The Cranos fleet is just hours away from it's
destination; the Mars Colony. Onboard the flagship Chaldear, the matriarch of
the Cranos is sitting high in her throne within the ship's main bridge."The
time is almost at hand for our victory," she whispers to herself. She turns her
attention to the large and imposing general before her. "Are the troops ready
for the invasion, General Radean?" Radean bows down on one knee before his
sovereign. "Yes, Matriarch. The final preparations are complete." The
Matriarch leers down at Radean. "Have you yet determine the location of the
missing prototype?" "No. My Scouts have yet to report any new leads on the
situation. Also, we have yet to determine the identity of the one who stole it.
Though we have reason to believe that it was a member of the group known as the
Warrior of Calas." Radean prepares himself for the Matriarch's
reaction. "Well try harder or I may lose my faith in you, General. You are
dismissed." Radean bows his head to the floor before he stands. Afterwards he
rises and walks around the Matriarch's throne, keeping a fair distance between
the two of them, and exits the bridge. "I better make sure that I find that
missing suit or the Matriarch's faith won't be the only thing I lose." Radean
whispers to himself as he marches towards the suit hangers. "Everyone. I
doupt we will have the element of surprise, but we must engage the enemy
nonetheless. We are doing this for all of humanity." Lucas communicates to the
other pilots behind him. Logan flies the Gundam Neo-Epyon up besides Lucas.
"Lucas, I still say we should have left the girls, and William, back at my base.
They aren't ready for something like this. I understand that we have to do
everything in our power to fight the Cranos, but we can't put the them in
danger." "I know," Lucas sighs, "but we have no choice. You heard what Xenlar
said, his kind are out to erradicate us all." Xenlar flies the Zenron up on
the other side of Lucas. "I agree with Logan. Perhaps we should send them back
with William. You two have no idea what you are about to face out there, but I
do. They would not last a heartbeat. I'm not even sure we could do anything
ourselves. I say we should all head back and wait to ambush the fleet before
they arrive at the Mars Colony. It's insane to attack such a force directly!"
Lucas begins to show his age. "Perhaps you two are right." "I wonder
what they are doing up ahead? Those three must be up to something, but I don't
know what." Alexia asks Sandra as they fly close together. "I don't know,
but I think we should be back at the base organizing a better plan of attack
than this!" William flies between the sisters. "I agree. But we should
follow their lead and attack our enemy." William fails to hide his excitement
for the upcoming battle. "I want to kick some alien tail too, but they're
gonna blast us into pieces before we have a chance to do anything!" Sandra yells
at William. Before anything else is spoken, Lucas, Logan and Xenlar break
formation. The three seem to be intercepting unseen forces. Out of the
blackness of space, six space cruisers, almost perfectly similar to Xenlar's,
come within viewing distance of Alexia, Sandra and William. The cruisers begin
to transform from their space cruiser mode, and into their combat mode. The
wings fold out, and form the arms. Below the main structure, opens a set of
gates, and the legs are deployed. By now the cruisers are at standing position.
The fuselodge of each cruiser folds down onto the bottom of the cruiser, which
is now the chest area of the suits. From behind the end of the fuselodge,
between the shoulders, a head rises up on each suit. All the transformations are
complete. The suits now begin to attack Lucas, Logan and Xenlar. The Zenron
transforms from it's cruiser mode into it's combat mode in the same way as the
other suits have done. Xenlar concentrates. From each of the Zenron's forearms,
erupts a large blade of dark energy, the Psionic Blades. Xenlar stands his
ground, ready to strike. Lucas and Logan both converge on Xenlar's position.
Logan reaches for one of his Gundam's Hyper Velocity Rail Cannons and opens fire
a volley of shots at the cluster of enemies. The shots seem to have no effect on
the enemy suits. "What's going on? Why can't I hit them?" Xenlar sends a
message to each of the pilots around him. "They have energy shields. They have
managed to deflect your onslaught. These are my people, our mutual enemy, the
Cranos." Logan puts away the Rail Cannon while the three young pilots behind
them catch up. "Are these the most powerful warriors you have, Xenlar?" "No,
Logan. These are only Scouts, thus they are not as powerful as the standard
soldiers are. They only do reconnaissance, thus their built for covert
operations. That is why their shields are strong. Only a powerful force can
penetrate them. They are also going to alert the rest of the fleet about our
position. We must stop them before they do so." With his blades held high,
Xenlar charges at the closest enemy to him. He cuts through the Scout's shield
by countering it with his own.They meet eachother with blades drawn as they
begin to duel. Logan quickly choses his own partner in battle. Raising
his tethered hilt before himself, Logan flips the switch that activates the flow
of power from the Gundam's generator to his Beam Sword. A large green blade of
emmence energy erupts from the hilt as Logan charges forward at an incredable
speed towards his quarry. He raises the blade high above his head with both
hands as he slashes the sword downward. The blade cuts through the shield with
minimal effort. The force of the shield breaking apart pushes Logan back, which
allows the Scout to retaliates with blades of his own. Logan raises his sword to
meet the challenge. Meanwhile Lucas is prepareing himself for battle, as
well as prepareing Alexia, Sandra and William. "Now listen all of you. We have
to stop these Scouts, or they will ruin any chance that we have at a surprise
attack. Now it will be the simplest plan of attack if we each take one of these
Scouts on our own. Don't be afraid to back out and seek another's aid if things
get rough. Understand?" All the pilots answer in unison. "Roger." With
their response, Lucas charges toward one of the Scouts, no weapons drawn. As
Lucas nears it, he reaches, one arm to the other's bicep, grasps a hilt in each
hand, and extends each of the Beam Axe's blades as he cross slashes at the
enemy. It manages to block the attack with it's energy shield, but it soon
begins to give way as Lucas continues to push with all his might. The clash
between forces ends in a tempest of released energies as the shield fails. The
blades continue towards their target, but the Scout manages to catch Lucas by
the wrists and throws him towards another of his comrads. As Lucas flies
aimlessly towards the new foe, William rushes towards Lucas and manages to catch
him in midflight. "Thank you, William." Lucas manages to gasp. "Don't
mention it, now go get that guy that tossed you aside like trash, and give it to
him while I get this one." "Right you are." While the battle rages
on, Alexia and Sandra can only stand and watch as each of their fellow pilots
battle the Cranos Scouts. Sandra looks to her sister. "What can we do?" "All
we can do is try to fight. You know what will happen if we don't do something."
Out from nowhere, the two remaining Scouts converge with eachother and begin
to attack the sisters simultaneously. The sisters manage to see them. Alexia
dodges to one side, and Sandra dodges to the other, as the Scouts pass between
them. "Let's blow them away before they can get us again!" Alexia shouts to
Sandra as she raises her suit's Mega Cannon to fire. Sandra does the same as the
two enemy suits turn around. The energy charges within both cannons. The
sister's stand side by side as they pull their triggers, releasing two massive
beams of energy at the stunned Scouts. The distance between the sister's
Gundams, and the Scout's suits, is not great, but in that short distance, both
the beams find their respected targets. A clash of raw energy erupts from the
conflict between the combined force of the two energy beams, and the combined
force of both the Scout's energy shields. In a flash of bright light, the
sisters are thrown backwards. Logan counters nearly every blow that his
quarry deals. No quarter is given, nor is any asked for. Both warriors suit's
are severly damaged. Logan tries to backhand the Scout with his Heat Whip, but
it dodges it and flies up, above Logan. In a seeming act of desperation, the
Scout flies downwards, headfirst, at Logan with blazing speed. It thrusts it's
blades ahead of itself, closing the distance between itself and Logan like an
airborne missile. With raw power and elegance, Logan charges towards the Scout.
At the last second, Logan thrusts his Beam Sword upwards with both hands. The
blade slips in between the Scout's blades, and pierces into the downward looking
face of the enemy suit. The Scout's own momentum pushes it further onto the
blade untill it cleaves the Scout strait down the middle, and splits into two
pieces. Logan has no time to escape as the Scout explodes upon him with an
overwelming blast of energy.. "Did we get them?" Sandra yells outloud
while she scans the area. As the light fades away, two figures seem to appear
amid the glow. "No... This can't be..." The two Scouts manage to survive the
blast at a large cost to their shields and overall structure. The two damaged
Scouts charge toward the sisters with their Psionic Blades drawn. Sandra mearly
stands in awe as the tough foes scream towards her with blinding speed. As the
inhuman scouts both attemt to slash Sandra simultaneously, one scout's blades
are stopped by the blade end of Alexia's Beam Saber, and the other's are stopped
by the emmence blade of Logan's Beam Sword. The badly damaged Neo-Epyon manages
to hold on against the assault. "Logan," Alexia pleads, "your Gundam is
ready to fall apart, get out of here!" Logan kicks the Scout, that is nearly
on him, backwards. "Sorry, I can't just let these monsters get you." Logan turns
his attention to the other Scout. He slashes his blade onto the shoulder of the
other Scout, cleaving off it's arm. The armless Scout turns to look at his
comrad, then the other begins to back away. The armless Scout begins to glow.
The glow flickers slowly, then it begins to flicker faster. In a bright flash of
light, the Scout self-destructs before anyone can stop it. The blast erupts
towards Alexia, Sandra, and Logan. The blast hurdles towards the three
pilots. The other pilots battle on as faith takes its course.
