| -- Orbit Around Planet Argus, 0900 Hours-- The IronPride Capital Fleet and numerous othe IronPride fleets prepared themselves for a battle they doubted they could win. Intelligence believed that the U.N.S.C. had built 10's of thousands of ships and was now mobilizing them on their ownly remaining world, Argus. Suddenly over a thousand space-fold bubbles popped into existance neer the system's outer planet of Hermis. The first wave of ships was quickly eradicated by the IronPride's already charged DDC's, but more ships kept arriving. "We cant hold them off for ever." Said Victor Tagart sadly as thousands of ships began folding-in all over the system. "Lets hope Korban and the boys can hold them." was all he could hope as the Escalibur opened up its 14 DDC's into a wave of approaching cruisers. -- Olympus City, Planet Argus, 1000 Hours-- "I dont like this one bit, how could they have gotten this many soldiers and still have a fleet" muttered Korban as numerous reinforcements came to fortify their lines, but unfortunately the enemy had reinforcements of their own. "90% of regiment forces are actually just hunks of metal possesd by extra-dimensional beings, i wouldnt be surprised if they are used to fortify the U.N.S.C. ranks" Mike responded to Korban, who wasnt fully aware his neural interface had activated the COM line. "Die you fools!" yelled Mike as he unloaded his NOVA cannons into the enemy lines, taking out a large number of Lightbringers. They responded by obliterating a small flanking squad of Pharoahs with their NOVA cannons.The Hellbringer tank quicly finished off the NOVA cannon equiped Monster II and continued to lay down supression fire with its heavy cannon. Unfortunately yet another U.N.S.C. dropship arrived with reinforcements. IronWarrior, Vengence and a number of Lightbringers and Monsters poured out of the ships Suit port. IronWarrior quickly activated its Translation drives and flew above the battlefield, seeking prey. IronWarrior charged up its heavy EMP cannon and fired it at the tank sending the tank and 2 Pharoahs flying to their doom as Vengence fired its DNC at them, each shot obliterating one. With the Hellbringer taken care of the lightbringers foolishly moved up and were defeated by Krasian's Nova cannon and Corvin's Mercury Blades. 2 Punisher Aces moved up with their Heavy Arms, attempting to mow-down the enemy's next attempt at an advance. Unfortunately a U.N.S.C. dropship flew overhead, dropping empty battlesuit chasis onto the IronPride forces, and then convieniently crashing into the area's DDC platform. The suits came hurtling down, crushing IronPride troops and Battlesuits. "We have to fall back we cant hold them for now!" Ordered Krasian over the COM. IronPride forces everywhere were forced to fall back , inch by inch, by the overwhelming enemy forces. Luckily the fleet was able to hold off this wave of attackers, but the U.N.S.C. Capitol fleet had not yet arrived. IronPride was in for a fight they knew they could not win.. -- Hall Of Lords, Sovereign Palace, 10th Age of Division-- Nethermazuulm, walked along the gleaming white halls to his master's Throne room. The room had once been used as the metting place of the Sovereign, but since only 2 were left and 1 was stuck in another reality, Omathalus hd converted it into a room honouring himself. The halls were lined with Netherdragons in their humanoid form like himself, their bloodred flames almost opposing to the bright white and blue of the palace. He opened the 10km high doors into his masters Throneroom as was greeted by the stern looks of the Netherlords, half breeds between the Warp Dragons and the Nether Dragons. "You come bearing me news" said Sovereign Omathalus through is deep echoeing voice as his eyes glowed a dazziling gold. "Yes my lord" respectfully responded Nethermazullm as he bowed to his master " Your regiment has almost destroyed the Heretics, it is only a matter of time until you are free to reunite the realities, Archanar is progressing well toward his appointed task". "Yes, I suppose so, but i do not see enough belief among these Humans who control this planet e-arth, I fear that they may break from my control" responded Omathalus."Yes my lord, I will see what i can do to help hold them to our holy cause" said Nethermazuulm. Omathalus chuckled to himself knowing that once the Regiment's task was complete, he would wipe all existance of this race from the face of his perfect universe... |
