CHAPTER 4
"Miss Orihime, you wanted to speak with me?" Copper asked, he was inside the young commanders office.
"Yes Copper," Ori said, she sat at her desk, and motioned for him to sit opposite of her, "I have come to understand that Ryuji has been causing trouble on your missions."
"Yes, I believe he is gaining more and more control."
Ori nodded, "I know, that is why I have decided," she paused, and pulled out a small chain, along with an object, the same object that Zack removed from his pocket earlier that same day, from a locked drawer on her desk, "That whenever I send you on a mission, you are to have this around your neck at all times. I need not explain why. After the missions, it is to be returned to me."
"Yes ma'am." Copper grinned, thinking, 'that idiot Ryuji won't be able to stop me from my fun anymore...'
Ori handed him the necklace, "For your next mission you will go alone. I have read up on a very unique Zoid, I want you to eliminate the pilot, and bring it back to me... understood?"
Copper nodded, his crimson eyes showing his excitement, "What zoid shall it be and where may I find it commander?"
Ori sighed, she hated this, "The Zoid will be the Temjin X...."
*********************
"Bring me my check." Goji was sitting in a small cafe near the heart of the city. It was 8pm, and he had just finished his meal.
Just then two people who he had never seen before entered the cafe. They both had silver hair and eyes. One was a young man, older then Goji, but not by much. The other was a young girl, she had bandages around her head.
The two strangers took a seat near Goji, then began to have a privet conversation, talking just above a whisper. All the reason for him to listen in while he waited for his bill.
"Why do you think those people attacked us Cloud?" The girl said.
"Im not to sure Rain." He answered, "and today they attacked the Blitz team."
"Either they are really powerful, or really stupid," Rain said, "I mean, common, we're talking about the legendary Blitz team here."
"We already know they are really powerful, " Cloud said, pointing to the bandages around Rains head, "remember, they took out us and the Fireblazers."
"Yeah, that's true... apparently they did almost get away with the Ligar 0 and the Shadowfox"
Just then the waitress came up with Gojis check. He paid, then got up to leave, only hearing one last part of the two's conversation.
"I want to know why they ran way," Cloud said, "especially since they we're winning."
*****************
Goji was traveling through the desert, it was only an hour since he heard the two's conversation. He was thinking about what they had said. He was so deep in thought that he didn't notice the Zoid coming up behind him on his radar. Before he knew it, he was under a barrage of fire.
Goji cursed at himself under his breath, and turned to face whoever was firing at him. He dodged another barrage of bullets, then charged toward his opponent, which he soon recognized as a well armed GunGyarados.
The Temjin X was extremely quick, and had a very unique weapon. It was a sword with a built in gun, which was very strong. Carefully dodging the GunGyarados, Goji aimed to bring the sword down at full force. He never hit the target, because it took of into the air.
Goji knew that he was in trouble.
******************
Rain and Cloud where headed home, when they noticed two battling zoids on radar. They didn't notice a judge around anywhere, so they decided to check the fight out.
Once they got there, they where amazed at what they saw. A humanoid type zoid was up against none other than the GunGyarados, and the humanoid zoid was loosing.
"We have to help him." Rain said on a privet com-link, Clouds face appeared on a small screen in front of her. She landed Ryuu next to the Blade Ligar, "Common Cloud."
Cloud answered, "It's gonna be harder than before, we left LightStrike at the base, remember? Not to mention, your still hurt. If you get hit hard enough, your cut will open back up."
Rain nodded, "Yeah, but we can't just sit here. Im going."
Rain took off into the air, and toward the battle. Cloud followed on ground with the Blade Ligar.
"Looks like we have some guests..." A voice came from the GunGyarados, it was cruel and cold, "That's ok.... the more the merrier."
Goji looked over to his right, and watched as the Blade Ligar approached. Suddenly a screen appeared with a young mans face on it. It was the same man from the Cafe... Cloud.
"Are you ok?" he asked.
Goji didn't answer, he only nodded. He turned his attention back to where the GunGyarados was, and watched as another airborne zoid began his attack. It was pitch black, and shaped like a dragon.
Ryuu charged strait at the GunGyarados, its blades gleaming in the sunlight. It began to fire out of a small pair of twin vulcan's but to seemingly no effect. The GunGyarados turned, and rushed at the dragon, at a seemingly impossible speed. Just as Ryuu was about to hit, the GunGyarados dodged, and began to fire at Rain.
Rain maneuvered out of the shot, and elevated. To her surprise, the GunGyarados didn't follow, but dropped, landing on a small cliff.
"Now," Cam a cold voice over everyone's com-links, "You will die. I have a mission to complete after all."
Cloud and Goji began to charge at full speed, as a small fan on the back of the opposing zoid began to spin. It opened its mouth, aiming strait at the Blade Ligar.
"Cloud get out of there!" Rain yelled, "He's got a charged particle cannon, remember!"
The bright light over came all of them. Goji pushed his zoid toward the Blade Ligar, knocking it out of the beams line of fire just in time. The light dimmed, and he looked around. The ground was charred, and the was now a large hole where the Blade Ligar was previously standing.
"Thanks." Cloud said, moving his zoid up on his feet. Just then Ryuu came into view, ramming the GunGyarados in the side, and causing it to topple over. The force caused Ryuu to skid into the ground, causing its battle system to freeze.
"Damn you!" Copper hissed, "You will be the first to die." He began to charge another particle beam, aiming at the dragon.
"Rain, get out of there!" Cloud yelled, the blade Ligar began its run toward the opposing zoid. Goji and the Temjin X right at its heals.
Rain pushed her zoid unsteadily to its feet, and tried to run. Ryuu collapsed as sparks began to fly out of its left hind legs joint. "No! Cloud I can't move fast enough!"
Copper sneered, beginning to taunt, "Time to die, time to die, the dragons lost its wings and can no longer fly..." the energy began to form in the GunGyarados' mouth. Suddenly Orihimes face appeared on a screen in front of copper.
"Copper!" Ori yelled, the screen began to flicker, and various battles could be heard in the background, "Return immediately. The ZBC has found us. Forget the mission!"
"NO!" Copper yelled angrily, his crimson eyes flashing with annoyance.
"Copper! Now, return to base! You can finish them off later!"
Copper cursed, "Im coming back for you! Im going to kill you all!"
The Gun GunGyarados took off into the air, and flew away, leaving the three alone in the middle of the now dark desert.
"What the hell!" Cloud yelled, bringing the Blade Ligar next to the Ryuu. Rain climbed out of the cockpit, and watched as the Ligar knelt, bringing its head down, and opening the cockpit. Cloud jumped out, and walked over to his little sister, "Are you aright?"
"Yeah. Though Ryuu's been better."
The Temjin X knelt and the cockpit opened. Goji stepped onto the zoids hand, and waited for it to carry him to the ground. He walked over to Cloud and Rain, and asked, "You've fought him before?"
"Yeah, " Rain answered.
"Except last time, he had a partner with him, and together they took out us and the Fireblazers team." Cloud added, "But they ran away just like he did this time... and the time they attacked the Blitz team."
"Yeah... I kind of heard your conversation in the restaurant." Goji said, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop."
"That's ok... It doesn't matter anyway." Rain said, "Your zoid is very unique... I've never seen a human shaped zoid before."
"I built it myself. It's called the Temjin X" Goji said calmly. He looked at his watch, "Its about midnight. Im going home. Thanks for your help... I do wish I knew why he ran away."
Rain nodded, "That doesn't matter either." She paused, "its all to weird. But I feel like fate will make us meet again."
Both Cloud and Goji nodded. Goji turned and climbed back onto his zoids hand and climbed into the cockpit. He took off in the opposite direction.
"That guy's awfully strange." Cloud said, "He kind of creeps me out... he seemed so emotionless when he talked."
Rain nodded, "Lets just go home... Im tiered.
***********************
Meanwhile the hover cargo moved through the dunes, slow and steady, as the members of the Blitz team slept soundly inside. All except Jemie. He was busy in the main room, thinking up a new strategy.
Bit was asleep on the couch. He turned, a bit to far, and fell off, face first onto the floor. He yelped im pain, and rubbed his face.
"Bit?" Jemie asked, barely able to keep himself from laughing, for Bit now had a rather large red mark on his face. "are you aright?"
"Man that hurt..." Bit said, "I fell asleep out here? Man I don't even remember lying down."
"That's because you didn't." Jemie answered, turning back to his computer screen, "Leena caught you after you stole her cookies. She hit you pretty hard with that chair, you probably have a bump... you where out cold."
Bit rubbed the back of his head... yeah he had a bump, a rather big one. "Im goin to bed... g'night Jemie."
"Yeah." Jemie said, "night Bit."
Bit fell asleep as the hover cargo moved slowly on... drawing ever closer to the fate that awaited the Blitz team...
**********************
Rain tossed and turned in her sleep, LightStrike raising his head slightly to watch her. In her dream she saw a man, he was shadowed and she couldn't see his face. She only saw his crimson eyes... and a small chain around his neck, attached to it was an object... it was part covered in glass, bright red glass, and a small bit of wires and metal behind it.
Rains eyes shot open and she sat up. LightStrike looked up in worry, and surprise. It growled gently.
"Im ok." Rain assured him, "It was just a dream... don't worry ok?"
LightStrike growled, his silver eyes shining in the darkness. Rain climbed out of bed, and walked into the hallway. She entered the main room, and looked through the glass wall into the cargo hold, staring at Ryuu.
"LightStrike.." Rain said, she noticed the organoid had followed her, "Remember that dragon Zoid that attacked us before? The one that looked like Ryuu?"
LightStrike came up next to her. He was a good 2 1/2 maybe 3 feet taller than she was. She looked at him, and continued, "I got a really weird feeling when I saw it... like I knew it from somewhere before... I didn't tell Cloud that though, because I didn't want him to worry."
The black organoid growled, and turned its silver eyes on the Zoids below him. Rain turned and began to leave, "I'm going to go back to bed."
Rain turned to leave as LightStrike followed her. She climbed into bed and fell asleep instantly, with the ever watchful eyes of LightStrike watching her.
End of chapter 4
