A Short Distance Away
Unbeknownst to the girls, a plane had passed by several kilometers above them, too far to make any notable noise louder than the humming of their vehicles' engines. A single dark silhouette leaped out of the aircraft, making a speedy decent towards the earth. It continued to move as such for a few moments at terminal velocity, before something unfurled; a parachute. Slowly falling for the last few meters, it finally landed on the ground softly, the large cloth that kept it from smashing into the ground following suit.
Perhaps we should take a closer look?
It was a Prussian paratrooper, dressed in full VDV kit, but without a weapon on her person. What she lacked in firearms, she packed in a large metallic box; a tapper. Taking off her goggles along with helmet and shaking her head, one would've seen as a rather good looking brunette, with beautiful grey-blue eyes. But all the beauty in the world wouldn't have hidden the faint sadness written across her face. She looked too young to witness the horrors of war, too young to have lost people she had entrusted her life with. But for now, for the sake of the experience of a younger generation to find their way to enjoy their youth, she'd act as an overseer.
Someone to watch over a battle of metal and fire.
"Hello everyone!~" she exclaimed suddenly into the radio sets of every tanker in the junkyard, "Pleasant place to have a fight, among the rotting bodies of war heroes... Or losers, whatever floats your boats. I, Sergeant Emilia Espoire of the Vozdushno-desantnye voyska Prussii, will be the referee of this match!"
"The rules are simple: This is an elimination battle, your goal is to knock out the entire enemy team. You may not use parts or equipment not sanctioned by the European Tankery League, voluntarily leave the competition area, fire directly upon humans, fire within a ceasefire-zone, attack a vehicle that has been declared inoperable, disrespect the judges or other participants, or perform any other actions that are judged to be "throwing the match". Do I make myself clear?!"
