Valkyrie Smash

When the gigantic beam of yellow light hit the northern parts of the south American continent, there was no sound or explosions. The air in thousands of miles was suddenly sucked toward a single point followed by a silent detonation and a flash of light as a powerful heatwave spread over the land erasing everything in its way.

From afar it appeared as if a second sun was expanding, swallowing everything painting the world in the red color of death. The fire would continue on for weeks, but once the initial impact receded a black hole was left visible even from the atmosphere. Scorched land that once made up a large portion of two countries.

Though no human soul was lost in that disaster everything else suffered greatly. Among them were the hundreds of Calamities awaiting orders along a few newly dispatched Nephilim and one of their most powerful weapons, Jotnar.

The giant devil like creature tried to escape its fate but was inevitably swallowed by the light. Once it all came to an end a motionless carcass fell to the ground; a bull headed human that lost its lower half, flames clinging to what's left of it as it reached out with one hand still trying to escape.

~[ ]~

As they stared at the blurry image of what can only be described as a devil trying to escape hell, Sam and the others couldn't help but keep their mouths shut.

It was an accident, all of it. Even so they somehow ended up destroying one of the enemies that kept them living in fear for an entire decade.

The three women turned to look at the one responsible for it, however Sam was still gawking at the screen unable to comprehend how it happened. Before anyone could say anything, Shizuru reached out with both hands and grabbed his face then without hesitation placed her lips on his.

As the other four stared at them in shock, the Asian girl backed away after a long kiss, her eyes tearing up as a big smile spread on her face.

''You did it!'' She said, confusing everyone even further. ''You really did it, Sam!''

Only when she said it did they all finally understand the significance of this event. Even if it was just an accident this marks another one of humanity's biggest victories against the Calamities, the second one since Jörmungandr. This time, however, no sacrifices have been made. Not a single Valkyrie was lost in battle, and even though the negative effects will torment them for a long while, an achievement of this level was something worth being thrilled about.

Elina got up from her chair and started hopping around and tears started flowing from Alice's eyes. Still in a state of disbelief, Sam stood up and embraced his girlfriends. As they cried tears of happiness in his arms the man turned his eyes to the screen.

''To think you would actually do it.'' Alice said trying to compose herself. ''When you said you'll make something that surpasses the Valkyries I was skeptical, but now...''

''I never doubted him for a moment!'' Shizuru said, proudly puffing her chest. ''Well, I would be lying if I said I knew it'll happen this soon.''

When he declared that he would create a weapon that surpasses the Valkyries Sam had asked the everyone for time. Whether it's those who believed him or those who didn't, no one could've predicted that he would somehow make it in less than five days.

Sam himself was having difficulties believing what he did. The beam created by Torso's purple giants was powerful, but not to the extent that it could destroy entire countries. Seeing how different it turned out when he tried to copy it meant that there are multiple factors affecting the outcome of a formation beside the shape of the runes.

''Hmph! I never doubted that Doctor would lead us to Victory.'' The one speaking was Miku.

She had been standing at a distance along with B3 performing their duty as body guards, but now she was walking over toward Sam and the others her head held high with a big smile on her face. Her expression took a dramatic change as she came to a stop in front of Shizuru.

"Anyway!" Pointing a finger at the Asian girl, the petite blond Valkyrie spoke in a rather confrontational tone. "You, who do you think you are, getting close to Doctor like that?''

''Eh?'' taken aback, blinked repeatedly and pointed at herself.

''The only ones allowed to kiss Doctor are his lovers and personal Valkyries!'' Miku went on, having already decided that she was an enemy. ''Even if he's so amazing that you fell for him right away, you can't just do what you want!''

For a moment everyone couldn't help but stare at the young Valkyrie who, despite having witnessed one of humanity's biggest victories, was more concerned by another woman kissing her beloved Doctor.

Realizing she was the target of jealousy Shizuru played innocence, tilting her head a little as she delivered a devastating blow to the petite blond.

''I'm his girlfriend though.'' She deadpanned. ''We have been lovers for quite a while.''

Clearly not expecting that response, Miku took a step back looking at the female soldier with a pale face. First it was the one with the ponytail, then the tanned one with brown hair. One after the other they keep stealing the Doctor's attention, and as if Valkyries weren't enough now humans were trying to get his affection as well.

Spotting Sam in the corner of her eye Miku turned to him with tearful eyes.

''Doctor! How many partners do you have!?'' She asked, on the verge of crying. ''You already have four personal Valkyries! What would you need humans for!!?''

''Uh-oh...'' catching on pretty quickly Elina backed away and watched the show with a smile.

Alice, having already given up on forcing him to stay away from the Valkyries, could only sigh and shake her head in disappointment.

''This really isn't the time, Miku...'' Sam sighed as well, holding a hand to his head feeling like it's about to split.

''Exactly!'' Miku retorted. ''You are always so busy you barely have any free time, and when you do, you always spend it with someone else!'' Clenching her fists, the young Valkyrie decided to drop a devastating bomb, though she didn't know it herself. ''Even though I've been looking forward to being with you, you sent me away then spent the entire night doing it with that Zero Three!!!''

A sudden chill enveloped the lab. Feeling the danger, Sam's eyes slowly moved in Shizuru's direction.

"Oh my~♡, I think my ears are playing tricks on me."

Elina backed away even more, taking place beside B3 who looked equally as terrified. Feeling something was off Miku stopped crying. The moment she looked up a chill ran down her spine as she came face to face with Shizuru.

Though she had a smile on, it was clear that the Asian girl wasn't happy. Though she knew she had no reason to fear a human, for some reason Miku felt that her life was in danger. She turned to Sam for help but was surprised to see him completely white as his soul slowly left his body.

"Shizuru, I know this isn't my place to say this, but…" though she didn't seem the least bit happy about it, Alice decided to offer her assistance. "This matter is more complicated than it seems. Considering our current situation, I think it would be wise to leave it until things become more stable."

A couple of seconds pass as everyone waited in silence. Heaving a long sigh, the terrifying aura surrounding Shizuru dissipated as she placed a hand on her cheek.

"Well, I knew this would happen eventually." She said, wearing a conflicted expression. "They knew him for as long as I did, it's only natural that they would fall for him at some point." Turning to face her lover, she looked at him through half lid eyes, the corners of her thin lips pointing downward. "You sure are lucky today, huh, Sam? If you didn't become the greatest man alive this would've gone in a completely different direction."

Feeling the lack of anger in her voice, life returned to Sam. He met her eyes for a moment then lowered his head.

"I'll make sure to apologize properly later so…"

"Then you better find a way to win this war." Saying those words, Shizuru turned to face Alice. "Since we now know the enemy isn't just some mindless monsters, I'm afraid that they'll take what happened as us firing the first bullet."

"... y-yes, most likely…" The white haired beauty was speechless for a moment, however when she saw her friend's serious expression she remembered that this wasn't the time for games. "I doubt they will remain silent after what happened."

"Yes. We will need to explain the situation to the other soldiers, inform the other bases and prepare for the upcoming battle." Puting her hand up in a salute, Shizuru added with utmost seriousness. "Commander, as a part of the surveillance division I would like to return to my post and resume my work."

"... understood…"

Glancing in Sam's direction one more time, Alice closed her eyes and let out a sigh.

"We don't have much time. Turn your new weapon into something usable before the enemy arrives."

"... yes ma'am…" Sam replied, unable to lift his head up.

As Alice and Shizuru left the lab, he couldn't help but stare at their back. He was stunned for a couple of seconds until he heard Elina's mocking voice coming from behind.

"Things aren't looking good for you, huh?"

"Shut it."
