Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Void of the Heart. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own HI3D, miHoYO and a few others do.
(Earth, Corlas Field 3:10 PM, Sunday, 2320.)
Sirin easily threw one of the Zima soldiers back before seeing a tidal wave slowly drag down a Destroyer.
Sirin guessed that Albern was slowly starting to master his powers. She was knocked back by one of Sergey's knights which was wearing red and black armor.
"Sirin, I think I'm getting the hang of these powers… Least the best I can without them trying to mulch me… But I don't know how much longer I can handle this… I'm already feeling pain in my head and chest." Albern stated mentally, Sirin blasted a wave of flames from her right hand which scorched over a dozen Zima soldiers.
"Benares, have you finished off their aerial forces? The Zima troops are still holding and neither our side nor there's have gained an advantage… Albern, do the Humans usually have a general or commander commanding the Zima? One besides Bronya?" Sirin asked, she needed to be more tactical, she was more then just power, she was a warrior, she was a queen… She had led soldiers before, she would lead them here.
"I don't know what Zima Generals look like, but you're know a Human General when you see them, their uniforms give it away, their usually off the battlefield in a bunker or something… Ok, I'm going to have to back off sooner or later… I'm going to be sick and these powers aren't easy to use… One of you target the battleship and then we're have to back off… Sorry, Sirin, I didn't expect my powers to put so much of a strain on my body…." Albern said and Sirin watched a series of explosions rip across the battleship, one of which caused a massive explosion which ripped the ship in half.
"Your majesty, Lord Albern just collapsed…. And the Human fleet have started to pull back… Not much though, we're continue to hold the area here…" She mentally heard from one of her beasts.
"I…." Sirin started to say and then she leapt back and floated into the air.
"Continue to protect him until you can pull back and bombard as much as the fleet as you can… Benares, attack their fleet, lay waste to it, the Humans aren't going to be forced back without damage to the fleet… All ground units, continue your attack… I'm going to find their general… Benares, you're in charge until I return." Sirin ordered, she knew her troops would handle themselves.
She could kill as many Zima Soldiers as she wanted, but if the enemy General was allowed to escape, it would just cause much more problems.
She had to kill their General, she knew the Republic would question why she had departed the battle. She would tell them that she had destroyed their General.
She flew off into the distance, the General wouldn't be far, she guessed he was on one of the Human warships.
"Hang on, Albern… I'm going to strike their fleet and win this battle…" Sirin said and rushed for the remaining battleship, that had to be where the Human General was.
"My queen, why are you heading for the Human Ships, I thought we were going to destroy all of them." Benares asked mentally as Sirin slammed into one of the turrets on the battleship.
The turret was sent crushed into the battleship's hull while she looked up.
"Sink as many of the ships besides the one I'm on as you can… If I don't respond in 20 minutes, blast the ship after I teleport back to the battle… We need to kill the human commander and cripple their fleet so we can continue with the plan to take the fight to Bronya." Sirin ordered before she felt more blasts wash over her and winced at the impacts.
She responded by using her telekinesis to tilt the ship, sending the soldiers screaming into the cold, dark ocean.
She floated toward one of the doors before wrenching the door from its hinges with her bare hands.
"How is Albern?" She mentally asked one of the Ballista class beasts which she knew was still around Albern.
"In pain, but alive, we're try to bring him off the battlefield after we finish dealing with the Humans… Sergey didn't deploy as many of his personal troops as we expected, your highness."
"He's going to keep his best soldiers in reserve… Like any good commander, soldier… Don't kill any of the Republic soldiers… Their still on our side and will remain on our side till I say they aren't." Sirin ordered, she continued to head through the ship.
The faster she killed or captured their general, the faster the battle would be over and she could plan her next move and attend to Albern.
She wanted to know how he was adjusting to his powers. She needed to end the battle first.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I want to say I'm sorry the chapter is short. Next chapter will be longer. I also want to state I'm updating the Yae story soon and adding a story about either Seele, Cecilla or Fuuka from the show. Next chapter will be on next Saturday or so and will show Sirin confronting the general and the end of the battle. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
