captain

“I guess more along a space yarn, but it’s a ship stuck between realms in the warp, it crew is an undead army” he smiled “it is also a massive ship too”

aid

“Once more, Thor and Tesla, till we have ourselves a winner” the door to his room opens up as someone enter and he muted his mic “wanted to get front row seats to the show?” He said jokingly

HEL

“If We so wished it We could take control of you and make you do it too, you have no command over us” She said in grim tone as she crossed her legs in the spot she was sitting, making the mech she was using look like a young school girl “now why are we having trouble with that garrison, whatever I’m moving, send Zeus to the garrison” she stood up and dusted of the her mech’s rear end “we will enjoy the only one time we can move freely from the AI core, remember internally we still are a young woman at mind so we will enjoy the life I live” she put her hands behind her back and began walking as friendly mechs landed near her “kindly gore them to death”

six

“Damn it, you shitty desert fighters, get us outta here, we can’t do anything here” she sighed in frustration “seven and swift better have results cause this isn’t gonna look good on us if nothing keeps getting produced” the command moved away from the fight

Kai looked at the captain. After a couple seconds she spoke up.

"I'm not even gonna try and understand all the science...But..How the fuck? Also, why did you mention it?" She drank from her coffee. His comment was slightly off-putting. She knew that in a story, that was known as foreshadowing.

[Flarbinia]

Zeus
"Negative. Power cells for twin lightning cannons depleted. Returning to base for recharge." Zeus said to Hel as he flew away from the battlefield.
Amaterasu
Tesla and Amaterasu fought once again, using their advantages to tip the odds in their favor. However, instead of ending a draw like last time, Tesla emerged the victor, though it was a pyrrhic victory. Thor was dragged away to be repaired after Amaterasu left the cockpit of the mech.
A-4
"Shitty? I am sure that you know the difficulty of maneuvering a large group of mechs through streets crammed with artillery emplacements, trenches, foxholes, craters, and rubble. Insult the Tian Kai Desert Fighters, the pride of Jin Lao, again and you will be "accidentally" left behind. As you humans like to say, capiche?" A-4 said to Six, his tone indicating that he was dead serious.

[Xichung]

captain

“It’s just an old story, the captain before always told it, like he was trying to spook us” he smirked and sighed “what was the reason you were here again?”

Aid

“And Tesla has been disqualified due to underhanded tactics, Thor is the true victor” he said with confidence

HEL

“Well then I see you need to be upgraded then” she went to her next objective “time to continue the killing “

six

“Under section 45678-435 B of the alliance mercenary and commander handbook, should an individual party threaten another and said other party is placed in a higher ranked position, secondary part may punish the primary party as they see fit” she smiled under her helmet “so you should refrain or I will enforce This rule”

[Flarbinia]

A-4
"Do you honestly believe that I give two shits about Alliance regulations? I was an officer in the Cao Cao Military back when it was still a few men hiding in spider holes and caves and I will continue to be an officer in the Cao Cao Military long after it has gone the way of the Dodo and the Monarch Butterfly. It is my word against yours and Angel's actions towards Yuan Lao does not paint the Alliance of Independent Planets in the best light. Besides, this is the Season of Radiations Storms. All long-range communications will have been cut off by the atmospheric interference. Not the best time to be picking a fight with Yuan Lao's former advisor." A-4 said to Six, his tone indicating that she was in not in a position to argue. The convoy continued to move towards the safety of Fort Gongsun Zan, AT-16 Attack Bikes pursuing them like a mountain lion stalking sheep, the troops escorting the Tian Kai Desert Fighters knowing they were being followed but unable to find them on sensors due to the approaching radiation storm.

“It’s just an old story, the captain before always told it, like he was trying to spook us” he smirked and sighed “what was the reason you were here again?”

"Just to ask what are next mission was sir, maybe get some details as to levels of danger to the Commander, and what I should be on the lookout for." Kai replied, finishing her coffee.
"Just a suggestion, sir, but maybe we should do a spacewalk to assess the damages to the ship, and possibly repair them as well sir." She set down her cup, and stood at at ease.

[Xichung]

six

“I don’t care, hurry the hell up and stop being a burden” she said in frustration “later I will deal with you, if you survive, I don’t let threats off easily” she had her team continue their mission

captian

“We aren’t that undermanned to need to go out on a space walk as for damages we are at minimal” he finished his coffee “your mission rating is rat, we just need to guard a supply shipment coming from our spy’s”

HEL

“There is an AI unit among that few I want alive” she said as sinister thoughts came to “now let’s begin operations chimera”

"Rat, sir?" Kai said, she had no clue what that meant.

[Flarbinia]

Connor Jax
"For the love of Ares, Six! You can play gunboat diplomacy with A-4 when we are not at risk of being cut down!" Connor Jax said to Six right before they were hit by the radiation storm, the garrison troops and regular army units who were unable to get to the safety of an APC in time being boiled in their armor by the heat or collapsing from radiation poisoning, the radiation obscuring their sensors. Seeing those moment of weakness, the AT-16 Attack Bikes split into several groups and charged towards the convoy, the howling winds drowning out the revving of their engines and the whoosh of Kamikaze Missiles. A light tank near the 505TH's position was the first victim of the AT-16 Attack Bikes, the mechs that can accurately shoot while moving firing their payload at any shadow that moved.

Kalen Dark, Currently on contract from RCMC, Ocean world Acadias

The rain fell heavy on the smooth, clear screen of the scope of the rifle. Two guards, independent alliance grunts, both barely awake in the hailstorm of warm water falling like tiny pebbles and splashing like a small explosion the the metal ground below and all around him. The installation was a sprawling complex covering an area of thirty square miles, it was a pain in the ass finding his target but he had it in sight now, the rifle one guard carried, a prototype energy carbine. More powerful and precise than anything the rebels had before, it could change their fates, not if he broke it though.

''Allen are your squads in place?'' he asked through his communications relay tucked in his helmet.
''Yes'ser'' came the reply in a gruff old earth southern accent ''Alpha one, two, three, and four are all in place, my platoon is ready when you are.''
''Start on my mark captain'' Dark responded. The RCMC had given him a platoon of special ops infantry to work with on this mission. Forty men, some of the best the RCMC could spare and they only gave him forty, this installation alone had forty squads of new automated infantry units. Forty men would be nothing and not have a chance at taking the place but they would give the guards a nice distraction as he got his own job done. Dark jumped off the roof gracefully gliding down to the lower balcony below before jetting to a far off ledge and grabbing on only by the hands, above the two guards passed followed by a full procession of scientists, guards, and automated infantry. Now was a better time than ever.

''Engage'' He said calmly
From all sides gunfire erupted focusing on the group on the bride while explosions blew a building into the churning sea, never to be recovered. Dark activated the jump kit and flew up to the bridge kicking one of the guards into the blue abyss while the other turned and prepared to fire the energy rifle but caught a bullet to the skull from Dark's pistol before the rifle was even leveled. Turning around he saw the parade of rebels was all gunned down and the rain mixed with blood to form a pool on the bridge. It was going well but already there were problems. The alarm had already been rung almost twenty seconds before schedule, that would cost lives.
''Pull back to extraction site. Have third squad cover fourth and second cover first alternating every forty yards until zone is reached.'' Dark ordered through the headset.
''Will-co!'' Came through in a hard southern accent that sounded like it was in pain.
The squads were moving now that was good, he grabbed the energy rifle off the slick red ground and attached it to his back before running off the bridge and jumping to a nearby rooftop.

After a brief run and a couple of dead guards he came to his own extraction site, a large round drop ship pad. ''Chloe send the pod down'' he asked politely into his direct-to-ship comm.
''Sending'' came the robotic but oddly female voice that was his ships on board AI system.
Almost immediately after he said that six robotic infantry came out wielding A6 standard ballistic rifles. Dark took cover and and whipped out his own sub machine gun. A hail of led came over his head drowning out the sound of the rain. After an instant the bullets halted and the clank of metal on metal came slowly towards Dark, activating the jump kit he zoomed to the left out of cover unloading a long burst of shots catching two robots in their heads sending them falling like a rock. The rest not stunned by their comrades death fired and only barely missed. A well placed grenade by dark thrown while zooming took them all out a second later as a a metal capsule big enough for a man came down and landed in the middle of the pad.
''Only a little late Chloe'' Dark said sarcastically.
''I tried my best sir and I assure you I am at one hundred percent functional capacity.'' Was the machines oddly charming response.
''Status report on the grunts?'' he asked already knowing the response
''Charlie squad engaged but dropping fast and cut off from extraction point. They will not make it. Predicted casualties from mission, thirty-eight.''
''Survivors?'' He asked genuinely confused while climbing inside the pod and shutting the hatch.
'' PFC Corden and SGT Halmer already on ship, rest of alpha depleted. Captain Allen died on the drop ship on the way to the Prowler.'' The machine paused ''New transmission from General Marker, a new contract with several zeroes after the big numbers.''
''Tell the good general I'll be right there.'' And the pod shot off into space towards his personal stealth ship.

[Flarbinia]

Admiral Diaochan
"We have received a distress call from a research facility belonging to Triton Shipyards. I am sending Scamander Fleet to Acadias to investigate the distress call and provide any assistance they can to the troops stationed there." General William, one of the Alliance commanders on the Hell Front, said to Angel and Admiral Diaochan before cutting communications. "This is not good. First we lose contact with our forces in the Tian Kai Desert, now our primary supplier of destroyers, battleships, and amphibious mechs is being targeted." Admiral Diaochan said to Angel as she turned her attention back to the holographic map of Cao Cao, the lack of green figures in Yuan Tan indicating that it had fallen to the combined might of the AI and her new mech.

[Xichung]

Angel

“Damn it, look we lost this planet, we will give anyone stuck in that rad storm 3 days, then we quarantine the planet, nothing in or out” she said in a frustrated tone “if you have any issues with that, then go to the planet yourself and defend it” everyone knew this order was final and no one should go against it

six

“Alpha, delta, set up defensive positions, we aren’t going anywhere in this storm, set up the the anti-mech weapons and gun these machines down” she pulled out her sword and blocked a few bullets that flew at her and Connor “Connor assist them”

[Flarbinia]

A-4
"Great minds do think alike." A-4 said to Six as everyone got into defensive positions, mechs continuing to fire volley after volley of lead, every explosion indicating that an enemy has been destroyed.
Admiral Diaochan
"No need to quarantine Cao Cao. The Cao Cao Military is currently blockading the planet. Nothing will be getting in or out without authorization. Cao Cao is not lost, as we still control ninety-eight point nine percent of the planet's surface if you count mountains, oceans, and coastlines as territory. A leader should never throw in the towel when the odds are still in their favor. As for the radiation storm, it is a small one." Admiral Diaochan said to Angel right before they received a transmission from Cao Cao, one that was being broadcast to every city, town, village, and military base that had not fallen into machine hands. "This is Song Tsung, Cao Cao Broadcast Network, reporting live from the trenches of Gao Yao, where, earlier today, the brave men and women of the Gao Yao Volunteer Militia and the 12th Diocletian triumphantly routed the Machine Army. The death toll is in the hundreds, with a thousand Missing In Action or dying." The reporter said to every one who was watching the broadcast, Angel and Admiral Diaochan noticing that he was completely omitting the contribution of the 75th Barca and 16th Hojo to the defense of Gao Yao.

[Xichung]

angel

“I’m not taking a single risk, how do we not know that radio transmission was fake” she looked at him “I know this planet has personal connections to you, but let it go, don’t let your emotions drive you actions” she began walking away “over a million planets in this galaxy and you can’t let go of one, whatever, we’ll get it back eventually” she sighed “just not now”

six

She kept watch, using her sword to cut down any machine that close “they are a pain” soon gunfire stopped “they are dead for now, we need to rest up and wait for the storm to past, who calls watch?”

[Flarbinia]

Admiral Diaochan
"Angel hasn't slept for a week. Take her to the infirmary. Hopefully, the right medication can ease the night terrors enough for her to regain natural thought." Admiral Diaochan said to the guards, the men who were itching for their trigger fingers escorting Angel off the bridge instead of gunning her down, not wanting to incur the wrath of Yuan Lao's daughter. "You just sent the leader of the Alliance of Independent Planets to bed without her supper." The junior officer that had informed her about what was occurring on the ground said to Admiral Diaochan. "If there is one thing your father Yuan taught me, it is that insomniacs make terrible commanders. I, for one, do not wish for our home, our cradle, our grave, to be lost because my superior failed to get enough sleep." Admiral Diaochan said to the junior officer before gazing back at the holographic map, the radiation storm continuing to head towards the coast. "How long before the radiation storm passes, Taizong Tsung?" Admiral Diaochan said to the junior officer. "Three hours at most." Taizong said to his mother.

[Xichung]

Angel

‘I knew it, they were traitors, just feeding off the war economy’ she thought to herself she then looked at the guards, both heavily armed but she was far better trained than a couple thug equivalents “I don’t need guards to take me to my room, plus iv been able to sleep fine, he just lying to you so...” one of the guards shoved her “shut up damn it, we don’t care what you have to say” the other guard smiled “plus why would we turn on someone who been paying so us gracefully” and put his hand on her shoulder “maybe we can teach ya few things about his graces” she then grabbed his twisting and making it pop out of its socket and threw him to the other, causing the other to hit his head on a wall making him go unconscious “as I thought, I run the alliance in hopes of freedom, but such freedom comes at a cost of corruption, all you Cao Cao care for is money” she grabbed the still conscious guard who had no control in his one arm, she pulled out the knife she kept in her boot and pressed it against his throat “I knew I could trust you greedy bastardize, so tell me what is keeping him to that planet and it’s not family ties!” She growled as she lifted him up with one hand “I-It’s the vaults, he plans on taking the money from the vaults so he can rival the council for power!” The guard said as he wet himself, urine dripping down his leg “please don’t kill me” the guard pleaded, she stared him down, fury in her eyes “coward...” she said coldly as she then knocked him out, soon placing the guards in a storage locker. She then stomped her way to the bridge “like hell im letting you take my ship”

alexander

“The agent in the Cao Cao, how is he faring again?” Fay nodded and pulled up the latest report “currently they are finding ways to subdue angel, also a new threat has appeared within alliance boarders” Alexander nodded and smoked his pipe “then their main defense fleet it is out of the picture for now, let’s go and attack” star chart opened up “we let you get this far cause I wanted to save the show till you couldn’t do anything angel, but this, this is a jolly good show” he chuckled as he marked locations, he had garrison an extremely massive amount of troops for one giant push, even hiring major merc corporations to join his side and prevent them from joining the alliance “and fey, remember that kid we sent on that mission to retrieve the weapon, have him bring it back, we are gonna rip it apart and mass produce it” he smiled “also tell the agent to kill the council, we don’t need those geezers backing the alliance anymore” ships were soon set in positions as warp gates opened up, leading the attacking forces to their target “Fay, have them bring online the tempest, it’s time I joined the frey” he smiled as fey ran off and every planet on the front lines of the alliance got hit

commander Johnson

“Wonderful work” the old commander met the mercenary on a main cruiser “we will be taking the gun and your payment has been made” he smiled “we have another job for you, kalen, it seems we have a few pests among the alliance we want you to exterminate, we will pay double if need be”

"Rat, sir?" Kai said, she had no clue what that meant.

commander

“Didn’t you study the mission tiers?” He said confused “whatever, it’s a simple threat level meaning weakest, the highest is dragon, so their shouldn’t be any complications, but do be carful”

[Flarbinia]

Liu Fei Hong
"Are you alright? Being kept awake by night terrors is bad enough for your health without any injuries." Liu Fei Hong, the Shaolin monk assigned to the ship as a chaplain, said to Angel as he approached with a few guards, the tone in his voice indicating that he is barely keeping his anger in check after hearing what she said. "Wait a minute. Your brother Guan is supposed to be on shore leave." The guard with the light machine gun said to Liu Fei Hong as he saw the face of one of the unconscious guards. Confused, Liu grabbed the face of Guan and squeezed, ripping off the synthetic skin covering the man's face, revealing him to be a Caucasian man with blonde hair and blue eyes. "It appears that the Shadow Agent was planning to shoot you out the nearest airlock with the assistance of the one man on the ship who cares more for power and personal wealth than defending Cao Cao. Consider yourself lucky that easily bribed men are not known for competence or you wouldn't be standing here right now." Liu Fei Hong said to Angel as he escorted her to the infirmary, the guards taking the RCMC spy and the traitor to the brig. After half an hour, they reached the infirmary, Yuan Lao's personal physician, now senior medic of the Jade Turtle Fleet, performing a quick check up before prescribing some sleeping pills and anti-psychotics, Angel heading back to the command center after Liu Fei Hong told her that she only had to take her medicine at night and that it would be another hour until dusk.

"Understood, sir." Kai said. She waited for the captain to dismiss her or say something.

[Flarbinia]

A-4
"I see guidance beacons eighteen Klicks from here. If we follow them, we will be in artillery range of Gongsun Zan by the time the storm passes." A-4 said to Six over the comms, the convoy beginning to move again, Cao Cao military doctrine dictating that a force hunkering down during a radiation storm is to immediately head to safety the moment they see a guidance beacon.
Admiral Diaochan
"This is General Ferdinand! I don't know what happened! One moment we were driving the RCMC all the way to Everglades, next moment we are falling back to Achaemenid with our tails between our legs. How did Intelligence miss this?" General Ferdinand, one of the alliance Commanders on the Wild Hunt Front, said to Admiral Diaochan. "It was no secret that the RCMC High Command has been planning an offensive for months. We just assumed that it would be launched against Alliance positions on the Hell Front, not every world on the frontlines. Unfortunately, I cannot send any assistance, as Jade Turtle Fleet's manpower and resources are focused on problems at home, so I will have to relay your request to Pericles Fleet, as it is the only fleet within jumping distance that is not currently engaged with the RCMC." Admiral Diaochan said to General Ferdinand before ending the transmission, Angel walking onto the command center. "You're back early. Shame that the only good news is that the 12th Diocletian, 16th Hojo, and 75th Barca have returned, confirming the victory at Gao Yao." Admiral Diaochan said to Angel as Taizong brought up the star chart, the movement of enemy fleets indicating that the RCMC was attacking every planet on the frontline, the size of the fleets being larger than what the Alliance leadership had expected/anticipated. "In case you are wondering, I have already received three distress calls: one from the Hell Front, one from the Spartacus Front, and one from the Wild Hunt Front. Unfortunately, due to the risk of the Machine Army overrunning Cao Cao in the Jade Turtle Fleet's absence, all I can do is relay their request for reinforcements to every available fleet that can reach the frontlines in time." Admiral Diaochan said to Angel before switching the projector back to the holographic map of Cao Cao.

HELl

“The cenotaph is ready, she shall fly above the clouds like a great serpent and lay down pour down lightning from above” she laughed as she approached the gigantic machine, she was dwarfed by it even though she was in a mech “awaken my child” she touched the machines head and in seconds it was being programmed and given life. It started to power on and move, it long body resembled that of a centipede, minus the legs, but it moved like a snake. It was equipped with tech that allowed it to float off the ground and high in the air, along with a powerful shield.
This was their finest creation and as soon as the storm passes, the cenotaph shall be free. She stepped away and allowed the beast to awaken. She walked to engineering to fix her body for hand to hand combat and in close without worry of fuel.

Angel

“Wonderful” She said in a sarcastic voice “shall I add anything else to the list of issues” she had her aid bring her some tea “so much to set right and foolishness to break, my word seems not to hold any weight anymore and our top AI is out of commission along with an MIA assassin” she sighed as the migraine began to set in “commander I’m going to ask you one question and one question only, what in the ever loving god am I to you, just a joke?!” She looked at him pissed as she brought up the hallow map “comms officer, get ready to rely a lot of crap, cause I’m using the black dragon’s sub routine system to command on every front and admiral, next time your emotions get the better of you I’m sending you to the hold, same goes for anyone who agrees with him” the Aid came with the tea and she quickly grabbed and downed the whole cup as a holo keyboard showed up. She typed a pass code and soon a symbol of a microphone showed up in its place “angel; passcode Icarus” a green light showed and soon the lights on the ship went red she then cracked her knuckles “this my ship admiral and my rebellion, if you don’t like how I run it, then go start your own, now go to your room...” admiral started to make a comment and then she shot him a glare that could kill “...I have it under control, so get the fuck off my bridge” her own ships guards stepped up and grabbed him by the shoulder and whispered in his ear “well give you what you need to command in your room, but we suggest you move along” they started to push him along

six

“Send a forward troop, have a person come back every minute, I don’t want this to be a trap so I’m making precautions” she said as she took command know that the machines could have the same knowledge as them and the city could have easily been taken

[Flarbinia]

A-4
After half an hour, the forward unit returned and gave the all clear hand sign, the storm still raging. The convoy now double timed, A-4 and Six covering each other's flank.
Taizong
"This is Admiral Edward of Zodiac Fleet. We have been sent by General William to assist in the defense of Cao Cao. We will be arriving in twenty-six hours." Admiral Edward, the commander of Zodiac Fleet, said to Angel before ending transmission. "I will inform Admiral Edward of the tactical situation on Cao Cao when he arrives. Hopefully, he can pick up where my mother left off, considering that he is more willing to cooperate with the Cao Cao Military than you." Taizong said to Angel, his tone lacking any malice, hate, or anger.

[Xichung]

Angel

“Your thinking I was giving up on this planet” she smirked “hell no I am, but right now, to lose one to take a million is a success plan, ok?” She then barked orders as ships on the holo board moved “we need to ensure we can keep our promise to stop the RCMC”

lang Tao(RCMC spy/assassin)

His orders came in to finally enact his mission against the council and he was heading there, escorted by RCMC infiltration troops, killing any guard in their way with their silenced guns and superior training “iv sat at the top of this council for so long, time to finish it” he smiled as he placed fake handcuffs on and the troops kicked open the council door as they shoved him in and killed the guards “Damn it!” He called out. The rest the council getting ready to flee to the safe room, but being shoved back into their seats and handcuffed. One of the troop speaking up “stay still, unless you want to be blasted, we have something you need to sign, it’s to ensure your safety?”

HELL

“Well then, time to go my child” she was happy as the giant machine began flying towards the storm. It body well protected from the storm, as the Tesla flight system kept it off the ground.

six

“Be careful we have no idea what could come” she kept her sword at hand and ready to strike anything

alexander

He entered his mech as its thrusters powered on and systems check went off, it was time for its greatest flight in years. The tempest began moving from the space station that held it.

[Flarbinia]

Feng Shui Hao
"Angel! We have lost all communications with the Council of Five!" The communications officer said to Angel. "The lack of a Machine Army presence in that area and the distance from the recent radiation storm leaves only one explanation: the RCMC has infiltrated the Cao Cao Military and the Shadow Agency has either killed or captured the Council of Five in preparation for an invasion. Similar tactics were utilized against Bratislava VI when they refused to be annexed. We need to retake the bunker and rescue the Council of Five if they are still alive to ensure that the Cao Cao Military remains organized enough to hold the line until Zodiac Fleet arrives. Fortunately, the 1st Napoleon and the 3rd Manhattan have returned to report their success in delaying the advance of the Machine Army forces besieging Tao Qian. They are the only available regiments equipped for the terrain surrounding the Forbidden Bunker. I suggest that you lead the assault, as your mech is the only mech in the hangar with the firepower needed to blast open the doors to the escape tunnel." Feng Shui Hao, the older brother of Taizong and one of Admiral Diaochan's senior officers, said to Angel.

[Xichung]

angel

“The mech is equipped with the standard equipment, for now I must keep coordinating our movements on the front” she said as she soon barked a few more orders sending ships to support the defensive force “manhattan, is equipped to deal, but someone needs to assist them”

Lang Tao

“Now sign the documents or we shoot you” the infiltrator said to the council as the other infiltrators aimed them, safety being switched off “they just ensure your safety, so you better do it”

[Flarbinia]

Ming Tao
"Why are you doing this, brothers? The RCMC sat back and watched us kill each other, only intervening when Yuan Lao was on the verge of defeating the tyrant Wu Shang. The Alliance brought unity, peace, and prosperity to Cao Cao after generations of division, war, and destitution.
