CHAPTER 11
Orihime stared at the scene before her as Ryuu emerged from the whaleking, completely repaired... and upgraded. It now had two gattling guns attached on the shoulders, and none other than a charged particle canon in it's mouth. Also, underneath it's wings were two multi-purposed dispensers.
Gabrielle appeared on everyone's screens, laughing evilly, "Now you shall all see the true power of my experiments!" She grinned cruelly, "Oh Cloud... is that really you?! This is all too grand... Cloud, the brave escapee destroyed by the one he loves the most... his own sister..."
"Shut up." Cloud stated his eye's flashing angrily.
"...his own baby sister..." She continued tauntingly, "Who, in the end, dies because the strain is too much on her frail, battered body..."
"Shut up!" Cloud yelled.
Gabrielle laughed and winked at Cloud, closing the com-link, "Rain... destroy all opposing zoids... including the blue hover cargo."
Ryuu roared as it spread its wings and took off into the air, quicker than any of them had seen before. It circled around once, and flew strait at The Wild Eagle.
"Man!" The Wild Eagle yelled as he pulled right on his controls, trying to dodge the impossibly fast dragon, "I can't fight her... it's Rain... and I can't let her hit me!"
Ryuu circled around again, this time even faster, and opened it's mouth as a bright white ball began to for inside.
"No way!" Naomi yelled over the com-link, "It can fire it's charged particle canon while moving!?"
"That's impossible!" Tyra added.
"Apparently not." Leon said as the bright beam headed strait for the Raynos, "Jemie get out of there!"
The Wild Eagle tried to dodge the beam, and succeeded, only to have one of it's wings cut clean off by the blade on top of Ryuus head. The Raynos collided with the ground, the Wild Eagle knocked unconscious by the crash.
"One down..." Gabrielle stated.
Orihime ran up to the young Admiral, her face clearly expression her anger, she was followed by Leena, Brad, Lavender, and Tyra.
"Commander!" Gabrielle yelled, "How dare you bring the enemy to me."
"Miss Gabrielle!" Orihime yelled back, "You can't be serious about using Rain! She'll die!"
"I don't care commander," Gabrielle stated, eyeing Leena and Tyra, who were both about to attack her, "I wouldn't move any closer any of you. If you do, I'll self detonate Ryuu, ruining even the slim chance of that little brat surviving..." she turned to Orihime, "and I'll order the annihilation of your parents, Miss commander Orihime."
Orihime cursed under her breath as she turned back to the battlefield, her eyes watching the ever powerful Ryuu as it landed, and began a charge at the red Gun Sniper, who was still on the cliff.
Naomi aimed directly at the dragon's neck and pulled the trigger on the approaching zoid. Ryuu swerved out of the shot, roaring as it did so, and picked up speed as it extended all the blades on it's body, charging strait for the Gun Sniper.
"Damn!" Naomi yelled as she tried to get out of the way. Unfortunately, she was surrounded by cliff on three sides, and Ryuu was blocking her only way out.
Tyra flew in low from behind Ryuu and began to fire rapidly.
Ryuu turned completely around and jumped on top of the StormSworder, digging it's sharp claws into the zoids back, and forcing it to skid into the ground roughly. Naomi tried to escape while Ryuu was busy, only to be hit with the dragons bladed tail, sending the Gun Sniper off the cliff.
Ryuu then quickly slashed at the StormSworders wings, making it impossible for the aerial zoid to fly, and brought it's tail down on the neck, crushing it, and freezing it's battle system completely.
"Two more down..." Gabrielle cruelly stated, her eye's flashing with excitement, "All that's left is the three kitties."
"How could you do this to your own niece?" Izumi yelled.
Gabrielle smiled evilly, "I honestly don't care if she's my niece or not... Hell, I wouldn't care if she was my own daughter. As long as I can use her to gain power under my name..."
"Your sick..." Lavender stated.
The blond admiral shrugged, "If that's how you see it... ah, looks like she's about to go after the White Ligar...."
All of them turned back to the battlefield, as Ryuu dived strait at the Ligar 0, it's claws outstretched. Bit jumped out of the way just in time, as the dragon pushed back off the ground with it's front legs. It opened it's mouth and the energy began to gather again.
Leon jumped at Ryuu from the side, as Cloud jumped at it from the other. Ryuu backed up a few steps, and spread it's wings, causing both Blade Ligars to collide with the blades on the tips of it's wings slicing the sides of the Ligars quite badly. It fired it's charged particle beam, barley missing Bit.
Leon and Cloud returned to their feet, as Ryuu began an onslaught of attacks. It bit down on the neck of Leon's Blade Ligar, and whipped it's tail at Cloud, opening another gash in the side of the Silver Blade Ligar.
The Ligar 0 ran up, it's claws glowing as it jumped into the air, and Bit yelled, "Strike Laser Claw!"
Ryuu dropped it's attack on the two Blade Ligars, and backed up a few steps, jumping into the air, and extending the blade on top of it's head. It hit the stomach of the Ligar 0, opening an large gash, and sending a barrage of sparks flying everywhere.
"Damn it!" Bit yelled, trying to force the Ligar to it's feet. It stumbled a bit, but stood, though shakily.
Ryuu roared as it spread it's wings and took off into the air, and began charging another charged particle beam.
Gabrielle clapped at the scene before her, her eye's never leaving the battle. She watched as intently as a child seeing a fireworks show for the first time.
"Admiral!" Ori yelled," You have to stop this... it's completely senseless."
"Shut up, Orihime!" Gabrielle said, "Im enjoying the show."
"You..." Leena said, "What's the matter with you anyway! How can anyone find that much joy at the expense of others!?"
Orihime just turned back to the battle not bothering to answer Leena, as Goji ran up. He looked like he was about to attack Gabrielle, when Lavender stopped him and shook her head.
Suddenly an explosion rang out as Ryuu fired another charged particle canon at the hover cargo. The large snail like transporter raised it's shields, barley able to keep them up through the attack. Ryuu roared as it opened its mouth.
"Bit!" Doctor Tauros yelled, "Get back in here and convert to the Schnider. We've got about 2 minuets before it will be able to fire again."
"Sure doc..." Bit said, running to the hover cargo, "What's your plan?"
"We'll knock it out of the sky, using the catapult. You can hit it before it fires, just like we did with Layons whaleking, remember?!."
"Right!" Bit replied as he jumped onto the CAS platform, "Why don't I shoot it out with the panzer though?"
"Because with the damage the Ligar has already sustained, it wouldn't be able to handle the weight and strain of the panzer."
"Oh." Bit said, "Activating Ligar 0 Schnider."
The basic 0 armor was removed from the Ligar, and it was replaced by the orange armor of the Schnider unit. "CAS complete, Ligar 0 Schnider ready."
The bright light began to form inside Ryuu's mouth, as the catapult was extended out of the top of the hover cargo. It aimed directly at the dragon zoid, and the Schnider launched itself into the air, its blades outstretched, "Seven blade attack!"
The Schnider hit Ryuus wing, causing it to jerk violently, and sending it's charged particle beam off course. Before the two zoids fell, Ryuu clamped onto the back of the Ligar 0, digging it's claws into its armor plates, it began tearing off pieces of the Schnider armor.
"Bit getison your armor now!" Doctor Tauros yelled, "If you don't she'll force you under her to break her fall!"
Bit pulled back on his armor controls, and turned them to the sides, causing the schnidar armor to fall off. Ryuu still had a piece of the Schnider in it's hands as both zoids fell to the ground. Both zoids managed to land on their feet, but the shock of landing caused the Ligars Command system to freeze, so it could no longer move.
Ryuu ran at the Ligar 0, and grabbed the zoids neck in it's mouth. It began to apply pressure, as the lights inside the cockpit went out. Bit tried to move, but to no avail, "Common Ligar!" he yelled.
Before Ryuu could cause any more damage, it was rammed in the side by Leon. The dragon roared in annoyance as it whipped it's tail around, completely opening the blade Ligars side, causing its system to completely freeze.
"Rain!" Cloud yelled, trying to draw Ryuu's attention off of the two frozen zoids. It was successful, as Ryuu turned to face the approaching Blade Ligar.
Gabrielle appeared once again on Clouds screen, "Well isn't this ironic? ... a showdown between brother and sister..."
"Screw you!" Cloud yelled, clicking off his com-link. He faced Rain and began to charge, just as Ryuu began to charge at him. They where on a collision course, all eyes set on the two zoids. Cloud stopped at the last second, and pushed a small button on his controls. Just before Ryuu was able to strike, Cloud raised his shield, trapping Ryuu in the shield...on both sides. It's armor began to crumble, as Ryuu continued to try and push through the pink barrier. The shield gave way, Ryuu collapsed, and the cockpit shattered.
"LightStrike!" Cloud yelled. The organoid roared in response, and took off out of the Blade Ligar, and into the cockpit of Ryuu. He chewed the cords on the MCME helmet clear off, and carried Rain out, lying her gently in the sand.
Cloud jumped out of his cockpit and ran over, soon followed by everyone else. He bent down and removed the rest of the MCME helmet off her head and looked her over. She had open cuts all up and down her body. Her skin was deathly pale, and her breathing was shallow. her arm was obviously broken, along with her ribs, and collar bone.
Cloud took of his jacket and wrapped it around the now shaking girl. She cried out slightly as he moved her, she was in a deep state of unconsciousness. All eyes were on the girl as Cloud slowly and carefully picked her up into his arms.
Suddenly Ryuu roared as it stood up. Everyone jerked in surprise, as Gabrielle stood up in the cockpit, "I have all of you exactly where I want you!" She screamed, "Now Im finally going to kill you Cloud, and Rain as well! Completely erasing the memory of my genius brother and his slutty wife off of all of Zi!"
Suddenly another roar erupted, surprising even Gabrielle. The group turned, amazed to see the Bahamut standing. Zero's pain filled voice filled the air, "Everyone... get out.... of the way!"
Orihime gasped as bright green lines appeared on the Bahamuts armor, "He can't!"
"What's he doing?!" Goji yelled.
"He's using the Bahamuts Ultima Flare..." Orihime stated, "It could easily destroy Ryuu.."
Zero laughed, "Ryuu's... not my only... target..."
"He's going to hit both Ryuu and the base at once..." Brad said observing the situation.
"But..." Orihime said, "... it will destroy him and the Bahamut as well."
"Im... going to completely..." Zero stated, "destroy everything... that has to do with this dammed system..."
Gabrielle laughed cruelly, "To hit me with that you'll need me to stay still for enough time for you to charge... and believe me... that's quite impossible."
Cloud sighed and carried Rain over to Orihime, who happened to be closest, and placed the unconscious 14 year old in the young commanders arms, "Take care of her..." Then he turned to LightStrike, "You stay her too buddy... protect Rain forever..."
"Cloud..." Izumi stated as Cloud climbed into the cockpit of his Blade Ligar.
The silver Blade Ligar came to life, and Cloud took off in a run, strait at Ryuu. The Ligar's Claws began to glow, as he aimed directly at the stomach of the dragon.
"Strike..." Cloud said calmly a grin appearing on his face as he opened a com-link with Gabrielle.
"You can't!" Gabrielle yelled, "You'll get in the way!"
"Laser..."
"Cloud!" Leon said, "You can't..."
"Claw!"
The Blade Ligar dug his claws deep into Ryuu's stomach, holding it still, "Zero do it now!" Cloud yelled, "Don't worry about me just shoot!"
Zero nodded as the green outlines began to flow up the Bahamuts body and into it's mouth. A ball of pure green light began to form in it's mouth as a screen appeared in front of him. It was warning him of the precautions and dangers of the Ultima Flare. Zack clicked the screen away, thinking about what Lavender had said to him before... she was right... he didn't have any friends that would worry about him.
Various other balls of green light began to form in the mouth of the Bahamut. The smaller balls of light began to merge into the main sphere of energy, and it grew larger and larger.
"Hurry up Zero!" Cloud yelled. He was loosing his grip on Ryuu.
Zero laughed, his head was killing him, and he felt dead sick to his stomach... but destroying everything that had to do with the MCME system was going to feel good.
The light began to diminish as he pulled the trigger. Everyone watched as nothing happened for at least 10 seconds, then a beam of various greens shot out, causing everyone to gasp and shield their eyes.
Various explosions took place all over the body of the Bahamut, as pieces of it fell apart and where consumed into the bright green light.
When the smoke cleared, the Bahamut was in pieces on the sand, and Ryuu's and the Shield Ligars body where also in pieces, scattered around in the burning desert sands. The Whaleking had taken the bulk of the blow, and most of it was completely disintegrated.
The group gasped in horror as they all stared at the wrecks. Izumi was the first to break her shock, followed by Lavender and Leena.
Izumi began to run to the Blade Ligar, tears forming in her eyes... 'this isn't like me...' she thought... 'I don't cry... but... Cloud and Rain...' she wiped away her tears and called, "Damn it Cloud Light-Feather... you better be alive... Rain needs you! You stupid bastard."
The entire group began to run towards the Blade Ligar. All of them... Bit, Leena, Brad, Jemie, Tyra, Lavender, Izumi, Naomi, Leon, Goji, and Orihime (Who walked with rain in her arms).
They all began to call out Clouds name... hoping for some response...
END OF CHAPTER 11.
