AN/ Hey guys Golden Sheath here, so this story came to me in a dream and has been at the back of my mind for weeks now. I just had to write it up, please understand this is an experimental fanfic so I have NO IDEA how successful or unsuccessful this story will become so feedback and constructive criticism will be welcomed but please, no flames.
I'd like to send a warm shout out to Bobby Redshirt he's my partner in this story so we will be working together from now on, I will be using my OC, Travis Mercury from my other Titanfall story, The Losing Side, while Bobby will be using his OC Kax Autto from his Titanfall fanfic, IMC's winter soldier.
Please enjoy and review.
IMS Colossus Kax Autto
Here I was sat down in the middle of another drink, it had been very boring in the IMC lately. The Militia had been strangely laying low only attacking the smallest of IMC outposts and colony's with the minimal amount of men and Titan's, that also immediately disperse whenever IMC reinforcements arrive.
It looks like things might be starting to calm down in the Frontier, but I know from personal experience that it only takes a spark for the inferno that is the war on the Frontier to start all over again. Sometimes an uneasy peace is worse than war it can be said here now more than ever.
I took another gulp of my whiskey and started to think about what had happened since Demeter and the loss of the Hammond Robotics facility, that was when the IMC was on the ropes. There were uprisings in multiple colony's under IMC control, some people in the IMC like that traitor Ex-Vice Admiral Graves immanently lost faith and left the IMC like how Blisk put it "Changing sides like changing socks" and immediately joined the Militia.
From there the remaining pilots of the IMC were pressed into battle after battle at increasing odds of losing as the Militia ran rampage across the Frontier, it was only recently the IMC was finally starting to get things under control again.
Kax was immediately thrown out of his train of thought when an IMC pilot came crashing into the bar next to him making Kax actually jump out of his skin and spilling some content of his drink.
"AND THAT'S WHAT I THINK OF YOUR FUCKING KILL STREAK!" Kax heard a familiar voice shout, looking over he saw his equally hot headed and badass friend Travis Mercury walking with purpose up to the IMC pilot who was getting up.
"Travis!" I shouted "How many more times do I have to say this! No fighting in the bar!"
Travis turned and looked at me "What?! he pissed me off!" The IMC pilot who getting up launched forward and punched Travis in the face, but Travis quickly recovered and sent a kick into the IMC pilots stomach Travis then tried to sent a elbow into the IMC pilots neck before wrapping his arm around the neck as well to perform a perfect choke hold, the IMC's pilot however with a grunt did the same to Travis and twisted his body making both men fall to the floor.
"Little punk!" said the IMC pilot as he tried to jump on Travis.
"Shithead!" Travis replied swinging punches.
"Break it up!" another IMC pilot was trying to break up the fight.
I looked around the bar and you would think on an IMC ship everything would be disciplined and this fight would never happen, but things have been so boring lately that the IMC grunts and pilots that were watching the fight didn't do anything to stop it, in fact some of them were enjoying it especially the grunts.
Sighing I drank the last of my whiskey and assisted in breaking the fight up grabbing Travis and pulling him away, I could here the disappointed tuts and sighs coming from some of the IMC grunts. I dragged Travis out of bar I've lost count of the times I had to drag Travis out of a bar fight...or any fight at that wasn't against the Militia.
I threw him against the wall and held him there "Seriously Travis you'll be banned from the bar at this rate, you keep pushing your luck and someday I wont be here to pull you out, get your head out of your ass"
"Yeah yeah thanks mum" Travis replied sarcastically, pushing back.
"What you want me to change your dipper now?" I said with just as much sarcasm
"How about you kiss my ass" said Travis getting free "Whatever, I'm going to the gym, you coming?"
"Might as well, might not get another drink at the bar because of you " I said
"Kax you drink too much" said Travis walking away towards the gym.
The two pilots walked through the underbelly of the IMC flagship until they reached the gym. It had everything you could ask for weights, treadmills, bar's for pull ups, benches to lift they had it all.
"Alright!" beamed Travis "The gym, a place were real men hang out"
"You better leave then Travis, your far too young" I said sarcastically
"I'll belt you one if you don't shut the hell up Kax" threatened Travis with a small grin on his face.
Travis and Kax started a warmup on the treadmill, running in intervals for the first fifteen minutes then a solid run for twenty when they were done Kax stepped off.
"I'm going onto the weights" I said motioning to a bench with multiple weights along the side.
"Cool, I'm going for a full cardio workout I'll be with you in a bit" said Travis as he set the treadmill to a thirty minute run at an increased pace. While Travis was running I laid down on the bench and grabbed some 20kg weight holding one in each hand and against my chest, I pushed them upwards making them do a *clink* as they hit one another.
Closing my eyes to concentrate I did three sets of thirty before changing to 40kg and from there do four sets of forty, me and Travis used to do bets on how many sets we could do weather it be press ups, sit ups, pull ups or weights Travis and I would bet half our pay on the result, I was well built athletically while Travis was built with almost inhuman amounts of endurance so the result would always be close.
"How much you up to then?" said Travis now standing next to Kax, Kax opened his eyes to see a slightly panting Travis who was covered in sweat.
"I'm *grunt* almost *grunt* done" replied Kax now slightly struggling to lift the weights as he was on his final set. Travis took off his shirt and jumped up onto a pull up bar, he them started doing pull ups at a steady pace making them look easy. When I was done with the wights he put them down felling the burn in my arms, I snuk a look at Travis's face and body. His face had a scar running from the top of his right eye down to the top of his right cheek, as well as a scar that ran from the center of his left cheek down to his chin, he had medium length brown hair and brown eyes, his body had quite a few scars and burns on it but he also had a lot of evenly toned muscle everywhere. Not that I didn't, I was one of the top pilots of the IMC for a reason, my perfect skill with the GA24 rifle made hme both feared and hated by the Militia, thus almost loved by the IMC.
Giving me the nickname "The Blue Sentinel"
I was also a master of Titan combat earning well over 30+ Titan kills ever since I joined the IMC and had the strength, speed and athleticism to back it up, I have short blond hair and green eyes and had nowhere near as many scars on him as Travis did, hell I was there when Travis got some of those scars weather that be him engaging a Militia pilot or multiple Militia pilots, A Militia Titan or if Travis was being EXTRA stupid multiple Militia Titan's...
Travis was reckless but dammed effective, he was hot headed and brash which annoyed me somtimes, but the IMC needed Pilots like Travis despite him being still generally young he put his body on the line over and over again in order to achieve victory...Travis was a motor...a motor that never quits no matter how many bullets get shot at him.
Kax saw a female IMC pilot stare at Travis as he did his pull ups, Travis's eyes were closed as he focused on breathing while did his pull ups. The woman was staring at Travis with interest until she noticed me looking at her, I tilted my head in Travis's direction and raised my eyebrows smirking the woman blush slightly and looked away making me slightly chuckle.
"What's so funny?" asked Travis
"Oh nothing" I replied
Once the two were done working out at the ship gym they went too and cooled of in the showers before coming out refreshed, from there they got changed into fresh clothes it was straight to the armory.
"Travis I said it once I'll say it again the GA24 rifle is by far the better weapon than to the CAR SMG it's got far better at accuracy and obviously better at range" I said to Travis as we walked into the weapon area and picking up a GA24 rifle
"But at close quarters the CAR SMG kicks the GA24 rifle's ass and can hold it's own at at medium range" said Travis as he picked up a CAR SMG and inspected it.
"That depends on the pilot Travis, at close quarters a trained pilot like me can snap up my rifle at close quarter combat and hopefully take care of any situation that comes and the is the attachment known as Match Trigger for the rifle" I said
"Hopefully? Kax we all now that you suck at close quarter combat ,why not just give yourself an R101-c Carbine or maybe a Spitfire LMG if you can handle the recoil." replied Travis
"Travis...have you taken the stupid pill this morning?"
"What crawled up your ass and died?" asked Travis
"The same B.S. that comes out of your mouth, is your ass jealous?"
"How about I shove my boot so far up your ass you'd be able too taste my shoelaces for the next two weeks" retorted Travis sizing up to me
"God damn Travis you didn't fall out of the stupid tree, you were dragged through the Moron forest" I replied not backing down.
"Hah, your insults are about as useless as a kitten condom"
"That ain't funny but your life?...now that's a joke"
Travis was about to retort again when the ship alarm went off.
"ALL PERSONNEL TO STATIONS, ALL PILOT'S TO THE COMMAND BRIDGE". "REPEAT ALL PERSONNEL TO STATIONS, ALL PILOTS TO COMMAND BRIDGE". said the Ship A.I.
Me and Travis immediately ran to the command bridge wondering what was going on.
