Capital of Xadia
"THE MISSION WAS UNAUTHORIZED!" Pentecost said.
"Only because we could save them!" Chuck said.
"That doesn't dismiss that pilot, what you did was put all the other pilots at risk." Pentecost said. "What if you got captured as well?"
"Then we would have fought our way out sir." Raleigh said.
"You would have died there and nobody could pilot the jaegers!" Pentecost said.
"Even though it was unauthorized it was necessary to save them with the princes, they are the rightful rulers to Katolis." Rayla said.
"Da, why punish us for doing right thing?" Sasha said.
"It may have been the right thing to do, but since you disobeyed orders you'll be confined to the library unless there is another kaiju attack." Pentecost said.
"You can't keep us locked up here!" Raleigh said.
"Yes I ca-" Pentecost then froze and fell to the floor. She started to foam at the mouth and shaking around like a fish. The other pilots then jumped from their seats and ran toward Pentecost. Onya was shocked by what happened, she didn't know what was going on with the major.
"What's going on?" Onya said.
"He's having a seizure, it's being caused by his radiation poisoning!" Mako said.
Onya was shocked that the major had radiation poisoning. She tested the pilots for any and all symptoms of piloting a jaeger. She then ran and got a stretcher to put the major on. After they put Pentecost on the stretcher they rushed him to the medical ward and used an Elven spell to help him recover. After a few hours the major woke up and wasn't able to move or speak. Mako walked up to him and gave him a hug, she told him what had happened and Onya was working on a cure for his poisoning. She stayed a little longer and stayed with him over night. For several stressful hours Onya worked non-stop trying to find a way to help Pentecost.
She tried everything from Wild Dark Vine to even the Dragon Queens scales. Onya couldn't find anything however, but she persisted none the less. After a few more tests with Pentecosts blood she found that a Jadova Sphere and Colocus Vine mixed together could clear away the radiation. She did a few more test to see i fit would actually work. After morning came Onya gave Pentecost the cure, before long he was able to get back on his feet and walk again. Onya looked him over and saw that the cure got rid of his sickness. She told him to lay off of working until the cure was complete. Pentecost then thanked Onya for her work but told her that his order was to still be taken. He left for Earth to rest while Mako was still worried about him.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Onya said.
"He won't be, he's in much pain." Mako said.
"How so?" Onya said.
"Before saving me he had a son, and he feels guilty for making me his priority over his own son." Mako said.
"Why would he do that?" Onya said.
"He thought that his son would be fine for a few years without him so he could do his job, but now he wishes that he could take it back." Mako said.
"Oh, then how do you feel?" Onya said.
"I also feel guilty for it, I took away his bond with his son and he can never get it back." Mako then fell to the floor and started to cry. Onya then comforted her and talk her that she should talk to him. Mako then stopped crying and hugged Onya, saying that she will do her best. She then got up and went to the TBCC, the Trans-Breach Communications Computer.
Sacred Library Halls
Abby was in a sour mood after Pentecost grounded the pilots from leaving the library. But she knew that he was being protective of them and wanted to keep them alive. After walking through the halls for a while she was in front of Xaras door. She knocked to see if anyone was in the room. She did this due to her having to give any pilot that wasn't at the meeting a rundown of what was happening. After nobody answered she thought she could leave the notepad on Xaras desk and she would read it when she got back. She opened the door and dropped the notepad after seeing Xara and Anthony in bed, under the covers, naked.
"WHAT IS GOING ON!" Abby yelled.
"Hey, do you know when to knock!?" Anthony said covering Xara and himself with the covers.
"I DID, NOW TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!" Abby yelled again.
"Well what do you think, I was showing Anthony a good time." Xara said.
"ISN'T HE SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE MEDICAL WARD!" Abby yelled.
"As you can see i'm fully healed, now can you leave please?" Anthony said.
Abby then threw the notepad at Anthony's head slammed the door leaving the room. Anthony picked up the notepad and read it with Xara, they were shocked that they were suspended from leaving the library. Then they read that the major had a seizure, but soon recovered and left for Earth.
"Well, we're gonna be here for a while." Anthony said.
"You know what that means, don't you." Xara said with a seductive grin.
"More treats?" Anthony said.
"Yep, now let's continue where we left off." Xara said kissing Anthony.
Break Room
"And they were doing it?" Aleksis said.
"Yes, right in front of me." Abby said.
"Well good for them, they did need a break." Chuck said.
"Yeah, and why are you so worried anyways, seems hypocritical of you." Raleigh said.
"I don't want to drift with him and see all that." Abby said.
"Ni kan daole tamen shi shenme zuo shenme haoshi?" Cheung Wei said jokingly.
"No, and I don't want to know." Abby said.
"Leave them alone, comrad Anthony and Xara are adults." Sasha said.
"I know, but you seeing the person you grew up with like that is disturbing." Abby said. "Fine, i'll think of something else."
"Good, now can we get back to our game." Callum said.
Amaya signed. "I still don't trust him after he killed Gren." The Translator said.
"Gren wasn't there when we attacked." Callum said.
Amaya then signed with such a fast speed that the translator couldn't keep up. "Viren lied to me about that, then me must be alive." The Translator said.
"We don't know that at all, but at least you are optimistic." Abby said. Amaya then sent a death glare at Abby and turned to play the game.
"Now then, does anyone have a five?" Chuck said.
"Go fish." Rayla said.
Oblivion Bay
Pentecost was looking toward all the scrap metal that used to be great jaegers. He was staring at one in particular, Coyote Tango. His once great jaeger was now no more than a pile of wires and circuit boards. He then looked at all the others remembering all the pilots that gave their lives to save Earth. He felt a tap on his shoulder and turned to see Onya.
"What is it doctor?" Pentecost said.
"I'm not a doctor, i'm a librarian." Onya said. "I'm here to see if the cure is working."
"It's working, there's another reason why your here isn't there." Pentecost said.
"Yes, I take it you already talked to Mako?" Onya said.
"Yes I have, now that i've made peace with that now I can return to my son and actually be a father." Pentecost said.
"What about your wife?" Onya said.
"She died when the kaiju attacked, he lives with his aunt, my sister in law." Pentecost said.
"Oh, i'm sorry for your loss." Onya said.
"We all have to move on at some point." Pentecost said.
"Are those jaegers?" Onya said pointing at the giant destroyed mechs.
"Yes, and this is their grave sight, Oblivion Bay." Pentecost said.
"Oh, which one is yours?" Onya said.
"That one on the left, that is Coyote Tango." Pentecost said.
"Oh, how was it destroyed?" Onya said.
"The initial story was that it was destroyed defending Hawaii, but in truth it was dismantled after one of my missions." Pentecost said.
"Why would they do that?" Onya said.
"So it would go down a hero instead of a useless machine." Pentecost said.
"I-I've been going through the data on the dark kaiju and found something." Onya said.
"What is it?" Pentecost said.
"It's a frequency of some kind, But it's not coming from Viren or Katolis." Onya said. "I think the Precursors are behind this."
"They must be thinking of something big, we need to get ready for it." Pentecost said.
"And I think I know the perfect defense." Onya said pointing at the destroyed jaegers.
"I was thinking the same thing." Pentecost said with a grin.
Kingdom of Katolis
Viren was in the dungeon with the mirror. He waited for Aavaros to show, but he didn't come at all. After a few hours he felt tired and was about to leave the room until he heard a voice. "Viren, where are you, Viren!"
He turned and saw a phantom image of the Grand Priest. "How may I help you?" Viren said.
"The humans have discovered what we are planning, you must stop them, we're not ready yet." The Grand Priest said.
"I am working on it, the army i'm making will be enough to stop them." Viren said.
"Enough isn't enough, we need that army now!" The Grand Priest yelled.
"It will be made, just give me a day or two." Viren said.
"Very well, but if it doesn't work then we'll have to do it ourselves." The grand Priest then phased away back into the Antevers.
The mirror then started to glow and Aavaros appeared. "You know if you keep down this path then you will die."
"That is none of your concern, i'm doing this for all the kingdoms, for humanity!" Viren said.
"There are other solutions to this, but this isn't going to work at all." Aavaros said. "Break me out of this mirror and I can end the threat."
"No, i've come so close to this and I will not be talked down to by an Elf that got trapped in a mirror!" Viren then picked up a chair and smashed the mirror into many pieces. He then left to create his army and attack Xadia once again."
Capital of Xadia, Sacred Library
*All pilots to your jaegers, there are multiple dark kaiju reading coming from the west, this is not a drill!* The announcer said.
The pilots got to their jaegers and were ready to deploy. "Alright guys and gals, let's show them who's boss." Anthony said.
*Amen to that brother.* Markus said.
"I don't feel comfortable with this."Abby said.
"Why, we do this all the time." Anthony said.
*She doesn't want to see you and Xara getting it on in the drift.* Chuck said with a laugh.
"Wait, you told them!" Anthony said.
*Da, every detail comrad.* Sasha said. *I wish I was there to see it.*
"Trust me, you wouldn't." Abby said.
"Abby, when we get back we're gonna have a talk about privacy." Anthony said.
*Yeah.* Xara said.
"Let's just go." Abby said. After launching they went to the outskirts of the city and waited for the kaiju there. Before long they saw a large dark smoke like cloud about a mile long from side to side.
"Hey, how many kaiju are there again." Abby said.
*About forty kaiju signals.* The announcer said.
"D-did you just say forty kaiju." Abby said.
"And how many are there of us?" Anthony said.
"Seven of us." Abby said.
"Yo, Wei triplets, can you give us a number crunch real quick?" Anthony said.
*Shi* Cheung Wei said. After a few seconds the numbers came in, and they were not good.
"What are the numbers?" Abby said.
"I'm coming up with 32.33, repeating of course, percentage of survival." Anthony said. There was a silence for what felt like an eternity.
*Well, we're screwed.* Katie said.
*No you're not pilots.* Pentecost then spoke from the mic.
*Major, what are you doing here?* Raleigh said.
*Bringing backup, turn around.* Pentecost said.
All the jaegers turned to see twenty jaegers coming in for drop. All the pilots knew, except the pilots of Violet Thunder, who those jaegers were. Every mark 1-4 jaeger that was destroyed was brought back to life. Tacit Ronin, Romeo Blue, Horizon Brave, Brawler Yukon, Vulcan Specter, Echo Saber, and many more jaegers were back and running. The jaegers then dropped and joined up with the other jaegers.
"Sir, how did you do this?" Abby said.
*That isn't important right now, what you should be worrying about is the defence of the city.* Pentecost said.
*Good to see you back in a jaeger sensei.* Mako said.
*I'm here to Mako.* jake Pentecost, son of Major pentecost said.
*jackson, it's good to see you.* Mako said.
"Okay, let's stop the formalities, we have a battle to win." Abby said.
"Let's go!" Anthony said. All the jaegers started to charge at the dark kaijus and were ready for the fight ahead.
