♫ Touhou 16 - Unnatural Nature
XSS Krampus, Bridge
From within his sealed commander's chamber on the bridge of the NMX Pillager-class cruiser, the ominous psychic laughter that once emanated from Master Commander Belsnickel's tentacled body soon began to fade. The tenacity of the XSS Orochi's power armor squad now united was too much from the Reaper-clad ship defenders to suppress for long, as they were slowly but surely overwhelmed in the protracted firefight. Overseer Percha, sadistic as she was, was eventually cut down once Mayu and Shiho coordinated their fire with their teammates without the worry of being pinned down by her evil Neko flunkies. Her Nightmare-type body eventually was sucked out into the void of space through a new gash that opened up in the hull, the red haired torture master's final screams now part of the expanding debris field that included hundreds of dead friend and foe alike floating against the nebula like a sea of blood...
This was part of the raider's plans, however. The sneaky Advanced-type Mishhuvurthyar officer planned the operation knowing that a certain portion of the ships would be lost in the escape. What he regrettably underestimated was the tenacity of his opponents, as what was left of his command ship's displays all began showing the same result... the rest of the battle fleet's Pillager-class cruisers were one by one being taken offline and commandeered by the Star Army defenders. Even now in his own ship, the human and even Vekimen prisoners had reached the hallway to the command deck just in time to hear. His anger reached a fever pitch as he bellowed to the assembled a curse:
"You May Have Won This Time, Thralls of the Neko Empress! But You Have Not See The Last of Me... Next Time You Will Be the Prey Instead!"
These words had not even begun to be spoken before the metal-rimmed chamber sucked Belsnickel into a private escape pod reserved only for the strongest leaders of the NMX, which promptly jettisoned into space, making a beeline for the sole remaining uncaptured ship, the Tivurthinth-class XSS Yuukan's Spite. Several other pods from the remaining ships joined his trajectory, as they were all scooped up into the protective graviton beams of its launch bay...
♫ Touhou 16 OST - The Sky Where Cherry Blossoms Flutter Down
Jun System, Space
The formation of 8 damaged Irim's, cannons and missiles blazing, advanced steadily through the battlespace between them and the NMX fleet, shredding what remained of the Battlepods after the wake of the enemy EMP discharge left the place looking more like a graveyard of their starfighter and power armored forces. Hope was not lost, however, as the gunfire soon ceased when reports came in for the ship's successful capture by the remaining infantry, though at a heavy loss of life in the process.
Using the confusion of the several Pilllager's confirmation as fully secured and no longer a threat, the Tivurthinth ship soon began rapidly accelerating, ducking behind them as a screen from incoming fire. Such a dishonorable thing to use hostages as a final shield for their escape, but then again.. Mishhu had no such illusions of chivalry.
The XSS Yukan's Spite had just begun to spool up its FTL drives at the edge of the system, when the YSS Orochi finally managed to get a clear shot with its dual-bladed Transposition Flux Cannon. A beam of intense energy ripped space and time momentarily apart between the ship and its foe, as a river of quintessent dark energy filled the trench with absolute destruction at the atomic level. This was usually never meant to be used near friendly installations and space, but Taisa Mikoto obviously cared little for such trivialities if she could catch and disable the elusive commander's remaining ship. Though it did knock the CFS shields right off the cruiser and leave its midsection's armor a smoking crater, there was little damage caused to its vital propulsion systems -- so, the demon Belsnickel was able to withdraw to live to fight another day, the trajectory of the Tivurthinth's rush to safety once again obscured by the nearby nebula's interference.
His trails in hyperspace had scarcely gone cold when there appeared a multitude of FTL signatures on sensors, many much larger than the collection of cruisers left in the system. One by one, the might of the 8th Standard Fleet made its presence known at last to the beleaguered defenders of Jun... Operations Division 1 was the first to arrive on site, its newer Sharie battleships and escorts protectively surrounding one of the most well-known of the cluster's remaining Anri-class Repair Vessels - the YSS Senbu. These were soon joined by elements of the 8SF Support Group's Logistics and Medical & Rescue Division that included the YSS Ketsurui Sora II, a Minori-class Hospital Ship that was truly was a welcome sight by both soldier and liberated colonist alike.
There was not much time to celebrate, however, as the planet below still needed to be cleansed of the Mishhuvurthyar ground forces before the citizens of the mining colony could finally return to their homes. It would be a long, difficult slog into the new year, but the brave pilots and infantry of Orochi knew that at least for today, Yuletide would be a day spent celebrating the greatest gift of all -- freedom!
