Oh and i will be taking a break from this series and try to work on another one to see i would fair with a completely different story. Fear not, it doesn'tt mean that i will stop working on the titanfall series, just a small break from it for now.


"Docking in at bay 5 now sir." The spectre said from the cock pit, the dropship slowed to a crawl when it had an visual of the dragonova. Troy held on to the railing when the change in gravity kicked in, the landing gear kissed the ground with a thud before staying still completely. As soon as the side door opened, a swarn of MRVE assistants chirped happily that the captian finally returned home. "I have no time for Chit Chat fellas, we have work to do." He said, squeezing pass most of them aside which made a display of a sad face on their chest monitor. It didn't take long for troy to make his way to the bridge where Valkyrie and spark resided in. "Welcome back captain, im guessing you brought no souvenir back from the surface hmm?" Val asked from the terminal, "if you wanted a souvenir then you should have came down with me and get one yourself." He responded back while taking a seat at the captains chair, once everything was said and done, he removed his helmet fully, taking a long breath of recycled air.

"Eyes on the northstar, where are they taking her?" The stalker typed in a few keys before a video feed took up the entire window of the bridge, it showed the recon drone following a small convoy driving through a heavy traffic freeway. "The titan has a tarp covering her from the public eye but we can see her clearly, recommend orbital bombardment on the convoy so can recover what's sir." Spark asked, "Im not going to kill a bunch of animal people just for one titan. They must be taking her to their base or something, we will follow for now" Valkyrie turned to look at troy, it took him off guard when she talked with a low, worried voiced. "What are we going to do once we reach their base?" Troy didn't bother looking back at her. "They stolen IMC property val so i plan on taking back what was mine in the first from them, by force most likely. I know how you feel about all this but if they are able reverse engineer our tech and create their own titans then we are fucked!" Spark immediately jump in; " i agree with the captain, we cannot risk this Valkyrie, we will do what is necessary." She turned back to her terminal without saying another word.

"Spark you are with me on this one, especially if things dont go as planned. Val you provide orbital support from the dragonova." He pressed a small key on captain's terminal and waited as the screen switched to the quatermaster. "Welcome back sir, you summoned me?" The red spectre asked. "Yes we are preparing for an assault on enemy facility, protocol omega black. I need some battle ready mark 3 spectres and a few titans too. No drop-pods this time only dropships."just as troy said that, MRVE wrokers immediately sprung into action as the quatermaster nodded nonchalantly, "of course captain, we will be ready in a hour, what type of titans do you require for this operation?" He thought about for a moment before smiling at her. "Prep me a legion and a prime ion, the one val recently upgraded. Oh and spark will be dropping in too so give him what he needs." She nodded once and again before cutting the feed

"Sir the convoy has stopped moving, it appears that this is their base." Spark said out loud, troy could see multiple structures lined up perfectly beside one another, some soldiers clad in camouflage uniforms marched around the base while others were at the firing range or operating on heavy equipment. "Look there captain, they are moving the northstar to that bunker!" The drone quickly zoomed in on truck carrying the titan to a small building in middle of the facility, the gate slowly opened for the vehicle to drive in while the rest of the convoy parked nearby. "So the place is much bigger than it seems, just my luck. Everyone we will reach the base with transports only, warp in to drop our troops, warp out to get another squad. Val drop our titans on my command when im down there." Troy eventually got up from his chair and made his way to the hanger where spectres were standing by their designated goblins. "You there, i like your gun. Let me use it for second." Troy said as he calmly took a L-STAR LMG from a nearby spectre's hands, the machine hissed at him for taking its weapon before returning to position which made troy chuckle. "Sir, the titan's you requested are ready to drop. Goblins are fueled up and hot, troops are green and functioning. On your orders we can launch the assault." The quatermaster boomed over the hanger's intercom system, he gave his equipment and ammunition one final look over before strapping the weapon to his back with his extra batteries place on his vest. "All units commence the assault immediately, lets take back what was ours." Just as troy said that, everyone moved together in unity. The dropships roared to life, their rear deck slowly dropped open so dozens of spectres could embark them at a time. Troy casually walked inside one that was close to him and sat down near the cockpit, it didn't take long for the goblin he was in to fill up with robotic soldiers that were ready for a fight.

Troy felt everything slightly shake as they begun to re enter the planet's mesosphere. He looked through the small window to see dozens of the same ship going the same direction as him, their noses buring red hot as they slowly made the decent. "Troy, the dragonova will be right on top of the base in a few minutes. Once she is in position, we will be able deploy reinforcement more quickly." Val said in his helmet, he felt uneasy going through with this. Attacking and possibly killing another intelligent species just because they captured something that's not theres but then again, he couldn't risk them learning everything about the IMC, about humamity, they would be terrified of what he was capable of and would try to lash out which is something he rather not be responsible for, all he needs to do is recover the northstar and be done with it, even if it means ending some lives. "All transports, jump in now!" He yelled as Small distortions poped up around the ship as its engines were warming up for a warp. It took only a second to make the jump but it felt like an eternity as the space around him compressed and stretched followed by flickering orbs of light clouding his vison, all he could do was close his eyes and wait until it was over. He never was a fan of this method of travel but it couldn't be helped at the moment. He looked around to that the spectres were of course unaffected by what just transpired a few seconds ago, standing idly up until the rear deck opened with a gust of air rushed inside. "All targets are considered hostile, engage at will." Troy said while trying not to throw up from the nausea, one by one, spectres leaped from the ship to the ground below.

It didn't take very long for the fighting to erupt, some opened fire at the sight of uninvited guest, while others were completely taken by surprise. Spectres immediately sprung into action as troy was the last to jump out, not single one of his troops said a word as they took cover and returned fire after landing. He too ran for cover as bullets flew past his head, hitting a spectre square in the chest instead. He looked ahead to see a Small female dingo a few metters west of him with a assault rifle was laying down suppressive fire towards his position. "Sorry about this but you are going to be my first kill." Troy said while taking out his own weapon and pulling the trigger, the L-star was originally meant to quickly take down indigenous wildlife all throughout the frontier but due to its efficiency of vaporizing organic matter, titan pilots adopted it as their prefered LMG for clearing out large clusters of enemies, a weapon that could only exist in science fiction. Red bolts of energy ejected from the barrel and quickly went down range towards the intended target, the dingo stumbled back as a single bolt hit her in the thigh leaving sparks of red electricity coursing through her body. Before she had a chance to scream or even hit the ground, she exploded in a small cloud of red mist, causing Those nearby to stare in shock at where their comrade once stood. "I didn't say it was gonna be a pretty sight love!" Troy yelled while taking aim at soldiers running for cover, more bolts of plasma sprung out and made contact with the runners. All of them shared the same fate as the dingo by exploding into balls of red mist, it didn't take long for the defenders to realize that the figure in the helmet was probably the leader so they focused all of their weapons on him. "Troy the Dragonova is in position, titans are ready for deployment." He heard val said over the comms to his relief, "you cannot believe how bad i wanted to hear you say that right now, get a Legion down here now!" He barked. "Roger, prepare for titanfall!"

The inhabitants were having a difficult time fighting the spectres but it didn't stop them from focusing some of their attention towards troy who retreated behind a tank that was undergoing maintenance. The sky lit up as a object came crashing down towards the base, the ground shattered as it landed in between the opposing groups. "Drop successful, awaiting further orders pilot." A imposing voice said out loud, he knew that it was the reinforcement he was hoping for but it still caused a smile to spread across his face. "Anything that is not me or any of the spectres here are enemies, make it rain!" The titan slowly pulled out a large minigun from his back as it was the only weapon at his disposal but it was more than enough for the job at hand, spinning it up and taking aim. His weapon could be heard throughout the entire base as its 40 millimeter anti material rounds tore into the landscape with ease, troy heard countless screaming from a distance but he drowned it out as he made his to a nearby building that looked had large flag pinned across the front entrance. He kicked open the door and moved in with his weapon at the ready. " gotta find some sort of documents or location that could lead to what im looking for." He mumbled to himself while opening the first door to his left but was instantly met by a figure let that out a snarl before grabbing troy by the shoulders and tossing him across the room ending with him choking out an 'oof'. "Hey there big guy! im guessing you are not here to give me a tour of the place huh?" Troy spat as he tried to take aim with his LMG but his attacker was quick to respond to his actions by using her tail to flick a small mug that was resting on a desk directly at troy's face, leaving a small crack on the visor, causing to jerk back. "Fuck! I can't believe you did that." He said astounded at what just happened.

She closed in on him and grabbed hold of his weapon, causing it discharge towards the air. "Let go you little cunt!" Troy grunted as bolts of energy scorched the ceiling while a consistent beeping could be heard indicating that the his weapon was overheating just before the barrel and battery pack melted from the abusive use, making it temporarily useless. The female tiger made a toothy smile as she pinned troy to the floor with her knee to his chest, "I'll have your head for stepping foot on my base!" She growled. Her tail lazily swish side to side. "Sounds to me that you are the boss of this place eh! You are exactly what im looking for." She cocked her head to the side in confusion before being suddenly tackled by a spark, locking his arm around her neck so she wouldn't move about. "Thanks for the save buddy, i owe ya big time." Troy said while calmly getting up. "The pleasure is all mine captain,i saw that you were getting your ass kicked so i thought maybe you needed some help." He said while still maintaining a firm hold on the officer. "Ok spark you don't need to rub it in, i had her where i wanted her until you showed up." Troy moved in to examine the blue striped tiger, slowly tracing his index finger up her body, she flinched when troy slowly moved his hands lower towards her waist, clearly enjoying her being uncomfortable. "You may not be human but you sure as hell have the curves of one." He said while grabbing on to her behind which casued her gasped. Troy then proceeded to reached out and grabbed the woman's key card and badge that was cliped to her chest. "Regardless, i have what i need, might as well kill her." Spark nodded as he landed a hard jab towards her liver, causing internal bleeding. She tried to scream out in pain but spark immediately went for her mouth, grabbing on to her lower jaw. "I'll leave you two love birds alone, have fun." Troy said while turning to leave. The stalker wasted no time with the tiger as he slowly pulled her jaw apart, using all of his robotic strength. "Your species is tough beast but you are no where close to what to our level, die knowing this." Spark whispered as She tried to push him away but it was pointless, it dawned on her that she was gonna by die some walking talking machine. The rage that was building up inside of her was soon replaced by pure fear as the spark continued to stretch her mouth. Tears flowed freely from her eyes as she heard flesh tearing and blood dripping, with one final heave, the stalker yanked off the lower jaw of the tiger. A pool of blood surrounded her before collapsing to the floor with a thud. "Im not even surprised how quickly you died, a pitty it had to be here." Spark said, tossing her jaw to the said and leaving the corpse behind alone.

"Warning, hostiles are engaging me with heavy explosive projectiles. Sir request permission for the activation of my smart core to hunt down targets?" The behemoth said over the comms channal. The titan moved at a snails pace around the base while still using his predator cannon to shread through anyone or anything that he deemed threat. " that's a negative, just keep em busy for the time being. Val im gonna need ya to drop down the prime ion, no point in keeping her up there." Troy said when he walked out of the building he was in moments ago. "Copy that troy, she's coming in hot and heavy in 30 seconds, please make some room." Just when val finished her sentence, another fireball fell through the sky followed by ear splitting sonic boom. A sizable crater was made when she crashed into the surfaced, kicking up chucks debris in her wake. "Titanfall successful pilot, i seek orders from you." Said a feminist voice off in the distance. "Nice of you to drop in but im going to need ya for moment, just stay close to me and provide security." Troy responded while examining his LMG, he was going to need to replace a few components but it wasn't that important at the moment. "Roger, guard mode activated." The ion said, getting up from crouched position and made her way towards the pilot. The ground shook with every step she took until finally standing before the him. Ion titans were considered a jack of all trades due to their ability to adapt to any given situation in the frontlines. Laser-focused, she is all about power. With a central energy system that fuels all of its offensive and defensive abilities, the Ion is an effective, tactical force within the frontier. "Detecting multiple targets in our area, they appear to be engaging our forces from fortified positions." She stated. "Attack at will but stay close to me at all times, i dont feel like getting shot today. Legion you may use your smart core to chop down their numbers, make it quick!"

"Yes pilot, activating smart core." The titan said after ejecting a drum magazine out and loading a much bigger one to the minigun before spinning it back up again. He suddenly twisted his body and fired towards troy, the ion was unfazed by the unexpected action but troy quickly scurried behind one of the her legs, almost tripping over his feet in the process. Not a single round touched the pair but instead tore through a couple of soldiers who were hiding by some stacked sandbags behind them. "Give me a warning before doing that!" Troy screamed to the top of his lungs while checking himself for any bullet holes. "My apologies pilot, redirecting smart core." The titan replied with what troy could had sworn he heard a chuckle from him. A simple machine to operate but the most expensive due to the advance targeting hardware planted on their backs. A legion's smart core grants them the capabilities of identifying and targeting anything within its line of sight. Each predator round contains a miniature motor which enables them to alter their trajectory mid-flight, hitting targets well after the titan is no longer directly looking at them. They are the most brutal and yet requires the least amount of skill to operate, perfect for rookie pilots. Troy watched as the legion stood in place, slowly rotating his weapon in all directions, "confirmed 36 K.I.A's and counting, facing little resistance, will maintain combat stance until further notice." He boomed triumphantly out loud for all to hear.

It didn't take long for the pilot to reach the entrance of the underground facility, the structure was low to the ground with a reinforce blast door taking up much of it, sealed from the outside world. "Alright ion, i gotta get through that door so would you kindly open it for me?" Without a moments hesitation, she grabbed on the doors outer frame and with a few good pulls, tore off the chunks the door from its henges. "That had to be a couple hundred tons of metal and you made it look like it was nothing!" She tossed what was left to the side and peered inside, leading towards a large elevator shaft. "Thanks to my upgraded chasis, i am able lift up to 2500 tons easy." She cooed softly. "Well love, im going to need ya to use that strength to guard this area while im down there, vaporized anyone that is not me so it's a easy job for a strong lady such as yourself." He said. " affirmative, good luck down there pilot." She responded back.
