Decided to continue because I was bored. Anyway, thank you to Caspian Raider for the review.
Disclaimer: Once again, I do not own anybody EXCEPT for the Delta Team's members, zoids, and organoids. If you would like to use them for a fic of yours, e-mail me for permission. If there are any writers out there who have the same name for the team, etc. don't sue me. I had no way of knowing that you had the same idea.
Chapter 1:
In a city on the edge of the desert...
It was late afternoon when people coming in from the desert reported three new types of zoids. Pretty soon, the city was alive with the rumors of the zoids and their mysterious pilots. Were they mercenaries? Bandits? Military police test pilots?
The answer, of course, is none of the above. But as bad luck would have it, members of the Backdraft Group had heard the rumors as well...
Dusk came soon enough, and with it the new zoids. Three of them, as reported, and all of them of the same size.
The one in the middle led the trio. In the dim light, it was silvery-platinum, with a silvery-jade green tail. It moved with a kind of swagger, its helmeted head held high, as if it were proud of itself. And indeed it was.
To the left of the silver zoid was a colossus covered in glossy black metal. It resembled a four-legged Death Saurer, only slimmer, and with a slender spiked tail and horns. Its eyes glowed crimson, but nevertheless, its stride was prudent and careful, as if its pilot didn't want to harm anyone.
The last zoid guarded the rear. It was much easier to describe. It looked as if someone had carved Konig Wolf armor out of sheets of gold, polished them, and stuck them onto the stripped body of a Shadowfox. It had two sweeping horns and a Blade Liger's tail, only thicker, and with six crimson spikes.
All three zoids were quadrupeds, with talons and tail spikes made of some sort of red crystal. And all three zoids had children for pilots.
Hotel room...
Mel a.k.a. Milan decided to call a meeting to discuss their "training plans", as they called it.
Milan: Okay, lemme get this straight. Now, we're supposed to register in the ZBC. No problem with that.
"Nathan" & "Roxanne": ...?...
Milan: Watch...and learn...
*She raised her left hand (strapped to it was a watch which was actually a mini-computer) and pressed a few buttons. 3 diskette-like objects popped out.*
Nat & Rox: O.O
Milan: *distributes disks* ^_^ One for you, and one for you, and one for you!
Nat & Rox: O.~;;
Milan: *reverts to serious mode* We have our zoids and the diskamajigs. Tomorrow we battle.
Nat: *has recovered* Just like that...?
Mil: Just like that. You DO know how to fight, right?
Rox: Yeah, but...
Mil: But nothing! Tonight we sleep, t'morrow we battle!
A few days later...
A Hover Cargo pulled up on the outskirts of the city. The Hover Cargo of the Blitz Team (but I'm sure you know that already). A few hours later, 3 men and a woman strolled into the city.
They wandered off to their respective destinations. Bit "waltzed" into a battle café (a/n Check the bottom), Leena and Jaime headed off to pick up supplies, and Brad just plain wandered off.
Once inside the battle café, Bit found himself entranced by the battle that was being shown on the screen. Three zoids were pursuing a Lightning Saix. A big black zoid galloped along, firing at the Saix from a safe distance, while two other zoids kept up the chase, occasionally ramming into the cheetah zoid's side.
Bit walked up to the screen, his mouth open. " Wow, they're good! Who are they?" he asked to no one in particular. As he expected, he got an answer from an older man next to him. "Some new team called Delta. And yes, they're quite good, even though nobody knows who they are...yet."
Bit returned his attention to the battle. As he watched, the silver zoid fell back, and the gold zoid hopped in front of the Saix, forcing it to turn back. It did, and...
SKREEK!!! The silver zoid brought its paw down on the Saix's exposed side. The defeated zoid collapsed.
The buzzer sounded. [ The battle is over. The battle is over. The winner is...THE DELTA TEAM!] the judge declared.
On the battlefield...
Milan whooped and cheered, as did her teammates. "We won! We WON!!! I don't believe it! Our first Zoid Battle ever, and we won!!!" she yelled. She jumped down from the cockpit and hugged her zoid. "Thank you, Quicasoid! I LOVE YOU!!!" she shouted.
Quicasoid: ^_^
The cockpits of the Saix, Rev Raptor, and Dark Horn opened. The pilots stared in disbelief at the rejoicing team.
DH Pilot: I don't believe it! We were actually beaten by children! And they were rookies, too!
Back in the café...
Bit and the people in the café stared at the screen, their mouths open.
Bit: I don't believe it! They were actually beaten by children! And they were rookies, too!
A lone customer watched the aftermath of the battle for a few seconds, then made his exit.
Backdraft HQ...
The spy sent to investigate the rumors returned with an interesting report.
Spy: Commander Alteil, the rumors are true, sir. There are new zoids, and they are in the city mentioned.
Alteil: Is that so?
Spy: Not only that sir. The zoids are powerful, but the pilots are rookie children. Is it possible that the zoids may be a new type of Ultimate X?
Alteil: Highly possible, indeed. Now listen carefully. I want you to monitor the performance of the zoids and their pilots. Report to me after every battle. If the zoids are indeed Ultimate Xs, then we must have them immediately. Is that clear?
Spy: Sir, yes, sir!
Alteil: Alright. Your mission starts now.

I'll continue when I get 5-7 reviews.
A/N: A battle café is my term for that place where Bit often ends up watching Zoid Battles instead of doing what he's supposed to do.
For all of you out there who want a good description of the zoids of the Delta Team, be patient. I'll put up some sort of zoid bio after the last chapter.
Sorry if this was poorly written. I am a novice writer, and am doing my best. Thank you for your kind consideration.
