Karl was caught in the hailstorm of fire, taking a shot square to the left shoulder, the computer registered it as having the armor blown off, so the vernier's there ceased functioning, jinking to his left the swung his beam saber at Eddy as he got close, knowing that not even he could avoid the slash during a maneuver like that. |

As he saw Karl's Rick Dias taking damage from the typhoon attack, Edward saw a beam saber being ignited and being swung at him. Seeing that there was no way out of it, Edward watched as the dummy saber sliced through the Nemo, registering the Nemo as now 'dead'. Laughing over the COM channel, Edward said to Karl, "Good work, Black Dawn. You played well, and I proved that I can pilot decently again. I think I'm suited to get back out there." |

(Gonna intro our little friends) "Yeah you did good, had it been anyone else that move would have fragged them," Karl laughed, "You've definitely improved, but you still need to work on your close in work, next time we can focus on that." Karl's main control panel began to beep, a warning signal that new contacts had been detected, with the tapping of a few buttons a sensor readout popped up next to the image of Eddy, "Hey looks like we have some unexpected guests, from what I can tell it's at least one ship and a compliment of suits, no clue who they are but they'll be here in less than five minutes, holler back to the Gibberish and have them send out that new contraption they sent with the Nemos. |

"I always had trouble with sword-fighting; why do you think I became a sniper in the first place?" Edward said to Karl, chuckling as he did so. With the session over, the simulated damage was erased, and all the Nemo's systems came back on-line. Floating over to the jettisoned shield, Edward reattached it when he heard Karl's message about unidentified targets. Recieving the okay from Karl, Edward opened a channel to the Gibberish, saying in an relaxed yet firm tone, "Gibberish, this is LeNoir. Karl and me have spotted an group of unknowns approaching us at high speed. Send out the dual shield booster through the catapult, and I'll intercept it." A few minutes later, Edward picked up a radar signal that was approaching him fast. It was another of Anaheim's new toys, a dual shield booster inspired from a design used by a Titans machine. He wanted to try it out, and it seemed like the perfect time. Using the shield latch on his backpack, Edward grabbed the dual shield boosted and secured it to his backpack. "Karl, it's Eddy. I have the dual shield booster attached. Got any new data on our unknowns?" |

Karl was already on his way to intercept the unknown units, he'd racked his saber in favor of his other beam pistol, "No not yet, use the boosters on the shields to catch up but don't fire till I say so." Finally came within view of the mysterious ship, it was one of Zeon's late production high speed battleships, painted a deep blue instead of the bright red it had been when it had come out of dry dock, it was escorted by 12 mobile suits by Karl's count, 7 Zaku II's, 4 Dra-C's and a Rick Dom in the lead, "Eddy, you better get up here quick man, we're in trouble" |

Recieving Karl's message, Edward tied in the thrusters on the dual shield booster and activated them in concert with his suit thrusters. Thrust back into his seat by the speed, Edward managed to catch up with Karl in no time. Stopping next to the Rick Dias, he sighted the enemy ahead and radioed in to the Gibberish, "Gibberish, this is LeNoir. We have a confirmed hostile force of Zeon remnants, comprised of a single Tivvay and several Zaku IIs, Dra-Cs and a single Rick Dom. We're moving in to engage. Out," he said as he radioed over to Karl and said, "Karl, I know these are your fellow kin, but we need to make sure they don't kill us or anyone in the fleet. You ready to kick ass?" |

"Doesn't matter if they're my kin, look at the symbol they have painted on the ship." Karl pointed to the distinct marking of the Zabi family crest, a marking he knew only too well, "These guys were my enemies even when we fought on the same side, let's take em before they can get to the Gibberish." Karl fired his thrusters and rocketed towards the ship and it's escorts, as he got closer it's name became visible, Middray was spelled across its bow in bold golden letters, sighting in he fired a shot from each of his pistols at the closest Dra-C. |

Following Karl in, Edward noticed that some of the suits, specifically three of the Dra-Cs and two Zaku IIs, were in a group, forming a defensive shield around the Middray. Watching Karl attack one of the Dra-Cs, Edward saw a chance to severely cripple the Zabi loyalists. Deciding that it was time to see if that typhoon move would work again, Edward activated the diffuse beam barrier and began spinning around in the "Inferno Typhoon". Firing his mega particle cannon, a trio of beam rifle shots and a flurry of vulcan fire at the group of suits, Edward broke off after performing his attack and took cover behind an old wrecked Magellan. |

Karl: The Dra-C fired it's huge shoulder vernier's and slid around the pistol shots, responding with it's weak 40mm gun, landing minor hits on Karl's torso, though this did nothing to slow Karl down in his rage, he charged the unit firing another pair of shots at trying to force the pilot away from his position in the picket. NU: (That's not how the diffuse beam shield works in U.C. NU, it's more like a big spray beam cannon I think) The group of pilots saw the strange new attack coming at them, thinking quickly they all spread out, making it harder for the concentrated attack to hit more than one of them, which it did when it hit one of the Zaku's dead square in the chest with the mega particle cannon shot. Seeing their comrades' killer taking cover behind the old ship's hull the group split up, two of the Dra-C's went above and began to spam the wreck with their vulcans while the remaining unit and the other Zaku split up and took the hulk from both sides, with the Dra-C closing in quickly with it's beam saber, slashing for Eddy's shield boosters while the Zaku covered him from a short way's out with a pair of 120mm machine guns. |

(Oh, okay. Thanks for the clarification) Edward saw that his attack had managed to kill one Zaku, but it had unleashed the others on him. Quickly moving from his compromised cover, he'd raised his shield. Taking the weak vulcan fire from the Dra-Cs, Edward activated the thrusters on his dual shield booster, and exited his situation by moving to the left, narrowly avoiding the Zaku and the Dra-C. Edward had managed to gain some distance between him and the pack. Turning towards the pack again, he decided to see what would happen if he used the mega particle cannon and diffuse beam barrier in tandem. Firing both at the same time, he watched as the mega particle cannon turned into several smaller shots that were heading for the wolf pack. |

(Alright I'll help Nu. All hail ZEON :P) Fredrick Loar Rick Dom Fredrick saw the his comrades falling around him. "I can't allow you to continue this black suit." Fredrick watched as his sights locked onto Karl's Black Rick Dias. It gleamed red and he pulled the trigger twice, firing two shots form his Ex-T2-2 Beam Bazooka. |

(Actually Orrick, that thing needs time to charge in between shots) Karl jinked around the vulcan rounds this time, closing in on the fast but clumsy Dra-c, getting in close he delivered the kill shot with a beam pistol blast to it's crotch section, detonating the unit's huge fuel tanks, as he did so a single huge beam shot rocketed past his suit, it'd come from the Rick Dom. Swiveling he fired off a shot from his right pistol while racking his left and grabbing his beam saber. (Again I think it's just a short range thing NU, like if some missiles get in close that's what it's for, hence the term "barrier") The "Wolf Pack" scattered before the shots could reach them and began attacking form several directions at once, the Dra-C's coming in fast from above with their beam sabers while the Zaku came from below, still firing it's pair of 120mm machine guns. |

Seeing that his attack had no effect, Edward decided to see if he could get rid of the Dra-Cs first. Storing his beam rifle inside his shield, Edward whipped out a beam saber and charged towards the two Dra-Cs. Their beam sabers also activated, he was about to enter melee combat with them when he fired his mega particle cannon towards the one on the left at an angle before breaking off, storing his beam saber and pulling out his beam rifle. Targeting the Dra-C on the right, Edward fired a shot towards the torso. He hoped that it would hit either the fuel tanks or the shoulder thruster pods. He then noticed the Zaku still firing wildly. Beginning his Inferno Typhoon again, Edward fired a trio of beam rifle shots, accompanied by vulcan fire at the Zaku II before breaking off and heading towards a cloud of wreckage. |

The Dra-C that had been targeted with Eddy's MPC slid around the shot with remarkable grace for a unit that wasn't known for it, he noticed hisopponent's attention was one his fellow Dra-C pilot, who died from a blast to the chest, the enemy then began his strange attack again, this time on the Zaku, who jinked out of the way of the powerful but clumsy attack, thinking quickly the remaining Dra-C's, came in behind Eddy on either side, slashing at him with their beam sabers. -------------------------------------------- Meanwhile Karl's opponent died more quickly than he'd hoped, though it wasn't surprising as only a few pilots were ever able to to survive ms to ms combat with such a clumsy weapon, shifting his attention he popped off a couple of shots at the Middray and then started an attack run on a pair of Zaku's who had begun firing their 90mm's at him. (ok from now on you take care of my opponents and I'll take care of yours.) |

Seeing that he had managed to take down one of the Dra-Cs, Edward was still pissed off at the fact that a pair of last-resort MS managed to evade his attacks. Seeing that bloody Zaku II still standing, he was getting a bit hyper. However, he kept his mindset on the moment. His sensors detected the two remaining Dra-Cs heading towards him from behind, their beam sabers obviously set to 'skew'. Edward, thinking fast, used the shield booster thruster to propel himself upwards and then downwards at a 45-degree angle. Firing at the Zaku with his beam rifle and vulcan guns, Edward made a hard turn and fired his mega particle cannon, along with two more beam rifle shots towards the Dra-Cs, hoping at least one would get caught in the crossfire. ____________________________________________________________________ The Middray, despite its enhanced speed, was unable to get out of the way of the beam pistol attacks. The small wing on the right side of the bow was blown off, and the hull suffered a small breach. Emergency bulkheads lowered to contain the air. Meanwhile, the Zaku quickly dodged two of the shots, but a third blew off the right foot, hampering its mobility. |
