Authors note: Hehe, yeah, the Blitz, FireBlazers and Sky Raiders teams all

chapter yet, because of the fight scene. Im not saying any more, so just
go read the chapter!
CHAPTER 5
"LightStrike, would you go wake up Rain? Breakfast is ready." Cloud said, while placing two plates on the table, "Do whatever it takes, you know how she is in the mornings."
LightStrike made his way down the hallway and into Rains room. He jumped onto the foot of the bed and began to growl softly.
"Go away. Im asleep."
LightStrike began to growl louder, and for it, he soon received a pillow thrown at his face, "I said I was asleep."
The organoid jumped off of the bed, and grabbed the back of Rains shirt in his mouth. He pulled her out of bed, and literally began to carry her down the hallway by the back of her shirt, just like a person can carry a cat by the skin on the back of its neck.
"Let me go!" Rain protested, "I get it ok... Im up.... I can walk, just put me down!"
Cloud looked down the hallway to see what all the yelling was about. He began to laugh out loud at the sight. Rain looked incredibly bad; her long silver hair was a mess, and she looked extremely angry and tired at the same time. Not to mention, she was hanging by the back of her shirt from LightStrikes mouth.
LightStrike carried her all the way to the kitchen, and dropped her in a seat. She glared at him, then at Cloud, who, of course, was still laughing, "You told him to do that!" She said.
"No I didn't, I just told him to do whatever it takes."
Rain sighed, "I wish he could do that to you." She smiled, "I bet it looked really funny huh?"
Cloud grinned, and nodded, then began to eat. Rain doing the same.
***************************
"Bit pass the salt..." Brad said, taking a sip of his coffee.
Bit yawned, "Yeah, sure..." he handed handed him the salt as Jemie brought him another plate of eggs. The entire team was sitting down to breakfast (for once), some more tired than others. It was only 8:30 after all, and most of them slept in till at least 10. Unfortunately, the good doctor had decided to begin building his new model early that day, and upon accidentally breaking it, he let out a scream that could wake a small city.
"Dad." Leena said, "next time you decide to play with your models at eight in the morning, I swear I'll throw them all out the window."
Doctor Tauros wasn't paying any attention, he was to busy sitting at the end of the table playing with his new DeathSoarar and Blade Ligar models. He was apparently reenacting the legendary battle between Van Flyheight and the monstrous Prozen.
"Whatever." Leena said, suddenly noticing Bit trying to steal her plate of food. She stabbed his hand with her fork.
"Oww!" Bit yelled, "Hey what was that for!?"
"Eat your own food Bit Cloud!" Leena yelled.
"I was!"
"That's why my plate was in your hands!"
Jemie was rummaging through the cabnit when he suddenly said, "Hey, last night there was a box of donuts up here...."
"Jemie!" Bit yelled, then upon seeing Leena's face, "Uh oh..."
"Those where mine!" She yelled, jumping up to strangle the blond pilot, "Your dead this time Bit!"
Bit jumped out of his seat and began to run around the room with Leena following him. He leapt onto the table, just as Leena threw a plate at him. He dodged... but unfortunately, something else was hit.
"NOOOOOO!" Doc yelled, picking up his now broken Deathsoarer, "That was my hardest model... it took so long.."
The team all looked at the man... he was on the verge of tears. All over a broken model.
"Ummm, Sorry dad!" Leena yelled, quickly leaving the room. The others all followed, quickly and quietly.
"Sorry dad..." Tauros mimicked tears in his eyes, "Well see how sorry she is when her pay is reduced... the others too!"
He walked into the main room just as the phone vid-phone began to ring. As he picked it up, the image of Leon appeared on the screen.
"Hi dad!" Leon said cheerfully.
"Hi..." Tauros sniffed, "What do you want Leon?"
"Hey, did Bit and Leena break another one of your models?" Leon asked, "you seem like your in a bad mood."
Tauros nodded as Leon continued, "Well, anyway, me and Naomi were thinking of visiting today. Could you meet us at these coordinates?"
A set of coordinates appeared on the screen, very near to where the hover cargo was now.
"Sure Leon....Hey!" Tauros yelled, "What do you mean 'another one of my models?!' they broke another one!? NOOO" With that he ran off, only pausing to enter the coordinates into the hover cargo's computer.
"Man your dad is very strange....." Naomi said, just as the screen flickered blank.
***************************
"Zero, and Copper. You have another mission." Ori told her two top pilots, "Well, actually its more like finishing a mission."
She sat, motioning for them to do the same. Since there base had been discovered, they had decided to use a WhaleKing from now on.
"Which mission?" Zack asked.
"The Blitz team. I want the Ligar 0 and ShadowFox. You will leave the Raynos and Gunsniper, they are of no importance. Also, I want you to do me a favor this time..."
"What favor?" Copper said, he was already wearing the necklace, and was eager to get on with the mission.
"Leave the Raynos pilot alone. His name is Jemie." Ori answered, moving a bang of her long lavender hair from out of her eyes, "Destroy his zoid, and do what you want with the others, but let him live." Copper sneered evilly, sending a chill down Zacks spine. "Now go. Remember, I want the ShadowFox and Ligar 0 in tacked!"
"Yes Ma'am" Both the pilots answered, leaving the room. Ori sighed, and leaned back in her chair, her hair touching the floor, she thought, 'sorry Jemie.'
*************************
"Man that was good Cloud, thanks." Rain said after finishing her breakfast, "Hey do you mind if we go to town. I've been thinking, " She sighed, "Ryuu doesn't have many good weapons besides the Blades. I saw a weapon in an add that I want to check out."
Cloud nodded, "Sure, especially with everything that's going on and all. So, what kind of weapon is it?"
"Well, its not exactly long ranged, but it would help, and its better than the blades." Rain answered, "Its a newly developed weapon, just made legal by the ZBC."
"So what is it?"
"Its called the ECF shot. Its a canon with a shell that is electro- charged, and when it hits, explodes, creating a small field of electricity around the target. It has a 40% chance of a complete system freeze. If not, it still severely damages the target." She sighed, "Though it's a difficult weapon to use, because it can also effect any other zoid within range. It's also hard to aim."
Cloud nodded, "Sounds good, but how big is it? Ryuu's structure isn't made for large weaponry, it's made for speed."
"Its not big at all. It's small enough to fit in the mouth of Ryuu, like a charged particle canon. Heck I'd get one of those if I could afford it."
"Yeah... Aright, lets get going then." he turned to LightStrike, "Common, your comin too."
LightStrike roared as they made their way to the cargo hold. Cloud left first, followed in the air by Rain. Together they made their way through the desert sands, with the small organoid running at there side.
Suddenly something began to beep on Rains Radar, strait ahead. "Cloud I got 6 zoids on radar, and a transported right in front of us, about 4 miles."
"Yeah I see it," Cloud said, pushing his Blade Ligar to pick up speed. The two continued on, and quite soon they could see the six zoids."
"Cloud its them! That's the Gungyarados and the dragon zoid!" Rain said, her face appearing on a screen in front of him.
"Yeah, and look who it is that they are fighting." he answered, "The Blitz team."
Suddenly Coppers voice came onto the com link, "Look its the dragon! Good, now I'll get to finish what I started before!"
The GunGyarados suddenly took off into the air after Rain. She elevated, avoiding its shots. The two began to battle both climbing higher and higher.
"Who are you!" Bit yelled at Cloud, who had made his way to where the Ligar 0 was.
"No time for introductions." Cloud said, "These guy's are dangerous."
"We noticed!" Bit yelled, charging with his Strike Lazer Claw at the Bahamut. Leena and the Gunsniper took off to where the GunGyarados was, followed by Jemie and the Raynos. As it stood, it was now Cloud, Bit and Brad against the Bahamut, and Leena, Jemie and Rain against the Gungyarados.
Jemie and Rain where having a hard time actually getting close enough to attack the GunGyarados. The monstrous zoid lunged at Jemie, sending him into a dive, and causing him to break the sound barrier. He was only meters above the ground when he pulled up, calling, "Ok now your messing with the Wild Eagle!"
"I don't care who you are! Your going to die!" Copper said, diving at the Gunsniper, "Right after I take out your friend here!"
"Leena watch it!" The Wild Eagle yelled, "He's coming after you!"
"Oh is he!" The red head called, letting loose a barrage of missiles and shots, "Well then he's gonna have a taste of my Total weasel Unit assault!"
The GunGyarados flew strait into the line of bullets. "Yeah! Got him!" Leena yelled.
Suddenly out of the smoke erupted the GunGyarados seemingly unscathed, as it continued its charge at the GunSniper.
"No!" Leena yelled as she was completely over taken. The next thing she knew was her flashing computer screen, Combat system Frozen.
"Leena!" The Wild Eagle called, diving strait for the GunGyarados.
"Your next Wild Eagle!" Copper yelled, as he landed and faced the approaching zoid. Its mouth opened and energy began to form inside as the small fan on its back began to spin.
"Watch it!" Rain yelled, "It's a charged particle cannon!"
"What!?" The Wild Eagle yelled, yanking up on his controls, to late. The beam disintegrated the Raynos' wing, sending it into a spin. It collided with the ground, knocking the Wild Eagle, and Jemie, completely unconscious.
Meanwhile Bit, Brad, and Cloud had their hands full with the Bahamut. All three of them tried the Strike Laser Claw, and only Bit found his mark, only slightly damaging the Bahamuts leg. It took off into the air, leaving them completely helpless against its attacks.
Rain suddenly spied three upcoming zoids on radar, not caring who they were, she opened a com-link, "Whoever you are, please, we need help."
"Rain?!?" Came a familiar voice.
"Izumi?" Rain asked, "Its them again!"
"We're on our way." Izumi said, "Who are the other zoids on radar?"
"The Blitz team... " Rain dodged a charge particle beam, "Hurry!"
The ShadowDancer took off into a run, followed at a slower pace by the MadThunder. The Stormsworder flew ahead, joining Rain.
Cloud saw the Fireblazers approach, "What are you doin here?!"
Lavender laughed, "We were on our way to a battle. But this one seems more important!"
The MadThunder aimed its canons at the Bahamut, and fired, as Izumi and the ShadowDancer took off into the air. All the warriors were now so busy fighting that they didn't notice two more zoids approach on radar.
"Are we late?" Came a voice to everyone's com-link.
"Leon!" Bit yelled, "Man, you sure picked the right time to show up!"
"So, which ones are the bad Guys?" Naomi asked, looking for a good place to snipe from.
"The GunGyarados and the Dragon Zoid that's fighting us. Not the one fighting the GunGyarados." Brad answered.
Naomi found a small cliff only a small distance away and took off toward it. She jumped onto it, and began to take aim at the GunGyarados, which was now beginning to charge another shot with the charged particle cannon. The Bahamut noticed and fired a laser at the Gunsniper, knocking it off its mark, and causing Naomi to miss.
Leon and Cloud began to charge at the GunGyarados, both Blade Ligars running side by side. Copper smiled cruelly to himself, "Now, for the two Blade Ligars,"
Copper aimed at the two approaching Ligars, and fired. Leon and Cloud pulled off in opposite directions, both managing to dodge the beam. Unfortunately, it was still headed in the direction of the hover cargo. It raised it shields just before impact, causing a massive explosion. The Hover cargo emerged from the smoke, and doctor Tauros appeared on the com- link. "Everyone, the shields won't hold if the hover cargo is attacked like that again. Find a way to disarm that charged particle canon!"
Copper turned his GunGyarados around and headed toward the Madthunder. Lavender was out before she even knew what hit her. The MadThunder was over taken from above, almost literally crushed, by the GunGyarados.
Copper backed off a bit, and began to take aim at the cockpit of the MadThunder, it began to charge another charged particle beam. Copper was so intent of finishing Lavender off that he didn't notice Ryuu and the Stormsworder preparing an attack from above.
Rain and Tyra both went into a dive, reaching unbelievable speeds. Rain maneuvered herself behind the Gungyarados, and pulled up just before hitting the ground. The blade on the tip of Ryuu's wing jerked upwards, and caught on the monstrous zoids back. The blade shattered, a large piece of it now jammed in the charged particle intake fan. Copper let out a yell of rage and lunged at Rain, as she took back off into the air.
"Yeah!" Tyra called, pulling out of her dive, and landing next to the MadThunder, "Common Lavender get in!"
Lavender scrambled out of her zoid and into the cockpit of the StormSworder. It took off into the air after Rain and the GunGyarados.
"I've got to finish this." Zack said, maneuvering out of a barrage of shots made by the madthunder. The Bahamut lunged, turning upside in mid flight, arranging itself so it was just below the ShadowDancer.
"No!" Izumi yelled, she tried to pull up on her controls but she wasn't quick enough. The Bahamut fired its shock canon at the stomach of the ShadowDancer, causing it to fall. It hit the ground hard, causing a complete system freeze, "Damn it!" Izumi yelled, trying to get her zoid ot move, but to no avail.
The bahamut then turned in the direction of Naomi and her Gunsniper. Zero flew strait into her, knocking her off the cliff. He landed next to her as the claws on the Bahamut began to glow, he brought them down on her, "Neo Laser Claw!"
"Uh, Tyra, we got a problem..." Rain said, "Take a close look at the blade I jammed in the GunGyarados..."
Tyra brought up a screen and zoomed in on the back of the GunGyarados, "Its gonna break!"
"Yeah..." Just then the blade shattered, and the fan began to spin quickly. Copper landed, taking aim at Ryuu, then at the last second, pulled back, aiming quickly at the Blade Ligar and Cloud. The beam fired, and was headed strait for him.
"Cloud!" Rain yelled, diving toward the Blade Ligar. She went into a dive toward the Blade Ligar, ramming it in its side, and knocking it out of the way of the beam. Ryuu's side collides with the ground, shattering the joint of its wing.
"Rain are you ok?!" Cloud said.
"Yeah," She answered, bringing Ryuu back on its feet, "but I can't fly anymore."
Zero elevated, and headed strait for Tyra. He caught up with her, and pulled back on his controls, so the bahamut was standing strait up mid air. The plates of armor on its chest opened, revealing a massive unit of missiles. He let loose, sending the barrage at Tyra.
The StormSworder was hit, and it fell, colliding hard with the ground. Tyra and Lavender opened their eyes to a complete system freeze.
"Damn it!" Lavender yelled, crawling out of the cockpit with Tyra. They looked at the battlefield. Only 5 of the good guys were left.
"Leon I got an idea," Bit said, Leon's face appearing on screen.
"So did I. Hurry up." Leon answered. He knew exactly what Bit wanted to do, the problem, Bit needed the Schnider to do it.
Bit raced back to the Hover Cargo, and onto the CAS platform, "Doc, I need the Schnider armor. Hurry!"
"Sure, Bit." Tauros said, punching the command into the computer, the basic 0 armor was taken off of the Ligar 0, and replaced with the orange Schnider armor.
Bit launched himself out of the Hover Cargo just as Brad distributed a Smoke Screen. Unfortunately, Zero had infrared, and pinpointed the ShadowFox out. He fired his shock canon, hitting the neck of the shadowfox, instantly causing the command system to freeze. The ShadowFox collapsed, now out of the battle.
Bit rushed to meet up with Leon, and together they charged side by side toward the GunGyarados. The Schniders blades extended outward, and began to glow, as did the Blade Ligars, as they rushed forward.
"Seven Blade Attack!" Bit yelled, he and Leon both lunged at the GunGyarados, just as copper ducked, the Ligars each hitting a separate wing. The wings were torn off, and crushed, as the two Ligars went right through them. Copper cursed as he went after the Ligar 0.
"Im out of ammo." Zack said to himself, landing a short distance away from Cloud and Rain. Ryuu and the Silver Blade Ligar began to rush toward the Bahamut, "This is great," Zack said, "I've only got one choice left."
The Bahamut stood on its hind legs and aimed itself toward the two oncoming zoids, opening its mouth. The unidentifiable canon began to glow, a bright green light, as it charged.
"Now!" Zero said, pulling the trigger. The beam fired, heading strait in between the two zoids, the force of the beam pushed them backwards as it fried the joints in both zoids legs, freezing both zoids command systems.
Just then, a large WhaleKing appeared, and Orihimes image came onto both Zack and Coppers screens, "Well done. Finish the rest of them off, and return to the WhaleKing."
The WhaleKing hovered above The ShadowDancer, releasing some extension cables, and pulling it up into its cargo hold. It then moved to the Shadowfox.
Zack was about to retreat into the Whaleking when Leon came from behind with a 7 blade attack, completely freezing the Bahamuts system, and knocking Zack out.
The GunGyarados pointed it's charged particle canon at Cloud, but was stopped suddenly when Bit came from behind, using a strike Laser Claw to crush the intake fan. Copper cursed, and retreated, heading to the WhaleKing, which was now securing cables around Ryuu.
"Rain! Get out of the Cockpit!" Cloud yelled, trying to force the Blade Ligar onto its feet, with no success, "Common! LightStrike!"
"Cloud! The cockpit won't open!" Rain yelled, desperately trying to escape from the cockpit, "Its jammed shut!"
Ryuu was hoisted into the air, with Rain trapped inside. It was pulled into the WhaleKing, and the doors to the cargo hold were shut.
The hover cargo began to open fire, sending a barrage of missiles to the WhaleKing. Ori opened a com-link with the bahamut, "Zero... Zero wake up!"
Zack opened his eyes, and looked at Orihime.
"Get out of there and return to the WhaleKing now!" Ori yelled. Zack tried to move the bahamut, but Leon and the Blade Ligar where now holding it down, and it wouldn't move.
Orihime frowned at Zero and shook her head. The whaleKing turned, and headed off into the sky, leaving Zero and the Bahamut behind.
Izumi, Brad and Rain where now in the clutches of the enemy.... and Zack was stuck with the good guys.
End of chapter 5
Authors note: hehehe. I really enjoyed writing this chapter. It was hard, but fun. From now on, the story should really begin to pick up, and maybe, just maybe, I'll have longer chapters. Hope you liked the chap! Don't forget to R+R!

CHAPTER 5
"LightStrike, would you go wake up Rain? Breakfast is ready." Cloud said, while placing two plates on the table, "Do whatever it takes, you know how she is in the mornings."
LightStrike made his way down the hallway and into Rains room. He jumped onto the foot of the bed and began to growl softly.
"Go away. Im asleep."
LightStrike began to growl louder, and for it, he soon received a pillow thrown at his face, "I said I was asleep."
The organoid jumped off of the bed, and grabbed the back of Rains shirt in his mouth. He pulled her out of bed, and literally began to carry her down the hallway by the back of her shirt, just like a person can carry a cat by the skin on the back of its neck.
"Let me go!" Rain protested, "I get it ok... Im up.... I can walk, just put me down!"
Cloud looked down the hallway to see what all the yelling was about. He began to laugh out loud at the sight. Rain looked incredibly bad; her long silver hair was a mess, and she looked extremely angry and tired at the same time. Not to mention, she was hanging by the back of her shirt from LightStrikes mouth.
LightStrike carried her all the way to the kitchen, and dropped her in a seat. She glared at him, then at Cloud, who, of course, was still laughing, "You told him to do that!" She said.
"No I didn't, I just told him to do whatever it takes."
Rain sighed, "I wish he could do that to you." She smiled, "I bet it looked really funny huh?"
Cloud grinned, and nodded, then began to eat. Rain doing the same.
***************************
"Bit pass the salt..." Brad said, taking a sip of his coffee.
Bit yawned, "Yeah, sure..." he handed handed him the salt as Jemie brought him another plate of eggs. The entire team was sitting down to breakfast (for once), some more tired than others. It was only 8:30 after all, and most of them slept in till at least 10. Unfortunately, the good doctor had decided to begin building his new model early that day, and upon accidentally breaking it, he let out a scream that could wake a small city.
"Dad." Leena said, "next time you decide to play with your models at eight in the morning, I swear I'll throw them all out the window."
Doctor Tauros wasn't paying any attention, he was to busy sitting at the end of the table playing with his new DeathSoarar and Blade Ligar models. He was apparently reenacting the legendary battle between Van Flyheight and the monstrous Prozen.
"Whatever." Leena said, suddenly noticing Bit trying to steal her plate of food. She stabbed his hand with her fork.
"Oww!" Bit yelled, "Hey what was that for!?"
"Eat your own food Bit Cloud!" Leena yelled.
"I was!"
"That's why my plate was in your hands!"
Jemie was rummaging through the cabnit when he suddenly said, "Hey, last night there was a box of donuts up here...."
"Jemie!" Bit yelled, then upon seeing Leena's face, "Uh oh..."
"Those where mine!" She yelled, jumping up to strangle the blond pilot, "Your dead this time Bit!"
Bit jumped out of his seat and began to run around the room with Leena following him. He leapt onto the table, just as Leena threw a plate at him. He dodged... but unfortunately, something else was hit.
"NOOOOOO!" Doc yelled, picking up his now broken Deathsoarer, "That was my hardest model... it took so long.."
The team all looked at the man... he was on the verge of tears. All over a broken model.
"Ummm, Sorry dad!" Leena yelled, quickly leaving the room. The others all followed, quickly and quietly.
"Sorry dad..." Tauros mimicked tears in his eyes, "Well see how sorry she is when her pay is reduced... the others too!"
He walked into the main room just as the phone vid-phone began to ring. As he picked it up, the image of Leon appeared on the screen.
"Hi dad!" Leon said cheerfully.

"Hey, did Bit and Leena break another one of your models?" Leon asked, "you seem like your in a bad mood."
Tauros nodded as Leon continued, "Well, anyway, me and Naomi were thinking of visiting today. Could you meet us at these coordinates?"
A set of coordinates appeared on the screen, very near to where the hover cargo was now.
"Sure Leon....Hey!" Tauros yelled, "What do you mean 'another one of my models?!' they broke another one!? NOOO" With that he ran off, only pausing to enter the coordinates into the hover cargo's computer.
"Man your dad is very strange....." Naomi said, just as the screen flickered blank.
***************************
"Zero, and Copper. You have another mission." Ori told her two top pilots, "Well, actually its more like finishing a mission."
She sat, motioning for them to do the same. Since there base had been discovered, they had decided to use a WhaleKing from now on.
"Which mission?" Zack asked.
"The Blitz team. I want the Ligar 0 and ShadowFox. You will leave the Raynos and Gunsniper, they are of no importance. Also, I want you to do me a favor this time..."
"What favor?" Copper said, he was already wearing the necklace, and was eager to get on with the mission.
"Leave the Raynos pilot alone. His name is Jemie." Ori answered, moving a bang of her long lavender hair from out of her eyes, "Destroy his zoid, and do what you want with the others, but let him live." Copper sneered evilly, sending a chill down Zacks spine. "Now go. Remember, I want the ShadowFox and Ligar 0 in tacked!"
"Yes Ma'am" Both the pilots answered, leaving the room. Ori sighed, and leaned back in her chair, her hair touching the floor, she thought, 'sorry Jemie.'
*************************
"Man that was good Cloud, thanks." Rain said after finishing her breakfast, "Hey do you mind if we go to town. I've been thinking, " She sighed, "Ryuu doesn't have many good weapons besides the Blades. I saw a weapon in an add that I want to check out."
Cloud nodded, "Sure, especially with everything that's going on and all. So, what kind of weapon is it?"

"Cloud its them! That's the Gungyarados and the dragon zoid!" Rain said, her face appearing on a screen in front of him.
"Yeah, and look who it is that they are fighting." he answered, "The Blitz team."
Suddenly Coppers voice came onto the com link, "Look its the dragon! Good, now I'll get to finish what I started before!"
The GunGyarados suddenly took off into the air after Rain. She elevated, avoiding its shots. The two began to battle both climbing higher and higher.
"Who are you!" Bit yelled at Cloud, who had made his way to where the Ligar 0 was.
"No time for introductions." Cloud said, "These guy's are dangerous."
"We noticed!" Bit yelled, charging with his Strike Lazer Claw at the Bahamut. Leena and the Gunsniper took off to where the GunGyarados was, followed by Jemie and the Raynos. As it stood, it was now Cloud, Bit and Brad against the Bahamut, and Leena, Jemie and Rain against the Gungyarados.
Jemie and Rain where having a hard time actually getting close enough to attack the GunGyarados. The monstrous zoid lunged at Jemie, sending him into a dive, and causing him to break the sound barrier. He was only meters above the ground when he pulled up, calling, "Ok now your messing with the Wild Eagle!"
"I don't care who you are! Your going to die!" Copper said, diving at the Gunsniper, "Right after I take out your friend here!"
"Leena watch it!" The Wild Eagle yelled, "He's coming after you!"
"Oh is he!" The red head called, letting loose a barrage of missiles and shots, "Well then he's gonna have a taste of my Total weasel Unit assault!"
The GunGyarados flew strait into the line of bullets. "Yeah! Got him!" Leena yelled.
Suddenly out of the smoke erupted the GunGyarados seemingly unscathed, as it continued its charge at the GunSniper.
"No!" Leena yelled as she was completely over taken. The next thing she knew was her flashing computer screen, Combat system Frozen.
"Leena!" The Wild Eagle called, diving strait for the GunGyarados.
"Your next Wild Eagle!" Copper yelled, as he landed and faced the approaching zoid. Its mouth opened and energy began to form inside as the small fan on its back began to spin.
"Watch it!" Rain yelled, "It's a charged particle cannon!"
"What!?" The Wild Eagle yelled, yanking up on his controls, to late. The beam disintegrated the Raynos' wing, sending it into a spin. It collided with the ground, knocking the Wild Eagle, and Jemie, completely unconscious.
Meanwhile Bit, Brad, and Cloud had their hands full with the Bahamut. All three of them tried the Strike Laser Claw, and only Bit found his mark, only slightly damaging the Bahamuts leg. It took off into the air, leaving them completely helpless against its attacks.
Rain suddenly spied three upcoming zoids on radar, not caring who they were, she opened a com-link, "Whoever you are, please, we need help."
"Rain?!?" Came a familiar voice.
"Izumi?" Rain asked, "Its them again!"
"We're on our way." Izumi said, "Who are the other zoids on radar?"
"The Blitz team... " Rain dodged a charge particle beam, "Hurry!"
The ShadowDancer took off into a run, followed at a slower pace by the MadThunder. The Stormsworder flew ahead, joining Rain.
Cloud saw the Fireblazers approach, "What are you doin here?!"
Lavender laughed, "We were on our way to a battle. But this one seems more important!"
The MadThunder aimed its canons at the Bahamut, and fired, as Izumi and the ShadowDancer took off into the air. All the warriors were now so busy fighting that they didn't notice two more zoids approach on radar.
"Are we late?" Came a voice to everyone's com-link.
"Leon!" Bit yelled, "Man, you sure picked the right time to show up!"
"So, which ones are the bad Guys?" Naomi asked, looking for a good place to snipe from.
"The GunGyarados and the Dragon Zoid that's fighting us. Not the one fighting the GunGyarados." Brad answered.
Naomi found a small cliff only a small distance away and took off toward it. She jumped onto it, and began to take aim at the GunGyarados, which was now beginning to charge another shot with the charged particle cannon. The Bahamut noticed and fired a laser at the Gunsniper, knocking it off its mark, and causing Naomi to miss.
Leon and Cloud began to charge at the GunGyarados, both Blade Ligars running side by side. Copper smiled cruelly to himself, "Now, for the two Blade Ligars,"
Copper aimed at the two approaching Ligars, and fired. Leon and Cloud pulled off in opposite directions, both managing to dodge the beam. Unfortunately, it was still headed in the direction of the hover cargo. It raised it shields just before impact, causing a massive explosion. The Hover cargo emerged from the smoke, and doctor Tauros appeared on the com- link. "Everyone, the shields won't hold if the hover cargo is attacked like that again. Find a way to disarm that charged particle canon!"
Copper turned his GunGyarados around and headed toward the Madthunder. Lavender was out before she even knew what hit her. The MadThunder was over taken from above, almost literally crushed, by the GunGyarados.
Copper backed off a bit, and began to take aim at the cockpit of the MadThunder, it began to charge another charged particle beam. Copper was so intent of finishing Lavender off that he didn't notice Ryuu and the Stormsworder preparing an attack from above.
Rain and Tyra both went into a dive, reaching unbelievable speeds. Rain maneuvered herself behind the Gungyarados, and pulled up just before hitting the ground. The blade on the tip of Ryuu's wing jerked upwards, and caught on the monstrous zoids back. The blade shattered, a large piece of it now jammed in the charged particle intake fan. Copper let out a yell of rage and lunged at Rain, as she took back off into the air.
"Yeah!" Tyra called, pulling out of her dive, and landing next to the MadThunder, "Common Lavender get in!"
Lavender scrambled out of her zoid and into the cockpit of the StormSworder. It took off into the air after Rain and the GunGyarados.
"I've got to finish this." Zack said, maneuvering out of a barrage of shots made by the madthunder. The Bahamut lunged, turning upside in mid flight, arranging itself so it was just below the ShadowDancer.
"No!" Izumi yelled, she tried to pull up on her controls but she wasn't quick enough. The Bahamut fired its shock canon at the stomach of the ShadowDancer, causing it to fall. It hit the ground hard, causing a complete system freeze, "Damn it!" Izumi yelled, trying to get her zoid ot move, but to no avail.
The bahamut then turned in the direction of Naomi and her Gunsniper. Zero flew strait into her, knocking her off the cliff. He landed next to her as the claws on the Bahamut began to glow, he brought them down on her, "Neo Laser Claw!"
"Uh, Tyra, we got a problem..." Rain said, "Take a close look at the blade I jammed in the GunGyarados..."
Tyra brought up a screen and zoomed in on the back of the GunGyarados, "Its gonna break!"
"Yeah..." Just then the blade shattered, and the fan began to spin quickly. Copper landed, taking aim at Ryuu, then at the last second, pulled back, aiming quickly at the Blade Ligar and Cloud. The beam fired, and was headed strait for him.
"Cloud!" Rain yelled, diving toward the Blade Ligar. She went into a dive toward the Blade Ligar, ramming it in its side, and knocking it out of the way of the beam. Ryuu's side collides with the ground, shattering the joint of its wing.
"Rain are you ok?!" Cloud said.
"Yeah," She answered, bringing Ryuu back on its feet, "but I can't fly anymore."
Zero elevated, and headed strait for Tyra. He caught up with her, and pulled back on his controls, so the bahamut was standing strait up mid air. The plates of armor on its chest opened, revealing a massive unit of missiles. He let loose, sending the barrage at Tyra.
The StormSworder was hit, and it fell, colliding hard with the ground. Tyra and Lavender opened their eyes to a complete system freeze.
"Damn it!" Lavender yelled, crawling out of the cockpit with Tyra. They looked at the battlefield. Only 5 of the good guys were left.
"Leon I got an idea," Bit said, Leon's face appearing on screen.
"So did I. Hurry up." Leon answered. He knew exactly what Bit wanted to do, the problem, Bit needed the Schnider to do it.
Bit raced back to the Hover Cargo, and onto the CAS platform, "Doc, I need the Schnider armor. Hurry!"
"Sure, Bit." Tauros said, punching the command into the computer, the basic 0 armor was taken off of the Ligar 0, and replaced with the orange Schnider armor.
Bit launched himself out of the Hover Cargo just as Brad distributed a Smoke Screen. Unfortunately, Zero had infrared, and pinpointed the ShadowFox out. He fired his shock canon, hitting the neck of the shadowfox, instantly causing the command system to freeze. The ShadowFox collapsed, now out of the battle.
Bit rushed to meet up with Leon, and together they charged side by side toward the GunGyarados. The Schniders blades extended outward, and began to glow, as did the Blade Ligars, as they rushed forward.
"Seven Blade Attack!" Bit yelled, he and Leon both lunged at the GunGyarados, just as copper ducked, the Ligars each hitting a separate wing. The wings were torn off, and crushed, as the two Ligars went right through them. Copper cursed as he went after the Ligar 0.
"Im out of ammo." Zack said to himself, landing a short distance away from Cloud and Rain. Ryuu and the Silver Blade Ligar began to rush toward the Bahamut, "This is great," Zack said, "I've only got one choice left."
The Bahamut stood on its hind legs and aimed itself toward the two oncoming zoids, opening its mouth. The unidentifiable canon began to glow, a bright green light, as it charged.
"Now!" Zero said, pulling the trigger. The beam fired, heading strait in between the two zoids, the force of the beam pushed them backwards as it fried the joints in both zoids legs, freezing both zoids command systems.
Just then, a large WhaleKing appeared, and Orihimes image came onto both Zack and Coppers screens, "Well done. Finish the rest of them off, and return to the WhaleKing."
The WhaleKing hovered above The ShadowDancer, releasing some extension cables, and pulling it up into its cargo hold. It then moved to the Shadowfox.
Zack was about to retreat into the Whaleking when Leon came from behind with a 7 blade attack, completely freezing the Bahamuts system, and knocking Zack out.
The GunGyarados pointed it's charged particle canon at Cloud, but was stopped suddenly when Bit came from behind, using a strike Laser Claw to crush the intake fan. Copper cursed, and retreated, heading to the WhaleKing, which was now securing cables around Ryuu.
"Rain! Get out of the Cockpit!" Cloud yelled, trying to force the Blade Ligar onto its feet, with no success, "Common! LightStrike!"
"Cloud! The cockpit won't open!" Rain yelled, desperately trying to escape from the cockpit, "Its jammed shut!"
Ryuu was hoisted into the air, with Rain trapped inside. It was pulled into the WhaleKing, and the doors to the cargo hold were shut.
The hover cargo began to open fire, sending a barrage of missiles to the WhaleKing. Ori opened a com-link with the bahamut, "Zero... Zero wake up!"
Zack opened his eyes, and looked at Orihime.
"Get out of there and return to the WhaleKing now!" Ori yelled. Zack tried to move the bahamut, but Leon and the Blade Ligar where now holding it down, and it wouldn't move.
Orihime frowned at Zero and shook her head. The whaleKing turned, and headed off into the sky, leaving Zero and the Bahamut behind.
Izumi, Brad and Rain where now in the clutches of the enemy.... and Zack was stuck with the good guys.
