"Quick! Box formation! Firing line!" Grizz yelled. The cadets quickly got into a tight formation, and the first couple of rows knelt down. All of them pointed their submachine guns downrange, towards the base. The few moments of silence was deafening, and the anxiety pushed their hearts into their
Squadrons Nightraven and Thunderbird raced towards the enemy base, determined to cause as much damage as they possibly could. If Grizz was going to sacrifice himself and his squadron, then they were going to use the time wisely. Sunflower popped up on their comms display. "Just please get Grizz' s
Djinn made sure to use a few extra explosives. A bit of overkill never hurt, right? As everyone was busy with their tasks, the elevator platforms suddenly went to life and started to descend. "We've got movement!" yelled Chengli. No doubt the hangar had activated another floor, and was going to r
"Aim for the sensors!" she ordered. "Quickly!" Nightraven immediately dished out bursts of fire from their rifles. Any of the shots that struck armor were completely neutralized. Even the powerful beamcannons only left scratches. The armor itself was a computerized, mechanical alloy that adjusted

When they arrived back at the encampment, the wounded were immediately taken into the field hospital. It was a small heavily reinforced building next to the encampment, where experienced medical staffers from the training yard had posted up. A team of doctors, nurses, and orderlies quickly got into
"Is that any excuse?!" retorted Chengli. His anger was as sharp as a knife. "You all led your cadets - your friends - to their deaths! So what if he was gonna hit you? Take it! Take it so your cadets don't have to!" The two squad leaders' mouths gaped at Chengli's bitter words. He was a hundred pe
But a lie of that magnitude was always fragile. And not too long ago, it had shattered. "I take full responsibility," said Grizz. Everyone's jaws collectively hit the floor. What he had said was so astounding that no-one could say anything in response for some time. Eva and Chengli were especially

The hab itself was sparsely decorated and seemed barely lived-in. There was a small pile of personal things in bags and boxes in a corner of the large living room, which appeared to be the effects of the small family that had moved in. It seemed that they had just taken possession of the hab itself
The pup came to a small group of human and drogar children, who much like his own brethren were running around and playing with each other. They laughed and giggled as they chased each other gaily through the park. Unlike his brothers and sisters however, the pup found some excitement and enjoyment

Kali shivered slightly as she recalled that moment in time. Her body hunched over slightly as she grasped and embraced herself in an attempt to comfort the way she felt. More than that, her voice started to crack and waver as she spoke. “Everytime I looked at him, at anyone I tried to ‘be’ with, a
“Hey, you doing okay?” Amal asked her quietly. “You look like you could use some company.” She climbed up on the outcropping where Kali was, and set herself down next to her with a warm smile painted on her face. “Yeah, I guess,” Kali replied. “Just going through some stuff, nothing too bad.” “Fe

Her heart practically leapt out of her chest as she ran towards Lucifer. The sight of hir caused tears to well up in her eyes. They practically came streaming out by the time she reached hir pod. She placed her hands on the clear canopy as the desire to sweep Lucifer up in her arms overtook her. Fr
“Wonder how many people in the galaxy have three ultra rares,” she muttered to herself. “Something tells me it’s just me, at least for now.” There is also a high priority note from Raijin, her DI noted. Would you like to review it? Freya nodded. — Dearest friend, Welcome back to the land of the
