Chapter 2

The Attack

Hawke paced back and forth, thinking of his plan. Lash barged in and yelled, "Hawke, there's a party at E-3, do you wanna come?"

Hawke replied, "No thanks, I'm thinking of how to invade the Blue Moon. Collin and Sasha will be easy to defeat, but Olaf and Grit are a handful. Any second opinions?"

Lash shrugged and said, "We could all go against Blue Moon."

But Hawke didn't think that would be a good idea. He simply said, "But remember, the Allied Nation will help."

"Oh well, we could always get more recruits." Lash said smartly.

"That's a good idea, Lash. I need the pictures and descriptions of the people wanting to be part of Black Hole," he replied.

Lash frowned. "Right now or after the party?"

Hawke replied, "Right now. It won't take a minute. Just take the papers out of the folder there."

Lash pulled out the folder and set it on Hawke's table. She sprinted for the door and quickly said, "Bye!" before Hawke could say anything else.

Hawke was still looking at the COs when the party was over. Aqua and Vortex came in and sat down. They waited for 2 minutes before Aqua finally said, "Hey Hawke, do you need any help?"

Hawke replied, "I chose these COs from the descriptions and their pictures. Will you go back and see if you like them to be part of Black Hole?"

Aqua and Vortex nodded and took a picture and their descriptions and read them. Aqua read it and said to Vortex, "Check this Forsh guy out. His CO power is Potion. It restores 3 health of his troops. His Super CO power is Cure. It restores all of his troops' health, restores the ammo, fuel, and powers them up. He likes to help and he hates bananas. I like him, he'll be our healer, you know?"

Vortex simply said, "He's good. Now this CO is interesting. Leon, his CO power is Cloud 9. It increases or decreases the Attack of his troops. His Super CO power is Lightning 16. It greatly increases attack power, but it decreases defense. He likes vehicles and he hates yogurt. He's good, we take him."

Hawke thought that both were good. Lash and Lunar went in as soon as Vortex finished.

Hawke said to Lash and Lunar, "We're deciding who should be part of Black Hole with us. Would you like to help me choose? I put them to the side, if you want to look at them."

Lunar smiled and replied, "Thanks, I'd love to do that."

She picked 1 up and said, "Hmm…Josh… his CO power is Rock Smash. It increases his troops defense and causes 1 damage to his opponent and decreases his opponent's defense. Super CO power is Meteor Rocks. It increases his troops defense and attack while causing 2 damage to your opponent. It decreases your opponent's defense and attack. Awesome! I think he'll be a good help when we're surrounded or defending."

Now Lash spoke. "Flowe, her CO power is Flower Field. It increases her troops and increases her movement by 1. Her Super CO Power is Flower Power. It greatly increases her troops power if they're on a forest or plains. Her counterattack is more powerful than usual, and her movement is increased by 3. She likes flowers and she hates fire. She's good!"

A soldier suddenly burst into the room, panting heavily. "Sir! We're under attack!" he cried.

"We must defend. Who is attacking us?" Hawke replied.

"Sir, it is Koal and Kindle. They came back for revenge!" The soldier yelled.

Hawke got irritated. Lash got steamed. Aqua, Vortex, and Lunar were confused. Hawke said to Aqua and Vortex, "You guys, I want to see how well you do. Go and defend this place. Aqua will take the left and Vortex will take the right. Go now!"

Lash yelled, "What about me? I want revenge!"

Hawke replied, "No, it's their job now."

Aqua and Vortex are at the field, confused. There were 3 tanks, 2 Medium tanks, 3 Artilleries, 1 Rocket, 2 infantry, and 3 Mechs.

Aqua said, "I'll take this side, you take the other."

Vortex nodded and took off. Aqua saw 5 tanks coming toward him. His 3 artilleries and Rocket fired at the incoming tanks. About 2 tanks survived and Aqua's tanks took them out. Now he saw 2 Neotanks coming. His artilleries fired at it, but they soon ran out of ammo. The Rocket fired its last rocket and destroyed a Neotank. The Neotank fired and destroyed all Aqua's artilleries. Now Aqua used his Super CO power, Rain Dance. The Neotank was weakened all of a sudden. Aqua's Medium Tank fired at the Neotank and it was destroyed. Now that Aqua won, he ran with his tanks to where Vortex was. Kindle got in his way and yelled, "You destroyed my beauty! I won't forgive you!" and she ran away. Aqua was still puzzled. /What's up with her/ He didn't know, but he knew Vortex needed help.

Vortex was in a pickle. He only had 2 tanks, 1 artillery, 1 Megatank (which, unfortunately, was depleted of ammo), 4 Mechs, and an APC, which was far away. Vortex was near the ocean and he knew that if any of the enemy tanks were near the ocean, it would die because of his Super CO Power he was saving. Vortex saw a Medium tank coming at him with full speed. His artillery fired at the medium tank, but the medium tank didn't even flinch. Now Vortex's APC came running at his Megatank, but it was still far away. Vortex didn't know what to do, so he did his Super CO Power, Hurricane. The Medium Tank took the damage hard, but it still kept on going. So Vortex's tank fired at the Medium tank, which blew up. Now Koal sent all his tanks towards Vortex. Vortex knew he was done, until his APC came towards the Megatank and restored the ammo. Now he knew he would win. He waited for a long time and when the time was right, he fired. Now this was going on for about 10 minutes when Aqua's tanks came and helped Vortex. Vortex thanked Aqua by nodding. Now Koal was finished. Koal ran away, but a slip fell out. Aqua ran and picked up the slip. It said, "Toward the under". Aqua didn't know what it meant, but he felt good that he won. He returned back to base with Vortex…

How did you like it? I know, I know, too many COs, but It'll be interesting. Very soon...
