"Lieutenant! Sir it seems that there has been a explosion in the northern fields of Rookware! What are your orders?" the young soldier asked as he looked out the window watching the smoke billowing towards the sky. Pike Perry was a one of a kind soldier that the lieutenant had took under his wing when the security was breached because of the Kennedy brothers. His talents inside a LFO were unmatched, and he was a skilled medic as well. That alone made him very valuable because most men were too scared to go near the LFO's.
"Calm down, CDT. Perry. Take your machine out there, and see what happened if you're so interested. I want a full report when you get back too," the Lieutenant said waving the soldier off. Knowing that the poor guy was probably aching to go see what it was he figured it wasn't right to keep him from going.
"Yes, Sir. Thank you," Pike saluted his superior before running out of the main office. His LFO the Type 4665 was the latest model since the ones the Kennedy brothers had stolen. Flipping the switch as he ran into the warehouse the doors raised so that he could exit easily with the machine. Climbing into the cock pit Pike checked all his settings and readings before launching. "Time to see who was stupid enough to fly into military grounds!"
A storm had moved in over the field located in the Rookware countryside. Lightning clashed across a dark sky that lit up a LFO that had crash landed, and finally skidded across the ground until it rested against a tall oak tree. A limp body hung half way out of the cock pit, but it was alive.
Frau slowly lifted his head it pained him to do so, but with his eyes finally opened, rain ran down his face into them as he looked out across a field. Not too far from where he had landed there was something like a crater in the ground, and he could only hope that Morph was okay. As he climbed out of the Type 3424 he noticed several parts of his body that ached when he moved, but that didn't stop him from walking towards the firey wreck that was left of the Type 2434. It appeared as though when it came into contact with the ground the force caused something to explode.
Feeling more drained than before as he moved amongst the debris the smell of burning oil filled the air as Frau searched everywhere for signs of his older brother, but there was nothing. No indications that he had even been there. After realizing that his search was useless he looked up at the stormy clouds that hung over his head the lightning still flashing every once in a while, but when a spotlight was seen in the distance Frau slowly backed away from the wreckage back to his own machine. The outline of the figure was unmistakable. Another LFO which automatically meant the military. Turning on his heels he scrambled into the Type 3424, and tried to start it up. With no luck he watched as the spotlight came closer to the wreck, and with one last try the machine whirred to life, "Atta' boy!"
Knowing the lights his machine were giving off would be seen by the other LFO he quickly checked his readings before moving the controls. Almost everything stll worked that was a miracle in itself. Bringing the Type 3424 to its feet was easy as Frau closed the hold. Soaked with rain water and the blood that ran down his neck was a image that he didn't want to see, but he knew he wasn't in the best of shape. There was no way though that he would let the army take him, but he didn't want to leave his brother behind. Even though he wasn't there, the machine that the older boy had cared so much for was. The rain was now a simple sprinkle as he waited for the military to get there, and just as his machines eyes glowed blue a good flash of lightning lit up the entire field.
