Unlikely Hero Ch 2

By: David Ballway

Within a few hours David was on his way to Florida's Kennedy's Space Port to hitch a ride on a shuttle. He was feeling sick from battle and actually going into space. While thinking to himself, "No turning back now. I hope I can do this." On the speaker in the shuttle "T-minus ten, nine, eight, seven, six," Huston said as the engines roar as the shuttle shakes "five, four, three, two, one and we are go for launch." The shuttle takes off heading for space so David can get the Zord.

Meanwhile the Darius' ship detected the Zord arrival into this Universe. "Blast it those two are a thorn in my side again but it wont stop my plans David Ballway will die," he said as he looked out into space from the bridge. "But even if he gets the Zord he wont have time to master it before he has to go into combat, "Darius laughed as "Sgt at arms have a 3 squadrons of Skull Snake Fighter ready to attack the Earth in the Los Angeles Area." One of the Snakemen relays the orders for the Fighters to ready.

Elsewhere the shuttle carrying David to the Zord was with in 200 meters and closing, as David was getting ready to leave the shuttle in a space suit with every second David was getting nervous. "Okay I am ready open Shuttle bay doors, "David said as the crew opened the doors of the bay. Using the MMU he heads to the capsule. About 3 minutes later he grabs hold of the capsule and looks for the keypad to unlock the outer shell so he can get into the cockpit of the massive machine.

"There it is," he said as he punches in the numbers as the outer shell detaches from the Zord. David detaches the MMU from himself as he then slides into the cockpit. The Hatch closes behind him as he see the remote wrist unit as he pushes a few buttons the computer systems start up as the screens displays everything as Oxygen starts to full the cockpit. David takes the suit off. "Okay now lets see if I can pilot this thing," He said just as Jemnai's message came on the main screen.

Message: Greetings David you are now wondering how to pilot this zord well if you remember how Heero piloted Wing Zero then that is great but if not let me get you set up that and this has the Zero System. The message went on explaining how to pilot it and how to use the wrist remote. Good luck David. The message ended.

"Well now back to Earth," he said as he takes off heading for Earth. Just then Darius' ship detected the zord heading for Earth. "Send the fighters out now," Darius yelled as forty jet-like craft head to Los Angeles as they start to attack everywhere. On the scanners in the cockpit of the zord lit up like a fuckin Christmas tree as it picked up the Earth bound alien MIGs. "Lets see what this baby can do," David yelled as he put the thruster into over drive within two minutes David was with in Earth's atmosphere on a course for Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, the fighters started to blast the harbors and several of the skyscrapers one being the Saban building. In the cockpit David had music playing sort of like in Iron Eagle. David gets two of the craft in his sites as he use the Buster Rifle on them, which blow them up. One by one David was mastering the controls and taking out the crafts. "Okay last one," he said as he pulls out the beam saber and slashes at the last of the craft destroying it. "Very impressive," Darius said to himself as David headed back home.
