Roleplay Super Robot Wars Paradox Cascade: ReTrOgression IC

William Liam Tinmall


<<<Ø>>>


Hidden in a cavern from the hordes of Eldars, the remnants of the Izumo's crew worked to salvage what they could.


Orders were shouted, hands moved, machines found new life in the expert care of the Techpriests.




However, even the sound of work couldn't drown the desperate cries of the thousands of souls tortured by the Eldar.


Liam was a meek man, a subdued individual that found little reason to get angry.




This was making his blood boil...




"What's the status here? What did we manage to save?" he asked the people around, his companions in this long war that was just getting longer and more tiring, "Are the Gundams operational? Or are we defenseless?"

"We have recovered what we could adept, somehow our benefactor has access to his own military supplies native to this world. But it's quite fragile due to its state of disrepair. Perhaps you can help us find what is needed. I do not know what defenses these strange Astates have but they seem to be immune to the Xeno’s means of detection.”

Identity: C1/Cameron Hich

Status: Tenjin Fully Operational, No Known Intel on Current Location and Surrounding Sectors




-------------------------------------------------




C1... No, Cameron Hich was lost on a world that he did not recognise.




There was no better way to explain his situation right now, considering that he was cut off from the Prototype Collective. He couldn't hear a single voice that he would know. Not even Alpha herself.




If it wasn't for the fact that he was so used to independence from his true role, he would have suffered a panic attack. Fortunately, the bonus of having a life where you spent your life up to military service as normal as it could be in the galaxy, means that you can handle some situations fairly well with a calm head.




No, what concerned him was the fact that he noticed that there were beings across deep space that were hunting for him... He didn't know if he was a part of a large umbrella category that involves foreigners from other galaxies, or Alpha forbid, other dimensions entirely, or he was hunted specifically for something else entirely.




But there was one thing he was sure of. Whoever was hunting him... They are maliciously sentient machinery, and that unsettled him. The closest to such beings were the Prototypes themselves, born to be superior to humanity in many ways, with the intention to usurp their creators as the dominant race of the galaxy, engineered to follow a pseudo hive-mind which dictate most of their actions and goals. Cameron himself, was considered to be a rare exception, in that he was a infiltrator, meant to bear a human facade to slip into the key positions of armies, so that the betrayal would be effective and swift at a single signal from Alpha herself.




When it comes to the malicious metal beings... With what psychic powers he had, all he could feel from them was pure malice towards all beings of flesh and blood, as well as a toxic mix of hate, disgust, arrogance, and many different sinful emotions. At least it gave him the virtue of a definite enemy, something that would make things easier back where he was.




If only he could find allies... There has to be people that share the same situation as him. With the charisma that Cameron Hich's idealism and kindness gives, it should help people in trusting him, as he is in genuine need for allies, despite his directive to not get attached. to humans and other beings at all. Without Alpha here, his only choice is to trust himself until he can reconnect with the hive-mind to clarify the situation.




For now, his only move was to keep evading the detection of those metal beings, and continue to the nearest planet. Thankfully, when he was dragged from his reality by some sort of warp phenomenon, his Tenjin was supplied to full power, which means that he can handle fighting for a while, until he can find friendly aid to help supply him.




Wait... There was a colony ahead... and although it was in ruins... The sensors picked up faint signals from it, and none of them match the previously designated hostiles that he observed. Perhaps... just perhaps, his aid might come sooner than expected.




Now all he had to do... while he set his course towards the colony... is to rehearse his own 'mask', so that he doesn't instigate distrust among the possibly cordial people that might be sheltering in those ruins...

“Someone approaches...it looks like another otherworldly Knight Lord Custodes.”

The Ravaged Commissar said

“Another castaway, be cautious we do not know the intentions of these newcomers, any new arrival could pose a threat.” Hazantcore was aware of the random nature of the abductees at this point they were cooperative but it had no uniform selection knowing the nature of the warp alone but even this storm was strange…



One of Cyclonus’s drones detected an energy signature in the tattered cities amongst the rubble, his quarry had shown itself.

“Drone, deploy your counterparts to do a sweep. I’ll watch from the skies” he was of course addressing Ouroboros, he did not hold something without a spark as an equal. The same applied with that mad artificial intellect based off a pathetic Human mind.



“Drone? I am no drone!” Ouroboros scoffs, “But very well, I’ll send my drones to scout for our targets.”

The SF ringleader put heavy emphasis on the word drones as she turns to go send out her troops; finding offense in the very idea that SHE was a drone when she was in fact one of the smartest people in this group. A few minutes later, the scout swarms were released, splitting into dozens of patrols that glided down towards the colony in which she had been tasked with searching.


“Drone… Bah, how dare they. My army makes me a cornerstone of this entire operation. Calling me a mere drone, ridiculous…” Ouroboros mutters to herself as she walks, giving scouts their orders to sweep the area.

"Mill, could we find another way? Playing cat and mouse with small ships is not elegant at all."




Dessler was impatient. Following two small rats with the speed of a snail was not his style. As much as he rejoiced in watching a certain ship overcome the odds, those two were not on the same level as that legendary foe, the Yamato. So, he ordered the green-skinned Gatlantean to find another way.




"Of course. I am the eyes and ears of Emperor Zworder, such a task is trivial."

Spoiler: Intermission

"We found a place where our wave engine can be used. It's on the edges of this small planet, Sedna."




"Did you also find what is blocking our way?"




"I did. It's a series of devices that blocks certain warp frequencies. As long as these devices are active, we will be unable to fly to Earth. Also, it looks like one of the devices is located on this space colony."




"Neither Gamillas nor Iskandar has wave motion jamming technology yet. Iskandar can amplify wave motion energy with the Cosmo Reverse, but to stop it is another story..."




"Iskandar, a race that has studied wave motion since its antiquity, has been unable to develop a means to jam it."




"Besides, a colony shaped like an hourglass? Only humans have the audacity to revive relics of the past. It means another advanced species, one that found a way to disrupt warp technology, is using that as their base of operations."




"By relics of the past, you refer to the Yamato?"




"Mill, relics are like that, relics. Anyway, did you find how these things work? And how to stop them from working?"




"Yes. They use some sort of graviton engine to disrupt space and stop it from bending. I do believe that if we destroy one of them, it will disrupt the others, creating an opening of only two seconds for this ship to warp towards Earth."




"What is the distance between this hourglass and Sedna?"




"100 skandis."




"And from Proxima Centauri to Sedna?"




"120,000 skandis."




"I also suggest you target this colony. There is a weird energy coming from this other one."




"Alright, let us do as you say. We will warp to Sedna, and lay low until the Dessler Cannon's charge is complete. After that, shoot it down in one swift move and warp using the recoil energy."




"You want the ship to explode?!"




"If the Yamato did it, so can we."

The preparations were over. Neue Desura has arrived at a certain area near Mars, where its Wave Motion Engine could work. Dessler slowly took off from his golden throne, and walked towards a golden standard, which transformed itself into a cannon-like apparatus. Leaning over it, and holding over the trigger as he gazed upon the iron sight, he gloats to the Gatlantean of the true power of such a weapon.




"It is time, Mill... let me show you the power of a Wave Motion Gun."




He adjusted the small lever at the other side, calibrating the aim, as well as the energy levels.




"Hourglass, twelve o' clock. Energy level... 70%... 80%... 90%..."




At the engine, wave motion was being produced, as it glows yellow. Many rods were being connected to the cannon's barrel, minus the golden central one. Afterwards, the yellow became a purple glow.




"Coordinating aim... pressurizing the beam width..."




All windows of the ship, including those of the bridge, were covered by an iron curtain, and the barrel started to collect a purple energy around itself. A hologram gleamed on the middle of the bridge, right in front of Dessler, with a three-dimensional image of the target; an hourglass-shaped space colony.




"Safety shutters online."




Then, on the iron sight, a crystal emerges, showing the energy levels.




"100%..."




"110%..."




Mill, the green-skinned Gatlantean, smiles. So does Zworder, who from afar, was watching the whole spectacle with certain anticipation. He, who threw emotion away, wanted to see for himself.




To see what Teresa sees on the Yamato.




"120%..."




Dessler knew of what Iskandar did in the past.




"130%..."




If he loved Starsha, why did he develop a weapon she abhorred more than anything else?




"140% Full Charge."




That colony had people living on it. But if they were victims of alien colonizers... maybe death was their best option. Dessler, knowing fully well his decisions destroyed any and all relations he had with Iskandar... simply pushed the trigger, without hesitation.




"Dessler Cannon... fire!"




A purple wave propagated from the barrel, and fired itself at enormous speed. Space, where nothing could be heard, has made a sound. This wave of destructive energy bent it to the point it made noise.




Wave Motion Gun. It was the equivalent of shooting millions of black holes as a coherent wave.




And it showed, as in less than one second, the colony was blasted to oblivion. At the same time, the ship surrounded itself with spinning triangular rings, the recoil of the Dessler Cannon pushing it through subspace with its massive force. If he was one second late, it would be his end. If he didn't rush, the ship would crash against space itself, causing a huge explosion.




Thankfully, it wasn't the case. The warp was a success.

The eternal detected a massive energy spike and its primitive alarm klaxons went off at Obsidian's receptors. He noticed one of the space colonies was missing...a physical impossibility of something with such mass unless it was...suddenly evaporated. Whoever blasted that pitiful excuse of a space colony they had firepower on par with his own people.

Obsidian was not having a good day more than that the sadistic fools that rule these colonies would find the nerve to blame him for their loss of their comrades and slaves. Not that the mewlings of organics bothered him but he wasn’t one to toss waste next to where he recharged. He had to obtain this ship and bring its crew to a heel then he would be mobile and even more fearsome…he prepared to open the comms.


“Unidentified vessel you are intruding upon the territory of the one true ruler of Cybertron, you WILL power down your vessel and surrender or perish.”

The Eternal’s armament was pitiful by comparison to the enemy ship, even with the Eldar and Cybertronian modifications by its crew they lacked firepower but that wasn’t his sole tools at hand

The Dark Eldar ships and fighters surrounded the Neue Desura with lances ready, every single crewmember had their own agendas. Some craved revenge for their loss of valuables and slaves, others sought to use the ship as a weapon to turn on each other and then this ripe new universe.

-------------------------------------------------

Cameron could only curse under his breath, when he noticed that as soon as he was making way towards the ruined colony, there were multiple unidentified signatures heading his way. With what limited radar he had around the area... he could tell that there were many groups of said unknowns... and they were splitting off in formations, as if combing the area like a proper search party... or a hunting unit, with the main purpose of search and destroy in regards to him and his Tenjin.

...This was not good. If they are left unchecked, in this barren land... he will be most certainly spotted by the enemy, and he'll end up drawing them to his potential allies, which will make gaining goodwill and trust very difficult in the near future.

But on the same coin... if he stood and fought against whatever was searching for him, it would be likely that it'll alarm whatever force sent those patrols out. And as a Prototype, he knew better to pick fights with enemies of unknown competence. Alpha reinforced to all of the Prototypes... that a unknown enemy is most likely a lethal one to have.

What to do though... fight or run... or even hide... But how can he hide...? It's not like there is anything large and covered enough that he could use to evade detection.

Perhaps... Just perhaps, the Power Bombs stored within the Tenjin might work. They are capable of electromagnetic interference even just outside the blast radius. If he can use it to create a electromagnetic anomaly... the drones might possibly investigate it, and end up passing over him. The Tenjin's joints were strong enough to give one a toss far enough from his throwing position.

So he decided to look for a nearby structure to hide within... and prepare to use a Power Bomb to commit to a risk manuever that could potentially save him from a early demise....

Several Mechasaur units came ablaze and detonated, leaving the surviving machines scattered on the viewscreen. Dinosaur units and Earthling units alike were in mass disarray and chaos. Above the disarray in earth's orbit, were 4 Starcraft joining together.

“HAHAHA wonderful.” A massive Humanoid in brown said triumphantly.

“These Dinosaurs are formidable foes, unlike the Humans they have technological superiority.” A second humanoid more slim and in blue armor said

“Don’t tell me you want to negotiate with those throwbacks?” His brown counterpart asked.

“The only thing they are better at than earthlings is resisting the inevitable, the Humans may have defeated the Saurians more powerful weapons at a cost; A massive battle, whose scope was going off of all the viable energy signatures.” A third Giant said, this one donning an insectoid battle helmet.

“There's been a massive energy charge detected, someone amongst the earthlings has something on par with even our weapons!” A final giant in purple said after observing the battle.

“I thought those useless Avian's already captured one of the more powerful units the humans had, undamaged. No matter... we shall deploy a Black Monster to destroy or capture it.”

“It could be formidable, deploy the Demon of the desert, it's the perfect chance to herald our conquest of earth with it and Sasoringer!” The bug eyed general suggested.

“The Dinosaurs are no pushovers, Asimov, the weapon they have to counter the Human Machines and terraform the world is being mass produced. The Humans themselves have their own more unstable imitations of the Death Cross formation dubbed “G-Bombs”.”

“Heh,let them have their toys, the Black Army mastered gravity long before both of these races could even pierce the stars. These imitations can’t compare to a race that has harnessed gravitonic death staring them in the eye.”



In the hanger, Zane passed by Alistair, yearning for some kind of chance of salvation. The Dinosaur spy was nowhere to be seen, but he couldn't tell if the strange swordsman could detect him or not. It had to be afraid of being seen by Xavier if only he was present now…



Rob was in no better shape it seemed, the avian Humanoids took him to see the Command ship in the distance.

“Get ready for a demonstration Human. A parting gift to see before your demise.” one of the Zelan soldiers mocked.

Before he knew it, a massive earthquake shook the entire region and two giant robotic hands grasped the Mississippi and lifted it into the air.

“Behold the reborn, Demon of the Desert!.”

Kane could feel the ship start shaking, as if a giant beast got a grasp on it, he couldn’t let it destroy them that easily.

He would quickly grab his partner and rush to the condor, setting her on the back while he started up the jet, the controls coming alive.

“Wait for me Great, I’m coming” he said, as the Condor started hovering, and turn to the open hangar, and blasted off.

Flying out, he could see the giant beast shaking the Mississippi, he would then pull a 180 and flew underneath the giant machine, locating the hangar Great was in, as he shouted.

“MAZIN! GO!”

Upon command, Great would Awaken, roaring like a lion as it AI took control of it, moving both it legs out of the station it was in, before existing out of the hangar.

Not far, Kane would witness Great Mazinger existing the hangar as he then flew into the crown of his mecha head, “FIRE ON!”

As the condor made contact with the mecha, turning the machine on, both it vibrant yellow eyes symbolize that the mecha came alive, before striking a dynamic pose!

“Now I’ll be taking this from you! GREAT TYPHOON!”

He said, as the Great mouth would start breathing intense winds, to push the Giant purple machine away, hoping he could get it to drop the Mississippi so Great Mazinger could catch it and set it on the ground.

ADA's sensors started to pick up on some anomalous activity occurring on the Mississippi's position. "Irregularities have been detected. There is a 99.9% chance that your target is under attack."

"Let's speed this up, then." Melissa said as she pushed the Jehuty forward with the afterburner controls at maximum. The comet trail it left behind growing bigger, longer and brighter. As the unit unraveled the horizon, they could see it quite clearly: A huge, fancy robot holding up the ship with both hands, and what looked like yet another fancier robot about to fire a tornado attack at it.

"Well crap... The ship must be full of people. What do we do? Any suggestions?" Melissa asked to her A.I. companion.

"I recommend the sub-weapon Geyser. It's deployance should allow us to immobilize the enemy long enough for the Mississippi to be retrieved into safety. The extermination or the capture of the opposing unit can be decided later."

"Worth a shot."

Melissa's eyes scouted the scenery up ahead. She called upon what knowledge she managed to absorb from her conscription training to find a way around the tornado and work out a route to give herself a clear shot. On the following moment, Jehuty took an arching approach through the left, maneuvering around the Mazinger's tornado and zero-ing in to the massive beast. Several drone-like devices were summoned and deployed, surrounding the enemy's position all over by lingering in the air. Their firing surface lined up and aimed proper.

At the press of a button, Melissa prompted the Geyser bits to fire a network of bright neon green lasers at the ship's holder, conducting a massive paralytic electro-wave into its inner workings upon contact.

For all that had happened in the span of only a month or so, Namie didn’t expect a lot of things to happen. From being transported to a world that’s going to hell, to a hellish world. The need to survive is only perpetuated by the crazy Leopard goddamn cultist they needed to fight! To be fair everything happened in a blur to her, due to the appearance of one crazier than the others that managed to get the screams of the damned stuck in her head. There was no time to question anything as the death of the crazy one managed to put on a spectacle that alleviated her soul. The souls of the damned quite literally freed from her mind and from the hell they’ve been stuck in..

That was before shit hit the fan again and caused everyone else on her “team” to separate and scatter like the wind. Honestly, nothing new to her, but from what she gathered from the limited time she’s been with the “team” they could hold fine on their own.

Anyhow, she managed to end up with the company of Gabe and Sanger- Wodan Ymir. They managed to find each other and stick together. She hadn’t found any conversation topics to talk about as she wasn’t sure how to initiate anything with these guys.

They were wandering in the heat just before Wodan abruptly stopped and his Mecha looked towards a group of stragglers.

"Hey big guys, who's your boss?"

The Thrudgelmir kept it’s gaze towards the stragglers with an intense silence. Wodan didn’t bother to speak up. Perhaps to simply intimidate the trio? Meanwhile Namie’s words were simply caught up in her throat. She had an unusual case of nerves from the silence and she wasn’t sure how to break it.

"Well? Are you just gonna stand there like an even bigger moron then my burden carrying the female or what? I get why a talking crow might intimidate most Humans...if you are one or if you just have a stupendous awe of my superior avian characteristics paired with this robotic armor but be warned I'm not susceptible to flattery!" The ascended avian before him attempted to bait him on to end this odd standoff


His hulking confidant carried the woman, still unconscious in one arm. He began to point at Sanger with his free hand

"Yeah what? Its a robot its no different then the ones they made you for sure its a little extravagant, you ask me the blade is obviously a human overcompensating for something."

Sapphire was roused from unconsciousness and began to scream

"Aw fuck, I told you not to bring this bimbo with us it would look bad! But no you humans whenever you see a female sow you drool!"

"Gah!" The giant snapped back at the Crow in armor.

"PLEASE SOMBODY HELP ME!"

Troy scrambled to regain his composure as Sapphire continued to scream.

"Well you see I told my ASSOCIATE here to drop this slut off where he found her being accosted by these guys in leopard rags but he is very UNINTELLIGENT to understate the obvious."

 

[Guy of Z]

There didn't seem to be any enemies yet, and the bomb disposal went on without issue, at least for the moment. Then a young man passed by him, who had a look of what appeared to be desperation on his face. Someone who wanted help but couldn't quite say it. Alistair followed him while carefully observing his surroundings, making sure the bomb specialist wasn't in any immediate danger.

"Hey, anything wrong here that I don't know about?" he said. Before Alistair could get an answer, the ship violently shook again, and he nearly fell on his ass. Then it felt like the entire Mississippi just rose up into the air, disorienting him but only for a moment, and the swordsman quickly regained his bearings. Alistair readied himself, armed with both his sword and ADVENT shock lance acquired from the ship's armory. If anything was out there that required a mech to take down, Alistair could do nothing about it since the Epyon still required repairs. He'd have to trust the others to handle it.

It was almost like an invisible force was pushing the boy forward and he began to gibber something.

“Please don’t make me do this!” The boy was pushed forward.

Suddenly the ship was once again shaken drastically

"Is everyone alright?" M4 asks as she looks to the rest of AR team, pressing the last of the small attack squad that had been tying her team up for the past several minutes against the floor with her foot and ending the fight with one last barking report from her namesake rifle.

"I think we're all good?" STAR says, looking around as she reloaded her rifles, met with a nod from M16 who was doing the same and....

Well, sopmod was currently pulling eyeballs and teeth from corpses with a giggle. "Ahh these guys aren't so tough~ Can't wait to make some new collections~!"

"You do realize that biological eyes will decompose, right?" M16 asks with a chuckle, clearly seeing more humour in it than the sighing AR-15.

"....Oh, okay! Well luckily I have plenty of preservation fluids back home so it's all good~!" The blonde psychopath says cheerfully as she pulls a jar out from... somewhere in her outfit, and stuffs the dino bits into it.

"Well, at least we can maybe use these corpses as a fear tactic; show the dinos what will happen to them?" M4 suggests with a shrug before everything suddenly began to shake

"Whoa whoa!" M16 stumbles, grabbing onto a doorframe to steady herself, "The hell's going on?!"

M4, similarly steadying herself on a doorframe, quickly pulls out her radio. "Mississippi command this is Anti-rain, we were held up dealing with a squad of Dino soldiers in the barrack quarters. Requesting sitrep, how copy?"

Meanwhile, on a completely different part of the planet. Or even not actually on the planet yet...

The two heavy ASFs had by now made it close to Earth, close enough at the very least that they'd be able to send and recieve communications. Meagan's jet was ahead of the two, being the slightly faster of the ASFs. "Alright Heart, start searchin for any official comms we can use."

"Uh, right away miss Meagan!" The voice system responds, beginning to scan through frequencies.

"Here's hoping this planet isn't some Capellan backwater outpost" Ruby chuckles

"Nah, it cannae be. Look at the development, like. Would be big and proper enough to be a planet on tha maps, that's fer sure." Meagan replies.

Ruby couldn't help but wonder... "Then... Why isn't it?"

“We’re under attack by an unknown third party, hang onto your metal butts if you don’t want to be sent to a repair shop!” Jackson responded.

“Ah dammit the bastard is dropping us!”


Suddenly more shaking commenced and the entire team was knocked around like loose groceries in an out of control car.

In the shores of Italy, the sight of a little submarine was seen from a distance. As for some reason, the little vessel that can be considered as a midget submarine approached the shore with considerable speed, as if not caring that it would hit the rocks and get stuck. But all of a sudden, the submarine transforms into a rather sizable mech.

"Been a while since I was on land..." The little girl between the mech named Litia, exclaims as she looks at the surroundings in curiosity. There was nothing on the map, no clear signals. She was confused. But no matter, she might as well keep moving to find any clues of what's going on.

Taking a long step, Alicorn's mecha form stomped through the shore and into land with audible clanks from the machine's heavy weight. It was going to take a while for the submersible mech to get anywhere due to its slow speed on ground.

"This is boring..." But with the pilot being young and generally childish, she decides to kick trees and boulders at random to see how far it can fly as she strides through the mainland. Though, minutes as passed by as she moved through the empty yet green land's, she noticed something from the distance.

"What is...?" She looked at the moving objects from the distance before activating her radar to scan. The results surprised her. "That's huge... impossibly huge. Unbelievable..."

Wanting to get a closer look she tries to walk close, but took noticed of the trashed and somewhat burned battlefield around her. Litia took precautions and stopped to prepare all her weapon systems along with her scanners.

"Hm... why get a closer look if I can just use my drones!" Not long after, she launches a pair of MQ-101 drones with the orders of taking a closer look at the little... big situation on the distance, maybe even attack if she can. Litia is rather curious of she can bring something so big down to the ground.

As she surveyed the area one of the drones was detected by a companion of the Demon. A large metallic object resembling a Scorpion's tail shot out from underground and vaporized the interloping probe.

After taking a few minutes to get a feel for this new atmosphere, David quickly looked over the longest-distance radar he could. He was near a shoreline, fortunately. Unfortunately, the limited maps of a Mobile Suit couldn't tell him where he was on the map of the world.

However...From the Freedom Gundam's camera, David could spy trails of smoke pouring into the sky.

"Something's wrong...I should check things out, and hope nobody's killing each other..."

David punched the controls, transforming the Freedom to its Mobile Armor Mode. The Freedom was now like a strange fighter craft. The masked Gundam pilot floored the pedals, and rocketed towards the trails of smoke, his radar beeping with strange signatures as he got close enough to detect them.

Kane could feel the ship start shaking, as if a giant beast got a grasp on it, he couldn’t let it destroy them that easily.

He would quickly grab his partner and rush to the condor, setting her on the back while he started up the jet, the controls coming alive.

“Wait for me Great, I’m coming” he said, as the Condor started hovering, and turn to the open hangar, and blasted off.

Not far, Kane would witness Great Mazinger existing the hangar as he then flew into the crown of his mecha head, “FIRE ON!”

As the condor made contact with the mecha, turning the machine on, both it vibrant yellow eyes symbolize that the mecha came alive, before striking a dynamic pose!

“Now I’ll be taking this from you! GREAT TYPHOON!”

He said, as the Great mouth would start breathing intense winds, to push the Giant purple machine away, hoping he could get it to drop the Mississippi so Great Mazinger could catch it and set it on the ground.

The Dark Monster merely ignored the attack as if the Great Typhoon was nothing more then a stiff breeze but its attentions was divided on the Greats counterpart which could be noticed with its attack.

ADA's sensors started to pick up on some anomalous activity occurring on the Mississippi's position. "Irregularities have been detected. There is a 99.9% chance that your target is under attack."

"Let's speed this up, then." Melissa said as she pushed the Jehuty forward with the afterburner controls at maximum. The comet trail it left behind growing bigger, longer and brighter. As the unit unraveled the horizon, they could see it quite clearly: A huge, fancy robot holding up the ship with both hands, and what looked like yet another fancier robot about to fire a tornado attack at it.

"I recommend the sub-weapon Geyser. It's deployance should allow us to immobilize the enemy long enough for the Mississippi to be retrieved into safety. The extermination or the capture of the opposing unit can be decided later."

"Worth a shot."

Melissa's eyes scouted the scenery up ahead. She called upon what knowledge she managed to absorb from her conscription training to find a way around the tornado and work out a route to give herself a clear shot. On the following moment, Jehuty took an arching approach through the left, maneuvering around the Mazinger's tornado and zero-ing in to the massive beast. Several drone-like devices were summoned and deployed, surrounding the enemy's position all over by lingering in the air. Their firing surface lined up and aimed proper.

At the press of a button, Melissa prompted the Geyser bits to fire a network of bright neon green lasers at the ship's holder, conducting a massive paralytic electro-wave into its inner workings upon contact.

The lasers did little to stun the Dark Monster but it did get its attention and it seemed enraged. The Demon of the Desert dropped the Mississippi on a Massive Forest Canopy dominating the Dinoformed region and turned to face its attacker.

“So you must be the energy signature we detected. Surrender your machine now Terrain and your death will come quickly. Even Gaiking will bow before my enhanced weapon.” A loud voice came from the Monster Machine as if someone was speaking through it.

“I will rend both of your pathetic fighting forces asunder today and show this planet true Zelan might!”


The Demon of the Desert took flight and aimed its massive hand at Jehunty as its controller made its bold declaration. Time seemed of the essence as the Massive prehistoric trees could not hold the great Vehicle forever...

It was almost like an invisible force was pushing the boy forward and he began to gibber something.

“Please don’t make me do this!” The boy was pushed forward.

Suddenly the ship was once again shaken drastically

As Alistair focused, he could see a slight distortion with a vague humanoid shape. It seemed to be a more refined version of those other assassins' technology, making it even less noticeable. Another quake, and Alistair struggled to keep his balance. When everything was steady again, he bolted towards the one pushing the boy and swung the crackling ADVENT shock lance down on it.

David quickly got visuals of the ongoing firefight as soon as he got in range...Whatever he was watching, it defied comprehension...But David quickly shook off the shock of this new sight, whatever these things were, it was for sure he had to wait just a little longer to get some more context. However, he already had the Freedom's guns at the ready just in case.

 

[Strelok21]

Litia took note of her shot down probe and check the records of her downed drone... Scorpion tail...

Being a little child that she is, her eyes widen and squeals in fear. "Monster... Aaah!"

Litia immediately orders her available drones to drop ordnance on the tail. Her remaining drones in the air immediately fired off some missiles towards the scorpion tail, and dropped some explosives.

Litia might've fought a war that ended her life, but she is not letting some creepy creature get close. Nope.

At this point, all her guns from her CIWS, to her 90mm railguns were ready to fire. Even heavily considering to load a nuclear round on her 152mm railgun.

 

[Meanjojo]

"Well? Are you just gonna stand there like an even bigger moron then my burden carrying the female or what? I get why a talking crow might intimidate most Humans...if you are one or if you just have a stupendous awe of my superior avian characteristics paired with this robotic armor but be warned I'm not susceptible to flattery!" The ascended avian before him attempted to bait him on to end this odd standoff


His hulking confidant carried the woman, still unconscious in one arm. He began to point at Sanger with his free hand

"Yeah what? Its a robot its no different then the ones they made you for sure its a little extravagant, you ask me the blade is obviously a human overcompensating for something."

Sapphire was roused from unconsciousness and began to scream

"Aw fuck, I told you not to bring this bimbo with us it would look bad! But no you humans whenever you see a female sow you drool!"

"Gah!" The giant snapped back at the Crow in armor.

"PLEASE SOMBODY HELP ME!"

Troy scrambled to regain his composure as Sapphire continued to scream.

"Well you see I told my ASSOCIATE here to drop this slut off where he found her being accosted by these guys in leopard rags but he is very UNINTELLIGENT to understate the obvious."

The mention of Leopards had peaked Wodan's interest as well as Namie's. Wodan was more vocal about this fact.

"I see you've encountered those detestable animals." He assumed they must be in a vague direction from where they were walking, "Come. Gabriel, Namie, we must exterminate the pests that still dare to walk this earth." Wodan decided to simply walk in a vague direction.

Namie simply muttered a "Yes sir." Over the comms. She placed her fingers on her forhead and began to massage her headache that was starting to form from the woman screaming bloody murder....no the headaches were forming even before she screamed, the sounds just made it worse. She just wanted to shout back, but that wouldn't do anything. Without too much thought into it, she made the Gespenst pull out a revolver and shoot into the air. After that she would follow after Wodan.

William Liam Tinmall
<<<Ø>>>
Hidden in a cavern from the hordes of Eldars, the remnants of the Izumo's crew worked to salvage what they could.
Orders were shouted, hands moved, machines found new life in the expert care of the Techpriests.

However, even the sound of work couldn't drown the desperate cries of the thousands of souls tortured by the Eldar.
Liam was a meek man, a subdued individual that found little reason to get angry.

This was making his blood boil...

"What's the status here? What did we manage to save?" he asked the people around, his companions in this long war that was just getting longer and more tiring, "Are the Gundams operational? Or are we defenseless?"

"Are you sure you wish to continue with the experiment? This is your last opportunity to stop." The doctor asked over the comms. "Doctor, if this means finally having the ability to reclaim mars by sending troops anywhere I'm as ready as I'll ever be!" Ren said with ferocity and vigor.

"Alright commence operation flash." The doctor said as the other scientists worked at their stations. The facility was at full concentration for this to work, after a few minutes of preparation it was time.
"We are ready to test the teleportation device, godspeed. In ten… nine…"

Ren concentrated his breathing and focused as the doctor continued his countdown.

"Three… two… one… Now!" The doctor said as the device activated. The last thing anyone saw in the room was a flash.

A spark appeared in the air, a flash of light and a ball of energy formed. It grew considerably until a loud BANG as it exploded sending a wave of energy across the area. At the epicenter of the explosion was the mech suit, charred, burned, and still smoking from the extreme heat. Inside the mech suit sat Ren somehow alive.

"Holy hell! We're alive!" Ren said with a smile." ZOE interjected "yes, barely, but alive. Wait… we're not at the right coordinates… were not even in the right solar system where are we?" The AI ran diagnostics over and over trying to get an idea of their current location. ELE added "well wherever we are, were not alone. Look!" ELE zoomed the optics in on some humanoids in the distance as they ran away from the area. "Can I engage? I bet I could get both of them with one." Ren cut off ELE, "No, we don't even know what's going on. Let's just make sure the suits are alright." Ren said as he tried to start up the mech. It was slow, the machine did not like the teleportation but it came through, just slower than usual as it stood up. "Alright I've regained control, let's try and get a signal out to see if there's anyone from ZIO." Ren said as he sent out a ZIO distress signal.

It was almost like an invisible force was pushing the boy forward and he began to gibber something.

“Please don’t make me do this!” The boy was pushed forward.

Suddenly the ship was once again shaken drastically


“We’re under attack by an unknown third party, hang onto your metal butts if you don’t want to be sent to a repair shop!” Jackson responded.

“Ah dammit the bastard is dropping us!”


Suddenly more shaking commenced and the entire team was knocked around like loose groceries in an out of control car.


As she surveyed the area one of the drones was detected by a companion of the Demon. A large metallic object resembling a Scorpion's tail shot out from underground and vaporized the interloping probe.




The Dark Monster merely ignored the attack as if the Great Typhoon was nothing more then a stiff breeze but its attentions was divided on the Greats counterpart which could be noticed with its attack.



The lasers did little to stun the Dark Monster but it did get its attention and it seemed enraged. The Demon of the Desert dropped the Mississippi on a Massive Forest Canopy dominating the Dinoformed region and turned to face its attacker.

Ada's sensors closely followed the demon's ascent into the skies. Melissa's adrenaline levels spiked up as she prepared for a fight. So far, the Geysers proved to be useless. But the scanners drew her attention towards the hand that was being aimed at her. Her eyes diverted down into the controllers.

"Ada, reroute more energy into Jehuty's wings! We need to be ready to take evasive action!"

"Understood."

The energy systems started to direct more energy into Jehuty's wings mounted in the back of the torso, causing them to glow with an iridescent neon light as preparations for a quick-boost maneuver were made. Meanwhile, the main weapon mounted in Jehuty's right arm started concentrating some more Metatron energy into a dense spherical blast, which would be launched aiming right at the demonic assailant's face with a chucking arm motion,

"Miss Meagan, I've completed my scan and I can confirm that I, uh... Have no clue where we are." Says an apologetic looking Heart from the little holoprojector on the flight console as a pair of ships drift across the vacuum of space. Meagan, the pilot of the lead craft of the two, sighs, leaning back into her flight chair with a sigh.

"Well, ain't that just bloody peachy... Oi, Red lass, any idea what we should do..?" The Argussian asks over comms to the other pilot. She recieves silence. "...Red? Roobs? You okay?"

"...Oi, Ruby, I know yer worried about tha others, but ye need to focus."

"Huh?" The other pilot snaps out of the trance she was in, brain quickly processing what her friend had been saying to her while she was silently panicking spacing out. "Ah, uh... Right, yeah... Yeah you're right, I'm not gonna get back just panicking, heheh..."

"Aye, I need ye out here so donnae go spacing out on me" Meagan chuckles, making light of the situation, "But yeah, what are we gonnae do about all this?"

"Um... Well, just because we don't know where we are doesn't mean it's impossible for us to find someone who does... I think? Uh.. Ask Heart if she can identify any planets that are populated."

The Argussian relays the request to her onboard computer, and Heart nods and dissapears for a few moments before returning "I found one, and it's close by too! Sending navigational commands to Ruby's flight computer and displaying them on yours now."

"Attagirl Heart. Aight Red, Heart found us an inhabited planet. Let's go take a look, aye?"

"Roger, following your six." Ruby acknowledges as the two craft bank and turn towards a planet, turning on their engines to begin flying towards the unknown, but apparently inhabited place nearby. The planet that none of them realized was part of the Sol system. Earth.

The two Aerospace craft drift slowly towards the planet that Meagan's AI assistant had found, the 'small' rock slowly coming into view and growing.

"Hmm, looks rather limited population wise.", Ruby comments as she looks over the planet, "If I had to guess, maybe a large periphery state or a lower importance planet in one of the minor houses?"

"Aye, looks that way..", Meagan nods, "Tha lack of dropships imply it's tha former, too."

At this the Argussian's faithful(?) assistant appears once more, "Miss Meagan, would you like for me to start scanning for local radio frequencies to try to contact anyone?"

"Aye, that'd help."

"Alright, scanning now!"

The dolls certainly weren't much less than rattled around like sprinkles in a mostly empty jar (I just made myself some icecream okay it's the best metaphor I can come up with), grasping at the metal walls of the hallway to get a grip to stop themselves from being jostled around.

"Is there anything we can do here, or are we just going to have to wait till this damn ship stops being used as a toy?" M4 asks, frustration creeping into the edges of her voice as she finds the situation she's in becoming out of her control.

But then the ship falls onto the canopy, seemingly discarded finally by whatever was acosting it at first. M4 sighs as the situation seems to lull in chaos for the time being, "..Alright, with that seemingly over with, we're still awaiting orders. I assume we're needed somewhere given the rather quick unfolding of events?"

 

[Flying Panda]

The sudden ocurrence of the chaotic storm had caught Gabriel Lightsworn off guard. On one instant, he was just finished fighting through a group of crazy leopard cultists, and then, darkness... He vaguely remembers waking up somewhere in the sands of africa, inside the cockpit of his trusty repair battle robot, the Gunleon. When he was finally able to focus, it was just a matter of tracking down and finding the rest of the dysfunctional little family he had tagged along with for god knows what kind of adventures were to come.

But all in all, it could have been a lot worse. Two members of his former party, Namie Gale and Wodan Ymir, were found in a matter of few hours. Perhaps the storm didn't scatter them too far apart. Whatever the case might have been, he wasn't going to complain about the presence of familiar faces on this ever changing paradoxical clusterfuck.

The mention of Leopards had peaked Wodan's interest as well as Namie's. Wodan was more vocal about this fact.

"I see you've encountered those detestable animals." He assumed they must be in a vague direction from where they were walking, "Come. Gabriel, Namie, we must exterminate the pests that still dare to walk this earth." Wodan decided to simply walk in a vague direction.

Namie simply muttered a "Yes sir." Over the comms. She placed her fingers on her forhead and began to massage her headache that was starting to form from the woman screaming bloody murder....no the headaches were forming even before she screamed, the sounds just made it worse. She just wanted to shout back, but that wouldn't do anything. Without too much thought into it, she made the Gespenst pull out a revolver and shoot into the air. After that she would follow after Wodan.

With no other viable paths to take, Gabriel agreed to go with them. "Yeah... About time we finished mopping these guys up once and for all. But let's be careful, we have no idea how much support we still have." With that, he punched the commands on Gunleon's main computer, prompting the lion to walk. He'd remain in silence mostly during the trip, except for perhaps, checking on Namie.

The mechanic quickly opened up a private channel after the revolver shot rang into the air, reaching out to Namie. "What's up? You alright there?"

 

[Guy of Z]

As Alistair focused, he could see a vague, distorted, humanoid shape. It seemed to be a more refined version of those other assassins' technology, making it even less noticeable. Another quake, and Alistair struggled to keep his balance. When everything was steady again, he bolted towards the one pushing the boy and swung the crackling ADVENT shock lance down on it.

“Sssss you should have died in Germany, outworlder!” A reptoid soldier in elaborate armor showed himself and readied a glowing weapon of deadly energy.

Thrusting brutally the reptilian warrior sliced a nearby guard into bloody ribbons onto the ground and aimed at Alistair

David quickly got visuals of the ongoing firefight as soon as he got in range...Whatever he was watching, it defied all comprehension...But he quickly shook off the shock of this new sight, whatever these things were, it was certain he needed to wait just a little longer to get some more context. However, he already had the Freedom's guns at the ready, should they need deployment.

Rob spotted something strange ahead, a similar unit to that strange swordsman's armor flew above the battlefield and his position. Desperately he wanted to get its attention before these Zelan creatures would inevitably execute him.

He had to escape even if it killed him it beat dying at these freaks whims.

He gathered all his strength and took off to run

Litia took note of her shot down probe and checked the records of her downed drone... Scorpion tail...




Being a little child that she is, her eyes widen and squeals in fear. "Monster... Aaah!!!"




Litia immediately orders her available drones to drop ordnance on the tail. Her remaining drones in the air immediately fired off some missiles towards the scorpion tail, and dropped some explosives.




Litia might've fought a war that ended her life, but she was not letting some creepy creature get close.




At this point, all her guns from her CIWS, to her 90mm railguns were ready to fire. She even considered loading a nuclear round on her 152mm railgun.

The Scorpion machine's tail withdrew with the rest of its body underground. But for only a second shot to fire at the intruder from behind..there were more than one of the Monsters.

Ada's sensors closely followed the demon's ascent into the skies. Melissa's adrenaline levels spiked up as she prepared for a fight. So far, the Geysers proved useless. But the scanners drew her attention towards the hand that was being aimed at her. Her eyes diverted down into the controllers.

Meanwhile, the main weapon mounted in Jehuty's right arm started concentrating some more Metatron energy into a dense spherical blast, which would be launched aiming right at the demonic assailant's face with a chucking arm motion,

The Giant noticed rising energy signatures within his ship from his foe...it was impossible such power was beyond the scope of what his spies had anticipated.

“This could be a threat..”

The Demon desperately maneuvered out of the blast radius, the Metatron blast narrowly grazed its armor scorching its seemingly invincible frame.
