All right. Here's the next chapter. Oh and I forgot to thank you guys for all the reviews. My goal for this fic is at least twenty. Do you guys think you can make that happen. And I was pointed out that last chapter I put "women" instead of "woman". I fixed that just to let you know.
And before I start I suggest that you read "Zoids: The New Warrior" by our very own
The Black Liger X. It is excellent!
Disclaimer: I don't own Zoids. But before I forget I made a little adjustment to James' Shadow Fox. And I own James Tyler and my reviewers own Angel, Nikita, and Sakura.


James was the first one up the next morning. He figured they could catch up with the bandits that day. As soon as James emerged from his tent so did Nikita. "James you think we'll get them today?" Nikita asked packing his tent.

"Yeah. There's suppose to be an old fort standing from the war. I think that's were they're hiding."

"You do realize that if they've been there a while they'll be dug in. Ready for any damn attack thrown at them."

"Yeah, that's why it's gonna' be fun," James answered back smiling.

Angel and Sakura also emerged from there tents only a few minutes after James and Nikita woke up. They all packed in silence and then got into their cockpits.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They went in the same direction the old fort was suppose to be. "James," Angel asked "where are we going?"

"Where we're going is an old fort that survived the war. I think its name is Inkasea."

Angel stopped suddenly. Sakura and her Raynos slowed to a near stop. The color drained from both girls' faces. "Did you say Inkasea?" Angel asked.

"Yeah. That's where I think the bandits have their main base," James answered. Both girls picture popped up in James cockpit looking at him. "Uh did I say something?"

"James," Sakura said "do you know the legend behind Inkasea?"

"Uh no. Nikita you ever hear anything about Inkasea?" James asked wondering why the name Inkaesa scared the shit out of Angel and Sakura.

"Same here. Never heard of Inkasea."

"Angel I'll tell him," Sakura said. The color slowly appeared a little in Angel's face. "James, Nikita. Not many people know the legend about Inkasea. It was a base for the Republic a few miles into Republican territory. Its main purpose was to guard the border. Make sure a that not even one Imperial men make it farther into their Republican territory. Well the Fifth Battalion, First Panzer Division made it across the border and to the base. The men inside wouldn't surrender when given the chance so the base was surrounded. For two weeks the Republicans died in there while the Imperialist waited outside firing only once in a while. After the war a group of men from the Republic broke into the base to recover the bodies. What they found was horrifying. Bodies were every where and Zoids were trashed."

"Well some story," James said sorry he even said where they were going.

"The story doesn't stop there. The men also found something in the center of the fort. It was said to be a combination of parts from Zoids found in the building. It was suppose to help defeat them Imperialists outside the base. The Army studied it and after finding nothing special about it used it for target practice."

"I still just don't get how all that scares you two," Nikita said.

"The whole thing. Angel and I are just girls," Sakura answered back.

"Well I can assure you two that the only thing we're going to find at Inkasea are those bandits," James told Angel and Sakura "and speak of the devil look there it is. Inkasea."

The old Republican base Inkasea stood out in the sand. After years and many dust storms it had the look that all old forts or bases have in Zoids. (You know the color. It looks like it's make of sand. If you've seen the first episode in CC where Van found Zeke and Fiona it sort of resembles that)

James, Angel, Sakura, and Nikita all sat ready in their cockpits.

As the group moved down the cliff over looking Inkaesa the main doors the front doors of the base opened up. Out of the doors came Guysacks, Rev Raptors, and finally Dark Horns which were most likely piloted by the commanders of the Zoid force. Then form the top the base came Dark Redlers.

"Sakura you handle the air. Angel, Nikita, and I will manage down here," James told the group gripping the controls of his Shadow Fox.

"James how 'bout we split up on this. I'll go left. Angel goes right and you go right down the middle," Nikita said also gripping his controls.

The three on the ground all decided on that and moved out. Meanwhile the opposing Zoid force had all ready assembled into what looked like their battle formation.

James charged full speed firing his 30mm Laser Vulcan Gun hitting at least five or more Rev Raptors. Where the opposing forces companions fell it seemed more showed up to take their place. (A/N: If you notice I'm real specific on the Zoids weapons for some reason. If you want to know same of their weapons go to metalmachinemusic.com I was given this site by gamegurl mirai. Thank you for that site. It was a big help.) When James got in close enough he started using the Fox's powerful jaw to tear out the Zoids. It was like when a pack of wolves kills a deer. Instead of blood there were Zoid parts flying every where.

Meanwhile Angel fired her shot cannon from underneath her Blade Liger. It was the same with her. Where the enemy fell there were more to take their place. She finally opened her blades, and activated her boaster and charged in. With the amount of the enemy her blades weren't doing as much damage. When she turned around and went out a Rev Raptor her right blade got stuck in a Zoid it hadn't sliced through. While that happened one of the Dark Horns came up and shot at her with his machine gun. All this happened so fast Angel didn't get a chance to open her shield.

While that happened Nikita ran out to the enemy force, but turned around and ran toward the cliff. The enemy Zoids followed just as he thought. He walked backwards towards the edge of the cliff. The following Rev Raptors charged thinking he was cornered. But they were wrong. Wrong enough it cost them their life. Nikita jumped over them and to make sure he fired his booster. This happened so fast the Rev Raptors didn't have time to stop and they ran off the cliff falling towards the rocks below. Nikita ran to join the others.

Once the three on the ground had regrouped they fired at the enemy. The whole timed they fired they didn't realize they had been circled until they were overwhelmed with fire power that all their Zoids came down with a system freeze.
