Sage Lightrunner: "That's our queue! Specter eight, cover us from the air, three and five head over to that small one right in front of you, and enter through the North entry point. Twelve you come with me."
They dove down onto the smaller black disk, though now seen up close, it seemed much more jagged and detailed than it had when looking from the sky above. He and Lightrunner wove in and out of large spires and overhangs. A few Orcas were following, six of them, occasionally firing at an overhang just as they passed under it, hoping to crush them. The enemy pilots seemed unafraid of harming their own device. Soon, they had arrived at their point of entry, and flew straight down, parallel to the deadly green ray emitted from the depths. Down on the planet surface, J-Dude and the others seemed disturbed.
J-Dude: "Aghh. It's closing on us too fast! Kamehameha waves on three! One, two three!"
All: "KAMEHAMEHA!"
The blue beam rocketed upward, striking the shell, and causing it to ripple slightly. The concentration did indeed slow down, but for how long was the question.
Jason and Lightrunner made their way through the green glowing innards of the disk, occasionally having to turn quickly because of unfinished catwalks and pipes. They had run into nothing for a while, the silence unnerving. In fact, Jason felt that he would have felt calmer if he were being shot at in here than to just sit here floating down this strange corridor. The silence was broken by the sound of their communicators as the other fighters reported status.
Specter Five: "Specter One, we were ambushed by those ships in the beam shaft, we had to abort. It's up to you guys now."
Sage Lightrunner: "I hear you. Just see what you can do about the rest of those fighters."
Now the pressure was really getting to Jason. This whole thing seemed designed to lull him into a false sense of security, a psychological booby-trap. Once again, the communicator sounded.
General: "Lightrunner, you need to move it fast! That weapon has almost reached the hundred-foot level. Any lower and we'll be forced to deploy the pulse magnet."
Sage Lightrunner: "And that is not an option. Twelve, hit it to full throttle!"
The two fighters raced down at top speed, not slowing down for anything. Soon enough, they had followed the beam to a huge room, easily maneuverable, where a gigantic crystal was focusing the green beams of energy down four identical corridors, one of them being the one they had just came from. Sage being in the lead had fired blaster bolts from his cannons. They ricocheted off, hissing in violent red sparks.
Sage Lightrunner: "Ahh! It's magnetically shielded! Not even our missiles can get through that. We have to abort."
But Jason had an idea.
Jason: "Just head out of here as quick as you can! I'll take care of it!"
General: "Are you people sure we have to do this?"
Inside the Revolutionary headquarters, inside a council room, many people seem to have come to a decision.
Official: "We don't have a choice. From what we can tell, one of the two remaining fighters in the weapon has backed off, and so far, no signs of damage have been found. Our only choice is to fire it. If we go, they go."
General: "Yes, but think of the death toll!"
Official: "That weapon is bearing down at us from past the hundred foot mark. I'd rather die from our weapon than suffer theirs."
General: "I never thought it would come to this."
The general lifted a glass tab, and pressed a button labeled, "for intense emergency only". Outside, the Kamehameha waves slowly weakened as their energy became spent.
Eddy: "Well, it's been nice knowing ya' guys."
The deadly green shell had almost reached the top of the base. In a matter of seconds, the very roof was burnt off, the terrified people beneath howling in fright.
Jason flew full throttle straight at the crystal, and set it to cruise control. He flared his energy, and quickly yelled turning himself once again into a Super Saiyan. He put his hands to the dashboard, and began to thrust himself forward, causing the very ship he was in to fly at an incredible rate straight at the crystal.
Jason: "I had three paths to choose from Max, and I chose my own path!"
Jason took an enormous gulp of air, and broke open the windshield, flying as fast as he could in the direction that Sage had flown. There was no immediate explosion, but the crystal had been badly damaged by the crashing Spitfire, and the green energy beam began to split into several beams and moved swiftly, melting almost the entire disk into several finely cut pieces. Eventually, the lasers had struck the liquid fuel injectors, and detonated it at once, as an angry fireball erupted from the center. Jason saw Sage's ship ahead, and grabbed onto it, supercharging its speed and helping to escape the firestorm licking at their heels. Finally, they saw the end, and blasted through, though now almost fully engulfed by the fires. They at last, blew through the opening, the fire stopping when it hit the space, but only shortly, as a staggering explosion ripped the remains of the disk apart. Jason didn't look back, but still raced through to the atmosphere taking a much-needed breath of air. Without all the required disks, each one was continually overwhelmed by the surplus energy it had to manage. Soon, they were exploding at a rate of one every two seconds. Eventually, with a hissing sound like a balloon with air being let out, the main disk exploded, causing the green shell of energy, which was only just descending upon the base, to dissipate at once. Noticing the lack of green light, the people who had been hiding in the hopes of lasting as long as possible, looked up. A huge round of cheers filled the Delomaaran skies, and the Eds and J-Dude whooped in disbelief. J-Dude hailed the base on his communicator. Jason had just returned, yelling with them in celebration.
