Pilot 1: this is suit 451-a reporting survey is almost complete, we havent found anything. Dreadnaught: 451-a your transmission isnt clear *static* can you.... Pilot 1: repeat, survey is almost complete.. do you copy Dreadnaught?... this is 451-a do you copy?.... 341-c can you reach the Dreadnaught? Pilot 2: No i lost radio contact a few seconds ago. *radar goes dead* Pilot 2: what the hell? 451-a I just lost my radar.. I'll need visual escort back to the Dreadnaught. Pilot 1: I wish i could help ya, but I lost mine too. lets see if we ca... *satic followed by an explosion* Pilot 2: 451-a... 451-a... can you read me? Rob: no... he cant Pilot 2: Identify yourself pilot.. who is this? Rob: *soft chuckle* if i told you, I'd have to kill you... like you friend. Pilot 2: damnit i cant see him *vulcan cannon shells pound on the 341-c's haul* Pilot 2: shit! 341-c frantically starts firing his laser cannon wildly not knowing who he was facing or what.. the laser cannon overheats and he pulls out the beam saber.. Rob: *chuckle* Beam saber? what a basic weapon. melee is true battle... it is the fight of warriors. you are brave.. but such a waste of the IE. *Plasma rod illuminates in the darkness of space* Pilot 2: there you are! Pilot 2 charges the unknown mecha, when he gets close he recognizes it and freezes in terror Rob: you stopped.. coward *slashs the IE suit down the shoulder into between the legs going through the cockpit* Dreadnaught: 451-a or 341-c come in.. this is the Dreadnaught report status imediately! Rob: the dreadnaught! the pride of the ferderations fleet... my lucky day. Computer located A-Class star crusier Dreadnaught. X Computer: Intergalatic Enforcer battle crusier Dreadnaught located *appears on monitor* The X boosters thrust at max to the location of the Dreadnaught, the Dreadnaught located the X on its radar (battle crusier radars are harder to jam with mecha's jammers) Dreadnaught: Pilot of the X, you have been spotted, surrender your suit at once or you will be destoried. Rob: come and get me The dreadnaught fires its ultra particle cannon at the X and the crew's celebration can be heard over the intercom, but to their dismay the X remains surrounded by a red orb (the hyper shield) which dissapears seconds later. The X pulls out is Ultra Plasma cannon and charges i to max and fires at the Dreadnaught blowing a huge hole threw its left engine and taking out many decks Commander: Impossible! no one can survive such an assult!.. give me a damage report! Soldier: Sir, left engine is totally gone, thrusters are inoperative, life suport on decks 45-63 are offline, main computer is temporarly offline. Commander: sitting ducks!! were a sitting duck to one Mobile Suit!?! this is the most powerful battle cruiser in the universe! Rob: Ah its a shame I dont have a battle curiser of my own to finish you off, but send my warm grettings to the viceroy. The X pulls out its plasma rod and swings under the Dreadnaugh and runs it under the ship as it goes at max thrust. the X dissapears into space leaving the mighty dreadnaught crippled. OOC: (sorry for the long introduction of my character.. i havent even actually introduced him, but to save you the reading ill do it next time) Vyper - 07 Jan 2003 08:52 pm Post subject: Hiroko: Cerebrus, set course for the European desert. Cerebrus (femine voice): Yes, Hiroko. Watch out, there will be high frequencies of radiation, far worse than the ones of the East America Desert. Hiroko: Acknowledged: :: Hiroko walks out of the cockpit and through the accomidations corridor, coming into the main portion of the large ship, the hangar. He is burdened as he pulls a thick pile of synthetic fabrics, and begins attaching them to the joints of Hotaru - 2, preparing it for the desert. By the time he's attaching one of the last fabrics, he's taken off his shirt from all of the hard labor. He crawls over and reaches under the shoulder to try to fasten it, but falls off as the entire ship shakes violently, as they enter the atmosphere. :: Hiroko: Cerebrus! Why didn't you set the course through the hole in the atmosphere! I'm going to have to buy new entry tiles now! Cerebrus: My apologies. I will remember this in the future. Hiroko: Acknowledged. :: Hiroko finished attaching the fabrics and went back to the control station to review his detailed travel plan. :: It read, ' You will leave from the Tau Ceti space station and embark straight to Earth. Upon entering the atmosphere, the Hotaru - 2 will be prepared for conditions. After breaking through the atmosphere, Cerebrus will dock at Skybase IV, and generalized maintenance will be prepared, as well as enhanced preparations for conditions. Estimated time to Skybase IV: Twelve hours. From there Cerebrus will fly straight to the Underground London Outpost. Estimated time from Skybase IV: Six hours.' :: Hiroko went to his bedroom and tried to take a nap, but was restless. He stared up into space to see a small battle, and was suprised when a familiar melee weapon was wielded :: He thought to himself, 'Can that be the Plasma technology Crest nixxed two years ago?' and went to sleep. DeathscytheX - 07 Jan 2003 10:02 pm Post subject: IC: the X apporches a remote area in space the senors detect a large cloaked object, Rob enters in some encrypted code on his console and send it out. Radio: back so soon Mr. Opsulous? A farily big station decloaks and the X docks in a bay which closes and appears to vanish as if there was no door in the 1st place. Rob: Gordon, I need you to check the calibration on the X's UPC (ultra plasma cannon) it might be a few sectors off. Gordon: will do sir. Gordon is an old man who has taken in Rob as a son every since he found him drifting in his unfinish suit. Gordon has no idea where he acciqured the suit and when he asked Rob, he wouldnt tell. but together they finished it with Robs directions, all though a few parts had to be reworked due to the outdated requirements. Rob sits in a lobby drinking his hot Polarian coffee with his feet proped up on the table and he watchs the News on the monitor. Gordon walks in and sits down with him. Gordon: well I fixed the problem, its rare that the X has such problems as calbration.. i been working on a autorecalbration system for the computer, but Its about 65% done.. im also working on something esle but thats a suprise for later..... you know polarian coffee isnt very healthy for humans. Rob: *laughs* yeah yeah, you say that every day.. its good tho, plus it keeps me warm. TV: The federation reports that the Dreadnaught was drifting helplessly in space do to an encounter with what seemed to be the X, repair crews towed the battle crusier to Skybase IV in the Sol System where it will undergo repair round the clock. Damages estimated to be 200 million credits. 2 federation suits were also lost in this encounter along with 76 enlisted IE. Gordon: looks like you hit the big one today... your getting to risky, it was bad enough you have disposed of many top aces, but the pride of the fleet? they will step up operations and be on you more than ever. Rob: They deserve it.. besides no one in the IE has more piloting skill than I, I got it from my father.. the greatest of all remember? Gordon: I can't hide you here forever, when they find out where will you go? Rob: They wont find out Gordon... I'll leave before they get close.. I have places. dont worry about it they dont even know that the son of Jim Opsulous pilots the X. Get some sleep old man. you look tired. I'll look over the station while you rest.. Gordon sighs and slightly shakes his head. he hates the IE as much as anyone but does not understand Rob's feirce ambitions against them. His father was a pilot in the IE after all... he went to his quarters and laid down thinking more about this. Rob goes to the control room with this coffee and sits and ponders about something... Vyper - 08 Jan 2003 12:26 am Post subject: OOC: DX you trying to get me in trouble, eh IC: Cerebrus woke Hiroko up when they were near Skybase IV. Hiroko went into the Cockpit and commed the Skybase IV Hangar Control. Hiroko: Hailing frequencies open. Skybase IV Operator: Hello, how may I help you? Hiroko: I made previous reservations several days ago. My hangar number is FLM600-58640. Skybase IV Operator: Ah, a Mod Starbridge Class C Corvette. Due to an emergency you will be redirected to Dock B-4. You may proceed. The hangar door opened, revealing that Skybase IV was cheap in that it didn't have private hangars. After the hangar door was closed, he opened the inner mobile suit bay door. He watched as it slowly opened, and the smell of burning poured in. Alarmed, he looked to see the Dreadnaught sitting right next to him, and two officers talking. Officer 1: Yeah, I hear they're bringing the sister ship Leviathan in to tow it after temporary replacements have been made here. Officer 2: Won't that overburden the Leviathan? It's already full to the brim with suits, attacking the Underground Europe Rebel base. During conversation, Hiroko panicked and glanced at his suit in the open after preparing it, and hurried to close the door, by pressing the down button while it was still opening. The computer loudly blared 'ERROR: UNABLE TO COMPLETE REQUEST' after a message. This was enough to get the officers' attention, and looked at Hotaru - 2 and then at each other, and made a mad dash for the Cerebrus. The door was fully open, and began closing. When the door was halfway closed, they made it up the large slope of Cerebrus. Hiroko went up and fought them, kicking one back and making him slide down the hull of the ship, and dodged the other's blows, took his leg, twisted it at an extreme angle, and threw him off just before the door closed. Hiroko yelled at Cerebrus, 'I have to leave! Put interior defenses on hostile! Seal thrusters!' He then ran out from the other side and went out to the hub and ordered ammunition to be delivered. He decided that his suit would have to go to the desert without radiation protection. He met the truck driver and got a ride with him. Just before going out to the hangar, he stopped and hid behind the wall to the sides of the door. He guessed right; the IE had surrounded Cerebrus with heavily armed personnel and a few suits. He whispered into his headset microphone, 'Cerebrus, raise the Nervous Amplifyer and once that tast is complete, raise the door, and then set turrets to nearest foreign units.' The truck driver came to the Starbridge, and one of the authorities asked him what he was doing, with all of the personnels' weapons trained on him. Truck Driver: I'm making a delivery. Authority: Vey well. We will come in once the doors raise. Cerebrus raised a large, thick antenna, and then opened the door, revealing plainly enough, the Hotaru - 2. 'Go in and kill any living things! Destroy any opposing turrets, and secure the suit! Make sure nothing gets to the suit!' Some were killed by the sentry turrets, but artillery got rid of them quickly. Meanwhile, Hiroko crouched behind a crate and thought 'Mindset Configuration 0047, via Amplifyer' Pulsing, splitting headaches went as waves through his forehead, and he was forced into fetal position. His sight went blank, and next thing he knew he was seeing a dreamy view. At the same time, the mobile suit's eyes brightened. Several personnel backed away. He looked as his hand, which after some lag, showed an armored metallic one. Hotaru - 2 slowly walked forwards, as Hiroko hadn't much practice with this. The men called thei mobile suits, but were soon killed by one fell swoop of the hand. He couldn't figure out how to launch the micromissiles, let alone open the hatches. He reached back and flung out his beam katana, which turned on automatically. The electricty flickering all around it as if they were ready to kill. He thrusted up to one and sliced it's head off, and then punched a crushing blow to the cockpit. Blood trickled out. He ran up and threw the katana at the chest of another, where it stuck for awhile and then fell, cutting off more the process. He picked it up but it had undergone too much impact, and malfunctioned. Knowing that he had human like skills via this control method, he looked and saw the other mech pilot with his blaster trained on him. Apparently a rookie, as he hadn't fired yet and probably wet his pants. Not wanting to kill someone that young, he ran under his ship which made temporary cover, and squeezed the end of the blaster, crushing it together. He yanked it away from him, took the butt of it and slammed it into the back of its head, making all of the sensors malfunction, and tripped it, making it land on its face. Lastly, he ripped the thruster off and threw it in his ship, for fuel later. He then walked up to all of the entrances of the Dreadnought, maneuvering under the turrets, and while holding the stolen blaster's trigger, drug the tip of it along the seals of the door, somewhat soldering them shut. He made Hotaru walk into the ship, and disengaged. He ran into his ship, and just as got in the suit bay, saw the Leviathan. He panicked remembering the conversation. He pleaded to the Control Tower, Hiroko: Please open the bay! Operator: Sorry, the IE is making us hold you in until Leviathan can dock. Hiroko: It's urgent! Operator: Sorry, man, but I have a family and I can't mess with the IE. Seriously, if the circumstances were different I'd help you. Hiroko: Okay, I understand. Hiroko shut the doors and got in the cockpit. He used selective brake thrusters/ boosters to do a slow 180, and by the time he finished, the operator had succesfully evacuated the bay of civillians, and Leviathan had docked, and was opening doors. Suits already prepared, poured out. Hiroko slammed the afterburner, totaling some personal cruisers, and shot through the door whilst only sustaining minor damage. Loose cargo was sucked out of the bay, as well as any personnel on the Leviathan's unloading bays. Hiroko set course to the Underground Europe base. Unbeknownst to him, the afterburners had killed the operator. Azrael - 08 Jan 2003 12:42 am Post subject: ::A group of black towing frigates exit hyperspace over Teimas. Mukuro glances up at the sky breifly and smiles. Even through the thick atmosphere and dim light of the planet, he can see a large IE ship and doesn't need to see its escorts.:: Towing Frigate [over comlink]: This is S1 of TF-4. We've arrived over Teimas and are entering low orbit now. We have the destroyer, and the other crews are cleaning up. Mukuro: Good, good. How long will it take for a full repair? S1: With us and TF-3, we should have it ready in in two days. Mukuro: Thank you. I'll see to it that you all get a share of whatever it makes us. Ground Station 1 out. *closes comlink* Pilot: For a destroyer, that was pretty easy. Kinda makes me wonder where the rest of the fleet was. Mukuro: Probably bailing out their precious flagship. Whoever pilots the X did us a big favor today. Pilot: Now that's true. If I ever see the guy I'll have to buy him a drink. Speaking of which, a few of us are going out to celebrate. Wanna come? Mukuro: Maybe next time, Jon. I've still got a few things to take care of. *walks back inside and heads for the compound's roof* ::On the roof, Mukuro thinks back the fight. He attacks any IE ships that get within a lightyear of the Teimas system as a matter of principal, and these had come well within that. It could hardly be called a fight though. Two of his best pilots had been with him. There were only four mechs accompanying the ship, and they had all been destroyed in a matter of seconds. The destroyer put up as much of a fight as the mechs, and it only took a shot to the command deck and another to the main engine to neutralize. People don't usually fight well when they can't see, he decides. Satisfied with the day's work, he retires to his quarters and unconsciously decides to keep the destroyer.:: OOC: Egh...shifting tenses. Don't feel like fixing it. DeathscytheX - 08 Jan 2003 12:47 am Post subject: OOC: oops i forgot that the IE was after your suit as well. my bad vyp x-x. IC: sitting in the control center Rob turns on the monitor to hear the latest news breif. TV: the Levianthan has docked at Skybase IV to assist in bringing back the Dreadnaught to IE HQ, and to finish out the Dreadnaughts patrol assignment. A recent accident has left 2 IE officers dead, the IE has no comment at this time, just that an investigation is currently being conducted. *commercials* Rob: the levianthan? why would 2 major battle cruisers be here without the presences of a full scale war? Even if the Dreadnaught is severly damaged, it still has plenty of suits to take care of business... if they needed extra pilots a amored transport would have been sufficeint.. *sips coffee* *hits the intercom button* Gordon Gordon: yes? Rob: Im gonna take a shower and get some rest. Gordon: ok I will take over... ill be up there in a few. Rob exits the control room and heads for the showers. Vyper - 08 Jan 2003 01:14 am Post subject: The Cerebrus broke throught the clouds, and were skimming 2,000 feet about the sea. They went for another six hours, and arrived in Old Europe, where the ship slowed down to 150 mph, skimming for the beacon. They found it, and hovered about five miles away from the entrance. Hiroko dropped a seismic mine on the sand, and detonated it, making a large crater. The Cerebrus descended, and Hiroko got in Hotaru and flew out. Once the doors were closed, Cerebrus landed and fired at the side of the crater, making it cave in, thus burrowing it, and shut down. Hiroko walked and sent out the password on a static frequency, and doors opened, with sand falling in through the crevices. He descended, and went to talk to his friend, who was the Executive of the European black market, and warned him that once Leviathan was finished escorting the Dreadnaught to IE HQs they would launch a full scale assault. A Call to Arms alarm was blown, and Hiroko went to get in his suit himself. But one thought stuck in his mind: 'Why of all of the black markets, would they want to attack here?' coolkam007 - 08 Jan 2003 01:56 am Post subject: ::Inside of the Alexander (IE Frigate camouflaged as an Ordinary Cargo Ship only a few light years away from the Drednaught) laying in bed, staring out of his window with headphones, talking to himself:: Iyashu: I cant believe this crap.. 2 weeks from vacation and this happens.

He has no defenses what-so-ever. Well Shadow Sun how should we do this? SS on-board comp: Well using the Beam Rifle would be alot cleaner since we don't want to be found but using the Shadow Funnels would be alot easier. Denethor: We'll do it the easy way. Shadow Funnels attack the structure. *All twelve of the Shadow Funnels launch fixating on the stucture and shooting they're scaled down plasma cannons. Within in 3 minutes the whole structure is destroyed leaveing only a smoking pile of ruins and many many charred bodies* SS: Denethor I detect IE Enforcer suits converging on our point. I suggest we get off planet as soon as possible. Denethor: Alright. Lets go. *The Shadow Sun launches from it position going straight through Balin 5's atmosphere* Denethor: Alright SS take us to the nearest wormhole entrance that will take us to Aiur so we can collect the money. SS: As you wish Denethor. This will take a while. Get some sleep. Denethor: Already on that. Oh yeah. Radio Spike also and tell him to get the Stalker there also. We're going to need to reload again since we did alot of fighting on the way. SS: Alright. Vyper - 08 Jan 2003 07:04 pm Post subject: The Leviathan informs the Alexander that they have more pressing issues, and tell it to secure the Dreadnaught as it would be wide open to attack by rebels. The Leviathan makes it way above the Europe Underground black market, and lets out mobile suits. Inside, Hiroko stands amongst some 30 mobile suits, and tells all civililians to go to the center, and that the IE should be coming through all three doors, and to distribute suits amongst all sides. He sadly watches the saddened women and children go into the bunker. A man commed Hiroko: Man: I have a sattelite that we can receive live feeds from above us on. Hiroko: Very well. Patch it's feed to the main screens. Immediately, the four gargantuan screens enveloping the base turn on to show around 150 suits preparing ouutside of the the Leviathan. The Leviathan also seemed to be gathering energy on its underside. They all gazed in disbelief. It seemed like they had completely forgotten about their situation, until a gear in the door broke. They all looked, and a suit pushed one side of the door away, and six flooded in. They weren't just pawns, either; these were formidable opponents, and far better made than most of the shotty suits made by the rebels. On the opposite side, an explosion knocked another door down. Three more boosted in. The rebels near the other door hit it with plasma weapons, and it slimed over the wall in a molten mess. Just as it was still weak, an IE suit slammed into it, and quickly overheated, and exploded, making a large metal bubble. Four other explosions could be heard behind it, so apparently its explosion killed them too. However, that was the only luck they were having; more suits came in through the other doors, and they were slaughtering the rebels while they were at it. Hiroko ripped off one's head and went to the comm tower in the center, and hurried to get out. He broadcasted to all non-IE suits and vehicles over all frequencies withing 5 lightyears saying 'This is a distress signal at the European Underground Ozma Base! Over a hundred IE suits as well as the Leviathan battlecruiser are besieging the base as I speak! Please help u~ - static -' at this time, an IE mobile suit had picked up the message and shot the comm tower, 50 feet below Hiroko. The tower collapsed where the missile hit, and slowly began to tip over. Hiroko ran to his suit, but the tilt caused a table to slide down and knock him down, right in front of the window. The leg was ten feet away. He climbed up to a higher point, and jumped out just as the tower fell, giving him an extra push. He latched onto the Hotaru and climbed up to the cockpit, and got in. He saw the suit that had fired the missile, as the trail of smoke was still coming from him. He pulled out the Mega Particle Beam Cannon, and shot him square in the chest. He was still standing in the opening, and his explosion caused that opening to implode, leaving only one entrance. There were just 12 rebel suits now, and around 70 IE suits left, but they got the upper hand, as only two could get out at a time, and were killed just as they went down the shaft to the entrance. 'The IE will have to rethink their plan', he thought, but he thought that too soon; the cavern shook, and a large beam crashed straight through the center of the ceiling, and destroyed the bunker with all of the civilians, as well as the main power core, which was far deeper into the platform. The nucleur power core blew up violently, and the platform tilted at an extreme angle. Six suits fell off, and the Hotaru slid too, but gripped the side of the platform, staring down now into the firing hell of the exploded power core. He slowly looked up to see plainly in the sky, the Leviathan hovering menacingly in the air. OOC: I'll make a Bryce 5 diagram soon enough, but here's a visualization: Underground, shafts go down some 100 feet. At the bottom are heavy doors, which open to bridges that lead to an island suspended in the middle of the cavern. Here, skyscrapers grasp the ceiling and the city is a hub of activity. DeathscytheX - 08 Jan 2003 08:10 pm Post subject: IC As the levianthan floats above the underground base a large beam of light crosses its flank causing all of its bay doors to be welded shut. The X has fired its ultra plasma cannon across the side of the crusier. Rob: Dang, its right over the base, if i do the same thing like i did to the dreadnaught it will falll on all thoes people. Rob spots some new model IE suits surrounding a nice sized hole in the ground, what ever they were looking at they had stopped now that he was there. the 5 suits started to fire missiles and laser cannons at the X but Rob boosted up in the air and fired some mini-warheads destorying 2 suits and crippling another, one already seemed to be damaged. Rob thrusted down, pulled out a plasma rod and slashed through the torso of the last fully functional suit and quickly thrust behind the 2 last damaged suits he jamed a plasma rod in ones back, through the cockpit and flips up and haults up in mid air upsidedown holding the plasma cannon to the core of the last and most badly crippled suit. The pilot is astonished at what had just happend, what seemed to be mere seconds 4 of his comrades were destoryed and now he is about to go while the X is performing a manuver than is only suppose to be possible in 0 gravity. Rob: What are you doing here IE Pilot: what... what do you mean Rob: WHAT IS YOUR BISUNESS HERE!! Pilot: I.. I..I..I dont know... Rob: dont play games with me fool! what does the IE want with this place, why is the Levianthan here! why doesnt the Dreadnaught send its suits down and perform this operation!.. why does it take 2 battlecurisers to perform this onslaught! Pilot: Im just a pilot following orders Rob fires its UPC destorying the Mecha leaving its legs which fall to the ground. The Leviathan monitors the situation that just went down and retreats in fear of the X firing the plasma cannon at its engine core, they could not afford to have both battle curisers out of commission at once, and the fact that unable to release more units they had no alternative. Rob watches as it difts back up into space, all though tempted to fire, he held back, he wanted to investigate what the IE wanted with such a desolate place in the middle of no where. Rob goes over to the hole and seens a suit griping on a unstable platform. Rob: Computer, scan the suit.. I've never seen that model before is it IE? Computer: negative, the suit is of unknown origins Rob: must be one of the locals, anyways he cant boost out of there, the heat is tremendous according to the readings, any added heat can set off the damaged power source.... Pilot do you require assitance? Rob lowers the X's grapple cord for the suit to grab on too to tow it back to the top. Vyper - 08 Jan 2003 10:36 pm Post subject: Hiroko firmly grabs the grapple cord and shoots his onto the X's hand, and gets pulled up. While being pulled up, he summons Cerebrus, which lifts up from the sand. Hiroko: You stay here! I need to save the six other suits! Rob: Hurry - it's going to explode soon. The Cerebrus's door panels withdraw, and Hiroko jumps on, and swoops down and picks up one suit. It flies closer to the top and pushes it out to be grappled by the X, and two more suits fall. He begins flying to another, but he panics and tries flying to the top, but his booster explodes and his suit floats down. He pushes him towards Rob, and he grapples him, but the cord had taken too much stress, and the suit as well as the ripped out cord descend helplessly into the Inferno. Hiroko thinks 'Now where was that other suit?' he tries to perform a scan but the conditions don't allow, and he hovers slightly above the street. He detects radar output, but sees nothing. Giving up, he starts to fly out, but then sees a suit deactivated near the last remaining opening, and sees that sand had flooded the shaft after Leviathan attacked directly. He thinks it was an IE suit and does a flyby to taunt him, but he saw something strange when he passed by. He thought he saw a girl almost his age crouched in her cockpit crying. Cerebrus automatically begins to go out of the base, but Hiroko checks the still log and finds that it indeed was what he thought. He tries manually steering Cerebrus to go pick her up, but its bleeps, 'Unable to comply, Fatal level hazard. Estimated time until Core blast: 00:09.12 seconds.' He punches the console and gets back into his suit. He attaches the tow cable to Cerebrus, and jumps down, onto the platform. 50% of cable used. He lays his hand in front of her, but she's in an emotional wreck and doesn't get on. 70% of cable used. He slams his fist on her fuel compartment. Her HUDs blink 'Warning fire hazard: Commencing auto eject.' 85% of cable used. The cockpit closes. 90% of cable used. The cockpit jets out towards Hotaru - 2. 100% of cable used. At 200mph, the same speed Cerebrus was going, the Hotaru - 2 is yanked from the platform. In a last ditch effort, he takes his long Mega Particle Beam Cannon and captures the escape pod inside of the barrel. Azrael - 08 Jan 2003 10:47 pm Post subject: Mukuro is awakened by a communication officer with a worried look on his face. Officer: Sir, one of our scouts recieved a distress call from a European black market city. It seems that the Leviathan battlecruiser has attacked them. Mukuro [groggily]: Europe...on Earth...send out an attack squadron. Officer: That was ten minutes ago, sir. By the time we get there it'll probably be over. Mukuro: Ah...shit. Send the nearest support group, then. Make sure they're guarded. I guess I'll go too. *gets up slowly and heads towards the hangar* Seven minutes later, a Crimson Star support group arrived at the ruins of the Ozma base. Vyper - 08 Jan 2003 10:58 pm Post subject: Meanwhile, the X and Hotaru - 2 were both on the Cerebrus. The only person besides the girl that had been succesfully rescued turned out to be dead. They just sat down in the small living room just as big as all of the other accomidations rooms, and Hiroko laid her down on the couch (she passed out) and went to make some real Polarian coffee. 'So, pilot of the X, what drew you to help us? I must admit, I wouldn't be here had it not been for you; so many people are apathetic to big events like this anymore.. I doubt they'd even realize something big was brewing.' Azrael - 08 Jan 2003 11:16 pm Post subject: By the time Mukuro and his squadron arrived on Earth, thirty minutes had passed, and all who had been involved in the battle were long gone. The support frigates had landed, and a large radar tower was extending from one of them. Mukuro docked Karasu in this one, and was met by the captain almost immediately after he got out. They began walking towards the command deck. Mukuro: So, were there any survivors? Captain: Our crews have been in there for the past twenty-three minutes, and there's no sign of life. The only thing we picked up was a small ship heading west about 600 miles out. It doesn't look like any guild ship, but we couldn't get a decent scan on them. Mukuro: Whoever they are, they're certainly not IE. They never send out anything smaller than a destroyer unguarded. Hail them. They were now on the command deck, and the communications officer hailed the ship on all smuggler and rebel channels. DeathscytheX - 09 Jan 2003 12:27 am Post subject: IC: Rob sits down and takes off his sunglasses revealing his metalic colored pupils. Call me Rob, the IE is my sworn enemy... everything they do, its all corrupted.. The Viceroy is just a head figure.. he has no real power. The Enforcers just parade around the universe thinking they are Invincible... I like to show them otherwise. Something just didnt feel right about this... By combat standards, 2 battle cruisers should not be located within a system of each other unless there is the presence of a full scale war. I thought maybe they were after some super weapon or something. Hiroko looks at Rob suspiciously as to how he knows so much about IE codes and regulations. Dont freak out on me. Im not an IE officer... My father was a Pilot for them.. he died in combat along with his whole sqaudron.. I think it was a setup because a project that he was doing.. I blame those bastards for my loss... My assitant Gordon just doesnt understand why I take such big risks to get in there face. You Suit is quite impressive... I can't say i have ever seen anything quite like it. Thats the great thing about illegal suits.. us solo pilots can do whatever we want to them... the IE pilots have to uses what ever they are issued or trained to pilot. Vyper - 09 Jan 2003 01:44 am Post subject: 'I used to be neutral, but they killed almost 20,000 people back there..and it could've been avoided. I must say, your suit is quite impressive too..' 'Hiroko, we have been hailed by a guild several hundred miles from here.', interrupted Cerebrus. 'Cerebrus, what are the chances that it's the IE attempting to track us.' '0.6 percent.' 'Alright, patch it through.' Mukuro: Hello, I am Mukuro, and am head of a guild. We are at the location of the ruins of the Ozma base, and saw you as the only signal within range. Hiroko: Ahh, I see. You don't have anyone outside of suits do you? That place is crawling with radiation - a nucleur fusion reactor just blew up! Anyways, what is your business. Mukuro: We are investigating what happened here. Why are the Leviathan and the Dreadnought - not to mention the Alexander according to intelligence all within the same system? Hiroko: Why are you asking me this? I just warned them to attempt to prevent them from causing a massacre - I guess they died anyways. Ermh.. It seems that our conversation will be cut short. If you want, Rendezvous with me in the urbanized country Neo Japan in the A5382 02 3582 - Residential sector. We'll give you the hailing ID number for my ship too. 218.200.31.478. I am sorry to cut you short, goodbye. Hiroko looked at the girl, now awaken, who was pointing Hiroko's gun at him. Girl: You IE won't return to base with me alive. Hiroko/Rob: IE? :: Girls fires at Hiroko but he dodges as she pulls the trigger :: Hiroko: Give him the gun, holding the barrel, and why don't you run out into the corridor and look at the size of our enormous battlecruiser! HAHAHAHAHAHA YOU WILL NEVER ESCAPE FROM OUR FLYING FORTRESS!! The girl freaks out and runs out of the door, and looks for an escape route. All she sees is a cockpit, a bathroom, a hangar, a bedroom, and a living room. Her face turns a bright pink Hiroko: YOU'D BETTER RUN OR THE GUARDS WILL BE AFTER 'YA! :: Rob stares are Hiroko like hes insane :: Hiroko: Theres a washer and dryer in the bathroom. Go get cleaned up. Hiroko looks back to see she's just put a bullet in his large television monitor The coffee machine dings, signalling it's ready. DeathscytheX - 09 Jan 2003 02:17 am Post subject: IC: So what do you think that call was about? Who is this Mukuro? Before Hiroko could answer the girl walked back the lounge with a towel wrapped around her, her cloths were being washed.. now that she was cleaned up, you could clearly see she was very attractive Girl: do you have anything to eat? Hiroko: yeah, help yourself. *points to the fridge* as she walks pass between them they check her out most notibly her ass. Rob and Hiroko then look at each other with facial expressions of approval. Hiroko continues on what he thinks about the call... Strider Hiryu - 09 Jan 2003 08:56 am Post subject: *Denethor arrives on the planet Aiur* Denethor: SS radio our client and tell him the mission is finished. Also radio Spike and give him our coordinates so he can pick us up. *A few minutes later* SS: Alright. Spike is already here so its just a matter of finding him. Our client has transferred the amount agreed upon into our bank account. Denethor: Alright. Now tell Spike to get his ass up here. SS: Alright working on that. *A few seconds later Spike and his cargo ship arrive* Spike: What do you want? Denethor: I need to reload and fix up a few things on my suit. Also I'm wondering if I can hitch a ride. Spike: Yea yea. You know where to put your suit. I also have some news that will interest you. *a half an hour later on board the ship* Spike: I guess they're was a big disturbance on Earth about two hours ago. The IE destroyed a rebel. Thats about all thats known right now. Denethor: So. Why would I care? Its just the earth. Spike: Yea but rumor has it that the X showed up there and tried to save it. Denethor: Really. Well it might actually be worth checking out. I have some questions that I would like answered by the pilot. Spike: Well shall I set the course to earth then. Denethor: No. Hes probably already gone. Set course to the nearest habitable planet near earth and we'll start checking there. Also is there any new jobs for me to take up. Spike: At the moment no. People these days are not able to pay your price to have a job done. Denethor: I guess that was bound to happen since I'm a well known mercenary/assassin. Well lets get going. *the ship takes off into the nearest wormhole to take them into the region where the X was last seen* Vyper - 09 Jan 2003 09:37 am Post subject: OOC: Strider Hiryu: The IE destroyed a rebel base. I'll edit this post later - school bus os comming in literally one minute x_x cyberlink - 09 Jan 2003 11:00 am Post subject: IC :: En-route to the Dreadnaught, Rei is informed that the Ship has been towed back to Skybase IV in the Sol System, TV: The federation reports that the Dreadnaught was drifting helplessly in space do to an encounter with what seemed to be the X, repair crews towed the battle cruiser to Skybase IV in the Sol System where it will undergo repair round the clock. Damages estimated to be 200 million credits. 2 federation suits were also lost in this encounter along with 76 enlisted IE. Rei: So the repair crew finally decides to do some work. That style of attack sounds Familiar, MMI run a reference check on the Last attack on the Dreadnaught. MMI: *commencing* Rei: Confirmed, I wonder… MMI: * Reference complete* Rei: Bring up tactical Statistics. MMI: * Accessing* :: The monitor flashes and the information on the battle statistics on the previous battle on the Dreadnaught. Rei: MMI can you cross check this against previous data? MMI: *affirmative* :: Again the monitor flashes with the random accounts of information. Previous encountered battles flash by. MMI: Cross Check complete, total of 3 matches, :: Rei scans through the information looking for tell tale signs and clues of the pilot of the X. Rei: just as I thought, so there you are….. :: a new information stream transmits to the Austoria X, Rei: So, the Leviathan is coming to help out its bigger brother, how cute. MMI: *ERROR! Overdrive systems disengaged* :: A loud rumbling noise can be heard from the Overdrive Thrusters, a main circuit has blown, flames begin to form and the engine is in disarray Rei: What not again!! MMI engage Nano-tech repair system. MMI: *engaged* Rei: full impulse, destination Skybase IV MMI: Confirmed, distance to target 6 microns. :: travelling through space, Rei decides to take a short nap, its not often that he can now a days. MMI: * incoming transmission * Rei: egh…. Um…. : Just woken up from what was supposed to be a light nap, Rei linked with the MMI and began Talking to the Transmitter Man: So Why do you come here Agent R? Rei: what who are you? Identify your self! MMI: *Identity, Mukuro, Location: UNKOWN. Line IP: UNTRACEABLE* Mukuro: Its no use truing to track this signal, its completely un-traceable, Rei: Well Mukuro, what do you want and how did you get this Frequency. Mukuro: I can’t tell you right Now all I can tell you is that the information you have received is all a farce. I advise you to run a complete Virus Scan. Rei: WHAT! That means shutting down all systems! Mukuro: I know, but that’s the only way I can make sure you are clean. Rei: Okay, just tell me why I should do this… :: Mukuro tells Rei that all the information is a farce and that he is behind time drastically, The IE suits are not the Allies they are infact the Enemy, he tells Rei that the IE’s are controlled by a commander who’s name is undisclosed at this point in time, and that they have recently killed over 200,000 people. Rei: WHAT, you mean that the Dreadnaught was part of these IE’s and that the Leviathan is part of it! Preposterous! Mukuro: its been a long time since your last visit Rei, Rei: well I don’t remember you or even know who the hell you work for! Mukuro: You will know all in due time my friend, all in due time! Rei: WHEN!!! Mukuro: RIGHT, listen to me very carefully, I am going to transmit you a file containing a location in which I want you to go to. Enable your data stream to the frequency of 1075MZ Rei: okay, enabled, :: The file transfer begins and ends in a few seconds. Rei opens the file and reads the location where he is supposed to head. It reads, URBANIZED COUNTRY NEO JAPAN, A5382 02 3582 RESIDENTUAL AREA, HAILING ID 218.200.31.478. Mukuro: okay Rei, you must trust me on this one, *END TRANSMISSION* Rei: MMI what’s the repair status on the Overdrive? MMI: *currently 98% complete* Rei: okay, as soon as its complete engage Overdrive and head to this location A5382 02 3582. MMI: *Urbanized country neo Japan selected* ::Rei looks at the navigation unit to see that earth has been selected as the destination, remembering his last encounter he falls into a daydream. Azrael - 09 Jan 2003 07:18 pm Post subject: OOC: Ehe...that'd be a bit stupid to give him someone else's hailing ID. DeathscytheX - 09 Jan 2003 08:41 pm Post subject: OCC: Cyberlink try not to use someone elses character in long dialogues.. its kinda unfair to that character if he did not want to do something you made him do. Azrael - 09 Jan 2003 11:58 pm Post subject: OOC: You mean like inviting an enemy to an underground meeting? I can work with it though. IC: The captain of the support frigate Apollo had gone to inform the people who had been on Cerebrus that Mukuro would be with them soon. Meanwhile, Karasu was in a dark underground hangar in Neo-Kyoto, and Mukuro was carefully watching the MMI on its long-range sensors. He was somewhat disappointed with his speech earlier, but Rei apparently hadn't been. It had been a heavy risk to contact him, but the possibility of claiming the Austoria X was simply too enticing to pass up. And he had done it. Whether Rei decided to join them or not, he would have one of the most powerful IE mechs beside him. There was quite a price on Rei's head, and Mukuro had been tempted to take the job, but of course a mole inside the IE would be priceless. The boy's mind had been emptied by all of his IE training, but Mukuro judged from earlier that it could be filled again. If his judgement proved wrong, then the money would still make a nice consolation prize. The MMI stopped well outside of town, next to Support Group 3 as requested. As Austoria approached the hangar, a slight smile appeared on Mukuro's face. Mukuro got out of the Karasu as Austoria landed, and began walking toward it. He was quite eager to meet the person who would either be his first IE connection or his first real challenge in a long time. cyberlink - 10 Jan 2003 04:51 am Post subject: OOC: sorry man, i didnt mean to. just forgot. Like the way you fixed it up tho. Vyper - 10 Jan 2003 06:12 pm Post subject: OOC: Sorry, DX I wasn't on for two days and kinda had you stuck with me See, what happened is Charter Communications promised Cable internet by the end of last year, so my dad didn't renew our dial up. Well, guess what... Charter's a bunch of morons and we're without internet period. My dad just renewed our subscription to dialup for two more months though. ALSO: Because I hate the name, the ship will be called the Zanzabar and the AI will be called Shiva. IC: Shiva: Hiroko, we are fifteen minutes from Neo Tokyo. Hiroko: Acknowledged. The girl now had her clothes on, and walked back into the room. Girl: Sorry about what happened earlier. My name is Auriana and I am a Polaris Psyker. OOC: Psyker - one trained in the art of psychokinesis, only the Polaris are adept at this skill; humans can only send vague messages after strenuous training. IC: Hiroko: So what were you doing in a mobile suit? Auriana: That was actually going to be what I was going to talk about. Polaris Prime is in Civil War. However, what they don't know, is that one side of the Civil War is being backed by the IE. The ignorant leaders of the revolution don't suspect the IE won't take Polaris Prime for itself. When this began, my father put me in intense training right alongside my Psyker training. However, six months ago, the IE captured me and forced me to use my Psyker skills alongside with my mech piloting skills in a suit, which supposedly could read nervous impulses. They called it the NV-MAD series.. Hiroko/Rob: NV-MAD!!!?!! Hiroko and Rob are now not only suprised at her mentioning the NV-MAD, but that each other knows what the NV-MAD is. Hiroko walks up to the tiny monitor and inserts a memory card titled NV-MAD Series. It turns on and says, 'NV-MAD7 designed for aerodynamics and defense, this was stolen from the IE Labs. NV-MAD6 was designed with sheer strength and power in mind. It is rumoured that this is actually the legendary X. The NV-MAD9 has been encountering many difficulties, and the Nervous Impulse system is so advanced it has been deemed impossible for a human to use. The NV-MAD1, NV-MAD3, and NV-MAD4 all were either destroyed or seriously malfunctioned, and have been destroyed. The NV-MAD2 is essentially the NV-MAD6 with less technological enhancements. This is controlled by the Ace pilot of the IE. NV-MAD5 and NV-MAD8 are currently undergoing experiments, as well as being used to research for mass production. Auriana: I pilotted the NV-MAD9. Hiroko: I have the NV-MAD7, and Rob's looks just like the NV-MAD6's plans. I need to see how well you pilot my suit. The entire ship shudders, and Shiva alerts, 'Warning, Ion warheads detected. Right engine is disabled. Hiroko: Pirates.. they picked the wrong time The Zanzabar is tailed by three heavy ships, as they fly directly over Neo Tokyo. All Neo Tokyo is is skyscrapers, and the ground level is always dark, and it's the kind of place you never want to take your children. DeathscytheX - 10 Jan 2003 10:39 pm Post subject: IC: Rob looks at the monitor Rob: blytz destoryers.. Hiroko/Auriana: blytz destoryers? Rob: mercinaries... rather new clique.. the use alot of pirate tactics and technology... take the ship down near ground level. use the darkness to our advantage. Hiroko: Shiva take us down 100 feet AGL (above ground level) Auriana: thats insane! we might hit a building or something! Rob: they'd be crazy to follow us then wont they? their ships are much bigger than this one.. Im going out, ill take car of this, they are most likely after me anyways. Hiroko: Need assistance? Rob: Yes but not with ur suit, its gonna be tight and 2 suits and 4 ships is pusing it. I need you and Auriana to man the turrets on this vessel. give me some cover fire. Auriana: is he all there in the head? trying to pilot in such small space is sucide, you either get hit or crash.. Rob charges the UPC as the bay door opens then fires taking out one ship, sending it crashing in the city streets, bursting out of the bay the X lands on another, then the right arm slams it into the haul puncturing it, Hiroko and Aurana fire the turrets at the other ship keeping it occupied. Rob drops a seismic mine into the hole and bursts off onto the other ship, the mind explodes taking out the thruster engines and slows the ship down to where it could no longer keep up but before it was out of site a Suit flys out is bay. Hiroko: Im coming out Rob: No. keep firing at the ship Auriana: with you on it!!! Rob: DO IT! the mecha charges at Rob firing a particle cannon but the X's hyper shield reders it useless at the same time causing damage to the haul of the ship. Rob: get lower and fire at the left thruster the blytz suit lands on the opposite side of the ship and pulls out a beam saber. Rob: good *smerk* The X pulls out both plasma rods and Auriana watches on in amazement Auriana: plasma sabers? that cant be teh NV-MAD6.. it was only suppose to have 1 ultra beam saber. the strengh is overwhealming but the speed is far beyond what it was rumored to have.. who is this guy and what is his suit? The blytz mecha swings but the X blocks with one rod and slices the arm off with the other then jams the 1st rod into the foot of the suit. the X puts the other rod away and then grabs the head of the blytz suit and crushes it like a can, pulling the rod out of the foot and putting he jams it in the left shoulder and lifts it over its head slaming it down into the control room of the ship. knowing Rob did this to blind the crew Hiroko fires a pin point accurate shot at the left thruster disabling it. Rob boosts off onto the zanzabar and watches as the ship collides with an old abandon building. Auriana: unbelievable... Rob: Hiroko... Hiroko: yes? Rob: how long do you think the repairs will take on that engine? Hiroko: I'll have to check with shiva, why? Rob: The blytz will be back.. thats why they are named that.. once they find out their buddies arent responding they will send more.. we need to get where we are going fast before they send bigger ships and more suits, looks like they have gotten their hands on some recent IE models... no doubt they are being paid... *Hiroko opens the bay door* oh yeah, while I dock see if you can brew up some more coffee its gonna be a long night. Vyper - 10 Jan 2003 11:08 pm Post subject: Hiroko: Well, I hope Muruko brings lots of help with him.. I know the engines won't be cheap, being built into the hull and all.. we're out of ammunition on the right turret too.. also, the place we were supposed to meet Muruko is some 4,000 feet high. I'm going to try radioing Muruko. Muruko receives a hail request and accepts. Hiroko talks into it, but Muruko hears nothing except static, and closes the transmission. Hiroko: The towers are too high; they kill any transmission here. If we wanted to hide from the IE, we could easily here; we'd be as unheard of as dead. However, I don't think we'd be able to adapt to the folk that live here.. Hiroko looks out, as one of the doors was jammed open from the battle. There are hoards of people, with defects, mutations, and just freaks in general, wielding all sorts of home made melee weapons. One of them speaks out above the crowd.. Deranged Man: Heheh.. thats polarian girll would m-make for sssssome great f-fun.. heh heh heh heh.. Mutated Man: YEsh, sssee wuhud.. but we'd hafta killl thooose freaks too.. annd that shship would make a nice hhause ttoo.. Hiroko turns around to see that Auriana had followed them to the suit bay. Hiroko: Get back in there! And lock the door! Tonnes of deranged and mutated people run to kill Rob and Hiroko. Meanwhile, Muruko is getting impatient, waiting at the designated rendezvous point. Annoyed, he flips through the message logs and finds that the static message was from the Zanzabar. DeathscytheX - 10 Jan 2003 11:25 pm Post subject: Rob pulls out his Phazon IV blaster and fires into the crowd shots blast through lines of people taking out 5 or 6 per shot. Rob: We could just get up there with our suits but we cant leave Auriana. Hiroko: I know Hiroko throws an deatomizer grenade out into the crowd and a 1/5 of the mob is vaporized into thin air.. this startles the crowd and causes them to retreat back into the dark alleys in which they came. Rob: they will be back.. we wont last forever on one turret and a blaster. hopefully Muruko will get curious and see what sent him a message... Rob and Hiroko manage to manually force the doors shut, even tho they were not able to be locked the door tracks were pretty badly damanged and would require even greater effort to reopen them. they went back inside and took shifts on the turret hopeing to get a sign from Muruko. Vyper - 10 Jan 2003 11:37 pm Post subject: Because of the hopelessness of the case, Hiroko feebly attempts to repair the engine. He rolls a crate near the engine full of tools, and gets dirfferent spare parts that could be used as replacements in a pinch. When the crate was empty, he found some flare shells. He hurriedly ran to the emptied turret and loaded them into the shafts. They were smaller than the barrels, but they worked anyways. He fired them up into the air. The static data output displayed on any ships' monitors: Distress: Zanzabar Grounded. Just then Shiva came over the intercom again. Shiva: Eight Blytz Destroyers detected coming in from South East at 180 miles per hour. Azrael - 11 Jan 2003 12:06 am Post subject: Mukuro thought nothing of the static transmission at first. In his anticipation to speak with Rei, he had almost forgotten about the crew of Zanzabar. When he looked to see who it was from, he had almost written it off as accidental. As he checked the log, however, he heard an explosion in the distance and thought he had better check it just in case. Mukuro got in the Karasu, cloaked, and told Rei to wait for him. As he approached the site where he had heard the explosion, he was hailed again by the Zanzabar. It was static again, but he didn't need to hear. When he rounded the next corner, he could see the Zanzabar in plain view with the dregs of society running from inside it. Mukuro [amused, over com]: Now how the hell did you get into this? Hiroko: I'll explain later! We've got more company coming. If you can send any more ships or mechs down here, we'll need them. As Hiroko said this, Mukuro could hear the Blytz Destroyers approaching in the distance and cursed under his breath. He shot up in the air briefly to get a better signal, and managed to get a link with the Apollo. Mukuro: Karasu to support frigate Apollo, do you read? Captain [staticy]: The sig-l's a little w...but we can -r you. Mukuro: Good. Send two loaded support frigates to my location NOW. Captain: Copy. ETA 3 mi...tes. Mukuro closed the link, landed again, and informed Hiroko and Rob that support was on the way. He could hear the Destroyers clearly now. He moved forward to get a better shot, and began firing mass drivers. OOC: Keep in mind Karasu is still cloaked. Also, a brief description of support frigates in here: Medium sized ships capable of making planetfall, which either carry mobile suits and light weaponry or advanced sensors and long-range coms. All of them come with light repair equipment. DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 12:24 am Post subject: The destoryers stop and circle the Zanzabar. 10 suits drop down and surround the vessel. Muruko notices that they are IE hellfurysuits and wonders how the blytz obtained them. Rob: dammit, were gonna have to fight *jumping into the X* the bay doors open and the X busts out firing mini-warheads taking out 3 suits off guard, fires vulcan cannons at anothers leg then pulls out a plasma rod and jams it into its head then thrusts up to avoid fire form the other 6 suits at the same time Charing the UPC and bringing down a destoryer. 2 more suits come out of it before it comes crashing to the ground on top of locals. Rob: we're gonna have to take out thoes destoryers they are all full of moble suits.. i cant keep firing my Plasma Cannon and fight suits at the same time without taking some damage. Muruko: the X! Hiroko tells Auriana to take over at the turret and heads for the Hotaru-2. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 12:26 am Post subject: OOC: Are the Blytz Destroyers going to be like Valkries from Robotech or what? I'm posting assuming they are.. Edit: Fixing.. Hiroko: Thanks alot! Knowing that his ammo need not be conserved, he got in the Hotaru and jumped out. He could see the Blytz Destroyers cruising in at high speeds, straight down the street. He pulled out his Mega Particle Beam Cannon, but they were too far away for the sensors. He aimed the crosshairs best he could, and fired. One flew straight into it, and blew up. Another's wing got caught in it, and began spinning uncontrollably, but reeased its suits before it crashed and blew up. The others released their payloads, all but one. Hiroko thought it was a kamikaze. He braced himself, but it dropped specialized suit right in his face and started hacking at him with his dual beam sabres. Hiroko thrusted backwards in time to mount the beam cannon on his back and pulled out his dual beam katanas. Shiva announced, 'Six more coming from above!' Whilst blocking the beam sabres, Hiroko looked up to see six more descending from above at a safe but fast speed, whilst the suits shot out of the hatches, raining shells from above. Hiroko: Mukuro, your friends better get here fast! DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 12:43 am Post subject: Rob: Hiroko cover me! I hate to do this, it might end up hurting innocent people in the city but i have not choice! Computer UPC overkill mode! Hiroko fights off suits as the X points is Ultra Plasma Cannon directly up at the clustered 6 destoryers coming down, the barrel splits into four sections vertically down the shaft spreading outward. A ball of energy starts to form at the bottom of the barrel and lightning can be seen jumping between the sections of the barrels as it chargers up the light gets intense from the energy almost blinding. the ball of light brusts out of the UPC and hits a destoryer sending a white shockwave spaning hundreds of feet in every direction crushing 5 ships and sending the 6th into another destoryer that was apart of the 1st 8. The blast was so huge it knocked every suit down and pushed the zanzabar a few feet back. Hiroko: why havent u been doing that the whole time!?!?! Rob: I couldnt, I cant use the UPC anymore, I have to repair it... More suits come down and the X and Hotaru-2 continue to fight them off. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 01:08 am Post subject: Hiroko, who was duelling with the special suit, took the oppurtunity, and grabbed the arm, twisted and incapacitated it, and flung it around so its back was to the Hotaru. He pried the cockpit open, and punched the back of the suit. The pilot flew out from impact, and yelled, 'Aurianna, get in this one! Let Shiva take the turrets!' Hiroko covered Auriana as she ran to the suit. Two Blytz suits saw her and tried shooting her. They engaged the Hotaru - 2. One went at him with a beam sabre, and Hiroko took out his dual beam katanas, and fought him. Just as he finished him off, he began to look for the other, but it was already on his back. Pulling on the Mega Particle Beam Cannon, he pushed off of the Hotaru with his leg, and ripped it off as well as his right arm. He thrusted up to the clearest vantage point in the skyscrapers, and began targetting Rob, who was preoccupied with other suits. Hiroko screamed, 'ROB, LOOK OUT!!!' but it was too late. The Mega Paticle Beam Cannon hammered his back. Rob panicked as the armor level shot down at blazing speeds. Desperate, Hiroko took his Plasma Gun and pelted the round storage of the mega particle beam cannon. It stopped hitting Rob, and the four round's worth of energy blew up in the suit's face. The skyscraper it was standing on toppled, and covered the back half of the Zanzabar and well as several suits. Hiroko rushed at the X and drug it into the Zanzabar. Hiroko screamed, 'Shiva, emergency maintenance now! Auriana where the hell are you!' Hiroko gasped, and looked towards the suit she was heading for, and the cockpit was still open. He panicked and looked everywhere, and then found two humans moving. The deranged man he had seen earlier was dragging Auriana into the lower parking garage of a skyscraper. Hiroko jumped out of Hotaru and got on his hoverbike, something he hadn't used in a long time. He yelled, 'Mukuro, hurry and take care of what's left with your guild! Shiva! Transfer all remaining energy to shields!' and blared off into the parking garage. Azrael - 11 Jan 2003 01:25 am Post subject: OOC: Sorry I took so long. While the X and Hotaru - 2 were defending the Zanzabar, Mukuro was busily firing away at every suit he could from above the fight. He had killed almost as many as either of them, but now his ammunition was running out. He fired his last mass driver projectile just as X had been incapacitated, and now he had no choice but to use energy weapons. He took the Karasu down into the melee, halving three mechs on his way. Despite his efforts and support from the Zanzabar, he was quickly losing ground. Rob: What the hell is taking so long?! Mukuro: They'll be here soon... Rob: You keep saying that, but where are they now? Unable to find an answer, Mukuro simply continued fighting. Slowly, he was pushed back toward Zanzabar's bays. As this happened, he could hear the high-pitched shriek of frigates overhead, and breathed a sigh of relief. Twenty-four of the Crimson Star guild's elite fighters came down onto the battlefield, and now the tides had turned. The remaining Blytz mechs were cut down in a hail of bullets and energy blasts, and now Mukuro had time to gather up X and the pieces of Hotaru and get them into Zanzabar as the support crews slowly repaired its engines. DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 01:47 am Post subject: The Next day the repairs are all done except for the Zanzabar which was 80% but was flown to the original meeting place for safer repairs. The X was fully restored. Mukuro's men offered to fix it, but Rob wouldnt let them in opted to repair it on his own. Even adding a few modifications such as an armor peircing chain gun he ripped off one of the blytz suits before he was dragged away. He even found away to let the hypersheild stay up a few seconds longer. Auriana came up behind Rob has he was looking at the completed X. Auriana: that's project x isnt it?... the real one. Rob: what makes you say that? Auriana: I have never seen a suit get blasted to that degree and survive... even at taht state u had as much armor left as a standard IE suit! Hiroko's suit is special Indeed, but there is something mysterious about yours... Rob: its probably just the all blackness. forget about it. Auriana: you have much pain in you.. I can sense it... your mind sends me signals.. you can open up to me if you want.. who are you? Auriana puts her hands on Robs shoulders and lays her head on his back. Rob pulls away and walks and gets inside the X to test calibration and other computer systems. Auriana turns around and slowly walks out the hangar. Rob: I have to gaurd my thoughts i forgot she has all kinds of brain powers. She could probably read my mind and know all my secrets and my past and that stuff... too freaky.. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 01:57 am Post subject: Standing out on the balcony, Hiroko looked at the vast cityscape. He saw skyscrapers stretch for miles, and ships slowly flying over them. He saw something far away, and was coming slowly towards them. He took his digital binoculars and zoomed in - it was the Dreadnought fully repaired. Hiroko thought to himself, 'We really need to stay low profile.. I don't know if I should tell Rob about this or not..he might try to attack it right now..' '-Tell him. If something bad happened, you'd feel guilty. I don't think Rob would do something like that.' Suprised, Hiroko turned around to find Auriana in a bathrobe, and didn't look stressed or scared like he had only seen her before.. Then, SLAP! Auriana ran out the door, yelling, 'Pervert!' DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 02:12 am Post subject: OOC: IC: X computer: A class Intergalatic Enforcer battle curiser Dreadnaught is within 500 yards. Rob: ! Rob runs out of the hangar and runs up to the balcony where Hiroko is Rob: That must be where the Hellfury's came from.. the blytz probably got them from the Dreadnaught.. that is why the Leviathan was used for that assult.. the Dreadnaught was carring the merchaindise. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 02:25 am Post subject: Still - couldn't one carry both? Hiroko looks to the skyline and sees some objects heading towards it. 'Transports?' They watch as the Dreadnaught desperately trys to destroy them, but two slam into its hull, doing almost nothing. The dreadnaught retaliates. A small black object slowly descends below it. Once it comes in contact with the ground, a huge earthquake ensues. Skyscrapers within the rough radius of it collapse. Most of the others within sight of the dreadnaught shake. But then they see something else. Mobile suits rise from between the skyscrapers and all go to attack it. Hiroko: Something's up. Rob: You're captain of the obvious. Auriana quips in, 'The IE's probably going to force a draft and many of the citizens don't want it happening. They're going to die in Polaris Prime if they do give in, they'll die if they resist. The IE disgusts me and puzzles me at the same time. Why do they want me? Why do they want Polaris Prime?' Azrael - 11 Jan 2003 02:52 am Post subject: While the others were regrouping from the previous day's battle, Mukuro had some business to take care of. He had known the leader of the Blytz raiders years ago, and the man had always had an insatiable thirst for power. Mukuro never thought that he would have sold out to the IE for that power, but he had obviously been wrong. Now, on the battlecruiser Dreadnought, he would pay the price for his greed. It was easy enough for Mukuro to get in through the ventilation, and easier still to make his way to the officers' quarters. A few wires cut in the electrical room along the way, and there was complete darkness for the next five minutes. When Vic Stern of the Blytz raiders stumbled into his quarters, he was greeted with a voice from his past and a knife at his throat. Mukuro: I never thought I'd see the day when Vic, the self-proclaimed 'Scourge of the IE', would sell his soul. Vic: How...how did you know?!! Mukuro: You should have seen this a long time ago. Mukuro was suddenly overcome with disgust. The blade slid home. He slipped out as quickly as he had come, stopping only once in the engine room. What two kamekazi ships couldn't do, a single well-placed charge would. The mighty Dreadnought would be out of comission for a few more days. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 03:03 am Post subject: Hiroko: OH NO WATCH OUT! Hiroko and Rob watched in horror as the rest of the blytz fleet emptied out and all attacked Muruko. Hiroko: Get in your suit Rob! He saved our ass now it's our turn! DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 03:15 am Post subject: IC: You go take the Frigates with you along with Auriana. I have some unfinished business to take care of... Rob Jumps in the X and blasts off in the dreadnaughts direction, as he arrives he sees that the frigates and the hotaru-2 are taking care of business. Suits followed him from the attack but were quickly taken down by the chain gun and vulcan cannons. the X mercilessly pounded on the dreadnaughts haul with mini-warheads, seismic mines, chain gun and vulcan cannon shells. the sheild generator was gone and most of its major weaponry knocked out of commision by the time he was out of ammo. Rob: well my friend.. its time we finishe what we have started... you dont seem to beable to move around this time. your defenders are off attacking 1 suit... bad military tactics... Computer UPC overkill mode! The plasma cannon spreads open again and fires a shot at the grounded dreadnaught directly in the middle breaking the mightly battle cruiser in half... The Dreadnaught had been destoryed Azrael - 11 Jan 2003 03:39 am Post subject: Mukuro watched in amazement as the X single-handedly destroyed the greatest ship in the IE fleet. He had owed Rob a drink before he even knew him. Now, he thought, he owed Rob quite a few drinks. He thought briefly of salvaging the dead ship for weapons, but decided that resurrecting even a small piece of the Dreadnought for his arsenal would be like dancing on the graves of his parents and friends. As if in agreement, its main engine went up in a ball of flame. Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 11:43 am Post subject: Several hours later and after a load of sleep.. Hiroko: Well, Rob, I can't find any other reason to stay on Earth now; we only came to Neo Tokyo for repairs.. are you going to stay with us or are you going back with Gordon? I think me and Auriana are going to fight at Polaris Prime.. Auriana: Your help would be greatful.. Strider Hiryu - 11 Jan 2003 01:57 pm Post subject: *Denethor and Spike arrive on Earth orbiting the planet* Spike: We're here Denethor. Denethor: Alright. I still have some repairs to take care of. Whats it look like around the earth. Spike: Well according to the computer theres a few IE ships around but none of them in the immediate area. I can't locate much on the planet since I have no idea where to start looking. Denethor: Well don't worry about it. Is there anyone around this system thats looking for a mercenary? Spike: I have no idea but I'll send out a radio message and see. Denethor: Alright. Thanks. Also keep scanning for the X. He might still be here but the chances are slim. Spike: Alright. DeathscytheX - 11 Jan 2003 03:06 pm Post subject: Rob: I have to go check back with Gordon. He was working on a few new things for the X when i left. Plus he is probably wondering if im dead or not.. you know how the Sol System isnt one to be quite... news of the Dreadnaughts distruction will be all over the news, and the IE wont be too happy that a large amount of very expensive suits have been disposed of. Id suggest we all get off earth before they come. Auriana uses her power to talk to Rob telepathically as she looks at him in the eyes in desparation. Auriana: please Rob, help us... help me... your Piloting skills are unlike anything I have ever seen. The IE fears you, you must come help my people... i beg you. *eyes become watery* Rob: I will help you.. I promise *telepathically* Auriana gasps at what just happend but before she could ask how he aquired such ability Rob cut her off Rob: I will head to Polaris Prime as soon as I check in with gordon and reload on ammo. I have a few other things to take care of, so no garuntee I will get there close to the time you will. Rob heads to the hanger and takes off back into space with the X while exiting the atmosphere the sensors detect a small cloaked body in space (Denethor) Rob: Computer.. scan cloaked object.. anything IE? Computer: negative.. Unknown transport that is holding one Mobile Suit that is not any IE configuration. The X bursts by close to the ship and off into space headed back to starblade (Gordons station). Vyper - 11 Jan 2003 05:33 pm Post subject: Hiroko: Okay, Auriana. You charter the route since its your homeworld. I'll be back in the bay. Hiroko walks into the bay which is in a state of disrepair. Bodies are strewn all over the floor, and blood is smeared everywhere. Hiroko sighs and drags the bodies into the waste disposal unit, shuts the hatch, and the bodies are sucked into space. He gets a mop and starts cleaning up all the blood. All while doing so, he doesn't notice one of the mutated humans from the ground level of Neo Tokyo getting in the mover buggy. Hiroko soaks the mop in the water once more, when he is hit and behind and slides hard against the slippery floor, knocking over the bucket full of bloody water. His gun slides out of the holster, and Hiroko reaches for it, but the buggy runs over his wrist. His teeth clench in pain just before he's clubbed over the head with a ratchet. He almost passes out but has had training to avoid becoming unconscious. He slowly gets up and picks up the mop. The deranged man comes in for another hit, ratchet out ready to hit him again. Right as he passes, Hiroko ducks and grabs the back of the cart, and hops on. He plunges the bar of the mop into his back, and in desperation and pain, the man tries throwing him off by swerving wildly, but the slippery floor makes the cart easilly loose control. The crates in back fly off, knocking Hiroko off. Before he hits the groud, he puts the deranged man into a headlock, and pulls him off with him. The cart, because of the imbalanced weight, falls on its side soon after, and slides in a circle. The man lands near his gun, and picks it up and points it at Hiroko. 'G-g-g-get up. H-hands behind joor hed.' Hiroko looks at Auriana, who is now standing in the doorway. Hiroko telepathically tells Auriana, 'Rob isn't the only other person who can do that - I'm half Polarian you know ' 'Y-you didn't hear.. ' 'Oh yeah, I sure did. You're such a sucker for Rob anyways, shoot this freak.' 'Okay..' Auriana shoots the man in his right arm. He drops the gun and clenches the arm in pain. Hiroko runs up, picks up the gun, and shoots him in the face six times, and drags him into the disposal hatch as well. Shiva then says, 'Estimated time to arrive in Polaris Prime : Two Days.' Strider Hiryu - 12 Jan 2003 01:08 am Post subject: Spike: Denethor the X just flew by. Denethor: Thanks for letting me know. Follow him to whereever hes going. Spike: Alright. I don't know if I'll be able to keep up with him but I'll try my best. Denethor: Thanks again. When we get close to where hes going drop me off and I'll go the rest of the way in the Shadow Sun. Spike: Alright. *Spike follows X as fast as his ship can go* DeathscytheX - 12 Jan 2003 01:27 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Starblade this is Rob, Permission to dock Gordon: Hello my friend... I see damaging a battle cruiser just wasnt enough for you. Rob: *soft chuckle* open the bay door gordon, I think we may have some company soon. Gordon: oh? who? Rob: I dont know.. someone has been following me. Gordon: IE? Rob: no.. i dont think so, maybe they were just headed in the same direction.. just be prepared for anything. The X docks on Starblade and Rob works on the Ultra Plasma Cannon. Rob: Gordon.. there has to be away where the UPC can function after overkill mode. Gordon: Maybe.. but for now I think i have something you may need... oh and i finished the auto-recalibration system.. I'll install the software in a few hours. Rob: excellent. Rob goes to the lounge and wonders how Hiroko and Auriana are doing.. the look at Auriana's face when she begged him to help her was stuck on his mind. Gordon: something troubling you? Rob: no... I met this girl on my latest adventure... I have a weird feeling about her, she wont get off my mind. Gordon: do you have feelings for her? Rob: I barely know her *scowling* Shes polarian... she can read minds and send telepathic messages. Gordon: you talked to her telepathically didnt you... you used thoes unstable implants thoes polarian surgens stuck in ur brain when they gave u vision. Rob: there not unstable.. I have managed to tweek them a bit.. they just need a bit more work. Gordon: whatever.. with all that polarian coffee you drink its all gone to your head.. its no suprise you would fall for a girl from polaris. Rob: *throws a book at Gordon as he chuckles at Rob* I dont have time for girls..... but she is really hot . Vyper - 12 Jan 2003 02:02 am Post subject: They walked into the living room, Hiroko clenching his broken wrist. 'Damn, that was my targeting arm too..' Auriana mixes several mobile suit fluids and some kitchen liquids, and turns into a dark green solution, and dumps it into a syringe. 'Here, let me inject this liquid into your vein.' '...won't that kill me?' 'No, silly.. the chemicals neutralize each other. It'll make your body numb and knock you out for awhile.' '..fine..' Auriana injects it and Hiroko is almost instantaneousley knocked out. Azrael - 12 Jan 2003 02:23 am Post subject: Mukuro left for Teimas shortly after the Dreadnought was destroyed. He went back to the rondezvous point just long enough to get Karasu and quickly tell everyone goodbye. As much as he liked spending time on the IE-controlled nuclear wasteland called Earth, there was business to attend to. With the start of the war on Polaris, there was suddenly a huge increase in salvaged ship parts, and even whole ships on occasion. Also, as with every war, there was a huge demand for assassins, and everyone knew that Teimat were best for that sort of thing. As one of the foremost assassins in the known universe, he expected to be quite busy in the next few months. Almost as soon as he arrived at Ground Station 1, Mukuro recieved a long-range transmission. He opened it and, as he expected, it contained a request for the assassination of a high-level IE official. The price offered was 15,000,000 credits. Whoever this man was, someone really hated him. He went to find the head of his elite forces, Jon Reeves. He found him on the roof of the complex, looking out over the city. Mukuro: Jon, I'm going to need you to take over the station for a while. I've got a hit on Polaris. Jon: Polaris? Oh...the war. Right. Well, I can handle things for a while, sure, but there's something you should know. Yesterday we got a transmission from the Earth Underground that the IE was working on something big. Since the destruction of their flagship, they want to send a message, and the rumor is that they're going to do it with the largest warship ever built. Mukuro [laughing]: What, so it can get destroyed by X like the Dreadnought? Jon: You know they won't make that mistake again. If they do this, they're going to do it right. Mukuro: Huh. Well...if you get anything definite, let me know. Jon: Of course. Mukuro went to the hangar, got in the Karasu, and headed toward Polaris Prime. Vyper - 12 Jan 2003 03:29 am Post subject: Auriana lays Hiroko parralel on the couch and pulls a blanket over him, and then gets in his bed and goes to sleep. The monitor in the control room reads, 'Estimated Time to Polaris Prime: One Day (24hrs)' Strider Hiryu - 12 Jan 2003 04:31 am Post subject: Spike: Well ain't that just convienent. Denethor: What happened now? Spike: The X has docked with something. Can't completely tell. Do you think we should go forward and find out what it is? Denethor: Come on man. You know me well enough to know I'll say yes. That and I really need to talk to the pilot. He may be the only way I can get the IE off my back ever since that whole incident 5 yrs. ago plus me stealing there most advanced suit when I was 10. Spike: Alright. I'll approach it slowly. I don't want us to get killed over a misunderstanding. Denethor: Alright. I'll be up to the cockpit in 5. I have a minor adjustment to make to the psychoframe. *Spike's ship (The Stalker) approaches the Starblade slowly and caustiously not trying to make any moves that would be considered hostile* cyberlink - 12 Jan 2003 11:24 am Post subject: OOC: sorry guys its kinda hard getting on here the past few days.. net probs. IC: Rei: I dont think Mukuro is comming back. MMI:*that would be an obvious statement* As Rei and the Austoria watched the battle in the distance Rei couldent help but feel letf out, He wanted to go and help them but Mukuro told him to wait here untill he returned. Many hours passed and Mukuro didnt return, Rei grew anctious and decided to leave and search the wreckage of the battle to see if he could find out as to where Mukuro went. Rei: MMI activate trace radar, I want a fix on anypart of Mukuros Mech. MMI: *Trace radar active, scannng area* As the Austoria scans the battle werckage Rei goes over in his mind what Mukuro had told him, 'Rei The IE arnt who they seem, they are a hive of wretched scum and cruelty' MMI:*Lock on active* Rei: is it mukuro's mech? MMI:*Negative, armour shards do not match that of the Karasu* Rei: well whos is it? MMI:*structural compesitation suggests that it is that of X, Comparing the shards to fragments found in a previous encounter.* Rei: so its just as i had thought, The X is here, MMI any trace of the Karasu? MMI:*negative* Rei: okay iniatate low level navigation thrusters, ill look for his the old fashioned way. The Austoria takes off into the distence leaving the Battle ground behind them, Content in the knowledge that Mukuro is okay Rei scanns the transponder frequencies for ion discharge, 2 Earth hours pass and no sign of the Karasu, suddenly a faint flicker comes accross the scanner. Rei: MMI what was that? MMI:*I do not know, it may have been a long range transmission* Rei: I want you to clean it up a bit okay, i want to know what that was!! The MMI locates the signal and downloads the transmission into its databanks, Being a longrange transmission and on a secure line that they had tapped into the file was a little on the dirty side, MMI:* Rei i have cleaned it up to the best of my abailities* Rei: thankx MMI, lets have a look, Rei inspects the file and finds out that its addressed to Mukuro, Its was something to do with an assination, of who he could not tell, there was to many gaps in the file to make out the whole story. Rei asks MMI where the file was hedded. MMI:*the file was hedded to a place called Ground Station 1* Rei: okay then lets go there! MMI whats the distance to the location? MMI: *approx 10045,34 Miles* Rei: okay at this speed it would take us a day to get there! MMI whats the risk of IOn radiation exposure to the enhabitance of earth with the overdrive active? MMI:* 0.57 Percent, do you want me to iniatiate overdrive sequence?* Rei: what do you think? MMI:*ill take that as a yes* The MMI prepares the Austoria for Overdrive, Rei: here we go, The overdrive boosters on the Austoria begin to glow, a ball of energy begins fo form in the central booster and the pressure gage rises to critical mass. Rei: ACTIVATE OVERDRIVE!!! YEEHAA!! The Austoria lets out a mighty roar as it streeks across the sky, shockwaves shatter windows and crumple automobiles. MMI:*systems nominal, overdrive speed 14.37giganads* Rei: ill get there in no time! Get redy Mukuro cuz HERE I COME!! The Austoria heads to the location of the Ground Station 1 where Mukuro is situated. Why Mukuro left Rei back there he did not know but one thing was for sure he felt like he was endetted to this guy. DeathscytheX - 12 Jan 2003 05:58 pm Post subject: Suddenly all power is lost on the vessel, radar goes down and auxilary is offline. Spike: wth?! Rob: Hello there... may I ask why you are here?

I am a wanted Mercinary.. and would very much like to meet the pilot of the X. My name is Denethor.... Gordon: hes telling the truth. he is on the IE's bounty list with you.. a few numbers below you but he is wanted up there pretty high. Rob: Dock in Bay IV, power is being restored, but we dont have room for that ship.. use your Suit to dock. Spike: how did he know the shadow-sun was in here? Denethor: no matter.

Rei and the Austoria hurtle towards Ground Station 1, un-aware the danger that lies ahead, After the battle that Rei observed the IE commanders have launched out an attack on those who faught and those who were nearby.

MMI:*current location 1.45 latatude 5.2 Longatude* Rei: okay iniatate defenceive systems, MMI:*activating ACS, ATR Nominal, LSM's hot* Rei: im ready IE, come and get me!!

MMI:*it appears that they are not following us, only hedded in the same direction* Rei: Mukuro! he has to know!, MMI contact Ground Station 1 and advise them to step up to code red! MMI:*transmitting* The Austoria tries to contact Ground Station 1 who is currentley un-aware that the IE is on to the location, Rei: Ground Station 1, this is the Austoria.

MMI:*Caution IE approaching* Rei: Okay lets go, YOU WILL PAY FOR THE ATTROCITIES YOU HAVE CAUSED!! The Austoria changes course and heads directley towards the IE who are hedded to Ground Station 1, Rei iniatate's attack drivers and the Austoria prepares for battle, The mighty Twin Beam Rifle charges with a golden glow and the Automated Defence system works overdrive. The IE Cruse at an altitude of 15,000ft un-aware of the Austoria behind them. Sunnenly a shot is fired, a blaze of golden flare screems past and 5 IE suits are distroyed. IE Pilot 1: OMG, were under attack, were under attack!! IE Pilot 2: Where are they? Where are they? IE Leader: Central this is attack fleet IDC2 we are under unknown threat, advise. Central, ..able att..k ........ IE Leader: Central please repeat, Central: .... IE Leader: Were on our own lads lets go kick some ass! The IE fleet searches for the Austoria who is currentley invisable to radar and eye sight, Rei spots another opportunity and begins to charge the Beam Rifle, IE Pilot 2: There, There he is! I see him, While the Austoria is charging the Beam Rifle the ACS flickers on and off, as energy supplys are concentrated on the Weapon. IE Pilot 1: ATTACK!!! The IE Fleet hurtles towards the every increasing in danger Austoria. Rei: MMI activate Beam Rifle Overdrive! MMI: *Beam Overdrive sequence activated, Primary thrusters disengaged, stabilezers grounded, Anchors grounded, Reverse primary manifold engaged, Charging* The austoria's Beam Rifle charges and reveals the Overdrive sequence, the whole suit flickers with a Golden glow. The IE still approach the Austoia. MMI:*Beam Overdrive sequence compleate* Rei: here goes, Fire BEAM OVERDRIVE!!!!! Azrael - 13 Jan 2003 03:37 pm Post subject: In the middle of the day on Teimas (the only time where a little light could actually shine through), Jon heard a loud explosion overhead. He started running towards the command center of GS1, and was contacted an officer who was already there. Officer: Sir, we've detected a fleet of IE ships heading towards the surface! Jon: How the hell did they get that far? Why didn't anyone say something? Officer: I...I don't know. They must have either used tunneling or some new cloaking system that we can't get by. Jon: Shit! Send out a citizens' broadcast and get all available combat groups in the air. While we're at it, send a few support groups too. Officer: Yes sir...wait...you should see this. It looks like one of their own mechs is fighting them! Jon: Well, good for him. Tell our men to ignore that one and concentrate all fire on the ships first. Jon ran to reach his own mech, a customized Seraph model, and join the battle. Meanwhile, Mukuro was reaching Starbase XII over Polaris Prime. He cloaked Karasu, slipped it in with a massive cargo ship, and went off toward the commercial district, where his target was. Strider Hiryu - 13 Jan 2003 04:23 pm Post subject: Denethor: I came to find out some info on the IE. I thought you'd be the one to talk to considering your one of the most wanted ppl in there eyes. I need to find out where one of the head officials is. His name is Alton Thorngage. Hes the reason I live my life the way I do and the reason why my parents and my family are dead. I need to find him and kill him. Hes also the only one who knows the truth about my suit, the Shadow Sun for hes the one who created it. So as you can see I need to find him and thought that you would have the info or that I could follow you and find him that way. DeathscytheX - 13 Jan 2003 11:23 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Alton Thorngage... probably the one of the most corrupted scumb of the consul of power. come with me. Denethor follows rob to a room. Rob presses a button an a data card pops out of a slot. he then takes another data card and sticks both in 2 slots of a machine in the middle of the room. After a few seconds he gives Denethor one of the cards. Rob: this is every consul meeting within the next 6 weeks. everything from diplomatic agreements, recruit missions, or even a basic convention.. each file has a list of all consul members attending each meeting and where the meeting will be located at. I caution you not do bring down the place if he is in it, not all of the Federation is corrupt, and there are actually some decent cousul members believe it or not. I hope this helps.... Oh and if you need any ammunitions feel free to help you self. there is alot in storage room 347E in the bay you docked in. I dunno if its anything you can use on your suit but your welcome to look. cyberlink - 14 Jan 2003 05:57 am Post subject: standing there in the Austoria Rei recharged the beam rifle. The massive Overdrive attack against the IE had rendered the ACS useless for the time being. Over heated and exhausted the IE forces were depleating in numbers, suddenly a transmission comes in over the comm system in the Austoria. Unknown: This is the support group of the GR1. unkmown suit make yourself known, Rei: GR1 this is Rei, Pilot of the Unknown suit Austoria, Glad you guys could make it. GR1 supprot: no probs Austoria, Just leave the rest to us! Rei: much appreciated, forced d6 through d76 are distroyed, but there are some stragglers, i think you can handle em. GR1 support: Thanks Austoria, proceed to GR1 and dock in hanger GD3. Rei: thanks, im on my way their now. GR1 support: GR1 this is the battle support group, i have made contact with the unknown suit, the Austoria, The pilot is known as Reiouku. I have sent him to you to dock at GD3. GR1: confermed GR1 support, we have him in sight, engageing docking precedures. The Austoria arrives at GD3 to be greeted by an unknown person. Unknown: Hi there man, that was some pritty mean manouvers up their. Rei: thanks, and you are? Unknown: oh my nake is Jon, glad i could meet you. Rei: likewise, Jon: well what are you doing here? i mean its not common for people to go up against the federation like that. Rei: im looking for Mukuro. I traced his to this location, do you know of him? Jon: so your looking for Mukuro eh.. Rei: yeah, he taught me the truth about the federation, he asked me to meet him at some ruins but he patred very quickley and didnt say a word. Jon: so it seems you know each other then. well im affraid to say that i cant disclose where Mukuro is at this current time, neither can we have strange people wandering aroung the base. Would you please follow me. Jon takes rei to a room where he can eat and have some rest. With the doors locked Rei cant help but feel that he is somesort of prisoner, Appart form the room deing comfortable that is. Rei thinks to himself and wonders why they have put him in here, He did help them out wit the IE after all. Without his help they would be under seige by the IE by now.

Well considering that I need no ammo I won't take any but I still thank you for the offer. If I'm ever in the neighborhood or in the vicinity of your suit I will look you up again. Until then I bid you farewell. *Denethor leaves and heads to the docking bay. When he gets there he finds his suit and takes off in it back to the Stalker* Spike: So what did you find out? Denethor: *throws the card at Spike* Put that into the computer and read it. Its the next consul meetings for the next 6 weeks. Find the one on the closest planet to us and we'll head there but make sure that scum Alton is their. Spike: Alright. *after about 10 min of looking Spike comes back* Spike: Alright theres a meeting on a planet not far from Polaris. Its one week from today and its the only one that Alton is going to. Denethor: Alright lets head there now and find where this meeting will take place and set up our plan of attack. Spike: Alright. *The Stalker heads to the nearest wormhole and they go on their journey the system in which this planet is located* DeathscytheX - 14 Jan 2003 05:55 pm Post subject: Gordon: The X's weaponry has been upgraded. to compensate for the changes the Mini-wareheads have been removed. New Weaponry Configuration 1x Ultra Beam Saber 2x Plasma Rods 1x Ultra Plasma Cannon 5x SL Missiles 15x Swarmers 1x Armor Peircing Chain Gun 2x Vuclan cannons 8x Napalm Pods Rob: Napalm Pods? wow Gordon.. I never thought youd agree to outlawed weaponry. what are SL Missiles? Gordon: SL stands for Sand Lion... the were giving that name for the way they damange the target. the warhead contains a drill like shape, they fire with a incredibly fast spiral rate, and drill into the armor of whatever you target it at.. once inside it detonates. Rob: impressive. Gordon: Oh yes, and The UPC can now fire up two 3 times in overkill before shorting out.. but try not to do them in such a short time. Rob: finally! that was so annoying... I will be heading to Polaris Prime sometime this week... try to find a warp jump thats not ran by the IE. Gordon: they are running short in numbers but I will do my best.

Hiroko runs to the bridge, and watches as they break through the clouds to see a giant battlefield over a city, with lasers flying all over between the two opposing forces, and a ceiling of many missiles passing, randomly exploding when two collide. Hiroko: Add the shielding field nodes, and include transportable ammunition for the beam cannon and plasma gun. Also, set item pods on standby, and load one with another beam katana, three with ammo, and two with battery supplements. DeathscytheX - 15 Jan 2003 01:24 am Post subject: Rob Goes to the Information center on Starblade and pops in a card. SB computer: accessing Intergalatic Enforcer Dreadnaught Database. Loading List Rob looks down the list he reads stuff on polaris prime, and the polaris galaxy. various secret missions and covert ops. after hours of reading he comes across a File named Project X. WARNING CLASSIFIED... ACCESS CODE NEEDED ::Rob enters a card:: AUTHORIZATION ACCEPTED The Project X is a program conducted behind the scenes of the Federation. This project is to created the Perfect and Ultimate Mecha capible of defeating all mecha's it faces in any situation and environment. The project was first lead by IE ace Jim Opsulous and his Dark Fury squad. The Federation thought since this was the most experianced and best Squad in the IE, they would have an understanding on what the Ultimate mecha could do. With limited man power the Federation grew impaitent with Jim Opsulous and took an Offer from the Crest Corporation to take up Project X. Jim Opsulous was ordered to cancel his work on Project X, and hand over all data and what he had so far. He refused and continued to work. The Crest Corporation refused to be competed with and Told Viceroy Glaston that they would withdraw there plans if Jim Opsulous continued. The IE sent the Dark Fury Squad leading them to believe they were on an Improtant escort mission in the Adramada Galaxy. The Crest Corporation Sent out pilots in its Newest Model Deathbringer suits and attacked the Dark Fury squad wiping them out. Despite their skill the Deathbringer suits were far to advanced. The Crest Corporation then started production on its NV-MAD series. NV-MAD1-NV-MAD5 were highly advance basic mobile suit units that are used by the IE today. the NV-MAD6 was never produced, past concept design. the NV-MAD7 was going to be used for Project X but was stolen before completion. Project X was then canned and the Crest Corporation was to focus on making highly advanced mobile suits for the IE. the Higer NV-MAD series were made for elite squads and IE Aces. Some have managed to hit the black markets of various galaxies. since then The Crest Corporation has become the official Mecha producer of the IE. Rob: I knew it.... I knew it didnt sound right... thoes bastards killed my father. Gordon: So you knew all along? Rob turns around in shock, he didnt know Gordon was watching the whole time. Rob: yes... i had a feeling it was them.. I just needed proof.. I remember my father always being nervous about his Mecha project.. Gordon: so that suit is Project X.... Rob: I need some sleep. Ill probably head out tomarrow to Polaris Prime... I have information they can use. Gordon: i see... I couldnt find any unauthorized jump check points Rob: dont worry about it.. i use a normal one. Gordon: but how? they will never allow u access... Rob takes the card out of the computer and exits the room. Azrael - 15 Jan 2003 02:24 am Post subject: OOC: One more thing, to cyberlink. To clarify, Mukuro doesn't actually want kill Rei, but his survival is optional. Because of Rei's demonstrated skills, he's worth more alive though. IC: Whenever he visited a Skybase, Mukuro was always overcome with the feeling that, were it not for the incredible stench of corruption, they would be beautiful places. He was heading towards the park now, where many couples took romantic walks at night. Marcus Vyscochen, the ground general for the Polaris Campaign, would be there walking with one of his mistresses now. In casual clothes, Mukuro looked like any other resident, and so Marcus took no note of him in passing. Now Mukuro was sure that he had the right person. He took a few steps past the general, turned quickly and shot a small spine into him. The only thing the man felt then was a slight itch, but he would be dead in seven minutes. Mukuro kept walking, his job now done. When he got back to the hangar, there was a crowd gathering around the body of an IE general in the park. He climbed into Karasu and slipped out of Skybase with another ship. Once he was in the safety of open space, Mukuro hailed his second-in-command, Jon. Mukuro: Inform my employer that the job is finished. I will expect the second half of my payment by the time I return. Jon: Copy. There's something you might want to hear though. Today, a fleet of IE warships and mechs launched a surprise attack on us through a temporary gate. If their best pilot hadn't defected, we would have had a serious fight on our hands. Mukuro: What of the defector? Jon: We have him in custody here. His suit is quite impressive, it-- Mukuro: Does he have a name, by chance? Jon: Well...yes. He says you'd know him as Rei. Mukuro: Interesting....keep him under close watch, but let him go where he wants. I'll talk to him when I get back. With this Mukuro ended the transmission. He would undoubtedly have other missions in the area shortly, but for now he could spend his time however he pleased. He saw flashes of light on the surface, indicating a battlefield, and briefly thought back to Zanzabar. After a moment's consideration, he turned and headed toward the planet's surface.

Denethor: Normally yes I'd be interested in helping out but this mission is of upmost importance to me. I must get revenge for the death of my parents and the mercenary group who were just like a family to me. Spike: I know but still. Denethor: Well if you want you can go help out.

Rei: Well its about time! Jon: i spoke to Mukuro and he conferms that you know him and that he knows you. He said that you may go where you want to but be warned, any funny business and thats it! Jon makes a hand jesture to his throat as Rei walks past, The door shut behind him and Rei is all alone on the GS1, Rei tries to contact the Austoria on the off bored comm system, Rei: MMI do you read, security overide 271, code alfa 35 delta 6.

Vyper - 16 Jan 2003 08:28 pm Post subject: OOC: Sorry, no more 'Dead Vyp Days' from here one IC: Hiroko scans the battlefield. He sees directly where theyre fighting many leveled buildings, and and he scans to the East he sees smaller buildings and progressively get larger as they get closer to Central Polaris Prime, where a large tower stretches high above any buildings, and a sphere hovers on top of it. A strange aura eminates from the sphere. Meanwhile, the IE seem to be gaining ground, and on the horizon the Leviathan, Thunderforge, and Aries all hover, and act as a large base, continually releasing more suits. He is startled as Auriana shrieks as she sees her homeworld being desecrated, and falls on the floor, sobbing. Hiroko crouches down and hugs her, and tells Shiva, 'We should head to the non-hostile areas for now. Get us out of here.' The Zanzabar takes off towards the Central building. Fifteen minutes later, they dock, and Auriana's uncle and his bodyguards run up to meet her. 'Auriana! You're safe! Please don't cry.. we'll make it out of this one way or another.. if things go bad we already have evacuation shuttles on standby.', Her uncle said, trying to comfort her. They hurriedly walked out of the Dock and into the main building. Hiroko followed into the massive tower, and once inside, realized it was an entire other city inside. The uncle took her on to the bridge, and Hiroko followed, but was stopped by the two guards. 'You may not pass beyond here. This is for authorized personnel only.' , they loudly proclaimed. Hiroko wondered if they were new or what, but decided not to stir trouble. Hiroko asked the less-uptight one, Hiroko: I have an advanced suit and would like to help in the battle. Are there any preparation rooms? Guard: Yes, they've set up a makeshift standing room and are sending troups out in waves. You may enter through either of the mobile suit doors, and follow down the ramp counter clockwise to the bottom floor, which has been converted to a maintenance room. I will warn you, however: the death rate is as high as 65% and most people there write their wills before going out. Hiroko: Okay. Open the suit entry bay. Guard: Your bravery is commendable. The heavilly armored door slowly slid open, and by the time it was open, Hiroko had already powered up the suit. He walked through the bay door, and his starbridge was taken to the Indoor Dock. He proceded down the ramp, and saw hysterical wives with their husbands, and just freaked out people in general. Hiroko went to one of the few open maintenance bays and got out. He made sure everything was in optimum shape, and as he was doing this a uniformed man approached Hiroko, and informed him, 'Sir, governess Auriana wants to speak with you.' '-Sure.' he pulls out a projector, and a lifesize hologram comes up, and Auriana begins speaking with Hiroko. Auriana: I'm sorry you weren't able to come with me.. Hiroko: No problem. I'm an alien here and they have every right not to trust me. Auriana: Yeah, well.. I explained to them how you and Rob saved me, and they allowed me to issue our Elite squadron to you. You will be the leader. Hiroko: Auriana: They're the 22nd Elite Stealth squadron. The desings are based off of the downloaded NV-MAD2 specs. They should serve you well. Hiroko: Thanks, love you. Auriana: Me too ^_^ The hologram ended and the young messenger picked it up. He was apparently an intern for the government. He looked flustured and said, 'Ooh, you's gettin some poon wif da governess...' He saw the eleven suits of the stealth team come down in their dark black suits. They stopped near him, and all got out. The messenger gave Hiroko an interactive hologram projecter, and walked off, laughing his ass off. The stealth team looked very disciplined. 'Okay, guys. You guys call me Hiroko, and I don't really have much experience at all as a leader. I'm probably a whole lot more laid back then any of your previous commanders, so I'll give you an overview of your mission.' He pulled out the hologram projector, and a map opened. It showed everything, and revealed a huge, flat battlecruiser behind the Leviathan, Thunderforge, and Aries, as wide as all three of them combined. All it had labeled was a '???'. 'Okay, here's what we're going to do. Those battlecruisers near each other are making for a large fortress of a base. The artillery weapons on them combined would be overkill on us, let alone without the huge thing we haven't been able to identify. The suits are coming straight at us from the ships, leaving a broad line of combat. I'm sure there's guerilla combat going on the streets outside of the main battle. What I seek to do is to cripple the base, and detract at least 1/3 of the attacking suits from our tower. As you can see, there is a large hill behind the battlecruisers, and we'll be doing more moving than fighting. Let's hope you guys live up to your name. Here's the path. We move a half mile into the battle, eliminating what ever comes in our way or engages us. From there, we move sharply northeast into the sewers. We travel northbound for eight miles, and come back out of the sewers, which will be three miles behind the battlecruisers. We will decrease power output by 80%, and turn radiators on to 300%. We will slowly make our way up the hill, staying out of the battlecruisers' sight. Using satellite feeds, I will lock onto the Aries's generator from behind the field, boost up when I have a solid lock, and unload all six of my Mega Particle Beam Cannon's power cells on the outboard generators. While I'm doing this, destroy and approaching suits before they can alert the battlecruisers, and do it without coming into their view. After the generator is destroyed, they will send backup suits. I will go into melee combat with my twin beam katanas and funnels, until the six power cells finish charging. You may set your output back to default at this time, as we will have already been detected. That is all. Move out!'

He had been growing a beard, or he hadn't shaved in a verylong time, nobody can tell anymore. He had been singing in his tounge : When I was a pilot, not so long ago I killed many soldiers, I killed them high and low My mobile suit rang, with many many shots I destroyed them all, all those stupid bots I was a pilot, in mother Russia's grand army I killed many soldiers, it well suited me Drunk : 'I've got to get another job somewhere.'

No mass drivers for you! IC: In the heat of battle, Mukuro was having fun. Smuggling and hits made him good money, but this was the kind of fighting he loved. Partly in order to conserve ammunition, partly because it was his favorite tactic, he was dashing in and out of the battle, decloaking only long enough to cut through any enemies in his way. He had been hailed quite a few times by Polarian soldiers, and even fired on once, but by now they had pretty well figured out whos side he was on. He was slowly working his way towards the four main ships. The largest one would be impossible for him to destroy on his own, but the Leviathon, Thunderforge, and Aires were all manageable. As he made his way forward, he caught a glimpse of Hiroko's mech in the battle and hailed him. Mukuro: I wondered if I'd see you here! Doing anything in particular? Hiroko: I'm taking the 22nd Elite around to take out Aires. Mukuro: Huh...well, have you seen Rob anywhere? Hiroko: No, but he said he'd be here sometime soon. Mukuro: Ah. Well, have fun. Hiroko had a slightly confused look on his face as Mukuro closed the transmission.

Rei: okay now thats done, next the weapon upgrades, Rei grabs the Mass Driver and dismantles it, inside he takes the Rail and the Energy generators, He then takes appart the Twin Beam Rifle and removes the Energy cartrages, Rei: grate, these energy generators will make light work of the Beam Overdrive. Next he takes the Rail form the Mass Driver and dismantles the missile system. He attaches the Rail to the missile launch system and replaces the missiles with a new warhead he has had in storage.

The X fires chain gun rounds crippling thrusters on one suit the other one fires its beam cannon but to no avail against the Hypersheild. Rob thrusted a plasma rod through its shoulder disabling the weapon then flew around the flank side to where all 5 suits where in front of the X. Rob releases a swarmer and watches it split into many smaller missiles and hit all of the targets crippling all 5 suits, the X then goes back and pulls the plasma rod out of the mecha's shoulder. Rob: I'd love to stay and finish the job, but im running on a tight schedule so I do apologize. *jumbled yelling from the insulted pilots* Rob: hmmm lets see.. the only checkpoints that would probably allow access to polaris prime would be ones that are transporting units there.

Vyper - 17 Jan 2003 07:12 pm Post subject: Hiroko steps out onto the battlefield, and things are far more chaotic then he expected. [Chaotic Death Metal Insert , Download some Disturbed/System of a Down] Mobile suits were exploding, the scene was so chaotic and organized, pilots weren't even targeting any individual suits, just randomly firing in the enemy's general direction. It wouldn't have worked had there not been so many suits. Occasionally the IE Battlecruisers would shoot artillery rounds at the Polaris suits, decimating groups of suits. Hiroko: Seven and Eight, you have long range weapons, correct? Set your suit to automatically follow me and destroy any incoming artillery shells. All others put your guns away and pull out your beam sabres; you'd have to be crazy to think you could get a lock out here. Clear your path and head straight for the opening in the sewers. Battle Supervisor: Stealth Unit Two has been lost. Hiroko: Damnit! Hiroko pulls out his beam katanas and hacks away at preoccupied IE suits like a machete on weeds. He thinks to himself, 'I could really use Rob's plasma rods right now..'. He sees a large artillery shell explode in midair, and says Hiroko: Good job, snipers. Just then he catches something coming out of the Leviathan. 'Binoculars on.' A small display comes from behind his chair, and he zooms in on the Leviathan, but it was too far and any closer was only digital zoom, making images pixelly. 'I could've swore that was a later model NV-MAD..', Hiroko thought to himself. Hiroko came under fire. He looked frantically to find him, but if he took any more damage, he would surely overheat. Hiroko: WHERE IS HE!!!?!?! Instantly, an enflamed IE suit fell down right in front of him. He turned around, and saw unit Eight with a smoking sniper rifle. He grinned, but his face turned to horror as a beam sabre ripped right through the torso. Hiroko: Die you bastard!!! Hiroko opened his missile pods and pummeled the suit to death, in which it promptly exploded. He closed the missile pods and proceded onwards, and they eventually got to the opening in the sewer. He rolled open the hatch, and they went in single-file, the last unit closing the hatch after himself. Hiroko: Nightvision on. Prepare for a long walk. They went on for hours, burdened wondering what was going on above them. Several pilots set their suits to automatically follow the Hotaru 2 and went to sleep or relaxed. Hiroko's targeting system began whining, and got very loud. He switched it off, and trudged on. They got to an intersection and decided to rest and let the batteries recharge. He expected this and had brought a duffel bag stuffed with food, and even a change of clothes. He opened the door, but it didn't reek as he expected, as it was only a drainage pipe. The other units got out too, and Hiroko climbed up and gave them all instant-heating ramen noodles. They ate it on their platforms, and talked while the suits continued recharging. The Hotaru 2 was an advanced suit and didn't take long to recharge at all, and started charging the Mega Particle Beam Cannon energy cells, while the stealth equipment of the elite teams' sucked up energy like no other, but the conversation was short lived, as they heard the stomping of approaching suits echo through the pipes. Hiroko: Turn on your suits and close the door! They got in, and as soon as they got back in the suits they became transparent, and were only detectable by the distortions in the background if you looked straight through them. Three IE suits came through with bomb planting gear. IE Squad Leader: Did you already plant all of the nuclear bombs? Hiroko: Yes, from here all the way to Polaris Central. IE Squad Leader: Wow - I began wondering why we hired a mercenary to do the job, but if you got all the way over there without being detected, any doubts I had are now gone. Squad, turn around. The IE Squad went into the intersection and went to turn around. Hiroko: By the way, just to make sure we're synchronized, when will they detonate? IE Squad Leader: 18:00 today. Hiroko: Got 'ya. Mine are set to 17:45 but oh well. IE Squad Leader: Okay, bye. The IE went back into the shaft where they came from, with the Leader following from behind, but as they went in, an alert message showed up showing that it was one of the stolen NV-MADs. He casually lifted his antennae and detected the other suits, and began to turn around, but it was too late, as Hiroko already had his beam cannon ready, and he fired it straight through the leader and his two support units, and hit where the sewer wall curved, making it cave in there, blocking the path. He looked to the left and right and wondered if either would merge. He checked his clock and saw that it was 14:00. If he was going to take one of the paths to disarm the bombs and it was the wrong path, they'd be screwed. He thought quickly, and said, Hiroko: Units Five, Ten, and Seven, come with me. Units Three, Four, and Eight, take the right path. Units One, Six, and Nine head back to Polaris Central to warn them in case we fail. Units: Confirmed.

() Rob spoted the Mid sized D class carreir that once held the Dark Fury squadron heading in the direction of Jump Gate Mercurius II, the Cloaked X gentally landed on the haul and turned off all power except the cloaking device and the Com link. Voltskrieg: This is Carrier 5CA-2T requesting Warp Jump to Polaris Prime Merc II: Sorry 5CA-2T Carreir Poseidon, Polaris Prime jump station is too congested, Polaris Minor is the closest we can jump you. Rob's Thought: Poseidon?.. must have changed the name Poseidon: Roger that, Ready for jump sequence. Merc II: Warp Gate activated, proceed at 4000 kph The Poseidon enters the jump gate with the X and reaches Polaris Minor, Rob stayed on for about half the journey until they were alone in deep space. The X decloaked and jammed a plasma rod into the cockpit and go ready to fight a squad on his own not knowing what kind of opponents he would face. Rob: No squad? X Computer: warning large quantities of Ionic and Raidoactive emissions dectected Rob: WTF?! NO WAY!!! Rob maxes out the throddle and gets to a safe distance when the Poseidon bursts into a flash of intense light sending a shockwave so massive it pushes a Moon into its on planet. Rob watches on as the moon collides with the planet in a spectacular light show of red, orange, and white. Rob: good thing Polian E was a lifeless mass and not a poplulated planet.. My god! Super Ionic Nukes! thats was outlawed by the IE years ago... wth are they transporting them too Polaris Pr.... Computer how long until we can rech Polaris Prime? Computer: EST of arrival 10 hours and 36 minutes at full thrust and no delays Rob: lets hope its still there when we arive.. Rob heads toward Polaris Prime at full speed. Vyper - 18 Jan 2003 01:32 am Post subject: Hiroko and his group thrust down the sewers in a hurry, making a loud warbly noise at the end of the sewer. He found a small device with a light, and sure enough, it was a nucleur bomb. He got out, and diffused it. They continued onwards, and sealed a hatch behind them. Meanwhile, Auriana was watching the battle when she was informed that her NV-MAD9 had been recovered from the Europe base and had been restored. Without delay, she got in it and rushed out to battle. The NV-MAD9's hud came on, and displayed 'Neurosynchronization Ratio : 95%. Starting system.' The synchronization display changed to the view of the room, and the arms came on the smaller screen. It read, Karasawa NRG Rifle x150 Condensed Antimatter Beamsabres x2 (can be combined to make a double sided beam sabre, like darth mauls) Matter Destabilizing Micromissiles x30 Chest-Mounted Plasma Vulcans x2 Ion supported Head Vulcans x2 (throws off system + damage) Auriana: Confirmed. Open door. The door slid open, and she shot five micromissiles at the IE suits, giving them random effects at contact, such as deforming or parts breaking off. She saw one thrusting straight at her above all the others, and had the antimatter sabres come out, ejecting from its forearm into the palms of its hands. She slammed the butts of the two sabres together, and at impact a sinister black beam shot straight out of both sides, and the handles locked together. He pulled out his sabre whilst rushing, and swiped only to have it intercepted by one end. He pulled it hard one way and she had to keep it steady so he wouldn't quickly slice her again, so she peppered him with her plasma vulcans. After a little time, his core became engulfed in flame, and she boosted up, and stood on a high vantage point. The beam sabres unhooked and slid back into its forearms. Auriana: Mission Control. Mission Control Operator: Yes? Auriana: My suit from now on will be called the Feuerfrei. Mission Control: Confirmed. We are creating an alias in the records. She then pulled out her Karasawa, and stood from her vantage point. She aimed at IE suits, and simply shot them down when they came into the sights. She fired of some more Matter Disruption missiles, and got into the sewer system. She switched to overboost, and got to the split. She detected Hiroko's signal from the left, and continued boosting to the left, and got to a sealed door. Azrael - 18 Jan 2003 01:48 am Post subject: OOC: She's fuckin' loaded!

Azrael - 18 Jan 2003 03:01 am Post subject: In the hour it took him to cut across the battlefield, Mukuro's enthusiasm was replaced by grim determination. He didn't have anywhere near the psychic abilities of the Polarians, but had always been able to send and pick up raw emotions. As he approached his objective, Mukuro's mind became more and more filled with the agonized screams of his dying comrades, and it quickly reminded him why he was really there. He finally reached the Leviathan and entered its docking bay, which was already filled with suits being repaired. Once he was in, Mukuro decloaked and sliced through all of the disabled suits. He diverted all available power to Karasu's beam sabers and started cutting into the ship. When he was close enough, Mukuro buried all of his missiles in the center on timed fuses. He quickly flew out and sent the Polarians a strong feeling of aversion to the Leviathan, hoping they would understand. Some of them did; some did not. Ten seconds later the Leviathan exploded, sending scrap metal in all directions and killing hundreds of pilots on both sides. Vyper - 18 Jan 2003 03:43 am Post subject: OOC: Uh. The Leviathan's like the strongest ship that exists to this date. It won't be that easy; you'd probably be screwed as soon as you uncloaked, if heat, energy, motion, and pulse sensors didn't already pick you up. How'd you get to the center of something the size of like eight football fields so fast? All of ones missiles might cripple a quarter of the ship, but that won't stop it from sending out more suits.. I mean, crap, man, I've created an elaborate path to stay out of the Aires - the smallest one's - sights In other related news, I present the poorly psed NV-MAD9 aka Feuerfrei. DeathscytheX - 18 Jan 2003 05:35 pm Post subject: Rob bursted through space, long range scanners picked up a ultra massive object heading toward Polaris Prime and another one 1/5 of its size almost there. Rob: computer scan objects and tell me what you can find out on them. *clicks on Raido* Computer: scanning database for matches on objects. Radio: In a dispute on Polaris Prime, matters have seem to have becomed bigger than expected. The Levianthan has taken serious damage in what seems a terrorist bombing, all defensive operations are down, and it is only able to defend itself with its remaining suits. Computer: Object one is unidentifiable, at current speed it will take it 11 hours to reach Polaris Prime, Object 2 is Intergalatic Enforcer Battle Cruiser Centaur. Rob: the Centaur must be coming in to releave the Leviathan... but what the hell is that huge ass thing headed for Prime? Computer: Approching Polaris Prime in 30 minutes, and additonal 20 minutes until surface landing. Rob: Gotta make it fast... time for my grandest entrance! Rob Can see Polaris Prime in the distance, he could aslo see the black and scared ground and faint lights of battle with this enhanced sight. His heart started to beat hard as it always does for the excitement of a good battle ahead. Gundam-Ranger-X - 18 Jan 2003 10:44 pm Post subject: Meanwhile on Polaris Prime Lev sat in his Mech. He had just escaped his persuers ((event that doesn't really matter so I'm skipping it.)) and is now hiding out at the bottom of the ocean. 'That was a little too close for comfort.' Lev said aloud to himself and just as he finnished his laptop screen lit up. <incoming message from uknown source>. Lev watched in horror as a moon crashed into Polian E. <???: This could very well be repeated at Polaris Prime. We have obtained information that several Super Ionic Nuclear Warheads are beeing transported to Polaris Prime. You must dissable the transport. Lev1: Who is this ? ???: Will you accept the mission ?> Lev slamed his fist against his controls. 'Damned I hate taking jobs from strangers, but I can't just sit here and wait for death. Lucky bastards, they left me no choice.' Revolution Massacre took off from the ocean floor at top speed and quickly made it's way into the atmosphere. For the first time in two years, it was about to engage in combat. Vyper - 19 Jan 2003 12:24 am Post subject: After disabling several more bombs, Hiroko decided to try something. He shot one bomb with an ion beam, and sure enough, it shut down. Within a half hour they had finished disabling all of them when Mission Control: Units Three, Four, and Eight have been lost. Hiroko: What!!!?!?! What if there were bombs on that side? Unit Seven: There was only one team. We're fine. Hiroko: How did they die though? This makes me wonder.. They continue on, with just one mile left. ------------------------------------------------------- Auriana turned back to the intersection and went on the right path which was open, hoping it would merge with the left. She heard three defined explosions echo not far from there, and began wondering what was going on. She pulled out her beamsabres as guns would be ineffective in such close quarters. She rushes down to find Hiroko's suit, standing in the debris of the deceased units. Auriana: Hiroko... how could you.. -------------------------------------------------------- On Tau Ceti, the IE's science research planet, Alton Thronage is touring the lab. A man supervising it's operations greets Alton as he steps off of his private shuttle. Supervisor: Greetings, Mr. Thronage! You're just on time. Alton Thronage (Smiling): Some people do say I'm a very timely person. Anyways, let's see how this project is coming along. Supervisor: Very well, but first, you must sign this agreement: 'I hereby acknowledge that this is a Level 10 Classified Project and if any evidence is found of attempts to or execution of leakig information, will be acted on by: Assanation' Alton's eyes bugged out at such a large penalty, but knew he had no plans to divulge any information, and signed the paper. The supervisor looked into a security device, placed his hands on the sides, and after a beep, entered a number into the keypad. Four doors slid open, and each closed as soon as they walked past it. There was a door at the other end of the room, and on all sides heavy dangerous chemical safety suits. Supervisor: Put them on, and seal all areas. After getting in their testing suits, they went through a series of three air locks, and then walked into a soundproof room. Supervisor: It's alright to take off your helmet here. After taking off their helmets, they sat at a small desk. Alton: So, tell me about Project KTH. Supervisor: Well, we have big plans for this break through by our scientists.. hopefully this will be the answer to get the separistists on our side.... we wont have to worry about them resisting anymore :: alton and the supervisor laugh for awhile :: Alton: Well, begin the tour. Supervisor: Okay, put your helmet back on. They walk through the door, where six compact prototype nuclear reactors. Supervisor: One of Project Krankheittötung, or KTH will feature new compact nuclear reactors, which will make the machines quicker to produce, easier to install, and more convenient, as it would make the machine far smaller than one with a conventional nuclear generator. This isn't much of a display, except we are using the regular sized three on the left to compare to out far smaller systems on the right. Our systems are lighter and have 10% higher output than the conventional ones. We will now procede into the specimen holding. They went into a room which had four machines with a ring with a cut at the top. Supervisor: Alton, please step into these. They will greatly reduce any radiaton recieved from the nucleur reactors. He walked into it, and the ring slowly descended while spinning over Alton, and went back up. It made a tone, and they walked out. They went through the door into the specimens room, where ten humans sat on beds in sealed cells. Each cell had its respective computer which was monitoring it's pilot. Alton: Do they have any neurological abnormalities after the limited exposure they've had? Supervisor: Yes, for around six hours after contact they became far more submissive than usual. You could get them to do almost anything. Alton: Okay, do you have any that have had more exposure after some three days or so? Supervisor: No, sorry, we released those specimens two days ago. Alton: I see. And these tests were done on what pilots- Supervisor: Do you honeslty think we'd do it on our own pilots? They were all performed on captured guerillas and two students who were highly disruptive at the academies. Alton: Very well. Supervisor: You can take the next door to the suit disposal room, where you can then get on the monorail to the hangars. Alton walked out, took off his suit, and got on the express monorail. His chauffeur already had the ship running, and they took off towards the planet his next meeting would be.

IC: The mission control operator looks at the time, and Hiroko should have made it out of the sewers by then. Mission Control: Where the hell is he? -------------------------------------------------------- Without a word, the NV-MAD7 engages Auriana. He pulls out his own pair of Antimatter Beamsabres, and he strikes at the Feuerfrei with his left beam sabre, which is caught underhanded by Auriana's beamsabre. Auriana strikes at him almost immediately after catching it with her left beam sabre, and is intercepted by his right sabre. Auriana begins shooting at the core of the NV-MAD7, but he sees the barrels pre-spin and two small vulcan turrets pop out of his chest and specifically target her plasma turrets. After very little time, the plasma vulcans explode and his radiator was only at 40% capacity. Using the tremor as a diversion, he quickly transfers all the mechanical energy to his left arm, which whips her beamsabre away without difficulty, and with a quick continuation of the sweep, slops off the forearm. The only reason she wasn't able to prevent that was that at the same time, his turret vulcans had been tearing away at the camera unit in the Feuerfrei's head, causing her displays to malfunction, and soon after the camera broke. Auriana thrusted backwards and switched to sonar mode, then shot what was left of her matter disruption micromissiles. Thinking quickly, he stuck his beam sabres parralel vertically, and an antimatter field was created between them. Of course, he missiles were directly on target, and all hit that field, simply melting into it. However, the missiles' antimatter energy caused them to overload, and short out. he threw them to the side, and began to panic, as she could now easily rush him with her beamsabres. Then he noticed something: when she thrusted backwards she got to an edge, that dropped off into the sewer intersection, which probably was very deep. Before she got a chance to attack, he hit the overboosters at max capacity, and slammed into her, and pushed her into the sewer with him. He began hammering on her with his head and chest vulcans, and became desperate. He realized that if he could cause a leak she'd die, and began punching at the cockpit. Inside, Auriana panicked as she saw parts of her cockpit become severely indented, and one of the screens broke, shoting sparks everywhere. Desperate, she too hit the overbooster with max capacity. However, she had far stronger boosters than him. She grabbed his suit from under the arms and used his suit as a shield and they bursted through the road. The NV-MAD7 managed to slip off and pushed off of the Feuerfrei. Auriana regained composition, and pulled out her one beam sabre, as her other arm had been ripped off. She yelled, 'Hiroko, give up now!' He said nothing. 'Hiroko, please give up!' Auriana began crying. 'Fine! I'm going to disable you whether you like it or not!' she ran towards him at full speed, beam sabre in a ready position. He said to himself, 'Silly girl.. I still have one last ace up my sleeve.' He pressed a button on his console, and the mega particle beam cannon mounted on his back uncloaked. She stopped and gasped. It rolled over the shoulder into the ready position, and hit her straight on. Armor Layer after layer melted away. Auriana's systems shut down. The shoulders melted off and what was left of her arms fell onto the street, out of the beam. Eventually the blast stopped, when all that was left was the shrivveled and melted sheet metal stuck to the skeleton of the legs as well as the pilot core and the melted frame of the chest. He walked over and picked up her antimatter beamsabre. He stuck it close to the cockpit, close enough that the radiation allowed her to feel her body's structure to crawl incoherently. Auriana: HIROKO!!! WHY!!?!?!! Pilot: WHAT!? HIROKO'S HE-!!!??? Before he could finish the sentence, Hiroko slammed the side of his Hotaru 2 into the side of the NV-MAD7R, who was being controlled by his lifetime rival, Hatsuma. They were now standing on opposite ends of the road. Hiroko: Hatsuma, you should have never joined the IE. Hatsuma: Hiroko, fool! It doesn't matter if I like it or not! It is unthinkable to rebel from the IE! Why die because of a government change?? Hiroko: A government change? How blind and ignorant can you possibly be? They've just slaughtered hundreds of thousands of citizens just to have Polaris Prime's resources! Hatsuma: You know as well as I do that Polaris would attack the IE within all due time - think of it as a preemptive strike. Hiroko: You can say whatever you want, you will never justify the inhumane and corrupted nature of the IE. You yourself have become corrupted under their influence. You nearly killed Auriana!! A small bar on Hiroko's HUD drastically increases from 5% to 38%. Hatsuma: The suit was wanted by the IE. It was stolen, just like yours. I'm glad you aren't terrorists or we'd be in for a fix. Hiroko: The IE wants them because they're scared of their own suits. Hatsuma: Think what you will, you separitists have blown the IE's inhumanity out of proportion. Oh, and speaking on things wanted by the IE, all direct family members as well as the pilots of the stolen suits have been sentenced to death - not to mention a 1 million credit bounty for each one! So lets see.. how much will I make today? 3 million credits? Hiroko: There's only two of us - unless you count the X coming within the hour! Hatsuma: Boy, you can stop the dramatics! The X is being optimized in Tau Ceti right now! Anyways, I'd like to show you my other one million. A small capsule the size of a beamsabre handle slid out from the NV-MAD7R (R = enhanced NV-MAD7). He pressed a button on the console, and the hatch on the capsule slid wide open. Hiroko's body went cold at the sight. Hiroko: FATHER~!!!!!!!!!!!! His father reached out towards Hiroko in desparation before Hatsuma twisted him like a rag. Hiroko began cying hysterically. Hatsuma: Shall I make you progress further towards clinical depression? Hatsuma shot three missiles at the misshapen remains of the Feuerfrei, completely disintegrating the core. Once in a hysterical sadness, Hatsuma forced him past his emotional limits. His crying ceased. He began laughing. All he had ever hated in his life, now accumulated to Hatsuma. The bar that had previously increased now went past 100% all the way up to 160%. Hiroko kept laughing. He felt no remorse, only anger and the will to fight. Slowly, small things happened on the Hotaru 2. Then it happened like a flash. The plates on the mouth portion of the face recessed, showing a sinister black monstrosity. The shoulder fins spit along the center, and crimson energy flowed on, making larger bat wings. The forearm platings opened, and wide black energy blades slid out from the gaps. The most noticeable changes occured to the mega particle beam cannon. It now had a long, black beamblade running from the bottom to two times as long as the gun itself. The lights in the eyes turned from green to red, and the top of the helmet lifted, and a crest appeared. Various other minor changes occured, but to finish it, a black energy shield 'skin' slid over all of the armor, making the Hotaru 2 seem like it came straight from hell instead of being a saviour. After the transformation, Hatsuma calmly began talking to Hiroko again. Hatsuma: I mastered that several months again. Hatsuma effortlessly transformed in a far more timely manner, but looked completely different in the transformation. Hatsuma: Ahh, yes. You may have noticed our suits look exactly the same before transformation. In fact, when the IE found the NV-MAD7 was able to transform, they redid it and optimized it, and the NV-MAD7R should actually be the NV-MAD12, the most advanced NV-MAD suit to date, but because the model was the same we kept it. But, alas, they say the transformation is most affected by the personality and the reason for boosting neuron activity levels.. Hiroko: I don't care how powerful your suit is. You're going to die. In lightning speeds no pilot had ever seen, they rushed to the center of the battlefield. Hiroko, only by instinct, rushed straight up to him and slashed at rapid speeds, all which were blocked by Hatsuma. Hatsuma's turrets popped up and shot blazing bullets, but the wide crimson wings of the Hotaru 2 protected him from the blasts. Hiroko countered and quickly pulled the Hyper Particle Beam Cannon into readiness, and fired straight down at Hatsuma. Hatsuma agily dodged, and and twelve IE suits within the blast were vaporized. Hatsuma readied his Hyper Beam Cannon and tried to get a lock, but Hiroko was being too agile for the sensors. Hiroko shot out his Super Funnels, and all five surrounded Hatsuma and continually fired with the power of the lower counterpart to the transformed Hyper Particle Beam Cannon, the Mega Particle Beam Cannon. Hatsuma doded every one except the last one, which skimmed the core, before he launched his funnels to get rid of them. They all destroyed each other. Hiroko was using too much of his nervous power on his attack with the funnels, and thus allowed Hatsuma to target him with his Hyper Particle Beam Cannon. He fired, and Hiroko thrusted right above it, but it still went straight through some 30 Polarian suits. Hiroko rushed up to Hatsuma with his beam cannon, and began slashing with the long sabre attached to it. Hatsuma countered with it. Hatsuma slashed low, and glanced Hiroko's leg armor. Hiroko slashed at the core, but was intercepted by Hatsuma's blade, but Hatsuma intercepted at the wrong time; Hiroko's cannon was pointing straight at the NV-MAD7R's head. Hatsuma panicked and fired his beam cannon, which was pointed under the Hotaru 2's arm, and hit the residential district of Polaris Prime, and kicked away from Hiroko as Hiroko fired the Hyper Particle Beam Cannon, which shot straight through the Aires. It slowly drifted down and exploded before hitting the ground. Enraged by Hatsuma's massacre of all of the innocent people in the residential district, he told Hatsuma.. Hiroko: Have you ever wondered why I call it the Hotaru 2? Hotaru is japanese for Firefly. My Great Grandfather had a mech called the Hotaru, that when he got to 200% nervous sync ratio with his prototype system, his mech bursted into flames - but wasn't harmed at all by them, and destroyed an entire planet's worth of structures. That is why the government that did what the IE is doing now failed! My father showed signs that he was capable, and I believe I can too! I hate the murdering of the innocent! The bar shot up to 180%. Hiroko:You murdered my father, Auriana, and many other families! 198%. Hiroko: Hahaha, well there's one thing that could possibly push me over 200.. coincidentally it was my great grandfathers's favorite song! Hiroko selects a file, and plays Rammstein's Zwitter (I reccomend you download it before my next post) The bar hits 207%, and he is engulfed in black flames. Meanwhile, in the tower, the executives of Polaris decide, Exec. One: The battle has gotten too dangerous for Polaris Primes' saftety. Put them in the Alternate dimension. All in favor say ai. All Execs.: Ai. The large orb at the top of Polaris Central begins glowing a fierce red, and shoots a beam at Hiroko and Hatsuma. Next thing Hiroko knew he was standing on a large black sphere, opposite from Hatsuma. DeathscytheX - 19 Jan 2003 04:28 am Post subject: IC: Auriana slowly opened her eyes for she thought she was dead only to be surrounded by a redish orb of light that dissapeared slightly after she saw it. 4 IE hellfury suits stood 30 feet away form her. Pilot 1: ha! its the governess! she'd be worth alot of bounty to the Boss.. Pilot 2: I dunno man I didnt like that thing that was surrounding her.. i have seen that somewhere before... Pilot 1: ah shut up.. someone get out and get her. Pilot 3: Ill do it. All 4 suits lose radar and raido ablities and high frequency static fills there cockpits. In a display of hellish heat a massive wall of fire explodes on the 4 suits. the Hellfurys were powerless to defend, the substance dropped upon them continued to burn and melt away at the armor, each pilot roasted inside of his own Mech as if they were in an oven. Auriana: Naplam Pods... thats highly illegal weaponry... Auriana sees the huge black mobile suit land infront of her. she fell back on her butt in shock. Auriana: ROB!!!!! *tears flowed down her face* you made it! that was that super shield around me! Rob: hey beautiful, sorry im alittle late, but i glad i didnt miss out on a party like this. The X unleashs its swarmer missiles causing devistation on the IE's front line. Auriana finds an abandon NV-MAD4 with a damanged shoulder near by and gets in it. to help the X fight. Auriana: thank you for coming... you saved my life. Rob: dont mention it.. I promised remember? where the hell is our back up.. Auriana: there arent many left, there are a few squads left, it looks pretty bad. Rob: wheres Hiroko? Auriana: I.. I dont know Rob: you dont need to be up here with that damanged mech, you were almost killed, your in no emotional state to battle.. Look for Hiroko. is Mukoro around? Auriana: Yes but I dont know where he is at.. Rob: ok.. you go ahead and start looking.. Auriana: but you cant stay here by yourself! Rob: Hey.. its me! im a crazy bastard remember? Ill get the remaining squads to join me.. my father was a commander I will hold on here.. now go! Auriana: be careful.... Auriana takes off in the NV-MAD4 to look for Hiroko, Rob fires a SL missile at a suit that was firing at her... the missile burried itself into its cockpit and exploded. Rob: brutal... Any available units this is The X, I need back up from all units at point 44E-87N. We wont go down men.. lets take care of these scumb bags and get them off your planet. Hoping Mukoro heard the message he pulled out both plasma rods and charged into the middle of a bunch of suits and started slicing away, Robs overly aggressive tactics caused confusion and panik in the organized IE ranks. After mowing down 5 or 6 suits he resorted to chain gun and vulcan cannon barrages, while watching out for snipers.. Rob: i could really use some long range units... Azrael - 19 Jan 2003 08:24 am Post subject: After disabling the Leviathan, Karasu was completely out of ammunition and very low on power. As much as he hated it, Mukuro still had the good sense to run. Immediately after exiting Polaris Prime's atmosphere, he hailed his command station on Teimas. Mukuro: I need all the suits and ships you can stand on Polaris Prime. How quickly can you be here? Jon [startled]: Ah...well...we can probably make it in about twenty minutes. Mukuro: Good. Is the cannon there? Jon: Yes. Mukuro: Bring it too. Mukuro ended the transmission and shut down all non-vital systems to let Karasu recharge. As he waited, he saw the battlefield turn a strange shade of red for an instant. At that moment the jump gate lit up, and a fleet of gunships appeared accompanied by several hundred mechs. Mukuro cut Karasu's systems back on and got a large energy rifle from one of the Archangel mechs. He mounted it on the right arm and headed down toward the surface again, with the battle group following. OOC: The gunships are long, thin ships about four times the length of a mech that basically function as artillery batteries. Gundam-Ranger-X - 19 Jan 2003 03:51 pm Post subject: After two minutes Revolution Massacre's systems powered up again. The radio crakkled and fizzed with a jumbled message. Only the last part was understandable : 'I could really use some long range units...' Instincs and good nature won over instantly. The mech did a 180 and re-entered the atmosphere. Not five minutes later Lev could see a large black mech fighting a seemingly insurmountable number of IE suits. Instantly Revolution Massacre grabed it's beam sniper riffle and began shooting at the IE suits, hiting the ones and the black mech rear and other around him. Reinforcements were headed for them. Lev thought quickly and locked on with his missiles and fired a voley of 30 LRMs. The reinforcements had turned and were now charging him. Another voley of 30 missiles decimated the remainding forces headed for it. Lev turned his attention back o the mysterious black mech to see that it was gaining the uper hand. The beam sniper riffle continue to ring as shot after shot was sent after IE mechs. DeathscytheX - 19 Jan 2003 04:09 pm Post subject: IC: Rob saw the suit take out IE suits like a pigs in a bucket, the Long range support he needed had arrived... it was the suit that passed by him on his way here. Rob: Pilot, Identify yourself Lev: just call me Lev Rob: Lev... *the news clip of the disupute in russia renewed in his had more clearly this time* hey your that guy tha.. Lev: yeah thats me. Rob: alright, nevermind that.. We have more units on the way, I'll take care of most of the close range battle until they get here.. I need you to take out those Chameleon IEs (their primary sniper suits) spread all over the place.. there about 17 of them. Lev: how do you know that... sensors aret suppose to beable to detect chameleons suits they are semi stealth.. Rob: offset your eletronic disruption senors to its lowest frequency, you will beable to pick them up easier, and with your weaponry it shouldnt be a prob just look for the orangish spots on ur monitor. A Deathreaper suit sneaks up behind Lev but is quickly hit by a SL Missile from the X. Rob then turns around and concentraits on disorganizing the IE's formations with extremely close melee. Rob: where is Mukuro?! Suddenly the Thunderforge bursts into flames as sleek gunships start pounding it with heavy artillery. Rob: AIR SUPPORT! finally! thoes battle cruisers need to be pushed back.. they have never ending supplies of mechs. More units arrive to behind Rob. Pilot: Would you like some help sir? Rob: Well i was having fun here all by myself, but whats a party with out a few buds? lets kick ass and take names boys. Gundam-Ranger-X - 19 Jan 2003 10:33 pm Post subject: 'Alright I'll give it a shot.' Lev said as he lowred his sensors frequency to there lowest setting and shure enough, orangeish spots were visible. 'And now the fun beggins.' Revolution Massacre fired on one of the suits that were in range. It was destroyed without even knowing it was seen. however the other Chamelion suits now knew there cover was blown, but still they remained cloaked. Two of them opened fire on there enemy. Lev easily avoided the first round and just bearly managed to get away from the path of the second. 'Woah ! These guys aren't half bad.' In responce to this Lev turned on his targeting computer, knowing that he would be unable to fire on suits that were within the 100m minimum targeting range. This however was no problem for now he wold be able to lock on to four mechs. Lev shot at and destroyed a forth that was within visible range, then switched to the dual gatling cannon and chased down the remaning 12. When he found one, he charged it and fired at it when it came into 300m of distance. This confused the enemy pilots who weren't prepared for it. Not long passed before almost all the Camelion suits were gone. However Lev's new tactic had depleted what little amo was left in his gatling cannon. 'Well looks like it's back to the drawing board.' The three remaining mech had grouped tightly toghether and had managed to pin him down behind a hill. 'This is bad,' LEv did a quick system's check. 'Hmmm, I've got about 80 LRMs left. That just might work.' With blinding speed Revolution Massacre took off in the air and launched all it's remaining missiles. The IE Pilots saw this and fired in a spread just before they were engulfed in the barage of missiles. The first of wich was easily doged followed by the near hit........ but the third found it's mark, sortof, and stuck Lev's mech in the leg. 'Damn that ain't good ! but at least they're dead.' Lev switched on his radio. 'Hey Big Black mech, I took care of those Chamelions.' DeathscytheX - 19 Jan 2003 11:27 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: well done.. call me Rob.. proceed at your own will. ammuntion and repairs can be found at the hangers at the far east of the city. We are working on taking down the battle cruisers.. they are the source of all these units.. im sure with that insane range of yours you'd have a field day on evacutating units. Altho Mukuro's forces had arrived Rob had yet to see him. Him, Mukuro's forces and what was left of the Polarian Elite were gaining ground on the quickly depleting units that the IE were dishing out.. the Thunderforge retreated while the Centaur was freash and releasing most of the suits... the gunner ships were working on its haul, its sheilds were down 56%. Rob kept thinking about what happend with Hiroko's suit and where it dissapeared too.. Rob: Auriana Come in. Auriana: I here you Rob, How are you doing down there? Rob: We have gained the upper hand for now, have you found any signs of the Hotaru 2 or Hiroko? Auriana: No... I may know where to find him.. Im getting my uncle, to help me.. he may know more about this situation Rob: what situation? Auriana: it would sound too weird to explain right now.. I will tell you after its all over.. you guys keep up the good work. Rob: roger that... becareful Auriana.. tell me as soon as you locate Hiroko. Auriana: ok I will.. dont get killed now . Rob continued his assault, despite being out of swarmers he still had plenty of chain gun and vulcan shells left along with a few SL missiles. coolkam007 - 20 Jan 2003 01:12 am Post subject: ooc: edit- ?s have been answered thanks to DX ~~~ *mid-battle* YOU THINK THATS GOING TO STOP ME?! heh 3 on one? im glad your mothers taught you honor and how to fight fair.

I think Cpt. Wedge: Im sorry Iyashu. I was givin orders to keep the Alexander safe at all costs. If I let you go, the enemies might fallow you back and the Alexanders cover would be blown. Iyashu: pfft! *crosses arms* bullcrap i say! .. by the way, where are my parts? Its been a freekin week, theres only so simulation training a person can take before they go nuts. Wedge: Ah, I almost forgot. Your parts came in last night. I must admit, im a bit puzzled why you got those particular pieces of equipment. Normally those are just for our automation repair bots. Iyashu: Exactly! You'll have to see later I suppose. I must go out to the garage to get to work. Vyper - 20 Jan 2003 09:28 pm Post subject: Auriana landed in Polaris Central again. She ran up to the control room which was right below the tower, and punched in the keycode to the tower. The doors hadn't opened for a very long time, and when it opened, stairs in a state of disrepair went all the way to the top. One of the executives yelled, 'Miss Auriana, you are not authorized to go in there!' '-I don't care!', she retorted. She ran up the stairs and her uncle persued her. She ran up some eighty stairs while being pursued when a stair bent extremely and tripped her. Her uncle clasped her by the shoulders. Auriana: Let go of me! Hiroko might be getting killed! Uncle: What are you supposed to do about it, huh? It's not like you're going to be able to interfere!! Auriana: But.. I ]love him. OOC Factoid: In Polarian culture, simply saying love is not to be taken lightly; it's like dedicating yourself to him/her for the rest of your life. OOC Factoid 2: Polaris live up to three times longer than humans. It is still unknown who's genes affecting life expectancy are in effect for Hiroko, however. (Maybe even incomplete dominance) IC: Uncle: :: gasp :: Are you crazy?? He's a human! Auriana: He's actually half Polarian. Uncle: Whatever.. I guess you're stuck with him for the rest of your life then. I'll get the mechanisms moving. Auriana: What mechanisms? Soon, the stairs began moving upwards at a very fast pace, taking the two with them. Some ten minutes later, they arrived at the top. It was something Auriana had never seen before. Occasionally bolts of energy would shoot from the outside orb into a smaller orb in the center. It was like being inside a huge plasma globe. Auriana looked at the small orb in the center, and gasped. She could see Hiroko fighting Hatsuma inside. However, inside of the alternate dimension, they were just the size of the palm of her hand. ---------------------------------------------------- Hatsuma: H-how could you.. Hiroko: I doubt you went in training for this (sneer) Hiroko shoots after Hatsuma. Hatsuma panicks and runs from him. The engulfed Hotaru 2, however, was almost 1.5 times faster. Hatsuma turns his Hyper Particle Beam Cannon back at the Hotaru 2, and tries locking. In the smaller screen between his legs, it reads, 'Shinigami, locking 20%' Hatsuma thinks to himself, 'What?!!? Shinigami? Heheh.. lets try something.' Hiroko was right behind him when Hatsuma's lock reached 100%. Instead of pulling the trigger, he pressed a small, manually installed button out of convenient reach. His HUD read, 'Mech data downloaded. This form is possible with your current configuration. Proceed? Y/N' Hatsuma pressed Y on the HUD, and his mech became engulfed in flames as well. 'WHAT!!?!!?' , Hiroko screamed. Hatsuma sneered and sped back after him. Hatsuma said, 'Hiroko, you do not understand the principle of this suit. The NV-MAD7 was the only suit to feature Polarian engineering. This suit is capable of reflecting it's pilot's character, which is why you became the God of Death; you were bent of revenge. I spent four years studying this suit, and am indeed capable of higher levels regardless of my bloodline. It's foolish to say you're great just because your grandpa did something. Now let me reveal this suit's true potential.' Hatsuma powered back to the regular state. The same transformation as the first transformation occured, but everything was white. Everything was also considerably faster than the crimson form. 'On to level two.' This time, the mechanics themselves transformed. Certain parts disappeared and others appeared on it. 'Hiroko, that is Polaris interdimensional transforming in action. The Polaris made a tiny dimension just for the storage of the transformation parts, and I am withdrawing and depositing into this dimension.' The beam sabre extended twise in length, and the face smoothed down, and a small indention appeared where the mouth should be. 'And finally, level three.' The entire suit was engulfed in a white light. The armor plating melded and became smooth. The fire ended, and it revealed a feminine figure, with protusions from the cockpit and there was some of the helmet left on top. Even the boosters were incorporated into the shoulderblades. There were no visible joints, but it wasn't alive either. The eyes slid open and blue shined. Two more antimatter beam sabres slid out of its wrists, and it grabbed them. It thrusted straight at Hiroko and began slicing mercilessly at him. It was so fast he couldn't black any of the attacks. Hiroko: What the... ---------------------- Auriana: NOOOOO!!! Auriana's uncle looked up into the sky to see a large, wide thing entering the atmosphere, evident by a large burning line in the sky. Gundam-Ranger-X - 20 Jan 2003 10:12 pm Post subject: 'I'd go and reload if I was't shure you didn't have the amo i need, but at least I can take out the incoming IE mechs.' Revolution Massacre let loose with it's beam sniper cannon and took out IE mech after IE mech. However for every one he shot down, two more took it's place. 'Rob, this isn't working I've got a plan on how to dissable the cruisers but I'm gonna need some good cover.' <Warning ! Large anomaly ditected aproching from space.> Lev looked up and to his horror saw the large thing he had shot at earlyer. 'Oh no ! It's here !' DeathscytheX - 20 Jan 2003 11:04 pm Post subject: IC: Rob finished off a NV-MAD11 he had been deuling with for a few minutes when everything got dark all of the sudden.. as if it was night. Rob: dang that was a tough suit.... whao who turned out the lights? Rob looked up in horror an ultra massive unfinished vessel like thing appeared in the sky ecliping the sun. It was the thing he saw on the scanner before he arrived... it finally made it and it was worse than anything he could have ever imagined. Rob: what in the flaming IE personel is that?! Lev: Rob... forget my plan.. we might have to evacuate from here.. I dont thin this planet is gonna be here much longer. Rob: We must stay and fight to the end! Mukuro finally arrived near Rob and commanded the gunships to consentrait all fire on the massive object.. the artilary just deflected off the haul like marshmellows. suddenly a massive bluish white light appeared along with a ear drum brusting explosion the X was knocked back into a near by building from the shockwave. Mukuro watched in horror as all of the gun ships were falling to the ground chared as if they were burning for hours. Rob: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Super Ionic Warheads!! those bastards! how the hell did they managed to build something so huge without anyone knowing?!.......... computer analyze weaponry on that thing Computer: The vessel is no match to anything in the database.. however it features 50 Ionic Nukes on board, An ultra sized cannon that runs of an energy source, and super cannon that is not completeed yet. The X gets back up and charges up. Rob: UPC OVERKILL!!! you bastards are going down! The X charges up the UPC for overkill mode and fires directly in the center of the object but hit explodes before it hits and a reddish orb could temporarly be seen around it as the exploshion occured. Rob was shocked beyond belief... he froze... Rob: A.... hypersheild. The Com turns recieves a message Com: This is Commander Shiron Veshard of the IE, you pathetic fools and your crusade are finished... now witness the power of The new pride of the IE! The object unlessed a massive beam of light onto the surface of the planet and legions of Polarian, Mukuro, and even IE suits were destoryed. Rob: you sick bastards... your own men. Weapons operator: Sir! the Vessel is overheating! the antimatter cannon is not completed, this is what i expected. Commander: pull us out of orbit. head back to Starbase A9EX-8 for further construction. the Object starts to exit the atmosphere. the battle field was scared.. the remaining battle cruisers retreated when it arrived.. few suits on any side were left. Rob: What the hell.. what the HELL! what was that!! everyone stands around silently not knowing what to think... even the IE suits were kinda in shock.. the battle was not over, but now the playing field was not in the IEs favor... the cruisers were gone. Vyper - 20 Jan 2003 11:58 pm Post subject: The Central Polaris tower shook violently, throwing Auriana and her uncle on the floor. Her uncle yelled, 'You can stay up here - we're going to start evacuating!' Her uncle got in the pod and it screamed down the stairs. Soon after, he got into the command center. Uncle: I'm glad you already began procedures for evacuation. Commander One: Yes, we will head to the colonies of Polaris Minor. There is one problem, however. Uncle: And that would be..? Commander Two: ... it seems the IE have set up a blockade all around the planet. The only way to get those unarmed shuttles to the colonies without getting shot down is to head the same way as the battlecruisers; they've cleared the blockade for them. Uncle: And that is a problem how..? Commander Two: The battlecruisers are traveling at such a velocity that in the ten minutes it takes to get the currently on standby evacuation vessels out of there, they would pass directly under the battlecruisers. Uncle: Preposterous! How is breaking through some armed suits at high speeds less dangerous than flying directly under two battlecruisers and a giant weapon with many ionic nucleur warheads?? Commander One: Yes, it does seem dangerous, but the battlecruisers are retreating and aren't on standby, so the only dangers would be the turrets the short time they were under the battlecruisers. Uncle (reluctantly): Fine, send out the evacuation message. A clearly defined alarm sounded from speakers all over Polaris Prime, but wasn't neeeded as everyone who feared for their lives were already in the bunkers, three miles from the evacuation vessels, and had been as long as the civil war had been going on: three months. Gundam-Ranger-X - 20 Jan 2003 11:59 pm Post subject: Revolution Massacre skidded backwards several hudred feet but managed to stay upright due to it's heavy weight. Lev watched as the large object unleashed it's beam. 'Those poor bastards.' He watched as the Polarian, Mukuro and IE mech blew up. 'Those batsards ! They killed there own men ! By no way is that acceptable ! So many dead ! NEVER AGAIN !!!!' Revolution lifted it's PPSC and fired straight at the large vessel. It struck the sheild and after a few tense seconds breiched it. However this had used up almost all of the beams power and it dissipated just as it hit the hull. Then the mech fell to one knee, powerless in the aftermath of it's attack.

IC: For the first time in many years, Mukuro was terrified. When he saw the devestation that the large ship had caused in one shot, he thought of his own homeworld charred and barren. In a moment of desperate fear, he turned the shock cannon toward the ship and began charging. Rob: It's no good...remember what happened with the UPC? Frustrated, Mukuro slowly lowered the cannon. Mukuro: Fine. So what do we do now? Rob: They're going to be evacuating the city to Polaris Minor soon. The only way through is under the cruisers, and they'll need some support. Mukuro: *sighs* Well, it's something. You coming? Gundam-Ranger-X - 21 Jan 2003 12:22 am Post subject: DeathscytheX wrote: OOC: hypershields cannot be breiched. oops.

Mukuro: Rob.... Rob.. are you coming? Rob: no.... I will take care of the rest of the remaining units. you assist in the evac. The IE pilots that remained were still in shock and surrendered, Rob was so enraged he didnt care, he desimated suit after suit mercilessly... all he could think about is how many people were killed today... how defenseless they were against such a monstrousity. he used his naplam pods to brutally roast pilots in there suits. out of vulcan cannon rounds and low on chain gun ammo Rob pulled out his plasma rods and resorted to melee.. the IE could do nothing.. most of them were out of ammo, and power anyways. it was the Main reason for there surrender... But there surrender wasnt good enough for Rob.. they all had to die... they had to pay for the crimes of their organization. cyberlink - 21 Jan 2003 08:26 am Post subject: OOC: sorry guys, is been a while, well 2 days? >.< ill jump in and continue, i HAVE read all the posts!!! took 1 hour! well here goes!

Spike: So were are we going then? Denethor: We're heading to Tau Ceti. I need to get a few new weaponry additions that I ordered three weeks ago. They should be in. I just hope my contacts in the IE reasearch plant there haven't sold me out yet. Spike: Yea thats our only hope. I can probably get a redesign for the Stalker here also.

IC: The last IE suit fell to the ground, The X fell to its knees... Rob breathed heavily with sweat coming down his face dripping off the end of his nose. Sun set was begining on Polaris Prime. Rob looks around the area, most all the buildings where decimated, a huge crater where the Anti-Matter cannon had stuck the surface could be see, and thousands of mobile suits and mech parts were scattered across the field. The plasma rods stoped glowing and were put away. Rob: Computer.. I thought I told you never to activate the darkfury mode. Computer: Activation was necessary to overcome the odds of defeating 46 suits. Rob: Never do that again unless I say so, which i probably never will. The only reason I put that on here is to help power the Hypersheild and Overkill mode.. Thoes suits were out of ammo and only a few of them didnt have shorted out beam sabers. Computer: understood. Rob: How is Mukuro and them doing with the Evac? Computer: The 1st wave of ships have caught up with the Aries, which is the 1st ship scheduled to reach the barrier, The Centaur will follow and the Thunderforge will procede after that. Rob: keep me updated on the progress incase they need cover. In the mean time lets head back to the west hanger to reload on ammo, on what ever they may have for me. Computer: The west hanger is not in operation, the east hanger is the only repair and refule facility that has not been destroyed. Rob: I know that, But I already know it doesnt have what we need. the West hanger however has been closed for years, maybe they have some old stock pile thats compatable. The X heads off to the west hanger leaving the devastated battlefield. Gundam-Ranger-X - 21 Jan 2003 10:14 pm Post subject: The two minutes finally expired and Revlution Masacre could once again move. The first thing Lev noticed was that there were no IE suits left. They had appearently been desrtoyed. 'Hmmmmm now what do I do ?' He noticed that Robs mech was flying off somewhere. 'Now where's he off to. Well I might as well follow.' With this Revolution Massacre took off and headed for the X. DeathscytheX - 21 Jan 2003 11:10 pm Post subject: Rob reached the West Hanger, it was a run down building he busted a whole in the wall with the X's fist and walked in.. he activated the power with his consol and the lights turned on. Rob got out of the X and looked around, he found many old weaponry ammuntions. Rob: Just my luck! Swarmers and SL missiles. Ill have to refill the vulcan and chain gun at the east hanger.. Rob resupplied the ammo on the X, he even found a few naplam pods... he had to be careful putting them in. since they were so old the shelling on them could have been aged to fragileness. He started on repairs, he got back in the cockpit with the hatch open to get some fresh air, and checked all the computer systems. He started to think what would happen next after he left Polaris Prime. Azrael - 21 Jan 2003 11:16 pm Post subject: OOC: I'll post on this later. There's not really enough time to tonight. Vyper - 21 Jan 2003 11:23 pm Post subject: IC: Kagi (Auriana's uncle) ran out to the holding bay, where all twenty evacuation starbridges were all ready firing the engines to their maximum strength, and were all in braces. All of the doors were still open, still loading cargo. Kaji walked in and saw families and groups huddling together, some crying, but most had blank faces, overwhelmed by what was happening. He heard some freaked out women, and couldnt help but eavesdropping.. Woman 1: I hear a gunner's causing a problems! Woman 2: Yeah, I know! I hear he's threatening to make the ship take off! Woman 1: Why? Woman 2: He's probably freaked out from what all's happening. Woman 1: Why do they have a gunner on this ship anyways? Woman 2: You're not too bright are you Go bother someone else. Woman 3: I hope we aren't attacked by the supercruiser.. Kaji instantly went to the bridge to investigate. He punched in his all-access ID number into the hall door, and was about to enter through the bridge door when he was approached by a lightly armed guard. Guard: I'm sorry, there is a disturbance in the bridge right now, please leave. Kaji: This is the supreme governor *flashes badge* I believe I AM authorized to enter. The door opened, and the gunner in the indention to the back left of the cockpit was sitting, facing the guards, with a gun in his mouth. Gunner: I'll do it.. I'll do it! Kaji: What do you want? Gunner: Leave NOW or I'm killing myself! Kaji: Kid, if we let you have your way a whole lot more than just you would die. Kaji approached him and reached for his gun, when the teen gunner freaked and shot the harness with his respective turret. Kaji: YOU MORON!! The guards shot him dead and instantanelously, the ship broke through the other side of the harness, and shot straight on the course. Captain: CLOSE THE DOORS NOW!!! By the time he doors had slid down, some twenty people had been pulled out by the velocity and one was pinched under the door. There was some brief turbulence from the atmosphere, and they broke into space, and were stunned to see the IE blockade. Suits all looked and tried locking, when an elite suit thrusted up in front of them. They screamed briefly went it took its high-powered beam sabre sliced clean through the hull. The passengers went silent for the one second before it blew up. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hiroko didn't have a clue how he was supposed to beat Hatsuma. Hatsuma thrusted backwards really fast, and shot his Hyper Particle Beam Cannon at Hiroko. In a reflex, Hiroko shot his cannon back at Hatsuma. The beams merged and created a giant energy ball, which got five times as large as either of the suits, and when the cannons shots ended, the ball stayed there. It's shape warbled, and began deforming faster and more to an extreme degree. Hiroko yelled in his cockpit, 'Oh no - it's destabilizing!' He made the Hotaru crouch and crossed his arms in front of him, bracing for the blast. The center turned red, and it exploded, sending a shockwave on the small surface, and the shockwave met on the opposite side of the artificial planet, sending inertia straight up, into the glass. It cracked in derections like that of a basketball. At this instance, all of everything on Polaris Prime fluctuated incoherently. Mechs seemed to be made out of jello, water was flying. But what they saw next shocked them: the explosion of two combined Hyper Particle Beam Cannons had ripped a hole in the dimension, and they could see through the hole, the empty battlegrounds. It began closing. They both ran as fast as they could for the hole, as their boosters were dry. They were right next to each other, and then Hatsuma shoved the Hotaru 2 on the floor. Hatsuma ran through, and Hiroko struggled to get up in his suit. It was halfway up when it was almost impossible to get through, he jumped for the gap, but tripped. Auriana ran up to the core where the alternate dimension resided. She ran up and punched the surface, but she was electrocuted and thrown back. She pulled out her gun and shot it several times. Every time she shot the sphere, everything warbled in the alternate dimension. It finally broke through. The electricity powered down, and was instead transfered into a furious and deadly rage on Polaris Prime. She ran up to the sphere and punched it several times, and ripped it open from the hole in the sphere. To her horror, Hiroko was still the size she saw him in the sphere. She took him out and ran down the stairs, with the Hotaru 2 in her hands. Meanwhile, every other acre was constantly being hit by lightning. Huge tornadoes formed everywhere, and the surface was violently shook by earthquakes. Many fault lines appeared and magma flowed out. Polaris Central began to tip over. Auriana realized that amount of stairs was hopeless, and thought for a second. 'This is my home! My Zephyr is still here!' She traced a symbol on her palm, and a very throaty roar could be heard in the bays. A large, organic ship roared straight up the tower, and busted into the tower, and opened a door. She got in, and made for space. Remembering the blockade, she activated one of its trademark features, cloak.

Rob: what the hell is going on.. that thing must be back! Computer: Warning atmostpheric decompression in progress.. oxygen levels dropping dramatically across the planet. Rob: holy crap! I gotta get out of here. tremendous winds started pushing the X around, the facility started to crumble, Rob boosted out and saw what was going on outside, tornadoes, vulcanic activity, earthquakes, everything was going on. Rob knew he couldnt get out off the planet under these conditions he had to look for a transport out. Rob: Computer locate a transport! Fast! Computer: Nearest transport *makes a mark on the screen* The X went full throddle off into the direction, he pasted Lev on the way. Rob: YOU HAVE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE! This planet is gonna blow! The X flew at maximum speed the winds pushed it around, rob had to fight to keep stability. the X wasnt built for areodynamics in high winds. he finally arrived... it was the Zanzabar the bay door was open, Rob did a sloppy landind into the bay slaming into the back wall the doors closed, He jumped out of the X which was laying on its side and entered the ship. Rob: Shiva! take off! get us off this planet! Shiva: cannot comply, you are not the authorized pilot of this vessel. Rob: Dammit shiva we dont have time for this, scan the planet, if you dont get us off here, you will be scrap along with me. Hiroko is gone! now GO!! Shiva: Very well The Zanzabar takes off and leaves the planet, The blockade was waiting for Rob, they opened fire on the zanzabar. Rob started typing things into the console, rerouting circuts and lines. Shiva: These functions are not stable, they can overload the system. Rob: its a chance that has to be taken, its the only way we can get through them. Rob finishes putting in the commands and he runs back to the control room and inserts a device into the core of the zanzabar. interoir power is lost and all the consols and lights go out.. but a Hypersheild forms on the outside and the Zanzbar makes it through the blockade. Rob looks back at Polaris prime and sees the yellowish atmosphere get slowly consumed with black as if someone spilt ink into fresh water. Rob: what happend... we won.. we defeated them.. and yet we still lost! *pounds the console* Rob takes the device out of the core and power is restored and the shield goes away. he walks back to the bay and sits in the X he puts the device back into a slot where he took it out. and mounted the X correctly in the bay. He looked at the other slot where the Hotaru-2 once stood. Rob: sorry pal, I hope im wrong about you being dead.. I'll take care of your ship. Rob walks back into the control room Rob: shiva.. you can reset ur configurations to default now. Shiva: thank you.. that was very innovative but please do not do that again. Rob: yeah yeah yeah... wheres the coffee in this joint? Shiva: I do not know Rob: Just set a corse to starblade Shiva: I do not know where or what starblade is.. Rob: Ill put in the coordinates. Rob sets a course for Starblade, but when he reaches it, it is destroyed.. Rob looked on in horror. Rob: OMG! GORDON!!... shiva.. scan for life signs.. Shiva: none detected but there is a weak signal.. it seems to be a video feed. Rob: patch us up. the Screen pops up and gordon is shown. Gordon: hello Rob.. the IE found me out.. Dont worry I am not dead. I have left for Mars, I have a little place there with some family, I havent seen them in a long time. I hope you are doing alright, i see your causing a stir in the polaris system, I cant supply you any more.. I hope you understand, you have been like a son to me Rob. My family means to much to me. Hopefully one day we can meat again... *end* Rob: *sigh of releaf* Thanks Gordon... for everything.... Shiva.. set a corse for Copheria in the Vexor system. Shiva: why do you want to go there? Rob: Shut up and just do it Shiva: Setting corse.. arrival aproximatly 18 hours. Rob: thank you! geez.. update me on any IE that we could incounter.. ill be back here. Rob heads to the shower to wash up and get some rest. Gundam-Ranger-X - 22 Jan 2003 12:25 am Post subject: 'Man this day keeps getting better and better. ' Lev powerd up the verniers to maximum and tried to make a break for orbit but everytime he did the winds threw him around like a ragdoll. 'Damn it ! This isn't working. I guess I have no choice now.' Lev punched in a command. Almost as soon as he did a deep electronic voice rang out. 'I was begginig to think you didn't like me. Lev: Shut up Caball. I need to get into space and I need you to compenaste for windspeed and diretcion. Caball : If that is what you want.' And with that Revolution Massacre took off once again, this time it made to space. 'Caball set a course for Vega, ignore those IE mechs and just fly right past them.' Azrael - 22 Jan 2003 01:25 am Post subject: The first wave of transports (the ones that Mukuro was guarding) made it off the planet just in time to see the second wave consumed in the storm that Polaris Prime was becoming. As he looked down at the helpless transports, the image of Teimas suffering the same fate flashed in Mukuro's mind again. A chill ran down his spine, and he shook it off. He docked in one of the larger transports and went to talk to the commander, who he found nearby in the hangar. Mukuro: How many? Commander: Six million from the transports, roughly forty-three from the war. Fortunately most of the civilians had the good sense to leave early on. Mukuro: That ship... Commander: A secret project of the IE. We knew they were building it, we just didn't think it would be ready so soon. Mukuro: They're going to take it back to the Polaris system once it's repaired, you know. Commander: I know. We'll bring it down somehow. In the meantime, what kind of bootlegged mech is that? From what I've seen it works alright, but some of those parts--the armor, the boosters, and that god-awful cannon weighing down the right arm to name a few--belong in the IE specials or a second-rate black market. If you're going to stay on for a while, I'd be happy to have our engineers give it an overhaul. Mukuro: That's fine. Just don't take out the mass drivers. Commander: I doubt they'd need to take those out anyway. I'll go tell them now and let them get started. It should be ready in a few days. Mukuro: Thanks, I appreciate it. The commander began to walk off, and Mukuro had one final thought. Mukuro: If...if Polaris Minor comes under heavy attack like Prime, you could send the people to Teimas. It's not as warm or bright, and the desert will take getting used to, but with the endorsement of my guild they would be welcome. The commander thought for a minute, and then spoke. Commander: If it comes to that, we'll send the civilians. In the meantime, we need all the extra military support we can get. If you can spare any ships or mechs, we would be grateful. Mukuro: If we can spare any...that used to not be a question. He walked off to his temporary quarters on the ship. He drank half a bottle of Ceti vodka trying to forget the screams of the dead and then went to sleep. cyberlink - 22 Jan 2003 11:23 am Post subject: OOC: why does every one seem to forget me in this? IC: The Austoria caught up with the Karasu and assisted in the evacuation of polaris prime. The distruction of the planet was all too much and Rei suffered severe emotional distress remembering what happened to his own home planet all those years ago. Rei: uhh,...MMI i just dont know if i can do this anymore, MMI:*I do not understand* Rei: of course you wouldent your just a heartless mechine!! what can you possibally understand MMI:*I understand that you are fatigued and is severe stress. Maybe i can help...* Rei: NO! NO DRUGS! MMI:*the diazipam will help you relax rei, you wont have so much to worry about, You are a mech pilot rei. you have to continue. As i see it i have learned from previous experiences that you just dont give up. and taking recent occurances into concideration you must continue to fight to overcome the IE. you wont be able to do it alone, then again neither can the other pilots.* Rei: what other pilots, are you on about The X and the Kasaru? MMI:*correct, also i have updated my battle sewuence data base and there seems to be others like them fighting the IE.* Rei: explain... MMI:*In prevoius battle that were faught against the IE the same pilots kept on appearing, Rob Opsulous of the X, Hiroko Katsuragi of the Hotaru - 2, Iyashu Kotome of the Juper 4, and Mukuro Hitashi of the Karasu. Rei: so there are others, I MUST CONTINUE! MMI:*incomming transmission* Rei: transmit. *Pilot of the Austoria this the evac ship 201 please respond...* Rei: evac ship 201 this is the pilot of the austoria, send mosseage over... Evac 201: we have confermed that you are in need of refueling please dock in cargo bay 6. Rei: what? Rei takes a look at the fuel meter and realizes that he is litrally running on particle fumes. Rei: roger evac 201. proceeding to cargo bay 6 Rei pilots the Austoria to the cargo bay and exits his suit. he is greeted by hundreds of people who are applauding and cheering. Unknown: good evening rei, I am the captain of this evac ship. it is my honour to have such a vallient pilot on this ship, how can we repay you?? Rei: wha... i dont know what you are on about.... i just helped out witht he evac thats all. I arrived too late to fight. Commander: ah, sorry my missunderstanding. well helping out in the evac is just a noble thing. risking your life out there protecting our citizens. what plannet are you from? you dont look like you are friom around these parts. Rei: it doesnt matter where I came from. it no longer existes... COMMANDER: oh... yet again my appologies. Rei: commander I need refueling as you said, yould you please hurry as im not comfortable in this situation. Commander: but of course, if you could just state your reactor type and ill have my men replace it for you, Rei: it is a v220 type particle reactor. Commander: ohh, your talking about some power there.. this ship runs on a v100 Particle reactor. well i best get to it, help your self to some food in the canteen. With that the commander left and the crouds departed. Rei hedded towards the canteen and began eating.. a while passed and rei decided to get some rest. all of a sudden he was awaken by a voilent shake from the rear of the ship!

I see i wont have to rewire you after all Shiva: why would that be neccessary? Rob: because when we were on Prime you refused to take commands from me.. i thought I may have needed to access the system to fix the autorized pilot ordeal. Shiva: You still are not the authorized pilot, but with the fact that you have been on board, and knew Hiroko. I can work with you. Rob: geez thanks. anyways patch us up to Copheria's gamma reigon, establish a link to Phenok Berreli. Shiva: link established. Rob: Yo P.B. Berreli: Rob? heeeey whats going on.. good to see that you ok.. i thought you may have bit the big one on Polaris. Rob: naaah.. hey i need to use your Broadcaster... since your the top government official on Copheria, I thought you could maybe hook me up? Berreli: sure anything for the unknown hero of the sepratists... what for? Rob: well I found a few things about the IE I'd like to reviel.. and I guess its time to reviel who the Pilot of the X is too most of the universe... Im sure the Viceroy has been wondering forever... he will be in for a shock. Berreli: aaah finally you are gonna take credit for you deeds.. I'll let the city know you are coming. Rob: thanks P.B. I owe you. Berreli: no.. it is all of us that owe you. Rob: heh... I see you in a few hours *ends transmission* Rob sits down in the longue and sips on some fresh coffee. It was different now... Gordon wasnt there to complain about how it was bad for him. He didnt have starblade anymore so he would have to rely on the Copherians for supply.. Copheria is a desolate planet with only a few cities.. it has great influance thoughout the galaxy because under its rocky surface is a never ending supply of special metals that make up many starbases and colonies, these metals can only be found on 33 planets in the whole universe, it was once 34 but earth was stripped dry of it. The few cities all know rob very well, It is the only planet that knew he was the Pilot of the X. And since the Copherians never leave their planet due to their anatomy not fairing well in zero gravity.. his secret was safe with them. But after today that wouldnt matter anymore. Vyper - 22 Jan 2003 07:10 pm Post subject: The Zephyr was heading for Earth.. Auriana could consult her brother with help on how to remedy Hiroko's strange problem. Auriana: I'm going to excercise now, don't get any ideas. In fact, you stay right here on the desk! I'll leave a plate full of water for you if you get thirsty! Hiroko: Auriana leaves and gets on a treadmill and starts running at a strenuous pace. Hiroko wonders, 'I wonder why she'd tell me not to get any strange ideas if she was going excercising..' Hiroko jumped down from the desk onto the recliner, and got on the footrest. He remotely controlled the Hotaru 2 with his psychic amp, and it pushed the bar on the recliner, slowly lowering the footrest onto the ground. He ran up to the door to the hallway, and the gap between the bottom of the door and the floor came up to his waist. He crawled under, and ran for the excercise room, where he could hear the droning noise of the treadmill, buzzing when her feet came in contact with the moving floor. He decided to try to climb under that door, but she had stuffed a towel at the crease. He heard her turn it off (getting down was very time consuming) and he panicked. He ran back into the living room, and got on the footrest. He tried getting the Hotaru 2 to power up and push it down, but because it was harder pushing it back down than opening it, he ran up to the bar to try and help. He jumped on the bar as the Hotaru was boosting. It began wiggling more, and in a snap, the bar jumped back up and the recliner closed. Hiroko was knocked off of the bar and into one of Auriana's other pair of shoes. He heard her walk in, and ran into the front, and muttered, 'This is very bad.' Auriana walked up to the desk where she was expecting him, and groaned, 'Now where has that trouble maker gone off to..' she sighed, slipped off her excercising shoes, and slid into her casual ones. Hiroko: DeathscytheX - 23 Jan 2003 12:34 am Post subject: IC: Rob arrives at Corpheria, he Docks the Zanzabar at the Government Facility, the cockpit opens to thousands of people standing outside cheering and yelling 'Ziet Ruib' (Hail Rob in Corpheria's Native language). Rob smiled at the display and jumped down to meet Berreli face to face. Berreli: its been a while since you have visited my old friend.. they miss you.. last time we saw you the Dreadnaught was in prototype stage. Rob: yeah I been pretty busy. Berreli: ah yes, of course.. lets get you patched up to the broadcasting system. Rob and Phenok went to the boardcasting room, he preped all the systems so it couldnt be traced... all of the channels in the major regoins of the universe were about to be priated for a few minutes (about 51% of the galaxies). Berreli: alright just hit the button and your ready to go. TV stations across the universe short and show Rob Rob: Greetings Citizens of the Federation, Its Government, and Fellow separitists. I am Rob Opsulous, son of Jim Opsulous the legendary ace of the IE. I am also something the Intergalatic Federation has been wondering for a while. I am the 2nd greatest Pilot ever... my father being the 1st.. I am behind the superior tatics that have been a thorn in the Intergalactic Enforces side... you see, It is I who Pilots the mobile suit you know as the X. I have found many knew things about the IE.. for one, they killed my father. Thats right... Jim Opsulous was incharge of the black op 'Project X', when the Crest Croperation took over the project, my father continued to work on his... so they got rid of him. Not only that but I also learned the IE created Crest. As you have recently heard on the news, there was a Dispute on Polaris Prime... a peaceful planet that has lived neutral for thousands of years.. The Federation wanted it for its rich resources, but the people refused to destory their planet by stripping it of its materials no matter how much money was offered. Polaris Prime would have ended up like Earth if they gave in... now its like Polaris Minor.. uninhabitable. Thats right, thanks to the IE's tatics they sacrificed many lifes of there own people.. killed many innocent polarians, and destoryed a once beatuiful planet, on top of that they didnt gain anything from it. The IE has also created some... mega weapon of mass destruction.. what I am about to show you is a sick display of cowardace. *shows the anti-matter cannon firing on Polaris Primes surface taking out many suits and alot of their own with it* This mechanical monstrousity took out people on its own side.. It goes to show you the IE will do anything to get what ever they want... even if it means sacrificing you. This is what the federation has become... now you know why I do what I do... I hope you understand my cruleness towards the IE... that is all I have to say.. I thank you for your time. *ends transmission* Berreli: bravo rob.. bravo. you should stay for a while.. we shall celebrate your achivements. Rob: sounds good I havent had a good meal and a long time. A huge party was thrown that night with lots of food and drink. Rob got a full nights sleep for the 1st time in months. Its just what the doctor ordered. That same night the Viceroy didnt get any sleep.. he couldnt believe it was Rob that was the pilot of the X, it seems Jim had been haunting him all along.. in the form of his son.

IC: Three days after the destruction of Polaris Prime, Mukuro woke up in the early morning on Polaris Minor and went to the hangar to see how progress was coming on his mech. When he got there, he found the commander he had talked to earlier looking very excited. Commander: Our engineers have finished working on your mech. It's quite a machine, Hitashi. They kept the mass drivers like you said, and they put all of the data from the old Karasu onto the new system, but other than that it's completely new. Mukuro: Excellent! That's all I really wanted to keep anyway. Commander: So, take a look! Mukuro followed the commander into a large construction chamber from the hangar. When he walked in, mechanics were putting the finishing touches on a sleek black mech that reminded him of the angel of death encased in a full carapace. Mukuro: It's...beautiful. Commander: Isn't it? Let me show you the specs. He handed Mukuro the list of specifications for the mech. OOC: For the sake of time, I'll just list the important pieces. 2x Mass Driver 2x Vulcan Gun 2x 10 LRM Battery 2x High-Energy Saber 6x Worm Spine (Long, segmented spines that can fry or simply impale enemy mechs. Three mounted in each hand.) 1x Full Cloaking System 1x Direct Control System 1x Shock Cannon (Much lighter and less energy-consuming than original, slightly less powerful) IC: Mukuro thanked the commander and engineers profusely and entered the cockpit. When he turned on the control system to calibrate it, the screen prompted him asking to name the mech. He typed in Karasu-Akutenshi.

As this happened Auriana jumped and got up, slamming her feet on the floor, squashing Hiroko. 'Don't do this to me, Dave. I don't wan't this to happen, Dave. - Hal! You need to shut do- psshht...' 'Greetings Citizens of the Federation, Its Government, and Fellow separitists. I am Rob Opsulous..' Hiroko: Oh my god! Auriana heard him yell, and pulled him out. Auriana: Poor guy.. I set up that trap knowing you'd spy on me. What's wrong with not wanting your clothes sweaty? Hiroko: I wish you'd think the same about your socks Auriana: ..I traced the message to Copheria - but I fear the IE did too. Hiroko: Rob can handle himself.. I hope. My suit's the size and durability of a 1/144th Gundam model... and that isn't good, and what's left of your suit is in no condition to fight. Let's head back to Earth and get this problem solved. Auriana: Okay - god, you don't have to be sarcastic.. I could always make you stay in that death chamber until we got to Earth.

The Volarians are major speratists and ferice warriors with there own. They own the 2nd largest army in the universe. although owning Mechas is illegal by federation law, there military might is so large the IE wont do anything about it despite it onlly being 1/6 the size of the IE force. Now that they knew who Rob really was, he figured he could gain their support as far as military goes, it was the onlyl chance against that mammoth of a thing the IE created. Shiva: I have been doing some background check Rob. Rob: Oh really? Shiva: The vessel that attack on Polaris Prime is known across the IE as the Raumhaifisch. Rob: really? Raumhaifisch eh? any data on it? Shiva: that is all I got.. its a highly classified project. I happend to pick it up when we were going though the blockade at Polaris Prime from one of the gunship computers. Rob: thank you shiva. *sips coffee*... I gotta stop using all this up.. Polarian coffee has become a rarity now.. Shiva: what do you plan to do on Volarian IV? Rob: To get the only chance we have against the Raumhaifisch... and possilby to give u a few upgrades my dear.

The skyscraper was very high, and the air was extremely thin. Auriana ran into the holding room, and came over the video console. Soon, her armed brother, Tsubasa came out and greeted her. Auriana: Hi - we have urgent problems. Tsubasa: Oh, okay, come in and sit down. Auriana: I guess you're lucky to have decided against succeeding our uncle. Tsubasa: Why? Auriana fliips on his TV, and news coverage had just begun, an entire day after the event. Auriana: I guess it'll be pretty biased.. all you get are IE channels here. The TV came on, showing the blast but not the Raumhaifisch. 'Yesterday, seperatist terrorists attacked Polaris Prime, killing masses of civilians, polaris, IE, and special guild suits all alike. Also, someone going by the name Rob Opsolous broadcasted hoaxed footage, attempting to throw the blame to the IE. The IE has issued a twelve billion credit reward for information leading to the capture of Rob Opsolous, as well as an eight billion credit reward for two people by the names of Hiroko Katsuragi and Auriana Matsuto. There will be continuous coverage of this event around the hour.' Annoyed, Auriana shut off the TV. Auriana: The AD chamber. I broke it when Hiroko was in it. Tsubasa: Then he shouldn't be too hard to hide, should he? Auriana: No... but I'm defenseless with a totalled suit and his is tiny. Do you know of any other AD chambers? Tsubasa: Well, during my short living at Polaris Prime before I declared I wouldn't succeed uncle, I found the AD chamber was actually a modernized version of an ancient Polaris relic. And the only other past civilization of the Polaris was an underground civilization in Volarian II, when we suddenly emerged and suprised people with our advanced technology. Auriana: Yeah, we don't need a history lesson. Tsubasa: We? Hiroko sheepishly climbed out of her pocket. Tsubasa: WELL then, this is a bit more important than I thought. The other problem is Valorian II has a heavy IE influece as they use the planet for guerilla training. I guess I'd better get my gang together and we'll head with you.. Auriana: Thank you very much. Tsubasa pushed off his knees, got up, and poked Hiroko, knocking him over, mocking him. He walked out of the room laughing. The Zephyr refuels and heads straight for Volarian II, and is being followed by Tsubasa's cruiser, the Timberwolf.

He docked at a refinery where he was freeted by a 'freind' 'I got to find me a way to instal a wormhole generator on this thing, finding portals to this neck of the woods is long work, Wouldn't you agree Serrvo ? Serrvo: I take it you want repares, refuling and reloading. Lev: You know me well Servo. Serrvo: I take it you brought my money this time.' Lev knew this was more of a threat than a question. 'Lev: Yeah I got your money, and plenty more. Here's what I want. I want a ship, one that will get me through IE checkpoints and I also want three loads of ammo and fuel, so I won't have to come back here for a while.' Serrvo pondered this and noded in aproval. 'Serrvo : I shall have what you want in 12 hours. Lev: Good I'll get something to eat in the meantime.' With this Lev left Serrvo to do his work.

Once there he stepped on a Hover Rail (the train of the future ). An old lady stared at him for a while, looking at him. Lady: your that young man I saw on TV yesterday arent you? Rob: I get that alot Lady: no.. no you are.. I saw you on TV Man: yeah your Rob Opsulous! Boy: it is it is!! There was a big commotion, everyone tried to talk to rob.. they told him of the news they saw about him.. and how it was a hoax on the IEs part, and they would never believe it. Rob thanked them for there belief in him. On there way they sang the Volarian anthem. Rob was touched by these people that were so independant.. they didnt care that he was wanted for millions of credits. He was a hero here.... The Hover rail stopped and Rob stepped off and walked to the Military base, the Guard stopped him at the door. Guard: sir i cant let... Rob Opsulous! Rob: I need to speak to the Supreme Commander of the Volarian Forces. Guard: yes sir right away, please head in. Rob goes inside and checks in. then heads up the elevator to the top floor. Rob: Commander Fei Fei: Rob Opsulous how may I help you. Rob: I came to ask for support of your fleet against the IE. Fei: anything for the pilot of the X! Rob: hold on.. no so fast.. let me show u what we're up against here. Fei: oh that thing.. nah. Rob: the video i showed on my broadcase was not the whole vessel. Rob sticks a card into the hologram machine and a the Ultracruiser appears on it, taking up the whole machine. Rob: meet Ultracruiser Raumhaificsh.. A hypersheild that can stay up for long periods of time, an ultra anti-matter cannon, Ionic Nuke capablities, and some other cannon that wasnt finished at the time of this analysis. Fei ploped down in his chair at the size of it. Fei: My god that is a big ass ship. Rob: yes it is.. and by the looks of it that thing can carry hundreds of squad units and who knows how many turrents. Its only fair i show u this before I got ur answer.. I expect you to show this to all your men before anyone accepts. Im not asking for your help now.. just in the future. Fei: You have my power when ever you need it no matter what. Im glad to personally meet the pilot of the X... you got guts kid. form battle data you have remarkable skill and can do things i have never seen. The people that dont believe in the IE owe you alot.. we owe you alot for standing up against such brutality.. you have been our forces inspiration. I bet all of them would be glad to help. Rob: thank you. Fei: stay with us for a while, you must have had a long trip from Polaris. Rob: actually Copheria. Fei: aah its still along distance.. besides my men would love to meet you. Rob: ah what the heck. why not. Vyper - 24 Jan 2003 12:44 am Post subject: Hiroko laid against the monitor in the control room, and kind of ended up staring at Auriana. She looked at him and he quickly diverted his eyes. Then, an alarm sounded, indicating objects quickly approaching. He looked to see six blytz cruisers. Hiroko: THE BLYTZ!!! What are we supposed to do!? Much to their suprise, they passed right by them and headed for Volarian IV. DeathscytheX - 24 Jan 2003 01:07 am Post subject: The Blytz Destoryers make it to Volarian IV but were hailed by a Volarian Battle Cruiser to stop. They Destroyers kept going, they were taken out one by one by the Volarian battle cruiser by its dealdy rapid fire particle cannons... One excape pod managed to slip by and down to the planets surface. Com: Commander Fei sir Fei: Yes? Com: This is the Blast Famous Cruiser.. we have taken out 6 what seemed to be 6 Pirate destoryers that were headed towards the planet.. 1 excape pod managed to get by us. Fei: very well good job. Rob: hmmm. Fei: someone must be here to collect the bounty. Rob: yeah.. btw thank you for working the Zanzabar Fei: no problem.. btw where is the X? It was not in the ship. Rob: I left it on the outskirts at the bottom of one of the hot springs.. it needed a wash anyways Fei: aaah I would have loved to see it in person.. Rob: maybe one day.. I left it out there for the reason that just happend. If they found out it was here. they would head here and cause problems with in the city. I dont want innocent people hurt.. i have seen enough die in the last week. I'll head out tomarrow. I gotta visit some starbases for some spare parts you dont have here. cyberlink - 24 Jan 2003 09:30 am Post subject: OOC: sorry i havent posted in a while.... cant realy get on the et that much... IC: The evac ship 201 shook violentley as rei rushed to the command deck, He passed people cowering undertables and door ways trying to avoid the falling debries. Rei entered the commade deck and he was greeted by the sound of sirens and people shouting to each other, Commander: GET THOSE ENGINES OUT!! CUT OFF THE FUEL VALVES! Rei: commander whats going on here? COmmander: we just lost engine number 2, It went up in flames..... Rei: is the situaton undercontrol.. Is there anything i can do? Suddenly the ship stopped shaking and there was an errie silence on board. Enginer: Commander the fuel valves are closed and the fire is out. Commander: good, good, now send out the repair squad. I want a full dammage report. Sorry about that Rei, just happens to be that we were in a rust to get off the plannet and repairs to the ship wern't compleated. It was a risky decision to use this ship but it was try or die situation. Rei: I understand, so shall i go help the repair squad. with my help they could repair it in no time at all. Commander: no its okay, your out guest patting rei on the back and then returning to his quaters the commander muttered something under his breath, 'God damn flamin ship'... Rei: was returning to his quaters when he got a hailing call form the Austoria, *Urgent attendance required, please attend* Rei rushed to his suit and jumped in to the cockpit, MMI told rei that Command central on Zion, requested his presence at an emergency council meeting. Rei contacted zion command and confermed that he eill be attending, he then talked to the commander appoligising for his sudden departure and headed to zion. MMI:*Shall I eniatiate maximum overdrive thrusters?* Rei: yes, please, im not in the mood to contemplate my thoughts in an endless journey to zion. MMI:*confermed* The Austoria engaged thrusters and warp jumped to zion. Rei: Zion DX7, this is Reiouku of the Austoria atthouriation code 648k467. DX7: roger Reiouku, welcome home. Rei: thanks DX7, requesting council post docking. DX7: confermed Reiouku, continut ot waypoint d2. Rei: heading to waypoint d2, out. Rei piloted the austuria to the council docking hall and exited his suit, heading towards the council summit hall he saw armed guards lining every other room. Rei reached the Summit hall and entered. High council #1: Ah just in time Reiouku, please take a seat. Now as i was just about to say we all know what our ace pilot Reiouku has uncovered, the IE are not who they seemed to be, we have been tricked and misleaded. As you can see on the moniters in front of you Reiouku has acessed data on the history of the IE and it shows that they can no longer be alowed to roam free. Council members: Heir hier.... High council #1: we have had information that hte IE forced have mobilised and it looks like their destination is right here. I have no idea how they found us but one thing is for sure, I WILL NOT LET THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO US AS WHAT HAPPENED ON POLARIS PRIME! the council members cheared while rei sat quietley. High Council #1: Reiouku, whats the matter my son you dont seem convinced, Rei: It was me who led them to us... I did it. i did it. High Council #1: my boy, how could you....there is no way they could have tracked you. Rei: no but just before i headed to earth i had a breach of security on the Austoria. I fear the the navigation systems information was hacked into and downloaded, you see they got the location of this planed form me! THe doors of the Summit hall burst open. and 3 guard escorted 1 person into the room. civilian: COMMANDER! I HAVE NEWS! the high council leader took some papers form the civilian and looked at them. his expression grew from determined to terrified. HIgh Council #1: this cannot be, are these numbers correct? Civilian: yes sir. High Council #1: then there is 2 things i must do. one prepare all people for planitary battle, Reiouku follow me, Rei and the commader went onto a seperate room and the commander turned to Rei, High counci 1: Rei, the IE have thrown a massive assult on to us. they are tryng to distroy us.! I have but one thing to do and i need you to witness it, you are the only i trust, Rei: father, what are you doing? High council #1: Rei i have to initiate the planetary distress signal. we have to get some help from someone! Rei: FATHER YOU CANT. WE ARE STRONG FATHER WE CAN BEET THEM! high council #1: im afrade not even you can save us... i must. The commander punched his security code into a pannel on the wall and a screen showing the space sectors emerged. High council #1: im sorry my son. He pressed the distress beacon activation button and a planet on the screen began to flash. that planet was Zion..... DeathscytheX - 24 Jan 2003 04:32 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: So how long do you think it will take for the Raumhaifisch to be completed? Fei: Who knows.. the one thing I do know It wont be in operation again until its 100%. The IE always does one test run on there large cruisers before they complete it.. kind of a test to see what can be made better in the overall system. Rob: true.. Well i gotta go.. thanks for flying the Zanzabar to the location i requested. Fei: no prob.. i dont see why you couldnt have just flown it out there and picked up the X. Rob: well I wanted to get it out of your way ASAP since it was taking up space in your hanger.. A advisor turns busts in the door. Man: Sir turn on the TV! The TV turns on to the news. Reporter: I has been reported to be one of the biggest outbreaks ever recorded... earilier today the colonies around Polaris Minor were quarentined.. it is reported that every colonist is dead. A serious Viral outbreak occured 3 days after the evacuation from Polaris Prime and had spread throughout the colonies. Scientists report similarists between the corpses and files describing the black plague of ancient europe on earth in the sol system. We will bring you more news on this later. Rob: the black plague.... Rob was sick to his stomach at the news.. his favority study was Mother Earth History. He had nightmares as a little kid from the stories of the black death in ancient europe. Rob: I gotta go thanks guys... Fei: but.. Rob runs out the room and grabs the trench coat on the way down. He walked out into the street and got on the hover rail. he couldnt stop thinking about the polarians.. how did they get this disease, it made no since.. the virus had been wiped out centuries ago. Rob got off the hover rail at a desolate place in the city and walked the street to get out of the city limits to the zanzabar. Man: Hey you.. you... HEY! im talking to you Rob: what do you want.. Man: Im hear to finish the business that we conducted in Neo Tokyo Rob: what? At that time the man dashed at rob and he saw the patch symbol of the Blytz on his shirt. Rob dodged the assult and tripped the guy. Rob: Its not like the blytz to work solo. Man: grrrr. shut up He takes a swing at rob but it is also dodged and Rob breaks his nose with a right hook. the Man gets fustrated with rob and the band on his head begins to glow.. at this time a NV-MAD8EX busts out of a abandon warehouse. and the man gets in to it. Rob: telekenetic controls... Man: HAHAHAHAAA!! well well Rob Opsulous.. not so tough without your mechanical beast are you? surrender to me and you will live. Rob: in the hands of the IE who will kill me? Man: well... you can die now or die later. Rob looks down and chuckles softly, his comlink watch glows red. Rob: fool... do u think I dont have my Suit?... *throws trenchcoat off into the air*.. RISE X!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *snaps finger* The X brusts out of the spring and gets to rob within seconds, the man fires some vucan cannonat him but he rolls into an alley and gets into the X. The X charged through a building and rammed into the Blytz suit. The man pulled out his beam saber and Rob pulled out the Ultra beam saber which he rarely ever did. the blyzt suit swung but was blocked and then nailed by chaingun rounds in its left leg and arm. the blytz suit was rendered stationary, it swung again but the X caught it by the wrist and crushed its forearm and the Beam saber shorts out. Rob jams his beam saber into the chest of the suit and it ends up inches above the mans head he cowars a the sight. Rob: Recite IE Regulation Code Rule 450E Man:.... I dont know IE Code!!! Rob: too bad.. The X pulls the saber down the body and out the bottom of the right leg, vaporizing the man in the process. Rob: Fei.. that pirate has been taken care of. Rob arrives a the newly revamped Zanzabar and heads off to Starbase 4CCA. Rob: How do you like your new stuff Shiva? Shiva: it will take some getting use to.. but the Zanzabar should be more defensively sound. Rob: i was looking for.. cool.. or awesome.. or something.. OOC: sorry I just couldn't help myself (reffering to the g gundam cameo) Zanzabar 2x High powered energy turrets 1x Beam cannon (mounted on top) 1x Cloaking Device 1x Communitcation Jammer 2x rapid fire Rail Guns (mounted under the ship) 1x Energy Sheild (can take alot of punishment from normal energy weaponry, ultra weaponry such as battle cruiser cannons and stuff, very little punishment) Azrael - 24 Jan 2003 05:06 pm Post subject: OOC: Trying to kill me off? IC: Walking out into the colony streets for the first time after the plague, Mukuro was overwhelmed by the silence and the stench of death. He was looking for other survivors, but the only people he could find were a woman with white-streaked black hair and a little Chinese boy with a knife. They kind of freaked him out, so he kept walking. OOC: Much like DX, I couldn't resist the cameo. IC: He had eaten some food he found in a restaurant earlier. It wasn't sitting well with him, and neither was the smell around him. He threw up, cursed under his breath, and kept walking. He got to the hangar and walked over to Karasu-A. When he got there, he saw the commander who had ordered its construction, and felt obligated to bury him. Once he finished that, he left the colony in his new mech. On his way home to Teimas, he couldn't help wondering why he had been spared while everyone else died. The answer was obvious, of course. The plague had been designed to kill Polarians and Humans. He wasn't Polarian, and apparently his kind weren't human enough to succumb to the disease. He reached his homeworld and landed at an obscure outpost in the deep desert. When he got there, he ordered everyone to evacuate, spent thirty minutes in a disinfecting chamber, and then activated the station's self-destruct. After seeing that it was destroyed, he walked to the wreckage, got in the minimally-damaged Karasu-A, and headed for Ground Station 1. Vyper - 24 Jan 2003 10:57 pm Post subject: The Zephyr and Timberwolf both landed on the surface. The Zephyr instantly picked up lots of camouflaged signals. Auriana: Mercs.. we'd better stay away from them. Hiroko: What's taking Tsubasa so long? Auriana: I don't know.. Tsubasa bursts into the room, almost in tears. He attempts to say something, but fails. Tsubasa: Th-th-ka-ka~! They-th-theyre-k-ka-de-dead!! Auriana: Who!!!!?? Tsubasa: C-k-caw-lonists... Tsubasa exhaled deeply, and collapsed on the floor, and began sobbing. Tsubasa: All of the refugees are.. dead! Auriana: WHAT? Tsubasa reluctantly flips on the tv, and the news program loops. News Anchor: In case you're just tuning in, all of the Polarians on the colonies outside of Polaris Minor have suddenly died from a disease reminiscent of the black plague, from Mother Earth. And now back to commercials. Auriana attempts to hold back tears, but her emotions explode and she collapses on the floor with Tsubasa. Tsubasa quietly says, Tsubasa: My crew members will help you; they know the way, and am battle-hardened and therefore aren't suffering. Three mechs arrive outside the opened hangar door, and on lowers its hand in Hiroko's general direction, and he gets on. The hand raises to the cockpit, and it opens. Hiroko hops in, and gets in a tight place near the emergency equipment. Korbin: Hello, I'm Korbin. We'll reach the ruins in five min- Korbin is interrupted as he is hit by a beam rifle. Mercenary: Surrender all of your equipment now. You don't need to be alive for us to get sheet metal out of you. Korbin: Camoflauge gear, eh? :: sigh :: Zephyr, release a Recall EMP. A large shockwave surges over a half mile, and the camouflage equipment requiring much energy shorts out and the suit bursts into flames. Korbin: Hurry! Don't stay to fight just get to the ruins! The suits do an econo-overboost, and arrive at the ruins shortly after receiving glancing hits by other mercenaries. They come to a cave that is very claustrophobic, and there was no chance a mech could get through. They get out, and crawl on their stomachs for ten minutes. Hiroko arrives at water, and tells the Korbin and his friends he reached water. Korbin: Inhale some and tell us if you choke. Hiroko inhales some, and hacks it up. Korbin: nope.. not LCL yet.. lemme feel around for something. Hiroko scoots aside as Korbin reached ahead and feels for something, and finds a lever. He pulls it, and the water begins rising fast. Hiroko: AHH!! YOU SET OFF A TRAP!! The water causes them to float to the top, and Hiroko's lungs begin burning. Korbin reaches for it, but because he was stuck to the top, he couldn't reach it, and the space was too tight to reach down. Hiroko swam down for what seemed 30 feet (although it was only one) and found the lever, and pushed it down with all his might. It went to its original position, and then some, and the water recessed. They continued, and Hiroko started seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Hiroko: I see light! Korbin: What?? But the ruins are underground! They continue, and the light turns out to be a beacon, with strange encrytions on it. Hiroko wonders what it is, and Korbin and company are clueless. Hiroko decides to try something, and attempts to tap into it like he would with his suit. It becomes brighter, and the top of the cave melts away. On top in front of Hiroko is a small gate, that had been moving when Korbin pulled the lever. Hiroko thought, 'Light' directed at the small console-gem, and the entire room became much brighter. The ruins were breathaking; it wasn't ruins at all, an empty, perfectly preserved ancinet artifact. It looked almost exactly like Polaris Prime in layout, being that, there was a large tower at the center, and dated houses stood everywhere. However, Korbin and his friends were attacked by shrivveled up humanoid skeletons. They poured out of the homes and buildings. Hiroko: What happened here!!!?? Korbin: A group known as the ILE blasted this with a carbon gas that preserved the place for centuries. They created an artificial ceiling to close it up. However, the Polarians had already spread out in the galaxy. Polaris Prime was actually the homeworld of the Polarian descent, but this was established as an expansion. Polaris Prime was turned into a city of ruins, and after the carbon gas was dumped, they activated a spherical tower known as Polaris Central that returned everything to its mo-... .... we could make a new Polaris homeworld. Hurry, Hiroko, race up the tower! We'll be fine! Activate it and jump in before you activate!! Hiroko made for the tower, and ran just as one was about to step on him unintentionally. DeathscytheX - 24 Jan 2003 11:53 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Starbase 4CCA, this is the Zanzabar requesting permission to dock. 4CCA: :static: Rob: Starbase 4CCA, This is the Zanzabar, can you read me? 4CCA: :static: Rob: Shiva.. what can u scanners pickup? Shiva: the Base is not deserted I sense large masses of life.. all very faint. but they are there. Rob: Open a docking bay for us.. see if you can bypass the system. Shiva: I suggest extreme caution. Rob: no kidding.. Shiva opens one of the bays and the Zanazbar docks.. rob gets out.. no one is in the controll tower monitoring docking. He walks in to the base and almost gets knocked out by a foul stench.. he almost puked from the smell. he walked around the base with no sign of anyone. he heard steps and turned around and was struck with horror. What seemed to be a man walked aimlessly around and an extremely slow pace.. he looked like something out of a horror movie.. parts of his body had rotten flesh, the parts that were not rotted where swollen and covered with black welts, his eyes had a greenish tent and mucus constantly ran out of his nose.. he fell down on his face with a low moan and rolled on his back.. Rob slowly walked up keeping his distance. Rob: What happend to you.. Man:.....I... don.... oooh... everybud... get... sick.. at.. sim.. time... The man takes his last breath. Rob walks ot the main lobby to see about 80 people laying around in the same condition.. most dead... he walked out terrified at the sight.. he turned around and about 8 people walked towards him in the condition with their arms out trying to reach for Rob begging for help. Rob: What the hell is going on!! I gotta get the hell out of here! Rob turns around and runs back to the base.. what ever they had.. he wasnt about to get it. he jumped back into the zanzabar and blew open the bay door with the high engergy turrets and rail guns compromising air pressure, he jetted out in no general direction breathing heavily. Rob: shiva.. scan that whole base for EVERY little thing.. even down to the germs. I want to know whats on that starbase. Rob runs to the toliet and vomits... he jumps in the shower and washes for hours, after dumping his clothes out the garbage hatch into space. he wasnt gonna touch his freash pair of clothes or anything else until he was cleaner than he has ever been before. cyberlink - 27 Jan 2003 10:17 am Post subject: IC: The commander activated the planitary distress signal and sommond another council meeting. Rei runs to the Austoria and enters the hanger to find a few modifications,. Rei: wha...... Engineer: Sir, we have carried out the modifications you requested, Rei: i didnt request any, but god you have done a brillient job. The Austoria now stood in the gleeming light. new modifications and upgrades everywhere, Rei couldent believe his eyes, Rei: what are the modifications and upgrades. engineer: here have a look at the list/ AUSTORIA X II Weight: 14 T Twin Beam Rifle II: 3 T Height: 180 ft Decal: Project Orion, Left shoulder and Rear head Abilities: Excellent in Space and in flight combat, improved ground manouverability moderate in aqua. Melee and projectile combat style are its strengths Weaponry: 2X Ultra sonic Beam Sabre 1X Twin Beam Rifle II 2x Vulcan Cannon 8X Long Range seismic Missiles (LSM) 4X Image Disrupter 1X Automated Camouflage System (ACS) 1X Automated Target Radar (ATR) 1X selfdefence system (SDF) 1X Automatic mission System (AMS) Rei: I see quite a change then. Engineer: yes. i suggest you take it out to the test range before you engage in battle. Rei: No, I believe that those who need practice at this time are too late. its now or never. Rei climes into the Austoria X II and engage systems.

For now I'll take a leave of absence from this RPG since you guys seem to be doing fine without me and for the fact that my ISP is being an ass) Gundam-Ranger-X - 29 Jan 2003 10:12 pm Post subject: OCC : I drew my mech http://www.geocities.com/sstgdm_ranger_x/Revolution_Massacre.html note the pics look better if you 'view' the pictures. IC : Lev returned a few hours later. He found out that his ship was ready and that all the suplies he had requested had been loaded. He paid Serrvo. 'This might be my last time here. I know you won't be too dissapointed about loosing my buisness.' Serrvo almost smiled at this but Vegans never smile, ever.After leaving Vega, Lev became rather depressed. 'Beeing in battle was better than I remembered it. Ireally should try and find that guy and ask if I can join with him. I really do miss combat.' With this he slept, his ship heading randomly into space. Azrael - 30 Jan 2003 12:56 am Post subject: OOC: 'Vegans never smile.' IC: After what he had seen in the Polaris system Mukuro never wanted to go back...but of course he had to. The public was in desperate need of counter-propaganda (something that his com stations could easily broadcast), and there would undoubtedly already be forensic crews at the colonies. Aside from that, he had recieved word that Zanzabar was in the area. After a few repairs on Akutenshi, he set out to the Polaris system with a small communications ship and its support mechs. Once he got in the area, he used the ship's transmitter to hail Zanzabar and waited for a reply. DeathscytheX - 30 Jan 2003 02:19 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: shiva, anything on the report yet? Shiva: the analysis is taking longer than expected. Rob: ah Shiva: Rob, Mobile Suit closing fast to our location Rob: Model? Shiva: NV-MAD7 Rob: Hotaru-2?! Hiroko?! Rob hailed the suit but there was no answer, Rob hailed again but there was no answer.. the NV-MAD7 passed over the Zanzbar without a pause. Rob jumped in the X and persued him, the NV-MAD7 then stopped and turned, then fired its Particle cannon at the X. Rob quickly dodged. Rob: Hiroko?! what the hell is wrong with you?! Hatsuma: How dare you call me that name, That low class amature shouldnt be mentioned in my presence. Rob: you! Hatsuma: Indeed. Rob: where is Hiroko? Hatsuma: Dead for all I know, last time I saw him we were the size of action figures, I happend to get back to my original form, I doubt he knew how to do so, for all I care he probably got stepped on. The NV-MAD7R charged at the X but Rob evaded the assult and fired vulcan cannon round which was quickly dodged by Hatsuma who then swung his beam saber which was yet again avoided then Rob swiped at the Hatsuma with a plasma rod but Hatsuma blocked it with his beam saber, in a lightning fast exchange. Hatsuma: Impressive Piloting Rob: no so bad yourself Rob Fired Vulcan cannons again but Hatsuma boosted out of the way and assulted the X with the NV-MAD7R's funnels, they were all quickly destoryed by the X's chaingun while dodging every attack. Hatsuma was amazed at Rob's skill, but not suprised because of all the havoc he had caused to the IE. Hatsuma: your skill is remarkable Rob Opsulous, but your time is up, I will be the one that will put an end to your infamous reputation. I shall be a legend. Rob: oh really? *smerk* The NV-MAD7R transforms as it did on Polaris Prime, it fired micromissles but the jamers on the X made them lose there tracking systems, before Rob knew it Hatsuma was behind him and pounded him with more mircomissiles. Rob: damn hes fast. Rob fired the chaingun again but it was avoided before the 1st round came off and NV-MAD7R was above him pouring down vulcan cannon shots. Rob boosted off, Hatsuma charged up the particle cannon to max power. Hatsuma: goodbye Mr. Opsulous The cannon fired but when the beam cleared the X still remained surrounded by its hypersheild. The assult was so long that the Hypersheild had to be up too long causing the X to lose some systems. Rob: crap... I have to choice... computer.. activate Dark Fury systems Computer: DF mode active The X's cockpit consoles illumiated neon blue as did the creases in the amor on the outside.. the plasma rods also illuminated blue. Hatsuma: what is that? Hatsuma few behind Rob again but before he could set SL missles dug into the NV-MAD7R's wings and blew them off. Rob flew under Hatsuma and pounded the NV-MAD7R's underside with chaingun rounds, Hatsuma evaded after taking some damage and fired mircomissiles, at this same moment Rob fired swarmers the missles collided but a few managed to get through hitting both Suits. Rob pulled out the UPC and fired, Hatsuma fired his Particle cannon and the beams hit each other dead on causing a massive explosion. the force inflicted criticle damage on both suits. The NV-MAD7R charged at the X but Rob fliped overhead and jammed a plasma rod into the NV-MAD7R's back cutting into the power core causing it to return to its normal state. Hatsuma: damn you! I will get you, you just watch I will defeat you... we will meet again! Hatsuma bursted off on what little power his suit had left, Rob tried to charge up the UPC but it shorted out the X's power and he couldnt finish him off. Rob: you were lucky this time.... Computer bring us back to the zanzabar and dock for repairs. The X docked back at the Zanzabar, Rob quickly started on repairs, there was alot to do. Shiva: Rob I am recieving an hailing call. Rob: Im kinda busy... i have quite a few repairs to finish on the X... you have to finish that analysis for me... where is it from? Shiva: the Polaris System. Rob: Polaris? who would be there?.. there isnt anything left there.. can you patch me up in here? Shiva: It has been done Rob: Who is this? Mukuro: Its Mukuro. Rob: Mukuro? geez, good to see you made it off Prime in one peice... what are u still doing out there? Vyper - 30 Jan 2003 11:55 pm Post subject: The beam shot straight in the air. The globe, still intact, glowed fiercely. The stone ceiling crumbled, crushing some of the zombies. Then, grass began growing on the ground below him. Structures everywhere dissapeared, only to be covered with grass. The entire proccess lasted for fifteen minutes, until the entire planet was covered with lush greens. Then, a beam shot out from the orb and cut trenches all over the planet, and pure water ran through it. The proccesses showed signs of finishing, and Hiroko gasped, 'This is my chance!!' He climbed clumsily over the patterns in the pedestal, and got to the summit, where he hurled himself into the orb. He was instantly transformed. Hiroko: What about my mech... Auriana came over quickly in the Zephyr, and dropped the suit into the orb, where it too was restored. Auriana wiped happy tears from here eyes, 'We have a home!' -------------- Later, Auriana did a closed broadcast to all known Polarians asking they help rebuild a community and to not let the IE know of any of it. Azrael - 31 Jan 2003 11:58 pm Post subject: Mukuro: We're trying to get a propaganda tape put together. Your speech was nice, but there are still some people buying the terrorist bullshit. The more sources we put out, the harder it will be for the IE to explain away. I also saw that you were in the area recently, so you must know about the colonies. Rob: Yes. I saw. Mukuro: You might have noticed, the virus affected humans as well as Polarians. Do you feel...sick? DeathscytheX - 01 Feb 2003 12:32 am Post subject: IC: Rob: No. I made sure to sterilize myself after I came near it. Im getting the AI on the Zanzabar to give me a report on it.. I should have more info within the hour. I will keep in contact with you and let you know what I can find out. Anyways the Raumhalficsh is the name of that mammoth vessel that attack us on Prime.. it has Ionic Nukes as you saw.. a huge ass anti-matter cannon, and some other weapon called the Gravatron Cannon, whatever the hell that is. It should be nearing completion in the next week. We must keep an eye on this thing... who knows what the IE is planing with it. I have alot of repairs to do here on the X so Im out. *ends transmission* Shiva: Rob Analysis complete. Rob: give me the lo' down sista' Shiva: I do not understand... Rob: Just tell me what you found... geez Shiva: There was a foreign virus on the starbase. its origins are unknown.. its highest concentraitions were in the main ventilation shafts. Rob: Obviously planted Shiva: indeed. The viral infection seems to have a 3 day cycle.. its make up suggests is it highly contagious, but on its end cycle, which is the 3rd day.. that is no longer the case. Rob: So that must have been the 3rd day i saw. Shiva: yes... Death Rob: anything else? Shiva: Im sorry thats all I could do without a real sample. Rob: ok thanks. Rob Continues the Repairs on the X throughout the rest of the day. Vyper - 01 Feb 2003 01:33 pm Post subject: After a day of awe, they took off to the Ethereal, a huge Polaris ship that has the only purpose of having a civilization. It is constantly trudging to other systems for trade. It is the largest concentration of living Polarians to this date. The ship is called the Ethereal because it travels ether streams alone, and that civilization separated from the Polaris so long ago that they no longer even consider themselves Polarians; they are the Etherans. [Ee-thur-ans] After leaving the system, they inadvertenly passed under the Raumhaifisch. Auriana: Ahh!!! Hiroko: It-It's 90% finished. cyberlink - 03 Feb 2003 08:45 am Post subject: Back on the planet Zion Rei prepares for battle and hopes for the best. His new updated suit, The Austoria X II was impressive and it seemed that no otehr suit could oppose it. but there was a snagg in this battle, There were too many IE suits for the Austoria to handle alone, even though the planetary defence system was engage it wouldent make much diffrence to to on-coming onslaught. The speakers in the ground station and the Mech suit docks boomed with instructions. ' ALL PILOTS PREPARE FOR DEPARTURE IN T-500 SECONDS, ALL PLANETARY DEFENCE SYSTEM CHECKS COMPLEATE, I REPEAT ALL MECH PILOTS PREPARE FOR DEPARTURE'. As Rei looked down form the austoria he could see a hive of activity, other mechs were being loaded up with ammunition and their reactors were being replaced. He could see the pilots leaving the briefing room and running to their mechs where they began to do systems checks and mechanical interface functions. MMI:* all system checks compleate, ready for departure* Rei: good. I shall wate for all the pilots to be redy then i shall depart. The hive of activity gradually died down as all the ground and enginer crew left the hangars. There was an errie silence as the pilots made there systems checks within their mech suits. Rei: MMi put me through to all mech channels. MMI:*all channels open* Rei: This is Reiouku of the Austoria X II, as you are aware and have been briefed on we are under attack by the IE forces, This attack is not a light one and is probarbly the one that will take many lives. Some of you may not return today but your memories and brave heroics will live on. Be not afraid of them, we can out smart them, WE SHALL BEAT THEM!! NOW LETS GET EM!!!!!!! A roar of applause rose form the crowds. Mech suits begam moving into position for departure and sirens sounded as they prepared for battle. Rei looked to the side and could see the hundreds of families watching them through the view ports on either side. They were the famlies of the pilots and the people who entrusted their lives to them. Rei couldent help but feel that he was some how connected to these people. he could suddenly feel all there emotions all at once, Fear, anger, hate. He began to feel himself loose control of his cool. He shook himself and announced the departure by firing a flare into the sky. Suddenly the austoria took off into the night and was closley followed by thousands of modified NV-MAD6 suits all in formation. The battle for Zion had begun. had anyone heard the call for help no one knew but onething was for sure, the planet would fall to the IE if no help arrived soon.

Auriana: Hiroko, there is something I must tell you. Hiroko: Yes? Auriana: I will have to leave you; as I am the only Polarian left of rank I will become the President of Neo Polaris. Hiroko: Oh, I see.. Auriana (begins to have tears in her eyes): an-and I love you. :: bursts into tears :: So please!! Whatever-whatever you do.. don't die! :: collapses onto Hiroko :: Hiroko holds her, and keeps her from falling. DeathscytheX - 04 Feb 2003 12:14 am Post subject: OOC: There are no NV-MAD6's except Mine.. I stole the blueprints as told earily in the RPG, the project was canned by creast . (actually there are 2 but that will be revealed later) IC: The Zanzabar landed on the europa, one of the inhabited moons of Jupiter. Rob picked up some parts for the X to complete the repairs. Rob then headed towards Independant Research Station 8X-A. Shiva: Rob there seems to be a large amount of IE activity around Zion. Rob: Zion? why would they be there?... oh no.... Shiva.. forget the report, we can look into that later.. head for zion, fastest possible speed. Shiva: it would be faster to go through jump point Stratus IX. Rob: I dont have time to think about how to get into a jump point with IE on me.. just go the long way. Shiva: Maximum thrust intiated. Rob: I hope im wrong.. i so hope im wrong.. if im not... there is nothing that can be done.. Azrael - 04 Feb 2003 12:36 am Post subject: OOC: I'm gonna be iron...like a lion...in Zion! IC: While he was supervising the data collection teams in the Polaris system, Mukuro got a call regarding a massing of IE forces around the Zion Free State. He cursed under his breath, called for any available troops in the area, and opened the now-abandoned IE jump gate. Gundam-Ranger-X - 04 Feb 2003 05:17 am Post subject: Lev had slept for hours. His ship drifting ever so silently. Caball came on-line and took control of the ship. A message had been received and he procded to wake Lev up. 'There is a message for you.' After a few moments of stiring lev opened hie eyes, still half asleep. 'Give me the short version will ya. Caball : As you wish : It seems there are some forces seeking aid to repel a massive IE invasion on Zion, needless to say it would be an interesting battle. Shall I plot a course for Zion. Lev : Shure why not, might be just the thing I need.' Lev got up and headed for the mess, he was in desprate need of coffey and food. Outside, the ships engines lit up as it soared for Zion. cyberlink - 04 Feb 2003 08:55 am Post subject: rei and his fellow pilots head into battle, leaving their beloved families and friends behind them, not knowing if they would ever return. The massive counter-attack force broke orbit and headed towards PTV II the 5th planet away from zion. All the time the IE forced advanced. Why they had not deployed their troops yet no one knew, Had they seen that they had launched a counter-attack? did they have the upperhand now because they can jump on them unprepared, Rei seemed to think not. He had another suspicion. something didnt seem right. Rei: This is Austoria, Comence attack formation Delta. Forces 5-8 take course d10 around the planetary defence to the right and forces 8-12 take course d11 to the left. All other forces follow me. Forces 5-12 took their commanded routes in preparation for a flank manouver. all other forces, 1-4 and 13-40 headed straight for the IE. Rei: Check Engagement targets, Force leader 2: Roger, Engagement Targets confermed. Rei: MMI Scan long range and identify Threat, MMI:*scanning.............. Targets found, 0.4 degrees right, 50 assult tankers, 400 Mech transport cruisers and 20 berrage ships confermed. Estimated IE mechs 8000+. Rei: All forces, did you catch that, it looks like this is a full scale invasion. *WARNING, WARNING* proxsimity sirens sounded inside the austoria as they drew closer. Rei: Force leader 2, I will go on ahead and distract them, you need to take out their berrage ships. Force leader 2: NO YOU CANT!! THATS SEWICIDE! Rei: I have no choice Kinomi, I have to, Its for the grater good. MMI, engage Cammo systems The Austoria vanished and speed towards the IE forces. In Rei's mind he knew that he may not make it out of this alive, but he had no choice..... Rei reached the perimiter of the IE forced and they still had no idea that he was there, He engaged his Twin Rifle overdrive and fired at 2 Cruisers, The battle has begun. DeathscytheX - 04 Feb 2003 05:46 pm Post subject: IC: The Zanzabar Had arrived a few miles outside the battle parameter Rob: Shiva.. is it here? Shiva: No, scanners dont pic it up, but there are 2 battle curisers Thunderforge and Aries. Zion forces have 3 starcurisers 30 destoyers, 5000 units, and 24 assult ships. They are highly outnumbered. Rob: Good. Shiva: I do not understand Rob: they have outnumber forces.. thats why it is not here. Rob gets in the X and launches. Rob: shiva. clock and hang around out here for a while, keep scanning the area. you know what to do. Shiva: will do. Rob: Time is precious.... The X heads towards the battle field, he sees the scene of battle... but he did not understand why the IE wanted Zion.. it wasnt rich with resorces as Polaris Prime was.. it did however have a bit of political influance, and a decent military force. cyberlink - 05 Feb 2003 05:28 am Post subject: The Austoria still cloacked was causing havok among the IE forces, They had still not deployed their Mobile suits... And rei was beggining to get a horrible feeling deep down inside, Shots from the Berrage ships were streeking out into space, distroying some Zion forces on the way, Rei: force leader 2, do you copy? Force leader 2: roger Rei, Rei: I have a bad feeling about this, be on your guard, Suddenly a shot from one of the assult tankers sits Rei in the back, The suit de-cloaks and is now in full view, Rei: damn, MMI how long till ACS it back online? MMI: ACS systems at 30% critical mass, Un-operational. Rei: So that was a lucky shot. Force leader 2, comence attack pattern delta, Forces 5-12 comence with attack, Forces 5-12: roger, commencing attack run. With Rei dead centre of the IE fleet he was all alone, suddenly the mech transport cruisers activated and the full force of the IE fleet was deployed, 1000's of mobile suits poured out into the battle feild. Rei: So, they are aware of our presence, this could be tough. But why did it take so long for them to deploy their suits? The Austoria moved about the feild at lightling speeds, distroying every IE suit it opposed. shots were firing in all directions, both Zion forces and IE alike. Rei: force leader 2, designate your situation. Force leader 2: situation critical, I have multiple targets all IE forces, headed towards Zion. We have to do something, i will ......... Rei: Force leader 2, repeat, your last transmission was cut short, Force leader 2: ....... Rei: I repeat Force leader 2 respond, A shot from one of the Berrage ships had streeked into the zion forces distroying multiple Zion suits, unfortunatley Force leader 2 was ditroyed in te explosion. Rei: DAMN YOU!!!!! force 2 mech 3, i designate you force leader, Suit 206 Alpha distroyed. Suit 3: WHAT! okay Rei ill do my best. With the battle intensified it seemed like they had no chance, they were greatley out numbered. The Austoria was distroying IE suits left and right. The flank forces were encountering heave resistance while the main attack force had enough trouble stopping the Fleet form making progress towards Zion. MMI:* Rei, may i suggest something?* Rei: go ahead MMI, MMI:* changes to my systems indicate that Overdrive systems have been modified, all systems are not intergrated into overdrive enableing the suit to reach much higher levels of manouverability.* Rei: go on.... MMI:* if you engage Overdrive systems you might be able to swing this battle* Rei: commander, why wasnt i informed about this? Commander: I did not think that you were ready, We call this new system the Golden Sun system, In test runs it has been proven to allow the suit to increase manouverability and dexterity dramiticly. Rei: Well in future I want to know about ALL changes to my suit, OUT! MMI:*shall I engage Golden Sun Systems? Suddenly the Austoria was surrounded by Multiple IE suits, they grabed the Austoria and rendered it unable to move, The Austoria shook violentley in a struggle to break free. Rei: ENGAGE GOLDEN SUN! The austoria began to glow in a brilliant golden light, as rei looked at his control pannel he could see that the stats of the Austoria was rising dramaticly., The IE suits were forced off the Austoria by the sheer energy comeing form the newley transformes suit. It seems that Rei could stand a chance,.... DeathscytheX - 05 Feb 2003 04:25 pm Post subject: IC: Suddenly a brilliant flash of light temporarily blinded everyone in the battle zone. about 50 IE suits exploded in a huge line. The X had fired its Ultra Plasma Cannon at one of the IE squads in formation. Rob heard many cheers from Zion pilots. They knew the X was here to help out. Rob: Zion Forces, The IE has its 3rd and 4th most powerful battle curisers here, avoid the battle curisers at all costs, attack the transport ships, that should be our main focus. It will take more suits down at once, as you may know we are highly outnumbered and this is our only chance. Zion Command Ship: Mr. Opsulous what do you suggest the assault ships do? Rob: The assault ships should have the same goal, get the destoryers and the starcurisers to attack Thunderforge and Aries The X unleashed swarmes taking out 8 IE Aces (can tell by the decal on its suit) Rob: Long range units, see what you can do about the Ace pilots, melee and mid-range units take out the basic IE suits. Leave the Aces and Elite sqauds to Me and the Austoria... Rei did you get that? Rei: Roger that. Rob: lets make this quick and clean.. well maybe not clean but certianly fast. The X pulls out its plasma rods and begins to take offensive attacks at the elite squadrons. The IE suits tended to avoid the X, but most of them were overwhelmed by its G-force chrushing speeds. Azrael - 05 Feb 2003 05:48 pm Post subject: Twenty minutes after the start of the battle, Mukuro arrived in Akutenshi with a small elite force and joined the battle. He announced their presence and allegiance to the Zion forces, and then dove into the melee. He caught sight of Rei in the middle of the battle and hailed him. Mukuro: You again! Well, it's good to see that you're still alive after everything. Vyper - 05 Feb 2003 07:07 pm Post subject: Hiroko began heading towards the Ethereal in the Timberwolf. Only about thirty minutes into the flight, they encountered something of significance. Hiroko: It-its.. Tsubasa: Its what appeared on Polaris Prime.. Hiroko: Hmm.. it appears that it's going in Zions' general direction. Tsubasa: What could be going on there? Hiroko: I don't know. Let's not get involved. Tsubasa: Looks a little different.. Hiroko: Maybe they finished it.. -------------------------- Meanwhile, the Thunderforge and Ariess' ports opened. All IE suits got an encrypted message, and they began breaking for the two battlecruisers as fast as possible. Gundam-Ranger-X - 05 Feb 2003 09:41 pm Post subject: Lev's ship came within range of the battle a few minutes after the Zanzabar did. He had already borded his mech and had even dug up his old uniform from the atempted revolution. 'Let's do this then. Caball stay with the ship and fall back if the battle gets too close.' With this Revolution Massacre took off like a bat out of hell, exiting the ship's docking bay at full speed. Within meer moments he had arived, he saw the X. An IE Ace was at it's 6 and was preparing to fire. With quick reflexes the Beam sniper riffle let out a shot and blasted it. He now turned his comm to the combat frequency. 'Is this a private party or can any slob join in.' Azrael - 05 Feb 2003 09:54 pm Post subject: As the tides of the battle seemed to be changing, all of the IE suits suddenly ran for their nearest cruiser. It stood to reason that they would be retreating, but they weren't just retreating. They were flying away at full speed, as if the angel of death himself were chasing them. As if their lives depended on reaching the cruisers. As one of the suits passed him, he extended the spines from Akutenshi's hand and skewered the terrified enemy with two of them, keeping the third inches from the pilot. Mukuro: Now why exactly are you all running? Pilot: I...it...the c... Mukuro withdrew the third spine slightly. Mukuro: Calm down and tell me. If you answer my question, you will be spared. It was no use. The pilot was completely hysterical by this time, and now Mukuro could see why. In the distance, barely visible, a ship larger than any other in the IE fleet appeared. DeathscytheX - 06 Feb 2003 12:06 am Post subject: IC: Rob: good to see you Lev, thanks. Shiva: Rob... its here. Rob sees the Raumhaifisch. Rob: Dammit! Its here. All Units RETREAT NOW!!! No one listen to Rob, they continued fighting, The Zion Curisers focused there attacks on the Ultracuriser, along with half of its destoryers and all of its assault ships. Rob: YOU IDIOTS!! YOU ARE NOT MATCH FOR THAT BEAST!!! Nothing was happening. the Full Hypershield could not be peiced, Rob saw the 3rd weapon that was not completed on Prime begen to glow a raidant blue. Mukuro backed off immediatly along with Lev, they knew the power of the monstrousity. Rob: Lev, Mukuro.. there is nothing more we can do here. The Cannon fired and a blue ball of light shot in the middle of the Zion fleet, suddenly a huge transluscent white orb formed around the ships, the starcrusiers were crushed flat and the destoryers exploded within seconds along with the assault ships. Rob: the gravatron cannon... what a insanely wicked weapon.. I have never seen anything like that before.... wait! *smacks forhead* Im such an Idiot!!! The Turrets on the Raumhaifisch rained down on the Zion suits. as it releases more suits all NV-MAD12RZs (Codename: Dragoon Suit) Rob: Lev, Rei, Mukuro, I have a plan... lets hope it attacks again... Lev/Rei/Mukuro: WTH?! Rob: Its the only way we can get pass its hypershield.. dont forget I have one too, just not as good. you cant fire without letting it down. As soon as it fires again, I need Lev to fire his most powerful weapon at the Gravitron cannon, I want Rei and Mukuro to fire at the Anti-Matter cannon.. its the biggest so we need double firepower.. and I will take care of that last one. The Raumhaifisch's Ionic Nuke launcher activated. Rob: NOW!!! Lev powered up and nailed the Gravitron cannon perfectly up the barrel with incredible accuracy, the barrel split in half. Mukuro and Rei hit both sides of the gravity cannon putting to criticle holes in its shaft.. if it tried to fire it could make the whole ship unstable, destorying even it despite its massive size and armor. Rob saw nukes being deployed as this happend, he fired the UPC in overkill he hit 3 nukes on there way out causing a massive explosion blinding everyone, after it cleared a huge hole in the haul of the Raumhaifich was created. nukes still got through Rob's assault, but there were too many. Many Zion suits sacrificed themselfs to stop the nukes just taking out more of its own suits in the explosion. What was left of the destoryers fired at the Raumhaifisch but to no avail its hypersheild was active again and it was in retreat. some of the Ionic nukes crashed down on the Zion surface on a few major cities. Despite the unbelievable devastation the battle was far from over, there was still many suits that were dropped off by the Raumhaifisch, the Aries escorted the Raumhaifisch, but the Thunderforge remained. The Zion forces that were left were shocked and horrified and were being slaughtered by the IE. Rob: REI!! do something! say something to them to get them to regroup! this is no time to panic! cyberlink - 06 Feb 2003 08:05 am Post subject: IC: Rei: rob i hear you, ill see what i can do, but thats out home down there, people's lives and famlies are at risk. Rei contacts all the Zion force and tries to regain order... Rei: ALL ZION FORCES, I KNOW WHAT A LOSS WE HAVE JUST ENCOUNTERED, BUT THIS IS NO TIME TO BECOME SWEICIDAL, THE ONLY WAY TO STOP A CATASTROPHY LIKE THAT HAPPENING AGAIN IS FO FIGHT IN AN ORDLE MANNER, ITS NO GOOD JUST HACKING AWAY, YOU NEED A PLAN. DO YOU GET ME!!! All the zoin forces stopped fleeing and followed the commands given to them by Rei. Rei: rob, Mukuro, and lev. Its nice to see you here. sorry i didnt have the chance to say before, zion salu....... Suddenly a blast form the Raumhaifisch catches the right booster on the Austoria, a huge explosion sends it into a downward spiral. The Zion forces look on is disbelief. Rei: Aghh. Im hit, thats what i get for distracting my self with mindless banter.... stabiliser systems malfunctioning, boosters 1+2 offline, 70% hull integrity. Engaging nano-repair systems, Rob, Lev and Mukuro dont sacrifice your lives for me, leave.... its too late!!! Another blast form the Raumhaifisch heads towards the imobilised Austoria, Rei looks on accepting his fate, he knew that this would be the last.... suddenly a suit blocks the path of the Raumhaifisch's fire and deflects the beam. Who the was he didnot know, blinded by the light of what would be his final moments all he could see was a faint outline. Rob: who is that....... DeathscytheX - 06 Feb 2003 07:35 pm Post subject: OOC: plz read posts more carefully the Raumhaifisch was in retreat leaving.. but its possible it let those shots out on its way out.. but it is no longer on the battle field now. Rob saw the suit come into clear it was the VZX-NARC (Top Volarian suit). Rob: The Volarians! The Volarian fleet attacked the thunderforge from the flank side, pounding its haul with a heavy barrage of missiles, Volarian suits swarmed the area, The Zion forces were no longer out numbered now that the 2nd biggest military force in the universe was here. Fei: You didnt think I'd let you have all the fun eh Rob? Looks like you finished the cake already tho. (talking about the Raumhaifisch) Rob: Great to see you found the party, It was kinda dying off anyways. Rob took out some IE suits with the chaingun with a sigh of relief, now that the Raumhaifisch was gone and the Volarian forces were here, The battle was not the IEs to win any longer. cyberlink - 07 Feb 2003 09:07 am Post subject: OOC: actually i did read the post, since the Raumhaifisch was in retreat iw would make sence to clear a path and cover iots tracks. Its is possible mo move and fire at the same time you know.... The Zion forces cheered as the Volarian suits began to turn the tide of the Battle. With rei unable to move he did what he could from where he was taking shots at passing IE suits and firing at the distant Cruisers. Rei: Zion forces report status.. Force leader 2: we have heave casualties, we only have a few hundred suits left!! Rei: by the moons on zarcron. how could they do this.... The VZX-NARC units were an amazing site, and a grate relief. The IE suits were in disaray and chaos was sealing their fate, MMI:*nano-repair systems compleate, enagaging primary thrusters* Rei: Mukuro, Lev and Rob. you guys okay?? whats your status? DeathscytheX - 07 Feb 2003 04:09 pm Post subject: OOC: indeed, but the Aries was escorting it, since the Raumhaifisch took extensive damage it wouldnt risk lowering its hypersheild to let suits into the hole in its haul. Rob: Im low on ammo but Im doing fine... Shiva, bring the Zanzabar to my location. The Zanzabar decloaked and arrived where Rob was, the X docked and Rob quickly got into the cockpit of the zanzabar which had full ammunition. Rob piloted the Zanzabar using its railguns to mow down IE forces. The Thunderforge retreated with what power it had left, it was severly damaged from the massive assaults from the Volarian destroyers. the IE suits were left out to dry with no support left. The Zanzabar fired its anit-matter cannon at a IE gunner ship and destoryed it. Rob: Lev, Rei, Mukuro, The Zanzabar can hold 1 more suit if any of you need repairs or ammuntion, i have just about any kind you can think of. Rob cleared a path with the high energy beam cannons and then put up the energy field. Rob: woo shiva you pack some power now! Shiva: Indeed, I can kick arse and take names. Rob: haha! some attitude! your growing on me now! *hiroko would probably freak if he was still around *... lets test out that new booster system we put in last week. Vyper - 07 Feb 2003 09:08 pm Post subject: The Timberwolf shot off for the Ethereal, when Hiroko began talking to Tsubasa. Hiroko: Dude - you could've jumped earlier. What if that armada had seen us. Tsubasa: They're not looking for my ship, now are they? Hiroko: Oh yeah! -They're looking for the Zanzabar. I guess Rob can have that for awhile (I hope he doesn't soup it up or anything..) Gundam-Ranger-X - 07 Feb 2003 11:15 pm Post subject: 'Naw I got my own ship now, but thanks for offering.' The dual gatling cannon riped throught the IE suits that got too close while the beam sniper riffle and LRMs took out whatever forces were retreating. 'This is getting a to be fun. If I'm not carefull I might make a habit of this again. Speaking of wich, Rob can I ask you something ?' DeathscytheX - 08 Feb 2003 06:11 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Depends on the question.. shoot away... no pun intended Rob plows through some helpless IE suits. Rob: hmm this battle seems to be over Micromissiles pounded the zanzabar's energy field Shiva: energy shield down to 47% The Zanzabar blew holes through the assaulting gunner ship like swiss cheese. Gundam-Ranger-X - 08 Feb 2003 10:33 pm Post subject: 'Well I was wondering if I could join you on your quets against the IE ? I could be pretty usefull, as a sniper, a spy, anything, I'm desprate.' Lev re-shouldered the beam sniper riffle and put the dual gatling cannon away. Strider Hiryu - 08 Feb 2003 11:11 pm Post subject: (you know what I think its time for me to resurface.

Well now where to. We seem to have lost signs of the X and Rob since we came here. Denethor: I'm sure we'll find him. We just need to search for the recent attacks on the IE or recent IE attacks cause I'm sure he was in one of them. Spike: True. Shall I start searching? Denethor: No not now. Let us head to Shakuras so I can upgrade my suits and weaponry. That and I can go see my other friend. Spike: Not him. Anybody but him. You know what happened the last time we asked for his help. Denethor: Yea I do but hey it was fun wasn't it. Spike: If you call being shot at by 20 IE destroyers fun then you must be nuts. Denethor: You know I am. I mean come on I'm basically not human or whatever I was before that accident so why not have fun as a cyborg. Spike: Your nuts but you know what your doing. Setting course for Shakuras now. *The Stalker heads off toward the nearest wormhole that will take them to Shakuras* DeathscytheX - 08 Feb 2003 11:45 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Sorry, I have no quests. I attack, and cause havoc on the IE. I have no real purpose but to be the thorn in there side. My campaignes arent for recognition, they are for vegance. I can only work with people for so much, I am very ambitious and like the solo life most often over team work. Rob: Rei, Mukuro, Fei.. the IE forces are deminision and going into retreat.. I think the Zion and and Volarion forces can finish it up from here. Im headed off to get something checked i found..... ... Shiva. set a course to the Earths Moonlab Research facility. we are gonna get this viral report checked out. Shiva: word.. Rob: .. Maxium possible speed.

IC: Mukuro: If it's about the plague, I'll send a crew to see the results. In the meantime, I need to make some changes to my new mech, so it'll be out of comission for a few days. The engineer's price lives in the Sirius colonies, so that's where I'll be if you need anything.

A wave of emotion overcame him as he loked bask onto the tattered ruins of the Cities, Those of which were distroyed by the blasts from the Raumhailfisch.

What they saw amazed Hiroko: A huge flying ship the size of a planet, with a large clear dome over a metropolis. It was a flying metropolis. Inside was lush vegetation, and organic buildings. Hiroko had never seen anything like it before in his life. Hiroko: Oh my god... Tsubasa: I know. Beautiful, isn't it? Hiroko: Ye- Hiroko was cut off by Tsubasa. Tsubasa: It's a shame we're going to destroy it. Hiroko: Why? Isn't it a Polaris homeworld? Tsubasa: Well, yes.. but they declared themselves independant from the Polarian Empire several centuries ago. What's more, they've declared lineage with the IE. Hiroko: Why would they do that?! Anyways(quickly) you can't just kill them - they're the only Polarias left!! Tsubasa: Not necessarilly - it's not like those on Polaris Prime were the only ones.. there are others all over the galaxy. :: Hiroko isn't amused :: Tsubasa: Look.. it wasn't my choice either.. I have an unconditional contract from the past with a client and they need me to do this for the last mission. Their other missions have had moral, and I'm not going to question their ethics.

Rob: Well shiva the outter haul of the Zanzabar no longer matches their desicripion.. I mean with the black/grey paint, 2 rail guns, anti-matter caonnon, chain guns, micro missile pods, bigger thrusters, and energy sheild.. only the shape of of core haul resembles its former self, dont forget we can cloak at will also. Shiva: yes but dont you think they would track the serial codes or something? Rob: I changed thoes Shiva: Oh, that may account to the many readjustments i had to make to my system. Rob: oh yeah.. sorry i forgot to tell you, the only way they could find out this was the Zanzabar is by looking at its energy frequency waves that are outputed from the power core.. and no one would ever thing of that except maybe someone that owned the ship before. Shiva: indeed... where are we headed? Rob: *sips coffee* ah no where in particular just keep on course. Azrael - 13 Feb 2003 09:08 pm Post subject: OOC: Gee, wonder where this is going. EDIT: *looks down* Yay! A villain! Gundam-Ranger-X - 13 Feb 2003 09:15 pm Post subject: Lev stood dumbfounded. He didn't take to kindly to Rob's regection. 'Rob, you've just made a powerfull enemy...... Actually you just gave me the mother of all ideas.' He said to himself knowing Robs was far beyond comunicatons rage by now. 'Caball, come pick me up and plot a course for the Aries. Caball : But that's an IE ship. Lev : I know, I'm gonna go make a visit with an old freind. And if all goes well I might be able to cut a deal with him.' Lev's ship came and picked him up, almost instantly it headed to where the Aries was last know to be........near the Raumhaifisch.

Rob: Patch him threw. Fei: Rob I have good news. Rob: oh really? Fei: We have completely restored and recontructed the wreckage from Neo-Tokoyo. The Volarian Fleet has its secret weapon in full force thanks to your information and directions. Rob: Excellent.. Keep it under wraps.. did you follow my instructions about the hypersheild... Fei: yes, it works perfectly.. I do have a question tho.. if you know how to make a hypersheild that stays up forever, why doesnt the X's. Rob: too much power required.. the cores needed would be too weighted on the chassy, slowing it down. Fei: so the X never got completed to be the ultimate mecha eh? Rob: who said this is Project X? Fei: is it not? Rob: nevermind that.. keep testing it... it may not be as big, but its our best chance againts the Raumhaifisch.. it has a suprise factor.. order the crew to keep tracking my vessel. I will call if I need them. Fei: I understand. Rob: I cant wait to see the look on there faces. Fei: indeed.. over and out. Shiva: Rob massive mechanicle structure 240 miles away. Rob: What is it? Shiva: I do not know.. it is the size of a planetoid. Rob: WHAT?! main screen turn on! () The monitor turned on to show a ship thousands of times bigger than the raumhaifisch. Rob: what in screaming angry wombats is that?! status shiva.. Shiva: it seems to have no weaponry.. it is like a biosphere.. it holds as much life.. Rob: A colony the shape of a ship then? Shiva: indeed. Rob: amazing... cloak the zanzabar shiva.. we dont wanna be detected. cyberlink - 14 Feb 2003 11:17 am Post subject: With Rei back on Zion, and chaos envelopin all around him he knew what he had to do...He ran directley to the command centre and called the remaining forces back to docks,.

Rei: NO FATHER YOU CANT GO! STAY!! NO DONT! Commander: ever so sleepy. ill just rest my eyes for a moment son. i will be with you always. i will never leave you. With that Rei's father closes his eyes and falls into an ertinal slumber, Rei: FATHER NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Rei clutches the body of his father close to his heart. tears of sorrow run down his face and fall onto his fathers face. Still crying Rei Begins to hear a voice call after him. 'Rei.....REI!! ANSWER ME! where are you rei.' Rei: He..he...hello?? whos there! show yourself! a face appears around the corner and rei cant believe what he sees. Rei: sukanimi, what are you doing here!! yo have to leave. get to the underground station quickley. the radiation wi... Sukanimi: REI! SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO ME! Rei: but..... Sukanimi: Rei, i know that the commander is dead, and we both need to get out of here but the reactor is gonna blow! its way too unstable! Rei: I dont care. let it blow... death is only the beggining. Sukanimi: LISTEN TO YOURSELF REI!! THERE IS NO POINT IN DYING NOW! ZION NEEDS YOU!! Rei: So let someone else become commander!! Sukanimi: Rei, you are the only suprieme commander left! there is no one else!! *! 2 MINUTES TILL CORE DETONATION!* Sukanimi: REI!! we have to get out NOW!! Rei: okay, help me with father, Rei and sukanimi his long lost love drag the body of the commander to a veichle near the door of the complex. REI: GO GO GO!! *!10 SECONDS TILL CORE DETONATION!* Sukanimi: hold on! The veichle takes off and hurtles down the road... * 3,2,1* The core of the command complex detonates and eradicates everything in a 5 mile radus.

I cant waist any ammo.. The Monitor turns on to reviel polarian suits. Rob: look, they're polarian.. The polarian suits begain attacking the Zanzabar Rob: I mean no harm, halt all attacks. Rob then saw the IE decals on the suits. he then knew what he had to do. Rob: Well, you arent polarians after all, just scum bags using there technology. Pilot: we are polarian in orgin, but unlike our ancestors we know whats good for us. Rob: heh. yeah right. Rob rail guned 2 suits and chain guned through 3 other, he fired a bulk load of mircomissles and spun around from behind and hit the remaining suits with the Anti-Matter cannon in unpresendented speed by the Zanzabar. Rob: well shiva I'd say this is a big improvement from last time, with thoes mercinaries in peurto rico eh? Shiva: Yes i have finally adusted to the new truster systems.

I would like to know whats been going on with the IE lately plus I wanna know what happened on the planet awhile ago. I'm gonna go find Geddoe and see if hes got my weapon upgrades. Spike: Right but remember I will not allow you to bring that man on this ship. The last time he was one here he almost destroyed it. Denethor: I know. Also when you get ahold of Rob tell him where we're at. Spike: Right. *Denethor heads to the hanger, gets aboard the Shadow Sun, and launches off to head for Mirabar, the capital of Shakuras* Denethor: SS can you find any trace of Geddoe in these parts? SS comp: From what I can tell he hasn't been to active lately. The last thing about him was from about two days ago. It says he got into a fight with an IE patrol. He disappeared after that. I have his address shall I set a corse for his place. Denethor: Yes if you please. *Denethor heads toward Geddoe's hangout* DeathscytheX - 15 Feb 2003 07:47 pm Post subject: IC: Shiva: Rob.. its that bastard again... Rob: Hatsuma! The Zanzabar fires mircomissiles at the NV-MAD7, Rob knew they would be dodged, the Zanzabar cloaked and appeared behind the Hotaru-2 and decloaked with its anti-matter cannon charged. Rob: Hatsuma! I knew you were behind this!!! Hiroko: Hatsuma? Me?! hell no... wait..... Rob? Rob: Hiroko? omg... ur alive! the particle cannon dissapates Hiroko: where is my ship? Rob: uuuuh... this is the zanzabar..

Shiva: Dude what the hell are you doing? Hiroko (stopped fom tearing stuff up): Sh-shiva? Shiva: Rob, what's this fruit's prob? Rob: Uh oh.. Hiroko rushes up to the console, and begins a format until he's stopped by her lock out mechanism, which consists of playing a clip from 2001 : A Space Odyssee, with HAL 9000 saying over and over, 'Don't do this to me, Dave.'

Rob: hiroko... c'mon man, the Zanzabar is 300x times better than when you had it last.. look at it, full defensive and offensive capabilities, faster, stronger, better, cooler. Shiva: word to yo muthaboard! Hiroko: what have u done to shiva?! Rob: hey... i didnt mess with shiva.. she kinda *shrugs* did that on her own somehow.. i really cant explain it.... besides man, we thought you died.. I wouldnt have made these modifications to the zanzabar if i had known you were still around. just chill man..

Rei: sukanimi, keep talking. I think we are trappen in some sort of undergroung carven. Sukanimi: how can that be. we were on the I406 When the wave hit us. How did we end up here? Rei: My only explaination is that this was allready here and the I406 was built on top. when the shockwave hit it must have opened up the ground whch in turn swallowed us. Sukanimi: Rei, its getting wet in here, i can feel the water risingg up my legs. Rei: well there isnt any water by me and you sound close, keep talking, Rei searches for Sukanimi while the water rises around her, He eventually finds her trapped in a pit along with the truck. Rei: SUKANIMI!!! are you alright? Sukanimi: yeah, but the water keeps coming in. Rei: it must be the pipes, they got fractured in the blast. ill see what i can find to haul you up. As Rei searches for something to rescue Sukanimi he remembers about his father, where was his body?? Rei: SUKANIMI!! IS MY FATHER DOWN THERE WITH YOU?? Sukanimi: yes, his body is if thats what you mean, im not particually comfortable swimming with a dead person, SO GET ME OUT OF HERE!!!! Rei fumbles around in the dark for something to pull her out, he then grabbs what he thinks is a peice of rope and gives it a pull. Rei: ughh,, Damn peice of Rope, why wont you budge!! Rei pulls on the rope with all his might working it loose, It suddenly gives way and rei is sent flying backwards onto his arse. Rei: OUCH! Sukanimi, ive got the rope. hold on Sukanimi: Hurry Rei!! it up to my waist now! Rei rund towards the pit where Sukanimi is trapped and lowers the rope down. Rei: grab on! grab my father as well!! Sukanimi: i cant hes stuck! the trucks pinned him against the wall! i cant move him!! Rei: Sukanimi! you have to try, get my father for me plaease dont leave him! Sukanimi: Its no use!! He wont budge! REI pull me up quick!! the waters up to my head now! its getting hard to breathe! Rei: not without my father! Sukanimi: rei, help! i cant....... Sukanimi begins to cry as the water gets ever closer to enveloping her in the cold dark deapths. Rei: SUKANIMI! JUST TRY PLEASE!!! Rei breaks down in tears in the thaught that his fathers body would be left in a dreadfull place like this. He then hears a voice.... Voice: Rei.. it no use dwelling in the past. look to the future my son. what done is done and nothing you can do can change that. let me go rei, i will always be with you.... Rei: FATHER!!! h...how.....why...... Voice: you must do what you have to do my son.. Rei: I know but im too scared to. Voice: you must! DO IT!] Rei pulls hard on the rope with Sukanimi on the other end, the ground begins to shake and a faing rumble can be heard comeing closer form one end of the cavern. Sukanimi: Rei hurry! this place is going to fall apart! HURRY! Rei pulls with all his might and eventually Sukanimi emerges from the mouth of the pit! Sukanimi: RUN!! Sukanimi scrambles to her feat and heads to an opening in the walls of the cavern. Dust falls all around them and it gets very difficult to see where they are going. Rei: Sukanimi where are we going? Sukanimi: i have no idea! all i know is that there is a light comeing form that gap in the wall and it seems better than being crushed in this place! Rei and Sukanimi run towards the gap in the wall with the cavern falling appart all around them. They squeeze though the gap and are greeted by a blinding light. Rei: wh....wha....what is this place?? Sukanimi: I dont know... it looks like a lab of some sort. Rei: well whoever was in here wasn't much of a cleener.. Rei runs his hand over the dust covered worktops and web covered bottles. Sukanimi: i dont have any recollection of this ever being here... its not on any of the Confederation Blueprints. Rei: well its deffinatley here! Im gonna take a look around. Sukanimi: i dont think tahts a good idea rei. whoever lives here could still be here. Rei: what in this mess. i mean take a look around Sukanimi, Even I couldent live in this. Sukanimi: well i suppose, but your room does sorta look like this... Rei: HAY, i resent that. Common Sukanimi. give me a break will ya! Rei turns and walks towards a door at the oppositre end of the room. Rei: well if were stuck in here we might as well see who or what else is.

Rob: so what are you doing out here? cyberlink - 18 Feb 2003 08:57 am Post subject: Rei disapeared through the door, Sukanimi watched and listened, she was very anctious to see what was behind that door herself, but she was too afrade. As she waited around in the cold laboratory, she noticed symbols on the walls. She looked at them in turn and named them. Sukanimi: Risk of Fire, Corrosives, Flamable materials. Wait whats this?? Sukanimi walked towards the strande symbol. It was seperate from the others and appeared to be more like an emblem than a sign, She looked closley at its design. What was this strange symbol?? Sukanimi: REI!! COME LOOK AT THIS..... Rei walked through the door again and walked up to sukanimi. Rei: what is it sukanimi?? Sukanimi: look, what does this mean?? Sukanimi pointed to the emblem on the wall. Rei looked closley at it and he faintley remembered something his mother told him when he was very young,.. Rei: This looks fimilar.. i remember my mother telling me about one of the Mech tourniments that was held 100 years ago this very day. In the final there were 2 very corragious and vallient worriors. One was keli Keran and the other was... Sukanimi: MASTER MICCA!! Rei: yeah, you heard the story too?? Sukanimi: yeah, but its not a story, it actually happened. Rei: anyway, Master Micca won and claimed the zion tittle. but the power went to his head. he tried to overthrow the cenit and was caught, He was then bannished to the wastelands where he should never returen. But people reported that they say Master Micca a few days after his bannishment. The guards searched the entire area but to no avail. To this very day people still say that they see the Bannished Master and that he has a secreat Lab somewhere in the Wastelands. Waiting for his tome to come.... biding his time.... Sukanimi: but what would he need a lab for?? couldent he have a nice cozy home to go to instead of a cold prison? Rei: HELLO!!! SUKANIMI.. WE ARE IN REALITY HERE!! anyway, the romour is that he was in his lab constructing the most powerful mech known to all the universe. Sukanimi: how can that be.. how could he do that? Re: with the power of the Star of Zorin. Sukanimi: but he couldent have. you have it. Rei: one peice of it yes.... the star fell in 2 peices. one was given to the high commander and passed down through the generations, the other was lost. stolen and stolen again by power mad dictators. Master Micca couldent have compleated his design because I still have the second peice. If he had then we would be under his reign by now. Sukanimi: so this Star of Zorin.. it comes in two peices. and for the star to unleash its power the two peices need to be brought back together... Rei: exactley. My guess is, is that this is the Underground Laboratory of Master Micca. And that if this legend is true, then the mech that he created lays somewhere in this place... the question is where?? Sukanimi: HAY i could do that. im not part of the government for nothing. Give me your PDA. Sukanimi takes Rei's PDA and attaches it to a central computer router hub. Sukanimi: right here we go. all i have to do is to access the security grid mapping system and that should tell us everything about this place, there, I have it. Rei: what does it tell you? Sukanimi: WOW!! this place is enormous!! There must be 10000 of gigawads of information in those servers. anyway.. ah... here it is. it says that there is a mech maintenence facility in the west of the complex. Rei: well what are we waiting for?? lets get going... Rei and Sukanimi head off towards the Mech maintenence facility, hoping to find what has been legend all these years..... Vyper - 20 Feb 2003 07:51 pm Post subject: Shady Figure: Arbeitsbuch, this is Mirra. Arbeitsbuch: Yes? Mirra: The NV-MAD7 will be attacking the Polarian Ethereal. I request that you send the Liberator in hopes of capturing him. Arbeitsbuch: An entire battlecruiser? Mirra: Yes; the costs for hunting him and the X down together have actually costed as much as 75% of the budget for the Raumhaifisch. Arbeitsbuch: I wasn't the one to make that budget cut Why not just send the Raumhaifisch? Mirra: ...that brings me to the other thing I needed to tell you. Arbeitsbuck: Ah, I'm not surprised you have something else to say, because you would've gone after him yourself if otherwise. Mirra: Erm..yes. It seems someone has set the sensor traps in Doctor Micca's old lab. We have confirmed that it does contain the suit that won the last grand tournament 100 years ago, last because in the battle both specatator cruisers were destroyed by the battle. Arbeitsbuch: I'm way ahead of you - we can't be chasing down three suits. Mirra: Yes.. I am proposing that you demolish the Micca Complex with the Raumhaifisch. Arbeitsbuch: *sigh* We simply can't because of all of the budget cuts. Mirra: Then take it out of my budget. --------------------------------------------- Hiroko: I'm with Auriana's brother's guild. I'm about to go on a solo mission; I have to destroy the Ethereal. An error in the alert system on Shiva occured when Hiroko freaked out, and broke the speakers, thus not being able to alert them of the approaching IE Liberator battlecruiser. The monitor read, 'Estimated arrival time: two hours.' Gundam-Ranger-X - 20 Feb 2003 09:14 pm Post subject: Lev had finally made it to the Aires and turned on his comm. 'I am former IE pilot Sergei Djougachivili. I wish to speak with your captain, he's an old aquaintance of mine.' -Radio operator: Very well, proceed to docking bay 3, if you show any sings of agression you will be destroyed. -Lev: Understood.' With that the first part of his 'new life' was set into motion and hed proceded to said docking bay. DeathscytheX - 20 Feb 2003 11:03 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Ah, I C.. so i guess ur gonna want ur ship back eh? Hiroko: yes, that would be nice. Rob: *sigh*.. here are all the access codes and system data. Shes a good ship..... Shiva.. i'm gonna miss ya. dont be too hard on hiroko..... well Hiroko. its good to see ur ok.. I have some things I have to take care of.. godspeed. Rob and Hiroko shake hands and Rob jumps in the X and brusts off into space. The X arrives near a familar ship's silhouette that is being ecipsed by a small moon. Rob: IEBC561D come in.. this is the X, permission to Dock. Com: Ah.. welcome Mr. Opsulous.. General Fei told us you would be coming... I find it funny how you called this elite vessel by its numberical value Rob: hmph, you never know who may be listening in.. only a few others know what that means... if they happend to be tapping in on our converstation.. they wouldnt believe it anyways. Com: indeed. Dock at Bay 44 on the port side. Rob: Roger that. The X docks on the bay of IEBC561D, two volarian commanders salute Rob as he hopes off the X. Rob: at ease gentlemen, there is much to be done. Im supprised you volarians didnt put ur on technology in this ship.. im glad u kept it original. Commander: Yes sir.. General Fei commanded that it would remain as u requested. Infact we are using all the infomation on this ship to improve our own fleet. Rob: very good.. Rob and the Commanders reach the bridge, Rob goes up to the tactical console and punches in a bunch of codes, the main screen pops up with the location of every IE station, ship, squad, and outpost. Rob conintues to type stuff in... everthing dissapears off the map except for the location of every battlecrusier. Rob saw that the liberator was headed toward hirokos location and sent him a data message hoping he would get it knowing he couldnt hail him do to the speaker he broke. Commander 2: How did u do all of that?! Rob: hmm *smerk* ur forgetting who my father was.... lets test this bad boy out.... The ship begins to set a course. Azrael - 21 Feb 2003 12:02 am Post subject: His job finished and mech completed, Mukuro was on his way home when he was hailed by a deep-space scavenging group. Officer: This is Commander Gordon of Scavenging Crew 16, we picked up a large IE cruiser passing nearby on our sensors. We sent a scout to get a closer look, and it looks like...someone has revived the Dreadnought. Mukuro: You're fucking kidding me...show me what he's seeing. The commander patched Mukuro through to the scout's cameras, and now there was no doubt. Mukuro: Ok...I will deal with this. Make sure your crew stays out of its visual range. He ended the transmission and sped toward the Dreadnought. He arrived five minutes later in normal time, although he had traveled for several hours. OOC: New ability - Karasu can now create alterations in space-time for itself, allowing it to travel long distances in very short periods of time. Not much use short-range. IC: Mukuro charged the shock cannon and hailed the monolithic cruiser. Mukuro: Who are you that dares revive this monstrosity?!! DeathscytheX - 21 Feb 2003 12:16 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Stand down Mukuro, not even my mech cand damage this ship now. Mukuro: 0-o Rob: Yes It was my idea.. but as u can tell this fully operation battle cruiser no longer has the blue/grey/white paint sceme of the IE but the Gold and navy blue of the Volarians... Dock in Bay 45 Port Side. Azrael - 21 Feb 2003 12:28 am Post subject: After a short pause, Mukuro stood down and docked, completely confused and still somewhat pissed that the Dreadnought was back. He got out of his mech and found Rob. Mukuro: The Volarians...you're sure they're safe with this? Rob: Yeah, they hate the IE. Also, I'm a pretty big celebrity with them. Mukuro: This still feels wrong...I guess I'll get used to it eventually. Are you going to use its old name? DeathscytheX - 21 Feb 2003 12:51 am Post subject: IC: Rob: *grin* Of course.. its a slap in the face to the IE.. I made sure they printed it in nice big black letters on the sides of the vessel. The Volarians can be trusted.. this ship is under my final command anyhow. Commander: Mr. Opsulous we have arrived. Rob: excellent. Mukuro follows Rob and the Commander to the Bridge, the Thunderforge was on the main screen. Rob: Put me on hail. Engineer: ur on. Rob: IE Battlecruiser Thunderforge.. This is the Dreadnaught.. come in TF: WHAT?! The Dreadnaught?! impossilble!! Rob: fire... The Dreadnaught fired its ultra anti-matter cannon at the Thunderforge periceing a hole through its starbaurd side. the turrents pounding it with amazing power never displayed by the dreadnaught before, within seconds all the armor on the side of the Thunderforge was gone, the turrets kept pounding and pounder until only half the ship was left. Rob: cease fire.. launch bio-neutron pods Mukuro: whats going on? Rob: we are getting rid of all the witnesses. A flash of light appeard but the half side that was left of the Thunderforged remained. Mukuro: I dont get it.. Rob: the neutralization of atoms cause them diffuse, they cant stay attacted anymore.. the suvivors vaporized into thin air.. the Volarians figured out how to get a bomb to only affect orgainic material.

Upon arriving outside of it, the Ethereal dispatches twenty units, all to attack Hiroko. Hiroko: I thought this was supposed to happen suddenly. Shiva!! Shiva: Wassup, dawg? Hiroko: ::choke:: back me up here. Shiva: Shizzle my nizzle, bizzle, it's as clear as a referee's whistle. Hiroko: ::gag:: The Zanzabar hammers on the suits, raining hell on anyone in the railguns' general direction. It shoots some scatter missiles, which all split into twenty smaller missiles, and clear out the remnants. One small suit is left. Hiroko: Well I just wanted some support Hiroko charges at the small suit with his beam sabre extended, which is destroyed by a single rail slug before he hits it. Hiroko: Well... I'm going in. Hiroko flys onto the transparent composite creating a bubble over the Ethereal. He sticks the beam sabre into it, and cuts a slit big enough for him to get in. He drops in, and oxygen is sucked into space, but ceases as the composite organically grows back. As soon as he enters all bystanders panick, and then rail turrets pop up everywhere from the ground. Weapons pods disperse from towers, and a squad two times larger than the previous encounter appear from within buildings. Azrael - 23 Feb 2003 11:15 pm Post subject: OOC: Don't have time tonight, so this is going to be short. IC: Mukuro sat down with Rob to catch up on events since Polaris. He was intrigued to hear of what Hiroko had gone through, and made a note to ask his some technical questions later. Once Rob told him about the Ethereal, a fun thought formed in his mind. Mukuro: Remember the plague on the Polaris Minor colonies? Rob: Umm, yeah. Why? Mukuro grinned slightly. Mukuro: The Ethereal sounds like quite an interesting ship...it'd be a shame to destroy it. You may think this a bit cruel of me, but I've got a few samples that would do well to kill off our enemies. Contact Hiroko and let him know. DeathscytheX - 23 Feb 2003 11:53 pm Post subject: OOC: i never picked up any samples i stated that many times, the science team was headed over there to get some, cuzz they couldnt figure out what it was by my data alone.

He'll figure it out. Having satisfied his conscience, Mukuro walked off to get the plague samples. Gundam-Ranger-X - 28 Feb 2003 05:54 am Post subject: Lev and the captain met in his office. They were disscussing a deal and enjoying some tea. Captn: 'Let me get this straight. You are willing to return to the IE and take care of Rob and then go on to eradicate the rebelion. All that in extchange of a full pardon and some upgrades to your mech.' Lev: 'That's the plan.' Captn: 'I think that can e arranged.' Lev: 'One more thing, I'd like to be stationed on the Rhaumenficht.' ((pardon the spelling)) Captn: 'Why there ?' Lev: 'Because that is where Rob will evntually heading. I want to greet him when he does.' Captn: 'Welcome back Lt.' The two shake hands as the deed is set into motion. ------------------------------------- uprades to the Revolution-Massacre weapons: -Particle Projection Sniper Cannon mk.II : has a built in generator so now takes 45 seconds to power up instead of powering down the mech for two minutes. -Funnels x12 : The missile pods have been replaced with 12 funnels of simmilar type of the ones used on the Nu Gundam. They have the ability to return to the mech once there power is low to recharge. They can also create a hyper sheild for short periods of time.

SS: No. I sense nothing in our present location but there are a few crates inside the building and a note. Denethor: Right I'll go take a look. *Denethor pops out of the cockpit and heads over to the crates and takes the note and reads it* The note: Denethor, If your getting this that means I was either killed or captured before you arrived to get your upgrades. Don't try looking for me cause like I said I've probably been killed by the IE. Everything you asked for is located inside these crates. Tell Spike if your still around with him that I'm sorry for that one incident. Well hopefully I'll see ya again but if I don't then this is my final farewell. Your friend, Geddoe Denethor: Damnit Geddoe I told you to stay low till I got here. You stupidass. Ohwell I guess I can't change the past now. SS get ahold of Spike and tell him to bring the ship here so we can get the upgrades on board and upgrade you. SS: Right away. *the SS sends the message to Spike while Denethor checks out the upgrades* (I'll post the upgrades in my next post) Vyper - 28 Feb 2003 02:26 pm Post subject: Hiroko panics because of the tight quarters, and takes the battle into space. He manages to knock several of them out, but they then all circle strafe around him, firing in the process. He watches as their rifles auxillary lock lights turn on, and he thrusts straight upward. The beams converge, and explode vertically, straight towards Hiroko. He barely dodges the beam, scathing the Hotaru 2's left arm. When he finished dealing with it, he was shocked to see they all were around him again, thrusting with their beam sabres drawn. He cringed and squeezed his eyes shut, and just before contact, lasers rained down on them, destroying all of the assailants. Hiroko looked up, suprised, and almost hailed, when he found that they came from some eighty IE suits, with the Liberator not far behind. A huge laser comes from the Liberator, and destroys the Ethereal in an instant. ------------------Two Hours Later---------------------- Hiroko: Ahh!! Let go of me!!!! Hiroko is slammed into a device with recesses large enough for a human body. Hiroko screams and kicks helplessly to no avail, and is locked in. Commander of Liberator: I am Hans. I will be leading an interrogation. I do suggest you cooperate. As he says that, several coils are rolled in by scientists, and are hooked up to sockets in the device. Hans: Don't try anything stupid, either. Several guards raise automatic weapons. Hans: Shall we begin? Hiroko spits at his feet. Hans presses a button and Hiroko's body is thrust around violently under the metal harnesses as his body is pumped full of electricity. Hans: Now SHALL WE BEGIN. Hiroko:... Hans: Where is Rob Opsolous. Hiroko: I don't know. He left. Hans: HAHA! Wrong answer!! Hiroko is shocked again. Hans: What do you know about the Rebel Restoration project of the Dreadnaught? Hiroko: ..what? Hans: You just don't give up, do you? Hiroko is shocked at a much higher volatge, and struggles to keep conscious. Hans: Where is the advanced AI Shiva? Hiroko: :: sneers :: probably plotting to kill you... Hiroko is shocked once again. Various areas of his flesh are now burnt. Hans: Where is Auriana, ex governess of the Polaris. Hiroko: I'LL NEVER TELL YOU IE SCUM!!! Hans: We're obviously not going to get any information out of him. Guards, take the blunt objects, and throw him into a cell. Hans presses a button on the remote, and the latches unlock. Hiroko falls limply onto the ground and the guards begin smacking him mercilessly, bruising him and breaking his bones. -------------One Hour Later------------------ Hiroko wakes up to find himself in a cold, white, sterile cell. He aches all over. He can't move his right arm. In between the different floors of cells, there is a gap wide enough for one more floor, and rails line the inside of it. He watches and sees a cell drop into that row and slide slowly down into a box. When the cell makes it all the way in there, doors seal shut, and fire roars out of the ventilation holes in the top. Hiroko cringes. He looks down his row, and notices that he's on track for the same device. He listens to two passing guards. Guard 1: So I hear they finally got the NV-MAD7 back. Guard 2: Yeah, I hear they're taking it to the Raumhaifisch. Guard 1: That psycho Hatsuma seemed pretty pleased about it. Guard 2: Did you just call him a derogitory word?!?! Guard 1: Erm yeah.. why. Guard 2 points at the cameras. Guard 1: Dude, stop being so paranoid. If he really did just kill people who disrespected or did anything to displease him, he wouldn't be ace pilot for the IE. Guard 2: Well he is pretty good.. They walk through the double doors, only to see Hatsuma sneering with his pistol drawn. He shoots through their foreheads, leaving a trail of blood on the floor. He cocks his gun again and begins walking towards Hiroko's cell with his evil sneer.

Captain: what the hell... *Rob Appears on screen* Rob: Crew of Battlecruiser Aries surrender or perish, you will hand over all data, supplies and suits over to us. Captain: you scumbag! how dare you! who do u think you are, that is IE property.. many IE personel died in that ship. The Dreadnaught's turrets pounded the front of the Aries knocking out its weapon power, and half the ships life support. Rob: There is no time for Debate.. thanks too your lack of command ability even more have died. Volarian suits swarm the Aries Rob: dont think about deploying any units. or I will be forced to destroy your ship. Rob and some Volarian forces board the Aries and secure the area. the captian stares at him evily. Rob punches him in the head, he tries to get back up but it held back by 2 Volarian Officers. Captian: you bastard.. you have yours coming to you.. Lev will take care of you. Rob: Lev? Captian: heh.. i have already said to much Rob: tell me more Captian: ..... Rob beats on the captian relentlessly but he refuses to say anything. Rob: put him in the air lock and send him out into space. Officers: yes sir! Eventually all the IE personel were shoved into a 3 escape vessels, stripped down to its baisics and with only 10 hours of life support and sent off into space. Rob spent hours looking through cameras and audio system files and eventually found the conference he was looking for. Rob: hmm.. so thats it.. he probably just wanted to join me so he could turn me in to the IE for a reward.... heh. the Raumhaifisch eh? Fei comes on board the Aries Fei: well done Rob, I really would have liked it in better condition but its nothing our teams cant repair. Rob: yeah.. its the best I could do.. I dont deal well on mercy for these bastards.. Im sure its driving the IE crazy.. this will be the 2nd battle cruiser we have stolen from them. and we have destoryed one.. Fei: yes and with these, we have new Volarian Starcurisers on the way with improved technology. Rob: excellent... Vyper - 28 Feb 2003 04:14 pm Post subject: Hatsuma sneers at Hiroko, and spits in his face. Hiroko glares back. Hatsuma: Are you ready to die? Hiroko: ...... Hatsuma: Awwww they broke your jaw.. lemme take a look (sneering) Hatsuma opens the door, and as he approaches Hiroko attempts to spring up at him but his body hurts to much, and collapses in pain. Hatsuma: You bastard! You tried to kill me! Hatsuma kicks Hiroko in the gut, causing him to puke. Hatsuma: Well, I guess you'll be seeing your father soon! I must hurry, though, I have to take your suit to the Raumhaifisch. Hatsuma walks to a console, which has a list of all to be executed. Hiroko was number 13. Hatsuma: Haha, unlucky number 13. Hatsuma selects number 12 - bypass. Eleven - bypass. Ten - bypass. Until Hiroko was next in line. All of a sudden Hiroko's cell shuddered. It slowly descended on the rail and began moving for the furnace. Azrael - 28 Feb 2003 05:48 pm Post subject: EDIT: Ehe...ehehe...oops.

Launch the ship. We're going to look for Rob. I'll get the upgrades on myself. Spike: Right. *The Stalker takes off from the planet while Denethor upgrades his suit* -Suit Upgrades- 2x VSBR (variable speed beam rifles) added to take the place of the Beam energy rifle. (have selectable mega particle acceleration speed for damage or penetration application) 1x permenently mounted high energy beam sniper rifle (mounted on shoulder) 2x hyper jammers (you know what they're used for) 2x more machine cannons 2x anti-matter missle pods (2 missles each) (stonger then your ordinary missles due to the anti-matter inside the warheads) ----Two Hours Later---- Denethor: Alright the suit has been upgraded. Any sign of Rob yet. Spike: No. I can't find him anywhere. The IE is in such a fuss that its hard to get any clear radio transmissions on the location of Rob. Denethor: Right. Then send out a coded message for Rob. I need to get ahold of him right away. Things seem to be getting quite serious after that Polaris incident.

Rob: ah.. ask him what he needs, give him our locational data so he will beable to track and find us if needed. In the mean time, set a course of the last known location of the liberator... its the IE's newest battlecruiser, and youngest more inexperianced crew. Strider Hiryu - 03 Mar 2003 08:49 am Post subject: Spike: Denethor I just go a message back from Rob. I now have his location. Shall we head to where hes at. Denethor: Yes and make haste. I want to get to him as soon as possible. I'm sure the IE will be looking for us soon cause those weapons that Geddoe got were stolen from an IE weapons depot so I'm sure thats what happened to him. Spike: Right heading there now. Also they asked what we needed. Denethor: Just send a message saying that I'll tell him when we get there. *they head off toward Rob* DeathscytheX - 03 Mar 2003 03:59 pm Post subject: IC: Officer: A small ship has approched our area. Rob: Its him.. decloake and allow them to dock. *The Dreadnaught Decloaks while Spike and Denethor look in amazement for it was the 1st time they seen the ressurected battlecruser* Rob: Denethor Dock in bay 52. Rob is there to greet Denethor as he steps off his ship, He explains to him why and how the Dreadnaught is fully operational again. Rob: So, why did you come? Officer: Mr. Opsulous we will be arriving near the Liberators location in 2 hours. Rob: well done. keep on course. Strider Hiryu - 03 Mar 2003 05:45 pm Post subject: Denethor: Well lets see for one thing I would like to know how that skirmish on Polaris Prime turned out and another thing is what the hell is going on with the IE lately. They seem to be in an uproar lately. Spike: Plus we think they might have taken a friend of ours prisoner. Denethor: Thats not important. I just really want to know whats going on cause I'm beginning to fear that the IE is getting a little to powerful for there own good. Azrael - 03 Mar 2003 06:45 pm Post subject: When Mukuro got to the Ethereal, it was not the glorious planetoid ship that he had heard about, but a massive field of debris. Somewhat annoyed but not all that surprised, Mukuro hailed Rob to tell him that Hiroko had already destroyed Ethereal. DeathscytheX - 03 Mar 2003 11:45 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Polaris Prime is no longer an inhabital planet *brings up the Raumhaifich on the main screen* The IE has some new indestructable ultracruiser as you can see here, I dont know what going on really, they attacked a planet they had no use for, and planeted some kinda virus on starbases that kills people. Officer: we dont know that it was the IE Rob: it was. i know it had to be... anyways I take it you didnt find Alton.. thats because since the Prime incident, officials have changed there schedules. Im having the engineers download all the IE info on this ship into your computers. all you need to know will be there. from what I have learned, Alton supplyed a hansom part in the funding of Project Raumhafisch. Officer: Mr. Opsulous we have a hail from Mukuro. Mukuro: Rob.. the Ethereal has been destoryed. I guess Hiroko did the job. Rob: ah ic looks like me managed to pull it off before the Liberator got there.. anywho We are about an hour away from it, I plan on taking that one also. Thanks for the report. Strider Hiryu - 04 Mar 2003 08:53 am Post subject: Denethor: Alton isn't a worry of mine anymore but thanks for the info. I have heard rumors of that battleship and thats whats scaring me now. Alton will get his one day but till then I'm not worried about him. Plus I'm sure if he had a part in creating this battleship that hes either on board or is not far from it. So this virus do you know anything about it then the fact that its being released in starbases? I haven't heard a thing about that but then I have been out of the IE news traffic and the rebel traffic on the comm lines for the past few weeks. Spike: Yea well. Denethor I'm gonna head back to the ship and make sure all the data gets in their correctly. Denethor: Right. I'll be here talking to Rob for awhile. DeathscytheX - 04 Mar 2003 04:40 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Well, durring our little scrimish on Polaris Prime, the surviving Polarians shipped off to colonies around other Polaris planets that were not inhabitable.. a few weeks later they a misteriously died off.. I believe that virus is the cause of it. I really hope capturing the Liberator will shed some light since it is the most recent battlecuriser is should have some information other ships do not. Especially in its mission logs. The IE has always been to powerful, its the Sepratists numbers that are growing, and becoming stronger.. Which has the Federation very worried. so they pump more funding into the IE to hope they will beable to take care of it. I also have heard the Crest croperation has new suits its about to release.. I have a bad feeling about them after the Raumhaifisch.. I think they have some new young scientists with fresh ideas.. poor bastards dont know what their skills are really being used for. Gundam-Ranger-X - 04 Mar 2003 05:56 pm Post subject: Lev arrived at the Raumhaifisch, his trip was uneventfull. His newly upgraded mech was unloaded into one of the mech hangars and Lev procede to check out his quarters. These were situated in on the officers deck. They were restreint and compact. He had his own bathroom and his own living room. Lev set up his laptop. Caball activated and scanned the area. 'Nice place, but I bet the rent is terrible.' Lev: 'If I wanted your comentary I'd have programed it into you.' Caball: 'You couldn't program a VCR.' Lev got stuburn and threw a shirth over Caball's monitor, he couldn't believe he'd just been burned by a computer A.I. Granted, Caball was no ordinary A.I. Strider Hiryu - 04 Mar 2003 06:12 pm Post subject: Denethor: Poor bastards is right. Well this virus thing doesn't sound to good. Well if you do need my help I am willing to help with this since it seems that Alton will be busy and out of my grasp while this is going on. I don't know what Spike will say seeing as how we work together only when it benefits the both of us but I'll talk to him about it. So a new young scientist. Well I hope hes nothing like the others cause the others were fricken genuises especially Alton but that was only when he created my suit. Vyper - 04 Mar 2003 08:04 pm Post subject: Hatsuma laughed maniacally as Hiroko moved into a furnace. Then, a general ran in, and whispered to Hatsuma. Hatsuma aquired a surprised look on his face, and stopped the rail, saying 'Sorry! I can't witness your death right now! You'll just have to wait there.' and ran up into the bridge. Hatsuma: Okay, men. We hopefully tricked them into thinking we were full of newbs instead of vets. We have detected the ressurected Dreadnaught heading on an attack course towards us. Ready the artillery railguns and megaparticle cannons. Prepare the ballistic missiles. Just then, the commander of the Liberator bursted into the bridge, accompanied by two elite guards. Commander: Who the hell do you think you are!!?? Just okaying assassinations and ordering the crew - the commander!?!? Hatsuma: Indeed. Commander: Kill him!!! The two guards began shooting at Hatsuma but he dove under a control console, which wasn't hit because the guards were shot by the men controlling the Liberator. Hatsuma: You ignorant pig. After all this time you never realized that we were planning on a revolt against you. Drag him into the cell with Hiroko. :: strokes chin and thinks to himself, 'I wonder why they thought if we were unexperienced why we were able to capture Hiroko..' :: You'll have to send the NV-MAD7 in an unmanned pod. ------------------------- An alarm sounds on the Dreadnaught: 'Incoming object!!' Rob: What? A preemptive strike? Mukuro: Apparently.. Rob: Prepare anti-missile systems. Radar Attender: It's approaching too fast!!! The cargo pod zooms straight past them.

Do the Vol- He was interrupted by his com beeping with a text transmission. Mukuro: Umm, excuse me a moment. After a very brief conversation, he closed it and turned back to Rob. Mukuro: Ok. Now, do the Volarians have anything that they can send to intercept that pod and find out what's in it? DeathscytheX - 05 Mar 2003 02:33 am Post subject: IC: Rob: What is in that pod Officer: seems to be a suit Rob: what kind? Officer: I cant tell, the pod has jammers on it. Rob: decloak. The Dreadnaught decloaks. Rob: Battlecruser Liberator.. Surrender your vessel. Hatsuma: Rob Opsulous.. I had a feeling you were behind this. Rob: Hatsuma.. Hatsuma: HAHAHA! it is you that will give us back our vessel. Rob: *flicks hatsuma off* screw you ass.. you dont stand a chance against our power. Hatsuma: oh really? The Liberator fires ballicstic missles but they are all intercepted by the Dreadnaughts anti-missile systems. Hatsuma: hmm.. block this.. The Liberator fires its Rail Guns and Mega particle cannons at the dreadnaught.. the assult nails the dreadnaughts hall and bounces off like water as a red orb appears around the dreadnaught. Hatsuma: hypersheild?! Rob: *laughs* you idiot.. I told you you were no match for the mighty dreadnaught. The Dreadnaught fires its Thermal Cannons heating up the liberators haul as it is pounded by turrets. The liberator 80% of its power. its bay doors open and new model IE suits swarm out. Rob and Denethor look at each other and run back to the hanger. leaving the Captian incharge. Rob Jumps in the X and fires out of the bay into the battle. Swarmers from the X nail 2 suits.. they only get partially damanged and keep coming at the X. Rob: Damn.. they are stronger than normal. The X pulls out its plasma rods and finsihed off the job by blasted straight through the middle of the 2 and cutting them in half. Rob: Computer.. locate the NV-MAD7R *crosshair appears on screen*... excellent. *Volarian squads come out the dreadnaught ready for battle* Strider Hiryu - 05 Mar 2003 08:54 am Post subject: *Denethor jumps into the cockpit and Launches* Denethor: Alright SS give the 5 closest targets to my postion. We're going to use the Plasma Blast Special on them. SS: Right. *five suits are targeted* Denethor: Alright fire when its ready. *the Shadow Sun launches out a huge burst of Crimson Red plasma energy and seeks out the five suits and destroys four of them* Denethor: Alright why weren't all five destroyed. SS: They seem to have some new kind of technology on them thats allowing for shielding against plasma blasts. Denethor: Hmmm alright then. Bring out the Phase Blasters. Lets see how they do against a Phase Transition type weapon. *the phase blasters rise from withing the forearms of the Shadow Sun and he fires off a few shots destroying the last of the five suits he targeted* Denethor: Right now locate Rob and mark him as a friendly on the radar. I don't want to start shooting at him by accidently. SS: As you wish. Note there are currently 5 more suits converging on our position. Denethor: Right launch the Shadow Funnels. They'll take care of them. *the Shadow Funnels launch and engage the 5 IE suits* DeathscytheX - 05 Mar 2003 11:30 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Dark Fury systems activate The X radiates blue once again as it had in the 1st encounter, the NV-MAD7R transforms also. Hatsuma: We shall finish this now! Rob: You shall parish by my hands. The X and the NV-MAD7R duel it out dodging and blocking and firing, there massive assults start taking out random suits around the battle causing them all to stop and watch the fight. The NV-MAD7R fired all its mircromissiles at the X at once, they exploded on the X but the hypersheild protected Rob from any damage. Rob fired swarmers but they were all avoided by the NV-MAD7R Lock jammers. The NV-MAD7R boosted toward the X and slashed, Rob dodged but not fast enough and the arm was hit with the beam saber frying some circuts. Hatsuma: Now you see who the better pilot is? Rob: fool. you rely too much on your enhancements to beat me.. you are nothing... My systems allow to me pilot the way I where normal limits do not apply in exchange for brainwave input.. which could damage my nervous system.. its an unfinished project of mine you see.. but if you want to match my technology to yours.. then see if you can handle this.. The X brusts pass the NV-MAD7R, Hatsuma turns around the fires his particle cannon at the X, and it goes straight through the torso. Hatsuma's smile faded quickly as the X faded into thin air. He turns around only to see the X jam a plasma rod into the NV-MAD7R's torso.. Hatsuma: projected imagry... thats illegal.. Rob: hmph.. who said I follow the laws of the IE? The X spins around with the NV-MAD7R on its plasma rod and yanks it out throwing it into the Liberators haul. the UPC charges up as the Hatsuma was helpless to defend. Rob: Victory is mine. The X fires the UPC hiting the NV-MAD7R dead on and peircing a hole in the liberators already damanged haul. Rob: I never leave business unfinished for too long.. ha.. the X joins back into the normal battle with Rob feeling satisfied. ===================== The Core of the NV-MAD7R sits inside the ship, a wreacker pulls it into a section that has live support. they open it and Hatsuma is badly injured, 65% of his body is badly burnt.. Officer: Commander Hatsuma are you ok?! please say something! Hatsuma: aaagghh.. fools, get me some medical attention.. Hatsuma is brought to the Medical station and is treated then is shipped off in a Medical Pod to the Raumhafisch's superior medical warden.

SS: Um Denethor we currently have 10 IE suits swarming us and the Shadow funnels are busy right now. I suggest collecting your thoughts and focusing on the battle. Denethor: Oh right I suppose I should. Alright extend the beam rail guns and pull out the VSBR's. I think its time to go into my insane rage. *the SS pulls out the VSBR's along with extending the Beam rail guns. While the SS was doing this Denethor went into a completely psychotic rage. When the SS had these out Denethor in his rage started firing left and right at rapid speed. All that could be seen were explosions and beam fire from where the SS was. Also the Shadow Funnels went into a rage (due to Denethor's psychic connection to them) destroying everthing they could lock onto and fire at.* Azrael - 06 Mar 2003 11:24 am Post subject: OOC: Eh?

I kinda got lost for a minute. Guess I've just had a lot on my mind lately. Anyway I remember the path now, so if something goes horribly wrong let me know and I'll help.

They see the Dreadnaught. What the!! Hurry up and load that hypershield module that was sent from the Raumhaifisch because it couldn't cover enough space!! The guards pick up a large box vaguely resembling an engine, mount in on rails, and slide it into the core of the Liberator. They then slide several energy cylinders on it. A display reads: Boot up time eta: 45 minutes. Commander: That's good. Now lets make hast and get to the bridge! They run up to the bridge, where as posted earlier, they meet their fate. --------Current--------- Hatsuma: :: deep inhale :: Save the ammo.. we've heard official reports of what they've done to other cruisers. The railguns and blasts will just bounce off anyways. We will forfeit, and hyper out of here. Suddenly, a hypershield envelopes the Liberator. Hatsuma: So!! We won't come to a stalemate after all!! Thrust within close proximity of the Dreadnaught!! The Liberator heaves and quickly moves towards the Dreadnaught, where the two hypershields collide. Hatsuma: Push the afterburners harder!! Electricity explodes from the contact point, and suddenly the two hypershields merge. Hatsuma: OPEN FIRE!!!

Rob:.... Time-Dimensional warp technology.. they can jump from anywhere in space... I thought it was an unproven technology.. it looks like the IE has perfected it... Denethor: So they can move there ships from anywhere to anywhere in the unverse now? Rob: I dont know.. but I dont doubt they will have that capability soon after they put it on all there ships.. *slams fist down* damn!... all units dock with Dreadnaught.... I will report to Fei.

Commander: Then how is it that nobody here's ever heard of it? Mukuro: Well, you never asked and we haven't needed it since the revolution. I'm honestly a little surprised that the IE took this long to figure it out once they knew it could be done. Strider Hiryu - 07 Mar 2003 08:40 am Post subject: *After redocking Denethor walks off to find Spike* Denethor: Spike I need you to do something. Spike: Yea what is it. Denethor: Get ahold of our spy in the IE. I want to know everything on this new time-dimensional warp technology. I want to see if it can be equipped to suits at all for it would make it easier on us to get around. Spike: Right. Well all that data that Rob gave us was uploaded into the Stalker's computer. There is some info on the whereabouts of Alton but not much. Denethor: Thats alright. Just get that info if possible. I'm off to go tweak the psychoframe since while I was in a rage it was off by .03 % which if I really went into one of the rages that almost get me killed would of gotten me killed. Plus I think I need to buff out the armor. Spike: Alright. I'll get back to you as soon as I've heard anything on this. *Denethor walks back to the SS and starts to repair and tweak it* Vyper - 07 Mar 2003 07:31 pm Post subject: Hiroko had hurtled through space not being able to hear anything. There was no sound insulation, and the boosters were extremely loud. All of a sudden, he stopped moving. He heard the cargo pod door open. He then could barely hear voices, as his hearing had turned horrible after the thrusters. He found his box being lifted, and carried around. Several minutes later the top was opened, and he saw blinding lights, and he was surrounded by doctors everywhere, and two of what seemed to be computer scientists. Several guards threw him on a bed, and he was tightly buckled down. Doctor, sneering: Welcome to the Raumhaifisch, Hiroko. The doctors inserted thin metal probes that were able to move like a snake. A computer scientist controlled them, as they slid through his ears. Hiroko couldn't hear anything. A moment later, he blacked out. An IE Lieutenant stepped in. Lieutenant: So this is neurology? Scientist: Yes. Lieutenant: How long has stuff like this been around? Scientist: Ever since we created the NV-MAD7, so about ten years. Lieutenant: Wow, real- Computer Scientist: All brainwaves and datafiles have been archived. Proceed in definitions? Scientist: Yes. Lieutenant: Anyways, how doe this work. Scientist: Some fourteen years ago, that scientist over there :: points :: realized that brains operate much like computers; different neurons have on and off positions and those combine to form thoughts. Lieutenant: Yes, and what does this do? Scientist: Those small rods are able to reverse already set neurons' on or off positions with lasers and small ions. It's like programming a computer. Lieutenant: So how do you know what you're messing with in different sectors of the brain? Scientist: That takes several supercomputers to all work in tasks. Those would all be in the next room. They diagnose what everything does. We could have the brain try to breathe through one's ears if we wanted to. Lieutenant: So what are you trying to achieve on Hiroko? Scientist: Well, you see, the brain stores memories of different people in archives of it's own, and for memories, creates aliases to these archives. We are switching who these aliases into.. Lieutenant: THAT'S GENIUS!!! Scientist: Well of course.. we wouldn't be dumping millions into this if it wasn't. Lieutenant: So how secret is this? Scientist: The only reason the IE tried to hunt down the NV-MAD7 was because it was this same technology flying all around. And now that you know of all this, you're next in line.. Lieutenant: WHAT!?!?! Guards subdue the lieutenant and throw him in a small holding room. Computer Scientist: All memory archives defined. Lieutenant: Great. Here are your instructions. In his memory of his mother being stolen, swap the slave traders with Volarians. Make it so Rob Opsolous was the one who killed his father instead of Hatsuma. Have it that Mukuro and his guild were the blitz, and delete all Polarians except for his mother. In addition, install the intuition capacity copied from several geniuses and install it on the unused hemisphere of his brain. Finally, program him so he's grown up with the IE for all his life and Hatsuma is his brother. We will make Hatsuma think Hiroko's his brother as well later, and they will no longer be rivals. Oh one more thing - increase his emotional sensitivity so that he may reach the NV-MAD7's 'perfect' status. ---Six Hours Later--- Commander Mishka: Wake up, Hiroko. We need to introduce you to your new partner. Hiroko: Huh.. what? A new partner, eh? Mishka: Yes. You will be teamed up with an excellent sniper named Lev. DeathscytheX - 08 Mar 2003 12:35 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Well its been fun. This is a wonderful ship.. I'll keep in contact incase I need backup. I have to go talk to an old friend. Keep up the good work men. Captian: Yes Sir.. Rob leaves in the X and heads to Mars, He arrives within hours. Putting on his trench coat he heads off into town.. the town he was born in so many years ago. So much has changed since then. Mars was alot more developed.. the sky wasnt red anymore, it was more blue, but not as blue as earths, it still had traces of red which gave it a slight tent of purple. Man: hey man you got some credits? Rob: No.. sorry.. Man: I think you do.. I think you are gonna hand them over. Rob kept walking ignoring the man.. the man charged rob and swung, Rob grab the guys arm and broke it while elbowing him in the face, Rob kicks him in the stomach and then in the face while he bent over from impact.... Rob then walked off.. He found an old mechanic shop with a familar logo. Rob: Bingo.. Rob walks in the door to see an old man polishing down some pipes. Rob: Hey old timer.. sell any polarian coffee.. Gordon: Rob? Rob! hey! your still alive! hahaaa! Rob: Yeah well.. the IE cant kill me that easily. Gordon: so how is the X holding up Rob: ah its gotten alot better.. I have added a few of my own upgrades. Gordon: Ah i miss the old Starblade.. Sorry we arent a team anymore.. Rob: naah.. dont worry about it.. Its gotten to dangerous for you to help me anymore. Rob and Gordon talk for hours. Rob stays the night and tells gordon of his recent adventures. the Next day Rob left mars off into space... He wonders what happend to Hiroko. He locates the Zanzabar on the navcom, but it wasnt moving from the spot he left it in.. Rob: thats odd... The X heads toward the Zanzabar to see what was up... Vyper - 08 Mar 2003 12:09 pm Post subject: Hiroko walks into a meeting room and leans on the wall. Various commanders begin whispering to each other, and then casually continue. Commander 1: So we're attacking Volaria? Commander 2: Yes; we've identified that the controllers of the Dreadnaught are Volarians. Volaria is highly supportive of separitists, and we will cut off one of the life lines. Strider Hiryu - 08 Mar 2003 08:30 pm Post subject: *Spike walks into the Cafeteria on the Stalker to find Denethor sitting in there* Spike: Well now fancy seeing you in here for once. Denethor: Yeah well I needed a place to think. You find out anything on that new technology yet. Spike: No. It seems our spy was killed in battle a few days ago. Looks like we're gonna have to infiltrate the IE again. Denethor: Yeah I suppose but its gonna be harder without having Geddoe with us. Spike: Oh on that note. I finally found out what happened to Geddoe. Hes sitting on an IE prison ship right now. He was caught embeseling weapons for some rebels and was arrested. Shall we go break him out? Denethor: I suppose we could. Where is this ship at now? Spike: Its currently orbiting Callisto (a moon of Jupiter). Its unloading some personel and uploading some others along with Geddoe. They will be leaving there in about two days. Denethor: Good. We'll go get him then. Do you still have his old suit onboard? Spike: Yea. Why do you ask? Denethor: Cause this is gonna be a two person job. I'll explain more when we get there. Lets get going. We're gonna need all the help we can once the IE starts making its final moves plus I want more info on this new tech. Spike: Alright. I'll set course for Callisto right away. ---Two Hours Later--- Spike: We're here. So whats the plan? Denethor: We're gonna make a big entrance. We're going on an all out attack on them. We'll locate Geddoe first though so we don't kill him. We're really gonna have to be quick though seeing as how the IE owns this moon. Spike: Right. When will we go through with the mission. Denethor: In about 7 hours. I still need to repair my suit plus I need to revamp the Shadow Cloak for this. Spike: Right. Vyper - 08 Mar 2003 09:01 pm Post subject: Hiroko was dispatched with some 300 suits to form a blockade around Volaria. He was positioned in the spot they were most likely going to escape. Balklava, Commander of Raumhaifisch: Hiroko, this is the lead commander Balklava. We will begin nuking the 18 most populated cities in thirty minutes. Begin preparations. DeathscytheX - 08 Mar 2003 11:42 pm Post subject: IC: Fei: Rob.. the IE is planing an attack on our home planet.. I need your assistance.. I have hailed the Dreadnaught to back us up.. please hurry at once.. Rob: Im on my way.. Rob forgets the zanazbar and messages Denethor and Muruko asking for there assistance.. hoping to see them in the battle zone. Rob: computer.. full speed.. Volarian VI. Vyper - 08 Mar 2003 11:51 pm Post subject: Balklava: Hiroko! They know of their attack! Incoming escape shuttles!! Hiroko: I'm on it. Soon, six shuttles break through the atmosphere. Hiroko hits two with his mega particle beam cannon, and his funnels chase down three more. He thrusts up to the last one, and drags his beam sabre straight down the hull of it. Then, Hiroko breaks into a dream. He blurrily sees the escape vessels from Polaris Prime get blown to hell, but doesn't know of what relevance it is. He wakes up, and hears, '..X is approaching!! -You fool! Hiroko's com is still on!' DeathscytheX - 08 Mar 2003 11:59 pm Post subject: IC: 50 IE suits explode as they are hit with 3/4s of the X's swarmers, seismic mines start drifting everywhere as IE suits helplessly run into them, flickers of light can be seen as suit after suit is destroyed by plasma rods. Rob thinks to himself he has to keep his speed up to prevent the Raumhaifich from being able to target him.. The Dreadnaught decloaks as suits pour out of its bays. The 2 ships do not attack each other for it is useless to try to attack a hypersheild. Rob: good. they are here. The X fires the UPC destorying 6 IE suits. Strider Hiryu - 08 Mar 2003 11:59 pm Post subject: Denethor: Spike I just got a message from Rob. I need you to carry on with the mission and save Geddoe. I'm off to assist Rob in his fight. I'll be back as soon as possible. Spike: Right. I'll do my best. *Denethor jumps into the cockpit of the Shadow Sun* Denethor: SS set course for Volarian VI now. Rob needs our help. SS: Right away Denethor. I hope you know you didn't finish the repairs. Denethor: Yes I know. Just launch already. *the SS launches and heads off toward Volarian VI* Vyper - 09 Mar 2003 01:27 am Post subject: Hiroko coudn't help but notice Rob after all of the suits exploding. Rob: Hiroko?? Did you escape? Hiroko: ... Rob: Hello? Talk to me!! Hiroko: You bastard - you killed my father and now you want me to talk to you like we're friends or something? Rob: That was Hatsuma! Hiroko begins thrusting at an aggressive pace towards Rob. Hiroko: What kind of fool lies that your brother killed your father even though you saw him do it with your very eyes. Rob: What.. you backstabbing moron! Die!! Hiroko slings out his beam katar at the last second (new improvement) and just before it lopped off the X's head, but it was quickly stopped by the strong, bulky arm of the X. Rob clenched the other arm, but was quickly countered by being pelted by the head vulcans and was kneed in the chest, violantly throwing Rob to a side in the cockpit. Hiroko used the temporary cease in control to his advantage, and twisted the X's left arm with both hands, and whipped it so that the X's back was being held to the Hotaru 2. Hiroko began pelting Rob with the head vulcans once again, and when Rob tried to break out of the hold, he failed, and panicked, but quickly came up with a solution. Rob fired the afterburner backpack at full blast. Instantaneously Hiroko's cockpit temperature became searing hot. The metal components burned.The monitors became staticy and the neuro-sync level significantly dropped. Hiroko reactivated his katars and his right arm neared the cockpit of the X. However, the two suits began moving with Rob's thrust, and they careened in a spiral towards the Raumhaifisch. They collided with the hypershield and began skidding on it, sparks flying and metal being stripped from the contact points. Rob began pelting Hiroko with his vulcans and Hiroko shot out his gun pods (funnels), half of which shot straight into the hypershield and exploded, the other three chased Rob and pelted him. One of the gun pods hit a weak point in the X's thruster pack, and it began to ignite. At the same time they reached the point in the hypershield where it curved under them, and they shot some four miles through space, outside of the Raumhaifisch and Dreadnaught's support range. For the entire duration of which, they tried breaking apart, but their limbs were caught, and they slammed through a space station, sucking all of its inhabitants out. They became stuck to the wall from the constantly firing thruster, which exploded shortly after. It severely damaged both of them. Rob recovered faster and used the time advantage to draw his plasma rods. However, Hiroko's beam katars drew considerably faster, and he was still slightly ahead of Rob. Hiroko: Enable Anti-Matter field. The beams began fluctuating colors, and Rob rushed in and slashed with his plasma rods. Hiroko blocked with his katars, and masses of thick energy bolts jumped out from where they collided. Rob: WHAT!?! Nothing can stop the plasma rods!! Hiroko sneered and kicked the plasma rod out of the X's hand, sending it flying upwards, and one quick sweep of his Katar sliced the handle in half. The plasma rod exploded, flinging plasma all over both of the suits. The spots the plasma hit them melted, and cooled as the metal welded into it. Hiroko hurled one of the katars at the X's head, but was stopped by Rob's hypershield. Rob counterattacked with his plasma rod, and sliced off the Hotaru 2's left leg. Hiroko became suprised, but since Rob stuck the arm far out there, Hiroko jammed his beam katar in the elbow joint, cutting off the X's left forearm. Hiroko didn't notice while he did this, however, that Rob deployed his payload of mines and bombs. They detonated, which threw each other into the opposite sides of the walls. Hiroko was thrown into a super heavy door, and Rob broke through several walls and was thrown back out into space. Both had alarms sounding, with droning alarms and red beacons going off in their cockpits alerting of the Critical Armor Level. Hiroko/Rob: One more hit and I'm screwed.. Hiroko wiped his forehead and noticed that he was bleeding intensely from his forehead. Rob's arm had been cut open. Rob prepared his Ultra Plasma Cannon. Hiroko pushed off the door into the ground. The Hotaru 2's hand touched the ground into a ready position. Rob fired the UPC at Hiroko. Hiroko soared to the side in a side-strafe boost and thrusted out the opening that was torn open when they entered. DeathscytheX - 09 Mar 2003 02:06 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Dammit! Out of ammo rob reaimed the UPC for a final shot, but the computer short circuited and could not fire again. Hiroko charged up his Particel cannon. Rob started to boost off but a massive laser chaffed the thruster on the X, rob was left with no defense.. Rob: hypershield.. hypershield dammit! Computer:.....sOR..ry... Po-er.. leva.. at.. 2...percen.................... Rob: rob types in some commands and the power goes completely out Denethor and Mukuro arrived in time to see Hiroko fire his patricle cannon at the X.. the X exploded violently taking out IE suits nearest to it.. the Hotaru-2's power dies out completely and drifts into space.. The inntial shock gives the IE the upperhand as they start to slaughter the Volarian pilots who cannot believe what they just had witnessed. =====Raumhaifisch===== Science Officer: bring the NV-MAD7 back in.. we cannot lose the pilot. The Raumhaifisch tractor beam pulls in Hiroko, who smerks in satisfaction.. he killed the man he believed killed his father.. when he gets back on board he is treated for his wounds.. Hatsuma comes to check on him and they embrace. Hatsuma: thanks to you.. victory is now ours.. the sepratists lost there hero.. they have little to look up to.. ====else where==== I mysterous pod jets in no set direction into space undetected (and i do mean undetected). Rob sits in it barely conscience, bloody and brusied. Rob: you bastard.... I'll get you... i will ge... *passes out* the computer's console pops up while rob is out, and locates the nearest planet that shows large amounts of life and decent technology. It came up with a planet that was isolated from everyone, even the news.. it was the renewed Polaris I. after the Polaris Prime incident the polarians decided to be isolated from the rest of the universe to stay out of trouble since everyone knew that Polaris I was uninhabitable. they kept it a secret as many of the remaining polarians migrated there. Altho only being renewed for a few months many towns were able to be built. The Pod enters the atmostphere and lands on the ground 50 miles outside the nearest settlement. Rob laid in his the escape pod.. passed out cold. Azrael - 09 Mar 2003 11:36 pm Post subject: Mukuro watched in amazement as the greatest symbol of seperatist hope exploded. Enraged and terrified, he shot toward the NV-MAD7 drifting in space, but before he could reach it the Raumhaifisch had pulled it in. Mukuro: God damn you! It doesn't matter where you hide, you will NOT escape me! He fired madly at the Raumhaifisch, but the hypershield deflected everything. Slowly his anger was replaced by a cold hatred. He regained his senses and stopped firing. Mukuro: You will not escape me. OOC: Ok, name change. I'm tired of Karasu and Akutenshi is plural, so...Tenshi. IC: After making this promise to Hiroko (and himself), Mukuro turned back to the battle and saw that the Volarian suits were quickly disappearing. When he reached it, he quickly exhausted the rest of his ammunition and turned to melee combat. DeathscytheX - 10 Mar 2003 01:06 am Post subject: OCC: sorry this is so long but because we had had some inactivity, I dont like to wait to put my parts in when i get new ideas so i jammed alot of it in one. IC: Rob opened his eyes, he was laying on a bed, bandaged.. with an IV in his arm.. 'how is he?' a familar voice says. 'he should be fine, he needs rest, he is dehydrated' another unknown voice says. Rob fades back into sleep. A few hours later he wakes up to see a beautiful girl putting a wet cloth on his forhead. Rob: Auriana? Auriana: *smiles* hello Rob.. looks like you got yourself into some trouble.. we found you outside the city in what seemed to be some sort of excape pod. we had a hard time getting you out, an eletric field was protecting you, It was a while before the battery ran down and we were able to get you out. Rob: how long... have i been out.. Auriana: about 10 hours from when we saw you. Rob: *sighs* I cant believe this... Auriana: what happend to the X? where is it? Rob: gone.... that was pilot rescue saftey mechanism.. Auriana: So the IE found a way to destroy it.. Rob: quite unconventionally.. Auriana: so have you heard from Hiroko? Rob:........ Auriana: Rob? are you ok? Rob: he is the one who destoryed my suit Auriana:... but you said.. Rob: I know what i said! *angerly* He blew my ass up! Auriana: Hiroko.. *tears up* why?.. there must be some mistake.. Rob it had to be that other suit. that other guy.. Rob: No. i defeated him shortly before this happend, It was hiroko.. he blamed me for the death of his father and just attacked me out no where.. Auriana: *sobs* NO!! I wont believe it! Rob: Dammit! Im not making this up! Auriana falls and crys. Rob feels bad for yelling, he was quite aggrivated at recent events. Rob gets up in pain, and conforts Auriana. Rob: Im sorry.. I didnt mean to yell.. right now im just as shocked as you are.. I dont no whats going on.. right now im sure the IE is celebrating of my death and the sepratists are wondering wtf is going on. Any way i can check out the news? Auriana: no.. Auriana explains to Rob about isolating themselfs from the universe and how this planet was remade. Rob told Auriana everything that happend after Polaris Prime. As they walk infront of a lake on her palace estate Rob: you need forces to protect your planet.. Hiroko is with the IE now.. he knows about this planet.. he may blab.. Auriana: I didnt think of that.. damn.. we can never live in peace... thats all I want. Our people or originally a peaceful race.. why cant there be peace.. Rob: I will protect your people... I will if I have to do it all by myself.. Hiroko will pay for what he has done... if its the last thing I do.. I shall strike terror into the hearts of the IE unlike anything I have done before A tear runs down Aurianas eye Rob wipes it away, Auriana looks Rob in the eye as they begin to kiss. Auriana quickly pulls away as her memorly flashes 'But.. I love him!'... Auriana: no... we cant.. i cant do that Rob.. Rob: *plops down on a bench* hmm.. Im sorry.. I forgot you are polarian and not an emotion frenzy hormonal crazy human *chuckles softly* Auriana's memory flashes back again to what her uncle said 'Crazy Girl.. hes human..!' her memory flashes back to when she was a child. ===Auriana's Memory=== Father: The human race is not to be trusted young daughter. you must stay away from them. Auriana: but why daddy? Father: Humans are strange beings.. there hunger for power stops at nothing.. they posses great wisdom, and deadly learning ability. They are cunning, and cannot be trusted. they turn on there very own kind.. there history show how they infest into society and dominate and control. everywhere they go they have become the people in charge.. they are very dangerous. ================== Auriana: *sits down next to Rob and leans up against him* Rob? Rob: yes? Auriana: Your not like Other humans.. and its not just your eyes.. you fight against its hunger for power.. the IE.. why? Rob: My Father was a good man.. he raised me correctly.. he taught me about the coruption.. the only reason he was in the IE was to support me, to make sure I had food to eat. Even if he wasnt killed by the IE i wouldnt be for the Federation. I wish the universe could just live peacfully as it once had before humans found out how to leave earth thounsands of years ago. Auriana: and your eyes? Rob: I was born blind and deaf.. Polarian Scientist implanted mechanical devices into my eyes and ears to help me have a normal life.. they also put probes in my brain to give me short ablities to talk telepathically.. they dont work very well tho. I tweeked my eyes and ears to be superior than normal human abilities.. Auriana: I hope you dont mind. I had them put brown contact lenses in your eyes to make them look normal.. you can take them out if you want to.. Rob: Do u like my eyes this way? Auriana: *blushes*.. I.. I just thought since maybe the IE though you were dead ud want to conseal some of your trademark appearance discrptions.. Rob smerked.. she didnt know that until after he told her.. Auriana lays her head on Robs shoulder as the Sun sets. Rob: Auriana.. do u ever planned on getting married.. Auriana: maybe oneday? why? Rob: to whom? Auriana:.. um.. ..... I... Rob: heh.. yeah I know u have a thing for Hiroko.. im really sorry i shouldnt have brung it up. Auriana:. no its ok.. how about you? Rob: Me? haha. naaah.... I dont have time for that. my life is about 3 things.. fighting.. fighting.. and more fighting.. Auriana: oh... Rob: I need a ship *changing the subject* Auriana: where are you going? Rob: I cant tell you that Auriana Auriana: why not? Rob: I cant tell you that either.. im sorry.. its nothing personal.. Auriana: you can use my Royal cursier.. its a Federation ship.. you can get through any jumpgate, and the IE would leave it alone. Rob: thanks *holds his shoulder in Pain*.. dang i really got jared around in the X.. Auriana grabs his shoulder and masages it for a bit.. Auriana: Rob.. have u ever been in love? Rob: Yes... she died in battle a long time ago.. Auriana: im sorry.. anyone after that? Rob: I need to rest my body.. im beaten up Rob gets up and beings to walk back to his quaters. Auriana: Rob.... Rob turns around Auriana walks up to him and stops.. her dress falls to the ground, Rob is blown away at what just happend. Rob: Auriana.. what the he.. Auriana puts her finger on Robs mouth and tells him to be quite.. The Polarians were forbidden to be with someone before conpanionship.. espeically if they had already deticated thereself to someone else.. Even Rob knew this code, and If anyone found out, Auriana could face banishment form Polaris... but Who was Rob to resist a beautful girl tho . =====The Next Morning===== Engineer: Rob the ship is Ready. Rob: *groggly sipping Polarian Coffee* yeah, thanks bud.. I gotta head out. Engineer: is that lipstick sir? Rob: *wiping it off quicly*.. no.. um.. i bit my mouth in my sleep.. blood everywhere.. really nasty.. hurts bad.. sucks man... Auriana: Rob. please becareful.... Rob: hmm.. U know me.. careful is not my style.. Auriana: Rob.. Rob: yes? Auriana: Please.. find away to talk sense into Hiroko.. dont hurt him.. Rob: *sighs and looks slighly down and away with a disturbed look in his faces while the picture of the Hotaru-2 firing its deathblow plays in his head* Auriana: Please... for me? Rob:.. I will try, but I dont promise you I wont hurt him.. im sorry i cant. Auriana: I hope you wont.. Rob walks onto the Ship and she watches as the ship takes off out of the atmosphere.... Rob: heh.. thats what you get bastard.. you blow my mech up. i get your girl.. *laughs loudly, hurting his shoulder* ouch.. heh.. well maybe i didnt get her but I did get something *evil smerk* Rob sets a corse for the Phyrah galaxy.. Home base of the IE, and Federations Counsil of power after easily checking into a jump gate. cyberlink - 10 Mar 2003 09:13 am Post subject: OOC: OMG!!! i can believe how much has been added since iwas away. well it was 2 weeks. Sorry, was on a little trip to the states. bk now. took 1.5 hours to catch up! OC: Sukanimi: Rei, its been two weeks now and we still havent found anyway out of here. and another thing. During lastnight i swear that i saw someone. watching us form afar... Rei: well we have looked all overthis complex all appart form that docking bay DX6, its been locked from the inside. we need to get in there somehow. i sware that there is a way out in there. Sukanimi: Rei, im hungary..... Rei: well all we have left is the beef and leek pots on the emergancy rations. i suppose that they will have to do. Rei and Sukanimi ate the last of the rations and fell asleep. During the night sukanimi woke again to the sound of scuffling that she had heard so many times before. Sukanimi: (whispering) Rei, rei..... wake up. can you hear that, rei wake up!! Rei: whaa......um, sukanimi, its 2 im the morning, go to sleep. Sukanimi; rei, that noise, its back, someone is in here with us just as i said. Rei: what... go back to sleep for god sake! Suddenly there was a loud noise, whoever or whatever it was had tripped over. Rei: okay.. now im spooked. Rei stood up and began to move towards where the noise came from. as he approached he could hear footsteps running down the hall. Rei drew his Impulse laser and peeked round the corner, Sukanimi; can you see him?? Rei: what makes you say that its a him, and even say that its human?? Sukanimi: As i told you i see them at night, i hear them talking about a new suit, some sort of new design.... Rei: did you catch their organisation? Sukanimi: no i didnt, but i bet that they are with the IE somehow.... A noise behind rei made him jump. The noise seemed to split in two and it came from both sides of the room now. Rei: I think that they know the we know they are here. Sukanimi: Rei, to your left there!! Rei turned around and fired, he missed and the shadow shape disapeared, Again they were left in a silent room all alone, or so it seemed. Rei: i dont like this at all. lets move. Sukanimi: but where to? we have looked all over and there is no way out.. Rei: look if there is others down herre with us then there must be some way to get in and out of here. And i bet ther the answer lies in Dock DX6. Sukanimi follows Rei to the doors of DX6. The huge doors are sealed shut and there is no visiable controll pannel to operate them. Rei: sukanimi, take a look around there ha to be some sort of operation mechanisim somewhere. Sukanimi: i this it rei?? Rei: no thats the thermostat. Sukanimi: what about this?? Rei: no thats the intercom. Sukanimi: HAY! im only trying to help okay. what about this? Rei: what about what? i can see anything.. Sukanimi: this!! right here behind te unlocked pannel. Rei: THATS IT SUKANIMI!! YOPU FOUND IT! rei pushed a button on the control pannel and the doors of Dock DX6 opened, They were greeted not by the dark digdgey mess of the facility that they were used to. But a fully operational Dock. lights working machineary busy, the works!! Sukanimi: see i told you that there was somewone else down here. Rei: sukanimi, can you see that, to the far side.... over there. Sukanimi: yeah, but whats the Austoria doing way down here? Rei: i have no idea but i bet that it has something to do with that attack two weeks ago. IE force guards: HALT! INTRUDERS! Rei: now were for it! Rei and sukanimi began to turn to run but was interupted by 4 guards standing behind them. Sukanimi: uhh..... Hi..... IE GUARD: INTERUERS! YOU ARE UNDER ARREST. Rei: over my dead body!! take that! Rei took a swipe at the guard, he hit the guard but it hurt him more that the guard/ Rei: OW!!!!!!!!!!! IE GUARD: FOOL, INCOLENCE WILL NOT BE TOLLERATED! the guard knocked rei unconcious, and dragged him away. Sukanimi: REI! what have you done! where are you taing him! TAKE YOURT HANDS OFF ME!!! REI!!!! Sukanimi was taken to a holding cell and locked up in darkness, rei on the other hand was taken to a lab where he was tied and connected to a strange device. Doctor, thats it bring him round, getlally. we dont want our liberator being hurt. Rei: wha..... WHAT! LIBERATOR! I WILL NEVER BE A LIBERATOR FOR THE IE! Doctor: on the controary MR Dukan, i thin that by the end of this little session you will willingley be fighting for us! Rei: NEVER! WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON ZION??? Doctor: you will find out all in due time. all in due time..... Strider Hiryu - 10 Mar 2003 09:28 am Post subject: ---One day and 10 hours earlier--- Denethor: NO!!!!!!!! God damnit. Why did you have to go and do that Rob. Whoever you are note that I will kill you for what you have done to Rob. *Denethor flips into an uncontrollable rage destroying half of the IE suits surrounding him then after that he blacks out* ---10 hours later--- *Denethor awakes on the med deck of the Stalker* Denethor: Why am I back on the Stalker? Geddoe: Because me and Spike found you unconcious in the SS around what was left of Volarian VI after the IE attacked. We picked you up and tried to repair your suit. Denethor: Geddoe. How are you here? Spike actually accomplished the mission? Geddoe: Yea. It wasn't the prettiest or cleanest of escapes but he did it alright. My suits in about three pieces thought after that little skirmish. Denethor: Oh well that can be fixed. One question was there any debris left from a unique type of suit out in the field or and escape pod? Geddoe: Not by what we saw. All there was was pieces of IE suits and Volarian suits all over. Denethor: Damnit then that means Rob is dead. Alright then. Did Spike tell you the plan before you picked me up. Geddoe: Yea on the fact that we were going to infiltrate the R & D division of the IE and steal that Time-Dimensional warp technology. Denethor: Yea plus we're gonna pay our good friend Alton a visit. Geddoe: Alright. I'll go tell Spike that we're heading for the Phyrah galaxy and the planet that its situated on. You stay here and get some rest. ---The next day--- IE soldier: Hey you there. Why are you in a restricted section? Denethor: Oh sorry I'm a new recruit and lost my way. IE soldier: Thats no excuse. Now head back the way you came. Denethor: I'm sorry but I can't do that. I need to speak to the head tech person and if you won't back out of the way I'll have to kill you. IE soldier: Just try it then. *starts firing off his machine gun* Denethor: I warned you. *Denethor dodges the shots, pulls out his Katana and slices the throat of the soldier* Geddoe: I thought you said we were gonna make a clean entrance. Denethor: Well I lied. Remember we're here for the technology and nothing else. Spike is trying to figure out where we'll find Alton. So lets go. Geddoe: Alright. *they start entering codes into the door panel* Denethor: Damn its been changed since the last time I was here. Alright give me the code breaker. *Geddoe hands Denethor the code breaker* Denethor: This will take awhile so keep watch. Geddoe: Right. *Denethor sets the code breaker up and waits while it tries to break the door code* OOC: I'll add more to this later but I have to head off to school now so I don't have time to put everything I wanted to into this post. Azrael - 10 Mar 2003 12:19 pm Post subject: OOC: Didn't get to finish my last post, so...yeah. IC: Mukuro woke up in a plain white room. His clothing was the same, including the dagger in his arm sheath and the spines in his belt. He walked out into the hall and tried to remember where he was. The only other person there was a Volarian that he recognized from Dreadnought. Mukuro: Where...where is this? Person: Hmm. You really don't remember anything, do you? Mukuro: I remember Hiroko...Rob... Person: This is Volaria. If not for you and that other pilot, we wouldn't be here. Mukuro: What happened? Person: ...Well, we're not quite sure either. They're still studying your mech trying to figure it out. Mukuro: Interesting...God I'm tired. I think I need to rest a while longer. He went back to the room and laid back down. This close to sleep, his mind could run where it would not at other times. Without warning, his memory snapped back. EDIT: Like Strider, I'll finish this later. DeathscytheX - 10 Mar 2003 02:39 pm Post subject: OOC: now u get active IC: ======Memory Flash====== Jim Opsulous: Its finally completed.. Rob: Its amazing Dad.. when are you gonna pilot it? Jim: I dont think I ever will.. I dont even know why I finished this, It cant be used, its too powerful.. the IE is too bloodthristy.. i figured that out when they couldnt wait long enough for me to finish this... I guess i finished it to prove to the IE that I could.. it was more of a self satisfaction thing. Rob: But if you use it.. Jim: NO!... no... I will not carry out any massicares with this... I have set the cockpit to your bioreadings so no one can use it, I trust you never to use this when u get older Son.. not even the prototype you are a fast learning pilot.. I put it on ur readings so the IE would never beable to use it unless they went through the trouble of ripping out the cockpit and trying to put a new one in.. it will take them years to figure it out if they even could. Rob: So what if they want it now? Jim: they wont know its here.. you are never to tell a soul about this... never. If u used this and the IE got it from you some how.. it would be the end of the free universe.. =========================== Alarm Ships AI: Phyrah Reached Rob: its time. Rob sitting in the corner of the room with an emotionaless stare into no real direction slowly gets up and puts on his trench coat. He straps on some weaponry that he picked up from an antique armory, since ancient models wont be picked up on weapon detectors. The Crusier lands on Diras II (Die-Ras). The Diras system contains 3 planets... the Federations main facilities reside here. Diras I is where the Counsil Of Power has its govermental meetings, Diras II is the STR (Science, Technology, and Research) of the IE, and Diras III is IE HQ. Rob walks up to A Big Public Buliding that stored much information to the Public about the latest in Researched Tenology. Rob: hmm... I hope its still here.. at least the building is even tho its no longer the IE main repair facility Rob walks in and stands in the middle of the lobby as a dark shady figure as the sun is in a position not getting on that part of the room.. Desk person: Sir.. we are closed right now, we dont open until another 2 hours. Rob: heh... Desk person: I have to ask u to leave sir.. The clank sound of a grenade hits the ground and bounces slighting. at that time Rob kicked it, at the very second it hit the desk person in the forhead it blew up while Rob got behind a column. Flames ingulfed the room, Rob watched as flames flew on both sides of him and saw the glass blow out of the doors and windows. He pulled out 2 Colt Magnum pistols as Guards filled the room to check on the happenings. Rob took 3 men out on the 2nd floor, 2 of them fell over the railing as one fell back from being shot in the head. Rob dives behind another column avoiding automatic fire and takes out 2 more guards in the path he wanted to go. He rushed and kicked in the door, throwings another grenade one his way and rolled down the steps as It exploded. after hitting the wall he shot a personel member in the eye before he could react. He didnt have much time after making such a comotion.. the IE was bound to be swarming the place any minute. He ran down some more steps and walked to the very left side of the room. an old safe was there. He jarred it open but it was full of usless papers.. Rob: *smacks forhead* oh yeah.. duh.. Rob takes a crowbar and wacks the combination knob off the safe he picks it up and finds a security card inside of it.. after taking the card out, he reattaches the knob, closes the safe and makes a hasty escape back to the ship. He takes off and heads for earth grumbling how rolling down a flight of stairs wanst the best thing for his shoulder.. Strider Hiryu - 10 Mar 2003 06:12 pm Post subject: OOC: Well I finally found time to get on more often and do this so thats why I'm active again. IC: Geddoe: Hurry Denethor. I can hear a group of soldiers coming this way. Denethor: Its almost done. We need another minute. Geddoe: We don't have another minute. Denethor: Well make one then. Take one of those mini detonators and throw it down the hall. Geddoe: But that will set off the alarms. Denethor: I don't care. We're only going to be here for a few minutes anyway. Just enough time to download the scamatics for the technology then get out and maybe while we're at it get some upgrades for the psychoframe on board the SS. Geddoe: Alright. *Geddoe throws a mini detonator down the hall into the intersection and then blows it causing the roof to collapse in in that area. The alarms go off and the door opens* Denethor: Alright we're in. *they enter to find five technichians working on the Time-Dimensional warp technology* Denethor: Alright I'll make this quick. I want all of the schematics for that downloaded on a disc and then I want the originals destroyed. Head Technician: And what if we don't? Denethor: Then I'll have to kill you and do it myself. Head Technician: Alright then. Here. *the Technician throws Denethor a copy of all of the data* Head Technician: Hey aren't you that Darkweaver fellow? Denethor: Yes I am why do you ask? Head Technician: Because Alton is looking for you. Also here. Here are the specs for a newly upgraded version of the psychoframe on board the SS and a few new specs for some upgrades. Thank Alton for all of that. Denethor: Sure I'll do that. *Denethor pulls out a pistol and shoots all five technicians* Denethor: Theres my thanks. Lets go. Geddoe: The entrance is being blocked by guards and the place is being swarmed with IE suits. Denethor: Shit. Well then I guess we'll have to do this the hard way. SS show yourself now. We're going out with a bang. SS (over a communicator implanted within Denethor): Right. I'm coming now. *the SS decloaks outside of the facility and blows a hole in the side of the wall where Denethor and Geddoe are. Denethor and Geddoe jump in the cockpit and take off* Denethor: Right now launch the Shadow Funnels to keep them busy. SS: Right launching them now. *the Shadow Funnels fly off and start destroying targets left and right* Denethor: Lets get back to the Stalker. ---One hour later--- *The SS docks with the Stalker* Spike: Welcome back. You guys sure made a mess of things. They have increased the award on your head Denethor. They want you badly after what you did back there. Denethor: I can hardly care. Analyze this data that we got. I want to know how to create that jump effect and I also want to know what those upgrades for the SS are. Also did you find out where Alton is? Spike: Yes hes currently on Earth for a meeting with some influential ppl. I can get us there in about two hours. Denethor: Alright. Then set course for Earth. Geddoe your with me. We're gonna upgrade your suit and once Spike has analyzed the data upgrade mine and put that new technology to work within both of our suits. Geddoe: Right lets get to work then. My suit is gonna take atleast an hour to repair. Denethor: Well then that will give us an hour to upgrade mine. *Spike heads off to analyze the data while Denethor and Geddoe get to work* OOC: I'll have upgrades for the SS posted in my next post along with the specs for Geddoe's suit so you all know what its armed with. DeathscytheX - 10 Mar 2003 10:02 pm Post subject: IC: AI: We have reached Earth.. What is your destination? Rob: Antartica the part thats still frozen *marks the coordinates* AI: This location has no life forums of any kind in it.. chances of survival outside ship perameters is limited to 2 hours. Rob: Land.. The Ship lands roughly on the surface, high winds were rocking the ship side to side. Rob new he wouldnt last long outside, all he had was a trench coat.. he Walked outside in teh freezing cold blizzard, he walked around for about five minutes holding the yellow eletronic security card.. He was freezing, just when he was about to walk back in to warm up, the card illuminated blue, a Box like object slowly rose out of the snow, there was slot.. Rob put the card in, it was sucked into the slot immediatly and a Blue Card poped out and a door opend. Rob stepped into the door and it shut.. It was an elevator. Rob, shaking from the cold brushes off snow from his head and shoulders. after about five minutes the elevator stoped and the door opend into a huge underground lobby with massive blast doors. and A single hangar which once carried a mecha. Rob walked up to it and put his hand on the wall of it. Rob: You served me well my friend.. I did promise my father Id never use you.. but I had no choice.. the NV-MAD6 was definantly the best of the series... Im glad Im the only one that had the privaledge to pilot it. Rob looked over at the massive pitch black blast doors with the tiny console with a keypad and a slot for a card.. Rob looked at the card in his hand. Rob: he would understand... Azrael - 10 Mar 2003 10:51 pm Post subject: OOC: Ok, continued from earlier. IC: Without warning, his memory snapped back. Now he remembered the onslaught of IE fighters, the EMP blackout... The left arm. Tenshi's left arm was cut off. He felt it...an effect of direct input. Agony...desperate rage. A mass of steel tendrils grew in place of the left arm and he struck back...at the pilot who had taken his arm, at the squadron behind him, at a nearby Volarian suit...at everything. In his last moment of consciousness, the vines withdrew and Mukuro felt Tenshi's arm reconnect. All of this came suddenly to him. Mukuro found a window just in time to throw up. Now he knew the true capabilities of Polarian engineering first-hand. After several minutes, he went to find the hangar. DeathscytheX - 10 Mar 2003 11:57 pm Post subject: IC: Rob walked over to the console and stuck the card in.. the keypad buttons illuminated blue. Rob typed in 1776, him and his dad being big earth history fans, decided that would be something no one would figure out if they managed to get that far. the blast doors slowly opened reveiling a evil looking pitch black mecha sitting in the hangar. It was the real Project X. Rob: So we meet again... its been a while.. I have great plans for you. The IE will surely cowar before me. The Mecha's eyes lit up neon blue for a few seconds and dimmed off. ======================== Robs New Suit Ultra X (aka Project X) Height: 152 ft Weight: 36.89 Tons Decal: Dark Fury Squadron (Jim Opsulous' old Squad) Abilities: Zero Gravity - Excellent Gravity - Excellent Aqua - Excellent Melee - Excellent Medium Range - Excellent Long Range - Excellent Weaponry 1x Anti-Mater Staff (can turn into 2 anti-matter rods) 2x High powered chain guns 1x XPR (A ultra powerful plasma rifle that is more like a cannon than anything, it can make rifle like shots, or big ass cannon like beams) 2x head laser mini-cannons 15x Ion missiles 20x Swarmers 2x modifed vulcan cannons 8x Naplam Pods 10x Seismic Mines 1x Cloaking Device 1x Hypershield (can stay up considerably longer than the X's) 1x Missile Lock-On Distorter (hope u have good aim with energy weapons ) 1x communitcaion jammer (bio activated cockpit. half Nerual half Manual controls) Apperance: The Ultra X Isnt quite as bulky as the prototype, but still has its share of thickness. It keeps the dark black appearance, yet holds the Decal from his fathers squadron (No IE logo). The Shoulder armor are in the shape of jawless skulls with fangs, the Knees have a smaller version of this. while the torso looks like a thicker version of an eva unit. Technology: Project X's technology is the most advanced ever known.. (or not known). Its propulsion system runs off the mythological Cold Fusion, the Ultra X never refuels. Its amor has the ability to change shapes in different places (Shoulders, Hands, Forearm, and Feet only).. probably its most unique feature is, that all of its weaponry can spawn off of its own armor, and remerge with it, making it look like it is unarmed when none of its weaponry is acivated. This can only be done with the precious metals found on Corpheria, along with secret ways of using anti-matter technology. Since this Mecha was build years ago, It is still a bit outdated, It does not have the Polarian semi-regeneration which allows only the most skilled of pilots to regerate small parts of its damaged mech. nor does it possess the Time-Dimensional warp jump. Its cockpit contains a head ban worn by the pilot to control it with brainwaves on certian aspects, yet is still half controlled by manual levers, buttons, and computers. this optimizes the suits capabilities, and is safer incase one system goes out in battle. Azrael - 11 Mar 2003 02:52 am Post subject: OOC: All hail the mighty DX. cyberlink - 11 Mar 2003 07:43 am Post subject: OOC: WOAH! yeah, all hail DX the ruler........ oh and sorry for the extra long posts latley.... got a lot to write and cant get on here much. OC: With Rei tied down on a lab operation table and the IE Doctor prepareing to do something all rei could think about was what the IE were doing on zion? how did they get here, and what was the doctor going to do to him?? Rei looked around the room, still feeling dizzy from the affects of the drugs that they had given him. He could see all sorts tools and devices. One looked too horrible to even discribe. It seemed to be some sort of Nural cereberal cortex extractor... Rei knew that if he used that thing it would hurt.... a lot. Doctor: so iz ze patient ready for the adminestration?? Assistant: Ja, ze drugs have been administered and he iz now drifting off. Doctor: Gud, GUD!!!!! you wont feel a zhig Rei, once you awaken you will be part of our forces... Rei: i told you... i....will...never.................. Time passed and the doctor began to work on Rei, Implanting devices into the very heart of Rei's brain. The guards outside the door felt sick with the noise and sounds coming form the room. They knew what the doctor was doing, they had seen him do it first hand. It wasnt a pritty site.... Doctor: Guards, take zes Rei to the recovery room. and be delicate with him, he is my latest peice of work...... The guards wheeled the Patient to the recovery room where they connected up the monitoring devices. Guard 1: he dont look half bad does he... no visiable signs of tampering or operation? Guard 2: No, he seems to be getting better at this. Rei began to stirr and the guards exited the room, passing the doctor on the way out. Doctor: Ah, so you have awakened. Tell me Rei how do you feel? Rei: I feel fine doctor. why do you ask?? was i in some sort of accident?? Doctor: excilent. he doesnt remember a thing. he is now totally under the influence of the mind alteration chip!! HA HA HA HA HA!! Rei: Doctor, iof there is nothing wron then will you please excuse me i have to be going back to work. Doctor: Work my dear boy, what on earth do you mean... you have not been assigned and duty parimeters. Rei: Oh., sorry, i have no idea why but i thought i had something to do. Doctor: ah memory relapses,. just a minor setback nothing to worry about i think, it should sort it self out. *CALL FOR DOCTOR ZERGA, CALL FOR DOCTOR ZERGA, LINE 2* The doctor walks up to the communication device mounted up on the wall and answers. Doctor: Ja zis is doctor Zerga, Communication: Doctor, is the work compleate? Doctor: your excelentcey, what a pleasent suprise.... um why yes all work is compleated. just as you asked. Communication: Good. send him to the briefing room imeadiateley. I have some new information for him... Doctor: Okie dokiez.... will do. The doctor hangs up and instructs Rei to the briefing room. As Rei enters he is gazed at by other soldiers awaiting briefing. Rei: Good morning soldiers. dont you know what to do when a superiour officer walks into the room?? The soldiers still look on in disbelieff,. who could this be the legendary soldier of Zion, a former enemy. Now in command of an entire IE Fleet? Commander: DO AS YOU ARE TOLD YOU INSOLENT FOOLS! The soldiers all stand up and salute Rei before retaking their seats. Commander: thank you Rei, please take a seat. No as you are all probarbly wondering we have a new addition to our group. Rei, this is all thanks to the kind work of doctor Zerga. no more questions on this subject. You do as he tells you when he tells you and do deviations. Soldiers: SIR YES SIR!! Commander: okay now on with the briefing. If you will please look at your screens you will see our newest attack stratergy. Operation Infiltrate... The most part of this operation weill be up to Rei and his connections outside of the IE, in otherwords The enemy. Rei will be required to access the secreat deocuments on all the Enemy mechs and transfer the data to us. He will aquire this data from inside the enemy forge. Now once this is compleated Rei will be on his own to escapoe and join us in battle. Soldier: Battle, what battle is that sir? Commander: The battle for Earth, You see taking Earth would be a major blow in the enemy's underbelly. Its their belowed planet, and to most their home, so expect a raging battle. Now, if you look at your screens you will see the battle plans. this displays the data for the prime galaxy, Forces, A1-A10 will be here awaiting the signal Forces B1-D10 will be directley behind them as backup, while Forces E1-k10 will be aproaching the planet from behind. Soldier, so we are literally surrounding the planety in all directions and moving in crushing everything in our path. Commander: exactley!! Soildier: but what about the The enemy Mecha suits, Those really advanced ones..... Commander you mean the Hotaru - 2, Juper 4, Shadow Sun, Karasu and the Revolution Massacre.. yes they are expected to be there as always, but thats what the information Rei will transfer will come in handy, you see every Mecha has a weak point its just a matter of locating it, and with the transfered data we will know exactley where and what they are..... Soldier: and what about the Earth defence system?? Commander: Dont you worry.. the IE have contacted me and said that they have something up there sleave....okay, do the plans are set, Rei will leave in the Austoria Ultima, and the rest of you in your NV-MAD12RZs . UPDATED SUIT DESIGN: * AUSTORIA ULTIMA * Height 140 ft Weight: 34.56 Tons Decal: IE SPECIAL FORCS Abalities: Zego G: Excellent Gravity: Exceptional Aqua: NOT AVAILABLE Melee: Excellent Long range: Excellent Medium Range: Excellent Weaponry: 2X Ultra Sonic Beam Saber's 1X Ultra Twin Beam Rifle MK II 4X High Velocity Vulcan Cannons 8X Long Range Seismic Missiles (LSM) 2X Bio organic Lasers 4X Bio Photon Mines ( Vapourises all organic material in a 100 mile radus, can only be used in atmospheric conditions) 4X Image Disruptors ( decoy's) 1X Automated Camoflage System (ACS) 1X Automated Targeting Syatem (ATS) 1X Self Defence Systems (SDF) 1X Ballistic Shield (similar to that in the Raumhaifisch) Strider Hiryu - 11 Mar 2003 09:01 am Post subject: OOC: Now I'm really glad I'm a DX's side. Well after my next upgrade I'll be a force to be reconed with also. I'll post the upgrade in the next post since I don't have it complete yet along with Geddoe's suit specs. IC: Spike: Denethor I have just finished analyzing the data. Some of these upgrades for the SS are quite extensive and quite powerful. Also there are specs in this for a Time-Dimensional Warp engine for the SS and for any other suit out there. Alton must either really like you or he wants you to get killed using the technology. Denethor: Ah well then I'll have to thank him the next time I see him. You're sure hes on earth right? Spike: Well by the data that Rob gave us the last time we met and by cross-referencing it with data on Alton's most visited spots yea I'm sure that hes going to be on earth. He wants you to find him cause it also says here in the data that he will wait for you on earth with the twin brother to the SS. Denethor: Your kidding me they were actually able to finish it. I thought I destroyed it when I stole the SS. That suit is going to be a handful seeing as how it can match the SS in all aspects or well used to be able to since I have upgraded this many times over. Alright then tell us when we arrive on earth. I need to finish repairs to Geddoe's suit along with upgrading my suit. Spike: Right. One more thing. The Time-Dimensional Warp engine can be made into a reactor that will greatly increase your power and will also be able to use the Jumping ability. So you won't need to put a new engine or vernias in. Also the upgrade to the psychoframe is actually kinda on the dangerous side. Its side effects are worse then the originals. The rages last longer and it also has the ability of wiping you memory clear of all memories. So be careful when using it since your psychic powers aren't as strong as they could be for one of your kind. Denethor: What do you mean by that? Spike: I'll tell you at a later date cause I do know where your from and what you are. Denethor: What I am is human. Spike: Thats what the IE wants you to think. I'll save it for another time though. We should arrive near earth in about 1 hour so hurry up. Denethor: Yea whatever. *Denethor goes back to repairing Geddoe's suit* Vyper - 11 Mar 2003 09:25 am Post subject: OOC: WTF!! I go to IE and everybody goes! And the Hotaru 2 is now a part of the IE and therefore no longer an enemy, Cyberlink IC: The Hotaru 2 skids into bay, and all pilots look anxiously at it. Hiroko barely opens the cockpit, and limply makes it up to the door platform. He collapses and falls some 70 feet. ------------- Hatsuma: That almost killed us.. Consort: Yeah.. They walk into the Electrode Reprogramming room, and see Rei walk out. Hatsuma: FOOLS! I said not to use that on any one else!! Now get rid of him or die!! Scientist: Vhat?!? Du die nicht like zi fake-ah accent!! Hatsuma: :: punches stupid scientist :: Take care of him or start drifting in space! Scientist 2: :: shudders :: Y-yes, sir. Hatsuma: That technology is experimental and if it fails you're essentially just letting them go! Scientist 2: Erm yes.. bu- Hatsuma: Do you know why we have explosives planted in the Hotaru 2? If he figures himself out we can't stand to have him loose again! Now TAKE CARE OF IT. Scientist 2: Fine. ---------- A group of scientists and IE guards approach Rei. The guards run up and try to restrain him. Rei: What are you doing?? :: jump kicks one across the face and punches one in the stomach :: Scientist: Please calm down. Rei begins running at the scientist. The scientist presses a button on his tablet with a stylus. Rei clasps his head and collapses on the floor, and begins to assume a fetal position. The guards pick him up and carry him off to an escape pod. Scientist: Set location: Bhali. ---Later--- Hatsuma: What did you do with him? Scientist: We sent him to the remote desert planet, Bhali. Hatsuma: Ah, very well. We will be sending guards in the labs from now on to make sure you're only doing research and not experiments from now on. DeathscytheX - 11 Mar 2003 06:37 pm Post subject: OOC: GRX was the 1st to rejoin the IE the Revolution Massicare wouldnt be there either.. u have to read the other posts cyberlink.... as for my new suit it was built to be the ultimate... IC: Rob Gets in the cockpit and puts the headband on.. he thinks to turn on the Ultra X and it activates, all the consoles light up and the computer greats him, Rob was s bit shocked at 1st but then relised what happend.. He detached from the hangar wall and walked 7 steps foward to the launch pad. huge doors opened up from above as soon as Rob saw the light of day he bursted out of the hole in the ground within seconds up about 10,000 ft in the air. Rob: HOOOOOOLLYYYYY SH--I-I-I-T!!! *stops and gasps for air*... daaaaaamnn!! HA HAAA!! woo!!! hell yes! hmm lets see.. ah all ammo is full except for napalm pods.. cant have thoes sitting in there for years they will corrode so that makes since.. Rob acitivated the anti-matter staff, a small bar the size of the UX's palm came up out of its hand and then that bar extended 70ft in each direction making it almost as tall as the Ultra X itself, it illuminated blue with a bit of flickering purple much like most anti-matter weaponry. Rob then separated them into 2 rods and twirled them around, after he got tried of that he put it them back together and it shortened once again and remerged into the hand. Rob thought for the chain guns, and the spawned out of the bottom side of the forearms and the hand thrusted out of the top of the 2 long narrow shafts into the hands of the Ultra X. He watched as the crosshairs followed along with his eyes.. anywhere he looked on the screen is where they targeted. Rob: This is too sweet.. *makes them remerge*.. enough playing around tho... Robs face turns serious and he zips out of the atmosphere, cloaks and zooms off into space. Azrael - 11 Mar 2003 08:42 pm Post subject: OOC: Hmm...well, I never posted the specs for Karasu after the last upgrade. Since it seems to be the trend now... Tenshi Height: 120' Weight: 19.3t Decals: None Combat Abilities Space: Excellent Gravity: Good Aqua: Fair Melee: Excellent Medium range: Good Long range: Good Weapons / Equipment 2x Antimatter beam saber 2x Vulcan gun 2x Mass driver (rapid-fire option) 1x Shock cannon 12x Rift mine 1x Cloaking system 1x Polarian bio-integration (the repair/growth thing) 1x Direct input cockpit (hasn't changed since the first model) 1x Temporal distortion system (mentioned earlier. Good for long distances in a straight line, VERY energy-expensive to maneuver in field) Gundam-Ranger-X - 11 Mar 2003 09:27 pm Post subject: Lev was rather upset at his CO for not letting him participate in the battle. Worst still he now had a 'partner', he didn't like partners but he would tolerate this one if it meant getting Rob. Lev was also rather bored. He decided to go test out some of his new toys. So he headed to the mech hangar. * * * Outside sesveral dummy mechs and a few dummy ships had been set up around the Raumhaifish. Revolution Massacre floated silently.....and the awoke adn fired it's PPSC at one of the ship mock-ups. The intense beam drilled it's way straight trough it, making it explode. Lev then deployed the funnels against them. They were quickly being mowed down by the funnels in a series of explosions as each of the dummy mech exploded one after the other in a remarcably fast pace. It only took one or two shots from the funnels to destroy it's target. Revolution Massacre's new targheting comp. was now able to lock-on to twenty enemy signatures at a time. Lev laughed because powerfull his new toys were. * * * Lev docked his mech and went looking for Hiroko, he wanted to know what his partner's plan was for taking out the sepratists.

Tactical: I dont know Sir I have never seen anything like it.. the computer doesnt recognize it! ======= The UX slams through the haul of the Levianthan bursting through several decks finally busting out of the floor of the port side hangar and landing on one knee, it slowly and erily gets up and stands.. matenance crew run out and soldiers come in firing wepons at the UX but they bounce off the armor like tennis balls, The chain guns thrusts out of the forearms of the UX, and start firing at the unmaned suits destorying many of them while pilots swarm to get to there own suit. The crew on deck watch in horror as they didnt know what was happening or who this was. Its not every day u have a Mecha fight inside a battlecuriser. A suit comes up behind the UX and puts its arms around it trying to constrain it. Pilot: Ah I have you now! Rob: *soft chuckle* Putting away the chain guns the UX extends its arms forcing off the arms of the IE mecha, the UX grabs the the left arm of the mecha and swings it sending it flying into 3 more mecha's making them explode wiping out the firing soldiers. another suit charges the UX, but Rob pounds its fist into the torso making it incave in one blow like a tin can crushing the pilot instantly, the UX then steps on the fallen suit crushing its torso even more and embeding it into the ground. As more soldiers poored in, rob fired an ion missile at the left wall blowing a hole in it, sucking many people out into space. Rob watches as the bodies decompressed and exploded as they left the ship. Rob activated the Anti-Matter staff and destoryed the remaining mechas. They were all new models Rob had never seen before but that was not his concern right now.. they were no match for his power. Rob sliced a hole in the other wall more people got sucked out into space as the wall was cut open, rob walked into the engine room and sliced the core in half.. toxic fumes poured out everywere. Rob grinned when he saw this and dropped 5 seimic mines on the floor and then activated the hypershild once more an busted throught more decks until he exited through the top of the levianthan and didnt stop until he was about 400 meters away. the XPR extended off the right arm of the UX as Rob aimed for the engine room, he fired a single shot and watched as the beam passed through the room hitting the mines which then ignited the fumes. 1/4 of the ship blew off the main portion as half the insides fry after the fumes had time to seep into some of the ventilation shafts. all though the ship wasnt tottaly destoryed.. the whole crew would die within minutes from the highly poisonous fumes, and radiation flowing through the ship... it would have been better to die in the explosion. The UX cloaked and disappeared into space. Strider Hiryu - 12 Mar 2003 08:56 am Post subject: OOC: Finally I can update my suit. WOOO-HOOO!!!!!! --SS Armament Upgrade (contains all weapons plus upgrades and add-ons)-- 4x Anti-Matter missle pods (2 missles each)(2 more added on in upgrade) 2x Phase Blasters 2x Beam Rail Guns 2x VSBR's 1x high energy beam sniper rifle (permenantly mounted on right shoulder) 6x machine cannons 24x Shadow Funnels (due to psychoframe upgrade Denethor can now control up to 24 Shadow Funnels, 12 more added) 2x Plasma cannons 1x Shadow Saber 2x Hyper Jammers 1x Shadow Vesper (Newly updated cloak, The SS can now stay cloaked even during battle and movement, thanks to the TDW reactor) 1x Shadow Shield Revamp (can now be activated for up to 20 min at a time before power is drained) TDW Reactor (Time-Dimensional Warp technology. Can jump without the use of wormholes now, also increases suit power) Psychoframe upgrade (This taps further into Denethor's psychic powers. This also allows Denethor to control his suit complete by thought now but on the consequences of some side effects) Suit Abilities: Zero Gravity: Excellent Gravity: Excellent Aqua: Average Melee: Average Medium Range: Excellent Long Range: Excellent (devestating basically) --Testament's Armament (Geddoe's Suit)-- 1x High energy beam rifle 2x Plasma Cannons 2x Beam Sabers 6x Missle Pods (4 missles each) TDW Reactor (His suit is just an upgraded form of an IE suit. Thats why theres so few weapons) IC: Denethor: Repairs and upgrades are finally finished. Geddoe: Yea and it only took us an our and a half. Denethor: To bad we couldn't make your suit much better then it was. Geddoe: Well with that new reactor I won't have to worry about much. Denethor: I suppose your right. Spike: Denethor we will arrive in about 5 minutes. Denethor: Right. Well the suits are ready. Meet us in the mess hall for planning after we arrive on earth. Spike: Alright. *five minutes later the Stalker emerges from the wormhole right into the debris field of the Levianthan* Spike: Holy shit. Looks like someone had some fun before we got here. Denethor: What ship is the debris from? Spike: Can't tell it looks like it was a pretty powerful ship though. Denethor: Alright change of plans. You and Geddoe will stay here and find out what ship this was. I'm going to go pay Alton a visit. Spike: Right. *Denethor jumps into the cockpit of the SS and takes off from the Stalker* SS: So where are we going? Denethor: Earth. We're going after Alton. SS: Hmm. Well I suggest we cloak ourselves. Denethor: Alright then cloak the suit and make best speed for Japan. SS: Right. *the SS cloaks and heads for Japan* DeathscytheX - 12 Mar 2003 11:07 pm Post subject: OOC: the ship should have been recognizable I only broke 1/4 of a chunk off of it, just the crew died.. ah oh well. IC: The UX travels after taking out a Crest Mecha Production factory, and he turns on a link to listen to some news.. he saw a story on him... Hiroko was given a medal for the death of Rob Opsulous, The IE seemed to have a different attitude now.. more relaxed.. to them it seemed that there 2 biggest obsticles were no longer problems. Rob: they must feel unstoppable now.. I cant wait till they find the levianthan. Rob Figures its better to lay low and continue to let the universe think he was dead.. It would make it more fun to watch the IE stress themselves over a new problem only to find out it was the same problem that just got alot worse. Vyper - 13 Mar 2003 12:16 am Post subject: Balklava: We will begin additional brain data transfer on Hiroko, copying the compressed mindset of Alton Thronage into Hiroko's right lobe. This is due to the fact that we believe Alton's life may be endangered, as he makes the dumbest moves. Additionally we will launch a full scale attack on Neo Tokyo, eliminating the need for Earth. Strider Hiryu - 13 Mar 2003 09:03 am Post subject: OOC: True it should be but I've never fought against the ship or met it for I was only with you for a short time and I was often off doing something else like I am now. IC: Denethor: Spike we have arrived in Japan. Where is Alton located? Spike: As far as I know he is located in Neo Tokyo. You'll have to head there to find out. Denethor: Have you two found anything out yet on that ship? Spike: Yea we actually have but we'll tell you later seeing as how the IE is starting to arrive and we might look suspicious rumaging through a debris field of an IE ship. Denethor: Alright. One more question before I go. Where is he at in Neo Tokyo? Spike: That I can't figure out. I do know where the Aird is though and seeing as how only Alton is able to pilot it thats where he probably is. Its located in a hanger in northern Neo Tokyo. Denethor: Right. I'll get back to you after I kill him and find out a few things. Spike: Alright. Just don't get yourself killed. Denethor: Right. Denethor out. *Denethor heads off for the Northern districts of Neo Tokyo* OOC: The Aird is the twin brother to the SS. It has all the same weaponry as the SS did when we first started plus a few other additions. I'll post them tomorrow or sometime in the future all depending on when I get to fight it or one of you others gets to fight it. cyberlink - 13 Mar 2003 09:39 am Post subject: Vyper wrote: OOC: WTF!!

And since i was away for 2 weeks on an Army training exercise i wouldent have known what had happened, I know that i should have read the posts but to be honest i didnt have time when i began posting again, so i just pasted the nextpart to my episode., I honestley didnt know that you had gone over to the IE, I still cant find that post because there is HUNDREDS of posts to search through. So now that you have totally buggered up my story line i will have to make do with what you have given me to work with., Which to be honest isnt much! oh well, im not haveing a go okay, just to let you know that i didnt know that you and some others were on the IE and i admitt that i didnt read the posts before i posted... SORRY! IC: After his little escipade on the IE command Base (or where ever he was) Rei awoke to find himself stranded in the middle on a desolate place, Where of even when he was he had no idea. Rei clambered out of the Evacuation pod where Hatsuma had curley ordered him to be placed. Rei began to think to himself... Rei: '*why am i here, what happened, why had the IE abandoned him. after all he was part of the IE wasnt he??' Rei suddenly collapsed on the sand in agony, Clasping his head. He could feel blood trickle down towards his ear, The pain subsided and He stood up, holding on to the edge of the evac pod to prop himself up. Thoughts began running through his head, He was part of the IE yet he didnt feel that way. Was he part of the IE, come to think of it, Rei couldent remember much past 12 hours ago. The only things he could remember was that he was an elite Mech pilot, his suit had just been upgraded and was still chained down to prevent theft. Rei looked at his wrist node and logged into the X network. (not your mech DX). he logged onto the Location sat and found that he was on a planet called Bhali, it was a desolate Desert planet. Nothing but sand and rock. No water or plantation had ever been found on Bhali. Rei knew that if he didnt find medical attention soon he would surley die, Come to think of it if he didnt find water or Nourishment the same fate would befall him. Rei Looked at his Wrist Node and requested the location of his Suit, The node searched and a display poped up saying Currentley Unavailable. Rei: what. what is this, Rei them disconnects from the X network and re-logs in to the Austoria Systems network. He types in his password, which he is supprised he could even remember. A menu appears, 1: Status 2: Weapons check 3: network database 4: Automated rescue 5: Automated Mission Systems 6: Self distruct 7: log off network. Rei: Whay have they done this to me, WHY!, well if they want to play games then we shall play games. Rei taps at his wrist node, accessing The weapons check Menu. Rei: right, now for some fun.... Although Rei was on another planet, the Austoria could still be controlled via remote. Guards standing near the austoria in the IE base looked in amasement as the Suit began to power up. -----*ZION IE BASE*----- Engineer: What is going on here, who authorised this? Guard 1: uh... no one did sir, no-one has been inside the Austoria, It just powered up all by its self. Engineer: what impossable, i know the upgraded fitted to this suit and there is no such device. Guard 2: well sir, i think your wrong, look. The guard points towards the open cockpit, It was empty, The doors to the cockpit close and the Austoria Stands up to its full length, Snapping the Chains on the way. Engineer: WHAT! sound the alarms, we have a rouge suit on our hands! Just as Rei had commanded via his wrist node on Bhali the AU ( Austoria Ultima) Began weapons checks, Engineer 2: Whaa..... whats going on, how can this be. what is it doing. Why is it doing a full weapond check? --*BHALI*-- Rei chuckled to himself as he watched the look on the guards faces via the external cameras. Rei: no i have em spooked lets, totally terrify them. Rei traps again at his wrist node. this time selecting the Automated Mission Systems menu, them selecting Remote control. Rei began to type frantically at his node giving the austoria commands, keeping them on hold till he was finished. --*ZION IE BASE*-- Scientist: what is going on here! Guard 1: SIR DUCK!! The scientist didnt have time and a bullet flew straight through his chest. ripping all his intarnal organs out through the back. Chaos consumed the hanger as the austoria began an onslaught. Guards began to fire at the Rogue Mech, (or so they think). Suddenly the AU stopped in its tracks. Had they managed to regain control? NO, the engines on the AU began to power up to full blast, Guard 2: look above it, thats Marck Alloy, it will never break through! The austoria began to move again, this time raising its arm above its head aiming directley above it. A charge of energy began to form in the palm of the AU's palm (DB style.. he he) The suit let rip and the beam of energy ripped through the Celing like a bullet through paper. Guard 2: i take back my pervious statement, oh and by the way RUN!! The AU's Engines now powered up to the Max ignighted and a blast of flames engulfed the surrounding ares, incenorating everything. The AU rose up and out of the complex, suddenly there was a brilliant flash with the AU engaging the Hyper Vernieaie Engines. Vanishing into the distance, leaving the Hidden Base in chaos, the AU headed towards Bhali with the Automated Rescue subsystem activated. --*Bhali*-- Rei: now its just a matter of waiting. shouldent take long, but i hope it gets here before that sandstorm hits..................... Vyper - 13 Mar 2003 09:44 am Post subject: Balklava: Hiroko, the Zion Base have requested help from us. Please take care of a berzerker mech for us.. Hiroko: Affirmative. :: Hiroko blasts off for Zion :: (More shall be added after school) cyberlink - 13 Mar 2003 11:43 am Post subject: The AU reaches Bhali, exhausted and in desperate need of medical attention Rei clambers into his Mech. MMI: Rei, are you okay, shall i administer medical attention? Rei: yea, please do. The MMI engages the Nano repair systes which set to work repairing Rei's damaged Anderiod body. *more shall be added later when i get home* DeathscytheX - 13 Mar 2003 04:14 pm Post subject: IC: UXC: Data in... The Liberator and the Hellbringer are headed in a destination that seems to run near earths location... the the battle crusiers are follwed by the Raumhaifisch by aboud 6 hours. Rob: Interesting indeed... what would they want with earth?.. computer give me current data on the 3 skybases in earths orbit. UXC: all have been put on restricted access.. only IE personel make dock them at this time. Rob: what is the nearest jumpgate? UXC: Nero I Rob: about 4 hours from here UXC: 2 at full speed Rob: um.. ok, lets do it. The UX heads toward the Nero I The news comes on Reporter: The Levianthan has been reported to be critically damaged.. the IE has not reported on how many casualties there have been or how many survivors.. all we know right now is that it has been brought in for reconstruction. We are joined by Sirus Melionozo a Lt. Commander, hello Melinozo Sirus: call me sirus Reporter: ok.. do you know who is behind this attack? Sirus: No we dont, we believe it was probably a gang of sepreratist fanatics, probably with the help of funding from the Volarians. Seperatists have been getting more unruley ever since the death of Rob Opsulous.. we will get to the bottom of this and catch the people who are responcible.. that is all Reporter: thank you Lt. Commander Melionozo... we will have more on this as information comes in.. this is the FBSN (Federation Broadcasting Satillite Network) news reporting 1300 hrs. Rob: idiots.. there were no survivors. the UX cloaks as he heads toward its desitination. Azrael - 13 Mar 2003 09:41 pm Post subject: Since leaving Volaria, Mukuro had returned to his day jobs of killing and smuggling for the past few days. His side-project of killing Hiroko was coming along nicely too: he had several reliable IE contacts now, and was very close to getting the schematics of the Raumhaifisch. Mukuro had just finished dropping off a shipment on Earth when he picked up the Liberator and Hellraiser. When they came within visual range he saw how badly damaged the Liberator was and decided that it was worth staying to check out. He left the cargo ship in low orbit and took the cloaked Tenshi to wait at the Skybase nearest the approaching cruisers. DeathscytheX - 13 Mar 2003 11:41 pm Post subject: IC: Nero I was one of the newer jumpgates created. Rob noticed this as he approched it.. it was much larger and coudl support more than one ship to pass through it at once if needed. UXC: Shall I intilize jump sequence? Rob: you can do that? UXC: Nero I jump squence codes retrieved. booting up.. coordinates set.. jump gate opening At that time the jumpgate beging to glow and fire up. Gate operator: what the hell?! *watching as his monitors are moving without him pressing anything The UX goes in cloaked and the gate shuts down. Gate Operator: we need to call maintanance.. it just set off for no reason.. no ships no reason to turn on.. i didnt press anything.. get someone to check it out... The UX appears 4 hours from the Sol system.. Rob: what.. no exit gate? UXC: It seems the newer jumpgates do not require exit gates.. it cuts cost on bulding them in half.. Rob: must be that timewarp technologly like the liberator has... I better be going all the way back to earth for a good reason.. i just left it a few weeks ago.. the UX heads for the Sol System. cyberlink - 14 Mar 2003 09:02 am Post subject: As the MMI interfaced with rei's celebral output, she released the nano repair system into Rei's blood streem. He began to feel better as the little robots got to work repairing the dammage that the scientist had done to him, (keeping in mind that rei no longer realises that the IE are enemy). MMI:* weather conditions deterieating, suggest either relocation to another point on the planet of Jump to space.* Rei: Well in my current condition i think we should stay on the planet, relocate to a safe position MMI, What is the estimated time of Nano repair? MMI:*given the current status of your injuries, time till compleation will be 23:08* Rei: thats half an hour, thats okay. ill get some shut eye then, MMI I trust you will relocate? MMI:* afermative, relocating now* The Austoria Ultima powers up and moves to another location on the planet Bhali, Rei falls into a deep sleep, a disturbing deep sleep... --*Memory Relapse*-- Person: Rei, its been two weeks now and we still havent found anyway out of here. and another thing. During lastnight i swear that i saw someone. watching us form afar... Rei: well we have looked all overthis complex all appart form that docking bay DX6, its been locked from the inside. we need to get in there somehow. i sware that there is a way out in there. Person: Rei, im hungary..... Rei: well all we have left is the beef and leek pots on the emergancy rations. i suppose that they will have to do. --*Memory Relapse*-- Rei awakens in a cold sweat, what did he just dream, it fealt strangley familiar, but he had no recollection of it happening before. Feeling better after the Nano-Repair sequence Rei requested something to eat and drink, He was still thirsty after being abandoned in the middle of the Desert all alone, Left to die there like some rabid dog tossed out in the garbage. MMI: *Glad you feel better Rei, i will give you an update of systems analysys* Rei: oh yeah thats right, my crew upgraded you just before they abandoned me. I thnk they will be pritty pissed that i have stolen there property. MMI:* I must inform you that i was not there property, neither were you, My sensors indicated that you were under the influence of a Mind control Unit imbeaded into your celebral enhancement unit.* Rei: what does that mean? MMI:* It basically meant that you were under the influence of mind control.* Rei: then if I was under the influence of mind control then why cant i remember anything else if the unit has been disbanded? MMI:* perminant memory loss of all previous events have been erased as part of the control precedure.* Rei: so i will never really know why they took me and what I had done before.... MMI:* sorry, im afrade that you wont.* Rei fell silent deep in thought trying to remember the things past, but to no avail. He copuldent remember anything past 14 hours ago. He could remember What his name was and all his training that he has recieved, When and how he didnt know either. As for what race he was, and where hge came from. well That has the same story. MMI:* My sensors indicate a Suit of some sort appraching Bhali* Rei: scan unidentified unit. MMI:* scanning,.....Scan compleate, sensors indicate that is that of HIROKO, Believed to be highley dangerous by IE rebel forces and highley commendable inside the IE Group.* Rei: so the IE have sent a runner to bring back their suit. how nice, Well since they have disbanded me then i guess that I am no longer part of the IE. Is that a correct assumption MMI? MMI:* that would be correct, Yes. Engaging in battle at this time with an IE suit willn ot constitute as Friendley Forces battle.* Re: weill i say bring it on! Strider Hiryu - 14 Mar 2003 09:15 am Post subject: *Denethor arrives in the northern districts of Neo Tokyo* Denethor: SS can you get any energy readings or any readings at all on the Aird. SS: Scanning............I detect no energy readings from the Aird. I'm picking up a faint signal from it though coming from a hanger to the right. Denethor: Alright lets head over there. *the SS heads over to the hanger* Denethor: Hmm I suppose this would be a good place to hide such a powerful suit. SS blow a hole in the door so we can enter. *the SS uses one of the VSBRs to fire a beam shot which is then reflected away from the door* Denethor: Damnit Alton has its Shield activated. Alright SS scan the frequencies and give me the one that will collapse the shield. SS: Scanning...............I can't isolate the frequency. He must have it set on a changing frequency. Denethor: Well then lets just jump in there then. SS: The technology is not set completely in stone yet for jumping that short of a distance in a suit. Denethor: Do it anyway. *the SS disappears and reappears within the hanger to find the Aird just sitting there* Denethor: Well we finally meet again Aird. I thought I destroyed you when I stole the SS here. Aird (AI over the radio): You are mistaken Denethor. Alton was able to save me before that. I would like to get my revenge on you but as you know I require Alton to work. Denethor: Which saves me the trouble of having to fight you. Well SS I think its time to start dismantalling this suit. SS: As you wish. Aird: Fool you can't pierce my shield. I'm connected to a generator thats within the shield. You will not pierce it. You must wait till Alton returns before you can have that honor. Denethor: Damnit. Whens he due to return? Aird: I have no idea. I haven't seen him in over two months. Denethor: Well now. I don't have time to sit and wait. Aird: Actually you won't have to wait long. I'm picking up the signal of Alton's personal shuttle coming now. ---On board Alton's Shuttle--- Alton: Hurry it up already. I have something important to pick up here. I don't have time to sit and wait for you to go through all these procedures. Pilot: I'm sorry sir. It will only be another 5 min. If I don't go through these procedures we will be arrested. Alton: Alright then just hurry up. Vyper - 14 Mar 2003 12:46 pm Post subject: Balklava: Hiroko, do you read. Hiroko: Yes, sir. Balklava: You will pull out of your current mission and assist on our attack with Earth; it will be a larger battle than we once thought. Hiroko: Affirmative.

I will not be needing you to take me anywhere anymore. Pilot: Yes sir. *the shuttle takes off* Alton: Alright it looks like its time for me to launch the Aird after its 2 month resting period. Aird powerdown outside shield and allow me entrance into the hanger. Aird: I don't think thats wise Alton for you have a vistor thats waiting for you inside. Alton: I already know that. Just do it. Aird: As you wish. *the shield drops and the hanger doors open. As Alton is entering he's stopped abruptly when the barrel of a VSBR is noticed right in front of him* Alton: So nice of you to finally come Denethor. I was wondering when you'd show yourself. Denethor: Thats enough out of you. You will die for the death of my parents and my friends. Alton: Hmpf. You still think it was me you naive child. Your wrong. I was nowhere near that place when it happened. Your parents were killed by the IE, not me. I may be a part of the IE but I was nowhere near Terra Vedra when the IE attacked. I was working on the Shadow Sun when it happend. So that means I was here on Earth. Denethor: Terra Vedra? What are you talking about? Alton: Thats your home planet if you didn't know. Your a Vedran. The planet was destroyed shortly after the Vedran Terrorist group escaped with you. You and I are the last of our race. I created these suits for both of us. I knew about you well before you heard about me. So I created the SS for your use. Thats why when you stole it I wasn't to heartbroken over it. Denethor: So you mean to tell me you've known about me all along and that I'm just a part of your plans. Alton: Yes and no. Since we are Vedran we share a empathetic link with each other so thats how I've known about you being Vedran. As for my schemes I have none. I just work for the IE. I warn you to get off this planet for the IE will be attacking it shortly. Denethor: I could hardly care about that. All I care about is killing you for all these years of suffereing I've gone through to find you. Alton: Well then shall we fight it out? If you wish to fight it out meet me on the moon. I do not wish to get caught up in this skirmish between earth and the IE. Aird we are leaving. Set course for the moon. Aird: As you wish. *Alton jumps into the cockpit and the Aird takes off toward the moon* Denethor: Damn him. SS establish a connection with the Stalker. SS: Right away..........Connection Establised. Spike: What is it Denethor? Denethor: Meet me on the moon. Don't ask why but just do it. Spike: Alright. We will meet you there. Denethor: SS activate the TDW reactor. We are going to jump to the moon. SS: As you wish. Do you think it wise for us to fight Alton in your current mental condition? Denethor: Just shut up and jump. I'm not in the mood to be analyzed by you. *the SS jumps and arrives on the moon seconds later* Denethor: Now we wait. SS get me all the info you can on Terra Vedra. SS: Right. *the SS searches for the info while they await the arrival of Alton* OOC: I will post the armaments of the Aird in my next post. Azrael - 14 Mar 2003 07:14 pm Post subject: As the cruisers drew closer, Mukuro became more and more unsure of their purpose, remembering what happened the last time he saw two IE cruisers in the Sol system. He set his com to the CS command frequency. Mukuro: All available combat units, report to your nearest slipgate group and await further instructions. Now he switched to a closed channel. Mukuro: How is the project coming? Officer: Well, so far we're on schedule. None of the stations are ready for combat yet, but XVI should be up within a few days. Mukuro: ...Ok. How quickly can that one be ready with all crews on it? Officer: Ah, well, I guess...about twelve hours, but that doesn't leave time for testing. Mukuro: Ok...concentrate operations on XVI then.

We will stay and fight to save this place if need be. Launch and cloak yourself. Put us close to the nearest IE ship and we'll wait for an opportunity to attack. Send a message to Spike letting him know. SS: As you wish. *the SS cloaks and launches from the moon positioning itself by a random IE ship* ---Onboard the Stalker--- Spike: Alright thanks for the message SS. Geddoe we are leaving this area. Theres a mass of IE ships coming to this location. Denethor wants us out of here. We're heading to Mars. Geddoe: Right. *the Stalker heads toward Mars* OOC: Due to the mass of IE ships gathering around the Earth I decided to delay my fight with Alton. It will happen in the future though.

UXC: very well *different information pops up on different monitors* Vyper - 16 Mar 2003 10:25 pm Post subject: Operator 1: Commander Balklava, the NV-MAD7[Hotaru2] is within Remotely Powered Time Warp range. Commence? Commander Balklava: Affirmative. Operator 2: Activating Time Matrices..estimated time to power up - two minutes. Commander Balkava: Good. And that is the auxillary set of matrices, correct? Operator 2: Yes. May I ask why? Commander Balklava: Secretary, call in Scientist Furismo for the briefing. Secretary[P.A]: Would Scientist Furismo please report to the main bridge. Commander Balklava: Engage hypershields. [A shudder overcomes the entire eighty mile-wide battlecruiser, and a pink bubble appears and becomes clear] Furismo runs into the command bridge, huffing. Furismo: Y-yes, B-Mr. Balklava? Commander Balklava: Ahh, Furismo, you are still young. You need not worry, you will survive.. if I felt this was risky, I wouldn't have gone; I have a wife and two young children. Anyways, give us the briefing. Furismo: Well won't there be families desecrated on Earth as well? Commander Balklava: :: sigh :: Yes.. but unfortunately, that is the aspect of war; loss. We can't help human nature.. we are thrown into violence from disagreeing aspects of life. Commander Vindynol: ENOUGH, BALKLAVA!! It is a good thing there is a mutual commander system on this vessel or the Raumhaifisch would be full of pansies!! Now, boy! Give us the briefing!! Furismo (cowering): W-well, this takes advantage of the active time warp matrices, only creating a field in a certain section where time is frozen.... this can be used for many things, such as preservation and.. Commander Vindynol: BOY! FOR EVERY SECOND YOU DRAG ON IS 1,000 CREDITS YOU LOSE FROM YOUR SCHOLARSHIP!! Commander Balklava: Now, then Vindynol, let's not get worked up... Commander Vindynol: AND YOU!! IF YOU LET A SINGLE SUIT GET WITHIN 50 FEET OF THE HYPERSHIELD I WILL SUBMIT A REPORT TO HAVE YOU FIRED!! Mumbling in Background: That means if he resigns he knows too much information and they will have to kill him.. Commander Balklava: It is pricks like you who make the IE who they are.. Balklava is kicked in the chest with the considerably younger Vindynol's steel-tipped boots, and collapses on the floor. Commander Balklava: :: gasp :: (whispering) Just tell him want he wants to know and put an end to this.... :: passes out :: Furismo: What I'm sure you want to know is.. that it can freeze suits in their place. However, Any projectiles or objects fired at them, as soon as they enter the field, will freeze as well until the field is deactivated. Commander Vindynol: Very good, boy. You may leave now. :: Furismo leaves :: Commander Vindynol: GET BACK TO WORK!! COMMUNICATIONS - TELL ALL MINOR BATTLECRUISERS TO ENTER EARTH'S AIRSPACE AROUND NEO TOKYO! WE WILL REMOTELY ATTACK NEO TOKYO WITH THE GRAVITRON CANNON AND ASSIST THE BATTLE FROM AFAR VIA POSITRON BEAM CANNONS. THAT IS ALL!! DeathscytheX - 17 Mar 2003 12:27 am Post subject: IC: The Gravitron cannon fires, the white orb zips between the 2 battle curisers and nails Neo Tokyo. Rob: The hell?! computer.. stats. UXC: sensors indicate gravitron cannon fire from Raumhaifisch. 27% of neo tokyo has been destoryed Rob: thats the equivalent of 8 major cities.. (neo tokyo is a massive metropolis and makes up 20% of what was once japan.) UXC: The NV-MAD7 has arrive near our proximity by some kind of warp technology. Shall I initiate battle systems? Rob: No... let him pass UXC: isnt the NV-MAD7 what you were waiting for Rob: we will let him pass. Meanwhile Mukuro picks up the Hotaru-2 on his scanners and finds out it is headed towards neo-tokyo.. the irony of it all.. it is where he 1st met Rob and Hiroko. cyberlink - 17 Mar 2003 08:58 am Post subject: IC: MMI:*Sensors indicate that the Suit has disengaged and is pulling away form Bhali* Rei: HA! probarbly running scared.... MMI:*I wouldent jump to such a hasty conclusion if I were you.. there may be much bigger things afoot.* Rei: So... what are you trying to say.? MMI:*Im trying to say that I would be a good Idea to follow the Suit and try and find out, 1: why it disengaged, 2: who he is working for and 3: where it is headed now.* Rei: I see your point, Go on then Austoria, follow that Suit. MMI: shall I engage ACS? Rei: What the Automated camoflage System? Sure, after those modifications they made to it there is no way that he could spot us. MMI: yes, the ACS was modified and the Camoflage system is now totally capeable of running at full capacaty indefinatley and also the output signature has been totally removed, no harmonic or resonic waves are being broadcast either.* Rei: Totally Invisable eh, well I suppose this will be the first test to see if those mechanics live up to their reputation. The Austoria Blasts off into space leaving the Battered and desolate planet known as Bhali behind, In the distance Rei keeps a close eye on the Suit piloted by Hiroko. 'im behind you' rei says to himself looking at the monitor displaying the totally oblivious Suit. Rei: MMI is there any chance that you can deep scan the Unit and access its data banks? MMI:* affermative, scanning the unit will give a lock on the Units Network systems IP. form there I can access the sub routines and gain access to the Suits Data banks, May I ask why you want to do this, this may risk us being detected, I cannot totally be sure that my systems will be able to bypass the security lockouts, although i can barge past them they will alert the pilot and then he will know our presence.* Rei: I wank to know the suits communication frequencies. By gaining those frequencies we can listen in on what those Tratorous IE are up to. MMI:* why dont you just input the frequencies you used when You were in the IE? * Rei: I have tried, but you know the first rule. If indoubt of communication security chance frequencies and scramble others. MMI:* okay, stupid question really. Shall I begin the Deep Scan?* Rei: Yes, please Begin. MMI:* scanning..... scanning......Unit IP detected, Accessing Sub routines......Data banks located. SUIT DATA BANKS: WELCOME TO THE ALTON THORNAGE DATA SYSTEM (ATDS) PLEASE SELECT YOUR DESTINATION. Rei: Access Communication file 607. ATDS: ACCESSING FILE, FILE RECIEVED, DISPLAYING PROPERTIES. The Main screen of the Austoria flashes and the contents of the ALTON'S communication file is displayed. Rei scanns through the pages of data and locates a file that intregues him. Rei: Data system copy and send file 1473 to IP: 102 458 785 10225. ATDS: FILE SENT. Rei continues to scan through the pages of mindless gabble and numbers until he comes across what he is looking for. Rei toutches the screen and drags his finger over the Communication frequency numbers highlighting the selection. Rei: MMI, copy selection and paste into seperate document, I suggest a text document. MMI: compleated. Rei: MMI, discontinue all Hacks and reengage in system management, I have what I need. Rei enters the IE communication Frequencies into his comms data bank and tunes in to listen. MMI: Rei I have to warn you that I cannot guarentee compleate security in that last Hack. I could not retrieve a report form the File. Rei: so what, even if he notices that we hacked into his data systems he wont be able to locate us, were totally invisable. Strider Hiryu - 17 Mar 2003 09:07 am Post subject: Denethor: Holy shit what the hell was that? SS: That would be a blast from a Gravitron Cannon. 27% of Neo Tokyo has been destroyed. I suggest that we attack now if we wish to save Neo Tokyo and Earth. Denethor: I would agree but we have no idea if anymore resistance fighters are here and I don't wish to be killed before I kill Alton. SS: So you wish to just sit here and watch the destruction. Denethor: I would gladly give my life to save this planet but to do it alone and against this many IE battleships is suicide even with you. SS: Alright. Waiting is a good idea then. I will let you know once some of the resistance groups surface. Denethor: Thanks. ---Elsewhere--- Aird: Alton your files were currently just hacked. I'm trying to trace the hack now but I don't know if it will be successful. Alton: Damnit theres some important documents in there and also info on both me, Denethor, and a few other ppl that are key to mine and his plans. Aird: I can't trace the hack but I got a rough location of where it happened. Shall we go there? Alton: No. Put a virus into my network that will attack the hacker if he tries again. Aird: As you wish. Vyper - 17 Mar 2003 02:54 pm Post subject: Commander Vindynol: Begin the test of the Active Time Warp Matrices (ATWMs). Operator: Confirmed. :: Balklava clutches his chest :: The set of the twelve time matrice generators, each the size of two semis stacked side by side, heat up. Energy cackles between them. Commander Vindynol: Fire! A black beam is shot from the Raumhaifisch , and comes to a large mass of mobile suit militia. It transforms into a bubble, and the suits freeze. Operator: ATWM is a success. Commander Vindynol: Good. How long before we must deactivate? Operator: Three hours. Commander Vindynol: Very good. Operator 2: Sir, the Gravitron Cannon is 60 percent recovered. What should we prepare the next target for? Commander Vindynol: The largest residential district. That's where they are dispatching the militia from. Operator 2: Affirmative. Balklava begins crawling to the bridge door, only to be quickly noticed by Vindynol. Vindynol stomps on his back with his heavy boot, and twists it into his back -------Meanwhile-------- Hiroko: Commander Balklava, this is Hiroko in the NV-MAD7 on an encrypted channel. I have arrived under the business district. Commander Vindynol: I'm sorry, Commander Balklava isn't available at this moment. I will be giving you the briefing. Hiroko: Yes? Commander Vindynol: You will make for the largest residential district, the Osaka District, as fast as possible, taking out any suits you may encounter on the way. That is :: unngghhh :: all. Hiroko: What was that? Commander Vindynol: Oh.. well, you see.. Commander Balklava isn't currently available because.. he is suffering from a heart attack. Hiroko: Oh, I see. I'm out. Azrael - 17 Mar 2003 09:42 pm Post subject: Mukuro saw the Gravitron and ATWMs fired and was, needless to say, caught a bit off-guard. Seeing the NV-MAD7 rush down toward the surface re-focused his thoughts though. He opened the command channel from earlier. Mukuro: All relevant slipgate frigate groups activate! All combat units, commence attack! CS mechs appeared over Earth by the hundreds. Once Mukuro felt confident that his forces could hold their own for a while, he activated Tenshi's TDS and chased after Hiroko. OOC: Worth noting, TDS creates a small but distinct temporal anomaly that would be easily detected by anyone looking for it. Gundam-Ranger-X - 17 Mar 2003 09:47 pm Post subject: Lev had been preparing his old combat uniform for what it was given to him for : Mobile Suit combat. He had been ordered to track down and assist Hiroko. He would also preform a live combat test of his battle system's should there be an engagement. With his skill he would prove to be the better pilot and become the new favorite. * * * His mech had already been loaded into it's drop pod, Lev boarded it and final preperation were completed. The pod blasted out of the Raumhaifish like a bat out of hell and Lev was on his way back to earth. Vyper - 17 Mar 2003 09:59 pm Post subject: Hiroko had began rushing straight down the streets, heading towards the Residential District. Computer: Pursuing Anomaly Detected. Hiroko: Identify anomaly. Computer: Estimated Time.. Two minutes. Assign target? Hiroko: Yes. Hiroko looked in the dark, lit streets of the underworld of Neo Tokyo. There were people moving about on the neon-lit sidewalks. Mukuro descended so that he was now heading straight for the considerably faster Hotaru 2. He could see the bright flare from his boosters. He turned up the power of his boosters. Computer: Firewall broken. Identity.. Mukuro of... Anomaly Guild. Hiroko: Ahh.. thats who it is. Hiroko looked back and pointed the megaparticle beam cannon at Mukuro. 'Target lock... 5..4..3..2..' Mukuro was moving from side to side. '1234..3..2..1..' Hiroko: Fire. A huge beam was cast at Mukuro. He only saw it a second before it arrived, and barely avoided, skidding into the ground, emitting sparks everywhere. Hiroko: Well then.. I'll give him something more to worry about. Hiroko withdrew his beam cannon and pulled out his beam sabres, pulling them through the huge, tall buildings on either side of the road. What trailed behind Hiroko was a huge mess of collapsing buildings, making the road all but impassible. DeathscytheX - 18 Mar 2003 12:22 am Post subject: IC: Rob sees the pod eject from the ruamhaifisch, he knew what it was, he flew around it and decloaked for a slight second slashing it with the anti-matter staff gouging its haul and cloaks again. The damage was critical and Lev couldnt enter the earths atmosphere because of it. Vindynol: Lev, return to ship for repairs Lev: dammit what the hell was that?! I need to be down there! Vindynol: and so you will.. but not like that Lev: this type of damage will take hours to fix.. just give me a new pod. Vindynol: Im sorry there are none that can hold your suit. repairs will only take about an hour, we will have every tech work on it. Rob sees the pod turn around and slowly head back towards the Raumhaifisch Rob: now now, cant be in a big rush now can we? You will get your turn.. but right now youll have to wait in line. the UX heads for Neo Tokyo Azrael - 18 Mar 2003 01:18 am Post subject: OOC: Ehm...with TDS, Tenshi would've been a lot faster than that, but oh well. IC: After hitting the ground, Mukuro recovered quickly and continued pursuing Hiroko. Tenshi cleared out its obstacles with a few well-timed rift mines and sent one to Hiroko. Mukuro: Don't think you can get rid of me so easily. Now, let's see how you work under pressure. As the first mine exploded near the Hotaru 2, Mukuro sent out three more. Two of these shot past Hiroko's mech and one connected, causing a little damage and throwing it against a building. The two remaining mines hit another group of buildings in front of Hotaru, creating much the same situation that Mukuro had just been in. Gundam-Ranger-X - 18 Mar 2003 06:39 am Post subject: Lev got back to the Raumhaifish and got out of the pod. He didn't like this. He was waitsting his talents on this stupid battle staition. He walked over to some pilots who were talking, they didn't seem to notice him. Pilot1: 'Man that Lev guy is such a wanabee. He says he's the best pilot in the IE but he can't even find the balls to join a battle.' The other pilots all joined in a laughter that angered Lev even more. At that point he taped the pilot's shoulder. Lev: 'Might I inquire as to wich mobile suit is yours.' The pilot pointed to one beeing repared. 'Thank you very much.' Lev walked back to his mech and forced his way out of the broken pod. He grabed the annoying pilot's ms and made his way to the launching platform. He blasted out of the station and headed twoards earth again. Vindynol: 'What are you doing !' Lev: 'Improvising.' He turned off the comm so as to not be bothered again. He began re-entry and used the MS he grabed as a heat sheild. It worked for the most part and when the 'sheild' finaly did explode, Lev had made it most of the ay through the atmosphere. He cleared it without heating up beyond safe parameters. He had made it back home after all these years. Vyper - 18 Mar 2003 01:20 pm Post subject: Hiroko cringes. Hiroko: So you want to fight eh..Stage 2! Transformations begin much the same as what occured on Polaris Prime, and the Hotaru 2 had once again became the Burning Crimson suit of once before. Mukuro: What the.. Computer: Detecting Unit Statistics.. Strength: 90 Speed: 100 Synchrozation: 85 Attack Potential: 100 Mukuro: ..I'm going to need to call in Denethor... sh-!! Mukuro looks to see Hiroko pointing his Hyper Particle Beam Cannon at him, and a large beam charging at the front. Electricity cackles from the focal point. -----Meanwhile---- Vindysil: That moron.. that suit was undergoing durability enhancements on the legs.. he'll never be able to land. How much longer until we fire the Gravitron Cannon? Operator: Forty-Eight seconds. Vindysil: Very good. Hiroko! Hiroko: Tccht..BOOM.. Yes? Vindysil: I want you in that Residential District in forty-three seconds! Get going now!! Hiroko: Affir-ah crap!

The UX stops decloaks and turns up toward the sky the cross hairs light up the monitors. swarmers exit out of the UX's ports the nukes explode in the atmosphere sending ionic particles everywhere distoring all radar communications with any ships outside of earth to neo-tokyo and all weaponry lock systems. Vindysil: Report! Operator: they were all... stopped.. Vindysil: what?! impossible.. fire more! Operator: We can no longer get an accurate reading wed hit other cities waisting nukes.. the ionic distortion is too great. it probably wont clear for a few months.. the only way we can attack is if we went to the surface.. even then using nukes at that close of range would inflict damage to the ship from the mere shockwaves hypershield or not. Vindysil: damnit! who is responsible for this?! its like they know everything were gonna do!! set up relay stations in east china and neo USSR so we can keep communitcations with our units.

Vyper - 18 Mar 2003 06:06 pm Post subject: The Raumhaifisch enters the atmosphere, and suddenly it appears the sky is on fire from the atmospheric resistance. As soon as it breaks through the guns begin firing everywhere, tearing down buildings and mobile suits incoherently and frenetically. Commander Vindysil: All suits deploy!! The entire payload of 360 suits tear out of the 30 hangars on the Raumhaifisch. Commander Vindysil: Send out seismic mines. Huge boxes the size of cars rain out of the hull and jet off to different parts of Neo Tokyo, and latch onto the streets. They explode and make 300 foot long faults wherever they explode. Operator: Mega Particle Beam Turrets prepared. Commander Vindysil: Very well. Fire at will. They will now see the true power of the Raumhaifisch.

Thought the 'boom' was mech exploding and the second comment was something else. At least I read it this time. IC: Mukuro sees the transformed Hotaru 2 aiming at him and kicks the temporal distortion up to 240%, barely giving him time to dodge most of the beam. Tenshi's left side takes noticable damage, and Mukuro curses under his breath. He glances at his mechs monitors and then rushes at Hiroko with sabers drawn. Hiroko parries and counters, and the two commence melee combat at relatively equal speeds. Earthquakes and explosions can be heard in the distance. Gundam-Ranger-X - 18 Mar 2003 09:23 pm Post subject: Caball: 'Error, left leg severly damaged, unable to land, activating hover mode.' Revolution Massacre's thrusters on it's thighs kick in and the mech hovers a few feet off the ground. (Like Vayate and Mercrius) Lev: 'Caball locate Hiroko's mech.' Caball: 'Searching...................... Possible match found.' Lev: 'Possible match ?' Caball: 'It has a similar signiture but with variations, shall I set a course ?' Lev: 'Dja.' Lev pondered what he said for a moment, it had been long sice he had last used his native toungue. Caball: 'Initiating flight mode. Standby.' And with that the mechs main verniers powered up and the mech took flight, heading to where Hiroko was. Vyper - 19 Mar 2003 12:24 am Post subject: Hiroko pulls out his beam katars and blocks Mukuro's attacks. Hiroko slashes at the chest, but is quickly caught by Mukuro. Hiroko: You shall face the fate of your beloved friend Rob Opsolous!! Hiroko slashes with his free arm, which is caught as well. Mukuro: It doesn't seem like I'm doing so bad right now.. Hiroko: :: laughter :: Hiroko quickly kicks the Tenshi across the helmet, and knocks out the sensors, without Mukuro having a clue what happened. Mukuro: What the.. Hiroko makes a quick flinch in the guard and dodges the beam sabre which was no longer stopped, and strikes the Tenshi in the side. Mukuro: Recover freaking sensors!! Mukuro thrusts backwards and Hiroko pursues. Mukuro: Activate heat sensors. The heat comes on as usual, but because of the Hotaru 2 : S2 (stage 2)'s high heat output level, he isn't able to get a decent lock. Hiroko begins thrusting towards Mukuro at a faster pace and is quickly gaining on him. Mukuro hears the increasingly loud boosters. Mukuro: Fine.. sonar. A blue map comes up and clearly displays Hiroko. Hiroko begins circle-strafing around Mukuro. Mukuro deploys missiles, and chase Hiroko. Hiroko: What the...how'd he get a lock!!?? Hiroko boosts straight up into the air, being pursued by the missiles. Mukuro points his beam cannon at Hiroko's thruster backpack. Computer: Lock in 5........4.......3..............2................................ Mukuro: Crap!! It's getting slower because the sonar ping is becoming greater! Most of the missiles pursuing Hiroko veer slightly off course and collide with buildings causing them to collapse. Mukuro's Targeting Computer:1......................................Lock Broken. Mukuro: What!!!??? Mukuro had been staring anxiously at the lock timing he hadn't realized what was going on in the sky, and saw the crashing buildings heading straight for him. The Hotaru 2 and the three remaining missiles broke out of the Neo Tokyo skyline. Hiroko looked back and saw them. One ran out of fuel and fell back towards the ground. He opened the vulcan cannons and nailed the other two. Azrael - 19 Mar 2003 01:19 am Post subject: Again, Mukuro increased the power of the temporal distortion field and barely had enough time to dodge. He followed Hiroko up and out of the city. Mukuro: You will not escape me, Hiroko. Tenshi's sensors came back online as the fighters locked once again. This time, Mukuro ended it by shooting at Hotaru 2's right arm, and as it buckled he slashed down and caught the leg. He failed to recover his position in time, however, and as he turned he felt one of Hiroko's katars go through Tenshi's chest near the neck. Mukuro could do nothing to stop his mech from shutting down, first the higher-energy systems, then the monitors, and finally life support. Tenshi's eyes went black and the mech fell back to the ground. Vyper - 19 Mar 2003 01:40 am Post subject: Hiroko: You fool.. Hiroko let the suit fully engulf the arm. Hiroko grins and activated his anti-matter katar once again. Mukuro's Computer: ANOMALY DETECTED. UNKOWN ENERGY PATTERNS IN BIOCIRCUTRY. The Tenshi began twitching wildly, like a dead wasp does after it had been hit. Hiroko: Haha.. you fool. The com link that had been left open with Mukuro froze, kackled, and turned to a 'No Signal Message'. The legs curled up towards the air. Mukuro laid in the cockpit helpless. Energy occasionally bridged inside from various electrical components. Hiroko took the other beam katar and worked his arm out, at prepared for the Coup De Grace. Commander Vindysil: Hiroko. Hiroko: :: sigh :: What now? -_- Commander Vindysil: We want him alive. Hiroko: Fine, fine.. DeathscytheX - 19 Mar 2003 02:48 am Post subject: IC: Suddenly the Hotaru-2 was jolted violently towards the ground, Hiroko thrusted to break the fall and gently lands on the ground, before him the Tenshi floats a few feet off the ground. The Ultra X uncloaks revealing the mystery of its floating, but it drops it to the ground uncaringly. Hiroko: what is this? Rob:… Hiroko: Pilot Identify yourself.. Rob:…. Hiroko: then you are an enemy! The Hotaru-2 charged at the UX and Rob side stepped him and right at that moment thrusted his fist into the Hotaru-2s shoulder slamming it into a building. Hiroko quickly turns and fires but at nothing, the UX was no longer there. Hiroko: what?! Hiroko gets up and sees the UX where the Hotaru-2 was when they first met face to face. Hiroko charged again with its beam katars and was speechless as he was blocked by a staff that came out of nowhere. Hiroko: where the hell did that come from?!?!?! Hiroko started slashing wildly at the UX as Rob blocked all his attacks with the staff, Hiroko got sick of this and blasted backwards and started firing Vulcan cannons, the UX’s hypershield went up and deflected the assault as the chainguns extended out of the UX’s arms. The UX fires swarmers but Hiroko dodges by thrusted upwards and throws them off with lock jammers and they demolish many of the buildings around the area. Hiroko: This guy doesn’t seem to be protecting the city.. what does he want? Before Hiroko could finish his thought the UX fired chaingun rounds at him nailing his chest, Hiroko straffed and dodged but he couldn’t get away from the assault of projectiles no matter how fast he moved, he fired his particle cannon as the UX and it was dodged easily. Hiroko: WHAT IS THIS?! No one can accurately aim at my speeds! Who the hell is this guy. Rob: you are too slow.. *soft evil chuckle* Hiroko:…. Who is this? Rob: A ghost.. The UX fires 3 ion missiles and Hiroko tries to dodge them, but to no avail they were locked on to his ionic trails, the Hotaru-2 flew through the city through buildings and alleys trying to evade the missiles, they just wouldn’t give up they turned corners and followed Hiroko stride for stride. Thinking quickly he throws a beam katar at the closest missile hitting it, it explodes and the shockwave makes hiroko lose control skidding on the ground for a few feet, another missile gets pushed into a building while another wildy fly’s strait up and back down 5 feet from Hiroko, blowing up rattling Hiroko. Hiroko gets back up and when the dust clears the UX stands in front of him once more. Hiroko bursts around him and picks up his beam katar and charges the UX once more, but evades into an ally around a building and on the other side coming out behind the UX, he slashes but once again is blocked by the anti-matter staff, the UX boosts up into the air and the staff separates into to rods as Hiroko follows, they begin a wildly fast melee but during the middle of it the Rob kicks the Hotaru-2 in the chest sending it flying away. Hiroko extremely pissed, regains control. Hiroko: THAT IS IT!!!!!! RRRRULLAAAAHH!!!!! The Hotaru-2 transforms into its perfect form and bursts at the UX again, Rob matches his melee speed once more, Hiroko blasts the UX in the face with Vulcan cannons, but quickly the UX grabs the Hotaru-2s head and slings it down and fires swarmers. The Hotaru-2 zips out of there way once more and they all hit the ground slinging dust everywhere. Rob persues Hiroko easily catching up to him, the Hotaru-2 turns around only to be rammed into by the UX slaming through a warehouse, Hiroko boosts upward out through the roof and the UX continues to follow. About 200 miles in the air they split into opposite directions, Hiroko powers up his particle cannon and fires, Rob fires the XPR and the beams collide exploding violently the shockwave crushes buildings below. While Rob watches the explosion the Hotaru-2 puts the UX in a full nelson. Hiroko: HA! Now you are mine you fool.. Rob soft chuckle turned into loud laughter, Hiroko became annoyed at why he was laughing, Rob activated the hypershield stripping off the frontal armor off the Hotaru-2 sparks flew everywhere in a bright blinding show of light as Hiroko was violently pushed out of the full nelson. Rob flys around and grabs one of the wings of the NV-MAD7 and rips it off like paper. Not paying attention to the armor warnings Hiroko flips around swings at Rob and the UX catches the arm and crushes it like a soda can. Sparks and eletic bolts fly out of the arm and the hand wildly twitches. The Hotaru-2 loses its form and goes back to its original state. Dangling helplessly from Robs clutch. Rob: Don’t u know who I am? Hmhehehhm. Hiroko: Impossible! I killed you! I watched you DIE! Rob: Did you think you could kill me? My my.. look at you, you pathetic bastard.. you traitor.. sellout.. I could kill you right now! The UX slams its fist into the chest making a big indent shorting out all the monitors on the Hotaru-2 leaving Hiroko blind as he started bleeding from the forhead. Rob: what would Auriana think of you? You betrayed her.. and she thought you loved her.. Suddenly flashes of a beautiful girl appear in Hiroko’s head, he grabs it in pain.. The UX claps the Hotaru-2 by the head and 700,000 volts of electric charge flow through through it frying every circuit and gismo. Hiroko gets shocked violently from sparks that jump off the panels as they are attracted by the metallic implants in his head. Visions of the past fly around randomly not making any sense and he blacks out as the UX stops. Rob crushes the Hotaru-2s head unit and kicks the body ripping the head off and the Hotaru-2 plummets to the ground. Rob rushes down with the anti-matter staff to deliver the death blow but then Auriana flashed in his head. Auriana: please.. don’t kill him.. for me? Rob stops.. you are lucky I promised her I wouldn’t kill you.. the UX slams the staff down on the lower torso separating the legs from the body. Picking up what was left he rips the arms off and throws the headless half of torso in the air, powering down the staff he whacks it like a ball sending it flying a few 100 feet into a building. UXC: Revolution Massacre is in the district. Rob: hmmm.. maybe another time Lev.. The UX cloaks and flys off Vyper - 19 Mar 2003 03:34 am Post subject: Operator: COMMANDER VINDYSIL!! THE HOTARU 2 HAS DROPPED FROM THE RADAR!! Commander Vindysil: Very well. :: Vindysil cannot hide his giddy grin :: Mission is almost a success. Finish up and pull ou- Commander Balklava: Commander Vindysil! You shall leave the IE at once or will suffer as all of the innocent lives in Neo Tokyo have!! Armed guards flank Commander Balklava and point their guns at Commander Vindysil. Commander Vindysil: Commander Balklava.. how could you.. :: Commander Vindysil slowly reaches into his pocket :: Commander Balklava: Do you take me for some kind of fool? Commander Vindysil activates a remote. Sentry turrets quickly pop out of the ceiling and floor tiles, but the operators had anticipated him and quickly disengaged them as they were activated. Commander Vindysil was torn to death by the automatic weapons. Operator: Sir, Hiroko has dropped from the radar. We detected stress on the armor before his dissapearance. Commander Balklava: :: sigh :: Hiroko.. he wouldn't be in whatever situation he is in now had it not been that that corrupted commander was scared of him. Send out a search party. Put me on the loudspeakers. Giant speakers fold out from the Raumhaifisch. Commander Balklava on Loudspeaker: Attention, Neo Tokyo. We, the IE, are surrendering from this battle. We are sorry about any loss, and are now leaving. We too are experiencing great loss, and are sending out rescue vehicles for civilians and our personnel alike. Due to conditions they are without consorts, so please do not attack them and let those suffer. That is all - we are pulling out. --------Meanwhile---------- The mangled Hotaru 2 lay crippled among the debris of many fallen buildings, and was partially covered by rubble. Hiroko [In Comatose]: Hiroko: You stay here! I need to save the six other suits! Rob: Hurry - it's going to explode soon. ...traitor? Mukuro: Hello, I am Mukuro, and am head of a guild. We are at the location of the ruins of the Ozma base, and saw you as the only signal within range. ...who am I? Girl: Sorry about what happened earlier. My name is Auriana and I am a Polaris Psyker. ...who is she? Hiroko: Im coming out Rob: No. keep firing at the ship ...isn't he my enemy? Standing out on the balcony, Hiroko looked at the vast cityscape. He saw skyscrapers stretch for miles, and ships slowly flying over them. ...did I destroy beauty? Hiroko: I have an advanced suit and would like to help in the battle. Are there any preparation rooms? ...why was I helping the enemy? Hiroko: Hatsuma, you should have never joined the IE. Hatsuma: Hiroko, fool! It doesn't matter if I like it or not! It is unthinkable to rebel from the IE! Why die because of a government change?? ...why did I hate my brother? .... we could make a new Polaris homeworld. Hurry, Hiroko, race up the tower! We'll be fine! Activate it and jump in before you activate!! Hiroko: Ahh!! Let go of me!!!! Hiroko is slammed into a device with recesses large enough for a human body. Hiroko screams and kicks helplessly to no avail, and is locked in. Commander of Liberator: I am Hans. I will be leading an interrogation. I do suggest you cooperate. ...is that Vindysil? They walk through the double doors, only to see Hatsuma sneering with his pistol drawn. He shoots through their foreheads, leaving a trail of blood on the floor. He cocks his gun again and begins walking towards Hiroko's cell with his evil sneer. ...my brother would never do that.. Hiroko had hurtled through space not being able to hear anything. There was no sound insulation, and the boosters were extremely loud. All of a sudden, he stopped moving. He heard the cargo pod door open. He then could barely hear voices, as his hearing had turned horrible after the thrusters. He found his box being lifted, and carried around. Several minutes later the top was opened, and he saw blinding lights, and he was surrounded by doctors everywhere, and two of what seemed to be computer scientists. Several guards threw him on a bed, and he was tightly buckled down. ...what is going on.. Strider Hiryu - 19 Mar 2003 09:17 am Post subject: OOC: Holy shit. I'm gone for one day and this happens. Shit I'm a little behind. Ohwell. IC: The SS decloaks behind Mukuro. Denethor: Hey in there you okay. What the hell is that? Denethor looks up to see the UX. Denethor: Holy shit thats one bad ass looking suit. Pilot identify yourself. Are you friend or foe? The SS's eye suddenly flare a deep crimson red. Denethor: SS whats wrong? SS: Aird detected coming back to earth. Its resonating with me. I do not understand whats going on. Denethor: Don't tell me this is part of Alton's sick plan. Shut down now SS. I will manually pilot the suit. It means losing my psychic connection with you but I can't have anything happening to you. SS: As you wish. Shutting down. The SS's AI shuts down. Denethor: What could he want? Anyways I really want to know if you are friend or foe. I have never seen a suit like yours. The suit does look familiar though in some odd way. It almost reminds me of the X. Vyper - 19 Mar 2003 10:44 am Post subject: An IE dropship detects Hiroko and Mukuro, and picks Hiroko up. Assistant: Sir, that is one of our most wanted down there. Pilot: I shall pick him up as well. Medical Officer: Sir!! Hiroko is in a coma!! Azrael - 19 Mar 2003 11:26 am Post subject: Mukuro came to and opened the cockpit with emergency release. Mukuro: How...interesting. I'm alive. He saw the torso of Hotaru 2 a little distance down the street. 'Yes...most interesting. I'll have to look into who did that.' He heard thrusters and saw the back of an IE dropship shortly afterward, and decided it would be a good idea to get away. Besides, he needed to make a call, and he didn't have a long-range com. He found a suitable building nearby and began climbing. Several floors up he found a room with one. He broke the window and walked in, much to the dismay of the residents. Mukuro: I need to use your com. Give me a minute and I'll be out of here. They didn't listen of course, and the woman ran out of the room as her husband pulled a gun. Man: Get out! Get out now! Mukuro took the gun from him and threw it out the window. The man ran at him, and Mukuro tossed him aside. Mukuro: Just fvckin chill, dude. He went over to the com and set it to the CS command frequency. Mukuro: How many suits are left on the field?...ok. Send a few support crews. Can you see where my mech is?...K, good. I'm just a few buildings down from that. I'll need someone to pick me up real quick....Yeah, make sure it's supported....You saw that too, huh? I was out when it happened, so I'll need to see a report on it when I get back. He switched it back to the frequency it was on and walked out through the normal door. Tired of climbing, he took the elevator the rest of the way up the building. Gundam-Ranger-X - 19 Mar 2003 09:08 pm Post subject: Lev had finaly made to Tokyo, where the battle had been taking place. The mech hovered a few feet off the ground. 'What the battle's over !?' He was rather angry at having missed another engagement. 'Damnit ! Damn this slow piece of crap !' He slamed his fist against the control pannel. DeathscytheX - 19 Mar 2003 10:10 pm Post subject: IC: Rob having a change of heart decloaks behind Lev. Rob: you want a fight.. try me Lev turns to see the UX Lev: who the hell are you? Rob: Just a shadow of a emeny you have seeked. Lev pulls up his Particle Projection Sniper Cannon but before he knew it half of it laid on the ground as the UX twirls its anti-matter staff and then points it in the RMs face. Rob: you're skills are weak... and I thought Hiroko was easy to defeat. you're personal quest to destory me ends now. Lev: Rob Opsulous!!!! Lev backs up and starts firing at Rob but they all deflected before it reaches the suit as the reddish orb flashes everytime its hit. One of the chainguns extend from the right arm and begins pounding on the RM's haul slicing through it. Lev straffs into an alley to regain his composer. Lev: impossible.. he is suppose to be dead.. suddenly a capsule falls into the alley and explodes and flames go everywhere. getting on the RM's right leg melting the armor. (napalm) Swarmers pound the building leveling it, and the RM is thrown into the other building. It was all happening so fast.. the UX was relentless in its assualt.. This was not Rob Opsulous' style of fighting. Suddenly the staff brusts throught the wall the RM was on missing its head unit by inches. Lev boosts up in the air but Rob easily outmatched its speed and got up in Levs face. Rob: you suit is not designed for melee, that is why you keep backing up from me *laughter* Lev continues to back up to get a good shot at the UX but Rob stays in his face, Lev gets extremely pissed and fires his dual gatling cannon pushing rob out of his face, and then fires long range missiles Rob fires more swarmers taking them all out, then fires an ion missile, Lev takes it out with his beam sniper and stops the missile, Rob charges through the blinding explosion and grabs the arm which holds the beam sniper and then slams the UX's palm into the RM's torso. Lev watches as the arm unit gets ripped off his suit and thrown aside like a peice of garbage. Rob fires his laser cannons knocking Lev out of the air and crashing into a nearby lake. the UX dives into the lake. Lev was waiting for him and fires his dual gatling cannons again but Rob quickly straffed out of the way and bolted toward Lev and jams the anti-matter staff into the torso straight into the core of the Revolution Massacre. Lev loses all power except communications. UXC: Rob the Ruamhaifisch is drawling near this sector Rob: I should kill you.. but in your case I guess it would be better you let you live in shame with your defeat... You failed against me.. just like the rest of you IE scum.. Rob kicks the RM off his staff and deactivates it and brusts out of the lake and leaves earth. Vyper - 20 Mar 2003 12:36 am Post subject: Medical Officer: Sir, he can be revived. Commander Balklava: Very well. ----Thirty Minutes Later---- Hiroko woke up to see two strange similar devices laying next to his head. Medical Officer: Hiroko, Commander Balklava has told me to tell you the following.. you will have a one day break, and in efforts to recover, we will be sending you to Crest Headquarters to test out new mechs and run through advanced training missions based on collected mission data. DeathscytheX - 20 Mar 2003 01:09 am Post subject: IC: Rob: Computer... acitivate the autopilot on the Polarian Royal Cruiser we left in Antartica, set its corse back to Polaris I with my regards. Im sure Auriana will need it back.. its not your local spice frieghter after all. UXC: done. Rob: excellent. Rob uploads a message in the computer banks confirming that he kept his promise and didnt kill hiroko but talking sense into him seemed to be pointless. the UX drifts in space with no purpose, Rob rests from the double duty he performed. cyberlink - 20 Mar 2003 08:54 am Post subject: OOC: HOLY SHITE, gone for 2 days (well a bit long) and the entire story has totally shifted tracks. lol. ah well. IC: With the Battle for Neo-Tokyo finally over Rei watches from afar as the IE desperse into the black of Space, looking at the Earth he could see a red glow coming from part of the city that hadbeen pounded by blasts from the IE. Rei saw everything, he new what side he must be on, he knew what he had to do. MMI:* Nural reconstruction compleate. interface awaiting authorisation.* Rei: nural reconstruction?? what the hell? MMI:*devices found imbedded in the celebral augmentation upgrade cylinders were removed and as a result memory was lost, Nural reconstruction commenced automatically to regain the lost memory, shall i engage the uplink to upload the information.?* Rei: So I can finally remember where I come from, what I was doing in the IE and How It came to all this..... Yes engage Nural Upload. Rei felt a sharp prick in the back of his head as a Nural upload cord broke through his skin and locked into the upload port. Rei suddenly blacked out for two seconds and Reawoke screaming. Rei: araghaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! WHAT THE HELL!! ARAGHHHHHH!!! MMI:* Rei please calm down, adminetering countermeasures. The medical unit of the Austoria administered a drug into Rei's blood streem, Rei began to feel much better and calmer. MMI:* welcome back rei.* Rei: MMI why didnt you tell me before,? MMI:*I was afrade that you were to under the influence of the IE to have believed me. So i took my chances and undertook the celebral reconstruction my self* Rei: well im very gratefull. Show the stats of NEO -TOKYO after battle 1067, MMI:*accessing Battle statistics log.... Processing.... displaying.* Rei: 57% dammage, 147684 wounded, 90567 Feitalities! Show stats on opposing forces, MMI:*contact with Mukuro lost at 12:35 hours, Contact made with CS COmmand at 12:40 at almost same location. suit UX un-harmed, Denethor still in action and in region, IE forces, Lev imobilised on Earth at location JCP-345-567 NEO-TOKYO, As for our friend Hiroko that we followed here, there is no sign of him, i cannot either conferm or deny the distrustion of Hiroko.* Rei: Access the communication Frequency used to contact tghe CS Command at Mukuro's last known position. MMI:*asscessing, Frequency locked an 10384MZ* REI: open communication channel at that Frequency, Hello.... is there anyone there? please respond..... Man: WHO THE HELL IS THIS!! IS THIS SOME SORT OF SICK JOKE! Rei: i mean no harm sir, sorry to disturb you. I am Reiouku Denami, Pilot of the Austoria Ultima. former Leutennant of the CS Rebellion forces. I recieved a communication from your communication frequency at 12:40 hours. can you please put the person who used the communication device on the line? Man: sorry no can do bud. some crazed dick burst in here and demanded to use the Communicator. I refused and then he attacked me! Anyway, he managed to use it and then run off toward the elevator. Rei: thanks anyway. oh and on behalf of the CS COmmand I apoligise for my friends actions. --*communication End*-- Rei: MMI scan the Area for Mukuros biocentenial Life signs. MMI: scanning, Biocentineal Signs for Mukuro found of floor 1563 of the JCS25 residential block appartments. Rei: try and contact him.... MMI:Cannot establish communication link with Mukuro* Rei: well we will have to go in and talk to him face to face. I bet he needs a helping hand. Not to mention his suit as well. MMI can you tell me If the Austoria's Nano repair system can repair other suits as well? MMI:* the Nanno-repair system is composted of .... Rei: dont give the whole entire log, just tell me what i need to know! MMI:* Yes the NANNO- REPAIR system can be used to repair other suits on the Vacinity.* Rei: good just in case. The Austoria U decloacks and heads to Mukuro's last known location. Maybe he could tell Rei where Hiroko had gone and weather he was alive, and the same with Rob. Also maybe he could tell him who the pilot of that strange suit was, the UX...... Strider Hiryu - 20 Mar 2003 09:32 am Post subject: Denethor: Well now this ought to be fun. There on the moon. Alton has returned. *Denethor activates the TDW reactor and jumps to the moon* Denethor: Where are you Alton? Alton: Right here. *the Aird decloaks* Denethor: Why is your suit resonating with mine? Alton: They were created to do that once you discovered your true self. The bad thing about it is that the AI will be erased if its turned on in the vacinity of the Aird's AI and vice versa. Denethor: So your saying the Aird isn't online? Alton: Yes now shall we have our fight now. Denethor: If you wish for your death to come now then yes. Alton: Well if it means my death then so be it. *The Aird launches off one of its Fusion Grenades at the SS* Denethor: Shit fushion grenades. *Denethor activates the Shadow Shield and the blast is absorbed* Denethor: Alright. So this is how we're going to play. Well without the SS AI this is gonna be a difficult battle. Funnels launch and destroy him. *All 24 Shadow Funnels launch and swarm the Aird pounding it left and right* Alton: 24 of them!!!!!!!!!! Hows this possible? No mind can possibly control this many. Denethor: Don't you remember the little psychoframe enhancement you designed. It has increased my psychic potential. I can now control 24 of them. They will cut you to pieces. Now how about we finish this. *The missle pods on the SS launch and seek out Alton. Once they have him in their sights they launch a total of 8 anti-matter missles. All collide with Alton rendering his suit useless* Alton: Damnit. I can't die like this without my plans going through. Aird reactivate yourself. Aird: Reactivated. What do you need? Alton: Destroy the virus within my network and download it all into the SS right now. I will not let my ideas die now. Aird: Doing it now. Note I only have 5 min before total AI erase. *the Aird uploads a bunch of data into the SS in about threee min* Alton: Well Denethor you have accomplished what you wanted. I will never be seen again. Aird destroy yourself now. We shall go down together. Aird: As you wish. Denethor: No wait Alton I just have one question. Why did the IE destroy our planet? Alton: The info is located in the info I uploaded into the SS but lets just say that Terra Vedra was............................ *the Aird explodes leaving a huge crater in the moon. After this the SS reactivates itself* SS: Denethor whats going on? Why do I have this massive amount of data located within my harddrive? Denethor: Alton did that. Search through it and find out what his plans were and why the IE destroyed my homeplanet? SS: As you wish. May I ask why you are in a depressed mood? Denethor: Well seeing as how we were the last two of my race its only fitting that I would. Seeing as how now I am the only Vedran alive. Alright find Spike and Geddoe. We're shacking up with them until we can sort through all of this and reunite with some of the resistance fighters. SS: Right. They are currently on Mars. Shall I jump there? Denethor: Yes do so. *the TDW reactors activate and the SS disappears from the moon* DeathscytheX - 20 Mar 2003 12:21 pm Post subject: OOC: cyberlink... no one knows what the UX is yet only Hiroko and Lev even know Im still alive.. Vyper - 20 Mar 2003 09:49 pm Post subject: OOC: Guys I'm not going to be able to post for two days; I'm heading home. Hiroko sat patiently in the passenger shuttle headed for Tau Ceti and looked out the window. The ship began to shake, and they began entering the atmosphere. He quickly broke through to see a dark industrial world. It was disgusting to see. He didn't even bother looking for awhile. Pilot: Now arriving near Crest Headquarters. Hiroko looked out and saw that the huge, dark buildings had receded to show a lush, beautiful land. The entire monstrosity of Crest Headquarters had modern architecture. The ship slowly descended onto a launchpad, which was conveniently right outside of his... Hiroko: SUITE!!?!? Hiroko walked in to find a huge, deluxe room, with the best entertainment technology to the date. Vyper - 20 Mar 2003 10:01 pm Post subject: Edit: Oops, double post. DeathscytheX - 21 Mar 2003 01:50 am Post subject: IC: Rob: dang this is boring.. might as well go back to Polaris I to show Auriana Project X.. Rob easily catches up to the royal crusier and lands on the top of its haul standing with is arms folded like Mercinary Tao on a flying post. Strider Hiryu - 21 Mar 2003 06:10 pm Post subject: The SS appears on Mars a few seconds after disappearing from the moon. SS: Denethor we have arrived on Mars. Would you like me to start searching for Spike? Denethor: Yes please. Whats on Denethor's thoughts: So this was his plan all along. Well then I might as well carry it out for him then. To think that he wasn't the bad guy after all. I shall kill this man once I learn who he is. I have committed the most hayness of crimes. I should have listened to Alton before I killed him. I truly am the last of my kind. That would explain my extrodinary psychic abilities. Well atleast I can try and make up for it by carrying out his plan. Now if only Rob were still alive I could probably get the info I needed from him. SS: I have located Spike. He is currently 10 km away at the capital. Hes in one of the hangers. Denethor: Well lets head there then. SS: Whats on your mind? Denethor: Lets just say I'm grieveing for a lost friend and a false enemy. SS: Alright then. I shall leave you alone until we get there. Denethor: Thanks. I don't know what I would do without you. SS: Well you certainly wouldn't be wanted now would you. Denethor: True well lets get going. The SS takes off and heads for the Capital. DeathscytheX - 21 Mar 2003 06:24 pm Post subject: IC: On his way to Polaris the UX console lights up with the mecha status diagram. The right hand highlights on and off as text types under it. Weapon UXPF revived. Rob: huh? whats this?? UXPF? the signal stops and it closes... Polaris can be seen in the distance. Rob: I wonder what that was about? ah well... I have other things to think of right now.. Strider Hiryu - 24 Mar 2003 06:39 pm Post subject: SS: Spike we've arrived at the hanger. Denethor: Thanks. Are they here right now? SS: Bio-scans show no sign of life but this is where they have the ship at. Denethor: Alright lets enter. I need to get some sleep and think over what has happened recently. SS: Right. *the SS enters the hanger and boards the Stalker* Denethor: This is it alright but I wonder where they are. Oh well. *Walks to his quarters and starts to think outloud* Denethor: Of all the people why did Alton have to be on our side. Damn that man. I killed him for nothing and now that man will have his way unless I think of a way to incorporate this new technology into the Shadow Sun but to do that I would have to whipe SS's memory and rebuild the suit. Damnit I can't do it. *Someone knocks on Denethors door* Denethor: Yes who is it. Spike: Its me. Nice to see your back. So may I enter? Denethor: Yea why not. *Spike enters* Spike: So what happened out there? Denethor: Its a long story. *Denethor tells Spike what happened* Spike: Hmm interesting. Would it be alright if I downloaded the info and backed up SS's AI onto the Stalker just in case? Denethor: Sure why not. SS I'm giving Spike permission to back up your AI and all the info on board at the moment. Is that alright with you? SS: If you think its a must then yes. Spike: Alright I'll get to work. *Spike leaves* Denethor: Damn you Alton and damn it all. Why did you have to make me kill you? There was so much I wanted to ask. And as for you Rob why'd you have to go get yourself killed? We still need you for this resistence to work. SS: Denethor I'm sorry to intrude but didn't that suit we noticed above earth remind you of the X? Denethor: As a matter of fact I thought it resembled the X but it looked so different. Oh well. Analyze the schematics on the suit and give me the results later. SS: Right. *Denethor lays down and falls asleep* DeathscytheX - 24 Mar 2003 07:25 pm Post subject: IC: Guard: Miss Auriana, your royal crusier has returned with an evil looking suit on it. Auriana: Huh? Auriana rushes out to see her royal ship and a Mecha near it, the Cockpit opens and Rob jumps out, Auriana looks at his faceless expression. Rob: hes not dead.. I just returned the favor. talking since into him is useless.. If i wouldnt have landed here after the accident I would have killed him with ease. Auriana:.. thank you Rob Rob: I dont see what good this is gonna do.. he knows where this place is.. Rob walks into the estate with Auriana. Auriana: You fail to see how important he is to me? Rob: no I dont. but he isnt the same anymore.. I dont want the Raumhaifisch coming here and screwing up another planet of yours. Thats where Hiroko is stationed Auriana.. the Raumhaifisch, the same thing that caused all that havoc on Polaris Prime, im sure you havent forgoten already. Auriana looked away in pain. Rob: look im sorry.. i just dont want to see that happen again to you and your people.. the monstrousity is completed now, its way more powerful.. your civilization could be whiped out. i saw what it did to Neo Tokyo. Auriana: Do you think Hiroko would attack this place.. just because he changed to the IE do you think he has lost all his feelings for me? Rob: The question is does he even remember the feelings he has for you.. he seems to think I killed his father insted of Hatsuma Auriana: Rob... you dont know our ways.. I love him.. we are destined Rob communicates telepathically Rob *I do know your ways, My dad had a Polarian squad partner that was like an uncle to me* Auriana: ::gasp:: *Then you knew.. that night.. that what we did* Rob: *yes I know, I thought u knew I knew.. i mean if I didnt what If i went out blurting it around* Auriana: anyways back to the point.. there has to be a way to get Hiroko back, there has to be a reason he is like that. Rob: I dont know.. where are u library banks.. the IE has been doing alot of polarian technology lately.. maybe we can find the answer there.. Azrael - 24 Mar 2003 11:01 pm Post subject: From his office over New L.A., Mukuro was going over figures from the battle over Neo-Tokyo. 392 suits destroyed by Raumhaifisch, 183 destroyed by IE mechs, combat stats of Oni mechs versus IE elite... But none of that mattered much. What he really wanted to know was what the hell had ripped up the NV-MAD7. Seeing an analysis of its displayed weapon systems and the video of its performance, he noticed an interesting similarity to Rob's mech...but of course, Rob was dead. Wasn't he? Once the mech cloaked it was impossible to trace, so he would have to find the owner some other way. Mukuro looked out the window and sighed. It was a nice break being back home, but he would have to leave again soon. At least the Skybases were coming along as planned. cyberlink - 25 Mar 2003 07:26 am Post subject: Rei, walks up to the lift and enters. Rei selects the floor that Mukuro was last bio-scaned at. The lift creackes and groans as it makes its way up the lift shaft. Eventually rei exits the lift to be greeted with a fantastic sight. The walls of glass that seperated the building from the forces of nature let in a magnificent glow of neon blue from the opposite building, the outlines of other towers and skyscrapers could be seen in the distance backed with a glow of crimson red form the setting sun. Far in the distance was the Space port. Blinking red and white lights guided the shuttles back to mother earth and Rei suddenly felt right at home... somehow.... Rei walks down the corridor and re-communicates with the Austoria, Rei: which room?? MMI:*occupant Mukuro at office 285* Rei: thanks. Rei approached office 285, he stoped just out side and listned for any movement. He could hear Mukuro inside talking, weather or not he was talking to someone else he could not tell. Rei listned To Mukuro currentley un-aware of his presence. Rei soon learned that he was pondering over that data from the battle. Mukuro seemed to be thinking the same thing he was, Who was the pilot of that mystery Mech and what Kind of mech was it. Rei knocked on the door and waited, He could hear haisty movement inside, as if Mukuro was startled and was searching for something. Rei entered the room and looked around. He couldent see Mukuro so he walked further into the room, Suddenly Rei was struck on the head and he fell to the ground, daized he stood back up and could feel a weapon poised at the back of his head., Mukuro: Identify yourself, what right do you have comeing in here, What is your business!! Rei: wohhh.... calm yourself, mukuro..... Mukuro: Turn around so i can see your face you IE scum. Rei turned around and he could see an expression of supprise fall upon Mukuro's face. Mukuro: what... i mean, how could you... you trator!!! Rei: What are you on about!! Im not part of the IE forces. im with you guys, part of the rebellion... dont you remember! Mukuro: Oh i remember all right, i remember how you said that you will give your life to make sure that the IE forces are defeated, I trusted you...We all did. But now its not to be, say good bye Rei. Mukuro places his finger on the trigger ready to excecute Rei, Rei: MUKURO, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME! IM NOT PART OF THE IE! I ADMIT THAT IT MAY LOOK LIKE IT BY THAT WAY I AM DRESSED BUT YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HAS HAPPENED OVER THAT PAST 5 DAYS! Mukuro: go on...... Rei tells Mukuro what had happened to him and how he was captured by the IE after the battle for Zion. Rei's home world. And how his sister had been taked and imprissoned by the IE grards. Mukuro: Celebral control chips, Damn them.. Id never think that they would resort so such tacktics! Rei: and thats how come i have this IE uniform on! I havent had time to change! Mukuro: phew it smells like it too, go take a shower or something, Rei: thanks, i need it. Laughing, rei sudenly remembers about the Hotaru 2. Rei: oh by the way hows your mech? Mukuro: in ruins, totaly shot. Rei: ah i see, bad encounter with it then. Mukuro: you have a tallent for understatement. Rei: well i can help you there, you see my mech the Austoria Ultra can totally reconstruct it to 99% effiency, the other 1% will be up to you as it will be cockpit modifications. Mukuro: Nano-Repair eh.... well ill think about it. Im just a little sensitive about people messing about with my suit, appart form the trained mechanics of course. Rei: well let me know okay, it could be fixed in 4-5 hours, Which way's the bathroom? DeathscytheX - 25 Mar 2003 08:11 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Nano-Control.... that must be the asnwer Auriana: Nano-Control? what is that? Rob: Its based of the Nano-Comlink probs that are in my head that allows me to talk to you telepathically. but this is a bit different. by running certian eletrical charges you can make the brain alter, you can install things that arent there.. altho they cant remember it in actually memory.. they just know it with there conscience mind. I think that must be what Hiroko has.. they must have captured him somehow. Auriana: Oh Hiroko.......... Rob: *sigh* now its become even more hopeless. you cant talk since into him, u have to get him on a operating table and rip things out of his brain. Auriana: we much capture him.. Rob: its not like we can call the Ruamhaifisch to come drop him off for your local dual you know.. your gonna half to wait this out.. Im not going to go knock on their door and call him out.. I have to check up on someone else. Auriana sees Rob off as he gets in the UX and leaves Polaris. Rob: computer.. locate the Shadow Sun. UX: the Shadow Sun is on mars Rob: thats where we are going. might as well stop by Gordons too while were at it. The UX heads for mars. Azrael - 26 Mar 2003 12:27 am Post subject: OOC: Eh...a few problems. First, please don't involve my character in long, one-sided conversations like that. Also, depending on your version of events Tenshi was impaled or fried, but still fixable given a little time and a repair crew (or in the latter case, auto-repair). Somewhat less important, the sun is almost never visible on Teimas, but oh well. So...picked back up after Rei tells his story. IC: Mukuro: Mind control?! You must truly think me a fool. Rei: Think about it! The IE can stop time and send ships anywhere in an instant, would you put mind control past them?! Mukuro steps back, allowing Rei to get up. 'I shouldn't even be doing this, but because your skills are worth something to me and your story's just this side of plausible, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.' DeathscytheX - 26 Mar 2003 12:49 am Post subject: OOC: yes cyberlink u cant involve charaters in long conversations that arent real people apart of the RPG. its not fair to them for u to say things that force them to do things they dont wish to do. IC: UX: we have arrived on mars Rob: locate the Stalker A dot marks a spot on the mars map, the UX cloaks and heads for the location, it wasnt too far from where gordon was. Rob: we will have to procede with caution.. Denethor doesnt know that Im alive UX: the SS doesnt stand a chance against this unit in its present state. Rob: thats not the deal, we're not going to attack him, his suit may not be project x but according to this he has alot of stuff upgraded on it.. I recommend defense percautions. The UX lands infront of a hangar and decloaks, the hangar bay was open. Denethor woke at all the dust that flew into the hangar, and saw the suit. he ran for the SS but Rob threw out the powered down staff infront of him blocking his path to the SS. Rob: hault Denethor... Denethor: what... that voice.. it cant be. the cockpit opens rob gets on one knee on the platform cockpit door with his arm rested on his knee with a smerk looking down at Denethor. Rob: sorry I been gone for so long.. I kicked satans ass and he sent me back. they both laughed as the martian sunset grazed the horzion. cyberlink - 26 Mar 2003 07:35 am Post subject: OOC: hi guys im back now, just to say that see my mate has made a few cockups on the last few posts. im sorry i didnt tell you that I would be away for a while. I asked my mate to keep posting so i didnt get left behind, its taken me 3 hours to catch up reading all these posts!! It looks like Max has gotten me into somewhat of a difficult position as i dont know where he was taking the story line............... but ill try and figure out something to do. Again sorry for and confuzment and agro Max caused while I was gone. IC: Rei: my skills valuable to you! BAH! I mean you try and get your head round something that you can even totally understand and then try and explain it to someone else to save you own life! Anyway I only came he to heed a warning, I found i file in one of the IE suits that i hacked into 2 days ago, This file came up as i transfered some of the IE com frequencies into my data banks, Ill show you the file. Rei taps a button on his wrist node and shows Mukuro. ---*Display on Node*--- D* L* V* ^* f* m* ACCOMPANIED MUKURO\-^K\'^mP^n\-id ACCURACY \'@KyRIs\-i ACCURATE \'@KyR\-IT ACTIVE \'@KT\-Iv ACTUAL \'@KSu\-UL ACTUALLY \'@KSuUl\-i ADMINISTRATIVE \-@dm\'InIstreX\-Iv ADVANCE \-@dv\'@ns ADVERTISING \'@dvRTYz\-IN AGENCIES \'edZIns\-iz AGENCY \'edZIns\-i AGO \-^g\'o AGREED \-^gr\'id AHEAD \-^h\'Ed AIRPLANE \'ErPlen AIRPORT \'ErPorT ALIVE \-^l\'Yv ALLIES \'@l\-Yz ALONG \-^l\'aN ALTOGETHER \'aLT\-^g\'ED\-R AMIGA \-^m\'ig\-^ ANCIENT \'enS\-InT MUKURO \'@ndZUl\-Is ANIMAL \'@nIm\-UL ANODE \'@nod ANOTHER \-^n\'^D\-R ANXIETY \-@Nz\'YIX\-i ANYBODY \'Enib^X\-i ANYHOW \'En\-ihA ANYONE \'En\-iw^n ANYTHING \'EniH\-IN ANYWAY \'En\-iwe ANYWHERE \'En\-iwEr APPARENT \-^P\'Er\-InT APPLY \-^Pl\'Y APRIL \'ePr\-UL AREA \'Eri\-^ ARGUMENT \'argyUm\-InT ASCII \'@ski ASPECT \'@spEKT ASSOC \-^s\'osi\-ITs ASSOC. \-^s\'osi\-ITs ASSURE \-^S\'R ATARI \-^T\'ari ATLANTA \-@Tl\'@nT\-^ ATMOSPHERE \'@Tm^sfIr AUGUST \'agIsT AUTHORITIES \-^H\'orIX\-iz AUTHORITY \-^H\'orIX\-i AUTOMOBILE \'aX^m\-ob\'iL AVE \'@vIny\-u - --*-- An expression of supprise falls over Mukuro's face.

I got something about a planet and some sort of Nano-Control device. neway, see what you make of it. I have to go now. MMI:* alterations to berometric pressure* Rei: looks like the weather is in for a turn of the worst. Keep in close contact Mukuro. Im going to try and infiltrate the IE forces. And since i fooled you into thinking that i was oin the Ie forces then it shouldent be that hard to fool a lowey guard. Mukuro: but what are you going to do? Rei: Im going to find out why Hiroko has turned and see if he had anything to do with the capture of my sister! But first i must Contact Denethor. Good bye Mukuro, May the light of Zaros prospur your path. AU engage emergence recovery. Rei walks towards the large window and opens it positioning himself on the ledge he gives Mukuro a smile and falls backwards off the building. The AU awaits below and captures Rei in the cockpit and Blasts off into space. Leaving Mukuro to his own thoughts. Strider Hiryu - 26 Mar 2003 08:53 am Post subject: Denethor: God you know its good to see you again Rob. You had us all worried. I just knew that suit I saw in Neo Tokyo reminded me of the X and I knew that only you would be piloting it. SS: Denethor Spike has finished the memory download and AI backup. Denethor: Ah thanks SS. SS: One question: who is that your talking to? Denethor: Oh thats right. Well this is Rob. SS: Oh. Um may I ask why you backed my AI up? Denethor: Cause the new upgrade that you noticed in the info that Alton downloaded into your system says that if I incorporate a few new technologies into you your AI will be erased. That and I have to rebuild the suit and put a new stronger AI in but I can't have you being erased on me since we've been partners for many years now. SS: Oh ok. Rob: What new technologies? Denethor: Something Alton was working on. Its a long story. I'll explain it to you if you have the time. Spike I want you to start making the plans for the new suit. We're going to go through with it. Just remember to transfer all weapon systems and other things from the Shadow Sun over. Spike: As you wish. *Denethor tells Rob the story of the duel between Alton and himself, all the data he recieved, and about the man who caused all of this (though I have yet to think of a name for this person yet), and the bits and pieces of the plan that he knew about* OOC: I'll be posting my new suit either in my next post or the one after that depending on how long we're on Mars. DeathscytheX - 26 Mar 2003 04:23 pm Post subject: IC: Rob looked at the data information. Rob: you know this is very similar stuff to Project X, I think Alton was in charge of the Crest corperations verions of it.. this is just a concept design though I dont think this is the final product. Denethor/Spike: How can you tell? Rob: well when the final product is online to be contructed only 2 copies exist of the blueprints.. one goes into the factory and one goes into the IE's main HQ library. where no one can get to it. I think Alton gave you the last concept before the acutal product so it should be just as good. I do have some spare parts you will need for to build this suit off the Ultra X. Denethor: Ultra X? Rob: yup. that suit.. that is the true Project X that my father built. Oh by the way, i managed to pick up a some data from Neo-Tokyo science department on some new weaponry.. saw a few cool things such as cloaking funnels and a few melee concept weaponry you may be interested in looking into *tosses a mini-disc to spike*, Alton gave you the blue prints, but its always good to modify and upgrade to your peronal level. always have to remember these suit designs are a bit outdated in the weaponry department. Strider Hiryu - 26 Mar 2003 06:34 pm Post subject: Denethor: True. Well this should come in handy. Look into those new cloaking funnels Spike. Those will come in handy with the new suit. Spike: Alright. Those extra parts can be left in the hanger here. It will take awhile to get all this done so if you want you can stay here Rob if you don't got anything to do. Denethor: Good idea. Well I gotta go tell SS all this cause shes gonna be mad when she finds out that she won't be my suits AI anymore. God I fear the reprecutions of that. Spike you think we can make the SS the AI of the Stalker. Spike: Shouldn't be to hard seeing as how the Stalker here has no AI. Denethor: Alright I'll tell her. Get that info back to me soon so I can get this suit finished. I'll be writing the AI program for my new suit if you need me. *Denethor walks over to the SS, boards it, and starts getting to work* Spike: Well Rob as I said your welcome to stay. I would introduce you to our other member of the team but hes out right now. We'll be here for quite awhile revamping the suit so if you have stuff to do don't worry about us cause we'll be staying put. *Spike starts reviewing the data and starts to draw up blueprints for the new suit (which I have humbly named the Defiant)* OOC: Well now I have to do a little revamping and the suit will be posted in my next. If you don't mind DX I'm gonna use a few concepts from your suit to add to mine to make it better the the SS. DeathscytheX - 26 Mar 2003 07:12 pm Post subject: OOC: no prob, the Ultra Hypershield and the Anti-Matter staff is off limites tho . if u wanna use the weapon spawn thats cool. IC: Rob: Well id love to but I have to go *hands spike a card and a map* here take this.. this guy will beable to help u with other parts and ammo, just show him this and he will know who sent you. Spike: Gordon? Rob: yup. Ill catch you guys later. good luck with the new suit. Rob gets in the UX and blasts off at a blinding rate of speed leaving mars. Vyper - 27 Mar 2003 10:10 am Post subject: Hiroko had gone through tough, vigorous training for the past few days. The training was held in simulators with highly accurate and challenging battle data. The 'suit' he was supposedly training in in the simulator, however, made him look horrible. With the NV-MAD7 he began to incorporate time for it to respond. This one responded immediately and he was able to fight much faster than ever before, but when he allowed time, he lagged. Albeit this, he was able to fight much better; one of the scenarios he had been put through many times was his last duel with Rob, and although he still lost, he was putting up much more of a fight than before; one instance of th duel even lasted 37 minutes. Also, he had been training on the data of the first duel with Rob, and he won that effortlessly. He wouldn't be let out of the training facility until he could beat Rob in the second duel in under five minutes, five minutes because he must become proficient to fight the real Rob instead of an AI Incarnate. ----Meanwhile...----- Auriana's Secretary: Miss, we have created a false ID, and you are allowed to enter Crest Headquarters. Maybe you should get your cloak and voice changer, hmm? Auriana: Ahh, yes, I'm sorry Rob. I have much more pressing matters to tend to (hurriedly) Auriana hugs Rob and heads for the Zephyr. DeathscytheX - 27 Mar 2003 03:16 pm Post subject: OOC: 0-o Im not on polaris anymore... IC: Rob thinks to himself in his last battle how effortlessly he defeated some of the best pilots known in the universe.. He understood then why his father never wanted him to use this Suit.. he didnt even have to try with not even half his skill to beat the NV-MAD7. The things he saw, and the quickness in which he could react kinda freaked him out.. how did this system work.. what was it doing to him.. how was it humanly possible to move in outrageous speed and have perfect aim while the opponent moved also. Rob: how is this possible dad? GRR!! WHAT HAVE YOU CREATED THAT YOU WERE SO SCARED OF YOURSELF?!!!!!!!!!! At this outrage the UX's shoulders lost its skull armor and melded into a smooth sphere and spikes formed up from it like a mace while 2 foot spikes erected from the knuckles (equivalent of 1 inch on a human hand with brass knuckles) spikes poped out the shin guards also. Rob: huh? what is this? *monitors illuminate neon blue*.............. *smerk* oh I see............ The UX returns to its former state. well I doubt I will never need that now will I? Vyper - 27 Mar 2003 07:12 pm Post subject: After Hiroko had been captured, Tsubasa had headed for Earth after collecting his reward. He arrived almost immediately after the IE struck, and even ran not more than 100 feet parralel with it for some four minutes. He saw the awesome power of the UX and sought out to capture it. DeathscytheX - 27 Mar 2003 08:14 pm Post subject: IC: Rob watches the news for a bit, floating around in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, after a bit he turned it off and slept without a care in the world. He stayed decloaked in hoped of picking up some action. The Dreadnaught was not far off headed the other way back to Volarian, Rob paid it no attention he didnt want the Volarians to know he was alive just yet. right now it was just him, Denethor, Hiroko, and Lev. cyberlink - 28 Mar 2003 09:00 am Post subject: IC: After Rei's talk with Mukuro it became aparent and obvious to him that he could turn the situation to his own good, By infiltrating the IE base and download importand information about the Command central that was hevaily fortified and also Diagrams and blue prints for the Dreadnaught showing its week spots. There was one week spot that they knew about and that was its hypershield, It ad to be lowered in order for the main cannon to be fired, But that was only a small window of opportinity, Rei had to find out another way. Leaving The Earth and entering space Rei give MMi a few commands... Rei: MMI Engage ACS, and engage long range sensors, There all out there somewhere and I want to know where.... MMI: *Sensors Indicate that Denethor is still on planet Mars, No imediate activity from and suit detected. Also the IE ship Dreadnaught is on a current course to Volarian,* Rei: Hum, whats that doing headed there? Forget about Denethor MMI, make a course for the Dreadnaught. MMI:*Course Set, engaging Overdrive systems,ETA 0.38.* Rei: that quick eh, well i think ill catch up on the news, Tune into the Zion new network will ya, Rei watches the Zion news and learns that after the battle between the IE and Zion forces, the rebuild of the commant network has begun, The commander was pronounced KIA as was Rei and Sukanimi. That would mean that No royal Zion people were left on Zion and the government would take control making it a democratic World. *---Unknown Suit Detected, Point 0.j86---* Rei: MMI what is it, On screen. The main screen luminates and shows an image of the Asteroid belt, MMI:* sensors indicate that an Unknown Suit is Inactive in the Asteroid belt, no movement detected.* Rei: where i cant see it, all i see are Asteroids! MMI:*well its there, my sensors never lie* Sure enough there was a suit, as a huge asteroid moved away the suit was revieled, Rei: WHAT THE......... MMI:* diagnostics indicate that it is the same suit that we saw in Earths jurisdiction space.* Rei: so.... the mysterious pilot shows himself. or rather He is waiting for someone to show there selfes. Just as a precaution, run all system checks and begin charge of the Ultra Matrix. The two Stars of zion are here with us MMI, I realised that You hold one half while hold the other..... MMI:*And by placing the 2 halfs together in the AU matrix will engale the Austoria Ultima Matrix, (like the Transformed Burning Gundam, but better. ^.^)* Rei: right, I wont place the crystal in the matrix just yet, if we do disagree and battle each other then I want to see what he can do, I know that suit design looks symilar. symilar to your design AU. I wonder if that suit was dfrom the Crest corp as well.?? MMI:* I was not form Crest Corp....* Rei: MMI i know that but your frane and specifications did. At the time when we infiltrated the corporation they were in the early stages of development of a new type of Mobile suit. They had only begun design on the first prototype. We copied those blueprints and began design of our own suit based on those specifications, we found that by incorporating our own technoligies we could signaficantley increase the suits performance, hence the Austoria was born. Since then scientists began construction of this suit, The Austoria Ultima, with systems like the Hyper Matrix, if ever the 2 peices of the Zion star be united, One peice was placed in the suit and the other given to the commander so the system couldnot be used without the highest authouristion, MMI:* I see, so what your trying to say is the on the penultimate scans of this Unknown suit we match up pritty evenly, But that suit being the slightley stronger,* Rei: yes, only on the surface scans tho. I think we could hold our own if we battled with this suit but if those scans were incorect we would have to engage the Hyper Matrix. So just do as i say... run the system checks and prepare for battle as a precaution. MMI:*enaging* Rei: open up a channel with that suit, I want to talk. MMI:*channel open;* Rei: this is Reiouku Denami, Pilot of the Austoria Ultima....... TBC...........(^.^) Strider Hiryu - 28 Mar 2003 09:19 am Post subject: Spike: Hows the suit coming Denethor? Denethor: I finished it about 10 min. ago. Defiance (AI of the Defiant): Took him long enough though. Spike: Who was that? Denethor: Oh thats just the Defiance, the Defiants AI. Spike: Looks like you'll have another SS on your hands. SS: Hey now remember I'm now the AI of this ship. I can do what I wish to you you know. Spike: I know I was just joking. So are we gonna need to go get parts from this Gordon. Denethor: Yea but I'll do it myself. The Defiant is able to fly. I just need to get a few more things to be done with it. Spike: Alright. Hey have you seen Geddoe? Denethor: No he must have gotten into trouble again. Spike: Ohwell. I'll go check the IE news and local news then. Denethor: Alright. I'll be back shortly. I'm going to see this Gordon. *the Defiant blasts off* ---Defiant--- Height: 150 ft. Weight: 30.0 metric tons Decal: Vedran Special Ops (was known as the Vedran Terrorist group to the IE. The old group that Denethor was raised in) Abilities: Zero G-Excellent Gravity-Excellent Aqua-Good Melee-Good Medium Range- Excellent Long Range-Excellent, basically deadly Weaponry: 4x anti-matter missle pods (2 missles each) 2x phase blasters 2x beam rail guns 2x VSBR's 1x high energy beam sniper rifle 6x machine cannons 30x cloaking shadow funnels (same as shadow funnels but are able to cloak now) 2x plasma cannons 1x dual shadow saber 2x hyper jammers 1x shadow vesper (cloaking unit) 1x shadow shield revamp 4x psiwave dischargers Appearence: The Defiant has some of the looks of the Shadow Sun but it also resembles the Ultra X seeing as how it was built with some of the same parts as the Ultra X. It has the decal of the Vedran Special Ops on it to honor Denethor's fallen companions and family. Technology: New technologies have been incorporated into the Defiant making it much better than the Shadow Sun. Like the Ultra X it has the ability to spawn its weapons from its armor and remerge them with it whenever not in use. The weaponry has been updated quite extensively to add new funnels that can cloak, psiwave dischargers that send out concentrated blasts of energy from the pilots mind to render enemy pilots paralyzed for a short period of time, and a few new things. Also theres been a new cockpit frame added to the Defiant. Its called the Psychoneural frame. Its just like the psychoframe but it now links with the pilot mentally and neurally. The pilot does feel all damage that the suit takes so that is a downside but it also helps out by that the suit can now be piloted by just moving your body (kinda like the MT system found in G Gundam but this is done with nanobots in the body of the pilot). The suit can still be controlled with the pilots mind. The uncontrollable rage can still be found as a side effect though. Also the Time-Dimensional Warp capabilities are also found in this suit just like in the Shadow Sun. OOC: Well theres the new suit. I just took the weapon spawn ability from your suit DX cause thats really all I wanted. cyberlink - 28 Mar 2003 11:53 am Post subject: OOC: sorry, i dodnt post my upgrades to the Austoria before, So here they are: * AUSTORIA ULTIMA * Height 140 ft Weight: 34.56 Tons Decal: IE SPECIAL FORCS Abalities: Zego G: Excellent Gravity: Exceptional Aqua: Average Melee: Excellent Long range: Excellent Medium Range: Excellent (Maximum-strength with Matrix) * Matrix System Enabled* Zego G: Exceptional Gravity: Exceptional Aqua: Exceptional Melee: Exceptional Long range: Exceptional Medium Range: Exceptional Weaponry: 2X Ultra Sonic Beam Saber's 1X Ultra Twin Beam Rifle MK II 4X High Velocity Vulcan Cannons 12X Long Range Seismic Missiles (LSM) 16xAuto tracking Electric disruptors 2x Beometric cannons (charges a ball of energy at target) 2X Bio organic Lasers 4X Bio Photon Mines ( Vapourises all organic material in a 100 mile radus, can only be used in atmospheric conditions) 4X Image Disruptors ( decoy's) 1X Automated Camoflage System (ACS) 1X Automated Targeting Syatem (ATS) 1X Self Defence Systems (SDF) 1X Ballistic Shield (similar to that in the Raumhaifisch) *Ultra Matrix Mode* 2X Ultra Sonic Beam Saber's (high velocity and dammage) 1X Ultra Twin Beam Rifle MK II (pure energy source meand that beam is un breakable) 1x Matrix armour 8X High Velocity Vulcan Cannons 16Long Range Seismic Missiles (LSM) 16xAuto tracking Electric disruptors 3x Beometric cannons (charges a ball of energy at target) 3X Bio organic Lasers 8X Bio Photon Mines ( Vapourises all organic material in a 100 mile radus, can only be used in atmospheric conditions) 4X Image Disruptors ( decoy's) 1X Automated Camoflage System (ACS) 1X Automated Targeting Syatem (ATS) 1X Self Defence Systems (SDF) 1x celebral interface 1X Ballistic Shield (similar to that in the Raumhaifisch) DeathscytheX - 28 Mar 2003 10:13 pm Post subject: OOC: Cyberlink the Dreadnaught is a Volarian Ship now.

Denethor: Cause the IE has been to quiet and I have a feeling they're watching our every move. Defiance: Alright. *Denethor enters Gordon's place* Gordon: Whos there? Denethor: A person who knows a friend of yours. He told me to give this to you so you know who sent me. *Denethor hands the thing that Rob gave him to Gordon* Gordon: Oh so your a friend of Robs. Well a friend of his is always welcome here. So who are you exactly. Denethor: My name is Denethor Darkweaver. I'm probably known as the Shadow Assassin or other similar names by the IE. Gordon: Oh I see. So what can I do for you? Denethor: I was wondering if you had any of these parts here. *hands him a list of parts* Gordon: Jesus what are these for? Denethor: For a new type of weapon that I designed myself with the help of a false enemy. Gordon: I see. Some of this is outlawed and to find some of the stuff with this energy potential will be hard to get. I have most of it here but some of it must be ordered from the IE since its outlawed. Denethor: Hmm well could you send the parts you have to this hanger. Thats where I'm currently staying. My friends there will be there to recieve them. As for the others, are there any IE R&D buildings or suits bunkers in this area? Gordon: Theres one that way. *points out west* They might have the rest of what you need. I'll send the parts there right away. Denethor: Thank you. Gordon: One question: What is that weapon for? Denethor: Lets say its gonna help the resistance take out the IE and it will also help with my plan to kill a very powerful person. Gordon: I see. Good luck and come back if need be. Denethor: I will. See you around. Defiance we're leaving. Defiance: As you wish. I hope you know that that area will be hard to get into. Denethor: And your afraid why? Our cloaking device is quite hard to penetrate. Defiance: I suppose your right. *Denethor jumps into the Defiant and takes off for the base. He arrives seconds later cloaked and ready for battle* Denethor: Defiance give me a readout of those buildings and whats inside. Defiance: Not much inside but that one at the far end seems to have the parts we need. Denethor: Alright lets go. *They head to the building* Denethor: So they are what I need. Lets take them and go. ????: Not so fast Denethor. You shall not take those. I know what you plan to do and I won't let you do it. Denethor: Who are you? ????: Lets just say I'm your worst enemy.

Rob: hmmm Strider Hiryu - 31 Mar 2003 09:17 am Post subject: Denethor: So you think your my worst enemy? I highly doubt that. My worst enemy was Alton. ????: Alton was just a pawn. I'm the one you should worry about. Denethor: And why is that? ????: Because I was one of the ppl who helped destroy Terra Vedra and your family. Denethor: Bah and I care why? ????: You should care cause I'm one of the few who knows the weakness in Vedrans psychic powers. Denethor: Well that won't work on me. I'm not your average Vedran. ????: I know. You are basically a cyborg now but thats not what your girlfriend thinks now is it. Denethor: What do you mean? Ayami is nowhere to be found lately. ????: Thats because my ppl and I are holding her. We have a propostion for you. Turn your back on the resistance and join us. We may be part of the IE but we don't follow there orders. Denethor: I can't turn my back on my friends. I will die before I go over to your side. ????: Think on this for a day. If you refuse your girlfriend dies but if you decide to join us we will let her live. I will be in contact with you in about a day. Till then. *the strange person and its suit disappear into the shadows* Defiance: Shall we take the parts? Denethor: Yes grab them. How could Ayami be captured. I hid her on Shakuras a few years ago. She couldn't have been found. Defiance: That is true but didn't you hide here with Geddoe? Seeing as how Geddoe is always in trouble maybe something happened to get her captured on one of his escapades. Denethor: Hmmm. Well lets go back to the Stalker. Geddoe and I will have a little discussion about this. ---Memory Flashback--- Ayami: But why Denethor? I don't want to stay here. I want to be with you. Denethor: I know dear but its to dangerous to be with me at the moment. I don't know what I'd do if something happened to you. The IE is out to kill me and I can't have you with me in dangerous situations. Geddoe will look after you and so will Spike when he gets the chance. I will be back to see you so don't worry. Ayami: But still I don't want you to go. Denethor: Don't worry. Geddoe I leave her in your hands. You know that if anything happens to her I will hold you responsible. Geddoe: I know. Don't worry shes in good hands. Now come back soon and please don't get killed. Denethor: Right. Well I guess this is goodbye for now. *Ayami kisses Denethor before he leaves and then runs off* ---Back to the real world--- Defiance: We're back. Denethor: Alright get the parts put over there. Defiance: Right. Spike: Denethor a package from Gordon arrived. That was a hell of a lot of expensive and dangerous equipment. Denethor: I know. Its for a very powerful weapon I designed from specs that Alton had. It will help greatly in this war. Spike: Alright. I'll get to work on it. Denethor: Thanks. Hey has Geddoe come back yet? Spike: Now but he called earlier. Hes at one of the local bars. Denethor: Alright thanks. *Denethor leaves to head to the bar Geddoes at* DeathscytheX - 31 Mar 2003 04:04 pm Post subject: IC: Rob heads toward the bay where the guild ships were. he leans up against the wall listening and watching.

Tsubasa: Im looking for a cetian Mechanized Suit.. a black one.... not like normal suits.. have you seen one come by here? Officer: um.. not that I know of. you are welcome to check the logs.. there are a few people that have come in, from outside the protective terra-dome. Tsubasa: interesting.. Id like a list of these people. Rob sees the decal patch on Tsubasa's jump suit... it wasnt a guild patch at all.. it was just made to look like one.. it was an older IE decal for special Ops squads. Rob slipped away before anyone saw him. Rob: so they are looking for my suit.. maybe thats why they have been so quiet. Strider Hiryu - 31 Mar 2003 06:13 pm Post subject: *Denethor arrives at the bar and enters. He notices Geddoe sitting in a corner and approaches* Denethor: Geddoe we have to talk. Geddoe: About what my friend? Denethor: I just had an interesting conversation with a pilot that is after me to join his group of thugs. The interesting thing is is that he says that he has Ayami. Now the thing that interests me about this is that I left her in your protection. Geddoe: Well you see that can be explained. Denethor: Your damn right it can be!!! I suggest you start explaining now before I have to do something I may regret. Geddoe: Alright no need to hurt me. It happened about 2 months after you dropped her off. A group of ppl arrived at my place. They were the IE special ops group. They came to arrest me on charges that I was helping to hide you. When I said I wasn't they searched the place and found Ayami with a picture of you. They then took off with her and arrested me. Thats the reason why I was in jail when you came to my place the last time. I tried my best to locate her while I was in jail but I couldn't and I didn't have the heart to tell you seeing as how you would probably kill me. Denethor: Damnit all. I knew that guy was a little to knowledgeable about me. The IE special ops forces huh. The same ones that destroyed my home planet? Geddoe: That would be them. They were currently hunting you down so that they could either incorporate you into the IE like they did Alton or to kill you on sight. It seems they chose to try and incorporate you. So what are you going to do? Denethor: I don't know. I have to wait until my new weapon is completed. After that I suppose I'll have to try and find Rob and see what he knows on them. Geddoe: Rob? You mean that guy who died at the battle for Volaria? Denethor: Yea it seems he didn't die. He was just at the hanger about an hour or so ago. Alright then. I'm gonna go dig up some info on the IE special ops team. I need you to get back to the Stalker seeing as how they know you and might use you also to get me to join them. Geddoe: Alright. I'll be back there in about 15 minutes. Denethor: Alright. Tell Spike I'll be back in awhile. *Denethor leaves and jumps into the cockpit of the Defiant* Denethor: Defiance give me whatever data you can gather on the IE Special Ops forces. Defiance: May I ask why? Denethor: You already know. Defiance: I see. Would you also like me to try and get a message to Rob? Denethor: If you can. Tell him everything thats going on. I suppose he probably knows that the IE Special Ops are up and about cause I'm sure they're looking for him. Plus the only reason they could want me to join is probably the fact that I am probably one of the few that could stand a chance against him. Defiance: Alright. I will send the message and begin searching. Denethor: Right. *the Defiance sends a coded message to the UX and starts searching for info on the IE Spec. Ops forces* Gundam-Ranger-X - 31 Mar 2003 09:27 pm Post subject: OCC : I think I'll just drop out of the RP. I've been gone too long and besides, it's not like my character had any point in the story. He was just there. DeathscytheX - 31 Mar 2003 09:35 pm Post subject: IC: Rob walked towards the hangar exit to call on the UX to come pick him up. Tsubasa: HAULT THERE *gun cock* Rob stops clamly with his hands in the pockets of his tench coat. Tsubasa: so you arent dead after all Rob Opsulous... Rob: you cant stop me you know... Tsubasa: heh... so that suit is yours Rob: what suit? Tsubasa: dont play stupid with me! My whole guild is here, u cannot escape.. you will come with us. Rob: oh really.. and this suit u speak of.. if it was mine.. how would u get it? Tsubasa: you will show it to me or I will kill you like the IE should have. Rob: heh.. as you wish *throws trench coat off in the air and snaps finger in the air* RISE ULTRA X!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! () The UX busts throught the hangar door and skids on its knees as Rob backflips into the cockpit and immediatly puts the UX's left chaingun in Tsubasa's face. Rob: idiot.. now you will tell me what your business is here. Tsubasa: *smerks* its you who are mistaken Suits surrounded the UX as tsubasa gets in a NV-MAD concept design he had never seen before Rob: i see Rob fires swamers in the hanger everywhere destorying the hanger and 10 suits while the UX's hypershiled goes up and slams through the roof. Tsubasa follows Rob up and pulls out a huge doublesided beam saber and comes down on Rob, but he counters with the staff, the UX grabs the NV-MAD's arm and swings it down nailing it with Ion missiles.. they did little damage to the suit. Rob: what is this? Tsubasa comes back up in blinding speed and rams into the UX jolting Rob back. Rob: so this is serious eh? Rob pounds the head unit with chaingun rounds, Tsubasa countered with vulcan cannon fire but Rob moved out of the way. Rob slashed with the staff but Tsubasa moved quickly. Rob: what?! Tsubasa: heh.. fool.. this isnt an ordinary mecha. Tsubasa swipes at rob with the saber keeping him on his toes. Rob gets pissed and the spikes pop out on the shoulders and knuckes again. Rob slams the fist into the shoulder of the NV-MAD peircing its haul. Tsubasa wouldnt get out of Robs face, preventing him from firing missiles. Rob pushed off the NV-MAD and the UXPF flashed fast.. the UX's right hand glowed like a plasma rod. Tsubasa: what is that?! Rob: This hand of mine illuminates with an awesome power.. Its hellish burn tells me to kill you!!!! HERE I GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLASMA FINGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (G Gundam King of Hearts song plays) the UX bursts at blinding speed forcing almost unbearable G's on Rob's body, the glowing hand smashes through the torso vaporizing Tsubasa and griping the core. the tremendous head causes the NV-MAD to explode violently.. the peopl in the moon city watch outside their windows as teh dust clears and the UX is still in the posistion it was and then laxes after its hand returns to normal with the NV-MAD debris floating around it. Rob looks at the hand.. Rob: what an insane weapon..... what power.. what G force *rubs head* Plasma Finger eh? why not plasma hand.. i mean thats what it used 0-o. Rob brusts off, and receives a message.. OOC: Strider Hiryu - 01 Apr 2003 09:27 am Post subject: OOC: I don't know you . That was completely weird. I'll post an actual RP post later after I get over the shock of that post DX. I'll just edit this for my post. IC: Defiance: So what are we gonna do Denethor? Denethor: I don't know. I'm at a loss. I don't want to join the people who destroyed my home planet but then I really can't stand the thought of my beloved being killed because of me. Defiance: Well you better hurry up and decide seeing as how that man wants his answer soon. Denethor: Don't remind me. Lets go back to the hanger and get the new weapon for you done. Defiance: Alright. *They head off to the hanger to finish the new weapon* DeathscytheX - 03 Apr 2003 12:57 am Post subject: IC: Rob returns to the hanger landing violently on the ground shooting dust everywhere, Rob hops out and finds Denethor. Rob: you called? *holding ribs* Denethor: are you ok? Rob: yeah.. just alittle G force chrush i experianced, ill be fine.. what did you need? Strider Hiryu - 03 Apr 2003 08:47 am Post subject: Denethor: Well I need info on the IE Special Ops team if you have any. They want me to join them or they'll kill someone close to me. I need to know everything I can about them so I know what they're about. All I know about them was that they were responsible for the destruction of my home planet. Defiance: And thats all I found. There doesn't seem to be much about them in any databanks. DeathscytheX - 03 Apr 2003 01:28 pm Post subject: IC: Denethor described the ships and the man and the uniforum to Rob.. rob cringed as the discription was said. Rob: thats no special ops team.. or at least they werent until now... looks like the IE has more use for gangs of thugs now.. the blytz.. Denethor: blytz? Rob: yeah, they were a local band of mercinaries, near teh begining of last year the IE started funding them to do jobs for the IE, looks like they are full time employees now. they have a bunch of cells in neo-tokyo back on earth.. i doubt its there anymore after the battle there. they probably moved to there small time operations HQ on the Triton (jupiter Moon) that would be a more suitible place, theyd never expect you to look there. *Rob puts a card in the UX and pulls it out..* heres all the info on the blytz i have.. its not much cuzz most of it was destoryed with the X. but thats where they HQ is. becareful, they have alot of high tech crap the IE gave to them, no doubt they have even more since the last time I saw them. Strider Hiryu - 04 Apr 2003 08:42 am Post subject: Denethor: Thanks Rob. This will help me greatly. I suggest you get some rest here because you look like you need it. I'm going to go now and make those guys pay. I'll be in contact after I have accomplished what I set out to do. You might want to stand back cause I'm just going to jump from inside the hanger. Defiance we're going. Defiance: Right. *Denethor jumps in the cockpit* Denethor: Alright activate the TDW reactor and also display all data Rob gave us. I'll be needing to learn everything I can. Defiance: Right. Activating TDW drive. *The Defiant disappears suddenly from the hanger* DeathscytheX - 08 Apr 2003 01:35 am Post subject: IC: Rob rests a while, then hops in the UX and blasts into space. UX: what destination will we head too. Rob: i dunno yet.. I havent heard from Auriana in a while, I wonder what she is up too. Rob turns on the news and floads cloaked in space seeing what the IE was up to.. not much was going on and it worried him.. moments of such inactivity means a planned strike.. a big one too, bigger than neo-tokyo.

Vyper - 10 Apr 2003 07:03 pm Post subject: Sweat pours off Hiroko's face.. He targets the UX, and fires his last shell. The UX blows up. Hiroko sighed in relief.. it was all over. Lights in the cockpit came on and the seat slid backwards, into the lab. Scientists congratulated Hiroko on his accomplishment. Hiroko glanced up to a viewing window where he saw various scientists celebrating, but something disurbed him - there were several cloaked figures simply standing there. The one in the center was slightly shorter and long, silvery blue hair flowed out from the cloak. The figures left after glancing at their wristwatches. Hiroko: Huh? A scientist approached him. Scientist: hiroko, do you realize how long you have been training? Hiroko: Umm no, why? Scientist: Well, it was long enough to create the mecha with the data you trained on ^_^ Hiroko: Oh my god, really?? Scientist: Yep. Come with me. They hopped onto a golf cart, and drove for what seemed like forever to the other side of the luxurious facility. Hiroko: I do have a question, however. Scientist: Yes? Hiroko: Why did Crest spend so much money on this facility? Scientist: The executives of Crest believe good working conditions stimulate the better performance of employees. However, we have nowhere near the amount of money to be able to do this at all of our manufacturing plants, so only the best of the best work here. Hiroko: Oh, really? Scientist: Yes. That is actually precisely why your suit is being made here; your suit has been made by the best of the best. Hiroko: Ahhh, I see. The arrive in front of hug, thick doors three times taller than a mech. The scientist walked over to a tiny control panel in front of it, and typed in his password, slid a keycard through a slot, and finally put his hands on the side of the console onto specific sensors and peered into a screening device. A small arm came out and pricked his left arm. The scientist ran back to the golf cart, and drove out of the way as the huge doors opened, revealing another huge set of doors. They drove into the corridor between them, and stopped. The door behind them shut, and Hiroko looked up to see a wide window with heavilly armed guards at a control center. A scanner slid down and identified them. The security guard confirmed them, and the second set of doors opened. As Hiroko's jaw hit the floor, the scientist said Scientist: Hiroko, I present to you.. the MX-Z22. Or you may call it the Hotaru 3. We have already incorporated the Hotaru 3 logos into it. Hiroko: T-thank you! Scientist: No problem. The scientist cell phone rings. The scientist talks for awhile, and shuts it off. Scientist: Well, apparently you have been requested to be transfered to the Raumhaifisch. We are to take you to tthe Laguardia Launch Pad ..immediately. Hiroko: Laguardia? Scientist: Don't ask me how the IE thinks... if this gets stolen it's their fault. LOAD IT ONTO THE FLATBED GUYS! The Hotaru 3 is loaded onto the flatbed and they leave immediately. they get onto the High Speed Transit system, which consist of a huge raised highway some thirty vehicles wide. They quickly accelerate to 400 miles per hour. Soon they arrive in the commerical district, surrounded by skyscrapers everywhere. Speaker: Now leaving IE support range. Please be careful. Speaker [Commander Vindynol]: Gregg where are you [pshhh] Scientist: That moron.. it's his fault for choosing this route. Gregg shuts off the speaker and they continue barreling down the highway, and takes sharp turns following the signs to Laguardia Launch Pad. Hiroko glanced out the side of the window, and almost snapped back because of the speed making him sick, but he didn't because he thought he saw something. He clenched his stomach and looked back, and saw a distorted Zephyr due to the skyscrapers passing by. It seemed to be going the same speed as they were. He shrugged it off and looked to the other side and saw another Zephyr behind the skyscrapers lining the highway. Gregg seemed to have noticed them too, because he was sweating nervously. He gulped as he looked down between a divider in the highway to see two more as well. One more pulled out from the thicket of skyscrapers in front of them, and slowed down to match their speed. Hiroko: What the.. they looked at the underbelly of the Zephyr above them and saw a door open from under it. Hiroko could barely make out the cloaked figures he had seen previously. Gregg began driving much more agressively. Suddenly the road signs began freaking out. They went blank for a moment, and turned back on. 25 of the lanes signs switched to construction ahead signs, and had an animated arrow pointing to the inside five lanes. The speed limit greatly decreased to 35 miles per hour. The traffic became gridlock traffic, and barriers slid up in front of the now shut down traffic lanes. The police in the police cruisers above had no clue what was going on. Gregg tried to swerve around the barriers, but lane barriers popped up along the lane markers. Gregg was forced to go into one of the five lanes. All of the drivers became very angry and honked their horns and cursed obsceinities. The Zephyr descended and latched onto the bed of the semi, and began lifting it. Gregg: Get out!! Hiroko jumped out and ran between the cars. Gregg: Get on a vehicle fast!! The Zephyr had a firm grip on it and began lifting off faster. It moved away from the highway and the cockpit of the semi fell off. Hiroko realized what was happening and jumped onto a SUV and gripped hard onto the luggage mounting rails on top. The signs freaked out once more and everything turned back to normal. Hiroko noticed the other five Zephyrs were still there. One flew above the highway andeveryone went back to their normal speed. Hiroko had to hold on much tighter before. In front of him a Zephyr dropped several cloaked personnel onto a semi. Hiroko ran backwards and jumped onto another semi and was pressed against the front of the bed. hHe climbed up the ladder and went on the top but he slid all the way to the back as soon as he got up; he stood straight up. He barely grabbed the crease of the door from behind, and it flung open, throwing all its conents all over the highway, some hitting him consistently until he threw himself back. Jumped into the cargo area, and shortly after they jumped in after him and began trying to restrain him. Several ran up at him and jump kicked, but knocked over some packages. It then occured what the semi was carrying; dishwashing soap poured out all over the floor. Hiroko pushed a rack of it into one of them and he slid out of the semi onto the highway, rolled violently on the highway, and was crushed by the rack. Two others punched him in the face. He ducked and elbowed one in the chest, and pressed his hands on the floor and kicked the other one in the face, and pushed up with his arms and jumped down on him with his feet, and then swung a rack of the soap around and hit the one he elbowed. The heavy inertia made him slide into the wall, near the opening. Two others came rushing towards him with parylizers drawn, and he grabbed a bar on the ceiling, and swung and kicked them. He managed to wrap his leg around one of their arms, and on the backswing threw him out of the vehicle, sending him rolling onto anoher semi, and then plunged head first into the windshield of a sedan. The other came running at him, in which he ducked and punched him in his gut, and grabbed him by his ankles and flung him around into the door that was still closed. He saw the one ramining one, still by the rack, struggling to get up. Hiorko ran up to him and kicked him in the throat but not before the guy managed to dump the rack's worth of dishwashing soap on the floor, completely coating the floor. Hiroko saw the back of one of the highway signs, showing a turn. One of the Zephyrs came overhead and began lightly pelting the cockpit. Hiroko: What the... don't they want me alive? The driver began driving agressively, and accelerated well over the speed limit and took a sharp turn onto the upcoming turn in the road. This sucked Hiroko to the wall. He accelerated even more, and Hiroko slid clean out of the vehicle on his back, hurtling him off of the raised highway. Hiroko: So this is how it's going to end..... :: THUNK :: Hiroko hit the top of a Zephyr than had managed to maneuver under him and catch him. The last thing he saw was the four other Zephyrs in a circle above him before he hit his head on a turret and passed out. DeathscytheX - 20 Apr 2003 10:10 pm Post subject: UX: units dectected Rob: data? UX: Blytz, 20 units 3 crusiers, they seemed to have locked on to our location Rob oh really? The UX thrusts out of the asteroid field and shows itself to the squad, before any reaction was mad, Rob fired the XPR at the middle crusier making it blow up, critically damaging the other 2 cruisers in the formation. Rob: lets see what happens when i try at 100% full capacity the UX zips up to the squad leader and slices the mecha in half horizontally across the cockpit with the anti-matter staff and spins around slashing another on inhalf vertically between the legs, after that he fires swamer missiles taking out 2 more suits. 3 suits charge at him, but Rob boosts upward out of the way and filps upside down behind them, he jams the staff in the back of the middle suit and then swings it 360 around and back into the suit on the left demolishing them both with pure power, while doing this he fires an ion missile destorying the 3rd and moves out of the way of another suit which came from above, and quickly disabled it with chaingun fire. Rob was taking on an insane amount of enemies, the manuvers and the speed he was attacking and defending with was inhuman, the brain was not ment to beable to process so many tasks at once.. Rob felt as if his sub conscienousness was doing half the work and he was doing the rest. 30 missiles rained down on the UX but the hypershiled put an end to it. Rob: YOU CANT BEAT ME YOU FOOLS!!! The UX's armor transforms again as it once had with spikes forming out of the shoulders and knuckles, the anti-matter staff started to emit a blue mist almost like blue flames but more transparent. Rob charged at an even faster speed than before he sliced through 6 mechas in less than a second. he unleshed seismic mines everywhere and boosted back and fired on them. the shockwaves took out 3 more mechs leaving 3 out of the once 20. Rob threw the staff like a spear through one of the suits that was retreating like a coward, the other 2 charges at him, rob flipped under them and grabed one leg of each and spun them around swinging them out into space, Rob sped over to his staff as he fired 2 ionic missiles at one of the suits, before that hit he blazed over to the other suit and destoryed with the staff cutting it into 3 pieces. after all the suits were gone, rob smashed through the haul of one of the curisers and unloaded naplam everywhere in its hangar then slammed through another wall out of that cruiser, through the debris of the fully destoryed one and into the last one where he dumped off the rest of his seismic mines on 3 second timers, Rob prompty smashed through the roof of the curiser and was off watching them explode from a distance. as he twirled his staff and put it away. the UX returned to normal. Rob: *sweat rolls down face* incredable. Vyper - 20 Apr 2003 10:26 pm Post subject: Hiroko woke up to see a girl with her hood down. Her now slightly messy silvery blue hair flowed out over her shoulders. She places her hand over his face. Hiroko wanted to say something but he didn't as her cold palm pressed against his face. She closed her eyes, and seemed thoughtful. Hiroko suddenly became very inquisitive. He began hearing her voice in his head, but he couldn't make out what she was saying ( Cannnn du haught der-shand meh.. wath hatsh die IE donn du zu.. ) He kept hearing her voice over and over, only clearer. She said to one of her consorts, 'I think he's starting to understand me.' Hiroko closed his eyes. Girl: Do you not remember me, Hiroko? Hiroko (voice): Unnngh? Girl: You saved my life. Hiroko (voice): Hunh... Girl: The IE has corrupted you.. you were suspicous of them even after they tampered with you.. follow your intuition, Hiroko. Hiroko's eyes open wide, with a look of shock emblazoned. Hiroko (psychic): AURIANA!!! Auriana: :: gasp :: Auriana collapses onto the bed and tightly hugs Hiroko. Pilot: Mrs.. another 60 blytz are comming..they seem to be followed by the Aries battlecruiser. Auriana: I knew the blytz were with the IE. DeathscytheX - 20 Apr 2003 10:44 pm Post subject: UX: 60 more blytz Rob: OH REALLY? do they stil think they can beat me?!! The UX transforms again. UX: the Aries is with them Rob: so what.. Rob bursts into the location straight into the middle of all 60 suits. Rob: hey guys.. looks like ur going the wrong way.. *spins staff* Pilot: Mrs. Auriana.. a new suit has just engaged the blytz. Rob slices 3 suits in half with a 360 spin slash, and unleashes a hellish assault of swarmer missiles and blast away at many suits making a field of debris that tottaly distrups everyones censors except for Robs. Rob: How much more time till the Aries arives? UX: 10 minutes until it is in attacking rage Rob: thats more than enough. Rob dodges an attacking suit that came pretty close.. he activates the hypershiled mangling its armor and then chainguns it to its end, seconds after that he smashes anotherone in the face with the chaingun barrel. and then punches it in the torso with its spiked fist. Auriana looks at the monitor Auriana Thats Rob! Pilot: The Blytz suits are dropping like flies! I cant believe its only one suit doing that!! Vyper - 21 Apr 2003 08:20 pm Post subject: Auriana: Well, it seems we won't be seeing the end of fighting anytime soon. Hiroko: Right. Casper, get me my trenchcoat and MP5Ks. Casper: Yes, sir. Auriana: I didn't know you knew Casper.. Hiroko: Yep, he was with me when we restored Polaris. Auriana: Ahh.. Casper comes out with his trenchcoat neatly folded, handing over his arm. The MP5Ks lay on top of the trench coat. Hiroko takes the trenchcoat, puts it on, and slides the Uzis in his inside pockets. When he finished he noticed Auriana getting in her pilot suit. Hiroko: What are you doing? Auriana: Helping. Hiroko: -sigh- Okay. Auriana: It's a great suit. Hiroko: Yes, yes.. Hiroko looked to see the other three Zephyrs trailing theirs. One flew upside down. Casper: We're transferring the suit to our hangar. You can get on from there. Hiroko: 'kay. Auriana hugs Hiroko. Hiroko hugs back, and they hug for the five minutes it takes the MX-Z22 to transfer into the cockpit. They slide away from each other, and jump into the cockpits. Casper: Are you ready? Hiroko: Yes. Auriana: Yes. Casper: Opening door.. They zoom out and head straight for the Blytz. They begin firing at Hiroko. He aims his shoulder-mounted Absorbtion Shield ®. The bullets hit it, and dissapate. He points it at one of them, and it fires a blast slightly less powerful than theirs combined. It hits, and one blows up. They rush Hiroko and Auriana with beam sabres drawn. Hiroko pulls out his Fusion Sabres ® and begins hacking at them. Hiroko completely misses one and shortly afterwords the blytz suit implodes. They surrounded Auriana with their rifles trained on her. She began to raise the suits arms, gun pointing above. Hiroko: No.. (Slow Motion) One opens fire. The others soon begin shooting. Hiroko pulls out his Dual Fusion Particle Cannon set on Rapid Fire. Shot one comes in contat. Hiroko completely misses. Auriana is his by the other four shots. Hiroko: Ahhh!! Aurianna flicks the head across the proximity of all of them laying out a large number a fast firing plasma rounds. The plasma rounds hit each Blytz suit square in the chest and melt through the armor, and explode. (End of Slow Motion Casper: Auriana. Auriana: Yes? Capser: The Raumhaifisch has been sighted with the naked eye near Polaris. Auriana: Shit. We still have another 30 suits and the Aries is here. DeathscytheX - 21 Apr 2003 10:24 pm Post subject: Rob: Not anymore *breathing heavly* the spikes retracte intot he shoulders and warheads pop out in there place various missile bays open up. Rob: Hiroko.. Auriana.. cover me.. I cant move when i do this. Hiroko: how did you.. Rob: hmh.. Its good to have you back. Auriana: Roger that Rob: computer... intiate Ionkrieg Auriana and Hiroko cover Rob from any attack, Robs screen lit up with 26 crosshairs.. Rob: c'mon.. concentrait... *29 crosshairs as rob closes his eyes*........ 30.... A salvo of ion mircowarheads brusted out at every angle of the UX taking out every last mecha left in a hellish area of explosions. The missile bays close and the UX gracefully zips straight up out of the cloud of head it created and fliped right between Hiroko and Auriana. Rob: Mighty Impressive suit you have there hiroko. No time to chit chat... my scanners indicate Raumhaifich is apporching Polaris along with 600,000 mecha units.. Auriana: 600,000!!!!!!!!!! Rob: yes..... the Volarians are on there way to the location with the Dreadnaught and Levianthan along with 400,000 units, we must contact Mukuro and Denethor where ever they are.. There is no time to waste you must head towards polaris. Hiroko: what about you? Rob: I have to stop by a station and get some ammo I used it all up with that last attack. Auriana: We have ammo Rob: *sends data* these? Strider Hiryu - 22 Apr 2003 03:22 pm Post subject: (yikes this has gotten quite interesting. I need to get back in.

Rob: Well I guess we'll have to make a stop on the way there. Auriana: Right, but you can board on a Zephyr..it'll be much faster. :: kzzzZZzzZZzzzZZ BOOM :: :: kzzzZZzzZZzzzZZ BOOM :: :: kzzzZZzzZZzzzZZ BOOM :: The Aries quickly warps away. Hiroko: Erm.. now what? Rob: Auriana: ..we're screwed!! :: a large object clanks against the back of Hiroko's suit, making a loud noise :: Hiroko: AAAAH!! Hiroko quickly pulls out the gun and flips around to see the Zanzabar floating lifelessly through space. --- 30 Minutes Later --- Hiroko: We will toast to possibly the last battle of our lives. To the downfall of the IE! Everyone Else: To the downfall of the IE! They had a large feast composed mainly of soft drinks and instant meals, and they flipped on the TV. Reporter: We're here in the very meeting of the Sage Council, in an undisclosed location on Plasmodium. The reporter goes out of focus to see a bunch of unpresentable old men bickering about. Reporter (back in focus): They will be making an important announcement soon. Suddenly the sages stop bickering, and they nod towards the chief. Chief Sage: We are ready. The reporter hurriedly runs out of the camera, and the thirty cameramen all focus on him. Chief Sage: Due to ethical problems.. and because we feel they have incurred much tyranny and suffering, we have as of today disbanded the I.. The Liberator warps in the backdrop, and can be seen through the windows surrounding the tower the Sages were conducting their meeting. It instantly begins firing rampantly, leveling buildings in whatever general direction the lasers head. One laser finds its mark on the tower and the signal shorts out. Auriana: Oh my god! --- Meanwhile, near Polaris on the Raumhaifisch --- Vindysil: Generals of the Leviathan! Thank you for your generous donation of suits! When you raid the city, make sure you capture ALL of the Royal Cruisers! DeathscytheX - 23 Apr 2003 06:22 pm Post subject: OOC: The Levianthan is Volarian now. Aries, and Liberator and anotherone i forgot is IE. Vyper - 23 Apr 2003 09:24 pm Post subject: Editted it to Liberator. DeathscytheX - 23 Apr 2003 09:40 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: cheat bastards ... i guess thats the end of the federations support of the IE.. hey here is my stop.. they have the ammo i need. the Zanzabar stops Rob: Good luck you 2. dont kill urselfs before i get there alright? Rob gets into the UX and ejects from the Zanzabar and floats to his destination. Vyper - 23 Apr 2003 10:56 pm Post subject: They travel for some 100 miles, when some pirates start matching their speed. Hiroko: I'll take care of them. Auriana: No, we cannot exhaust our supplies. Let me talk to them. Hiroko: ...fine. Auriana: Pirates, this is the Zanzabar. We will be willing to pay any sum of any currency; just let us be on our path. Pirate: I am Cornelius. No sum can pay our desires. Auriana: Hmm? Hiroko: Looks like we'll be slightly short of supplies when we arrive. Auriana: Are you sure? I possess much money. Cornelius: No amount of money can quench revenge. Auriana: What has the Polarian government done to you -oop!- Cornelius: Polarian Government, eh? We have no quarrel with you; our fight is with the IE. Auriana and Hiroko are astounded in the pirates' unforseen change in actions. Auriana: erm.... ...very well. Would you mind escorting us? Cornelius: Sure. As they travelled to Polaris I, similar encounters occured more and more as the group grew. They learned many of them had seen the Polarian broadcast, and all knew well of the Zanzabar now from rumors. Hiroko looks through one of the monitors to see the group of over one hundred spaceships cruising alongside them. Hiroko: This will be a bloody battle indeed.. we're halfway there. Several more ships joined their flank as he said this. DeathscytheX - 23 Apr 2003 11:46 pm Post subject: IC: Rob walks into the shop and looks around Owner: can i help you Rob: yes i need this. Owner: your going to that battle near polaris arent you? Rob: indeed. Owner: Then this is on the house. Rob: your help is appreciated. Rob gets back in the UX UX: What are you planning on doing Rob Rob: what do you mean? UX: u didnt reload all the ammo Rob: No need too UX: you dont plan on coming out of this alive do you? Rob: I never plan on coming out alive on anything. Rob blasts off in the UX. Vyper - 24 Apr 2003 12:41 am Post subject: Hiroko continued watching news reports, as he watched a nervous reporter in the middle of the Plasmodium massacre. Reporter: I-it seems that the IE are not dropping their arms.. they seem to be quickly taking hold of the capital. The reporter quickly looks back at an open hangar as a royal cruiser flies out, low expensive engines blaring. Reporter: It.. it seems the Balthasar has just come out of the hanger. Will they stand up to the aggressor? The Balthasar emits a long, continuous laser and slices through a quarter of the skyline. A tower comes down crashing and more dust explodes everywhere. After a moment the silhouette of the reporter can be seen. Reporter: :: cough :: I can't take it anymore!! Screw you guys! I'm going home!! They go back to the news center, where the correspondants there seem somewhat edgy as well, but it soon becomes evident why as the skyline shows the carnage from a distance. Correspondant: That was Marshall Childers... we have :: boom :: we-we have news that a large group has been heading towards the Raumhaifisch, which has been looming near Polaris I. If you're just joining us, the Volarian Army and Polaris Militia have been at a standstill with the troops of the IE. Who knows when fighting will break out. :: tsseeeeeewWWW BOOM :: A producer runs out onto the stage and begins talking to the correspondants. Producer: We are now evacuating. We will show news clips as we receive them from our cruiser. The Aphridites and Capricorn have just pulled out of the Royal Docks and are now attacking the city as well. The status on the Saggitarius and Libra are still unknown however it is reccomended you stay away from the docks. We will now be leaving and sending you to another reporter. Hiroko turns off the TV. Auriana: Hiroko.. come over here. Hiroko: Yes? Auriana: See that blue sphere way back there? Thats Polaris I. Hiroko: Ahh.. They saw a huge group almost as big as them pull next to them. Auriana: Look at the ship leading them! It's Tsubasa! Hiroko: I don't want that traitor anywhere near us. Tsubasa (comm): Hello Hiroko, Auriana. Hiroko shook his head in disgust. Tsubasa: Hiroko.. I have disgraced myself in the past with my deeds to achieve power and money. I hope my deeds in the near future will allow me to redeem myself. Hiroko: You needn't redeem yourself.. the IE are far too intimidating for one to deny. DeathscytheX - 24 Apr 2003 03:31 pm Post subject: IC: Rob flys in space towards the battle, he thinks of all the times he has had with the allies he has gained over the past few years. all the experiances, all the hardships. He never really had friends before besides gordon. He always saw himself as the only person fighting the IE.. He wasnt alone. Maybe the universe wasnt so hopeless after all. Maybe they had a chance. Insanely powerful weapsons shouldnt be needed to keep peace in the universe.. limited self defense would work good enough... Rob now understood why his father never wanted the UX to be used. the Ruamhaifisch wasnt necessary.... what good would destorying planets do? what was the use.. Rob: It all ends now.. The UX blasts ahead at full capacity Azrael - 24 Apr 2003 06:46 pm Post subject: On Earth, Mukuro saw the broadcast. He turns off the TV, walks outside, and gets in his scout. Mukuro: So this is it. He warps back to Tenshi's hangar and walks over to his mech, where he recieves a message from the Volarians. It is short and to the point. 'IE fleet 600,000 suits Raumhaifisch near Polaris I. 400,000 Volarian, unknown # allies. Assistance requested.' He turns on his com and sets it to his guild's command frequency. Mukuro: All combat and support units, report to your nearest slipgate group and prepare for heavy fighting. We will be joining the Volarians and others against an IE assault on Polaris I. Mukuro switches to a protected channel. Mukuro: Are the stations finished? Engineer: One through four are fully functional; five is in the final reconstruction stages. Mukuro: Good. Be ready to send all of them. He closes the channel, joins the ships and mecha that are massing in high orbit, and hails the Volarians. DeathscytheX - 27 Apr 2003 05:51 pm Post subject: IC: Rob slept as the UX headed towards Polaris.. he couldnt take a jumpgate.. they were all shut down except the ones the IE needed to get to Polaris. He dreamed of the past. ====DREAM===== Hiroko: You stay here! I need to save the six other suits! Rob: Hurry - it's going to explode soon. -------------------------------------- Mukuro: Hello, I am Mukuro, and am head of a guild. We are at the location of the ruins of the Ozma base, and saw you as the only signal within range. Hiroko: Ahh, I see. You don't have anyone outside of suits do you? That place is crawling with radiation - a nucleur fusion reactor just blew up! Anyways, what is your business. Mukuro: We are investigating what happened here. Why are the Leviathan and the Dreadnought - not to mention the Alexander according to intelligence all within the same system? -------------------------------------- Auriana: You IE won't return to base with me alive. -------------------------------------- Auriana: that's project x isnt it?... the real one. Rob: what makes you say that? Auriana: I have never seen a suit get blasted to that degree and survive... even at taht state u had as much armor left as a standard IE suit! Hiroko's suit is special Indeed, but there is something mysterious about yours... Rob: its probably just the all blackness. forget about it. Auriana: you have much pain in you.. I can sense it... your mind sends me signals.. you can open up to me if you want.. who are you? -------------------------------------- Denethor: I wish to talk to the pilot of the mobile suit that just docked here. Rob: On what grounds? Denethor: I share the same idea's on the Intergalatic Enforcement Agency of the Federation.. I am a wanted Mercinary.. and would very much like to meet the pilot of the X. My name is Denethor.... Gordon: hes telling the truth. he is on the IE's bounty list with you.. a few numbers below you but he is wanted up there pretty high. -------------------------------------- Rob: Pilot, Identify yourself Lev: just call me Lev Rob: Lev... *the news clip of the disupute in russia renewed in his had more clearly this time* hey your that guy tha.. -------------------------------------- Rob: Shiva! take off! get us off this planet! Shiva: cannot comply, you are not the authorized pilot of this vessel. Rob: Dammit shiva we dont have time for this, scan the planet, if you dont get us off here, you will be scrap along with me. Hiroko is gone! now GO!! Shiva: Very well -------------------------------------- Lady: your that young man I saw on TV yesterday arent you? Rob: I get that alot Lady: no.. no you are.. I saw you on TV Man: yeah your Rob Opsulous! Boy: it is it is!! -------------------------------------- Rob: Hiroko?! what the hell is wrong with you?! Hatsuma: How dare you call me that name, That low class amature shouldnt be mentioned in my presence. Rob: you! Hatsuma: Indeed. Rob: where is Hiroko? Hatsuma: Dead for all I know, last time I saw him we were the size of action figures, I happend to get back to my original form, I doubt he knew how to do so, for all I care he probably got stepped on. -------------------------------------- Hiroko (Trying to pull off the nearest addon): How could you!?! (puts weight into yanking it of but slips off and falls on the floor) You've ruined it!! (Kicking addon CPU) Rob: Um. Shiva: Dude what the hell are you doing? Hiroko (stopped fom tearing stuff up): Sh-shiva? Shiva: Rob, what's this fruit's prob? Rob: Uh oh.. -------------------------------------- Rob: IE Battlecruiser Thunderforge.. This is the Dreadnaught.. come in TF: WHAT?! The Dreadnaught?! impossilble!! -------------------------------------- Rob: Hiroko?? Did you escape? Hiroko: ... Rob: Hello? Talk to me!! Hiroko: You bastard - you killed my father and now you want me to talk to you like we're friends or something? Rob: That was Hatsuma! -------------------------------------- Auriana: so have you heard from Hiroko? Rob:........ Auriana: Rob? are you ok? Rob: he is the one who destoryed my suit Auriana:... but you said.. Rob: I know what i said! *angerly* He blew my ass up! Auriana: Hiroko.. *tears up* why?.. there must be some mistake.. Rob it had to be that other suit. that other guy.. Rob: No. i defeated him shortly before this happend, It was hiroko.. he blamed me for the death of his father and just attacked me out no where.. Auriana: *sobs* NO!! I wont believe it! Rob: Dammit! Im not making this up! -------------------------------------- Rob: HOOOOOOLLYYYYY SH--I-I-I-T!!! *stops and gasps for air*... daaaaaamnn!! HA HAAA!! woo!!! hell yes! hmm lets see.. ah all ammo is full except for napalm pods.. cant have thoes sitting in there for years they will corrode so that makes since.. -------------------------------------- Rob: Don’t u know who I am? Hmhehehhm. Hiroko: Impossible! I killed you! I watched you DIE! Rob: Did you think you could kill me? My my.. look at you, you pathetic bastard.. you traitor.. sellout.. I could kill you right now! *The UX slams its fist into the chest making a big indent shorting out all the monitors on the Hotaru-2 leaving Hiroko blind as he started bleeding from the forhead.* Rob: what would Auriana think of you? You betrayed her.. and she thought you loved her.. -------------------------------------- Rob: hault Denethor... Denethor: what... that voice.. it cant be. Rob: sorry I been gone for so long.. I kicked satans ass and he sent me back. *both laugh* ==================== UXC: Rob, there seems to be 2 massive groups of units headed towards teh battle.. Rob: *yawn* stats? UXC: one is the Crimson Star Guild.. the other one is unknown.. Rob: ah.. Mukuro.. excellent. Strider Hiryu - 29 Apr 2003 08:09 am Post subject: (Well looks like I should get back into this before it ends.) *Denethor is sitting in the ruins of the blytz base after saving Ayami* Defiance: Denethor I have revieved a message from Rob. It seems that the Polarian militia and what ever other resistance fighters that they can find are heading to Polaris I to do battle with the IE. Denethor: Well then we should get going there. Rob's gonna need all the help he can get and if that new weapon that Spike was making for me is done we should be fine. Defiance: Right. Shall I start the TDW reactor? Denethor: Yes. Are you ready Ayami cause we're going to be joining a very bloody battle? Ayami: As long as I'm with you I don't care. Denethor: Alright. Jump to Mars first. *The Defiant disappears and reappears on Mars* Spike: Your back. Denethor: Yes and I don't have much time to talk. Is that weapon done yet? Spike: Oh yes I just finished it. Its not very stable and can only be shot once before it overloads itself. Denethor: Well thats to be expected since its harnessing the power of a micro black hole. Alright the I'll be taking it and be gone. Spike: Right. Just make sure you survive the battle and come back to us. Denethor: Don't worry. I don't plan on dying anytime soon. *The Defiant picks up the new weapon and then disappears. The Defiant reappears near Polaris I but just out of the IE's sensor range* Denethor: Alright Definace scan for any signs of the Polarians and Volarians and also scan for Rob and the UX. Defiance: Right......I have located the fleet with the addition of some other Guild or something with them. Denethor: Ah that must be Mukuro and his guild. Well lets head toward the battlefield. Defiance: Right. *Defiant heads toward the battlefield* DeathscytheX - 29 Apr 2003 04:49 pm Post subject: IC: The UX catches up with the Crimson Star guild Rob: Mukuro this is Rob Mukuro: Rob?! wtf? you're alive?! Rob: yeah.. long story.. we dont have time for that... I need you to come up behind the IE when you arrive Mukuro: but we dont have enough fire power to support another side comapred to the volairans. Rob: Dont worry.. you'll get support from the Dreadnaught which is cloaked right now on that side.... the IE doesnt know its there... just the levianthan and 200 starcrusiers are in the IEs view. It looks like hiroko and auriana have rounded up a bunch of people too. Mukuro: Hiroko 0-o.. but.. Rob: ugh.... another long story.. look just do it.. Mukuro: you got it... btw is that suit.. Rob: yes.. it is.. ill see you there. The UX flashes by the guild on to Polaris Rob: almost there. Vyper - 30 Apr 2003 06:06 pm Post subject: Hiroko: Well, Auriana, it will start within fifteen minutes.. Auriana, I just want to tell you in case I die.. Auriana: Hiroko. :: Auriana grabs Hiroko and kisses him and they lay down on the couch and begin making out :: Rob: Hiroko, this is Rob. I have met with the Crimson Guild and... [Rob has a jealous look] :: Rob ends the transmission :: This goes on for another fifteen minutes, when Hiroko hears an explosion. They both jump up and look at the monitors; as some of the ships entered the range of the Raumhaifisch they were instantly shot down. It had also begun firing at the Volarian fleet. The Volarians began firing back. Auriana: Hiroko.. if we make it through this we'll go a step further when you get back.. Hiroko: Okay. Hiroko gets on the broadcasting frequency. Hiroko: Charge! Do not directly go after the Raumhaifisch; you will not get past the hypershield and you will be left open to attack! I will take care of the hypershield! DeathscytheX - 30 Apr 2003 07:41 pm Post subject: IC: Rob Arrived to see the battle has begun. Rob: Damn fei couldnt you have waited just a bit longer? Fei: Sorry, that fleet of vigilantes came from no where. Do we uncloak yet? Rob: No.. wait for the crimson star guild to arrive, you will support them with the Dreadnaughts might. Fei: I dont know how long the Levainthan can last by itself with just our basic ships. Rob: It will have to do.. they are almost here. Rob pulls out the anti-matter staff as suits pour out of the Raumhaifisch. The UX unleashes swarmers on the helpless undocking suits taking out quite a few, then quickly turns around and slashes a suit in half that tried to sneak up behind him. Rob:.. Blytz!... crap! they are here too. they must have even more numbers now!.. *thinks: man.. Mukuro better hurry, this is getting bad* Volarian suits fill space as one of the greatest battles in the history of the universe was about to take its corse. Vyper - 30 Apr 2003 08:09 pm Post subject: Hiroko and Auriana ran into the hangar, when the Zanzabar shook violently and they were thrown against the wall; they had just been hit hard by the Raumhaifisch. Hiroko: Good thing Rob upgraded the armor... else we'd be toast! Shiva: Losing power and life support in 10..9...8......(voice getting lower and slower)7..................6................. They hurried and got in their suits. Hiroko: Boot up stupid thing!! The screen turned on. Several logos appeared and dissapeared. Auriana's started much quicker. Auriana: It's probably taking awhile because the system is in beta. Shiva: 2.......1..................... The lights went out and oxygen stopped flowing. The lights went out. Another blast shook the Zanzabar. Hiroko: Sorry, Shiva... Hiroko blast through the door, and Auriana followed. The amount of suits at one time was unprecedented. He hadn't even witnessed this in a simulator; it would crash the computer. They were instantly greeted by three blytz. Hiroko zipped to a different location, and they fired where he used to be. Auriana: What is that?!? Hiroko: Time warp technology at it's finest..I move so fast even the targeting sensors think I'm there for a minute. Hiroko zipped directly behind each one, slicing clean through their suits with no difficulty. One more blytz appeared behind Auriana and pulled out it's beam sabre, her completely unaware. Hiroko zipped above him and unloaded plasma vulcans on the blytz. Hiroko: Auriana... Auriana: Yes? Hiroko: Im sorry... you need to leave this battle. It's too dangerous and you are far too important to go around in your suit. Auriana: No! I will stay with you always! Hiroko: Please forgive me. Hiroko punched the Feuerfrei in the face, causing all of Auriana's sensors to go out. He shoved it into the Zanzabar and pointed it at Mars, and gave a powerful boost into the Zanzabar and headed further into the battle. DeathscytheX - 30 Apr 2003 08:23 pm Post subject: IC: Rob: Hiroko, any ideas how to get that shield down? Hiroko: Yeah, it has to be done on the inside.. but I dont know how to get in. Rob: yeah.... wait! Hiroko, the sheild has to go down when suits are released! Hiroko: yeah.. your right! Rob: Ok... I will cover you next time the suits come out.. you just make sure you get inside.. Suits start to pour out of the Ruamhaifisch again Rob: GET READY!!! The UX unloads and empties out its bays with all of its swarmer missiles and seismic mines left. Vyper - 30 Apr 2003 08:38 pm Post subject: Hiroko quickly thrusts towards the Raumhaifisch as suits flood out of it, and is overwhelmed at the sheer amount of them. Swarmer missiles streak past him and find their targests. The fresh suits soon begin firing at Hiroko. Soon seismic mines explode way too close for safe proximity, and Hiroko is thrown from the shockwaves. He realized they have a blinking red light, but with all the lasers and their size it was far too difficult to find them all. He pulled out his beam sabres and began warp-hacking away, confusing the crap out of the suits and their systems. Computer: Time until hypershield returns to former state: ten seconds. Hiroko began rampantly thrusting towards the Raumhaifisch but six suits stopped him with their suits and grabbed him. His suit was far superior but their combined strength restrained him. Soon Rob picked them off one by one. Computer: 5 Seconds until Hypershield regains former state. Hiroko: Activate overboost. Hiroko began the overboost, but a seismic mine exploded and turned him almost completely around. Hiroko: Nooo!! Computer: 2 Seconds until Hypershield activation. Another suit approached him at a fast speed as the systems almost completed preparing the overboost. The overboost activated, and he grabbed the limb and use the suit to swing him around, heading straight for the Raumhaifisch. Computer: Hypershield Reactivated. Hiroko barely made it inside of the shield. He warp-dashed to the side of the Raumhaifisch where he wouldn't be detected. Rob: You're on your own from here on, man. DeathscytheX - 30 Apr 2003 08:54 pm Post subject: IC: Hikoro: Dont get yourself killed. Rob: dont worry about me, you get that sheild down, good luck. UXC: Crimson Star Guild in the proximity. Rob: Fei NOW!! The Dreadnaught uncloaks and unleashes hell on the Alexander, it blew up within seconds of the attack. ------------IE---------------- Tatics officer: Sir! the Alexander has been destoryed! Vindysil: WHAT IS THIS?! The Dreadnaught?! where the hell did that come from! Hatsuma looks at the ship status monitor, and walks towords the bridge exist. Vindysil: where the hell do you think you are going Hatsuma?! Hatsuma: shut your trap.. i have business to take care of.. the fate of this war is at stake *exits promptly* Vyper - 30 Apr 2003 09:38 pm Post subject: Hiroko: Scan all 'blind' entrances. Computer: No blind entranes found. Hiroko: I guess we'll have to make one then. Hiroko pulled out his Fusion Particle Beam Cannon, and began charging it. He flew up to one of the corridors and knocked. The door slid open with an unsuspecting suit. Suit: How'd you get through the RUALLLLGH!!! The beam shot through the corridor and cleared everything within. He slowly made his way through the corridor, and detected a huge amount of mobile suits; they were gathering for the next wave. Hiroko slowly hover-moved through the corridor, and threw a flash mine down there. Organizer: What the.. AHHH!! The mine goes off and releases a blinding flash, disabling all the suits sensors. They don't live long before they're pelted to death by plasma vulcan rounds. Hiroko zooms down the corridor and arrives in the primary hanger where throusands of suits can be found. Pilots rush to their suits but most don't make it as Hiroko shoots down the elevated platform. Hiroko switched to rapid fire and slayed the other active suits. Computer: Vessel schematics aquired. Hiroko: You sure are useful.. now tell me where the hypershield generator is. The computer shows a small wireframe map in the corner of his screen, and indicates the quickest route is through a duct that leads to that hangar. Hiroko thrusted to where the cockpit was level with the duct, and Hiroko cocked his Uzis and pulled off the duct guard. Computer: Good luck, Hiroko. DeathscytheX - 01 May 2003 05:57 pm Post subject: IC: The UX transformed, as Rob saw 4 suits come at him, he slashed one in half across the torso, spun, slashed another one in half vertically, jammed the staff into anothers cockpit and swung it around bashing it into the last suit making them explode.. this all happend in less 2 seconds. Rob then boosted up and fired Ion missiles at the Liberators comuniatcion towers, turned around and chainguned a suit that was beating a Volarian suit badly. The volarian suit was instantly destoryed by a Blytz destoryer. Rob pulled out the XPR and destoryed it with a single shot. the UX's hypersheilds went up deflecting lazer blasts from suits everywhere. Rob: This is insane... there so many freakin units *watches as some IE midclass crusiers hit IE suits and even IE suits hit blytzs suits and even some volarian friendly fire*.. there so many they are even hitting each other on accident.. its hard to tell who is who! The Crimson Star guild starts to attack from behind, the Dreadnaught broadsides the Liberator with ionic mega warheads, and all its laser turrets. Vyper - 01 May 2003 06:46 pm Post subject: Liberator: PsshshHShshhhh.. Raumhai...psh.... we are under attack....naught cloaked... ease send ...pshhh... dust Raumhaifisch: This is Raumhaifisch.. we read you. Sending profile dust. The IE sent several large warheads at the invisible source of the lasers. They exploded, and shiny dust flew everywhere and stuck to the Dreadnaught. Vindysil: Send Ionic Warheads at the Dreadnaught! ----------- Hiroko opened the other end of the duct, and was suprised to find there was nobody guarding the Hypershield Generator. There he aw a huge, bulky box the size of a semi, and a large thick service door next to it. Hiroko still had an ID number for the short time he was with the IE. Hiroko opened the door. Hiroko: Hmm.. I'm suprised they didn't get rid of that ID number. -At Bridge- Operator: Sir, someone has used Hiroko's ID to get into the Hypersheild Generator. Vindysil: Send the special ops. -At Hypershield Generator- Hiroko walks in to the generator, and the room is sweltering. On top of the generator is a large heatsink, and an array of three fans. Hiroko pulled out three clay mines from his trenchcoat, and stuck them on the middle section of the rapidly moving fans. He hurriedly jumped down and ran out of the room as they exploded, and one fan flew off and dug deep into the wall. He was instantly greeted by twelve special operations men with assault rifles surrounding him. Special Ops leader: Sorry, Hiroko, we aren't capturing you again this time :: sneers :: Computer: Critical Heat levels reached in Hypersheild Generator. Shut down? Special Ops leader: ..Y- Hiroko: Sorry, guys, this thing's exploding. Special Ops: What?! Hiroko pulls out an Uzi and they raise their weapons at him. He shoots holes in the computer and it explodes. The generator continues to heat. Soon the hypershield can be seen warping and holes appearing, widening and closing. The circular hypersheild turns into a multifaceted prism (like a soccer ball) and different sides eventually dissapear. The special ops shoot the Uzis out of his hands. Special Ops Leader: You have done us enough trouble, Hiroko. Now close your eyes and say your prayers. Hiroko closes his eyes. He thinks 'I have helped to win this war.' -Raumhaifisch Hangar- A crew member walks into the hangar to see the Hotaru 3. He begins to run from it as gunfire echoes out of the duct. DeathscytheX - 01 May 2003 06:54 pm Post subject: OOC: WOO HOO! 400 Replies! IC: all the warheads slam into the hypershield, and the Dreadnaughts hypershield goes out. Fei: wth happend?! Tatical: Sir, we werent able to repair the generator fully from the last battle, it just gave out.. Rob: Fei! attack the ruamhaifisch!! Fei: What?! have you gone mad? with what! Rob: ITS HYPERSHEILD IS DOWN!! Fei: Shit! why didnt u say so in the 1st palce! ALL WEAPONS TARGET THE RAUMHAIFISCH!!!!!!!! evasive manvuers.. watch out for thoes warheads, focus all fire from turrets on intercepting incomming missiles.. DO NOT LET ONE GET THOUGH! The 2 largest ships in the fleet begin battle.. The UX takes out 7 suits with its staff in the matter of seconds.. Rob: dammit.. where is Denethor?! Vyper - 01 May 2003 09:32 pm Post subject: Hiroko stops ducking, to see all of the special ops dead, and Hatsuma standing with an assault rifle in the passage. Hatsuma: Fools. They should know killing you is my job. The MX-Z23 bursts through by itself behind Hatsuma, and Hatsuma jumps in. Hiroko runs and Hatsuma's vulcans barely miss Hiroko as he runs around the wall into the hangar to see a large group of people staring at the Hotaru 3. He pulls out his Uzis and kills them all. Hatsuma bursts through the wall. Hiroko jumps in the cockpit. Strider Hiryu - 02 May 2003 08:00 am Post subject: *The Defiant appears not to far away from the UX* Denethor: Hey Rob. Sorry I'm late but I tried to get here as fast as possible. Hey the Ruamhaifisch is here. Well this is a good time to use my Vector Cannon. Shadow Funnels attack all suit near me and protect this suit. Rob I'm gonna need you to try and keep enemies away from me as long as you can cause I need to let this cannon charge before I fire. *The Defiant starts to glow and huge gun parts begin to surround and place themselves on the Defiant* Defiance: Vector Cannon will be ready to fire in about 5 min. Denethor: Alright. This should be able to either destroy it or seriously damage it. *6 little spheres start rotating in front of the Defiant as it gathers energy* Vyper - 02 May 2003 11:52 am Post subject: OOC: Vector Cannon, eh? Someones been playing too much ZOE:2 DeathscytheX - 02 May 2003 02:06 pm Post subject: OOC: note the raumhaifisch is 10 miles long, probably only can do massive damage. to a section of the haul. Rob: Denethor.. aim for thoes doors there.. we need to limit how many suits it can deploy.. by hitting there you can take out many suits. Rob notices a IE midclass crusier headed to attack them both.. Rob brusts over to it and runs his staff straigh on the top slashing its haul right open, compromising its atificial atmosphere. the cruiser loses control and slams right into the Aries. Rob fires ion missiles taking out 2 more suits. He calls for volarian back up to protect Denethor. Rob:.. no... it cant be! Mass produced NV-MAD6's pour out of the severly damaged Liberator. Fei: Rob do u see that.. what the hell?! thats like fighting hundreds of you! Rob: I dont know?!.. they may have the suit.. but they dont have the piloting skills!!!!!!!!!!!!! RRUUULLAAAH!! Rob boosts down into the squad and slashes 3 of them in half with one pass, zips upward and jams the staff into another and activates the UX hypersheild frying it. Rob: they dont have hypersheilds.. hmp.. these suits are just mass produced pieces of crap. the UX dodges swamerer missiles with guidence jammers. and opens fire with the chainguns on the X clones.

Note that this will eat away at the life support. Denethor: Do it. *the Defiance transfers the power and heads into the battle against the suits* DeathscytheX - 04 May 2003 01:03 am Post subject: IE Tatics Officer: Sir the main hangar bays have been destoryed along with every mobile unit in them! Vindysil: damn.... prepare the gravitron cannon! The Dreadnaught pelts the underside of the Raumhaifisch with warheads and turret fire, and the Ruamhaifisch returns fire.. both are taking heavy damage on their outher hauls. the Raumhaifisch fires the gravitran cannon and the orb encricles a massive group of suits and crusiers of all sides.. they are all instantly crushed and destoryed. Rob: thoes bastards! Fei: Rob, we cant hold on like this forever, this thing is alot bigger than the dreadnaught.. plus that last blast took out 30% more of our units than it did theirs. we are even more outnumbered than before. Rob: dont give up... all we can do is keep fighting.. even if it means to the DEATH!!! Rob passes by 8 suits slashing them all with the staff, then turns around and fires ion missiles and 4 other suits. Rob: All units, watch out for the raumhaifisch's fire.. do not get caught into the orbs of light it fires. and watch out for the Anti-matter cannon also....... Mukuro.. I need you to go around the Raumhaifisch's haul and disable its nuclear launchers... make sure it wont beable to launch anything at Polaris.. its dangerous but you are the expert of sabotage.. we are counting on you.

Mukuro breaks away from the melee, cloaks, and cuts off his com. He finds an airlock door and anchors his mech on the ship nearby. Mukuro opens the door and finds a hallway on the other side with two guards. Guard: Who the f- Mukuro grabs the other guard's gun and clubs them both before he can finish his sentence. He drags them into the airlock and takes one of their uniforms, then dumps them outside.

All of our troops are under heavy attack and we couldn't get any from outside the battle since all resistance fighters are here. Ayame: Oh I see. Defiance: I can now use funnels again.

Defiance launch all funnels and destroy anything that tries to get past us. Also launch the Anti-matter missle pods and fire the Anit-Matter Swarm. Defiance: Right. *the funnels launch from the Defiant and attack any suit that tries to get past them. The anti-matter missle pods launch and launch and launch a huge swarm of micro anit-matter missles destroying nearly 350 suits and heavily damaging a few IE and Blytz ships* Defiance: Pods are now emptied. Power is holding but for how long I don't know. Use of the sniper rifle, plasma cannons, beam rail guns, vector cannon, and shadow shield is all out of the question. All thats available for use are the VSBR's, funnels, psiwave dischargers, and the dual shadow saber. Denethor: Alright make due with what we got. Start gathering my psienergy. We're going to fire off the dischargers. Defiance: Right. *four slots on the Defiant's torso open up and four bluish black orbs are noticed. The orbs start to glow as psienergy is gathered* Vyper - 08 May 2003 08:43 am Post subject: Hiroko fired at Hatsuma. Hatsuma returned fire. Hiroko glanced at the HUD with the status of the units.. only 160,000 rebels were left and 300,000 IE suits were left. Hiroko: I have to get out of here!! Hiroko boosts for the door but not before Hatsuma blows a hole above the thick, metal door that had been left open. The metal door falls straight down and gets stuck in front of the opening. Hiroko and Hatsuma both began strafing left, going around in a circle. Eight more IE suits move in. IE Suit Commander: Hiroko! Hatsuma! Surrender your suits at once! Hiroko's Computer: Hiroko.. it seems Hatsuma's suit is responding to this one. Hiroko: Huh? A large aura encompasses the two. The IE suits begin firing but the IE rounds bounce off the aura.

Rob: out of ammo.... *smerk* *rhythm emotion starts* Rob: alright you son of a bitches.... dont think it stops HERE!!!!!!!! Rob brusts up twirling the anti-matter staff and slices 3 units in half, jams the staff in anothers head, and then turns around and vertically slices another down the middle with the head unit still stuck on the staff. he dodges missles and smashes into another unit making its cockpit implode in the light atmosphere. more units were coming, the volarians, Rob, and Denethor were trying their best to hold them back but there were to many and they were slowly being pushed back into the atmosphere. Rob: i will kill all of you with melee if that is what it takes Rob flips over another unit while it was firing at him and jams the staff through the back fo the cockpit and then slings it down to a crashing death on the planets surface.

I will not lose to this scum. *The Defiant starts glowing a crimson red as more psienergy is collected from the increase in Denethor's emotions* Denethor: You will all die even if I have to kill myself. Defiance start converting all psienergy into energy for the plasma cannons. We're going to give them a little surprise. Defiance: That will most likely overload the TDW drive and cause an internal explosion. Denethor: Do it anyway. Defiance: As you wish but I suggest you let Ayame out before you do this. Denethor: Good point. Ayame: I will not leave. I'm staying with you even if it means my death. Denethor: As you wish. Now start converting the energy while I take out more suits. Send a message to Rob letting him know our plan. Defiance: Right. *Denethor in his rage starts taking out any enemy suits near him while the Defiant gathers his psienergy. The glowing around the Defiant is starting to turn a deep crimson red* Vyper - 09 May 2003 09:30 pm Post subject: Hiroko: I see you have a new suit. However mine is the newest and greatest! Hatsuma: Ha, you don't honestly think the IE would give a prisoner the best suit in the fleet. Hiroko: .... oh my god. Hatsuma: FOOL!! Not only is mine superior, but yours is designed to fuse with mine! Mine will have the dominant link! Hiroko: WHAT?! Hatsuma suddenly dissapeared. Hiroko: Where'd he go.. Hatsuma appeared directly behind him and clasped the hands on the Hotaru 3's forearms, binding them behind his back. Computer: (distorted) Armor level greatly decreasSinGnggg... Hiroko: Ahhh!! Particles began dissolving off of the MX-Z22 onto Hatsuma's suit, the MX-Z13. Hiroko stretched the hands forwards and clasped the chest. Hatsuma: Did I not tell you I have the dominant suit? You are helping the fusio.. [Sound of Metal Crushing] AHHH!! Hatsuma pulled the arms and grasped them with one and pulled out a beam sabre. It turned on. Hiroko boosted upwards, yanking the MX-Z11's arm and pulling him above and behind Hatsuma, pelting him with the shoulder vulcans the entire way. Hiroko boosted harder, and the arm could no longer grip the Hotaru 3. Hiroko pulled out his two beam sabres, and Hatsuma pulled out his. Hiroko warped in front of Hatsuma and slashed, but was barely blocked by Hatsuma. Hatsuma warped behind Hiroko but Hiroko warped below him. Hiroko fired his vulcans but missed, as Hatsuma warped out of their fire, right behind him. He slashed and made it several centimeters into the armor before Hiroko warped again. Hatsuma warped in front of Hiroko and came shooting for him, vulcans firing and beam sabres ready. Hiroko disapeared. Hatsuma waited for him to warp back into view, but he never did. Hatsuma: WHERE'D HE GO!?! Hatsuma's Computer: A Large Amount of Energy Has Been Detected. Hatsuma: Oh shit!! Hatsuma barely warped out of the way as the Fusion Particle Beam Cannon ripped through the ceiling.

Vyper - 12 Jun 2003 06:06 pm Post subject: Struggle in Cold Darkness Continuation OOC: I'm just gonna finish my characters' parts, DX. You can do the closing. IC: After barely dodging the blast, Hatsuma slid backwards, feet dragging on the floor and making a stream of sparks. Hiroko swooped down that hull and chased after him, also spraying sparks everywhere. Hiroko let go of the weapons and they automatically moved behind him. Then he pulled out his antimatter beam sabres and thrusted even faster. The sparks made a ton of smoke and it was hard for Hiroko to see. Suddenly Hatsuma shot a projectile from the chest, and it clamped on to the Hotaru 3's face. It stopped on the spot. The monitors and sensors all went out. Hiroko blindly tried to reach up and rip it off, but he wasn't having any success. The cockpit went dark. The indicators on the controls began to dim. Hiroko put on his helmet shortly before the oxygen cut out. He opened the door to see Hatsuma with his Hyper Partcle Beam cannon, charging up to its full extent. Hiroko: Ah crap! He quickly looked up to see a cylinder about 1/3 the size of the suits head stuck in it, with claws digging into it, and energy pulsing through the claws. He pulled out his gun and shot out a box on it hoping it'd do something. The energy stopped pulsing, and the systems turned back on. Hiroko ran into his cockpit and hurriedly slammed it shut, then thrusted upwards as fast as possible. The huge blast from the Hyper Particle Cannon missed the initial target but effortlessly ripped off the left leg. The blast hit the old frigate they were fighting in's fuelselage and nuclear generator. It seemed to them like it was exploding in slow motion. The blast would rip them to shreds for sure. Soon the blast had engulfed them, but they weren't dead. Hiroko/Hatsuma: What the.. A hypershield engulfed them. Soon after the shock left they were violently thrown towards New Polaris's atmosphere with the explosion. The shock from the explosion had temporarily disabled their systems and they couldn't fight. --Meanwhile-- Aurianna was finally able to start her system inside of the hurtling disabled vessel. She thrusted out. Aurianna: I can sense great emotional distress in Hiroko..Oh no!! Aurianna was some 500 miles from the battlefield now. She could see New Polaris, and that units were descending through the atmosphere by the burning dots. But then she saw a huge red line cut through where the rest were dots. Aurianna: That has to be them. Set to overboost. Concealed thrusters emerged from the main unit of her mech, and she raced for the battlefield at an awesome rate. ------------------ Their monitors activated again and they could see they were racing almost horizontally through the atmosphere now. The climate control hadn't activated yet so there was extreme heat, almost 140 degrees with his space suit's climate control. He tried to pull the Hyper Particle Beam Cannon from behind, but his arm was thrown limply backwards from the force of moving at such a high speed. Suddenly the alarms inside went on. A beacon behind his seat made the room flash red. An alert on the screen read 'THRUSTER SAFE HEAT IS DRAMATICALLY EXCEDED' Just five seconds later both of their booster backs exploded, throwing them at each other, in the extreme velocity, causing them to be helplessly tangled together, unable to pull themselves apart. Soon they escaped the atmosphere. They would hit the ground in just 15 seconds. The Hotaru 3's head flew off. Hiroko: I guess this is it. Soon the shaking stopped. They had broken through the atmosphere, both of them now waiting for the inevitable impact and death. Out of the dark deathrap that was the cockpit, a small indicator turned on inside of their cockpits. Hatsuma: So something's still working.. Hiroko merely looked at it and sighed. The indicator read stall. Hatsuma thought, 'If that light's on there must be power to the rest of that section..' he wiped blood off of the other lights, and they too were activated. One read Parachute and had a light on that said prepped. There was also an altimeter. They'd hit in 6 seconds. Hatsuma: May as well give it a shot.. I wonder where they keep the parachute. He pulled a lever located on one of the control panels, and a parachute deployed from the lower back of the core. It dramatically slowed down the rate at which they were descending, but it wouldnt slow them down nearly enough. Both mechs shuddered from the decrease in speed, and the Hotaru 3 threatened to let loose from the derelict mechs. Hatsuma read the Altimeter. They would hit in two seconds. Hatsuma braced himself. Hiroko was unaware of what was happening. A huge mushroom cloud overlooked the city after the huge collision. The collision caused a shockwave. Citizens wondered, 'Did the IE nuke us?' and soon fled the city in terror. Panic struck, and there were traffic jams. A bright red streak in the air could be seen in the air where Auriana was heading for them. Soon after the sound of the collision dissapated, an ominous sound of heavy metal crunching could be heard. Hatsuma and Hiroko were in shock for a moment. Auriana upon making it through the atmosphere changed from a diving position to a standing position, feet towards the ground, and deployed parachutes. Hiroko recovered from the shock and tried to stand up in the mech on the floor, and promptly fell over. His limbs had no feeling whatsoever and felt like he could barely move them. He pressed the hatch release and the door opened two feet. He got back up and barely managed to push it open. He jumped out and fell on the floor. He found they had made a 150 foot deep crater. Auriana made it past the clouds. She used her terminal and zoomed in on the crater. Auriana: Ohhh noo..Hir-huh? She saw a small lifeform barely moving. She zoomed further, and saw a pixely display of him moving to the other mech. Then she saw the other hatch get kicked open and Hatsuma jump down and kick Hiroko across the face mid-jump. Auriana gasped. She looked at her Altimeter and she still had a minute left. Hiroko flew back onto the hot mech and wiped blood from his mouth. He propped his foot against the mech and lunged at Hatsuma, pushing him down. Hatsuma weakly punched Hiroko in the face, and Hiroko returned with a hook across his face, breaking his jaw. In the searing pain, Hatsuma kicked Hiroko in the crotch, lifting him up in the air over him, and landing a foot away. Hatsuma jumped up and got the stunned Hiroko by the feet, and swung him around, and smashed him hard into his mech. Hiroko fell face-up, and Hatsuma drop-kicked him in the stomach. Then he noticed a broken wire handing out of a join in the Hotaru 3's leg. He dragged Hiroko over there and tied the wires around both of his hands and mercilessly electrocuted him. Hatsuma pulled him out of it, and noticed his eyes. Hatsuma: Barely alive, eh? Hatsuma looked back and saw that the Hotaru 3 and the MX-723 were fusing. Oh, I'm sorry, I have a battle to save. He grabbed Hiroko's arm with both of his hands and swung him into the cockpit of the Hotaru 3, throwing him into one of the monitors, busting shards of glass all over him. Hatsuma pushed the cockpit shut, and ran up to the MX-723's suit, and jumped in the cockpit barely before the melding temporarily covering the cockpit. Auriana landed in the crater, where all was left was a huge roundish metal case 1 1/2 times the size of a normal suit. Auriana: Where'd they go? Soon a red line ran down the front of the case formed, and the case began peeling open. Light poured out of the gash in the case. Soon the gap got large enough that she could see the suit inside. It was nothing she'd ever seen before. It stood up. Auriana cautiously pulled out her twin antimatter beam sabres. Hatsuma was standing in a blank white construct inside of the suit. Soon the white disappeared and all he could see was a panorama of everything around him, so signs of a suit or his own body standing in it. Hatsuma grinned at Auriana. It opened up perfectly stock concealments where it unleashed a huge payload on Auriana, the size of what might be found on a battlecruiser. She dodged the first three warheads but was hit by all the rest. Auriana: Why am I still alive? Unbeknownst to Auriana, her suit was scratchless. When the 'smoke' cleared the suit was up in her face and right before she lost all sensors she saw a huge blade cut across the air, making a huge ripple. In that ripple she could see a slightly altered version of the city they were in. The NV-MAD9 fell to the floor. He prepared the blade for a Coup De Gráce and thrusted downwards on the cockpit but came to a halt. Hatsuma: What the heck? Hiroko: Did you honestly think you were alone? Hatsuma: What? But theres only one cockpit! Hiroko: Yes, and theres only one body as well. Hatsuma: WHAT!?!?! Hiroko: Obviously you hadn't looked into the fusion as much as I had. Regardless, I have a score to settle with the IE. Hatsuma: Hiroko, I have something to tell you too. Hiroko: Don't start with some crap you want to convince me to side with you. Hatsuma: Oh, no, Hiroko. I just wanted to say we have the same father. The Body of Hiroko and Hatsuma Gasped (all of this is the same body yelling at itself in the cockpit) Hatsuma: Yes, my mother died, and soon after your father, I say your because I am disgusted and will not accept him as my father, he is merely a vehicle of genes, he eloped with a Polarian woman soon after. Just three months, it was like he completely forgot about her. As soon as he had YOU, he completely forgot about me, I mean, I'm just a lowly human right? You have half Polaris blood! So, I ran away to the IE military academy and learned how much control one can have over so many lives, and ultimately arranged for the kidnapping of your mother. Last time I checked two years ago she's a sex slave on some backwater planet. Hiroko: You bastard... Several large openings appeared on the legs and on the back of the core, and huge flares errupted, and it shot off for the battlefield at 1/18th the speed of light. (Railgun speed) Hiroko/Hatsuma felt no pressure whatsoever because of the suits built in compensation. OOC: I'll let myself get some more ideas.

Rob looked down beathing heavly, sweat powered down his face, his kill count was almost 1000 units, 357 of them melee exicution. The Dreadnaught and Raumhafisch were in the atmosphere, hovering above the Polarian captial city. Rob laughed hard Denethor thought he had lost his mind, Rob opened his com on all frequencies.. Rob: Idiots... as you may see you have left all your units out here on polaris.. and for what? I know why.. you are afraid of the Polarian's gift of wisdom and leadership. you know very well they could run the federation much more organized.. i read it in your files when i 1st destoryed the dreadnaught. I found out you plans to take Polaris. Thats why i was there. I just didnt expect that hellaious thing of a ship to arrive. While you try to wipe out this outstanding race of people, the Volarine force... or you could say the VGE, is now taking your home planets HQ, the Viceroy is under military arrest, and the IE will be disguarded. *opens frequences to local news stations*. Vindysil watches the monitors on the Raum light up with news displays. Rob: Surrender now, your battle is meaningless. Vindysil: bastard, We will never step down we will finish what we came to DO!! charge up the antimatter cannon... 200% overload! Tactical: but sir taht could destory us all and this planet. the cannon's power would vaporize the planet crust and hit the core! Vindysil: FOOL! *pulls out gun and shoots the tactical officer* Vindysil takes the controls himself. as some of the IE suits surrender and some still fight but confused on the current situation the Volarian forces started to gain the upperhand for the 1st time. Rob: Fei.. you have to stop him!! Fei: I dunno if we can Rob, we are badly damaged all we have is our turrets. Rob: dammit! fire them all at thoes cannons!!!! IE advisor: Vindysil. sir... the reactor cores will be very vunlerable if hit while the cannon charges to that magnitude. I suggest you order remaining units to take defensive posistions... UXC: Rob, the reactors are highly unstable on the ruamhaifisch... maybe if they dreadnaught focused there attack there... Rob: impossible, the haul is too thick for turrents. UXC: maybe if they rammed it Rob: that could work.. but all thoes people.... UXC: the whole planet.. there is another alternative..... Strider Hiryu - 14 Jun 2003 09:48 pm Post subject: Denethor: Rob I think I can take it down without sacrificing anybody but myself. If I allow my TDW reactor to go critical the resulting explosion should destroy the ship. With all of the psienergy my suit has collected it if my suit does explode it will incur a huge energy wave that may destroy alot of allies. I have lived long enough to learn that sacrificing your life for something like this is not always good but I am prepared to give my life for our cause and I have nothing left to live for anymore for my ppl are gone and I wish to join them in their eternal rest. The only thing keeping me back is knowing that bastards like these rule the universe and that my love is still here. So what do you say can I go through with this little plan or what? (if you can't already notice I kinda want to kill off my character to end my part of this story but I will go with whatever you have planned to end this) DeathscytheX - 14 Jun 2003 10:20 pm Post subject: OOC: i was planing on ending it a bit differently, and having you and ur love interest live actually i didnt know if u were interested so i was gonna finish out ur character for you. Rob gains a stern look on his face as units take defensive posistions around the criticle locations of the ship Rob: no.. the ship cannot actually be destoryed with a shot, its just too damn big, which is also an unseen advanatage, we will let gravity destory it... it just has to be hit badly, and plumet to the ground, I cannot allow you do pull of something that will take out any more of our comrades. at the price of victory. This must be done my me... The IE is mine, My father was killed ruthlessly for no good reason by them. they had to right to take his life... just as they put an end to him.. I will finish them off, I have the answer to how it can be done. the UX drops its anti-matter staff. Rob: computer activate sequnces, *opens com* Fei, get rid of thoes suits that are defending the Raumhaifisch... all units assist the Dreadnaught, I need these areas cleared............ Denethor... you have someone who loves you, and you love her, you must live your life happly with her... when this is all done..... dont fight anymore, dont be a mech pilot anymore.. you have a future, have a family... heh.... you would make a good father i think. dont let your kids pilot. You are a good man Denethor. Rob burstes up above the Raumhaifisch and gets a top down veiw of it, aruania and hiroko/Hatsuma noticed as the UX stopped in midair and looked down upon the Ruamhaifisch. Fei: what is he doing...

It's not like they can arrest me anyways, they wouldn't arrest a hero bwhahaha.. may as well have some fun Hiroko: Abuh?! The Thunderbird soared right past the back of the Ultra X, and towards a small firefight behind some remaining Volarians and a new squad of IE reinforcements. Within seconds the Thunderbird was effortlessly tearing through Volarian suits. Hiroko: What are you doing?? Hiroko/Hatsuma banged his head on the center console. Hatsuma: That freakin hurt, man! Hiroko: Trust me, I know ¬.¬ Soon the Thunderbird stopped and charged right into the IE suits, who had not open fire because they though it was helping them, and soon it was the IE who were getting the crap kicked out of them. Hatsuma/Hiroko grinned. Hatsuma: Bah, I'll let you have your fun since this war is already over. Rob: Hiroko what are you doing? Hatsuma: Having fun Rob: Hiroko you sadistic bastard.. *shakes head* Strider Hiryu - 14 Jun 2003 11:00 pm Post subject: Denethor thinks about what Rob had just said to him.

Plasma Finger sequence engage! the UX begins to plunge towards the the Ruam at a dangerously accelerating rate, the cockpit started jarring violently as Rob felt his body being crushed against the seat from the tremedonous G-forces, it was even worse than the 1st tiem now that he was in a planet and not in zero g. Fei: that crazy bastard is gonna kill himself! As rob speeds down toward the Raumhaifisch his father flashes through his head, then soon after all of his friends. the UX slams through the haul of the Ruamhaifisch, armor parts flying everywhere from the suit and the ship, half of Robs monitors went out as the burning hand of the UX gripped the unstable reactores. Asst. Tactical: 200% critical mass reached sir we cant hold it for much longer Vindysil: FIRE! Rob: *blood runs down the side of he head and ear* die.... *the hand melts and crushed though the reactor* A huge explosion occures as a huge chunk flies out of the Ruamhaifisch. the ship cracks in half but doesnt break, the boosters go out and it begines to plumet to the ground.

Gordon sits in his shop and a the door opens and someone walks in, his eyes get big as he drops his tools, tears flow down his face, Rob smiles as he holds his ribs in pain and is bloodied in the face. somehow surving Rob helped gordon out with his work, under a different name, they went to the barely known Iosalous III and set up shop, to repair ships and freighters.
