The Forsaken Mechwarriors
Chapter 1
O ye of little faith
Jared "Hybris" Carlson looked at his Mech as repair techs go over it again to double check their work. Jared usually would be sitting down to dinner right now but some brass near the top got a burr up his ass to call for a night time strike against a Clan Scout star that had been running around the area trying to gather info but the Calliope turrets had kept them at bay for now.
Jared: I wonder if I'm going to have some help this time?
Just then from behind him a veteran Mechwarrior callsign Riff walked up beside and stared at Jared's mech before speaking
Riff: I still can't believe that that thing weighs 500 tons.
Trying to act social he responded.
Jared: Well it does but it acts like it weighs only 50 tons.
Riff: I came here to tell you you're on your own for this mission. Brinks said that one Super assault mech can easily take out a star of light mechs even if they are Clanners.
Jared: Nice to see that my brass is confident in my skills and my mech.
Riff: A super sized Atlas will do that to any person who commands something like that. Good luck private.
With that said he left the Mechbay leaving Jared in the middle of the floor alone aside from the techs.
Its times like these that make me wonder why the hell I put up with this shit.
He got onto the elevator that lead to the loading deck which was placed at the same level as the cockpit of the mech.
Within his mech he started flicking switches and adjusting his nerohelmet which connected his sense of balance with the mechs own advanced gyroscope giving the mech the ability to walk on two legs.
Jared: Command this is Hybris powering up.
