Cyber-Mech Ninja Clan By: Galen Muhammad Mission 3 Previously: The M-Ninja pilots separated after attacking another military base. The so-called dead pilot Colonel Cortex has reappeared and has a new team. The new pilots for the Kuro Kage are none other than the M-Ninja pilot's evil twins. Galen and Jennifer engage in combat with a few MCU's at a training base and are suddenly up against Tora and Sakura. (At Military Camp) (I put away my Buster Sword and pull out my Energy Scythe and charged forward. Tora lunged at me with his Shadow Blade. Our weapons met and sparks flew. I jumped back and fired a few missiles. He blocked them with his shield and Jumped into the air. I looked upwards and was met with the blinding rays of the sun.) Galen: He 's using the sun as a visual smokescreen, but I can still find him. (I fired my shoulder guns into the air, but they didn't contact. My sensors beeped and I was hit from behind with a barrage of rockets.) You're a coward, using the sun as a means of beating me. (I turned all the way around and slashed sideways with my blade. Tora's MCU wasn't there.) Galen: Where did he go now. My sensors say he 's still on ground, but he 's nowhere in sight. I fired a few rounds of lasers around me, and a few contacted with something. For a split second I saw Tora's MCU. Galen: He must be using a cloaking device, which would explain it. (I turned all the way around with my Scythe and came into contact with something. I looked and saw Tora's MCU holding my Scythe. He turned his hand upward and broke my weapon.) Tora: Your going to have to do better than that. (He turned his cloak on again.) Galen: Not again. I've got to find a way to beat this guy, he is strategically stronger than I am; but I'm better at artillery. (I sat still for a few seconds. Then my sensors beeped. I jumped into the sky and fired some rockets to the spot around where I stood. My missiles hit Tora's MCU.) Tora: How'd you find me, no one has ever gotten through my cloak shield. Doesn't matter, I'm going to finish you now. (He withdrew his sword from the ground where he tried to strike me. He jumped into the air and sliced at me with his sword. I dodged then, counterattacked with my sword. We exchanged a few more blows while coasting to the ground. As we landed I kicked him across the plain. As I got a chance to think I looked to see how Jennifer was doing with Sakura. Galen: Hey, Jennifer you okay over there? Jennifer: (Receives a blast to the torso then a slice to the arm which was blocked.) Never been better. I could use a little help here though. Galen: My hands are bit full at the moment. Maybe later. Jennifer: What do you say we use our Mech Fusion? Galen: Yea now would be a good time to use it. (I rushed over to Sakura and tackled her to the ground, as she was about to slice off a piece of Jennifer's Death Star. Galen: You ready? Jennifer: Yea, lets do it! (We flipped up a panel labeled "Fusion" and the transformation started. Our mech stood beside each other and started glowing, then they floated toward each other. Then there was a flash of light. After a few seconds a totally new mech was standing in the place of the two original mechs.) Galen: Hey Tora, meet our Dark Knight. Tora: What the hell is going on, this fusion was never in the designs. Sakura: They must have developed it when we took the original plans for the ultimate MCU's. Shouldn't make a difference, now we only have to fight one instead of two. Jennifer: It seems that they're in for a surprise. (Cables come from out of the walls of the Dark Knight and connect to Jennifer's and mine input plugs located on our necks. A visor appeared in front of our faces, then our minds became one.) Galen: Let me control this one Jennifer, you'll get the next fight. Jennifer: There might not be a next fight. Tora: At least not for you, because you'll be dead. (Tora and Sakura charged at us with their weapons ready to strike.) Galen: Its time for you to learn your place. (Dark Knight goes behind his back and pulls out this huge cannon.) EAT THIS BASTARD! (Energy forms in the center of the cannons barrel.) Sakura: What's going on. (Stops charging) Tora: Who cares, I'm not going to let Galen get the best of me. (He continues to charge forward.) Galen: All right, have in your way. (The energy that was forming fires.) Tora: Holy Shit! (He try's to block as the huge blast engulfs his MCU. The blast compresses on Tora's MCU then encases his MCU) Sakura: What the hell is going on!? Jennifer: Your boyfriend is about to get the worst beating he'll ever receive. Tora: What's this, some kind of detainment trap. Sakura: I'll get you out. (Raises Gatling gun.) Tora: Sakura No! (Sakura fires and the shot comes into contact with the energy shield. For a while nothing happens, then the shield blows up with a large shockwave radius. Our Dark Knight puts up its shield to block and receives minimum damage. Tora on the other hand didn't have so much luck.) (When the smoke cleared and the fire went out there was a heap of scrap metal where Tora's K. Ryu was standing a couple seconds before.) Sakura: No, Tora. (She ran over to the remains of the fallen MCU and picked it up.) How could you do this to your brother! Galen: That monster is not my brother. Sakura: Yes, he is. He's your twin. You may not always act the same, but you look almost the same. Ughh, you two are impossible to differentiate from. Galen: *I really don't know that for sure. I've never really seen him before. I just know his voice from the recording Galen was making before he was murdered by Tora and the others. * Jennifer: Get out of here while you still can. When you regather your forces come back and try your luck again. Sakura: Just you wait. I'll get you back sis. You better believe that. (She fly's off into the sky in a hurry to get Tora out of his busted ass MCU.) Jennifer: The rest of them are probably after the other guys as well. (We jumped out of our MCU's to look at the damage we received.) Galen: Maybe we should warn them. Jennifer: Even if we did contact them, why would we want them to be looking over their shoulders every five seconds to see if their under attack. Let's now worry them; they can take care of themselves. Galen: I guess your right. Plus we need to upgrade or MCUs and work on new strategies. Jennifer: Man, you are really boring to be around. We just had a major victory, we should go celebrate or something. (I smiled) Galen: You mean like a date? (She blushed a little) Jennifer: No, not exactly. Let's just go do something. I need a break; some time to go shopping. Or at least purchase some anime stuff. Galen: I guess your right. I might even get the chance to know you better...again. (She smiled and gracefully jumped back into her MCU). Galen: Big deal, I can do that. Watch this. (I jump up, flipped and land on the side of the hatch. I stumbled and tumbled out and landed on my head. I could hear Jennifer laughing for ass off above me. I stood up.) Galen: Didn't hurt at all. (The giant bump on the back of my head said otherwise. I climbed into my Death Zero and converted into my f-14 Jet mode.) Jennifer: So what you want to do? Galen: I don't know, what you want to do? Jennifer: Hey, I asked you first. Galen: Well I asked you second. Jennifer: Well answer me first. Galen: Why, I asked the last question, and usually the last question gets answered first in game shows if I may say so. Jennifer: Ugh! You're just impossible. (I quietly laughed to myself then we vacated the area to drop off our MCUs and head off to find something fun to do other than destroying things.) (In Antarctica) Taj: I thought we said we were going to Africa. Elijah: Well, we were, but there was just too many strong forces up there. Not even we could handle so many. Taj: Then why did we come here? There's nothing here but polar bears and ice. Elijah: I overheard on the Kuro Kage radio transmissions that they had a large missile base located here. So were going to do what we can and move on to a different target. Taj: Right! So uh...where is this base you say exists. Elijah: Well, that's the problem. I really don't know. Taj: Well, ain't that a bitch. Who knows how long it'll take us to find it. Elijah: I'm pretty sure we can find it before nightfall. (Taj takes a look around the cloudy filled skies as the blizzard went on.) Taj: For all we know it can already be nighttime, so we better get this done and over with. Elijah: Hey, quick get down. (They get low behind a mound of snow and their white camouflage helped conceal their location.) Maybe we shouldn't have left our Mechs. Taj: We can call them down if we need them. Plus we got weapons of our own. (A tank rolls up to another mound of snow maybe ten yards away. Elijah and Taj used their eyes zoom command while the soldier in white camouflage keyed in a pass code. Then the mound flipped up and revealed an entrance. Three seconds later he and the tank went inside and the entrance closed.) Taj: Did you record that in your database? Elijah: Yea I got it. Why didn't you get it? Taj: My visual sensors are a bit messed up; I'll have to do maintenance when we get to our outpost. Elijah: That's probably because you stay up late playing Playstation 2. Taj: Whatever! Let's just go. My circuits feel as if they're freezing up. (They approach the hidden entrance to the Kuro Kage missile base. Elijah keys in the numbers required to open it. A few seconds later the entrance opened; they enter cautiously.) Taj: Hey bro, catch. (He tossed Elijah a blaster from a side panel in his leg.) Elijah: What do I need this for I have my own right...(He opens up his weapon compartment to find it empty)...here. Hey this is mine. Why'd you have it? Taj: I decided to upgrade it while I was busy. Now it has the pinpoint accuracy of a sniper rifle and less recoil. Elijah: But that takes away the feeling of the original laser magnum design. Taj: Damn, I don't get a thank you or nothing. Elijah: Fine. I appreciate you trying to help me, but next time ask for my consent before you mess with my weapons. (They walk down the first corridor. Elijah reminds Taj to conserve his ammunition.) Soldier 1: This sure is a boring patrol. Soldier 2: Well, those M-Ninja guys won't be messing with us when we finish this operation. They won't know what hit them. (Elijah steps around the corner and draws his heat knife from his forearm. He runs to the first guy and cuts his throat. Blood spewed all over the walls and floor.) Soldier 2: Holy Shit. I got to sound the alarm and...(Taj draws his wrist crossbow and shoots one of his special darts.) Soldier 2: Ahhhh, what ever you do to me I won't talk. (He grabs the dart and pulls it out of his neck.) Taj: Who said anything about talking? All you have to do is die. (Soldier 2's head started expanding at an alarming rate. Then as it reached it maximum size it exploded spraying blood and cerebral matter all over the place. The stuff repelled off of their plasma shields and Soldier 2's headless body dropped to the floor along with his fallen comrade.) (Taj smiled) Taj: I hope the others are doing as well as we are. (Two shadows appear at the end of the corridor) Hiru: You should be worrying about yourselves. Kuma: Yea. Soon your body will join those men you killed. Which I might say was an interesting display. I must commend for how far you've gotten; but your victories end here and so do you. END OF MISSION 3
