Chapter Text
Elina was busy concocting more napalm for herself, no one but herself, the ingredients, and some orange juice. It wasn’t a hard thing to do all things considered, though she wished the others weren’t so wasteful with their limited supply of gasoline.
It was no big deal though, plenty of it to go around for a few more months, though the group will have to raid more areas for that, maybe she can enlist her-
“Hey! What you up to?” Elina jumped and spilled some gas on the ground causing her to groan. She turned around to see Cellina tilting her head at her.
“Just making some more napalm, why do you need some?” Elina asked with a tired and irritated tone.
Cellina shook her head, “No just curious, how do you make it so effective?”
Elina went back picking up the spilled gas and placing the rest inside the pot, “What do you mean? It's as effective as napalm should be, why would it be more effective when we make it?”
Cellina thought for a moment then turned her head to look at Elina’s back tank, “I mean…how does it explode when I shoot your guys’ tanks. Normally the liquid would just…spill out wouldn’t it?”
Elina thought for a moment then shrugged, “How should I know I’m no chemical engineer, I was a paramedic.”
“What so they didn’t tell you how it works?” Cellina questioned worriedly.
Elina looked back at her staring at her through the gas mask, “They did, but I couldn’t wrap my head around how the hell it ignited so well because of a simple fucking ingredient!”
“What do you mean by th-“ Elina quickly took out her pistol and shot the concoction of napalm she was making, nothing happened to it.
Cellina covered her ears not wearing ear protection at the moment, “Oww seriously, did you have to fire a live round to that?!”
“Oh, so what you want me to fire a blank?” Elina said sarcastically, then she picked up a bunch of orange juice and added it to the concoction.
“Not the point, you could have just…set a match on it right?” Cellina questioned before slapping herself in the head, “Right fire and bullets…wait why did you add orange juice?”
Elina pulled Cellina away from her workstation then she shot the concoction again setting the station ablaze immediately.
Cellina admired the fire for a moment, then stared dumbfounded at it, “What the fuck?! It’s the orange juice?!”
Elina sighed looking down in disappointment, “I can’t even explain that myself, because it is so idiotic that it just…why?”
“Wait if that’s all it took, then why don’t you guys remove the orange juice part of the recipe? This only spells disaster for the rest of you guys doesn’t it?!” Cellina stated loudly pointing her hand to the fire which was still burning.
Elina stared at Cellina showing no emotion given that she wore her mask then she slapped herself on the head and groaned loudly, “I joined a faction of idiots…I swear.”
