Part 1

The year is 2112 on planet Zalsturm. The planet Zalsturm had many species live on it, the all were humanoids mixed with an animal characteristics. The differences of cultures for many millenniums caused many problems and started infinite wars After many world consuming wars and great losses of life all the countries that remained signed a compact to end the many wars that engulfed the once beautiful planet. Even though the compact end most wars, there were still small-scale skirmishes. These battles were not battles with men alone; they used mobile battle suits or MBSs. These suits are about 900 ft tall and very durable and easy to manufacture for war. Once the compact was sign the production of these suits were slowed but not stopped. All armies became disband as a sign of good faith for the compact. Even though the armies had been dismissed, the bases still stood and held supplies for warfare. The men and women that were station at each of those bases became renegades and toke supplies form each base. These renegades were hunted by everyone in hopes to save the peace the strived for.

"Hurry up we are going to have company," I said over my intercom. I am a 9'5" red dragon, broad built and very strong. I was in my MBS covering my team while they loaded the transport with the supplies. "We'll be done in ten minutes" one member said. "That's not good enough," I said, "the "police force" will be here in 5". The team increased their pace to get out before their pursers come. I was scanning the area with the scope on my suit's gun and I picked up a target about 20 miles out. Shit, they're here sooner than I thought. "I hope your almost done there ladies I have a tango 20 miles and closing so far he is the only one". "We filled transport 1 and transport 2 is about 50% full." "That's good enough one diver for each transport everyone else hijack as many MBS as you can we may need them in the future." Once everyone is ready to move plan overlord goes into effect. "I love plan overlord", someone said over the com lines.

It took my team 5 minutes to get into position. "Are you idiots done yet? They are almost on top of me!" Another member of the team laugh and said, "I told you we should only fill one, but nooo you said bring two, we could have gotten out by now. "Shut it all troops move out; troops in MBS cover the transports tell sector C-4; when you arrive there take ambush points, I be coming in hot so be ready, and lastly" I took a short pause "don't Fucking shoot me like last time! My team laughed and moved out, I had the fun job I rushed the incoming tangos to divert their attention on me. "Man I don't get paid enough to do this shit" I said, I engaged the tangos in close combat with my laser sword, "this is too easy" I said as I sliced thought their ranks. Their skill was not even close enough to lay even a glancing blow. I had a bad feeling as I chopped them apart, "Where is their seasoned fighters, they never are this easy." than it hit me I fell for their trap I was busy fighting the small fries while the big guns went for my team. "Fuck, I need to hurry to my team." I started to go to sector C-4 with the rest of their fighters on my tail. "This is Big Red to team Scavengers over" I said over the intercom, "Where are you over". There was no answer. My heart started to race. "Hold on guys, I'll be there shortly." I turned on my boosters to full blast and raced to see what happen.

As I reached sector C-5 my radar and com line got jammed. "Shit, I was right I hope they have the upper hand." Many thoughts rushed my head; I tried to shake them off to keep my head clear. "Come on Red, stay calm or "it" will happen again." Suddenly I saw flashes of light that comes from our beam rifles. My team was engaged with a large force. My boosters were stating to overheat so I had to turn them off. I looked around to see if my pursuers were behind me. Nope, I must have lost them when the radar was jammed I aimed at the battle to find my team had all members in MBS and the transports gone. "Time to have some fun" I aimed the beam rifle at the rear row of attackers. "Take this you mother fuckers," I rained a barrage of beams that annihilated the enemies' support gunners. Beams start to rush by my suit; I guess they just found me again. I pulled out my laser sword again, "Round 2, who's first." This time I could see how many there was, "only 25, you'll need more to kill me." I rushed them again only this time they were ready and jumped out of the way for the opening attacks. "So you wised up but, can dodge this." I change my attack pattern taking out half of them. The other 12 started to retreat. I hoped my rifle had enough time to cool. I took my first shoot and downed the farthest troop. It took a mere 2 minutes to drop them all. "I shouldn't have taken my time." I rushed over to see the battle was over; we won. The interference was gone, I contacted my men, "Did ja miss me boys." "Where are you we were just attacked sir"? "I saw I was the one that even the odds." I heard one say I told you so." "Let's get back to base to discuses what happen.

"Any casualties?"

"No but, we have injuries.

Who?

Captain White Fang, Captain Black Heart, Captain Yellow Paw, Captain Green Claw, and Captain Blue Tongue.

"Damn it that's my elite squad, how bad were there injuries?"

"All minor, nothing serious they could get back into the field at any time."

"That's great to hear and lastly how is all of our MBS conditions."

Your team's suits are need of great repair they were nearly destroyed, yours, however; just needs repair to the rifle and the booster pack.

I'll repair my MBS personally. You're dismissed.

Sir

I explored the base, "Even though I been in this base for a century yet it always looks different." I started walking towards my suit and I notice the wrecked suits. "We took a big hit," White Fang's suit lost its right arm, Black Heart's suit is missing both legs, Yellow Paw's suit was missing the left side, Green Claw's suit was missing its right leg and, Blue Tongue's was the most damaged with its legs missing and holes though the whole suit. "I knew he was my best but he pushes his luck, I knew many pilots that shared his abilities, they always die in the biggest explosions or in flaming balls of glory. Now my suit was the oldest suit model and yet was the most advance with all the upgrades I manually added over the course of my life. My rifle and boosters were removed and set in front of my suit. "The gun is fried and the boosters are toasted, it's not going to be a fun fix but I fixed worse.

Several hours went by and I was still working on my suit. All of the repair work was finished and yet, I was not done. I went over every detail of my old friend and still I felt something was wrong. "Come on buddy what's wrong with you." Suddenly I saw a small flash next to my suits eye. I went to inspect it immediately. What is this little- I froze when I knew what it was. The base got silent only thing you could hear was my voice as it said, "Everyone Battle Stations!"
