It's time to get to the action.

Chapter 5: A New Enemy
After two weeks of enduring different kinds of training, Timmy, Tootie, and Sovia had a week to themselves before landing on Mobius Prime. T.J. thought it was amazing that they had learned 8 weeks worth of training in just 2. What he didn't know is that Timmy had wished for them to already know everything they were training already. That was the only big wish he could wish for, and he was glad he did, the training would have been much harder. They were awarded with honorary crew badges and were given their positions. Sovia was early warning group sniper, and hydrokinesis master. Tootie was electrician, team communications expert, cryokinesis master. Timmy was engineer, crew demolitions expert, and electrokinesis master. T.J., of course, was captain and infiltration specialist. He was master of all kinesis, except telekinesis. Each member of the crew were given 3 types of gunships. One was an F-22 design based fighter, one was an F-35 design based bomber, and the other was an Arwing. according to T.J., the Arwings were given to him by a friend, another Smash Brother.
T.J. was patroling in his F-22 design based gunship looking for possble incoming enemies. Timmy was spending his time with Tootie, on the flight deck. Sovia was getting ready for T.J. to get done with his patrol. Speedy was eating...again.
"T.J. here, no bad guys on the scope, returning to the Carrier", T.J. called over the C.O.M.S. He turned his gunship around and landed in the armory. As he jumped from his ship, Sovia greeted him.
"Hey", she said.
"Hey, why the dress", he asked.
She turned red from embarrassment or anger he didn't know. She sighed.
"Don't tell me you forgot", she said. She wouldn't be surprised if he did, but wouldn't blame him, the stress of finding out the World of Trophies destroyed was eating him alive. She couldn't imagine what he would do to the one responsible.
T.J. thought hard, "Um...refresh my memory again", he said after failing.
"Today was the day you agreed to go on a double date with Tootie, Timmy, and me", she reminded.
"Oh, yeah", he said not remembering a word of what she said.
After he put his gunship correctly in the hanger, the two started toward the flight deck. When they got there, an alarm sounded.
"Sir, unidentified spacecraft had just entered our radar space", J.E.E.V.E.S. anounced
"Can you get a lock on their position", T.J. asked, now in the pilot's seat.
"Three miles out 8'o clock high"
"Timmy, Tootie, go and intercept them, I'll meet you in the hanger", they warped to the hanger, " Sovia stay here and if those bogeys break a one mile radius, engage the Carrier's defensive S.A.M.S. and laser cannons", he said before warping to the hanger.
In the hanger, Timmy and Tootie were already in their F-22's T.J. rushed back into his. When the three were aligned to launch they heard Sovia say, "Timmy, Tootie, T.J., you are cleared for emergency launch, opening hanger doors now."
In front of them, the hanger doors opened. They fired their afterburners and in three seconds were in space toward the oncoming spacecraft.
"You two don't fire without my permission or unless fired upon, I want to see if they're hostile or not", T.J. instructed.
"Alright", Tootie reply, on his right wing.
"Okay", Timmy said, on his left, Timmy looked at the pink and green buttons. Cosmo and Wanda were worried, this was Timmy's first time in actual combat.
"J.E.E.V.E.S., how far out are they", T.J. asked, so he could be ready.
"One mile of your position closing fast, they should be on your radar any minute now", he responded.
"Okay...wait there they are", T.J. said, looking at several dots on his radar screen, "counting five."
"They're flying really close there could be more, be advised", Sovia said over the C.O.M.S.
"I can see them", Tootie said.
"Do not fire", T.J. said opening, all radio frequencies, "this is captain T.J. of the Smash Carrier, you've entered our radar space. You are going to have to come back with us for questioning."
"Surrender your ship and equipment to the Meterex army and you will not be destroyed", a deep, dark voice came from one of the ships.
"They've got me locked up", Timmy said.
"They've got all of us locked up", T.J. corrected, checking the heat signatures, "You are cleared to enganged, I repeat you are cleared to engange, scatter!"
Thay all went they're seperate ways. T.J. climbed, Timmy broke left, and Tootie broke right. The enemy gunships went after them. T.J. managed to get behind one, and was trying to get a missile lock. Two were behind Timmy, who was trying to shake them. Tootie was behind them trying to get a missile lock while trying to shake the one behind her.
"I've got a lock, firing", T.J. said. Two missiles launched from the missile bay in the ship.
"Hit, target destroyed", his missile tracking system said.
"Their armor is weak, be advised", T.J. said after blowing his target away.
"They have me locked they're going to fire, they're going to fire", Timmy panicked.
"Timmy, break right", Tootie said with a solid lock. Tootie fired and hit, leaving three.
"Incoming missile, deploy flares", T.K. said. Tootie disengaged the other one in front of her to evade the missile.
"Tootie", Timmy yelled, no longer panicking. He was going after the missile. He finally shot it to pieces.
The one that Tootie disenganged and the one that was behind her were now behind T.J. Well, well, well he, thought smiling Whatever will I do. He hit his brake thrusters the ships flew by and he missile locked both of them. He fired.
"Missile kill", the missile tracker announced.
"Is that all off them", Timmy said on Tootie's right wing.
"I thought you said five, T.J., that was only four", Tootie pointed out.
"Everyone keep your eyes peeled, this one just went off radar", T.J. said. They all looked out of their F-22's.
"There he is, 3'o clock high", Timmy said.
"I got him", Tootie said breaking off, Timmy right behind her. T.J. was moving in to assist, when a beam of light flew past him and obliterated the last enemy.
"What was that",T.J. asked looking behind him.
"Sorry you guys, I got bored", they heard Sovia say. She was on the long range sniper beam cannon.
"You saved us a couple of missiles", T.J. said, "everyone get back to the Carrier."
In the hanger, everyone was climbing out of their ships.
"J.E.E.V.E.S., were you able to scan those things", T.J. asked his C.O.M.S.
"Yes, sir, they were light interception gunships, class and enemy type unknown", he replied.
"Well they weren't Shadows", T.J. said, wondering what the Meterex Army is.
"Speaking of Shadows, ever since you found the World of Trophies, we haven't seen one, do you think they're connected", Tootie asked.
"I wouldn't doubt it, hey Timmy are you going to be okay, you panicked up there", T.J. said, walking to Timmy.
"Yeah, just a little shaken", he replied. Tootie walked over to Timmy.
"Timmy, you saved me", she said dreamily.
"Yeah, well I can't let anything happen to you", he said. With that she leaned closer and kissed him lightly on the cheek, making him blush madly.
T.J. smiled, "I'll leave you love birds alone. I have my own love bird to talk to."
Sovia was waiting for T.J. back on the flight deck. He warped to the deck and she confronted him with a big hug.
"You're okay", she said.
"Yep"
Longest chapter yet right, I know. But at least the action is starting.
