Author Notes: The team landed, and with unknown tech and advanced mechs they soon find themselves in deep. I'm sorry for the late update. I'm working on multiple fanfics, which I want to put up real soon. Tell me what you think of them when they come out.
The dropship touched down. Ryuichi finished the last finishing touches to his lightning saix. "Finally solid ground."
"Hold on Ryu, we can't just go barging out there. Remember we aren't exactly alone on this planet." Celes said.
"Aw man, and I thought the hard stuff was over." Ryuichi huffed.
"Ryu-chan when was it ever easy when we arrived in this system?" Celes asked.
"Alright already, you win, it was never easy when we arrived in system." Ryuichi huffed.
Celes held up the V sign and then grasped onto Ryuichi. "C'mon let's go, I wanna go and make some cookies."
Ryuchi perked up. "Fine with me, let's go!" Picking her up he dashed with Celes in his arms. Not noticing her flipping the V sign again.
"It seems like it's been forever since we got onto solid ground." Isis said.
"Hmm." Goji tweaked another gear in the panel, trying to complete the adjustments on Temjin X.
"Goji… how close were you and Hiami?"
Bonk "I te!" Goji rubbed the spot on he hit on his head.
"Goji are you all right?" Isis was by his side in an instant, checking his head.
"I'm all right Isis, ouch!"
Isis kissed the bump on his head and purred. "Yeah, I know my strong, tough biozoid."
"Thanks, so why do you want to know about Hiami?" Goji rubbed his head some more before turning back to his zoid.
"You two were close, I can see it every time she looks at you. So how close were you?"
Goji sighed. "Isis… If I was still with Hiami now, I'd have already gone on one knee and held out a diamond ring to her. That is how close we were."
The ears on top Isis's head drooped as she hung her head. "I didn't know… you didn't follow through with it because she wouldn't be able to handle it, didn't you?"
Goji paused in his work before sighing. "Yeah, I did."
"It must have been hard." Isis said, feeling really down, she felt like she was stealing Goji from Hiami.
"I… I don't even know if I've gotten over her yet." Goji said, pausing in his work.
Isis felt her stomach start tying knots as his words dug into her brain. "I'm… I'm gonna go for a walk." Isis got up and began walking away. Goji didn't reply he kept on working on his zoid, silent and at a mechanical pace.
Twilight lifted her head as Isis came in and jumped into bed and began sobbing. Swiftly she changed to her human form and sat at the edge of the bed. "Child what's wrong now?" Hotaru has seen Isis like this before, usually because of remembering her times with the scientists and her parents murder but something felt amiss this time.
Isis looked back at the emotionless face of the first successful biozoid that happened to be the mother of the boy she was dating. "I don't know what to think anymore. I know Goji likes me, and I sure as heck like him. But he still feels for Hiami, and I can see she still loves him. I feel like I'm stealing him, I know I'm not, but… still." The cat girl resumed crying as Hotaru looked on.
"Oh dear, I was afraid of this." Shifting back to organoid form, she headed out the door and made a beeline toward Hiami's quarters.
Meanwhile just outside of the dropship. "Captain what do we do?" leftenant George Geoffrey Thorse, aka GG the horse asked his CO.
"So far there hasn't been any activity, I'll go out first you and Jigo cover me." Captain Monika said moving her red Mad Cat to enter into the clearing.
"Hey we got company." Hillary said.
Zack nodded seeing the giant mech approaching on the screen. "I'll go meet them." Zack said walking out to go to the hanger.
"You be careful now… Zacky poo." Hillary added the last part with a smile.
Zack tripped over his feet and landed face first on the ground, getting up rubbing his nose he stared at Hillary with disbelief. "Zacky poo?"
"You don't like it?" Hillary asked.
"No I don't." Zack stated firmly, a blush extending from his face to his neck.
"Your no fun at all." Hillary pouted but her eyes gleamed with mischief.
Zack could only sigh as he walked out.
Monika stopped her mech when she saw what came out of the hanger bay of the dropship. "What the hell is that thing?"
Zack zoid pounded down the ramp and faced the lance commander. "Zack Zero Cooper welcome, I must ask you to leave your robot here before entering the dropship."
"I'm staying in my mech until I get some answers, like why are a bunch of kids in a clan dropship and piloting weird mechs." Monika said.
"Ma'am I'm just following procedures that I used when I was in the military." Zack said.
"Military? Your too young to be in the military." Monika stated.
"Where I come from we can, so are you going to get out of your machine and meet with our leader or are you just gonna argue with me all day?" Zack said sounding tired.
Monika growled and switched her channel to GG's. "GG I'm going to leave my mech if you see anything pound the dropship with everything you got."
"Be careful, captain." GG replied.
Meanwhile hidden behind abandoned supplies and trash of the dropship hanger.
"Well, well, we have some company here. Copper why don't we go greet them now."
"I'd be my pleasure." Copper said. 'Just wait you bitch this battle will be your last.'
Monika was about to shut her mech down when an explosion on the dropship erupted from its side. "What in hell?"
Viper II and the GunGyarados walked out of the smoking hole.
"Crap it's them! All personnel Copper and Jira are on the loose!" Zack turned Bahamut Zero toward the two zoids and fired. Viper II boosted out of the way while the GunGyarados weathered the shots and turned toward the zoid daring to fire upon him.
"Oh so you're my first victim, goodbye." Copper began charging his particle cannon. When the Bahamut Zero charged forward slamming into the other zoid. "Dammit!" Copper shut down the charging process and began to tear into Zack's zoid.
"Let's move it people!" Hillary shouted, Zack was outside with two enemy zoids, one which he was tearing his zoid to pieces as he fought close range. Her Gunsniper thundered down the ramp and charged the dueling zoids. Then her zoid was sent flying when Viper II slammed into her side, the laser sword came down and was knocked aside by a speeding object.
"No!" Goji ran for the open hanger door as viper II rammed into Hillary's zoid.
"Goji wait, your zoid!" Isis yelled out.
"No time!" Goji yelled out. "Biozoid!" Goji's figure twisted and contorted growing reptilian then armor plates slid into place covering his entire body. Booster's on his back lit up and sent him rocketing toward Viper II.
Isis stared slack jawed. "Incredible…" She muttered.
Goji slammed into the arm of Viper II knocking it aside allowing Hillary the time to get her zoid to its feet and get away.
Jira didn't give Hillary a second thought, Goji was in front of her in full biozoid form. "Just as beautiful as always." She said and popped her cockpit. "So you finally decided to come?"
Goji growled. "You should get ready to fight me Jira, I'm not holding back."
"I see, it will be my pleasure." Jira's grin grew as she threw her head back. "Biozoid!"
Copper stopped his massacre on Zack's zoid when he saw what was taking place. "What is this?" Then he realized that Goji and Jira were right there together. "This is my chance." He started the charging of his particle cannon. "Both of you shall die. All of you shall die!"
