Chapter 4: The Infiltration
Both Naomi and Oni were up early, getting ready to leave for the Imperial Army base. They ate a quick breakfast and were off before 10:00. "Do you think we can pull this off?" Oni asked over the commo from the cockpit of his Zoid. Naomi answered back pretty quickly. "Of course we will! We have to complete the objectives before us! Or we die trying!" Oni got the message and stayed quiet for a little while. It was silent until General Nemeth spoke over the commo.
"Welcome back mercenaries, I understand you have a ShadowCat and a Pterror, correct?" the general asked. Oni answered "Correct". "Good, because we have a rendezvous point with stealth items for those Zoids on the way to the base. You should see the parachutes dropping right in front off you as we speak." Nemeth was right, Naomi was the first to notice how 2 parachutes were falling from the sky almost a kilometer in front of them. "Thanks Nemeth" Naomi said as they closed in on the boxes. "It's general, and I assume you know how to use them. I will contact you again as you get closer to the base, over and out."
When they got to the drop zone, Naomi discovered that the boxes held weapon and ammo upgrades for both there Zoids, as well as a cloaking device with a transmission Decoder. "Kick ass!" Oni yelled as he saw his new weapons. "He looks like a kid in a candy store." Naomi thought to herself as she started to put her upgrades on her Pterror. It took about half an hour before they both got all their new "toys" finished. "We should start heading on." Naomi said as Oni jet out in front of her. "Come on Naomi, first one to get to the base wins! Try to keep up!" Oni yelled over the commo as Naomi thought to herself. "He wants a race does he? Well he'll get one!" She pushed the accelerator all the way and laughed as she passed Oni.
They raced through canyons and over mountains before a flash in front of them caught Oni's attention. He stopped short and zoomed in. There was a Zoid, sitting in the middle of the desert. "Hey Naomi, do you see that Zoid?" Naomi took a little while and saw it too. "How did he see that" she thought to herself. "The computer registers it as neutral but we still should be careful!" Oni said as he went toward it. As he got within seeing distance the Zoid pilot spoke. "Oni, Naomi? Is that you?" They both stopped dead before they spoke. "It depends, whose asking?" Oni asked and the other pilot sounded amazed. "Oni has it been that long that you don't remember me, your best friend?" Oni took a little while to remember but he finally got it. "Frost? Is that you?" "You better believe it! I was sent to help you guys end this fucked up thing."
They rode together, with Frost and his Spitfire Zoid, a Dragon type once again toward the enemy base. They activated stealth 50 feet out of tracking range and successfully made it into a hanger to hide. When they exited their Zoids they went straight toward the showers.
