30. Interception
The sun had barely risen when me, Iu, and Iris set off in our rented jeep, embarking on our journey deep into the Amazon. The dense vegetation seemed to swallow them whole as we navigated the treacherous terrain. The air was thick with humidity, and the sounds of wildlife echoed all around us.
As we traveled deeper into the jungle, we spotted a group of people dressed in dark robes with the cult's tattoo markings on their arms. They were loading up a van with several bound and gagged individuals who appeared to be captives. I immediately slowed the jeep to a halt, taking cover behind the thick foliage to observe the scene.
Iu's eyes narrowed as she assessed the situation. "They must be taking those people to their main base."
I nodded in agreement. "We need a plan. We can't just charge in there without knowing what we're up against."
The three of us took a moment to analyze the situation further. We noticed that the cult members were heavily armed, and there seemed to be guards stationed around the perimeter of the clearing. There was no easy way to approach without being spotted.
Iris, although not fully understanding the gravity of the situation, sensed the tension in her companions. She gripped my arm, her eyes filled with concern.
I considered our options, then looked at Iu and Iris and spoke:
"Alright, here's the plan. Iris, you will stand in the middle of the road as bait and me and Iu will sneak up from behind."
Iris hesitated for a moment, then nodded her understanding. She moved forward cautiously, stepping out into the clearing. Her striking appearance quickly caught the attention of the cult members, who momentarily forgot their task and stared at her in awe.
Meanwhile, me and Iu exchanged a determined glance before I slipped away, circling around the clearing to position myself behind the cult members.
As the cult members continued to gawk at Iris, she feigned vulnerability, appearing to be lost and frightened. She moved closer to the van, drawing the cultists' attention further away from their captives.
Seizing the opportunity, I burst from his hiding spot behind the cult members, using my demonic strength to quickly overpower two of the guards. The element of surprise was on my side, and the cultists were momentarily disoriented by the sudden attack.
Iu, sensing the chaos, joined the fray, using her powers to throw several cult members off balance and incapacitate them. The captives took advantage of the confusion to struggle against their bonds, trying to break free.
In the midst of the chaos, Iris used her android strength to break the chains and ropes that held the captives, assisting them in their escape. With each person she freed, she gestured towards the safety of the jungle, urging them to flee.
The cult members, realizing they were under attack, attempted to regroup and counter me and Iu's assault. But their resistance was futile, Iu knocked one into the tree so hard, she ended up encrusting him into the tree. Poor guy died 3 times there at least.
After making sure all the cultist were dead, I turned to Iu and Iris and said:
"Good work justice trio!"
Iu rolled her eyes, while Iris stared at me blanky.
"Alright, Ik that was a bad one. Let's just gtfo." I said.
Q: What do you think of the Justice League from DC?
