Lirath - Ground Battle

 After dropping off some of the crew at Balisair, it was time for the crew to set course for Lirath. The situation greeting them wasn't the most promising.

The cracked surface of the moon called Lirath was one of its most unmistakeable features. One of the three moons of the planet Kehoe, it had been terraformed and served as a settlement for a hundreds of different species, some humanoid, some not. Despite occasional class struggles, environmental issues, and speciesism blocking their way, the darker parts of Lirath's past were largely left behind, and an era of peace and tolerance had reigned for quite some time. The only problems they'd had recently were with a terrorist group whose cause for their actions had been a mystery, but they weren't tied to any particular species or social group and had been likened to a cult and had largely gone quiet in recent years.

Now the peace on the moon of Lirath had been shattered by the invasion of the Ohm.

The capital city had been destroyed. Now, all that was left of the peoples of Lirath was evacuating from one of its smaller cities, one known as Smyteval. A desert city, existing in a valley in between a rocky range of canyons and mountains, even though it was in the low ground, the natural channels of rock served as bottlenecks for any Ohm attacking from the ground.

GIA squadrons patrolled in space, locked in explosive warfare, protecting the Bleed-gate that had been activated to see the evacuated ships to the refugee world, and a shield created by massively-powerful shield generators extended around the city and up into the atmosphere, creating a shielded tunnel so ships could escape.

Word had come that there was a vital weapon to be deployed on Lirath, one that needed to be destroyed, hence why the Transmigration 9 had been called in. Given the diverse crew, and the ships that were in its hangar, there was at least someone or something on board that could blow the weapon up if it did show.

There was no sign of it yet. Right now, there was just chaos, streams of evacuees boarding ships, armies of Ohm engaged with GIA soldiers outside the shields, and forcefields that everyone hoped would hold out just a little bit longer.

The crew would be following Leon's orders but finding themselves fighting side-by-side with GIA platoons, full of various species that were currently all getting their asses kicked severely.

"AQUA-NEESAN!" Sasami cried out again, watching her sister fall for the second time. It was heart-wrenching to watch one of her sisters get hurt like that. As the wounded Tank finally fell to Negi and Will's assault, the other two attempted to finish the job on Aqua, only to have Ryo-Ohki come down and intercept them, using her massive size to protect her "owner" and her friends.

At the same time, Sasami herself ran to Aqua's side, hoping to help her once more.

Negi nodded, moving back. "Focus on the tanks you two!" he called out. "What'd you need me to do?" he asked quickly.

Aqua nodded at Sasami to let her know she was all right before turning back to Negi.

"I need to form a D-Link with you. It'll let me use your powers and vice-versa, the same way Sasami's doing. Right now, I've almost exhausted my powers, and I need time to regain my strength."

[identity profile] hisfathersstaff.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
Negi nodded quickly. "Do what you need to do. I'd offer to form a pact with you, but we've got no time for that right now."

He held out his hand for her to do whatever she needed to do.

Will just moved to start blasting another of the tanks with her lightning, while the Mech ran out of bullets and started trying to bash one of them over the head with it like a club.

[identity profile] saint-sami.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Annoyed, the Tanks started to thrash, knocking away Ryo-Ohki and attempting to swipe the mech away. With both Negi and Aqua out at the moment, it felt almost hopeless.

Or at least it would be if Sasami didn't act. One of the Tanks came to a halt as it caught the massive energy "blade" she had formed once more.

"I won't let you hurt my family! You hear me?! Not again!" Sasami shouted, giving every last ounce of strength to fight the best and make it not race forward.

[identity profile] rainfell-aqua.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Aqua formed the D-Link quickly and began to activate it when she heard Sasami engaging the Tank.

"Sasami!" she cried, racing over.

In a flash, her Keyblade changed form (http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b100/Akino_Annwyn/Britt.jpg) to a white-and-blue blade, forged from her bond with Sasami. She held out Lighthawk and formed a barrier around Sasami so the Tank wouldn't harm her.

Negi stepped to the side, forming a lightning blade, hurling it at the Tank that was attacking Sasami, his blade crackling as it was thrust at the tanks head.

[identity profile] kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
Will kept throwing lightning blast after lightning blast at the attacking Ohm, while the Mech was knocked over for the moment, it's large gun, and the arm it was attached to, going flying and thankfully landing far away from the group.

The mech rose back to it's feet, before charging at the tank again, thrusting it's one remaining limb back and then forward into a punch at the tanks head.

Sasami looked back as she heard Aqua call her name. If she was surprised by anything, it was the design of the Keyblade in her hands. The hilt resembling that of Tenchiken, the Master Key and the sword Tenchi normally uses; the blade resembling that of the Light Hawk Sword.

"Aqua-neesan... your weapon..." Sasami uttered, faltering just a bit, thought not noticing the beast's head starting to crack from the energy.

The other Tank, however, kept its focus on the mech, ready to tear it apart with its mandibles with Will next.

"It's all right," Aqua insisted. "It's the help you've given me."

Accessing Negi's power, she unleashed a barrage of arrows at the Tank.

[identity profile] hisfathersstaff.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
"And that's my help," replied Negi, unleashing a volley of light spears at the opponents.

[identity profile] kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
And there went another blast of lightning towards the tanks as the mech continued to try punching at the tank. And Will didn't really have much to say, she didn't really know anyone here that well.

[identity profile] saint-sami.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
They will really have to change that, Will. Especially Sasami.

Raising back her "blade", she pulled back enough and let out a yell as she brought it down, slamming it on the Tank's head, finally breaking through and cleaving it in half. As the Tank dropped to the ground, dead, the last Tank caught hold of this and began to charge at the four once more.

[identity profile] rainfell-aqua.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
A barrier of wind formed around Aqua to protect her from the attack, and she sped in close, striking with the Keyblade while summoning lightning.

[identity profile] hisfathersstaff.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
*SNIFF* "Little Sasami's all growing up and cleaving Tanks in half...!" exclaimed Chamo happily, Barry giving him an approving "rrrrrrt".

Negi smirked as he joined in Aqua's headlong charge, twin executioner blades erupting from his knife-hand position to cleave some of its arms off.

[identity profile] kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Will let lose a large powerful blast of lightning right as the mech continued to charge towards that remaining tank, fist moving to repeatedly smash into it's skull.

[identity profile] saint-sami.livejournal.com 2011-08-18 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
Sasami, however, was in no position to make an attack - the strike had drained her once more, mostly due to using up so much energy.

However, Ryo-Ohki would be glad to take her place once more, having recovered and taken back to the skies, firing bursts of energy at it as Aqua, Negi and Will's assaults began to weaken it considerably.

[identity profile] rainfell-aqua.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Aqua rushed at the Tank again with another speeding charge. Backing away, she raised the Keyblade in the air and summoned more lightning right on top of it.

[identity profile] hisfathersstaff.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
Thrusting his fist forward, he tapped the last remaining tank on the head and stated, "Emmitam Dextra."

THOOM. A point blank tornado crashed towards it.

[identity profile] kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
Will sighed, taking a deep breath as she looked over at the tank, her hands still held up, ready to fire another blast if it still seemed to be alive. At least, that's what she hoped, she could barely stand right now.

[identity profile] saint-sami.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
With the damage taken from the trio, the final Tank finally gave way, collapsing to the ground.

"We... we did it. We..." Sasami uttered, staggering a bit before falling back into the snow.

[identity profile] stormfall-aqua.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Aqua let go of the D-Link, feeling the return of her own powers--including just enough power to cast Curaga, spread out to all four of them.

"Heal!" she called out. "We made it."

[identity profile] hisfathersstaff.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
"Cura," added Negi, mending small wounds as well. "I'm okay over here. Everyone all right?"

Thud. "SASAMI!"

[identity profile] kandrakar-heart.livejournal.com 2011-08-19 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
Will let out a sigh of relief, before stumbling forward a bit. Thankfully, Aqua's healing spread over her. "Thanks. I think we should... probably get somewhere away from all this fighting though. We're pretty spent."
