Not open for further replies.
Space

Kioko cursed as her power armour went spinning through the emptiness of space because of her gunship's explosion, she hated this her suit wasn't responding very well but she kept trying to stop the spinning as she saw shuttles going towards the moon that was the destination for the moon, she started to feel sick because of the spinning but tried her thrusters again this time they flare to life and made her stop spinning but shot her straight into the side of the Combat Drop Shuttle making a loud thud both in her suit and in the shuttle. She was trying to think back to just before the explosion and smiled as she remember the frequency for the YSS Soyokaze's communication systems and tries to patch through for help "hello, Sssoyokaze crew, I am Sssanto Hei Gargandottir please don't be alarmed that thud was me on your ssshuttle, but I would like help, the gunssship I wasss on exploded and it sssent me flying over here, isss there anything you can do, like open the ssshuttle for me to enter?" her voice was calm and ladylike excepted for the weird way she said S's.

Kioko held onto the shuttle while she waited for a response to her messaged and hoped that they would let her in before they get to close and things started to turn bad for her, she knew that the people in the shuttle may not let her in as it seemed like a trap "thisss isss not a trick, I am who I sssay I am, I can sssend you my information if you ssstill don't believe me, but I hope you underssstand I am a friend".
 
Drop Ship

Ume nodded to Misato's instructions and responded with a "Yes Sir." She wasn't too nervous about having to go to was but rather about her performance, she did not have enough life experience yet to understand the fear of dying, most everything but her training was only data in her head after all. When she heard the thud against the side of the ship she was doing a final check on the pre-programed behavior patterns for Nodal support drones that came with her MINDY suit. She perked up, a bit interested in what this voice had to say. Of course Ume was not in a position of rank where she could make the call to open the ship or not so she waited for the others to see what they had to say.
 
Moon Town 2 / Radio Station

Elina saw the sudden flare up of a star were one wasn't suppose to be. She stood up and moved to the view port. Light reflected off the shuttle as it hit sending dirt, rocks and dust exploding up off the ground.
Committing the area where the shuttle had hit and slid, She fled her station, and ran through the Dome to the only working hanger/garage.

She made a quick detour to get an old friend who knew how to operate one of the Moon Surface Rescue Vehicles. It was a big lumbering vehicle with catipillar treads that was just as bigg as the Transport shuttle that just crashed on the Moon.

"Fred! I need your help." Elina looked around her, seeing them alone as it was late in the night shift. "A Transport crashed on the moon about halfway between Moon Town 1 and 2." She was fidgeting to get moving.

"Elina. This better not be a wild goose chase. It's our last vehicle. What if it is the Mishu? They would just confiscate it." Fred looked at her itching to go.

"I swear if I'm the cause of the lost of the vehicle. I'll give you all of my ration for the next three weeks!" Elina spoke desperately. She looked around and whispered, "It had Star Army markings on it."

Fred sucked in his breath, grabbed his doctor's bag, "Lets go!"

Both took off to the Hanger/garage where the big Rescue vehicle sat, avoiding everyone they ran across. Entering the garage, they secured the door and powered up the hanger and then ran to the big vehicle, climbed up the ladder and entered the big slumbering beast of a vehicle. She followed Fred into the control section of the vehicle and fired it up. It took several long minutes to get everything checked and secured for the trip outside the Dome....
 
///Drop Ship\\\

Meiko knew the fear of dying well, but she didn't show it, she was good at not showing how nervous she was, and the mask of the suit made it that much easier to hide from the others. She listened to Misato, and repeated the orders in her head and then nods. "Yes Ma'am. Not one friendly fire incident." She checks over her equipment one last time in preparation for landing.
 
Space

Nenene rolled her fighter out after blasting some battle pods and avoiding their burning wreckage. She was close to the Soyokaze now and knew she needed to be back aboard the ship. She was an operative and executive officer, not a combat pilot.

"Ise to Soyokaze flight control, open a portal in the shields for the fighter bay when i approach and close it behind me. I'm returning to the ship."

It would be very close of course, they could not leave an open gap in the shields for more than an instant. She got an affirmative response and gunned her engines, sweeping in towards the fighter bay.

Several battle pods attempted to get a bead on her, but the cruiser's anti armor guns picked them off quickly. The portal opened as she closed, the range between her fighter and the ship almost zero. She shot through, the portal snapping shut right behind her. Nenene kicked in the breaking thrusters hard, revering at full power to keep from slamming into the far bulkhead.

Shs came to a stop within a meter of it, extended her gear and set down with a solid thud.

Nenene popped the canopy and crawled out, jumping to the deck and sprinting for the hatch, unfastening her flight helmet as she ran for the lift that would take her back to the bridge.
 
Shuttle

Rafe held on as tight as he could as the shuttle began lurching around crazily. His stomach was up to his ears but he wasn't about to lose his lunch in front of his teammates.
 
Bridge

Takeyu cursed upon hearing about the loss of three ships and even a few of their fighters, not exactly how he wanted to start off his first command... losing people. Thankfully they had the technology to revive them, but that mean it was a good thing; losing people in a battle only meant that they had less manpower and ships. Despite those losses though they still had the upper hand, with the number of battlepods decreasing steadily it meant less people would die and the battle would get much easier, but he had to figure out some method to reduce losses to his fleet... but right now he had other things to worry about.

"Bring the ship about, target the last enemy escort with the aether array; alert any of our ships that are in the firing path to move! Wait until the enemy ship gets closer to us before firing though," he wanted to ensure that the enemy wouldn't evade; just because it was a shock array didn't mean that there wasn't a margin of evasion that could be done. "Once fired, perform an evasive maneuver and move us out of its flight path, just in case."
 
Bridge

The crew started hopping to their jobs. The ship started lining up, but the Plameria class Gunship Lancelot swung in front and fired it's Aether at the NMX ship. the Escort/Destroyer took some damage from the near miss. the blast continued on to the edge of vision. the Lancelot rotated up and out of the way just before the NMX ship rammed into it. The range now was quite tight, if the Soyokaze missed by any degree plenty of wreckage would still smash into it.

Dropship

Misato heard the thump and quickly scanned the area with her mindy. "Pilot hold pattern we have a surviver out there." With out waiting she popped the airlock and reached out grabbing the Mindy. Once the surviver was in Misato ordered the force to the Moon listening base.

As they flew Misato stood up and qued up by the door. "Ok folks as soon as we hit the deck out behind me. We'll sanitize the base. Move quickly and stick together. All reports is this place isn't that big. You newbie... You stick to my left hip as if you are glued" she pointed at the person she just rescued, she wished there was more time to get to know each other but the mission was on.

The Drop ship hit the deck and fired blowing a hole the airlock to the base. The mishu were fine but some of the NMX nekos not in their suits died quickly. Misato ran forward into gunfire and smoke.

Crashed Shuttle

The shuttle laid on it's side, crumpled. from outside one could see the silent hissing of the atmosphere racing out into the vacuum.Inside there was the hissing and the groans from the three mindy clad nekos in the back. Chiasa would find that Chieko knocked out with a small tear in her AIMES suit. Outside a monstrous machine was rolling closer and closer to the shuttle. It's headlight shining brightly through the forward window.

Takeyu mentally cursed at the captain of that Plumeria, had his gunners fired upon lining up that ship would've been destroyed; it just luck that they waited. When the ship was properly lined up, and they were certain no more of their companions would get in the way, he turned toward his fire. "FIRE!" he shouted and awaited the firing of the shock array and the resulting aftermath. "Then move us out of its path!"
 
Crashed Shuttle

Chiasa looked at Chieko's suit, she needed to stop the leak. A flash on the AMES specs showed there was no repair kit. She then reviewed the standard T8 shuttle supplies. Then climbed into the back and grabbed one of the survival kits. She reached in and grabbed the CASTER dispenser. She turned to the two power armor clad soldiers. "Looks like we have company approaching. Get the rear hatch open and take up a defensive posture. No aggressive action unless they prove hostile. Move it." She called out them and returned to the cockpit.

She then looked at the damage to the AMES and applied a small amount of Molecure tape along the tear. She then pinched the fabric onto the tape to create a seal. She double checked to ensure the suit was holding pressure.
 
Crashed Shuttle

The Nekos in Mindys were not the only ones groaning. The other two wonder scientists were also aching from the impact and wondering what the hell happened. Once things came clearer though, they began going over everything in the rear section to see what was damaged, what wasn't, and what they may be able to fix.

Chieko, on the other hand, took a while longer to come to, only seeming to start moving once the infantry girls made their way outside. The Minkan groaned from the pain she felt, but feeling pain was usually ideal to feeling nothing at all. "How bad did we hit?" she asked, still a little in a daze.
 
Dropship

Ume gave a light wave to the new soldier as she was pulled in by Misato, she didn't have much time to speak so for now a wave would have to do. Once Misato queued up Ume stood as well and readied herself, rifle in hand.

Once on the ground Ume made her way out of the ship in an orderly but swift fashion. Since Misato told the new person to stick to the left she moved to the right and followed, eyes scanning for any hostiles, her first priority was clearing the landing zone to make sure everyone gets out of the drop ship with no problems.
 
Crashed Shuttle

"Bad enough that the hull is leaking. The shuttle is sitting on its side which means we probably lost two of the aether drives. We have a vehicle approaching so I sent the Infantry to take up defensive positions while we take stock." Chiasa responded, and entered a few commands to pull up the status of the shuttle systems. It was standard protocol, deal with injured, secure the site and assess. The infantry were taking care of secure. Chieko's suit was no longer leaking. So it was now a matter of determining what condition the craft was in. Chiasa was still going over the events that lead to this situation. Their calculations were correct, their trajectory was fine until they approached the moon. Something unexpected about it must have altered their flight path and led to the crash.
 
Dropship

Kioko nodded at her saviour "thank you, and I will ma'am" she looked around the group in the Dropship and did a small wave then gets back to making sure she was by her saviour's side. Kioko smiled a bit and gulped "I am Kioko, Kioko Gargandottir" she did a small salute then kept quiet and kept her weapon to her side.

When the Dropship hit the floor Kioko moved with the crew staying to the left of Misato and watched the left side making sure no enemies flanked around the teams left side, her silver eyes scanning the surrounding checking for hostiles keeping firing to a minimum so she didn't harm civilians.
 
Crash Site

The big vehicle came to a stop and then lights specialy designed to light up the exterior of the vehicle, showed various markings ::

:Moon Town 2 : Vehicle 342 :: Search/Rescue/Salvage :

Then the vehicle eased forward slowly. The bright foreward facing spotlights shut off, leaving just a few on for the operator to maneuver the big tracked vehicle up long side the crashed ship. A ramp extended from the back of the huge tracked vehicle as it spun to face the rear towards the shuttle. Backwards facing spotlights flared, aimed more towards the ground than to blind personnel.

Then over common short range rotating frequency

"Huh.. Hi there.. Need a ride?" The voice was feminine; familiar if they had been listening into the local radio. "Please those with armor, can enter one at a time. Others can enter in three's. Injured first through the rear cargo airlock."

Then it was repeated in all of the known languages through a translating program.

The rear of the big vehicle, irised open to reviel the interior of the airlock. For a Power Armored encased person, it looked cramped. In standard spacesuit, looked quite roomy to hold three people, if the third wasn't on a stretcher.
 
Shuttle

Bors was outside of the shuttle, just behind Misato, as soon as the big nepleslian cleared the doorway his weapon went to his shoulder and began to scan the area looking for any targets. "Looks like its going to be a fun day at work eh princess?" He said with his usual smirk on his face.
 
///Drop Ship\\

Meiko looked at the new person Misato pulled in and then focused once more on what was going on around them. As they landed she moved out quickly, and orderly, but stuck behind the group so that she could keep a better eye on the people in her squad. She probably decided to do it also to protect herself, after all she was the squads medic, if she went down it would cause the odds of surviving to drop exponentially.
 
Bridge

Nenene stepped onto the bridge just as the fire order was given. She was still in her flight suit, helmet tucked under her left arm. The Exec nodded to the captsin as she crossed the bridge and slipped into her chair at her station.

Within moments Nenene had a mass of volumetric windows flickering into existance around her.
 
Crashed Shuttle

"I wonder if our original information on the moon was incorrect," the Minkan theorized, "If we had the wrong orbital velocity and with that, the wrong mass, the initial information that was available would have resulted in an incorrect calculation. It has been a while since the Empire has been out here, and we didn't necessarily see the moon from the main ship before leaving."

Chieko then attempted to stand up, resulting in a little bit of dizziness, but few problems due to the lower gravity. She then was about to make it out to the rear section when the signal came through from the civilian vehicle.

"Someone came to pick us up that quickly?" she asked with some surprise.
 
Bridge

The Soyokaze rotated under control 3 degrees starboard and 2 degrees nose up. The the hum was heard through out the whole ship, followed by a slight tremor as trillions of giga-watts worth of power tore out from the tip of the sword. The universe fore of the ship shimmered then flashed bright Purplish light ripped across the ferment. A large section of the Enemy ship was vaporised into a cloud of energy, but the last third of the ship continued forward.

The Soyo was just too close to make a proper shot on the Escort/Destroyer. Even Takeyu's order to preform evasive maneuvers failed as the flaming and burning ship slammed into the bottom section of the Heavy-cruiser. Sections of the hanger bay and the shuttle bays were torn open to the void. Hundreds of the crew were sucked out, crushed, or burned to death before the Soyo's internal emergency systems kicked in.

Flames rolled up and down the lower decks scorching and burning corridors and filling the lower sections with black acrid smoke, the stench of which would haunt the ship until her final days. Many of the Ship's support shuttles and fighters were damaged or all out distroyed. In one particular corridor a Juni was hurrying between stations when the blast hit. The heat and flames were so intense the only evidence of thier being there was a charred shadow on the bulkhead.

The remaining battle pods all suddenly gave up fighting and dove for the Soyokaze. Each one dodging and weaving to avoid the tracer flairs of the anti-fighter gun's fire. Hundreds of them were blown out of the sky before they even remotely reached the hull, but the few that did smashed in with the impact of minor kiloton atomics. A few dozen blasts tore small holes in the upper hull blowing out hull ways and incinerating cabins, re-damaging the sensor relay repairs that were just completed.



Listening Post

Rippers and Nekos by the dozens fired back at the invading force. Misato ordered a few of the squads up to help give more cover fire, the gun ship, once empty, hovered up to give supporting fire. "Riko, take a few of your people and head for the computer core. I'll hold here and start the main sweep through the facility. MAKE IT WORK PEOPLE!" Misato called out as she waved her team forward towards the defenders.

Her own guns blazed full fire, with blasts from her gauss weapons barking and flashing every few seconds. She leaned out and fired as he waved her people up. A Single blast ripped out, tearing her right arm off just below the shoulder, mid bicep. Falling out of cover another few shots slammed into her side. "CRAP!..." She looked across the way at her arm laying there. Dropping her weapon she tried to reach for it with her left, as she laid there in an expanding pool of her own blood. The world seemed so slow down for her, bolts of weapons fire above her rolled lazily through the air.

Three rippers started forward marching and firing at the Meiko, Kioko, and Ume that were following Misato. trying to get them as they broke cover to fire, or at least keep them pinned down until they could get closer and attack hand to hand.

Riko and his band of fighters had only a few NMX nekos keeping them from heading towards the lift and the computer core.



Downed Shuttle

The trio of Mindys took up station around the downed shuttle as the techs started helping Chiasa and Chieko get the emergency kits out, though one started for Chieko to check her out.

The Rescue vehicle got within a hundred yards, when flashes of light started hitting both the shuttle and the Rescue vehicle. The Trio Mindys opened fire on a small group of what looked like puke green Mindys. The NMX were attacking with cheep knock off copies. They had been on a standard patrol when the shuttle hit the deck.
