Undead Rescue
Flagg inspected the ground, something definitely happened, right next to Bride's footprints is a body-shaped hole that Flagg guessed was made by a collapsed Bride. Whatever Shade did, he just beat their two powerhouses and took them prisoner.
"Flagg, what we do?" Nina asked, worry clear in her voice. Dammit! Those two were pinnacle in taking down the League of Shadows, Bride's experience and Grundy's brute strength would've given them a massive edge.
Flagg sighed as he wiped his hand over his face.
"Alright, Commandos, new orders!" Flagg yells, "Mission is still the same, but now we have the additional part of rescuing our comrades!"
G.I.Robot's eyes flickered.
"G.I.Robot's calculations read a 96.8% of all of us dying if we focus on rescuing our comrades over fulfilling the mission!" G.I. states with saddened visors. Flagg marched right up to G.I. and looked him right in his optics.
"And if it was a member of your old unit, Easy Company?" Flagg hated usi g tactics like this, but he knew G.I. held those memories with Easy Company to heart, or whatever counts as a heart for a sentient robot.
G.I.'s optics flashed again.
"G.I.Robot calculates an 80% chance of failure, yet a 20% chance of success." Flagg knew those weren't ideal, but a soldier never leaves a man behind, and G.I.Robot was still a soldier.
"I'm sure Easy Company would've taken those odds, so will we!" Flagg announced, "We'll have to split up into teams, one team causes a distraction while the other gets to our comrades!"
"I'll go on the team that saves our friends!" Nina immediately volunteers.
"G.I.Robot wishes to accompany Nina in saving our comrades, but G.I. would be more suited for distraction!" G.I. states as he readies his rifle arm.
"I guess I could Nina in getting the others out," Phosphorus says, "that way, we won't need a key to get them out."
Flagg knew the real reason, it was Bride and Phosphorus who were there when Nina first died, and if the general guessed right, Phosphorus feels just as responsible as Bride. He wasn't volunteering to rescue their teammates, but to protect Nina.
"Alright, G.I. and I will cause a distraction, the rest get our powerhouses free to give us more of an edge! We clear!"
"Yes sir!" Everyone agrees.
-Inside the Stronghold of the League of Shadows-
Bride's eyes fluttered opened as she groaned, soon noticing how she was unable to move her hands. She looks up to see her wrists bound by chains, and as she looked down, she saw the same thing happened to her ankles.
"Normally, when I greet someone I haven't seen in a long time, they're elderly and can hardly remember me....." A voice Bride remembers too well, "Yet I suppose I should've expected to see you again, not effected by time."
Bride says nothing as Ra's appeared, seemingly right from the shadows like a ghost.
"The exact reason I sought you out all those decades ago. I was hoping Victor Frankenstein's work could provide a replacement for the Lazarus Pits." Ra's continues as he approaches a pissed off looking Bride, "Sadly.......it seems your creator's work didn't align with my goals, so I tried to have-"
He was interrupted when Bride spit right in his face on his cheek. Ra's didn't bat an eye or even became enraged when she did it, merely paused to wipe the spit of his face.
"Obviously, the assassins I sent weren't as effetient as I hoped." Ra's then predates around Bride, "I can already guess your comrades are planning on your rescue. Seems strange Waller actually formed a team that actually cares for one another, but none the less.......the League of Shadows are ready for them."
Bride simply glares at Ra's.
"Believe me, the only one I see no reason to kill would be that one female you seem to hold quite dearly. None the less, one of my disciples wishes to fight you, and he plans to kill her to motivate you. I find it grotesque and barbaric, one of the reasons he'll never be my successor."
"If any of your pajama wearing, necrophilia's so much as harm a scale or fin on her, I'll kill you all extremely painfully and extremely slowly......"
If her threat frightened Ra's, he didn't show it. He simply walked over to a wooden table and picked up a picture frame that had the picture of a young and very beautiful female.
"I don't blame your reaction, my dear. If my daughter were still alive, I'd introduce her attacker to a new level of Hell......." Ra's somberly closed his eyes as he put the picture back on the table, "which I actually hope to do to her killer one day. I am sorry to have dragged your love into this.......but in order for the new world to be shaped, sacrifices must be made."
Ra's walked away from a struggling Bride, who was trying to break her restraints to no avail. She was soon all alone......thinking only about Nina and hoping she was safe.
-With the Commandos-
The Commandos stayed low as they reached the stronghold. Flagg took out a pair of binoculars to see anything worth noting......
"Guards up on the walls, stone walls I have no doubt are reinforced......" Flagg noted out loud for the team.
"Any idea where Bride and Grundy might be?" Nina asked, desperate to save her girlfriend and Grundy. Flagg thought for a moment until.....
"G.I., use your heat sensor, but look for the lowest heat signatures!" G.I. saluted Flagg before focusing his optics......
Everyone in the stronghold looked like heated silhouettes to him.
"G.I.Robot's sensors detect many guards and assassins, none of which were the known assassins listed to the Commandos.....wait!" The war automaton focused his gaze with more intensity at one of the towers, "G.I.Robot believes he has found friend Bride and friend Grundy at the Northeast tower!"
Flagg nodded, "Alright, G.I., you attack from the front, guns blazing. I'll cover you, Nina and Phosphorus, use the confusion to sneak around, maybe find an entrance only Ra's uses. Find our teammates, get them free and we can bring an end to the League of Shadows. Everyone ready?"
"Roger!" G.I.Robot saluted.
"If we survive this shitstorm, let me have a week off this shit....." Phosphorus responded.
"Bride and Grundy are in there and they need us, we don't have much choice!" Nina stated, trying to sound confident.
"Alright team, we get our teammates and finish the mission!" Flagg orders.
