Chapter Eight: Award Ceremony!
"The Golden Bullet Medal is presented to only the most talented Mecha pilots…"
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen…" said Dean Warlick standing on a stage in front of thousands of people, "We gather here today to honor three special Mecha pilots, three pilots who risked their lives to protect the world of Lore and many other planets in our system. These three have defeated FIVE THOUSAND Shadowsythe Alien Pilots."
The dean cleared his throat "On this day, I, Dean Warlick of GEARS UNIVERSITY present the Golden Bullet Medal to the crew of the S.S Compass! To Navigator Jeena Chaaris… Star Ship Pilot Thomas Loveland… and Leader Brian Peacock." the crowd cheered.
"I also present the Black Dragon Medal to the team, for successfully taken out the outposts on planets Wrosh and Xi… among the list of medals, these are the ones that the team will be receiving today" said Dean Warlick
"Medals:
The Silver Gun
The Shadowslayer
The Conqueror
The Angel of Lore
And the Guardian Mech
And the Official Star Captain's Badge of Soluna City"
The crowd cheered… Dean Warlick continued his list:
"The crowd cheered as Dean Warlick handed the three each a large box filled with.
"And now to present them each with their new Star Captain Uniforms!"
Dean Warlick wheeled a coat rack to the stage. On the coat rack was three blue and gold uniforms. The uniforms consisted of two parts, the Torso, and the pants. One of the uniforms was more petite and feminine.
The crowd went wild as Dean Warlick handed them each a uniform, neatly folded… Dean Warlick also gave them each a trophy (not like a championship trophy) that had a plaque on it that read…
First plaque : "Presented to Brian James Peacock, official Star Captain of Soluna City"
Second plaque : "Presented to Jeena Chaaris, official Star Captain of Soluna City"
Third plaque : "Presented to Thomas William Loveland, official Star Captain of Soluna City"
The three left the stage and Dean Warlick dismissed the crowd. Brian, Jeena, and Tom walked off the stage wearing broad smiles. They would start their first official mission next week. But little did they all know that King Shadow was making his move towards the planet Lazuli, the rise of the Shadowsythe threat is about to begin…
