Adopted Soldier Chapter 44

Chapter 44
Alex headed straight for the place he planned to snipe from, the other members also started to do their own thing .
. . .
Rachel and Saya have teamed up as they dashed towards the hallway of the second years . This was the place where they saw Lyner run towards, and like they thought Lyner was there standing with a smug expression on his face .
"So it's you girls first let's see what you can do . " Lyner gestured with hands saying to bring it . Saya with an excited expression charged forward, Rachel backed her up by firing an arrow with a wooden head .
The arrow reached first, Lyner evaded it easily by tilting his head, but right after the arrow passed through, Saya swung her shinai downwards, Lyner once again simply evaded by moving one step backwards . Saya already knew he would do this so she threw a needle from her hands, Lyner tilted his whole body sideways to evade, but once he did this another arrow came flying towards him which made him sidestep . The girls didn't give him the chance to take a breather . Saya kept on pressing on her attack,s using her shinai and hidden weapons, with the support from Rachel they were doing quite well . . . Yet no matter how much they attacked they just couldn't hit Lyner who was now even yawning .
Finally Rachel was out of arrows, and Saya had no more needles to throw . Also even though the whole fight only lasted a few minutes Saya was now breathing heavily . The pressure Lyner was emitting in close range was immense which made it very difficult for Saya who was fighting him up close .
"You guys have good coordination, well good enough for little girls who live peaceful lives . . . That is except for you" Lyner looked at Saya . "You seem to have your own share of experiences . "
Saya hearing Lyner's comment about her family's secret life smiled slyly, but she couldn't reply since she was so tired at the moment .
"You on the other hand seem more fit for hand to hand combat, based on the way you present yourself, so I'm confused as to why your using a bow . . . " Lyner looked at Rachel a bit confused . Rachel could only look elsewhere since Lyner's eyes seem like they could very well look into ones soul .
"Well I have seen enough of your abilities, so I guess it's good night for now . " Lyner moved suddenly, both Rachel and Saya saw him suddenly disappear from their sights .
Lyner was already behind Saya, and in front of Rachel . Lyner hit Saya on the back of her neck using a chop of his hand, with the exact force needed to render her unconscious . He was then about to do the same to Rachel when he suddenly evaded .
BANG!
Something pierced through the window, it was a 7 . 62x63mm bullet . 'The kid actually used a real bullet, heh . . . He's seriously trying to protect that girl . ' Lyner smiled as he backed away .
"Hey girl bring your friend outside, its going to get rowdy in here . " Rachel who was in a daze heard what Lyner said, and simply nodded as she carried Saya out of the premise .
Lyner on the other hand was running to a different location where Alex couldn't snipe him .
. . .
Niel was simply running around the school building trying to look for Lyner without any clue as to where he went . Niel simply believed that his luck which was also a gift from God could easily make him meet Lyner . As if following his expectations Lyner appeared in front of him near the stairs going to the old school building's rooftop .
"We meet at last Mr . Lyner . " After greeting the teacher politely, Niel took a boxer's stance . Lyner who was looking at Niel's stance and his body type smiled viciously at Niel . 'A born genius . . . No effort was given to have those kind of muscles, he simply has it . His defense as a boxer might make even some newborn pros feel inadequate . This club and it's members seem interesting enough, but let's see what they truly got . '
Niel noticed that Lyner was contemplating something which gave him the opening he needed . Niel stepped in Lyner's range, and unleashed a one, two combination . A Blindingly fast jab and then a perfectly timed cross . This attack of Niel was actually faster than Saya's sword, yet Lyner easily evaded, and is if to mock Niel, Lyner took the same boxer's stance .
'Interesting . ' Instead of getting angry, Niel was actually smiling brighter than he ever has . Niel Rayheart had never given any effort to anything he did, since no matter what he does, he would always succeed . So Niel was always bored beyond belief, the feeling of success was nothing to Niel since he always wins . Yet now right here, standing in front of him was a person his natural talent can't simply surpass . Niel finally showed a true smile coming from his excitement a true vicious smile .
Lyner also felt a bit excited and smiled as well . 'This club is nuts, all of them seem battle oriented . Who knew there where many kids in this school that actually feel like they belong in the battlefield . This kid in particular, he stinks of one of those pampered kids, but at the same he has the insane craze look of a battle junkie . '
Niel stepped in, and started attacking Lyner who evaded by weaving his head . As the fight continued Lyner noticed that Niel's attacks where getting faster and sharper . The kid before him was evolving right in front of him . The natural talent of this kid was crazy . When Lyner was distracted by Niel's fast improvement, Niel suddenly kicked . It caught Lyner by surprise but he was still able to evade . That kick was a front kick, a kick boxers uses . 'So this time he's going to use kick boxing? Fine then show me everything you got . As a teacher of this school let me properly guide you . '
While they were fighting Alex was actually supporting Niel by sniping, but even using ricochet shots didn't work . Alex determined that long range sniping won't work on this opponent . The opponent was also able to easily evade all the traps that were set .
Alex concluded that Plan A failed . He then calmly proceeded to plan B . Alex opened the briefcase he brought and took out two handguns that were specially customized for him, a MRI Desert Eagle and a customized Colt Government Model M1911A1 .
Alex proceeded to head towards the rooftop of the old school building .
