Chapter 47: Traitors?

Hammad was about to lose his temper at Alexander's casual attitude when he suddenly heard a soft roaring in the distance. The sound, though soft at first, was quickly becoming louder. He looked up in the sky towards where Alexander was looking and saw ten flaming balls shooting towards them at breakneck speed!

"Dodge!" was all he had time to shout before the ten flaming balls crashed into the ground before them, completely destroying the road and launching debris everywhere. A cloud of dust filled the air, but it was quickly blown away by a gust of wind, revealing ten tall, cylindrical pods. A hatch on one of them was kicked open, revealing a soldier, fully armored in black, synthetic gear. Immediately after, the other pods were opened as well, revealing the soldiers within. They all were dressed identically, and with a mask over their face, you would not be able to tell them apart if they weren't all carrying different weapons.
