Kingdom hearts: Souls and steel

[Jayngfet]

Liberity prime stands tall, in an alternate universe alaska. Never touched by communists, giant robots sentient and walking(and transforming) around unseen by humans. It's like it's a world made for you. But you know it can't last. You've heard reports of increased attacks in this world by heartless. Larger monsters OF DARKNESS breaking through into this world.

You were sent here to fight, and fight here you shall. You've heard some sort of heartless is roaming the countryside here, immense and smashing apart everything it comes across.

You also have allies. Two being stand on either side of you, ironhide and sideswipe.

You can see the things trail clearly, flattened trees and a smashed house leading the way...

Tron and the SERVBOTS are with optimus prime, tracking another heartless a few miles away. This one flies through the air. You see it in the distance, it appears to have two large wings and a draconic figure. Optimus is on the roof of your ship, Ion rifle in hand.

Guy Shishoh and Jack Taurus awaken in what appears to be a futuristic medical bay. The walls are red, complimenting the white roof and floor. You're beds are next to one another. As you awaken you hear a voice between your beds

"LALI HO LADS, DIDN'T THINK YA'D WAKE UP FAR A MINUTE THERE" You see nothing before looking down and seeing a short figure, clad in thick wool and a pointed cap with a full beard and a sort of device in his hand. He lets out a hearty laugh as you look at him.

Dexter is also in Alaska, just behind liberty prime with the two transformers.

[Elagune]

Jack blinked as he stared into at the small figure in front of him. What was this thing? It didn't look like any sentient creature he had ever seen before, but it had spoken out. Rubbing his head, he groaned slightly as a wave of pain washed over him like surfers at Waikiki beach. He waited for the feeling to pass before looking at the little thing again.

"You... This is... Where am I?" asked Jack. "Last thing I remember - I was carried off into the darkness...?"

His heart leapt up into his esophagus. Was this the place? Was this where the Heartless came from? But... this place had none of that inky darkness that he felt from the Heartless - No. He had to -

Another wave of pain crashed over him, and he gripped his head tight.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

The Drache is flying over the ground, rather sluggish but holding steady. With Optimus on top and the Gustaf tank below, its close to its maximum load.

Number Fifteen sits at the controls of the small ship and keeps an eye on the radar as it spots the flying Heartless.

"I've got the Heartless on Radar Ms. Tron... its a big one." He says worryingly.

"The bigger they are, the easier they are to hit. Isn't that right, Mr. Optimus?" Number Ten says as he orients the sights on the Draches front plasma guns.

"Okay then, get a little closer and drop me off, we'll provide some ground support while you and Optimus take that guy in the air. That sound okay with you, Big Guy?"

She asks Optimus, she knows perfectly well that with the Gustaff hanging on then the Draches limited mobility would be even more hampered. She just hopes that Optimus up there knows how keep her ship from getting shot down... though Megaman back home had proven more than once that its possible for a weak vehicle to win in a fight if the gunner is good enough.

As they grow closer, she looks down for a nice spot to let go and drop to the ground, thereby freeing up the ship for the fight ahead.

[Jayngfet]

Jack

"HA HA, EASY BOY. I NEVER SEEN ANYONE HOLD OUT IN DARKNESS THAT LONG!"He laughs, throwing his head out "YER ABOARD THE STARVENGER, THA FASTEST MECHANIC SHIP EVER MADE. TAKE IT EASY, WE JUST PULLED YA OUT OF THE SHADOWY BRINK!"


Tronne

"Hold steady, I can hit him from here!"He fires a shot, it wobbles the entire ship a bit. The shot misses and the monster soars towards you with a cry of bloodlust.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots


As the shot rocks the ship and the giant Heartless flies towards the group, Tron lets go and drops to the ground below.

The drache suddenly lifts up from the lowered weight while the Gustaff Tank drops to the ground, flinging up dirt with the impact.

"Okay, I'll give you some covering fire and distract him from the Drache!" Tron tells Ten, Fifteen and Optimus as she targets the flying Heartless with her Plasma Cannon, firing off a stream of plasma bolts in front of the Heartless to veer it off course and then keep hitting it.

The Gustaff Tanks treads spin and kick up dirt as she heads towards the Heartless, firing to distract it and move it where Optimus can get a clear shot at it.

[Jayngfet]

Bullets and plasma blast at the heartless, , tearing more holes into it's wings(though this dowsn't slow it down). It swoops low and does a U turn, going faster than either vehicle for a bit before slowing down in the distance. Optimus prime's shots all either miss or do no apparent damage, as to the servbots' from this distance.

The ground begins shaking under Tron, that can't be good...

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Nice shooting, Ms. Tron." Number Ten says, as he tries to get a lock on the Heartless with the Draches guns.

Tron meanwhile drives chases after the flying dragon heartless... then feels the shaking.

"Somethings happening down here, the grounds shaking." Tron says, momentarily distracted but still heads toward the flying Heartless. It better not be something coming up from below... or if it is than that Optimus guy had better learn how to aim his gun.

She chases after the flying Heartless, maybe a Beacon Bomb will help them out once she gets in range to fire it.

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

"I'm... I'm safe?"

The town was wiped out... That was for sure. He had seen it all from the inside. No - No, he had no time to think about that for now. Breaking down was all nice and good but now was not the time to do it. He had to get a grip on his surroundings. Maybe not everything was lost yet. Maybe there were others that had survived the attack?

"Did... did anybody else make it? Did you find other people where I was?" asked Jack. His memory was fuzzy, but he could make out the crunches and the screams. The Heartless had dragged him into the void, but he remembered nothing afterwards.

Wait. How did he survive again?

The Heartless...

Inside?

Pure Umbra!

"Um - Hey! What happened to my robot?"

[Fan]

All systems online.

Liberty Prime lumbered upwards from his kneeling position, the whirring of motors, and the characteristic cackle of electricity as his fusion generator in his chest became fully active.


LIBERTY PRIME ONLINE. AUDIO INTIALIZATION TESTS COMPLETE. BEGINNING SEARCH OF COMMUNIST COMPOUND!"

He then lumbers forward through the path, the hum of his head mounted lasers ready to fire into any, and all communist threats when target has been aquired.

[Jayngfet]

Jack gets his answers "We dinnae get more than a few from either of yer worlds. Could be more somewhere, but not here." He shakes his head solemly "And all the machines we pulled out are fine. I ain't never seen anything like the two o yers!"

Tron Fires the beacon bombs. This helps the Servbots and Optimus shot down the heartless. The transformers Ion Rifle blows off a wing and the heartless goes plummeting into some trees a ways in the distance.

The rumbling however continues, not

Liberty Prime leads the autobots through the Alaskan countryside. You feel a rumbling in the distance, which in itself is ominous, let alone combined with the crushing noises of the heartless a short ways away crushing through trees callously.

Suddenly a nearby battle between allies and a draconic heartless takes an unexpected turn. The wounded monster goes down, trying in vain to stay aloft with a single intact wing as it crashlands nearby. Conveniently in the direction of your target.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Yay, we got it!" Number Ten cheers as they see the Heartless go down.

"Good going, but we've got a rumbling down here... pick me up and lets head after it. I don't know what this shaking is but lets keep in the air until we figure out whats causing it."

Tron has the Drache hover down so she can grab onto its 'handles' with the Gustaff Tank and they take off again. With the Beacon Bombs locked on the Heartless it should be a snap to track it down even in the forest.

"Optimus, do you have any idea is making the ground shake?"

[Fan]

"COMMUNIST THREAT DETECTED! ANALYZATION DETECTS SCIENTIFIC ABBERATION IN SIGHT! OBLITERATING!"

Liberty Prime then opened fire with it's twin head mounted lasers, and it's single eye laser firing in alterations of Bursts in the hotter blue color, and the cooler red in a rapid gatling series of attacks on the Draconic Heartless.

"COMMUNISM IS A LIE! CHAIRMEN CHENG WILL FAIL! CHINA WILL FALL!"

[Jayngfet]

Optimus has no clue as Tron sees Liberity Prime blast the falling heartless with lasers as it falls.

The heartless falls and crashes with a BOOM, and leaves a trail of smoke where it lands. The rumbling continues, and you also hear the sound of wood and trees snapping. It appears to be getting quite close.

[Fan]

"SEISMIC DISTURBANCE DETECTED! SCANNING FOR SOURCE!"

Liberty Prime then goes completely stiff, sticking his arms out in a wide arc as his eyes flash white, and his array of sensors took in the surrounding area... If there was so much as a minute crack in the crust beneath them causing this Earth quake... Liberty's sensors would find it.

[Jayngfet]

No crack, however...

The source reveals itself quickly, coming over a nearby hill and flattening any tree in it's way. An immense purple and black monster easily several meters taller than liberity prime.

http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/1/16/Joy_Rider.jpg

"Take cover!"Ironhide take several shots before diving out of the way. One hits one of the side rockets and causes it to swerve out of the way. The monster skids and swerves, just missing everyone but destroying dozens of trees as it regains it's composure behind you and sets itself up to steamroll you.

[Fan]

"SOURCE OF DISTURBANCE DETECTED! COMMUNIST ASSAULT VEHICLE. DUAL JET PROPULSION USING UNKNOWN POWER SOURCE, AND VARIATION PLASMA WEAPONRY! CHANCE OF MISSION COMPLICATION. ZERO!"

He then reaches into his back pack of mini nukes, taking one out, and grasping it like one would a foot ball.

Then, his targeting sensors began the calculations for the exact amount of newtonian force that would need to be exerted to hit it where the desire effect would be achieved.

Then, with a flash of red as his targeting sensors locked dead on to the flying creature, and he let the miniature nuclear device fly, soaring straight and true. (Sorry Organics, but the radiation is only bad at this size if your within 20 ft of the detonation...)

[Jayngfet]

Liberity Prime fires the mini nuke. It fires and sends the thing flying above your head.

You hear from it, in a sort of echo-y voice.

"YA HA HA, AWESOME!"

[Fan]

"COMMUNIST ASSAULT VEHICLE HAS TAKEN A ALTERED COURSE! ADAPTING!"

Liberty Prime then begans firing off his primary laser, and his gattling laser at the creature, spouting off more propaganda about how China is going to fall, and how Democracy is Victory!

[Jayngfet]

The vehicle crashes and splits open. From the cracks crawl out a multitude of shadow heartless, each not even higher than your foot. Your autobot allies open fire, blasting at the creatures, though there appear to be too many for just them.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Yikes! Is that what was causing it?" Tron is glad that she had gotten off of the ground in time... that thing looks like it would run over the Gustaff if it got the chance... actually, maybe she could build something like it.

"Okay, lets stay off the ground and fire at it from the air. I think that big guy down there has it under control... Liberty Prime, is it? Anyway, Servbots fire at that big rolling thing with the Drache and stay out of range of it."

"Yes, Ms. Tron!" The Servbots reply as they raise higher in the air and use their guns to fire at the big Heartless from a distance, staying out of its way and the line of fire of Liberty Prime.

[Fan]

"RED CHINESE ANAMOLOUS ASSAULT UNITS DETECTED! TACTICAL ASSESSMENT: NO VISABLE EQUIPMENT, OR ALTERATIONS DETECTED! CHANCE OF MISSION HINDRANCE ZERO!"

and more dakka is released in variants of red, and blue upon the poor, unsuspecting masses of the Shadows, Liberty Prime stomping on any who get through that hell storm combined with Optimus's own team's fire.

[Jayngfet]

The shadows are destroyed by the fire from Tron, Liberity Prime, and the autobots leaving amongst them a single glittering black shard, and you hear laughing rom inside the cracked hull and a figure steps out. It looks like a young man, fairly well muscled. It WOULD look like that if it wasn't all black with a pair of bright yellow glowing eyes.

"Looks like I need a new machine, and some more shadows. Don't worry, I'll be back" The figure speaks, followed by dissapearing in a shadowy nova, leaving only a few strands of darkness which fade a moment later.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"That was interesting." Tron says as she drops to the ground below. Looking at the wreckage, she spots the black shard.

"Number Two. Number Twenty Three. Go search the wreckage."

The top of the Gustaff opens up and the two Servbots pop out, running toward the wreckage to search for anything usable.

Tron turns to Liberty Prime, "Say there, you've got quite a punch. Did you notice anything left of that last Heartless... you know, that we could salvage for Capitalism?" she guesses that last statement from what she's assessed about Liberty Primes programming.

[Fan]

Tron and Servbots

"That was interesting." Tron says as she drops to the ground below. Looking at the wreckage, she spots the black shard.

"Number Two. Number Twenty Three. Go search the wreckage."

The top of the Gustaff opens up and the two Servbots pop out, running toward the wreckage to search for anything usable.

Tron turns to Liberty Prime, "Say there, you've got quite a punch. Did you notice anything left of that last Heartless... you know, that we could salvage for Capitalism?" she guesses that last statement from what she's assessed about Liberty Primes programming.

"REQUEST ACKNOWLEDGED. SCANNING WRECKAGE FOR SALVAGEABLE COMPONENTS!"'


Then his eyes flash like a set of old projector cameras, and flash over the wreckage, looking to see if the drives that were propelling it could be salvaged, and if anything else like that crystal would be useful.

[Jayngfet]

The shard looks like a black translucent five pointed star. It feels strangely light and heavy at the same time. It drags as if heavier than it's small almost clear shape suggests, but it feels almost ...empty?

Inside the wreckage you find another stone. This one is significantly larger, though a bit lighter. Like the first it's star shaped as well, but yellow. It tingles to the touch and a tendril of lightning seems to be sparking inside it.

Other than that everything is mostly wreckage, though the outside of it seems to be made of rubbery materials you have no knowledge of.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Looks good, bring those crystals back here... and maybe a piece of that rubbery stuff, maybe we can analyze it when we get back." Tron says.

The Servbots return to Tron and plop the salvaged good into the rear storage of the Gustaff Tank, the skull emblem on the back of the Mecha opens its 'mouth' and gulps up the items to store in the compartment.

The Drache hovers high into the air and turns around to scan the area for any signs of other Heartless in the area. Though if Optimus wants to get off then it would gladly land for him.

"Soo... anyone know who or what that Heartless guy was?" Tron asks, she's never seen evidence of an intelligent Heartless before and the idea of something like that with Brains didn't sit well with her.

[Jayngfet]

"I've never seen one of those things."Ironhide sounds as confused as you are, optimums shakes his head.

Your scans pick up a few flickers, but they go dark as heartless seem to flee.

[Fan]

"CO-OPTED ANALYSIS, LOGIC PROCESSORS DICTATE MUTATION IN FORM OF COMMUNIST CREATURE CAUSING GAIN OF FORMER INTELIGENCE POSSESSED BEFORE COMMUNIST EXPERIMENTATION. SECONDARY POINT: COMMUNISM IS DEATH! DEMOCRACY IS VICTORY!"

Liberty Prime seems to be finicky lately, but as he is completely capable of independent thought when it comes to tactics during a operation, I think it's fair that he's allowed this.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"I'n picking up a few blips on the scanner, Mr. Optimus. It looks like the remaining Heartless are retreating. Should we follow them?" Number Ten asks over the loudspeaker on the Drache, letting everyone present hear him.

Tron meanwhile drives toward the toppled forrest, Two and Twnty Three ride on the Gustaff Tanks shoulders as she checks the spot where Dragon Heartless fell. She also notices all the toppled trees.

"Such a waste... that Heartless thing trashed a forest for no good reason... such senceless envirionmental destruction."

...

"I wonder if we can sell them?" Tron asks as she looks at the toppled trees, she's not sure where the closest place she can sell them... or how to transport them. The drache could carry some if its not lugging the Gustaff Tank, and the Tank could carry some... and maybe she could convince the Autobots...

If she could only get the trees to a buyer before the cops showed up.

[Jayngfet]

Tron and Liberty Prime manage to take a few trees and a good sample along with the loot before the authorities arrive. After that you head back to a nearby military base. You're all there with a couple of other transformers. There's enough gear you're allowed to use to do some experiments. After your done with what you want a U.S. government representative would like to speak with you regarding the fleet that sent you to fight heartless.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

While the Servbots are busy running the tests and doing maintenance on the Gustaff Tank and Drache (and Number Twenty Three is cutting off the branches of the trees they salvaged for better transport and resale), Tron meets up with the military representative. Number Two cuts the Heartless material sample into pieces and runs some tests on one while offering the rest to any US or autobot scientists interested in it.

This is tricky, it looks like the military here is a bit lower-tech than we are, but they've got a whole lot of infrastructure and money... and its their home turf. Better keep on good terms with them until we can get a decent ship set up.

She looks at Liberty Prime.

Plus it looks like this guy is loyal to them... or maybe an alternate version of them or something. Yeah, stay on their good side.

"Hello Sir." Tron nods to the representative, ready to answer any questions that may arise.

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

"Alright, thanks," said Jack. There were other survivors? And Pure Umbra seemed to be alright... Maybe he should take a look around, gauge the situation for himself rather than be told everything by this complete stranger. "Thanks. Um... am I good enough to move around already? I kind of feel like walking around."

[Jayngfet]

Jack Taurus is allowed to look around while the dwarf sees to other patients.

The hanger appears to hold a few red and grey mecha. Other than that is yours, a robotic lion, and an assortment of other machines(a drill tank, a large aircraft, a train, and a firetruck.)

Tron is sent to see the representative, a man who appears to be in his mid 40's. "Miss Bonne, I represent the U.S. Government. I want to know everything thats going on here. Decepticons were bad enough but now these ...heartless? Tell me EXACTLY whats going on"

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

Tron sits down and taps the side of her cheek thoughtfully.

"Exactly whats going on? Thats a bit of a tough one..." she says.

"First of all... there are many other worlds out there. I would say countless worlds. I'm from a world called Terra, its... alot like Earth but covered in water with only some small islands above the surface. It also had flying ships and ancient evil robots that lived under the surface... not like the Autobots or Liberty Prime, and my Servbots are ones that I built myself."

"Anyway, the Heartless are creatures of Darkness... I can't really say much else about them. They can appear out of nowhere, they try to steal peoples Hearts... or at least thats what people say. If someone is killed by a Heartless then their body vanishes and a Heartless appears in there place soon afterwards... whole worlds can be destroyed by them. Literally. From what I've heard then every world out there has a Heart. This planet Earth has a Heart and the Heartless will try to steal it... and if that happens then the whole world will... disappear."

She looks at him with concern.

"I think that is what happened with my world, one moment we were fighting against hoards of Heartless. I was trying to trying to protect a rocket ship that being built... we were planning to get some people off the planet and maybe get MegaMan back. Um, he's a hero from our world... I think hes a robot but he looks like a boy in blue armor about my age."

She rubs her forehead.

"Anyway, one moment I was fighting the Heartless in my Gustaff Tank... my Drache was carrying me... and then there was this big shaking and a cloud of... pure Darkness washed over everything. We were in that cloud for days it seemed before we were picked up by the Fleet."

"The Fleet... I don't know what their real name is. But it a huge band of people from hundreds if not thousands of worlds trying to fight the Heartless. I know the main founders of the Fleet are the Moogles and Dwarves... Moogles are ... well they are small magical creatures who are good at enchanting things with magic. Dwarves are also skilled with magic and technology. These two races do alot of work, there are magical shard stones that sometimes appear when the Heartless are defeated and the Dwarves and Moogles know how to use those to make weapons and magic stuff with them."

She shakes her head, "They could tell you more about that. I've got more experience with plasma weapons and robotics. Anyway, our goal is to find worlds and help them fight off the Heartless in any way we can, this is my first 'mission' you could say and I don't know how successful the fleet has been at fighting off the Heartless on other planets."

"As for what I know about the Heartless in battle... when you kill them they vanish. They sometimes leave little bits of stuff behind like those crystals. During this last mission we helped take out a Heartless Machine and it blew up and left behind some sort of rubbery metal material... I had Number Two run some tests on it and I'd be glad to let your scientists run some tests on it as well. Plus... after we blew up the machine then it looked like an intelligent Heartless came out."

"He said... 'Looks like I need a new machine, and some more shadows. Don't worry, I'll be back.' then he just dissapeared in a puff of shadow-stuff. He looked like a muscular human."

"Anyway... the Heartless, I have no idea what they are. I think they are... they are most evil parts of peoples souls ripped out and manifest as shadow-stuff. And they just pop out of nowhere and attack people to make them more like themselves. Then blow up the world... and there's no way to take the fight to them!"


"As for what we can do... well I'm wanting to get my hands on enough equipment and stuff to build my own spaceship. I build a huge Airship called the Geiselschaft back home... cost a fortune to make though. I say arm every man woman and child with guns or weapons to protect themselves, protect everything to keep the Heartless from stealing the worlds Heart (again I have no idea how they do that or how to stop it from happening) and see about building some space ships to evacuate the planet if things go sour."

She lets out a deep breath. "Anything I missed?"

"Oh wait... also, when a world vanishes then sometimes people survive and appear on other worlds or get picked up by the Fleet. May want to keep an eye out for frightened people appearing out of nowhere on your world, or maybe see about distributing some sort of breathing gear and homing beacons for people in case the planet vanishes... you know to help make sure they survive the end of the world if they can't make it to a spaceship."

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

Jack walks around the hangar, looking at the different machinery. He had never seen most of this stuff before - it was all a new experience for him. They seemed to be built stricly from mechanical parts, and that was something he had not expected. It was true that Pure Umbra was created out of machinery, but the base of it had been a Heartless, something that could already move and fight.

He looked past the lion mech - it was a powerful sight to behold, easily standing heads and shoulders over his own - and walked towards Pure Umbra, before realizing that he didn't know how to get inside. Oh sure, he knew how to get into the cockpit, he just had no idea how he was going to get his butt up to the cockpit's height. He shook his head. No... he had to try and find some others who would know about his present situation. He needed an explanation for what had happened, and most importantly, he needed to decide what to do now.

Maybe he would come across one of the other townspeople. The dwarf had said that several had survived, after all.

[Fan]

Liberty Prime promptly salutes the General present, a mechanical hand that could likely back hand him across the continent raising swiftly, as he spouts out yet more propaganda, and a serial number, and name.

"AMERICAN MECHANIZED ASSAULT VEHICLE 072 DASH 1294- XYLV CODE NAMED LIBERTY PRIME. AWAITING ORDERS."

[Jayngfet]

Jack looks for other people from his world, but finds only a handful of scared civilians. A small creature (http://moginspace.us/otaku/moogles/m25.jpg) sees your plight and says "Just try to feel your way around, Kupo!"

Tron and Prime get an naswer

"Uh huh, tell me. If this is such a scary problem WHY only send a few people to help, instead of say a few dozen?" He clearly doesn't understand how stretched the fleet is. Though he does nod to Liberty Prime

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

Tron gives an exasperated sigh and shakes her head.

"Were you even listening?! There is an entire universe out there! The fleet consists of maybe a few races who had the technology and inferstructure to build starships, and the rest are either refugees who were caught drifting in space when their home planet vanished. We've got people protecting their own worlds, people searching for new worlds to alert, and others moving refugees around."

"Every ship out on exploration duty travels alone and half-empty. Know why? Because if we send two ships to the same planet then that means another planet out there didn't get alerted... and just might get destroyed along with its... six or so billion inhabitants. And the reason we travel half-empty? So that when we arrive we can assess if the people here can protect themselves (and in turn could use some more soldiers and engineers train them for the fight ahead) or if its people can't protect themselves and will require us to cram as many refugees as we can into our ship and head back to the Fleet with the bad news."

"So yeah, we're all you're getting for now. We're going to help you out as much as we can and fight the Heartless with every ounce of strength we've got. But you guys will have to fight as well. Then, once we're sure you guys will be able to pull through on your own (or not) then we'll head back to the Fleet with a few representatives of your world so that they can argue your case to the Fleet. Then, the Fleet may send you more reinforcements and engineers to help you out."

"Remember, the Fleet simply cannot fight all your wars for you. Every ship we send here to give you soldiers is a ship that isn't out there alerting a new world. So its your job to show us that this world is worth fighting for... and if you can't fight for it then what can we do?"

[Jayngfet]

"The united states military is overworked and we have a hell of a time keeping people from finding out about you. Unless you have a way of stopping heartless from coming we'll NEED more of you."

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

...

:smallsigh:

...

"Okay okay... I'll call my boss and see what they can spare. By the way, what's your name? If I'm going to be calling in reinforcements from halfway across the galaxy, I'm going to need something to put on the paperwork."

She pulls out a clipboard from behind her back and a pen from behind her ear. She jots the name down along with some notes.

"So, exactly what sort of reinforcements are you looking for? Soldiers? How many? Any space ships or orbital lasers? ... Any resources or weapons you really think you'll need to supplement your military here? I'll see if I can hook you up with the Moogles or Dwarves so they can send someone here, they know they magitech stuff better than I do and could talk shop with your engineers."

Once she gets a name and a rough idea of what the representative is asking for, she turns around and heads for the ship she came in on to sit in the communications seat and turns on the trans-world video-phone.

"Hello, This is Tron Bonne calling in from Earth... or, you know, one of them that we recently discovered."

"Me, Dexter, and Liberty Prime are here working with the Autobots (I mentioned them in my last report) and the US Military here. Dexter has't been saying anything since that Lighthouse incident (its not my fault his inventions are so unstable) but Liberty Prime seems to be getting along with both the Autobots and the Military here."

"Anyway, one of the representatives of the government here talked with us and he says more help down here to defend the planet. I don't think he quite understands the seriousness of the situation both for this world and the universe at large, he mentioned he was trying to keep this a secret or something which doesn't seem right to me... but I'm calling this in to see if you can spare something. The planet looks fairly industrious, not exactly as high tech as some others but I'm pretty sure with some help from our engineers their factories could start making all the weapons, ships, and robots they need to defend themselves... its just a matter of getting them to take this seriously and keep the planet from imploding until then."

Tron then gives the Fleet the representatives name and the list of requested troops and supplies.

"So yeah, send what you can spare, but see if one of the Moogles or Dwarven representatives can stop by and speak with them. I'm sure everyone would be better off if we could just supply them with the tech and means to better equip their soldiers."

[Jayngfet]

Sorry, I've been busy and need to catch a plane soon. The game continues friday.

[Fan]

"The united states military is overworked and we have a hell of a time keeping people from finding out about you. Unless you have a way of stopping heartless from coming we'll NEED more of you."

"STATEMENT: LIBERTY PRIME IS ALL THE FORCE NEEDED TO ELIMINATE COMMUNIST FORCES ENTIRELY! RISKING OTHER LIVES WOULD BE A FRIVOLOUS WASTE OF RESOURCES SIR! ALTHOUGH WHEN REQUIRED FLEET COULD SEND REINFORCEMENTS FOR DEMOCRACY!"

LIBERTY PRIME says with a mechanical programming full of American Pride, and Gung Ho Mentality.

[Jayngfet]

Liberty prime gets a few nods and cries of encouragement from nearby soldiers. As well as "with ten like him" and "Amazing" among them.

Tron gets a message from the fleet. They can't officially send anyone down but apparently a few warriors were picked up by a dwarf ship nearby after their worlds were destroyed. One of the ships and the mecha they rescued is incoming and could be there in less than an hour, showing up silently.

[Randel]

Tron

Tron makes her way back to the representative, just catching the last few yells of encouragement from the soldiers. Darn, she always misses the fun parts.

"Okay, good news. The Fleet was able to find a few warriors to send this way and they should arrive in less than an hour... in stealth mode of course since you want to keep this a secret. They were just rescued by a dwarf ship so... well, we'll get more details soon enough."

[Toric]

Dexter

A short boy with red hair shuffles toward the meeting group. His normally immaculately white labcoat is covered with black greasy substance, as is most of his face. His grumbling slowly reaches audible levels as he approaches. "Stupid capacitor shorting out right as the good stuff was starting. Now I miss out on the-a whole fight while Mister Big-Bot looks all coool with its explo-sions while I have to stand in the back with useless stoopid arms." The boy nods to the group unapologetically and finds a suitable place to stand. "Dexter-a boy genius reporting in."

Stepping out of the hangar, walks through the halls of the ship. He was still trying to get the hang of this place, but it seemed that he was safe, and in good hands at least. Still... there was nothing for him to do, it seemed. Did he have to talk to somebody? What was he trying to do here?

Hesitantly, he calls out to one of the little men situated throughout the ship.

"Um... is there a leader or somebody I can talk to, here?"

[Fan]

"Liberty Prme acknowledges acquisition of additional forces, adding new ally signature to database."

And he does just that, and whirring of carefully made computers doing things inside him can be heard.

[Jayngfet]

Jack Tarus speaks to a moogle, this one in white robelike clothing with a red triangle pattern around the edges, ears twitching slightly, causing longish greying fur to shake slightly. "Anything more you need?"The moogle looks up with an inquisitive glance.

Dexter, Liberty Prime, and Tron get through the rest of the meeting, it's nearing a close when a man bursts in, his breathing slightly heavy "Just got a message in, we've got three spotted heartless and deception movements, each over a major U.S. city. We've got one in New york, one in Dallas, one in washington. They just came out of nowhere!"

[Toric]

Dexter

"More enemies alaready?? At least they have good timing. The Dexo-Robo will be-a ready this time." As soon as the words leave Dexter's mouth the group hears a hiss and a loud metallic clang from the hangar. In response, the boy glares at his wristwatch. "Not funny, Computer." Very well, Dexter.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

Hearing this, Tron speaks into her wrist communicator to contact the servbots. "Servbots, we're going to be heading out. Get the Drache and Gustaff ready and prepare to move out."

"Yes, Ms. Tron." they promptly reply.

"Okay..." Tron holds up a hand and quickly runs through the numbers.

"Washington, New York, Dallas... Liberty Prime, Dexter, Tron."

"Liberty Prime, you should probably protect Washington since you are the strongest one in the group." She gives Dexter a glance to see if he contests this, but continues. "Though it depends on what the Military guys here decide. You're tough, invincible, totally capable of defending the place and have enough patriotic fervor to make headlines... but you are packing nukes which may have some people worried if they go off in major cities."

"Hence, Washington would be great but if the military doesn't want nukes in that area then... well, either promise not to use them or protect Dallas."

"Dexter and I will take the other two cities. Dexter, I haven't really gotten a chance to see your... Dexo-Robo thing in action. But if its more mobile than my Gustaff Tank and Drache then I would recommend you protect New York while I protect Dallas... or if Liberty is taking Dallas then you protect Washington while I protect New York."

"You know... increased mobility and speed is a must-have for urban combat in major important cities and my tank and the drache weren't made for urban combat."

Tron frowns a bit, thinking to herself. Actually the Gustaff and Drache were made for urban combat... they just weren't that good at it when facing smaller more mobile combatants who could dodge behind buildings. As much as she hated to admit it, it seems like the boy genius here might be better at fighting these Decepticons than her. Let Liberty and Dexter protect the major cities with brute strength and mobility... she'll take Dallas... wherever the heck that is (she just got on this planet, don't expect her to memorize every major city).

"Of course... that's just what I can come up with on a moments notice." she turns to the military representative (who she still doesn't know his name) "You guys run the show so I'll differ to you. The reinforcements aren't here yet so it would be best to send us out now and when they get here either send them to help us or standby in case there is another attack later."

[Toric]

Dexter

"I have to agree with you this time, girl." Dexter says as he scratches his chin, his gloves making a squeaking noise. "My Dexo-Robo does not-a have the firepower of this metal Major Glory but it is small enough to maneuver between the buildings. Besides I focus on short-a range combat anyway which works better with the skyscrapers. Send the robot or-a your tank in and New York could turn into the Big Swiss Cheese."

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

"I... uh... Is there anything I can do?" asked Jack. "I kind of want to... I don't know, maybe repay you guys for saving me? There's no way I can tell what would've happened to me if you guys didn't pull me from the darkness..."

[Fan]

LIBERTY PRIME, is honored to have been selected to defend this great nations capital, and inwardly he makes a note that if he was capable of manly tears. He would be shedding them in joy right now.

"Liberty Prime will proudly take up the mantle of defender of this Nations Great Capital! Liberty Prime will also refrain from the use of radioactive weaponry on our Great Nation's soil as per orders!"

Liberty Prime then moves into whatever transportation has been provided for the defender of Americas Great Capital!

[Jayngfet]

The greying moogle grins at Jack, his pom pom bobs slightly as he stands tall. His old looking yet well kept white and green clothing is smoothed a bit as he replies, you catch sight of well kept pearly white teeth as he replies "No problem, it's what we do. Every time we see a world gone into darkness we look for people, animals, anything or anyone we can pull out. Most of the people are civilians and most of the stuff is junk but we do it all the same, because no one else can afford to.

Though if you really wanna do something... the same guys that ate your world are on the move, more than likely the same group exactly. We just got a call on increased heartless activity on the next world over and they'll need whatever help they can get. That big mecha of yours seems as suited to the job as almost anything else me or my crew have ever seen. We can drop you off with the fleet and whoever else is able to fight. Sound good?"

Tron, Dexter, and Liberty prime are lifted to their respective cities.

Tron is near white rock lake (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/6/65/Whiterocklakeariel.jpg/800px-Whiterocklakeariel.jpg) with Ironhide, in the water dozens of smaller heartless(size of a man), swarm around a slowly sinking boat apparently unable to move.

A single monstrous figure is in the water with them. The top portion of it''s body, serving as a crude head, is out of the water looking around. It's just next to the capsized boat but doesn't seem do be doing anything. Yet.

You're drache and mecha touch down with a few soldiers to assist on the shores, looking at the humanoid figures dancing and circling around the figure like predators waiting for a meal.

A soldier says "We've got everyone else evacuated, only ones left are on that boat."

Dexter touches down in Manhattan, tall buildings gleaming all around. Here there are two major threats.

The first is a ship (http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/4/41/Dragonfly.jpg) flying overhead, firing down the occasional bolt, shattering windows, blasting street lights and vehicles, and occasionally hitting one of the two dozen or so fleeing humans.

Among these attempting to flee are two large bodied heartless (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/8/8b/Kh-large-body.jpg). They throw themselves at the humans with wild abandon, crushing men, women, and children when they hit. More regularly they miss and slam into a wall or automobile, smashing it into un unrecognizable shape.

Liberity Prime is dropped alongside Optimus Prime, the two primes facing the largest hoard of heartless alongside several military men.

The humans are attempting to shoot down at least two hundred shadows (http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/d/df/Shadow.jpg), about a fifth as many soldiers (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/thumb/e/e3/Soldier.jpg/506px-Soldier.jpg), and two large, golden soldiers (http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/e/e6/Sergeant.png).

Overhead a pair of jets duel six times as many Wyverns (http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/kingdomhearts/images/d/dc/Wyvern-Heartless.jpg), each dodges gunfire and missiles with ease, and most bullets ripping the wings have little effect on the already tattered membranes.

Over the communications you hear amongst the chaos of battle

"We can't get the president out in these conditions, and it takes all we have to keep them out and they just keep coming!" this is punctuatedby a missile exploding a wyvern, and two more appearing in it's place. Gunfire roars around you as heartless keep spawning as quickly as humans can cut them down with guns.

Optimus draws his Ion rifle and begins firing into the mass of shadows, blasting apart five or six at a time and leaving small holes in the hoard that take several seconds to fill back with more.

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

Jack's eyes widened at the news he just recieved.

"Yes...! I'll do it!" smiled the boy. "Are we on our way right now? Are there any preparations I should make?"

[Toric]

Dexter

The red-topped mech idles in a suitably heroic pose on a city street as Dexter initiates manual control. "Computer. Threat analysis." Inside the well-armored cockpit, three images appear on the viewscreen each with an accompanying "Ping!" noise. Dexter, three hostiles were spotted before touchdown. One flying unit firing with no discernable pattern, and two ambulatory supermass constructs actively targeting civilian groups. Priority: Supermass constructs.

"Right. Let's see here. Very large, New York...." Dexter punches an orange button on the console, causing one robotic arm to extend and point a finger at the nearest Heartless, and activating the Dexo-Robo's speakers. "Hey, you big tubs of goo! The auditions for Edna Turnblad ended-a last week!" With the push of another button, the pointing hand rockets off of its arm and flies directly for the center of its target.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Great... " Tron says, a little dejectedly. Her Gustaff Tank was watertight but wasn't buoyant and while the Plasma gun could work under water... she didn't like the idea of driving around on the bottom of the lake.

She makes a quick look around the shore for signs of a boat she could use to ferry the drache. Numbers Two and Twenty three pop out of the Gustaff Tank onto the ground.

"Okay boys, lets get those people off of that boat. Ten and Fifteen, get the rescue net ready inside the drache and hover over the boat and use the net to airlift those people out. Two and Twenty Three you go with them and drop down onto the boat to help the people into the rescue net and provide cover fire incase the Heartless attack. Use the safety cables to make sure you don't fall into the water."

"Um, rescue net? We have the looting net but no rescue..." Number Ten says.

"Ugh, yes use the looting net but since we're rescuing people its a rescue net. Just... get those people to safety. Oh, and get everyone off the ship before you fire your bazookas at the heartless in the water."

Actually... I should really think about getting them something smaller than bazookas. Tron thinks to herself.

On command, the servbots get ready. Two and Twenty Three get some safety cables and hook themselves to the Drache with it. They grab onto the handles on the bottom of the drache and they fly over to the boat, ready to drop the net down for the people to get inside.

The net was made to help the Bonne Family quickly loot areas by just piling stuff into the net and flying off with it... it can hold several tons easily and should have no problem carrying the people (though it might be a bit cramped in there).

The drache hovers over the boat while the net and Servbots Two and Twenty Three start to lower to the boat. The two servbots are armed with bazookas, ready to provide some protective fire

"Alright everybody, please just climb into the rescue net and we'll airlift you out." Servbot Fifteen says over the loudspeaker to the people below.

Tron keeps an eye on the situation from afar, though she's a bit antsy about being unable to help due to the Tanks weight. She raises her Plasma Cannon and fires a few shots near the Heartless, being sure not hit near the boat.

Maybe we can distract the Heartless from them while they work.

[Jayngfet]

Jack hears the old moogle chuckle a bit, small wings flapping for a moment despite him standing still "We're just about ready. We can launch you immediatly as soon as we pick a landing site. According to the sensors we've got three battle sights you can assist in, and can get you there shortly."

(Pick one landing site, Texas, New York, or Washington).

"Also, a couple of the people we've rescued are in some kind of coma. We looked em over and they look to be primarily mechanical, and their hearts either boosted or made out of a synthesis material we haven't heard of yet. It's related to one of the ones we HAVE lots of information and if we an get a bit more of it we should be able to bring them back. They're both mecha warriors and should be able to help in the war effort as soon as we can get them consious so it's kind of a big deal. Keep an eye out for something like this" He finishes, pulling out a piece of paper. On it is a blue translucent stone, looks like it glows softly and has a vaguely heart shape.

"This is called spirit, it's the essence of a warriors will to fight. If we can get four shards or two larger gems we can bring them back. Keep an eye out for other materials, my boys and girls are always looking for more materials to convert. If you bring the materials and a little extra to trade we can make some upgrades for your machine, and if you bring a new synthesis recipe, mecha blueprints, or parts we may be able to give you something in return.

One more thing, over the years a bunch of people have lost notebooks and Journals to heartless. If you can give any to us we can send a copy to them and hand you a nice reward. If you need help keeping track we can get you an electronic Journal to hold the information in, it's good for when you need to keep track of lots of things at once."

Dexter fires a rocket at one of the large body heartless. It strikes well and slams into it's stomach with a fiery explosion. However when the smoke clears the heartless still stands, unscathed though sent backwards about ten meters into a window. This has however got the attention of it and it's partner. They both heave their massive bellies and set charging, one in front of another straight at you, knocking anything between them and their target(you), far out of the way and sending it flying and damaged.

Luckily they aren't slamming into people anymore.

Tron watches as the servbots begin to fly towards the visibly sinking yacht. However as they fly above the big guy he releases a zap of lightning from his head, hitting the airship. However it doesn't look damaged signifigantly and is still in the air.

You not this is at exactly the same time you strike and hit one of the green figures, causing it to explode in time with the lightning bolt.

[Randel]

Tron and Servbots

"Eeep!" One of the servbots yelps as they get zapped by the monster.

"No stopping! Go get those people off the boat!" Tron grits her teeth and watches the Servbots continue on dutifully to get the people off.

Tron turns to Ironhide and the soldiers with her. "I'm not exactly sure whats going on... but zapping those smaller Heartless might have made it react and zap the drache. If it zaps the people there then it could get messy."

she sighs exasperated. "Okay, plan A is to not attack that thing until the people are safely out of range. Not sure if it will let them just take off but it looks like if we attack then it will start zapping. Not 100% sure on how it works but I think killing them with the lightning would make it impossible for them to steal their hearts... so it would rather they drop into the water instead of zapping them."

"Plan B... we move the drache out and hit that bastard with everything we've got. Hopefully we kill the Heartless or draw them away from the boat before it sinks. Then we grab the people we can save."

"Plan C... well plan C we bomb the Heartless and mercy kill the civilians if it looks like they are about to get eaten by the Heartless. Certainly a last resort but better dead than Heartless."

She turns to Ironhide and the soldiers. "So, I'm going with plan A for now... any suggestions or ideas because lives are on the line."

...

"Actually... screw it, this thing works underwater. If that thing fires at the drache then I'll put a few plasma bolts right up its tail-hole." she says and drives forward, the Gustaff Tank submerging beneath the water. "Let me know whats happening topside."

[Fan]

"FEAR NOT, NOBLE DEFENDERS OF AMERICA! DEMOCRACY IS VICTORY! COMMUNISM IS THE DEFINITION OF FAILURE!"

Liberty Prime then moves forward, firing into the crowd of heartless with his arm mounted lasers, while his head mounted lasers fired at any that got too close to the machine gun nests, hoping to buy them time.

"TACTICAL ASSESSMENT. ALLEY EQUIPPED WITH POISTRON WEAPON, RANGE CAPABLILITY OBSERVED WOULD BE ENOUGH TO TAKE DOWN THE COMMUNIST ORGANIC AERIAL UNITS! PURPOSE: AIR SUPERIORITY FOR ASSURED PAY LOAD DELIEVERY OF NON NUCLEAR ARESENAL WEAPON: VACUUM AIR BOMB. PAY LOAD: 5 MEGA TONS. GARUNTEED DESTRUCTION OF COMMUNIST ORGANIC ANAMOLIES. ASSURED!"


He says as he attempts to Grey Fox one of the larger soldiers threatening the lines.

[Toric]

Dexter

"Well, now that I have your fuuull attention the show can-a really begin!" As the supermasses approach, Dexter pulls back on the controls. The Dexo-Robo begins a series of jet-assisted hops backward down the street while firing its machine guns. "Computer, scan approaching buildings for life signs! I need one that has no civilians!"

Assuming that one such building is available, Dexter slows his escape as he nears it to allow the supermasses to catch up.. then kicks off the wall of the building and somersaults over the enemies hoping their momentum will drive them into the building. "Fire rockets!" Mid-jump, launchers rise from the shoulders and unleash a payload that will bring the building down on top of the Heartless.

[Jayngfet]

Dexter finds an empty mcdonalds with playplace. Ballpit, jungle gym, and all next to the tables and counter. As he flees from the charging heartless his gunfire bounces off the frontside of them and reflects into everything in the area.

When they're in the building rockets are fired, bringing the place down under them. You see a bit of movement to tell you these guys aren't down yet, though out for a bit. The dragonfly type overhead is still firing off shots though.


Liberty Prime Tears through the mass of tiny monsters, at least by comparison to himself.

Optimus nods "Good strategy" and opens fire on the wyverns. One goes down as a couple of shots reduce it to a couple of broken wings and a tail that dissolve to darkness.

Tron charges as Ironhide begins drawing out cannons. From his arms and chest barrels form. You hear over the communications system you can speak through to him and the soldiers "Lets take em out!"

[Elagune]

[Jack Taurus]

Jack thought about it for a second. A war effort... These people wanted to fight against the ones that had taken his hometown. If the place had really been lost... Then there was really nothing left for him to do. The only thing he could worry about was to fight back then.

Washington, Texas, and New York...

Well, alright then.

"Okay, got it. I'll take... New York."

[Randel]

Tron

Tron heads for the big guy and looks for any weak points, then starts firing at them! Using the Gustaff Tanks built-in sonar system she keeps an eye out if any of those smaller Heartless start getting close to her and takes evasive action if necessary.

[Toric]

Dexter

Clearly the twitching from under the rubble counts as a defeat. At the push of another button, Dexter's mecha performs a celebratory arm-pump. "Wooo! Did you see that-a, Computer?" Yes, Dexter. "They chased after me and then I was all 'Hoo! Ninja-flip!' and they had no idea!" I saw, Dexter, but there's still- "Who neeeds that stupid-a Bonne girl with her cuutesy-woootsy little-a robots when you've got Dex pow-AAH!" The Dexo-Robo stumbles to the side, recovering from one of the dragonfly's stray blasts. As I was saying, the flying unit is still firing randomly. Would you like to address that now, Dexter?


A pigeon sits alone at the top of a skyscraper, heedless of the carnage below and content to chirp its own melody. Midway through its latest masterpiece, it stops and considers that its solo has become a duet. Puzzled, it listens quietly at the voice that has joined in. "Margleshibble climb this stupid building with one hand. I just had to do the coool thing and try out the action challenge button and it didn't even finish the enemy off. But it will make for a goood story." The grumbling monologue is interrupted when an enormous black hand rises above the building and smothers the spot where a now-terrified bird once stood. The Dexo-Robo hauls the rest of itself to the skyscraper roof and stands up. "Now where is that darn dragonfly?" The question is immediately answered as a shockwave nearly knocks him off the building he worked so hard to climb. The robotic head turns to follow the fleeing dragonfly. "You buzzed me! Nobody buzzes the boy genius!" Rocket pods extend from the shoulders and machine guns fire at the oversized bug.

[Fan]

"FEAR NOT BRAVE DEFENDERS OF AMERICA, FOR WE WILL STAND VICTORIOUS FOR DEMOCRACY!"


Liberty Prime shouted with patriotic fevor that could have quelled the mightiest beast, before he heard a errant scream, and is eyes then flash with that same old white, scanning over the mass of heartless present, before a green acknowledgement symbol pops up.

" SCANNING COMMUNIST ORGANIC ANAMOLIES FORMATION! WEAKNESS FOUND!"

He then retrieved one of the non nuclear, smaller pay load, bombs his nukes had been replaced with for this fight, and took careful aim at one of the larger crowds. Tactical computers relaying information on where to throw it, how to throw it, and when to throw it for maximum affect.

"EXPLOITING!"

With all the grace of a Olympic Gymnast he hurls the bomb like a shot put, directly into the advancing masses where the bombs calculated radius would not touch the machine gun nest's, but give them a wider berth due to the sudden vacancy of heartless that would soon be filled.

[Jayngfet]

Liberty Prime's blast goes off as planned, smashing a hole in the advancing heartless. The guners take the opprotunity to open fire and regain an advantage. Optimus Prime blasts Wyverns out of the sky, one or two shots blowing them apart, and weaknesses made by survivors an excellent opportunity for the F-22 pilots. Gunfire roars as the advancing heartless meet their doom. Very rarely one or two leaves a gem, though you can't keep track f where they are as more keep coming in an endless wave, building higher and higher and still hasn't reached its crest.

Tron's fire, combined with those from her supporters, blast appart the first heartless. However the moment he goes down the many smaller green heartless scatter. The water around you becomes a blur, tridents putting tiny dents into your mecha's armor.

Each dent is insignifigant on it's own but they keep piling on. One on top of another on top of another. No major damage yet but it's turning out to be a bit of a problem.

On he plus side, the survivors seem to be getting out quickly now that the heartless have stopped concentrating on her.

Jack listens as the aging moogle nods "All we needed to hear" He turns to the other crew members "Take this thing down to New York, keep the main ship high and get the hanger Docker low. Watch out, we'll have multiple large buildings full of civilians. Lock down every machine not ready for combat and prepare Pure Umbral for launch!"

Nobody misses a beat. In a few seconds retractable walls sprout from the ground around every machine except your own. Everyone else leaves the hanger quickly after, the people you've spoken with giving you a nod as they leave. You feel the ship rock slightly, followed by a small lurch. Over the intercom you hear a voice, a new one.

"Awrigh, lemme walk ya through this lad. In a few seconds we'll launch ya, the hanger will detach and transform. We'll deplooi you from there, it should be simple and wifout a problem."

Dexter climbs. As he rises a new object appears high above the buildings and the dragonfly. It appears to be a sort of metallic red sphere with several objects jutting out. An orb shaped ship with rockets jutting out. It's front half has a sort of star shape on it's front.

Before his eyes the red star detaches and descends silently until it lands on another rooftop across the street..The top point splits in half near the top and becomes a set of large ears. The bottom two enlongate to form long legs. The last set split to become small wings and arms. A small tinted visor appears on it's head. The centre section splits, the top half rising, the bottom descending. Where its stomach would be is a sort of door. The hatch opens to reveal a smaller mecha inside.

You note that the machine has a sort of translucent multicolored line between it and the point it detached at, giving a physical connection.

A voice kicks in from the main ship. "Ach! Don' shoot us laddie. We be here ta help!"

He fires his guns, the dragonfly speeding up. Most bullets only hit it's tail or body. It does however waver after a couple seconds of shooting.

One of the shapes below groggily rises. A large body seems to be back in the game.

[Toric]

Dexter

The mecha's soldiers slump when it recieves the transmission. "Reinforcements?" Dexter groans to himself. "Do they-a reeeelly think I'm doing that badly?" He then turns his attention back to the dragonfly, with its increased speed. "Computer, what do you advise?" Well, Dexter. The flying unit is too maneuverable for our conventional arms, leaving few attack options. "Right. I'll attack it myself." ....What? "The Dexo-Robo is too big for it to-a dodge. Here it comes again!"

As the dragonfly passes the building a second time. the robot leaps off the building on a crash course with the dragonfly.... which then simply turns and flies off in a different direction. Dexter reaches out to grab it as it flees.... with the arm that has already fired its hand. The emotive servos cause the outside corners of the robot's "eyes" to droop as the robot hangs in the air for a few seconds. "....Maybe I could use a little help." he says casually before falling to the street below.

[Randel]

Tron

"Did we get the big one? Things are getting a bit fishy down here, I'm heading back out."

Tron shifts the Gustaff Tanks treads into reverse and backs out of the lake, while firing her plasma cannon into the water around her to take out the Heartless scratching her paint job.

[Jayngfet]

As Dexter falls the hanger mecha screams "Hol' on lad! Deploy tha recovery hand!". One of it's arms fires off. As the appendige zooms towards you and grabs your mech's arm. A line connecting the arm to the body tightens as it retracts, pulling you up next to it. The large robot kneels. "I'm nae equipped for gewd fightin. All I got on me is a little beam and tha don' have great range. Jack in here's gonna deploy an tha two of ye shoul be able to kick this bastard to smithereens!"

Tron fires off plasma shots, destroying a few of the many heartless. By the time she rises out of the lake the airship and it's cargo of people is back and landed. Ironhide and the military seems ready to fire "Just say the word and we can blast them to hell!"

[Randel]

Tron

"All right then! Lets show these Heartless how we like to fish around here!"

"Um, with a fishing pole?"

"Noo... with High Explosives!"

"Oh yeah."

"Fire!"

Tron fires her plasma cannon into the water, looking for any signs of movement. As soon as the people are gently lowered to the ground and let out of the net then the Servbots join in as well, firing their bazookas and the draches plasma guns into the water.

The explosions under the water send shockwaves through it and several of the fishy Heartless float to the surface before they dissipate into shadow.

[Jayngfet]

Both mecha, as well as several soldiers, open fire. For a good three minutes nobody stops firing, blasting the heartless apart into shadowy whisps.

After Ironhide fires one last high powered explosive the dust and steam clears. In the center of the lake, suspended in the water near the top is a pair of stones.

The first looks to be another crystal of sorts. A familiar yellow, though you can tell from here it's much larger and more ornate.

The second looks to be a sort of hoop or ring, black and yellow.

Other than that it's too far away to make out details.

[Randel]

Tron

"Say, I think we got 'em." Tron says as she looks at the water. "Number Twenty Three... go grab those stones and bring them back here." she says, sending the Servbot out to collect the stones.

She hits the radio to get in touch with the Army command. "It looks like we got rid of the Heartless in the lake and the civilians are evacuated. Where do you need us next?" she asks, checking the scanners to see if there are more Heartless in the area that she can't see.

[Toric]

Dexter

Oh yes, yes, come to my rescue, pick me up like some action figure. Don't mind me, I'm just losing any dignity I have left. Though he may know better than to voice such sentiments, he directs his mecha to slap itself on the face out of habit. When the bunkerbot lands, the Dexo-Robo waits outside the expected opening and sighs. "...I guess I can show some-a rookie the ropes. Okay new guy. Let's-a seee what you got."

[Fan]

[Font=Fixedsys]FEAR NOT THE GROWING TIDE! DEMOCRACY WILL ALWAYS SURMOUNT THE VILE FORCES OF COMMUNISM! FOR FREEDOM IS THE SOVERIGN RIGHT OF EVERY AMERICAN!"

He says even as he continues to chuck the non nuclear bombs deep into enemy lines, and his gatling lasers continue to cut into the front lines, dakka whistling by his audio recptors, even as he felt the red lasers overheating, he changed to the more powerful blue lasers, and began targetting heartless soldiers, and the larger heartless.

[Jayngfet]

Tron sees one more heartless in the air. An immense creature high above descending rapidly. Just as you catch sight of it on the scanner a bolt of energy slams into a nearby soldier, leaving a fat crater in his chest and blowing him a meter backwards, killing him. Several more shots follow in rapid succession. They hit random spots all around you, slamming into dirt, plants, and a few ding off Ironhides well, iron based hide.

It stays high in the air, barely visible. You can make out several limbs ending in weapons that fire rapidly in almost every direction, sending bright bolts to and fro in every direction. Nearby houses, fortunately already evacuated, begin dropping in places as bolts hit vital areas. It looks to have at least six limbs and be orange and red.

You hear amongst the fire and chaos a sound, like a police siren blaring as a poliece car races towards you down the road, dodging bolts of dark power.

Dexter watches Jack hesitate, long enough for the dragonfly to make another pass with a stream of bolts. The moogle hanger mecha fires a small laser in an attempt to keep it at bay, doing little damage.

"Ah, darnit Jack now ain't tha time ta be hesitatin!"


A shunt sends Pure umbral, a grim looking mecha, onto the rooftop next to Dexters mech. The dragonfly has rounded a street corner as you two get a good luck at each other and should be getting ready for another pass.

A second later the rythimic sound of a helicopters beating wings fills the air, and from the opposite street the airborn vehicle suddenly becomes visible.

Liberty Prime Continues cutting down enemy ranks, leaving large craters in the white house lawn and holes in the gate. Heartless die off in immense numbers. They keep coming in but you're gaining the upper hand.

Suddenly a Wyvern approaches a plane from behind and takes a huge bite out of the wing and engine. Not giving him respite the creature rends another wing section off with it's powerful talons. The F-22 goes flying downwards into the city below to crash.

To replace it however a tank is rolling up the street, it's guns already pointed to the battle.

[Randel]

Tron

"Dangit, there's another one..." Tron scowls as she looks up at the flying Heartless. She turns to Ironhide and the Servbots in the Drache.

"Ironhide, think you can take out that big Heartless if the Drache carries you up there?"

The Servbots pilot the Drache down next to Ironhide, Two and Twenty Three climb up onto the top of the Drache, still with their safety cables hooked on in case they fall. Their Bazookas loaded and ready to fire once they get within range of the beast.

"Don't worry Mr. Ironhide. Mr. Optimus did really well when he was riding up here."

I'm going to have to build some kind of flying Mecha once I get the supplies, Tron things as she looks up.

Once Ironhide and the Drache start going up, Tron keeps her Gustaff Tanks weapons trained on the flying Heartless and starts driving towards it, firing at it to hopefully get in a few shots or draw its attention.
