Zoids: Counterforce

Pyroteknix

Addition to my previous disclaimer: The Preventers in my fanfic are completely different from the Gundam Endless Waltz Preventers, aside from the name.

3 weeks later, JC strolls away from the mini-courtroom of the Preventer's base located at the fringe of the Empire's Capital, not really a choice locaton for a base, as most Preventers were Republic Supporters during the war and most of them still harbor dissent towards the Empire and objects affiliated with it. JC, happy with being acquitted from his case, walks toward his temporary room in the base, seeing as is his previous home was destroyed. "So," Lt. Max walks out of an adjacent corridor. "Where you going after we release you?" JC shrugs to his sometime good friend, sometime worst enemy." Find the guy who destroyed my town, then kill him in battle." Max chews his tongue, leaning his lanky body on the cold steel wall. "I ran a check on the design of the zoid you described to me, my first fears came true." The Preventer Lt shuffled his feet uncomfortably. "You know Raven right?" He asks JC. "No, who is he? I never heard of the guy." JC asks tentatively. " Raven is the most wanted criminal in the entire planet Zi." "Damn. And I suppose he pilots some super powerful t-rex type zoid?" Max nods his head. "Shows what a backwater town he came from." Max thinks. "We have records that show that his zoid, the Genobreaker, has a charged particle beam. There are only 4 zoid types that have one, and only 2 of them are t-rex types." JC cracks his knuckles, grinning. " Alright! Tell me his most recent appearance aside from my town." Max's mouth turns into an even wider grin."Classified info, you need to be a Preventer first" JC rests his head on his right hand, messing up his hair. "So you're forcing me to join you Preventers to find Raven eh?" Max raises his hands. "Okay, I admit, you're not so stupid after all." "I'll think about it." Max turns away and heads back to his room. "Tell me if you want to join." He calls back.

"Ah, Raven, good work collecting the data about those Preventers. I need you to collect a bit more though." Raven smiles. "How much for the job, and do I get to kill anyone?" "Double your previous pay, Raven. However, you don't get to kill anyone." Raven grimaces. "What's the fun in owning the world's most powerful zoid if you can't kill anyone with it." His mysterious contact replies, his voice full of malice. "But, during the battle, a Gunsniper might appear, you can annihilate him and his zoid completely. He is the lone survivor of the attack on the village, JC." Raven's voice is filled with evil glee. "Thank you sir!"

"Red Alert! I Repeat, Red Alert!" Lt. Max races across the corridor, red light filling it due to the crimson tint of the emergency light. "Shit! Why did the Genobreaker have to appear now! Were short of men and JC just left minutes ago!" Max runs into the garage and stands still for a while, as he watched the sheer chaos. People running everywhere, pilots in their red and black jumpsuits, cushioned pads on the suit's elbows, knees and shoulders. Technicians and mechanics in their yellow and black jumpsuits, their suits only differing from the pilot's in the color scheme and the fact that the mechanics wore earmuffs to drown out the noise of flying zoids' takeoff. "Guio, Dean!" Max calls to his partners and friends, the pilots who controlled the Lightning Saix and Venomous Viper, respectively. "Hey Max! I can't fight in my Racer (name of Dean's Venomous Viper), his gyroscope isn't functioning accurately, I can't control him!" Guio merely nods and hops into his zoid, activating it's immensly powerful legs and boosters. "Let's go Max!" He shouts. Max jumps into his zoid, the same upgraded Command Wolf Urban he used to apprehend JC. " Hey, RG! How's your Dibison? Is it ready to take the Genobreaker on again?" RG, a tan skinned Lt who happened to fight the Genobreaker prior to this event and lose completely, smirks. " You watch your back, Max, I'm ready for him!" Max, Guio, RG and RG's troops race out to meet the Genobreaker, currently tearing through the Preventer forces like a hot knife through butter. Max takes a deep breath, "Okay guys! Were going in!"
