With the silver AC out of my way, I headed on deeper into the base.
In the next room were the main generators. I planted the bombs on the
closest one and set it for 5 minutes. Mission complete. Now I just had to
get out of the base, which was no biggie either.
I walked out of the base. Once outside, I saw the remains of Scott's AC. Both arms were blown off, and I could see parts of them lying everywhere. There were piles of rubble in other places, I guess MTs Lynn and Scott shot down. After taking a big look at the mess, Lynn's AC came boosting towards me.
"What the hell happened in there?" Lynn asked.
"Well, Sandy and Daniel died, and I made that silver AC run away," I replied.
"Yeah, well, Scott's dead."
"Yeah, I saw his remains already."
Lynn and I made a long distance transmission to Global Cortex saying that the mission is complete. After a few minutes, they said that they currently have no transports that are ready to pick them up, and the next one won't be until tomorrow morning. They suggested that we hide our ACs and spent the night in Skyline City. Well, that's good, since Lynn was hot and all.

Lynn and I moved our ACs to a warehouse in the outskirts of the city. It was about 9:30 when we parked our ACs and locked them. So, now what?
"Hey Lynn, you want to go down to Skyline City? We could go on like a date or something," I asked, trying to be 'cool'.
"Sure! Do you know anything that is happening tonight?" she asked.
"Umm," I looked at a poster pasted to the warehouse wall, "We could go to an armored core parts expo."
"Really? There's one here?" she asked.
"Yeah, well, it says here on this poster."
We headed to the arena where this event was being held. The whole event was being sponsored by Crest, one of the major AC parts supplier corporations. Lynn and I walked in. There were exhibits of old Crest parts, current parts, the prototypes, and some parts of Chrome, the old name of Crest. Lynn and I walked over to the prototypes, seeing what we can hope for in the stores.
"Wow! Look at this one!" Lynn exclaimed.
It was a prototype for the new right hand chain gun. This thing was huge! It was designed for only the strongest AC's, and heavyweights require that no other parts other than the required are equipped. The chain gun needed both the arms to support it, and the thing itself is the heaviest part on the market, other than some of the tank legs. But with all these drawbacks, what's the good news? The targeting system is top of the line, and is even claimed to be the best for a long time. The ammunition of the chain gun is around 5000, which ties with the record of most ammo. But the most outstanding spec was the damage each bullet does. Normal machine guns do around 100-200. This chain gun had a damage rating of over 600. That's about as powerful as some of the smaller missiles! This chain gun is something to behold.
Once done with that, we continued to the next exhibit. It was a new dual back weapon. It had two modes of fire. The first mode were mortar shells that can fire over walls. The second mode were direct grenades. Both modes had extremely powerful ammunition that match the best grenade launcher.
We moved on to see a left arm weapon. It was a very unique laser blade, because it wasn't even a laser blade! It was a laser whip! When activated, the pilot can grab objects at a distance, use it as an extended arm, and inflict damage! But it was still a prototype and Crest had to find a way to reduce the energy usage. But other than that, the product was almost prepared for public use.
When we were done, we went to the old Chrome parts. There were some interesting models, and they even had an exhibit on the first Moonlight laser blade. The original Moonlight was the most powerful one ever created, and Moonlight blades now are getting less and less. I'd do anything for that original Moonlight.
Once we were done, we headed back to the warehouses and looked for a hotel. Lynn and I rented a room at one of the hotels near the warehouse or ACs were at. Once inside, I decided to take a shower. I instantly went to the bathroom, got undressed, and went into the shower. It was about a 2 minutes when the door opened.
"Hey! I'm taking a shower!" I said.
"Well, I was wondering if I can join you," Lynn asked. Oh, shit!
She got undressed right in front of me. Dude, she is so damn sexy. After she was totally nude, she opened the shower door and got in with me.
