, Chifuyu broke into a real smile. “Guess it’s too late to ask, but what unit are you with?”
A small professional grin, wolfish and vicious broke his face now. “I’m Major Paul Tomlinson, 4th squadron, Australian Special Air Service Regiment.”
Chifuyu paused a moment in her power-up sequence as she caught his unit designation. “SAS? Odd thing to be working with the Germans isn’t it?”
“Sure, but when you care the very best to make sure it’s positively done right, you send the SAS. My unit draws the really odd jobs, even in our line of work.” Folding the uniform deftly, Tomlinson looked over at the woman now settled comfortably on her warhorse. “It will take our boats approximately forty minutes to make the approach to the island. Your IS can do it in what, four minutes?”
Nodding at the professional talk, Chifuyu flexed her hands in the gloves, testing the connection. Watching the IS hands mimic her motion smooth as if they were her own hands, Chifuyu thought about the distance to cover. “If I go top speed, figure two minutes. Making a slow covert approach like this? Probably ten to twelve.”
“Okay, so we’ll call it twelve minutes. My radio callsign is Hammer, von Eich’s is Jager. I think for this, your call sign will be Valkyrie. When we start our attack I’ll signal you and you can deploy and go after the SAM sites. When we get word of your brother, we’ll relay that and I’ll try to have a couple of fire teams, including a medic, free to assist you.”
Any further conversation was cancelled by the speakers on the wall. “Now hear this, now hear this. All crew standby to surface. Deck detail to the midline hatch. SAS teams standby for deployment. Surfacing the ship in sixty seconds.”
Reaching up to Chifuyu, Major Tomlinson grabbed her hand in a solid warrior’s grip, his arm bent at the elbow. “Good luck, Chifuyu Orimua.”
Trying not to put any pressure on his hand, Chifuyu held the grip firmly as she looked down into his eyes. “Good hunting, Paul Tomlinson.”
Breaking the grip, Major Tomlinson moved off into the missile bay, disappearing from sight by the troops lining up in formation. Chifuyu watched in appreciation as the troopers did their final checks for a moment before she heard a heavy clank above her. Glancing up, she watched the hatch start to open, guided by a pair of sailors wearing life jackets. Engaging her PIC, she carefully pulled herself up and out of the hatch into the open air. A quick burst from her thrusters jetted her a comfortable distance from the deck, the waves of the ocean lapping at her metal feet. The sailors disappeared into the hatch she just vacated, and within two minutes the boats were being assembled on the flat deck.
As the boats were being inflated, troopers started climbing out onto the deck with practiced easy motions. By the time the last trooper cleared the hatchway, the sixth boat was inflated and ready. Each group climbed into their assigned boat and pushed off, the motors turning over on the first try. As the zodiacs picked up speed, the submarine already had it’s deck awash with water, moving back to the safety of the depths.
Checking her IS’s clock, Chifuyu found the entire unloading had taken only ten minutes. Setting her IS into a tight float and letting the computer maintain her hover, she tried to relax as best she could. Stay strong Ichika-kun. Nee-san is coming to kick ass soon.
“Hammer to Valkyrie, you are free to deploy.” The radio crackled with static, interrupting Chifuyu’s reverie.
“Valkyrie to Hammer, acknowledged. Fast moving and incoming.” Kicking her Kurazakura up to full speed, the sudden burst pushed Chifuyu up fifty feet before she brought it back down to a sea skimming altitude. Banking hard onto the course provided, Chifuyu trailed one hand down to graze the water, noting the white caps created by her passing.
As soon as the island became a blob on her horizon, Chifuyu set her sensors to maximum. “Come on, where are those guns?”
A helpful arrow flashed on Chifuyu’s HUD, blinking for her priority. Drawing her Yukihira Nigata from it’s storage compartment, Chifuyu held it firmly in a two handed grip, the blade extending out across her right hip. Banking hard to the left, the arrow on her HUD now floated directly ahead of her. “Valkyrie to Hammer, engaging SAM one.”
A missile screamed out of the launcher five hundred meters ahead as Chifuyu crossed over the beach. Reacting instantly with reflexes honed from past battles, Chifuyu flipped her IS into a tight barrel roll, dragging one foot hard enough to kick the missile before the safety device disengaged. Her foot landed on the missile in the front third, changing the missile’s trajectory from a level surface to a downward angle. The missile slammed into the ground and detonated instantly, but Chifuyu did not notice that. She was already closing in on the launcher, her blade ignited now for it’s full killing power. Not even slowing down, she passed by the SAM, a quick adjustment of her hands slashing the blade through the launch cells. The solid fuel rockets started to burn instantly, but it was not until Chifuyu was one hundred meters away that the fire hit the warheads. The explosion barely registered to Chifuyu as she banked again, moving on to the second site.
“Valkyrie to Hammer, SAM one destroyed.”
The radio popped and crackled back. “Acknowledged Valkyrie.” A burst of gunfire came through the radio, the sounds seemingly close to him. “Valkyrie, be advised we have found your package.”
Repeating back the coordinates to confirm them, Chifuyu felt the tension drain from her shoulders. Ichika! Climbing into a turn, Chifuyu set her course towards her brother. Kurazakura responded at once, mimicking her desire to save Ichika with additional speed.
Finding the warehouse indicated with the coordinates, Chifuyu floated for just a moment above the building where Ichika was being held. Toggling Kurazakura’s sensors through multiple settings and modes, Chifuyu checked the building as thoroughly as her impatience would allow. Magnetic imaging shows a simple layout. Heat sources indicate three people external, four more inside and another person slightly separate. That’s probably Ichika-kun. Switching on her radio to a burst of static, Chifuyu checked the frequency again. “Valkyrie to Hammer, how close is your support?”
The news that came back was not promising. “Valkyrie, I have one team closing on your location, four mikes out. It’s all I could spare.”
Nodding her head slightly at the bad news, Chifuyu inverted her IS. “Acknowledged. I’m picking up my package now, could use the help cleaning up when you can.”
Igniting her thrusters to maximum, Chifuyu dived fast at the closest heat sources; a hawk striking down at speeds in excess of three hundred miles per hour. Lacking any whistle to announce her presence, the sentries were easy prey for her. Breaking at the last instant before impacting the ground, Chifuyu practically materialized near the trio of guards. The first one was dealt with by a brutal axe-swing of her Yukihira Nigata, the unpowered metal blade crushing the guard’s collarbone and driving him to the ground. Spinning on her thrusters, the second guard fell to a horizontal slash to his head, while the third got a kick from her metal foot. The force of the kick threw the guard into the next warehouse, but the building did not stop his impact as he went through the thin steel wall with a shriek of tearing metal.
That was easy enough. Even as those words went through Chifuyu’s mind, bullets started to impact Kurazakura from the rear to the accompaniment of gunfire. The shields deployed instantly, preventing any penetration as she turned to face her new attackers. Chifuyu did not have time to finish the turn before an explosion went off behind her, knocking her IS forward.
Rolling with the force of the explosion, Chifuyu braced hard on her left leg as a second and a third immediately rocked her. Each explosion ate chunks out of her shields, but Chifuyu was not going to let that stop her from getting to Ichika. Kurazakura flashed a secondary image on her HUD, showing a military grenade launcher with rotary drum. Kicking her thrusters into a full power ascent, the next explosion went off well beneath her feet.
Keeping the climb for only a scant pair of seconds, Chifuyu rolled and positioned her main thrusters to the sky, giving her a fast drop onto the group of four. Targeting the grenadier first, she dived on him at full speed, her altimeter flashed warnings as the ground rushed up to meet her. A second guard tried to bring up a big machine gun to track her, but Chifuyu’s speed and the big gun’s recoil destroyed his aim. As she descended on the grenadier, Chifuyu grabbed the launcher with her left hand and wrenched it aside while throwing a punch with her right. The metal fist, wrapped tightly around her sword’s hilt, connected solidly with the grenadier’s chest. Four ribs instantly broke from the brutal force of the punch, while the remaining three cracked. Grabbing the grenade launcher in her left hand, Chifuyu closed her fist on the gun, warping the hot barrel beyond use.
The machine gunner lined up his aim and held the trigger. A strong enough man, he tried to hold the gun as he had seen in so many action movies. The first fifteen rounds of the burst were on target, the bullets flickering as they bounced off her shields. The gun’s recoil ruined his aim again as he lost control and the weapon continued to jerk in his hands. Trying to shift his feet to maintain control, he instead lost his footing and fell.
The big machine gun continued it’s throaty roar as it’s owner landed on his back. The barrel went off target and tracked across the third guard in the group. He jerked and twitched as the large caliber rounds crossed through his body, dead before he even knew he was in danger. The fourth guard careened as his former friend’s body landed on him, pushing both of them to the ground.
Chifuyu took advantage of the momentary distraction to slide over and grab the machine gun. Taking the gun in both hands, she twisted it in opposite directions, snapping the gun lin half. A quick jab to the side of the gunner’s head put him out of the fight.
The last guard pushed his dead compatriot off and started to get his feet under him. Seeing the motion, Chifuyu glanced up from her stance on top of the fallen machine gunner. “Look, you have two choices. Option one, you start running and I let you go, because I’m only here for your prisoner. Option two, you make a move and I drop you like I do all your friends here. So make your choice.”
The guard blinked hard for an instant, then dropped his gun and started running. Chifuyu nodded her head as she watched him run. “Good choice.”
Turning towards the warehouse, Chifuyu checked her thermal imaging again. Grabbing her Nigata from where it lay on the ground, she ignited the blade one last time. Slashing easily through the cheap steel walls, she made a hole easily big enough to get her IS through it. The first set of walls revealed an interior set of walls, thicker and reinforced. Pounding on the walls with her metal hand, Chifuyu called out loudly. “Ichika, get away from the wall!”
Seeing a slight shift in the thermal image, Chifuyu slammed her energy blade into the wall. The metal resisted momentarily at the hellish assault before parting. Withdrawing the blade, Chifuyu grabbed the cut sections with her hands and pulled the wall open.
Lying against the far side, tied to a chair, was Ichika. His face was covered in caked blood and a mass of bruises. Dirty light colored clothes draped his body, with a couple of tears open showing bandages underneath them. “Chifuyu-nee” he exclaimed, seeing his sister’s IS framed in light from the outside.
Pulling the ropes off of Ichika’s body, Chifuyu felt her eyes start to water. “Yeah, nee-chan is here. It’ll be okay now.”
Lifting Ichika through the holes she had cut, Chifuyu set him down lightly on the ground outside. Fussing over his wounds, she looked up to her left see a handful of soldiers running towards them. Noting the uniforms from Tomlinson’s unit, she shifted Kurazakura’s position slightly to show them that things were under control.
The first gunshot rang out as Chifuyu was looking at Ichika; a red stain appeared on the left side of his chest. Four more shots followed, creating two more hits to Ichika’s chest, one higher than the other. Snapping her head to the right, Chifuyu saw the grenadier holding a pistol one-handed, the weapon locked empty. Dropping Ichika to the ground, she fired a quick burst from her thrusters and slammed into the grenadier. A medic ran towards Ichika and started digging into his pack for necessary tools.
Placing both of his arms in one metal hand, Chifuyu yanked the grenadier off the ground and stretched him out in front of her. Tears blurring her vision, Chifuyu slapped his face with a open slap from her left hand. “TELL ME WHY YOU DID THAT!” she bellowed, rage engulfing her mind.
The grenadier choked out a gasp, the pain from his broken ribs excruciating. “Had...orders...” he panted between breaths. “Kill...kid...if we lost him.”
Chifuyu’s left hand stopped mid-strike, paused to deliver another blow. “Orders? ORDERS?! WHO GAVE YOU THE ORDERS?! TELL ME! TELL ME! TELL ME!” Each word was punctuated with another blow, metal-shod hands making sickly sounds from each strike. One hand came back in a bloody arc, the splatter flying onto Chifuyu’s face.
A gloved hand reached out and grabbed onto her shoulder in between blows. Major Tomlinson kept his voice strong to pierce through Chifuyu’s rage. “Enough. He can’t tell you what you want to know.”
The grenadier’s head was split open, blood gushing onto the dirt. His chest was misshapen, the bones sticking out at a series of unnatural angles. There was only a little movement from the grenadier as he struggled to draw the next breath into a tortured body. Chifuyu stopped and looked in horror at her handiwork, her face going ashen with shock.
Paul Tomlinson had seen all this before in his ten years of special operations work, and more. He tried to keep his tone strong, but his voice still broke with his next words. “You should go be with your brother. It....doesn’t look good.”
Dismounting from Kurazakura, Chifuyu ran back to Ichika’s prone form. The medic, working furiously to save Ichika, barely even noticed her arrival. Chifuyu grabbed Ichika’s free arm as she stroked his face. “Ichika-kun I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. I didn’t think and I made a mistake.”
Crying now, Chifuyu leaned over Ichika’s face with her own, her long hair forming a curtain for the two of them. “You have to hold on Ichika, you have to be strong for me. You’ll get through this, but you have to be strong. I know it hurts, but you’ll get through this.”
Ichika’s eyes drifted in and out of focus as the medic worked to stabilize him. “Chifuyu-chan?”
Chifuyu tried to smile as she talked to Ichika. “That’s right Ichika, it’s Chifuyu-chan. Just be strong for me, PLEASE. Just don’t leave me alone!”
His eyes drooping and unfocused, Ichika took a shallow breath. “Sorry, Chifuyu-chan. I don’t think I can be strong for you.”
Chifuyu felt the tension in the hand she gripped decrease. “ICHIKA! ICHIKAAAA!” Pulling his body up close to her in a final embrace, Chifuyu felt her IS suit get stained with Ichika’s blood as his life faded away from him.
The funeral was a quiet, somber affair. There were only a handful of people in attendance to mark the passing of their friend. Chifuyu stood there in a dark suit, staring into the distance but not seeing anything. Her body went through the motions, but it was clear to everyone in attendance that she was not really at the funeral.
The service over, Chifuyu stood over her brother’s grave, finally alone. I’m alone now. Ichika is gone. Those two thoughts kept warring for dominance in her mind as she cried, the tears falling onto freshly overturned dirt.
Chifuyu was so lost in her grief the she did not hear the scuff of a foot on the path. Her tears kept coming, her grief continuing to build upon itself. It would have probably overwhelmed her then and there had not a voice broken through. “Orimura-san.”
Looking up, Chifuyu wiped at her eyes with her jacket sleeve. Turning her head, she saw a young girl, barely in her teens, standing at the edge of the grave while holding a bundle of flowers in her hands. Clothed in a black dress, her dark hair was pulled into a pair of ponytails by a green ribbon. Chifuyu blinked and searched her memory for the name of the face she barely recognized. “Houki-chan?”
Houki nodded, walking closer to the grave site. Kneeling without touching the ground, Houki carefully set the bundle of flowers onto the headstone of her friend. Standing up, Houki clapped her hands one and bowed her head, offering a silent prayer as all her time at her grandparent’s temple had taught her. Chifuyu closed her eyes and offered her own prayers, begging Ichika for his forgiveness once again.
Finishing her prayers, Chifuyu opened her eyes to find Houki facing her now. Houki’s young face was set into a mask of pain, but her eyes burned with anger. “Orimura-san, I need to know how Ichika died. I need you to tell me what happened.”
Chifuyu’s mouth opened once as she tried to start telling her story, but her voice failed her. Closing her mouth, she let her head hang forward in shame. Her voice came out as a whisper, barely reaching Houki. “Ichika died because of me. I killed him.”
Houki’s hands reached up to cover her mouth, her eyes growing wider with shock as the words clicked into her brain. Racing forward, she started to attack Chifuyu, her blows raining on the taller woman’s stomach and chest. Chifuyu just let the blows land, not moving to dodge or block them. A wordless scream ripped out of Houki’s lips, tears of rage and frustration forming in her eyes.
Her rage momentarily exhausted, Houki collapsed to the ground in front of Chifuyu. The older woman, not sure what to do, stood over her best friend’s sister as she cried. Houki took a deep breath and started to stand up, her body shaking from the exertion as she fought for control over herself.
Getting her feet unsteadily beneath her, Houki spun around and faced the headstone. Dragging her left hand across the polished granite edge, she pushed downward against the marker. The clean cut stone was not sharp, but it was enough to break the callused skin of her palm. Making a fist around the cut, Houki turned to face Chifuyu again. Blood trickled down between her fingers, splattering on the corner of Ichika’s tombstone.
Face calm and relaxed, Houki’s eyes blazed with rage as she raised her fist towards Chifuyu. “Chifuyu Orimura, I swear by my blood and on Ichika’s grave, one day I will get revenge on you for what you did to Ichika. When that day comes, I will avenge Ichika, and on that day, I will kill you.”
Turning and running towards the entrance of the cemetery, Houki failed to hear Chifuyu’s response. “Houki-chan, when that day comes, I’ll let you.”
