Megas MechWarrior Infinite Stratos

Chapter Two: Mechs, Megas, and Oh My!

"Okay, so I have to head over to this dot here right? Or is it this one here? Maybe it's that one? Oh wait, that one is marked red so it has to be it!" Coop shouted.

As Megas flew through the earth's atmosphere, Coop was trying to find the correct coordinates which had been sent to him earlier by Natalia who had asked him for his assistance on a simple recon mission. Problem is that he has no idea what to recon for but he will have someone named "the MechWarrior" to help him on his mission. At first Coop seemed reluctant but then he decided that he would help since the lady he was talking to made him very interested on how the earth he was currently traveling was different. Oh the happiness and joy he would have if he knew that this earth was actually different but sadly he couldn't since he didn't know that if it was or not but the recon idea seemed pretty good for him.

After traveling through the stratosphere, Coop was surrounded in darkness but much more like a night time darkness which he immediately realized that he was travelling in the night. He also realized that since he was in a giant robot flying over the Pacific Ocean, he would most likely cause some attention most unneeded so he flew Megas closer to the water's surface while travelling to the designated area. He travelled closer and closer to the large red dot on his screen and hoped that he was travelling to the right area but with a single glance he saw what he would describe as a mini death star landing on the planet earth. Assured that he was most likely travelling in the right direction, he stepped down harder on the gas pedal and Megas began flying at higher speeds.


Currently on the Icarus drop ship, the MechWarrior prepares for his reconnaissance mission on the planet of earth. After the Jump had taken a toll on their Jump engine's, Natalia had ordered the Icarus to drop down on the planet's surface and scout out any potential resource or equipment that could be used for repairing the Jump engines back into conditional order. The MechWarrior eagerly waits for further instructions and takes his time sitting quietly in silence while the many hands aboard the Icarus carry out their tasks and assigned duties. Suddenly, a large image of Foster pops out from the MechWarrior's visor, prompting him to immediately stand up.

"Alright MechWarrior, we are touching down on the earth's surface. Further scans indicate that this earth has actual modern technology back in the early third millennium. Meaning that the technology here is far more…primitive in a sense but however, their technology seems to be much more advanced than actually expected in the modern era of our other time so be expecting any resistance that they may have. We do not know what the people of this dimension or time are capable of so stealth is an important factor here so you need your battle armor for this mission."

The MechWarrior nods his head in response and begins his travel to the main Mech holding area where everyone prepares for the mission. Walking past the various people, the MechWarrior finally manages to reach his destination and is now standing in front of the Battle Armor in its standby mode but he notices that it is much different from last time he had seen it.

"We can't risk having a Mech out and prowling about so you're going to have to do this with your Battle Armor but don't worry since we had significant upgrades made for it. We replaced the mortar cannon with a small missile pod capable of unleashing a barrage of homing missiles than can destroy tanks with pure ease. Also, the jetpack has now been fully upgrade to be more efficient, powerful, and flexible meaning that you can now fly through the air as if you were flying in a plane. The other upgrade which I managed to make was a combat fist; it's basically a mobile and flexible hand but has sharp pointed fingers to dig into metal and concrete with no difficulty. We also included the use of an energy dispersion shield, meaning that lasers and other heat based and energy weapons will be considerably cut down in terms of damage. Everything else remains the same but we also managed to make the armor more durable unlike last time."

The MechWarrior makes a small smile but Foster notices and makes a large and happy grin on his face. The MechWarrior then proceeds to go inside the Battle Armor by stepping onto the feet of the armor. As soon as his own feet touches the armor, it quickly activates and immediately forms around his entire body which made him look much more larger and menacing than ever before. He then begins moving around the armor and test out the functional capabilities of it which made him impressed.

"Glad that you like the new upgraded toy but now back onto the task at hand, this will be a simple reconnaissance mission with you being assisted by another supposed Mech pilot we have just met out on the earth's atmosphere. This will be the Mech pilot you will be accompanying on this mission with; Natalia says that his name is Coop and that you will also be able to quickly identify him by the mech he currently pilots which I have to say is wicked impressive."

Two new images emerged in front of his view which showed both Coop and Megas. After carefully examining the two images carefully, Foster then reappears again.

"Your mission is to locate this specific area and scout out anything you can find of interest over there. Be careful, our data indicates that they have some kind of mysterious and powerful object over there and that is where our scans are picking up a lot of energy. So go find this area, scout whatever you can with your partner, and come back to the Icarus when you have found out enough information that we can use so good luck MechWarrior."

Foster then immediately disappeared and the large door of the Icarus began opening.


"Okay, this is definitely worth that tunnel of headaches." Coop spoke in awe.

Coop was looking at the enormous drop ship that stood before him, it was so enormous that it dwarfed Megas in size and not only that but it also looked like a complete miniature version of the Death Star which Coop loved so dearly.

"Man, I got to get me one of the babies. Speaking of which, where is that MechWarrior guy anyway?"

Suddenly, a large portion of the drop ship opened like a bridge and a small figure walked out of it which Coop tried to decipher what it was. It was basically some kind of large armor with a claw and helmet with a jetpack behind it, which Coop would describe it in his own words. However, Coop quickly realized that the small armored figure was most likely the MechWarrior in which he was supposed to meet but he was confused as to why he was wearing that armor in the first place. Immediately, a screen popped up showing the image of Foster who Coop didn't know about.

"Uh, who the heck are you?" Coop asked.

"Oh, I'm Foster, an engineer and fellow comrade of the MechWarrior."

"Oh okay, that makes sense. I got to ask though, why is he in that small piece of armor on steroids?"

"It's because we can't afford to be detected on this mission, you included. So the best course of action decided by Natalia was that the MechWarrior would do most of the reconnaissance while you provide transportation."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, there pal. I'm not a taxi service for anyone at all, why make me lug this guy all around and how come he just can't do it?"

"We lack the resources to do so and we don't have any capabilities to fly far and fast like your Mech there so you were our best option for this. Although your Mech is large, you can fly high and low enough to avoid any detection from the inhabitants of this planet. You are a key part of this mission since without you; it would be much more difficult to do so. Besides, you don't need to actually carry him; he can just hitch a ride from the back of the Mech."

"And how is he gonna do-oh that's how."

With the sound of metallic claws clamping down into hard metal, Coop looked back and saw only the helmet of the Battle Armor but was annoyed by the fact that he was ruining Megas's jetpack and other parts, "Hey, hey, be careful with that claw thing would you? Can't risk losing any fuel because of your claws digging into my robot's jetpack you know?"

The MechWarrior only gave a nod which Coop interpreted as a sign of acknowledgement but Coop still was annoyed by it. Foster was keeping quiet with the awkward situation but made a small cough to get Coop's attention which worked.

"You guys do know that time is limited here right? We can't afford to waste any time since we need information regarding to as where we are. Just let the MechWarrior hitch a ride on your Mech and we'll do some repairs when you accomplish the task, okay?"

"You got a deal."

"Good, now here are the coordinates to the location where you need to go. You have to fly high for this mission or else you both get risked of being spotted by their radar. Just fly over high on the coordinates and the MechWarrior will take over from there, just stay around high in the sky while the MechWarrior does his part of the mission. Once he's done, you will pick him up at this location on the ocean that should be low and far enough from their radar so best of luck to you guys."

Foster then disappeared from Coops screen and now he was left with just the MechWarrior clinging on to his giant robot's back. With one single glance from behind to check if he was stable, he then stomped on the gas pedal and Megas began to rumble and the engine began to roar loudly.

"Okay man; hold on tight because we are taking off!"

With the push on the throttle, Megas blasted off into the deep night sky and began travelling towards their assigned destination. As they traveled through the high skies, Coop took notice of the various lights and buildings down below which amazed him.

"Man, Japan is freaking awesome! I gotta come here at least once a year for vacation."

As the minutes gone by, a beeping noise started to come from the screen which Coop closely examined and found out that he was about to fly past their objective.

"Hey MechWarrior dude, we're gonna pass over the place in a minute. So you're going have to drop down onto the ground from here. Just send me a message to pick you up when you're done alright?"

With a simple nod of acknowledgement, Coop resumed back to piloting Megas while the MechWarrior himself waited anxiously in silence to begin the reconnaissance


Meanwhile, on the drop ship Icarus, Lieutenant Foster checks and looks through various computer monitors at around his desk analyzing whatever information he can find as to where they were at. Suddenly, a small screen came onto one of the monitors that instantly showed the face of his commander, Natalia.

"Foster, how goes the situation with the MechWarrior and his new pal?" Natalia asked.

"Well we haven't heard anything from them so far but however, I have been doing information scans here on an immensely expansive information network on this earth called the internet. Now what I have learned so far is that this earth has eerily similar history to that of our own planet but however, what I'm about to show will blow your mind away." Foster responded.

"Well then Foster, show me it already!"

"Sending data feed to you now commander."

With a few taps on the holographic keyboard and swiped of passing screens with a finger, a video was soon uploaded on the computer monitor where Natalia's face was showing. After a minute of loading, the video began to play and immediately caught the attention of both Foster and Natalia. It showed them a sparring battle between two I.S. pilots using various assortments of weapons and equipment as they fight and soar through the sky at unbelievable speed and pace. Natalia only sat in her chair aboard their war ship in space and watched as the two skillful pilots fight one another in a heated battle. However, the video quickly ends without showing who had won the battle but it did not matter to Natalia or Foster who now have something else to be worried about immensely.

"Foster, do you have any information as to what I just saw?" Natalia asked in a serious tone.

"Yes I do commander, what you just saw were two I.S. machines and pilots fighting against one another." Foster responded while checking a data tablet in his hand.

"What in the hell is an I.S. machine and an I.S. pilot Foster?"

"What you saw in the video commander, those I.S. machines are apparently the pinnacle of highly advance military technology on this earth. The studies I have seen indicate that these machines, if used in a war or battle, can annihilate rows upon rows of tanks, planes, and other assortments of military vehicles and such."

"So does that mean that these things are capable of taking on our mechs or much worse than that?"

"Well according to my findings, these machines do possess highly advanced armor and weaponry but compared to our own arsenal of mechs, they won't really stand much of a chance. Since we come from a more technologically advanced time and place compared to here, I'd say that our chances of fighting against these I.S. machines are good but we won't stand a chance if we have to face over hundreds of them."

"Well do you have any idea how many there are?"

"Not a clue but I do know this: that they limit the amount of I.S. machines created since it does create a lot of controversies and negatives for many nations who fear or want these machines and also that no man can pilot these things except for one man I happened to stumble across an article about."

"And who would that person be?" Natalia asked, with one of her eyebrows raised.

"A young man by the name of Ichika Orimaru, an adolescent Japanese male who had just made a worldwide appearance since he is the only known male to be capable of piloting one."

"Okay but how does knowing that one man capable of piloting these I.S. machines help us Foster?"

With a slightly scared chuckle and a nervous smile and receiving an angry glare from Natalia, Foster pulled up an image of a large school onto one of the monitors.

"This place is known as I.S. academy, this is where they train students into becoming I.S. pilots. The man I had just talked about also attends here but this place is also where….the signals were coming from." Foster said in a nervous tone.

Natalia immediately raised both of her eyes in surprise and anger and stood up from her chair and slammed down both her hands on the desk hard.

"Foster, do you have any idea how bad this is? We just sent the MechWarrior and a large flying mech to an academy where it is most likely the most secured area in the world! Hurry up and call them back now!"

"Well that might be a problem…"

"Why is that Foster?"

"Well, I'm just now getting a call from the man named Coop saying that he is being chased by some anime robots with teenagers in it but he has the MechWarrior and is coming back to the Icarus."

"WHAT? HURRY UP AND SEND IN SUPPORT NOW FOSTER AND MAKE SURE THAT NOTHING BAD GOES DOWN! IF THE POPULACE OF THIS PLANET KNOWS WE'RE HERE THEN ITS GOING TO BE ON HELL OF A PROBLEM!"

"I'm sending the message to all available MechWarrior pilots now commander!"

"Good, now call me back when the situation is under control!"

The screen closes down and Natalia sits back in her chair while rubbing her forehead in agony and stress. She could only hope that the worst doesn't come and that nothing bad could happen, or so she thought.


"AGH, JUST GET AWAY FROM ME YOU LITTLE PSYCHOS!" Coop yells as he steps down on the gas pedal even harder, trying to run away from his pursuers.

"Ima, sono mashin o teishi shi tari, watashitachi wa anata o utsu zo!"

"I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HECK YOU'RE SAYING!"

As Coop and the MechWarrior race across the ocean to avoid any conflict with their pursuers, the crew of the Icarus began their defense and scramble towards their positions to hold off the pursuers. The mech pilots inside the Icarus gather together in the Mech Bay of the Icarus for a debriefing on the situation with Coop and the MechWarrior. Foster descends down into the Mech bay from the elevator shaft and then walks out into the front of the large crowd of various mech pilots.

"Alright people, here is the situation. The MechWarrior and his partner are currently being chased by five unknown combatants of this earth. The only information we have on these unknown combatants is that they are I.S. pilots and are using I.S. machines. We have little information on the capabilities on these I.S. machines or the I.S. pilots and that they were made to be used in the military so expect a fight on your hands if it gets down to that."

A large holographic screen then immediately pops up from behind Foster and begins showing the images of the various I.S. machines that are chasing down Coop and the MechWarrior.

"Thanks to the efforts of the MechWarrior, we have some images of the I.S. machines that are currently chasing them down. Each of these I.S. machines that you see here has different capabilities and each one is very special and unique and performs a different role all together. However, we have little to no information as to what they do or the capabilities of their pilots so caution is highly advised when, if necessary, engaging them."

The images of the I.S. machines and pilots disappear and now showing the images of the Icarus and the environment outside of the drop ship.

"This is where the Icarus is; we are currently on a small and most likely abandoned island. This made it the perfect place to land the drop ship on the planet to be undetected and that we can also use it to stage a defense if necessary. The mission here though is to stop the enemy I.S. machines from chasing down or destroying both the MechWarrior and his partner. However, commander Natalia does not want a full on fight to break out or else we risk having a worldwide disaster on our hands so the goal here is to make contact with the enemy here through non-violent means, how that will work is the question that will only be answered when they get here which is about ten minutes so let's get moving people!"

The mech pilots begin scrambling for their assigned mechs and the veteran mech pilots begin shouting and barking out orders to their squad mates. After five minutes passed, the large mech bay door on the Icarus drops and a large group of Mechs begin to pour out from the Icarus and begin to take their positions and wait patiently for the worst to come.
