Explosions and gunfire now rocked the western front of the kitsune kingdom. Bodies lay strewn amongst the rubble, both human and kitsune warriors begging for help as they bleed out on the streets. Standing tall amongst those bodies stood two kintaro.
"Is that the best you got," Haley exclaimed as she now launched a Normal soldier at his compatriots. "I thought you guys knew how to fight!"
"Haley sit down!"
Haley turned, a frown on the Amazonian tigress hybrids face as she glared at her twin brother. "What," she exclaimed. "You never heard of a war cry? Geez you've spent too many years hunting demons Aaron."
Aaron simply rolled his eyes, the red kitsune hybrid returning fire at the approaching Normal soldiers. "War cries are one thing sis," he exclaimed. "Dying like an idiot is a completely different story now get your big jade ass over here!"
Haley groaned, leaping behind the rubble Aaron was useing as cover. The two kintaro had come to visit their grandparents when the Normal attacked. Never ones to shy away from a fight the twins immediately threw themselves into the fight, along with the half dozen kintaro that they were traveling with. Now only they remained.
"Never thought we'd go out like this Haley," Aaron chuckled as he reloaded his gun.
"Hey we ain't dead yet," Haley exclaimed.
Aaron simply raised an eyebrow as he studied the his sister. The twins had watched kitsune soldiers, their kintaro brothers, all fall before the hoards of soldiers advancing through the city. "Screw it," Aaron smirked. "Our moms didn't raise quiters."
Sharing a nod the twins now stood, looking to make a final stand only to be shocked by a kitsune warrior sprinting forward with some very unlikely allies.
"Akira?"
The six tail kitsune glanced back at the twins in surprise. "Aaron, Haley what are you doing here?"
"We were going to visit gamma and gramps til these assholes showed up," Haley stated. "Whatvare you doing here and who are the new guys?"
"My niece Misaki, her friend Crystal and Misaki's maid droid Ren."
"Huh neat," Aaron said. "So any ideas?"
An mortar explosion nearby now caused Akira to shield himself as he studied the battlefield. They were being overrun, strategically it made more sense to withdraw and find other survivors to to formulate a proper counter attack. Unfortunately he wasn't counting on the twins.
"We should withdraw," he stated. "Find better positioning to mount an offensive."
"Boring," Haley groaned. "I got a better idea." Without warning the jade tigress lept from her position, charging group of soldiers. Swinging her Warhammer wildly the tigress hybrid sent bodies sailing.
"Haley's not good with retreats," Aaron sighed as he now orovides cover fire.
Akira simply shook his head, as he was turning towards Misaki, Ren, and Crystal he was stunned to see all three racing after Haley.
Misaki was firing off spells, performing physical attacks on the Normal. Crystal shrank down to fairy size, darting in between soldiers effectively covering both Misaki and Haley while taking down soldiers of her own. Even the gynoid Ren was now involved, Akira seeing first hand the small arms and explosives the Yakuza owned droid possessed as she attacked.
"Kids," Akira sighed, withdrawing his kitana as he unleashed several spells at the approaching Normal. For the moment the kitsune would assist in defending the western front, hoping this act of courage would not be a fools errand.
