fight for a future

OOC: We ain't escaping that easily XD. Im really sorry, but can i gmod slightly for the plotline? If not, ill edit it back.

Yurov growled as he saw the blood spurt from Jimmy's head. His friend slumped onto the LMG, its suppressive fire cut off suddenly from the cockpit. Like any untrained amateur, Yurov changed targets to the sniper and at that moment, the girl in the cockpit slipped out on the other side and dashed behind the dune.

FUCK! Everyone. Pin those S.O.Bs down. and cut off their escape. I want them dead! We ain't lettin' noone take our prize from us!

A chorus of "yea" and barbaric cries echoed through their own mics and the fire increased. Little did they know,that it was futile, laying down suppressive fire for their own guys to move forward. The three were already making their way to the VTOL.

Just as Fabiola skidded down towards bottom of the snow dune, the gunny and Mary had begun their mad dash. As useless as they were at shooting, with their numbers, it was possible a stray might hit.

300....250....200..150....we're gonna make it....

A deafening roar just a meter overhead caused Fabiola to stumble. By the time she had looked back up from the snow, one of the Hornet's VTOL engines took a hit. It didnt seem unrepairable with what they had, but the unknown assailants had porbably already begun to climb the snow dune. They would not have enough time to fix and fly away.

Damnit. We can't stand here! Run to that outcrop over there. We should be able to reach it before they see us.


 
OOC: That's fine

IC:
Damnit. We can't stand here! Run to that outcrop over there. We should be able to reach it before they see us.

Mary told the Gunney, "Cover our backs as we fall back."

"Yes Ma'am" The Gunnery Sargent aimed his Assault Rifle downrange as well.

With the enemy assault forces coming in and chasing after them, Mary took the front while the Gunney did as he was told and covered the rear. As such, Mary was the first person behind the outcrop.
 
Stephen looked deep into Zeria's eyes "Don't worry, you will be alright, i promise" Stephen informed her, a gentle and loving tone in his voice "they will have the Blitz fixed up in no time." Stephen was hoping that Zeria would become healthy soon. he stood up and looked down on her "Don't worry about it" then the Ship's inner com system "In Comming unkown mobile suit, all hands battle stations, Pilots to their suits" Stephen looked up at the tannoy and then over to the doctor "She doesn't move" he barked at the doctor.

Stephen left the infirmary and headed to the hangar, pushing the button on the com in his ear "Captain, I'll Launch first, have the Verde buster and the Blu Duel ready on the Catapault just in case it is hostile" Stephen announced as he entered the Hangar and headed straight for the cockpit of the Saviour "she ready" announced the foreign mechanic. Stephen took his seat and started it up, he was toed to the Catapault and then smirked sadistically "Stephen Hownam, Saviour Gundam, LAUNCHING!" Stephen announced as the Saviour burst out of the catapault.

upon clearing the archangel the Saviour took it's fighter jet mode and headed to intercept the foe suit.
 
"Psi, are com channels operating properly?" I watch the ship launch mobile suits and have Psi tag them as yellow for now. Reopening the com channel, I announce again, "Mobile unit Psi gundam with mobile armor, trying to announce non-aggression towards the archangel and all allied mobile suits. Please do not attack me or my armor. We are simply offering escort out of respect." I allow for a physical gesture of surrender by throwing Psi's hands up in the air, but keeping my reflexes tight just in case I have no choice.
 
as Stephen noticed the Gundam on his radar, he heard a global channel come through with "Mobile unit Psi gundam with mobile armor, trying to announce non-aggression towards the archangel and all allied mobile suits. Please do not attack me or my armor. We are simply offering escort out of respect." Stephen smirked as he saw the suit, the Saviour flipped, reentering it's mobile suit mode and stopping just over arms length away from this 'Psi' Gundam.

the Saviour pulled out it's beam rifle and pointed it at the cockpit of the Psi Gundam "and why should we believe that your not working with Z.A.F.T?" Stephen announced through a global channel.
 
Opening my channel again, I smirk. Now I get to prove myself. "Because I already would have dealt mass damage to your ship with the heavy railgun assembly I used to take out the Nazca this was built from. If I was with Z.A.F.T., I would have already used my units massively superior reflexes and reaction time to have dealt with you. I only want to help end this war. Your crew is the best way I can see to do that. And if I was with Z.A.F.T., your SEED would be going crazy right now, if it works how I think it does."
I hope that is suficient.
 
Zeria reached after Stephen as he left, tears still streaming down her cheeks. She hated it. Hated watching him go out to fight while she was stuck behind, unable to be of use or help. She cursed, slamming her fist down on the bed she sat on.

"Why do I have to stay behind?!"

She considered for a moment taking a different suit...but she didn't want to. Not when the Blitz had been her only suit for as long as she'd been a pilot. She stood up from the bed, heading for the door, but the doctor moved in her way.

"I'm sorry, but he said that you're to stay here"
"I want to speak to the captain"
"But Tribal said-"
"I don't care! I need to speak with the captain...it's important..."
"I'm not allowed to let you leave"

Zeria growled, storming back to the bed and lying down.

"Then call the captain here!"
"Yes, ma'am!"

The captain was called, and once in the room, Zeria sat up again.

"What is it you need, Crimson?"
"I want......I want a chance to pilot a temporary suit. My head will be better before they repair the Blitz. I don't want to lose my skills as a pilot..."
 
Fabiola scurried and stumbled, but never stopped running. The ground here was hard, packed, wet snow, which made running rather difficult. Had it not been the big storm of snow whipping around right now, their enemies would have spotted the moment they reached the peak of the dune. Luckily that wasn't the case as Fabiola skidded around the outcrop with the Gunny dropping right behind her. Their hearts thumped loudly for a few seconds as they calmed down and register what has happened. Grabbing Gunny's binoculars, Fabiola peeked over the rocks steathily and glanced up at where Le Cygne was. Men were clambering all over the torso, strapping here and there. A giant portable crane had appeared from nowhere, but Fabiola could now guess who these guys were.

Damn. What luck, to meet scavangers out here. They seem to be taking Le Cygne and our Hornet, which is gonna be troublesome. What should we do?

Well, we could do a risky maneauver, but im not sure if you'd agree with me. What i think we could do is clamp on to the undercarriage of the crane, get them to sneak us into the base and we can recover the Hornet from there. Besides the fact that we need the Hornet, we cant have a group of outlaws near our base. If we can, we'll just blow them up as we leave. Risky, but thats all we can do. Radio's are out, so i cant get reinforcements.

Mary thought about what the gunney said said before saying herself, "Well then, I guess we have no choice, we let them get away and it'll be a long walk back to base, and I'm not going to explain about the missing VTOL."

Mary looked out at the targets with her sniper scope. While they are working, she couldn't tell what faction they are working for from her position.
 
Stephen smiled as the other mobile suit pilot bragged about how good he was, and also how powerful this gun was "well, my Seed ability only kicks in when im in the midst of battle, and as for that piece of crap hunk of junk you pieced together with a big gun on, it wouldn't stand a chance of hitting the Archangel from this distance, if it got even remotly close enough to skim the hull, i would blow it out of the sky" Stephen explained "and as for the you destroying my suit, it wont happen, im the best the hunters have, and also there are two suits Equivelant in power to my own, with pilots of a good calibre piloting them, if you were to attack me, the three of us would kill you within minutes, thats if i gave them chance to get here of course"

the Saviour lowered it's beam rifle as Stephen looked upon the Psi Gundam "but i guess you could help out, not like we need it though" Stephen Explained.
 
"Just let me know what you guys need. I am happy to help."
Well, the bluff sorta worked. They don't believe me, but they are at least not shooting at me. Let's hope I can help them.
Kira grins at his new allies assumption of his own skills, knowing it was possible that he would have to prove himself on this mission.
"I'll load up my armor and wait for instruction.
 
Stephen smiled "well, you wont be permitted to use the Hangar bays to store anything, but you can fly alongside the Archangel" Stephen explained as he flipped the Saviour back to it's Mobile armour form and burst off towards the Archangel "now come on, and don't try anything because i won't hesitate to kill you"
 
"Well then, I guess we have no choice, we let them get away and it'll be a long walk back to base, and I'm not going to explain about the missing VTOL."

Right. Thats good then. Leta do that.

Ahem. Excuse me.

The sharp cough drew the other two's attention. Fabiola's eyes were not impressed with what the Gunny had said. They were flat and staring.

Firstly, they have superior numbers. Secondly, how the heck do you think we can get towards the crane and hide? Thirdly, if we do manage to get in, we have to wait for night to start any action.

The last few lines were shot out like a machine gun. A huge gulp of air reinflated Fabiola's lungs before she began another volley of words. Thankfully, she was cut short.

Lastly, do remember that I am not a combat personne.....

Aright! Shut up! My Turn!

Almost instantly, Riina seemed to exude an entirely different air. This one was dangerous and tough, like a knife's edge. Her facial expression has seemingly changed, as if it had gotten sharper and tougher.

Right. Ignore that. I say we best go by this stealthly. From what i've seen. they don't seem to be from any faction, but are just money grubbing savangers. Hence the poor aim. Therefore, they will try to salvage Le Cygne and the Hornet.

Inglesia poked her finger into the snow and drew a rough map of the area.

It seems like most of their force is looking for us near the VTOL. That means the crane would be lightly defended. While they circle around anti-clockwise towards this rock, we follow suit and circle anti-clockwise, around the dune and sneak on. We can take down one or two, but avoid contact. Once on, we just sit tight until we get back to base. Any further suggestions?

Mou.....i thought you were asleep?!

I don't want you driving if we're heading into a firefight!
 
OOC: Short post to get things moving.

After hearing Inglesia's plan, Mary said, "A sound plan, though it's best we avoid taking on anyone, we don't have suppressors to really take them out without them noticing." She paused, putting her sniper away, then drawing her pistol, "But, if that's the plan, fine, I'll watch your back. Gunney..."

"I know, I know, I'll take the rear, Ma'am."
 
Hmph. Do not worry.

Faster than the eye could trace, Inglesia whippd out a rather big combat knife from its sheathe and performed a nice little combo of twirls before grapping it in a reverse grip.

We are well trained for infiltration missions. I doubt we even need to use this.

Hey, missy! They're beginning to fan outwards towards our direction. Do we move?

Wordlessly, the pilot snatched the binoculars from the Gunny's hand, jerking it down to her level and peered through the lens.

Heh. Very nice. Very predictable. Let's go.

Keeping a low, crouch run, Inglesia darted off, under the cover of the heavy snow and began her trek counter clockwise towards the crane.
 
OOC: I realize Stephen is not around.....where is he....*shrugs and moves on*

IC: Following Inglesia into the heavy snowfall, she kept low and headed towards the crane. While it was difficult for most people to see, this gives the 3-person team a good cover. The gunney was trailing from behind as well with his Assault Rifle. Mary and the Gunney kept quiet to avoid detection.

In addition to the troopers, they also sent in dogs. Luckily, they weren't proberly trained to hunt and track, but to kill, still the Gunney was weary and Mary did not want to find herself against the rabid wolves. Knowing Inglesia, the crane is not far from the target area.
 
OOC: Okay, G-mod a bit so we can get to the enemy base sooner. Slip into the undercarriage and we will be off, Billy.

Like a ghost, Inglesia snuck right by the smoking guard. He was an idiot, standing 4 meters from the van and staring deadset in one direction. Any competent soldier would patrol with another soldier to ensure no one sneaks on. She counted her blessings however. Tempted to slide the knife across his throat, Inglesia stepped by slowly and she spotted the space she wanted. Under the flat bed of the truck, where the crane sat, was a low storage rack. It was perfect. From what she saw, it was not in use and there was plenty of space for them to slip in and hide comfortably without the fear that a sideway glance from a soldier would spot them. Inglesia held out her hand and squeezed it into a ball three times, the signal for the okay.
 
As soon as Mary and the Gunney saw the signal, she knew that it was time. Mary slipped in first, crawling under the flat bed and getting into what she thinks as a storage chamber, the Gunney followed soon after and got in.

"So now we can get to their base and blow them sky high, right ma'am?"
The Gunney whispered.

"Shut up and stay hidden." Mary whispered in a stern voice.
 
Captain in the archangel Sickbay

"well then miss Iiyasei, you shouldn't go doing stupid things like going out in a busted ass suit" The captain explained, "But Seems as you are the only person who Stephen Listens to, i suppose i should give you a suit, as long as you promise not to break this one" he informed her, "well as a matter of fact my new suit arrived today, it took it's time to arrive after Stephen broke the Sword Calamity" the captain rambled on.

he turned around and smiled "when the doctor says your allowed to Stand up, report to the captain's hangar bay, to receive your new suit"
 
Zeria's eyes lit up and she leapt forward, hugging the captain tightly.

"Thank you, sir! You won't regret this!"

She let go of him and turned to the doctor.

"You better tell me the very SECOND I'm good enough to pilot again!"
"Y-yes ma'am!"

She smiled and flopped down onto the bed again, sighing with contentment. She'd still get to pilot. She could keep fighting beside Stephen. She couldn't wait to tell him the news...
