《The White Rose》Chapter 7: Livvy
Advertisement
Dammit, what the hell was Amber thinking. Why make me the leader? I'm not competent enough. That’s exactly what caused this situation. Siren’s wailing, and I’ve heard enough sirens to know it wasn’t law enforcement, I couldn’t figure out who it was though since they all had hoods on. And, if that wasn’t enough, we were trapped in this rock prison.
My ability allows me to know everything that is currently happening within a mile of me. I don’t have to process it though, I just know it, which is very convenient. If I had to process everything, It wouldn’t help much now would it. “Alright, does anyone have an ability that can break us out of this?” I said, I knew my squad did not, recon has no reason for a highly destructive ability like that. “That should be our priority as of now. If we can’t get out of here, then we can get Mattie. Only one of us has to find him though, if we’re not all out he can help us.” Alright, pretty straightforward. I can’t see us failing, but if we do, it’d be my fault though and I don’t want Rose getting pissy at me.
“Ma’am, if I may?” Said Alric, the lieutenant of the demolition squad, he was acting as the commander since the previous commander is missing. “I can likely melt this place with my acid. However, it would take a bit to burn a whole that is big enough for all of us to fit through, even if we go one at a time. But if I made one small enough I could let someone small go get Mattie, however, by the time they got back I would probably be done.” His blue eyes and fair hair shined in the tiny bit of light that was let in. He was smart, but lacked confidence in his position. I don’t blame him, he was thrown into the role. I doubt he wanted the job but he took it. He was a lot like me if I were being brutally honest.

Truthfully, right now I just wanted to go to bed and curl up with my Chifuyu body pillow and sleep. I'm just really tired, but right now I need to get us out of this. “Alright, make a hole big enough for one person, that person will go get Mattie, tell him what’s going on, and stay with him. While they’re doing that you’ll keep making a whole, one big enough for everyone. And after we’re all out we can go meet up with Mattie.” I said, it was totally on whim, but the plan sounded solid. I didn’t know how small our smallest person was, however, I’m pretty sure they’re in Alric’s squad. So I’d let him take care of it. “Alright Alric, do your thing.” I said.
I walked over to one of the wall’s and slumped against and slid down. I just wanna go re-watch Tokyo Revengers. Hell, I’d settle for Jojo’s right now. I need to re-watch it before part 6 get’s animated anyway. I’ve already read the entire manga, but I haven't been able to get the last volume of Jojolion yet. It might not be out yet though since it finished like two months ago. It probably was. Well, whatever.
I didn’t realize I was sweating until I looked up and some sweat dripped into my eyes. “Ew, Gross!” I exclaimed. Everyone looked at me, but when I looked over to Alric, he seeed finished. “Alright Livvy, it’s done.” He said. “Also, it looks like Amber is already tending to Mattie.”
Well, that’s good but, “Amber need’s to help Rose fight those bastards. So our plan still applies. Unless Amber said otherwise. She outrank’s me so I can’t override her orders.” Actually, was there still fighting outside of this cage, I haven’t heard any screams, crashes, gunshots, or any of Rose’s sarcasm. But, I couldn’t worry about that right now. Rose could handle themselves.

Okay, everyone was filing out, I’ll go out last. I could go first, but I didn’t wanna get up. I stumbled to my feet, almost face planting into the hard ground. That would’ve been really embarrassing. I sighed and took a gun from it’s holster at my hip. I didn’t like using guns, I’d prefer knives but I don’t have any on me.
I inspected the 1911, it had all the bullets in the magazine. Good. Some people give me shit for still using a 1911, but I think it’s a good pistol, it can still kill just as well as it did in world war one and two. It’s a cool antique as well.
It’s also my symbol. All the squad leader’s get a symbol, most get it tattooed, but I did not, nor did Alric. The symbol they choose is their squad symbol as well. Rose’s is a rose, it’s enough of a cliche to be have our organization named after them, that we figured that the cliche wouldn’t really matter much. Amber’s is obviously just fire. And Mattie, who isn’t technically a member of The White Rose doesn’t have one.
He is already set to take the place of Amber if anything happens to Rose or Amber, so I don’t see why we can’t just induct him.
Alric actually did something pretty unconventional and asked everyone in his squad to draw up an idea and then they did a vote. Alric’s won, it was a “R.I.P” with explosive’s under it. It was meant to be a tribute to the former commander. Truthfully, we all know he’s dead, but Gideon was one of the founders, and Rose was devastated when they lost him in the field. So Alric technically is the actual commander, but Rose won’t promote him above “acting” commander because they’re worried that if Gideon ever came back he’d be pissed at giving his spot away. There were two issues with that, first, Gideon doesn’t get angry, and he would totally understand the situation. Secondly, Alric was already appointed commander by Gideon before he left, he was pretty sure he would die. But, it’s Rose, they’re a weird one all right.
I put the magazine back into the casing and cocked the pistol. After everyone was out I walked out, but before I could do so, I saw the trap. They knew. Dammit.
Everyone had fallen into anti-ability cages, so that’s why I couldn’t sense what was happening. The entire place is an anti-magic field. Damn. Well, I’m no use up here, so I picked up a knife that was dropped by someone, put my 1911 into it’s holster and jumped down into that infernal pit only 10 feet deep.

Author's note: this is going to be my take on the standard ecchi harem like To Love Ru, except there will be more action, and the male main wont be a pussy who doesn't know it when the girls are coming on to him. So expect the Main to be a man who can stand up for himself and those he loves, also sex, probably lots and lots of sex.
