Enyo saw the other shot hit him in his right shoulder, sending armor debris flying into space. He immediately boosted to the right, then stopping to fire the Mass driver. Each pointed slug burned gold as it was launched across space to the FRAME sniper. After each firing he moved again to the right, about a hundred meters before firing again. While it just looked like he was preforming circles, he was actually slowly creeping onto the enemy while still avoiding any shot. [Enyo/Star Catcher suffered a light wound to close in on the Enemy FRAME.]
< @Andraina > As Freya approached the missile Troopers (OOC: This was a mistype on my part. Missile FRAMEs = Troopers... Imma give you a FRAME, though like you asked.) A large FRAME outfitted with missile launchers of every size and style lumbered out from the group. "I'll be your opponent." He chuckles before launching a salvo of twenty missiles in varying directions, all locking on Freya while he fires a laser blast from a wrist mount. [ One-on-One with the Missile Destroyer ] < @Xaphen > Enyo closed in certainly, but seemed to have forgotten the missiles, alarms chirping as they got closer and closer... Suddenly, one of the Troopers appeared, wielding two swords and cutting the missiles, causing them to detonate harmlessly. "Corporal Malai Jiriko, Sergeant Enyo. You can thank me later over dinner." She says, getting into a battle stance. [ Fight the Sniper while using Malai as support ]
"Then its a date, Corporal. Oh and its Sergeant Arcadia to you." Enyo said as Star Catcher let each booster down its back push itself forward. Less than 100 meters on the Sniper, Enyo radioed the Corporal. "Jiriko, flank it from the rear, when you get close enough, we will both go in for the kill" Right after the order was given, Star Catcher's left wrist shot out a Red beam blade. He readied himself for melee combat, charging forward, with the occasional "bounce" keeping it's path not strait at all. "Sergeant, this Prototype is meant for range combat, while the Beam weapon is available to use it is supposed to be used only in dire need." Beta chimed in to inform Enyo. "I dont remember asking for your advice or for information Beta" Enyo snapped back. "Affirmative" Beta said before disappearing again.
< @Xanxas > "Hey... don't worry..." Yalei must have overheard the conversation between Kyras and Seryu "We...w-won and..." She coughed "W-we're all... still alive... Kyras... Thank you... I... think...I... L-l-l..." and she fell unconscious. < @Xaphen > "Yes sir, Enyo!" She called in response to her orders, moving with skill and grace unseen in most Troopers. The sniper saw their plan, shooting a round at Malai, who deftly dodged. "She'll need to do better than that to hit me, Enyo. In position." She said, charging forward when Enyo does to cut the sniper to ribbons.
OOC: "Like I asked" because these Duels are going swimmingly for us... She takes a breath, "Very Well, Come!" She spoke into the open comms dodging the much faster beam instinctively. Agalia muttered, "This is..." Freya giggled, "Bad. Yes. Shall we dance?" Agalia nodded, "I hope the FRAME feels lighter." She nods as she started to move towards the enemy frame, "Yeah! Good work! Keep an eye on my blind spots." She said taking a shot at any missile that'd reach her first. She was calm, she was prepared, and right now she was not cocky. This enemy needed to be taken down, otherwise the ship might be in danger.
"True, we aren't dead yet. Seryu, be a dear and make sure I don't die while I'm gone" He had known this was coming for a while. The bloodloss, the pain, the likely ead trauma. He just enough time to witness the first of the SCARABs crawl out of 'his' skin and begin battlefield repairs before he drifted off to the sound of his SOUL panicing. She didn't have such organic problems you see. Lucky gi....................
< @Andraina > While Freya was occupied with the missiles, the Destroyer launched even more, Laughing his face off, probably. It was clear that he intended to keep her dancing until She could not handle the sheer volume of explosives. Indeed, they were beginning to come faster than she could shoot, any forward momentum lost completely. [ Whatcha gonna do? You can take a gambit. ]
Enyo was right in front of the Sniper FRAME, him and his new partner about to cut the FRAME like scissors. Right before Enyo was in striking range he disappeared. As if he teleported out in front of the mech. Enyo bounced right on top of the Sniper, his Mass Driver cannon aiming down at the enemy. As soon as the sniper saw and even before Malai could strike, a single slug flew directly down the middle of the FRAME. Cutting it in half entirely and leaving two dull floating husks. A few moments pass as Star catcher sat still. Probably awaiting orders or relieving himself after the duel. "I didn't pull the trigger Beta..!" Enyo scolded to the air, waiting for the reply of his SOUL. Beta slowly appeared, almost glitching in and out as his hologram appeared. "You hesitated, so I took the action so we may continue. I believe they selected you because you wouldn't freeze up. We are attuned to each other." Beta coldly replied before disappearing again. "I...we are heading back to the carrier." Enyo said before going to the Radio to speak to the Corporal. "Alright lets head back, any major situations have changed, Corporal?"
Freya growled, So much damn firepower, and asking what her parents would do was stupid, since the answer is 'rescue the other.' She was overall pinned down. Mid range combat was the absolute worst! "Thoughts My darling little sister?" Agalia sighed being the best one to consider anything going on at the moment, "Just one but you won't like it." Freya blinked, "So you mean I should?" She grinned excitingly as Agalia screamed "NO! You haven't prefected that yet!" Freya frowned, "Then what? I play Javelin with Enduring Winter?!" Agalia nodded, "Yes." Freya's Eyes narrowed dangerously, but she gasped almost forgetting to dodge through the small space two missiles coming at her, "What if I miss?! I'll lose Mama!" Agalia countered, "And Mama will be very sad if you lost like this! I've already calculated the throw! Please trust me Big Sister!" A red targeting circle appeared on her HUD as she roared in frustration. She continued to dodge for a few seconds more until she found her chance spinning away from another missile. Freya cocked her arm back watching the reticule turn Green before launching the Lance with everything she had towards the enemy "Please!" she pleaded with Providence.
< ORBIT TEAM > The broadside guns screeched as the became engulfed in an orange aura, Firing their Heavy slugs at The approaching Destroyer. Most were simply absorbed by the Shields of the Splinter Starship, and it countered with a forward barrage of its own, with the same result. "Unison, Arcadia, Bishop, Assault the Incoming Destroyer, disable its guns if you can!" Ordered the commander. < @Xaphen > "Negative, Enyo. Orders are still to hold this... wait... New orders incoming." As Corporal Jiriko heard the new orders, she sighed. "Better go to it, Enyo. And come back, you owe me dinner." She says before launching off to rejoin the battle. < @Andraina > The Destroyer obviously did not expect the course of action taken by Freya, and he screamed shortly before Enduring Winter pierced the cockpit, killing the Rider instantly. Perhaps the souls of her parents were truly with her. At that point, she was able to dodge the missiles, retrieve the spear and received her new orders. < @Shadhunter > [ 65 Bladesmen ; 85 Riflemen ; 32 Missile Troopers ; 7 Corvettes (No strikes) ; 2 Frigates (No Strikes) ; Destroyer (15 front-mounted guns, each a boss) ] [ Everyone can Destroy up to 15 Troopers on the way to the Destroyer, take a Medium wound each ]
