I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO ZOIDS
THIS STORY IS A FANFIC CREATED WITH
NO THOUGHT OF BENEFIT TO MYSELF
ENJOY!
As the building crumbled to the ground the dust rose and hung in the air, suspended by a strong magnetic power.
The Gogu Dragon planted its feet and stiffened its body; Genosaur style. Jhese, it's time. Static electricity raced across the zoid as it raced to build a charge to counter the cannon.
Shads reared up on his hind legs, thrusting both front paws forwards. The charge raced to the metal talons where it was met by Shads' own electro talon electricity, the two energies met and accelerated; arcing towards the cannon at the same moment the charged particle cannon fired.
……………..
Kat stirred in her zoid, cracking open her eyes as the brilliant light washed over her canopy, her head ached; it ached even more when she thought about the fate of her 'Siax.
She pressed her face against the glass and peered out. The bright lights made it difficult to see but she finally made out Jhese's zoid Shads holding back the blast with his own energy wave, valiant, but still losing.
A shadow fell over Kat's zoid and once again her eyes were forced to adjust to see through the glass.
A white zoid stood behind Jhese, so familiar that Kat gasped.
………………
Jhese screamed as the blast pushed back Shads' electric attack "We gotta push harder Shads! We won't be the only ones who get blown up! Let me help!"
No! it is too dangerous!
Images of his team flashed through the young boys head; Cyrus, tall and goofy, and his Redler that Jhese had rebuilt with a Raynos power plant. David and his Command Wolf, the pair was as close as Jhese and Shads, words or no words. Jhese also thought of Kat and her Lightning Siax, who had only just returned to Jhese's life; only to be torn away now. Finally Jhese thought of Commander Hunt and all the soldiers whose zoids lay strewn about the ruins.
He couldn't let them all die. "Shad's I have to help!"
... I won't do it…
"Shads!?"
No.
"SHADS!!!"
Jhese felt as though he had run a marathon and slumped weakly against the controls.
The two blasts now held even, but Shads energies were still flagging. They couldn't hold out much longer.
A second blast of energy collided with the cannon's blast, pushing it back with such awesome power that Jhese could feel it through Shads' frame, the vibrations reverberating through the Gogu Dragon.
Jhese had to use all his energy to turn and attempt a look at his savior, but the bright lights were blinding and his eyes couldn't penetrate.
The cannon kept up its barrage but under the combined might of a flagging Shads and the powerful newcomer its energies were pushed back and the weapon obliterated in a flash that knocked Jhese out.
……………..
"Jhese?" a voice from nearby woke Jhese.
"Jhese?" the voice repeated.
Jhese's eyes flickered and everyone crowded closer to check on the young pilot.
"Okay guys, step back. You're taking his oxygen" an unfamiliar voice ordered, Jhese felt the presences move away. He tried to open his eyes again but the light sent needles through his skull and he squeezed them shut.
"He's coming to" Kat's voice was full of concern and Jhese made another attempt at opening his eyes. He looked into a vaguely familiar face that he couldn't place, but that probably meant a Doctor.
His confusion must have shown and the person held up his hand before asking "how many fingers am I holding up?"
"He wouldn't know that anyh-OW!" Cyrus's humor was accentuated by the sound of a rather solid thump and followed by Kat's semi outraged voice "Shut up Cyrus. He might be hurt"
Jhese smiled weakly and tried to sit up, his head swam but didn't hurt and he looked about; Cyrus stood back rubbing his shoulder, beside him Kat beamed, David stood on the other side, next to his mother, both were still looking concerned. Many of the Z.B.C. soldiers lay about the ruins receiving attention from the gathered townspeople who bustled about rendering assistance and first aid.
Jhese looked back at the person who had been looking after him thinking he was one of the townspeople, but his gaze landed instead on the white zoid, his gaze snapped back to the pilot as it clicked.
The pilot was of medium height and looked about eighteen or younger, he had dark hair and eyes, a round face and a gangly body that suggested a recent growth spurt. His clothes were road stained but well looked after and he bore the Z.B.C. logo just like Commander Hunt.
"Vega…Obscura?"
"Heh; didn't take you long did it?" Vega grinned and looked younger still.
"Since when did you work for the Z.B.C.? Aren't you Back-draft?" a slight shadow crossed the pilot's face as he frowned.
"Well, it's a long story…" he looked at Jhese and at the expression the boy wore "I guess I could give you some details…"
Oh, right...
Soon I'll be sending Jhese into class S...what am I saying? FINALLY I'll be puting the Crew into class S. And it would be great if you guys would send in suggestions for a title, just remember it will be a NEW STORY and the title is gonna help you guys find it. I still have several chapters left of this story so I'll keep y'all posted on what's going on and the final title. Be creative or be a smartass, your choice. I'll take 'em all into account.
