Chapter Six: Fighting for Freedom and slagging Cylons
Tell me why you're here
You could walk away right now
No one would stop you
Your free to choose your own way
The First Group leaped into the New Caprica System Pegasus and her group had wound up within the maximum range of the Cylon Basestars. The Cylons scrambled at the prospect of destroying the remaining Colonial forces although one particular Cylon, a Two known a Leoben felt as though it was a trap however his attempts to convince the others had failed due to Cavil's obsession with destroying the Humans. The First of the Raiders popped in on top of the seemingly defenseless civilian ships only to be destroyed by concentrated CIWS weapons fire, Pegasus deployed her entire compliment or Vipers, Raptors, and her new Moebius Units. Her escorts deployed their Mobile suits and brought their weapons to bare against the Cylons, theuir suits readying themselves for a fight.
Don't be afraid
It's just a choice you make it's alright
Questions remain
They will linger on like memories
The Second group arrived when the Cylons had deployed the vast majority of their Raiders to attack Pegasus' group which now proved to be a fatal mistake as the Gaian ships launched their Mobile Suits and Mobile Armors into the fray, then all hell broke loose as a group of Nazca's opened up on a Cylon Basestar from beyond the maximum Cylon range. Green beams of death struck the leading Basestar violently, gouging through armor and burning away electronics from inside the ship. Most organic Cylons winced as the Green Beams continued to tear through the Basestar until there was nothing but a ruined wreckage, Cavil however looked as if he had just been declared supreme ruler of the universe "We must capture one of those ships, its technology will be integrated into our own and when we locate their wor-" Cavil was cut short as a bulky looking ship unleashed a blast of red energy and simply cored a Basestar was ease. Things were becoming more and more deadly by the second, Cavil didn't know it but this battle was nothing compared to what was coming.

Someone else to run it for you

Three dozen Basestars flashed into existence as they entered the fray, the Cylons were forced to send a small group of three Basestars towards The Pegasus' group while the majority of their force went after Messiah's Task Force, within the main basestar Six's looked up in fear as she realized something was wrong and described it in one word "Galactica" she spoke out loud, Cavil looked at Six and his eyes widened as well "Frak" was the only thing he could say. As Galactica's group jumped into the fight and the old girl opened up on the sole Basestar orbiting the planet, Kinetic Energy Weapon shell struck the Basestar with a ferocious barrage. Archangel and one of her sister ship Gabriel began their descent into New Caprica's atmosphere accompanied by Minerva and Apollo
Kept your life to
Be somebody
Viper, Raptor, Moebius, Wingdam, Dagger, Zaku, and Gundam units flew in and out of combat. Starbuck cut through dozens of Raiders using her newly acquired Moebius Exus Mobile Armor; the Exus may have been larger then her Viper or a Raptor for that matter but it made up for that with Speed, Mobility and Firepower. Other pilots were enjoying using their Moebius units as well, they may have been bulky but they were still powerful and fast in their own right. Raiders swarmed in and only about a dozen made it through, only to be cut down by the ships. Galactica's mighty guns thundered and roared as more shells flew forwards, flak exploded amongst the raiders. The Silverlady's CIWS and Beam Cannons made short work of the Raiders, her Mobile suits unleashed hell upon their targets. Even Admiral Alexisson proved that he was deadly not only on his ship, but in his Mobile Suit as well. Hundreds of raiders fell prey to the Mobile Suits while very few of them were damaged by the Raiders.
Good to conquer evil
Lies to fight the truth
Are any of us only saints or sinners?
Or is it always red vs blue?
Pegasus's group was now locked in combat with their Cylon attackers, the lesser civilian ships made their jumps out of system but a few braver souls remained to help protect their battlestar defender. Raiders and heavy raiders fell prey to the CIWS systems of the civilian ships, the heavy raiders being able to take heavier beatings then their swifter brothers. Vipers darted in and out of dogfights while the Moebius units slugged it out with the Cylons, even the outdated Moebius Mobile Armors of the first Bloody Valentine were proving to be extremely deadly the Raiders. The gun launcher rail guns tore through Raiders like armor piercing bullets through tinfoil, the Raiders were even surprised when their Nukes failed to detonate when they struck Pegasus' hull.
Tell me why you're here
Do you even know yourself?
Do you belong here?
You don't fit anywhere else
Cavil was fuming as more Basestar's jumped in to replace those that had been lost, these interlopers were becoming a annoyance. He made a signal and five units jumped into the system, these units were different. Massive saucer hull based on the Basestars from the previous war but these ones had eight massive spire-like arms lancing out from main hull, the Mk II Attackstar was the Cylon's creation to take out any Colonial Heavy Capital ship be it an Assaultstar, a Carrierstar or a Warstar. But to bring these five Attackstars to fight a handful of annoyances? The others contemplated Cavil's sanity, integrity and state of mind. He was the most religious of the models, being he was based of a Colonial Priest but the Cylon collective must operate as one being not because Number One says so. Yet they did nothing to stop him.
Don't feel betrayed
Only we can wipe the slate clean
The Attackstars moved forwards and unleashed hundreds of missiles while opening up with it's own KEW turrets. The Result was having 1850mm Kinetic Energy Rounds tear through a Drake-class Escort, in an instant the attackstars were swarmed with Mobile Suits and Gundams trying to bring down the behemoth. Finally one Attackstar detonated as several ships fired the beam weapons and in the same attack one other Attackstar was crippled. The Battle progressed slowly as the three remaining Attackstars and a dozen Basestars fought the Gaian fleet for dominance and despite the cylons having quanity on their side, the Gaians had quality on theirs.
Does it even matter?
Only matters that were here
Archangel, Gabriel, Minerva and Apollo made their descents into the atmosphere of New Caprica. Upon making it through the barrier the four ship spread out and launched their Mobile suits and Gundams. Strike Freedom, Infinite Justice, Ultimate Duel, Eternal Buster and Akatsuki launched from the Archangel while Legend, Destiny and Impulse launched from the Minerva. Soon the sky surrounding the four ships was filled with ZAKU, Murasame and the occasional GuAIZ. The suits were some joined by Raptors and Vipers, while Galactica made her jump out of her 'crazy brick' descent. It was then that the liberation began, Vipers and Raptors attacked the Cylon facilities. The Mobile suits and Gundams protected the civilian ships from destruction by shooting down any cylon or strafing the ground and driving off the centurions.

Tigh lead the other members of the resistance out of their prisons as they fought their way to the ships, when the colonial saw the Mobile suits their hopes dropped until they witnessed the massive mono-eye ZAKU shoot down a Raider. The Cylons were now fighting a losing battle on the surface, while the civilian were making it back to their ships. Raiders swooped in to take out the Civilians before they left, only to be brought down by Vipers and the CIWS systems of the four ships. The Civilian Fleet had finally left the surface and began jumping away once they received the rendevous coordinates. The Mobile suits managed to get back on to their assigned ships, some carrying their damaged comrades or a down Colonial craft. Soon the four Gaian ships jumped away. The Fleet in orbit was wrapping up as yet another Attackstar exploded and more Basestars were reduced to scrap metal, Cavil was furious. His anger radiated from ever pore of his being, these mere mortals dared to defy their God? God demanded the death of all humans and if he had to destroy half the universe to do so, then so be it.
Kept your life to
One by one the fleet began jumping away, Pegasus's group was gone in mere minutes after collecting all of their craft and mobile suits. Galactica and the remaining members of her group leaped away once they had picked up their Pilots. Messiah's escorts leaped away one by one until all that remained was the Battlestation MESSIAH, Durandel looked out at the remaining Cylons before giving the signal and the massive station leaped away at last. Cavil was outraged that not only did these human escape with minor damage and only a few destroyed craft but he had also lost three of his Attackstars "As of now, no humans will be spared and their worlds shall burn like our god has demanded of it" Cavil declared "Burn the foul contamination remaining on this pitiful rock". The Battle for New Caprica was over once the remaining cylons Nuked the world once known as New Caprica to oblivion, as a warning of sorts that no world would be spared.

If the cylons had been focused on their Dradis screens they would have seen a anomaly, this anomaly was a Fighter-like Craft the size of a mid sized freighter. This craft was S2-00102, other wise known as the Stalker Mark Two Stealthstar Gunship Prey or Hunter. An elderly man smiled at the battle he had witnessed "I see you survived after all Bill, I hope my Grandson is doing well" the man spoke as he signaled to his pilots, a pair of T-05 Original Cylons "Lets go home boys, we have a welcoming party to arrange". "By your -" the Cylon began only to be interrupted by the man "If you even think of saying Command I will transfer your mind over to the Garbage Transports Mainframe again". The Cylon nodded "Yes sir, Admiral" it replied, the Man also known as Admiral Zeus Avalonia smirked "Homewards" was all he had to say as the Stalker jumped away from the New Caprica system.
Not too far from where the Stalker had laid, an old Viper mark I watched the Stalker Jump away. The heavy set pilot chuckled "So not only is the Kid alive and well, but the Boss is alive as well" the man spoke as he inputted in the coordinates of his beloved Athena. "Looks like the Corps are reuniting after all" the man, Colonel Ronald Pinterton said as his Viper jumped away from the scene.
