25 - Just Two

"Hurry, this noise is not natural, we have already sent 2 groups, but apparently the damage of the invaders was great, we do not know how many people are, but they are apparently powerful." My captain shouted orders while we were asleep, getting dressed and preparing to go for backup.

From what I understood, a group came in and began to blow up all the protective doors made of metal that protected each floor underground as if they were made of cardboard. To do this they probably had some contact here and were already prepared for it, quite possibly bringing the necessary equipment to break in so easily, but what I wonder is, what is this equipment that breaks in several metal doors so easily?

After I finished equipping myself, my captain already formed our group and sent us as reinforcements since the noises had apparently stopped, indicating that either the equipment these invaders were using had finally broken down, or that these people had reached the top floor underground.

From what I hear, we're the fifth group of five soldiers to be sent. The previous four groups were still coming down the stairs at full speed while keeping at least the minimum of caution for any trap these invaders might have left, but to me this was irrelevant as 20 people had already passed through this route enabling us to get down without worrying about anything.

With every floor I passed, I began to notice that the metal doors had strange deformities where they had been broken into, as if... a person had broken in with his own body... but quickly I shook my head in denial. Looking at the thickness of the door, it was impossible for a human to do this with the door, I doubt even the captain of America could break in with his own body in this way, probably the tool they used was just a strange shape.

The more our group went down, the stranger the noises became. From afar I could first hear some cries from other men to these invaders, things like "Kill these sons of bitches!" or "You came to die!" was often heard when some new group arrived, but strangely, every time before a new group arrived cries like "What the fuck?" or "They're demons!" were heard by the same men who screamed when they arrived.

Which for me was not a good sign. Even some groans accompanied by a noise on the wall were heard, which I imagined were people being thrown into the wall, making me even more worried. When I looked away, I noticed that my companions also had the same disturbed look on their faces as me.

Unfortunately, it was too late. When we got to the top floor, what I saw with my eyes made my heart stop for a minute. I am one of the few men here who is infiltrated by Hydra, so bloody scenes of battles and murders have never been anything unusual for me, but what I was witnessing now was something completely different to what I had ever seen in my life.

Instead of the image of a team of at least ten people that I imagined standing still fighting against us, what I found were two demons, that was the only definition that fit both of them... I don't know if they were small adults or teenagers, but they were definitely killing people like dolls. 

One of them had black eyes with the red iris that I could vaguely see through the sunglasses he wore, while shooting cards as if they were grenades at a speed that rivaled a pistol, while the other... the other was the one who was most afraid... he had eyes that glowed red as if he were Lucifer himself, each movement he made was a blur that appeared soon followed by a cry of regret from those who had been hit by his punch.

Afraid of those bright red eyes, I didn't control my finger and pulled the trigger on my Uzi... I can say I've never regretted an action like that so much. The shots hit the leather jacket or blue shirt he wore underneath, but apparently did not pierce his skin deeply, with some even being ricocheted back to the ground.

But what came next, if I could tell that story to someone else someday, made me piss my pants. Those bright red eyes came at me and stared back at me like they said. "Did you really have the courage to do that?" The next second I just saw him coming towards me like a locomotive and hitting me with everything before my back hit the wall behind me and making me fall to the ground with difficulty breathing while some rusting liquid came out of my mouth, which I soon guessed was blood.

After that my memory just boils down to little flashes, where one hour the demon with the bright eyes hit the soldier next to me, the next second he jumped back and a card exploded between my comrades sending each one in a different direction even burning part of the flesh of who was closest to the explosion.

In my last moments, the only thing I could think of was. "Hail Hydra." While I was imagining Winter Soldier showing up and killing those two idiots.
