Space Invaders!

[cityship]

After everyone and all of their ships were properly loaded the Quarter had launched successfully. The journey from Stacy to the Trojan Asteroid field trailing NiSaris took several hours, but they managed to approach the field with the people of the nearby world being none the wiser.

The problem was that the NiSarians weren't the only ones watching the skies.

As the Quarter approached and entered the asteroid field, all was quiet. But it was only going to be a matter of moments before that would change.

"Kira, behind you!" Hilde called out, firing the beam cannon (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/w/lineart/oz-12sms-beamcannon.jpg) that her Taurus had. She was surprised to find that she had all the different armaments for the suit before she launched. The beam cannon was powerful and made for space combat.

After firing, she quickly transformed the suit into it's mobile suit form and began firing at the Ohm whenever she could. Still, her stance was mostly defensive. The mass produced suit wasn't as strong as the Gundams and couldn't take as many hits.

"--A Taurus?" Duo mumbled, although he wasn't exactly in a position to allow himself to be getting distracted right now. Nonetheless, he definitely recognized the voice he heard belonging to the unit.

"Hilde!?"

Now there's a voice she's wanted to hear for a while. She couldn't let herself get distracted. They were in the middle of a battle.

"Duo? This isn't the time to get distracted! We've got a battle to win."

"To everyone out there, when and if you have something you can't shake on your six, call in hot. I've got your backs and a lot of heavy missiles - I'm just not going to risk heavy fire into a dogfight... but I can clear space for you if you catch them chasing you."

"Skull-1 to Monster," the voice crackled as Michael flipped his Messiah through enemy gunfire, looking for a good sniper position.

"Just make sure you warn us before you open fire."

Waaaait, he know that voice.

"Skull-2 to Monster," Zouichi said. "Take care of yourself out there. It'd be a shame if we lost that ship."

He was being nice, really!

"I'm just back here on point and shoot duty. If anything gets back here, we're all in trouble. Just call in if you need artillery support."

Yeah, he probably recognizes the voice on the other end. He can save who he likes and doesn't like for off-duty. Right now, they're all on the same side, and everyone gets the same fire support. War comes way before grudges.

"You can say that again!" He muttered, though he went silent for awhile as another wave of Shrikes required his immediate attention, slicing through one before fending off another.

Eventually, though, his confusion was distracting him more than than he could take. "I thought you left OZ?"

[goodenuff2kill.livejournal.com]

"I did leave OZ. I stole this unit from White Fang before the final battle at the Space Fortress Libra. This isn't the time, Duo," she said, her voice making it clear that they could discuss this later, like once they were out of a combat zone.

An explosion rocked the Freedom as one of the Shrike's psychic lances made contact - but Kira had reacted in time, catching it on his beam shield. "We can't get distracted with chatter like that!" He said to the squadron, concurring with Hilde.

He'd never been a commander of a squadron, and the weight rested uneasily on his shoulders - especially now. It was so much easier just using his strength to save others.

Well, he could do that too. The Freedom's DRAGOONs burst off its wings, engaging the foe in a flurry of beam fire.

"It's not--!"

With a ragged huff, he dropped it, choosing instead to focus on a pair of Shrike hot on his tail. Dropping out on them to end up behind them, he nailed one with his buster shield while firing off a spray of head vulcan fire at the other as it did a U-turn after him. It didn't appear to be enough, though, and the Shrike came rocketing after him before he had a chance to recover.

"Oh sh--!"
