[Gentlemen, start your engines]

(Isn't Jayden coming along for the ride? o3o)

(Nope, not this time. XD)

(Ah, I see. Well, let us begin then.)

Chapter I: A Plea From Beyond The Stars
The Monteiro Brothers, Liam and Blade were in their base in Imsterdim, Eurish, sitting around and minding their own business. Liam was listening to music and Blade was refreshing the oil supply of his robotic pet bunny, R.A.B.B.I.T..

Meanwhile, in Genesis City, Downunda...

Out in the Zarvokian capital of Genesis City, were two individuals walking upon a sidewalk, one of them a red furred male hedgehog, and another a light cyan furred female hedgehog, as the two were walking together. The latter had her left arm around the former's right arm, as they seemed to be a couple, enjoying a walk in the marvelous city "It's a nice day out, isn't it Josh?" The female hedgehog spoke to the male, referring to him as Josh, or as his actual name was Joshua "...Indeed it is, Marilyn. Glad we picked this day to go out on a walk" Joshua said to the female, referring to her as Marilyn as she smiled at him.

Meanwhile, out of Mobius' orbit...

A Galaxy Knight Cruiser was on its way to Mobius. The Cruiser held two Galaxy Knights: Master Geronimo Kind and his Student Francis Townley. They were sent by Queen Pamela Williams of Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy to find aid in their battle against the Twyops, who were attacking the Sector 5 planet known as Xanooiecatl.

(Just so you know, the Galaxy Knights are based on the Jedi from Star Wars, and the Twyops are based on the Sith from Star Wars, and I got inspiration for this RP from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace.)

(Oh dear god XD)

Francis: Will we be able to find help in our battle against the Twyops on Mobius, master?

Geronimo: I'm sure we will, Francis. Queen Pamela sent us here for a reason.

Francis nodded as their Galaxy Knight Cruiser was making their way into Mobian orbit.

As they approached Mobius' orbit, they would see a few ships above one certain part of the planet's orbit, while there was a very large space station just casually orbiting the planet (i.e Space Colony: Ark). The station itself looked abandoned, but the ships themselves were not.

Francis: Look over there, master. It's a very large space station orbiting the planet.

Geronimo: Yes indeed, Francis. I wonder what took place over there...

Francis just shrugged and the Cruiser made its way into Mobian orbit, making its way towards Fort Zarvok.

Cruiser Pilot: We appear to have found a Mobian facility. Permission to make contact with it?

Cruiser Captain: Permission granted.

The pilot then made contact with the Zarvokian Command Center.

Before they could actually establish contact with the fort, the fort actually contacted them first on a secure channel "Unknown aircraft be advised, you are entering a restricted area. Divert course now or you will be shot down. This is your only warning, you have a few seconds to comply" A soldier said via the communication.

Cruiser Pilot: This is Sector 5 Galaxy Knight Cruiser #109, we come in peace. Can we talk to the head of this facility?

"State your business first, and we might consider it" The soldier replied.

Cruiser Pilot: We were sent by Queen Pamela Williams of Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy, because we require assistance in our battle against the Twyops on the planet Xanooiecatl.

"...We're not aware of this 'Queen Pamela', nor of 'Sector Five' and 'Xanooiecatl.' Nevertheless however, you have clearance to land outside of the fort. Send whoever you want to speak to the Faction Leader upon your arrival... but be warned, if you try anything, we will not hesitate to shoot you" The soldier said.

Cruiser Pilot: Roger that, we will send two deputies to see the Faction Leader.

The pilot then ended the conversation and landed the Cruiser outside Fort Zarvok, then opened the doors so Geronimo and Francis could get out. They walked up to the front gates.

The soldiers at the front gates saw Geronimo and Francis approach, before the two of them allowed them entry. When they would enter the fort, they would get some eyes looking over at them as the soldiers hadn't seen those two before.

Geronimo and Francis didn't mind as they went into the fort's main facility to talk to Adex Zarvok Burns, Faction Leader of The Zarvok Federations.

...Suddenly, they could see someone running up to them, a female red furred hedgehog from the looks of it, as she approached from their left side "Hi!" She said to them in a friendly tone when she approached, looking at them with a smile.

(I changed my mind, I want her in for this part XD) (Alrighty. XD)

Geronimo and Francis smiled back.

Geronimo: Hello, young lady.

She giggled when they referred to her as a "young lady", before giving them a curious look "I haven't seen you two here before! Who are you?" She asked.

Geronimo: I am Geronimo Kind, a Galaxy Knight Master from Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy.

Francis: And I am Francis Townley, Sir Geronimo's student.

(I'm packing in for the day, gotta get ready for bed. I'll see you tomorrow, hopefully.) (M'kay, see ya)

"My name is Jayden! It's very nice to meet you two!" She said happily to them.

Geronimo: Agreed.

Geronimo and Francis then went into the fort's main facility.

She proceeded to follow them to the fort's command center, her hands behind her back as she still had that smile.

Geronimo knocked on the command center door.

There was a soldier at the side of the door as he watched Geronimo knock on the door "...You know you can just enter, right?" He asked, as Jayden couldn't help but giggle.

Geronimo: Oh, pardon me. I'm not familiar with the systems in this foreign facility.

Geronimo and Francis then proceeded to enter the command center.

Jayden entered in as well, before she suddenly went in front of them "Pardon me! But why do you need to be in the command center anyway?" She asked them with a curious tilt to her head.

Geronimo: We were sent by Queen Pamela Williams from Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy to find aid in our battle against the Twyops, an evil intergalactic power who are attacking the planet Xanooiecatl in Sector 5.

"Ohh, okay! So that means you want to speak to my dad then, huh?" She asked them.

Francis: Yes, if he's available, we would like to speak to him.

"Okay! Follow me!" She said, before she suddenly ran further into the command center, going down a hallway.

Geronimo and Francis followed her.

Not before long, she stopped right in front of the door before she turned around to face them "This is where his office is! Just knock and he'll answer!" She said with a smile.

Geronimo: Alright, thank you.

Geronimo knocked on the door.

"No problem!" Jayden said, before she took off running in another direction within the hallways. At that moment, a male voice could be heard "...You may enter" It said.

Geronimo and Francis entered the office and closed the door. They then bowed before Adex.

Geronimo: Good day, sir.

Francis: Yes, good day.

When they entered, they could see a red male hedgehog with four bangs on his forehead and wore a black uniform with red and orange accents that was sitting before a desk "...Greetings. And who might you two be?" The hedgehog asked.

Geronimo: I'm Geronimo Kind, a Galaxy Knight Master from Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy, and this is my student Francis Townley.

Francis: Yes, that would be me. We were sent by Queen Pamela Williams of Sector 5 to find aid in our battle against the Twyops, who are attacking Xanooiecatl, a planet within Sector 5.

"I'm...not familiar with the sides nor locations you speak of... I assume it's somewhere far off in the different part of the vast galaxy?" He asked.

Geronimo: Sector 5 is located to the far north of the Mobian galaxy. As for the sides...How do I explain this...?

Geronimo got out a holographic transmitter showing a projection of a Galaxy Knight and a Twyops.

Geronimo: These are the Galaxy Knights, dressed in lighter colored clothing and carrying blue Energy Swords. They are on the light side, which includes Francis and me. And these are the Twyops, dressed in darker colored clothing and carrying red Energy Swords, they are on the dark side, and are our sworn enemy.

The hedgehog blinked "...So I see. Let me guess then... you require of my assistance in this endeavor, correct?" He asked.

Geronimo: Yes, we could use some of your best military power to come help us out in Sector 5.

Francis: We'd be very grateful indeed.

"...Unfortunately, there is not much aid I can lend. My nation's resources are still diverted to the war against the Keter Var Empire, while we recently recovered from an attack on this planet a couple of months ago... however" He said, before standing up from his chair with his hands behind his back "I can lend a few personnel to your cause... two of which I'd need to ask, and I have another two that have assisted us in the past" He said.

Francis: We'd be very grateful if you could lend us anyone. Anyone indeed.

"...Very well" He said, before he slid down something on his forehead to his eyes, as they looked akin to... Sunglasses? "...This is the faction leader. Please send corporal Sada and sergeant Connie to my office. Thank you" He said, before sliding the sunglasses back up to his forehead... what was that all about?

Geronimo and Francis curiously tilted their heads.

Francis: Were you talking to someone through those sunglasses?

"...It may seem like that, yes. However, that is simply not the case. These are Zarvokian BattleField Tactical HUDs. As you've seen, it allows me to contact others such as my personnel, provided they're able to get my communications anyway" He said.

Francis: Oh, alright then.

(By the way, are you fine with me putting a history of my lore on your Joshua the Hedgehog Database? I wanna keep it safe from possible vandalism.) (What do you mean by history?)

At that moment, two more individuals walked in. One of them looked to be an aqua green furred female Mobian fennec, who had pink eyes and short cyan hair, who wore a black chestplate with red outlines and orange shoulder pads worn above a black long-sleeved shirt, along with black pants with red armored knee guards that have an orange outline. The other looked to be human, who also wore the same uniform as the fennec, though unlike the fennec they wore a black helmet with orange accents and a red visor... from the looks of their body build, they looked to be female as well "...Ah, there you two are" The hedgehog said to them.

(Similar to the Zarvok Continuity in Greater Detail.) (Ohh I see. I don't mind then)

Geronimo and Francis looked at the fennec and the human.

Geronimo: This looks promising.

"Indeed. If you two may introduce yourselves, please?" The hedgehog asked the fennec and supposed human "My name is Connie, I'm a Combat Medic and sometimes a tutor" The fennec said to him "And I'm Sada, an experienced sniper and a Keterian defector" The human said... did she say she was a defector from the Keter Var Empire!?

Francis: You defected from the Keter Var Empire? Aren't they gonna hunt you down and kill you for that?

"They tried, but so far they never succeeded" Sada said, before gripping a strap on her shoulder that was an attachment to a holster on her back, which carried a sniper rifle "...Indeed. She's been with us ever since the Invasion of Laysomania" Adex said.

Francis: I see. And who are the other two who have helped your military in the past?

"...Ah, yes, the other two. They're Heroes for Hire, whose operations are in Eurish, their names are Liam and Blade. As for the other two that I also mentioned, they're fellow Zarvokians that are currently in Genesis City, their names are Joshua and Marilyn. The former two should help you out, while the latter two... well just tell them I send you two" Adex said.

Geronimo: Okay, if you can get Liam and Blade on the horn, we will go out looking for Joshua and Marilyn.

"...Very well. I shall contact the two once you go searching for the others" Adex replied "We'll be waiting for you in the meantime" Sada replied.

Geronimo nodded and he and Francis left the fort to go looking for Joshua and Marilyn.

In the meantime, Adex slid down his BFT-HUD once more to his eyes, as he attempted to establish contact with Liam and Blade over at Imsterdim.

Meanwhile, in Imsterdim...

Liam and Blade received the message and Blade answered it.

Blade: Hello, Blade Eastwood speaking.

"...Greetings" Adex spoke once Blade answered.

Blade: Ah, Mr. Adex, hello. Is there something you need from me and Liam?

"...Fancy you should ask. I am in need of your services once more" He said.

Blade: Certainly, sir. For what do you need our services?

"...If you may come over to Fort Zarvok, I may explain more upon your arrival" Adex said.

Blade: Certainly, we'll be on our way.

Blade then ended the message.

Blade: Liam, we're going back to Fort Zarvok in Downunda. The Zarvok Federations are in need of our services again.

Liam: Really? Heck yeah, I'm in!

Blade: Alright, let's get some stuff and then make our way to our airfield nearby.

Liam and Blade each packed a duffel bag with clothing, guns and some other stuff. Blade also took R.A.B.B.I.T. along, and put on a brown sheriff hat similar to Rick Grimes'. Besides the sheriff hat, Blade also wore a melon plaid gingham shirt with a tan trench coat over it, along with stonewashed blue jeans and wheat-colored boots. Liam wore a gray t-shirt with a black track jacket over it, as well black trousers and green sneakers. The brothers made their way to their airfield and got in a Titan. Blade started up the plane, and it took off for Downunda.

Meanwhile, Geronimo and Francis were out looking for Joshua and Marilyn.

...They may have came to realize that Adex didn't really give them a physical description, so it might've been hard to look for them. As for Joshua and Marilyn however, well, they were sitting down at a table outside of a cafe, enjoying a meal with each other as if they were on a date.

Geronimo: Wait, the Faction Leader didn't tell us what Joshua and Marilyn look like...

Francis saw Joshua and Marilyn sitting outside the café.

Francis: Maybe we could ask those two hedgehogs over there.

Geronimo nodded and he and Francis walked over to them.

Francis: Excuse me, we're looking for Joshua and Marilyn.

When they were walking over towards them, Marilyn appeared to be giggling as if Joshua said something funny to her. When they approached and asked their question, the two looked over to them "...That would be us" Joshua replied "Um... why are you looking for us?" Marilyn asked.

Geronimo: Your Faction Leader sent us.

"...Dad sent you?" Joshua asked them "What does he need us for?" Marilyn asked.

Geronimo: Come with us to your fort, and we will explain.

"...Very well then" Joshua said as he and Marilyn stood up, the latter of which quickly went to Joshua's right side.

As Geronimo, Francis, Joshua and Marilyn went back to Fort Zarvok, they could see Liam and Blade flying over them in their Titan as they tried to find a landing spot.

They indeed saw the Titan flying above them as they were flying over to Fort Zarvok... they couldn't quite see who was piloting it however. Nonetheless though, they continued their way over to the fort.

The Titan began nearing Fort Zarvok as Blade attempted to make contact with one of the control towers there.

Blade: These are the Monteiro Brothers Liam and Blade, do we have permission to land on your runways?

"Control tower to Monteiro aircraft, you have permission to land at the runway 2B, you may proceed with your landing" An aircraft control operator replied.

Blade: Roger, Control Tower, we will land at Runway 2B.

Blade then ended the conversation and landed the Titan at Runway 2B. He shut off the plane, and he and Liam got out. Blade then locked the plane and the brothers went into the command center, making their way to Adex's office. The brothers knocked on the door together.

"...You may enter" Adex said from inside the office.

(Why does he start most of his sentences with "..."? XD) (Seriousness. XD) (I see. XD)

The brothers entered.

Liam: Hello, Mr. Adex. We're here just as you requested.

Blade: Yes, what do you need our services for?

When they asked, they could see Connie and Sada sitting in chairs in front of Adex's desk, as the two turned to face them "...I'm glad you asked. Take a seat first however, and we'll wait for the others" Adex said, gesturing to four empty seats.

Liam and Blade nodded and they sat down two chairs. They then looked to Connie and Sada.

Blade: These ladies remind me of those badass females you see in movies and tv shows such as Terminator or Rizolli & Isles.

Liam: Yeah, I agree.

"Huh? Oh, um... thanks" Sada said while glancing at them... of course her face was still concealed by the helmet "Hehe, I'm just a tutor playing combat medic" Connie said while chuckling.

Liam: I see. I'm Liam and this is Blade.

(Calling it quits for today. See you tomorrow.) (M'kay.)

"Sada. Sada Dorsey" Sada said to them "My name is Connie, a pleasure to meet you two" Connie said to them.

Liam and Blade nodded. Geronimo and Francis then entered with Joshua and Marilyn. Liam and Blade looked awkwardly at Geronimo and Francis, because they've never seen them before.

Liam: Who the heck are these guys?

"...Liam? Blade?" Joshua said, confused that the two of them were there. Marilyn looked even more confused as she never saw the two before.

Blade: Hey, Joshua. Your father contacted us for something he needed our services for.

Liam: Yeah. So we took a plane and here we are.

They then saw Marilyn.

Blade: Well, well, who's this young lady?

"So I see..." Joshua said "Um... Hi. My name is Marilyn, and uhm... I'm a very good friend of Joshua" She said "...We're a bit more than friends, love~" Joshua said "R-Right" Marilyn mouthed, before placing her head on Joshua's should, thus revealing their relationship.

Liam and Blade smiled.

Liam: Aw, young love...

Blade: That's the sweetest love anyone can ever have.

Geronimo and Francis nodded.

Geronimo: As for us, my name is Geronimo Kind, a Galaxy Knight Master from Sector 5 of the Mobian galaxy, and this is my student Francis Townley.

Francis: Greetings.

Liam: Hey.

Blade: So, what's the catch?

"...Fancy you should ask. You two, please have a seat" Adex said to Joshua and Marilyn, who nodded before they took a seat right next to each other, as Adex cleared his throat afterwards "So, may you two explain the situation please?" Adex asked Geronimo and Francis.

Geronimo and Francis nodded and proceeded to do so. (I'm only doing this because they already explained the situation to Adex.) (Okay lol)

"Sector Five?" Connie asked "...Hm..." Joshua simply mouthed "Twyops? Xanooiecatl? ...Okay" Sada said "Um... s-so what will we be doing?" Marilyn asked.

Geronimo: Well, all of you will be flying into space with us and assist us in our battle against the Twyops.

Francis: Yes, that's what we're gonna do.

"A battle? Alright, point my rifle in any direction, and no one will see me coming" Sada said "Any wounds you have, I'll patch up" Connie said "...Direct me to the fight" Joshua said "Um... okay. But I'm only going since Joshua is" Marilyn said... everyone was on board with the idea it seemed.

Liam and Blade raised their hands.

Geronimo: Yes, boys?

Blade: We brought along some of our own weapons. Can we take them along?

Geronimo: That depends on how well they work.

Liam and Blade showed Geronimo and Francis their weapons. Geronimo carefully inspected them.

Geronimo: I'm afraid these aren't going to work...

Blade: Well, s**t.

Francis: Oh, dear, what language...

Liam: Pardon my brother's language, it's a bad habit of him.

Geronimo: I see...You could either use an Energy Sword or an Energy Blaster.

Blade: I'll gladly take the Blaster, because swords are for medieval loving b****es.

Liam: Blade, watch your language.

Blade: *sigh* Fine...

Geronimo: And what weapon would you like?

Liam: I don't mind using an Energy Sword.

Geronimo: Okay, well, we gotta get back to Sector 5, so we should go immediately. Is everyone ready to go?

"...Hold up. Why are their weapons ineffective?" Joshua asked.

Geronimo: Well, they work against the Twyops themselves just fine, but not against their battle droids.

Francis: And these types of weapons are banned in Sector 5. Queen Pamela isn't interested in primitive technology like the ones they have.

"...Battle droids? ...Okay" Joshua said while blinking "Well it's a good thing we have advanced technologies, right?" Connie replied.

Geronimo: Yes, your advanced technologies are allowed in Sector 5. Do you boys know how to handle them?

Blade: Joshua has trained me to use one before, but I'm not that experienced with them, to be honest.

Liam: I've never used the type of weapons that Zarvok practices.

Geronimo: That's gonna be a bit of a problem...

"But a problem we can fix" Sada pointed out "...She's right. With proper training, they can handle a plasma rifle or anything of the sort... might take a while however" Adex said.

Geronimo: I guess we'll have to stay on Mobius for a while until these boys are skilled enough with your Plasma weapons...

Francis: I hope the Galaxy Knights can hold out against the Twyops for so long...

"Well... not necessarily" Adex said "Doing so would take years to use one like my son can. But all they need is to known how to properly handle one, which can be done on the way there" He added.

Geronimo: That'll do.

Francis: Well, we could take along some of those Plasma Rifles for the boys to use.

Blade: Yeah. Also, I got a droid of my own. I'll show you.

Blade got out R.A.B.B.I.T., and pressed his nose to activate him. He then placed R.A.B.B.I.T. on the ground.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Greetings, lifeforms. I am R.A.B.B.I.T., a Robotic Android Battling Baddies In Time. I hope to be of assistance.

Geronimo: What can he do?

Blade: He can shapeshift, time travel, mimic voices, has a database of every person in time, he can fly and he has powerful laser eyes.

Geronimo: Laser eyes? Prove it.

R.A.B.B.I.T. then fired a red laser blast from its eyes through the wall of Adex's office, creating a large hole in it.

Geronimo: ...You proved your point.

Blade: Sorry for the hole in your office wall, Mr. Adex. We will pay for that.

"...For future reference, don't use weapons in here when you want to test them out" Adex said "Well, um... is everyone ready to go?" Marilyn asked.

Liam: I'm just about ready.

Blade: Yes, me too.

Geronimo: I'm just about ready to go as well.

Francis: Including me.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. However, we need two Plasma Rifles for Master Liam and Master Blade.

"Very well... I will grant the both of you two C-T59 Plasma Rifles, but only for the duration of the mission" Adex said "...Alright, let's get a move on" Joshua said, before he stood up from his chair along with Marilyn "Let's go help your queen" Sada said as she also stood up, with Connie doing the same as well.

Liam and Blade stood up too to go get their C-T59 Plasma Rifles. R.A.B.B.I.T. lifted off the ground and began to fly using its ears as helicopter blades.

(Also, should we give Jayden, Quentin, Sophia and Lucas a side story to this RP?) (Speaking of which... why did you include them in? I haven't seen them at all yet XD) (True, so I will have them show up in just a bit. XD)

The five of them watched them depart, before they faced Geronimo and Francis "So, will you lead the way?" Connie asked.

Geronimo and Francis nodded.

Geronimo: Yes, we will lead you towards our Galaxy Knight Cruiser.

Francis: Come with us.

Geronimo guided Joshua, Marilyn, Connie and Sada to the Galaxy Knight Cruiser outside the fort. Not too long after that, Lucas Pierpont Vincent and his son Quentin Mick Vincent, who was released from jail in 3237 and his sister Sophia Nancy Vincent entered Adex's office. They didn't ask about the huge hole in the wall.

Lucas: Who were those robed people we've never seen before, sir?

Joshua, Marilyn, Sada, and Connie walked out and followed Geronimo and Francis, while Adex saw Lucas and his two children walk in "...A couple of people who needed assistance is all" He said.

Quentin: I believe there's more to it than that, sir.

"...Oh?" Adex mouthed, before he leaned forward on his desk, while placing his hands together "Do tell then" He said.

Quentin: I think that those guys are taking Joshua, Marilyn, Mrs. Connie, Mrs. Sada and those friends of Joshua out on a super awesome adventure while we get left out.

". . ." Adex remained silent for a bit, as he remembered the whole incident that got him a year in prison in the first place "...Seriously?" He mouthed bluntly.

Sophia: Quentin just wants a piece of the action, sir. He just feels like one of those background tv show characters who just show up every now and then but don't do much.

Quentin: ...That's...exactly how I feel, sir. My apologies for sounding rude. I just feel like a spare shoe without a pair to match. Just there to step up if there were something to happen to the more favored Zarvokians.

(I sense some fourth wall break here... XD) (I was even gonna make Quentin say something like "I gotta get my agent to get me a bigger role." XD)

"...Okay... I don't know what else to tell you, Quentin" He said.

Quentin was silent for a minute before sighing in defeat.

Quentin: If there's anything I can do, I'll be reporting for duty, sir...

Quentin then left the office. Lucas and Sophia watched as Quentin walked down the hallway out of the command center.

"Very well" Adex said as he also watched Quentin walk out of the hallway.

Lucas: Sir, there's got to be something Quentin could do. The boy's been thinking no man cares if he's alive ever since he got out of prison.

"...I'm sorry, Lucas. There's nothing anyone else can do at the present moment" Adex said. In the meantime however, as Quentin was walking down the hallway, he could see a familiar looking female hedgehog that was wandering about in the halls... she didn't notice him yet.

Quentin indeed saw her, but decided to not bother her. He just sighed and walked outside, which probably got her attention.

(Going to pack in for the day. I'll see you at dawn. At least, when it's dawn in The Netherlands.) (Okay, see ya)

She indeed did notice him, and proceeded to run up to his side... of course she was not one to be bothered easily as, well, she liked pretty much everyone "Hi Quentin!" She said happily to him upon her approach.

Quentin: Hey, Jayden...

She gave a curious tilt to him as she was facing him "Hey, what's wrong?" She asked.

Quentin: Oh, some of the Zarvokians are going on a super awesome space adventure while I have to stay home and nothing...Ever since I got of prison, I haven't done anything as far as military duties go...I can't help feeling like a spare shoe without a pair to match...Just there to step up if something were to happen to the more favorable Zarvokians like your brother...

"Aw..." She mouthed, before she quickly gave a hug to his arm "But you don't need to feel like that, it's going to be fine!" She said with a smile.

Quentin: You really think so?

Blade: She's right, dude.

Liam: Yeah, everything's going to be fine.

Blade: Let me tell you something: I was once in your shoes: I lost a potential Freedom Fighting career because of change in fathers. I fell into depression because of it, it made me feel useless, like a burden on my family. I felt no man cared if I were alive. That's when a bartender told me: "There are other ways you can prove yourself, not just by being a Freedom Fighter and such." That's when I decided to try and become a hero in a different way, I got a bit of training, and I decided to work as a Hero for Hire, and look where I am today. If you believe in yourself, you will learn that you do serve a purpose within the universe.

(Where the hell did they come from...? XD) (From the armory to get Plasma Rifles. XD.)

Jayden turned around quickly when she heard them, even becoming a bit startled as well as she didn't even know they were at the fort "Blade? Liam? ...Hi!" She said to them with a smile.

Liam: Hi, Jayden.

Blade: Hi.

Quentin: Thanks, dude. I'll definitely try that.

Blade: Okay. But we gotta go now. We'll see you some other time.

Liam and Blade then went to the Galaxy Knight Cruiser.

"Not before giving me a hug you won't!" Jayden said with a giggle, before she ran up from behind to hug Liam first.

Liam giggled and returned the hug. Blade hugged Jayden next.

Blade: Stay safe, Jayden.

"You too!" Jayden said as she hugged Blade, and then went back to Quentin's side, waving Blade and Liam off.

Liam and Blade boarded the Galaxy Knight Cruiser.

Geronimo: Ah, you're here. So, you got everything? Didn't forget to pack anything?

Liam: Not at all.

Blade: I believe we got everything we need.

Francis: Right, off we go then.

Joshua, Marilyn, Connie, and Sada had already gathered their equipment, and had already boarded the cruiser. They were looking around to cruiser to see what it had to offer.

The Cruiser had a shooting range, up to 16 personal quarters, a meeting room with a table where up to 8 people could sit at, a medical bay where up to 16 people could be hospitalised, a workshop where weapons, droids and vehicles could be crafted and a tv room with a ping pong table.

Blade: Wow, this Cruiser's got quite a lot of additions!

Geronimo: Yes, Queen Pamela wants to ensure that the Galaxy Knights are well prepared for long trips, so we've added quite some features to our Cruisers.

"Hmm... interesting. Shall we, Marilyn?" Joshua said "Sure" She replied, as the two went to go find a personal quarters for each other. Sada and Connie went to go do the same as well.

The Cruiser took off for Sector 5 as Quentin watched with Jayden. Quentin sighed.

Quentin: Well, guess I'll just sit around in my quarters, doing nothing...

Jayden also watched, before she looked at Quentin "Can I come with? I don't want to leave you there by yourself!" She asked.

(Y'know, we should really think of a plot for a side story for Jayden and the Vincents.) (I can't think of anything tho XD) (I'll think of something as we continue.)

Quentin: Sure, you can come.

"Okay! Lead the way!" She said with a smile.

Quentin smiled back and took Jayden to his personal quarters, where he had a Shaystation 4. It had a game called Grand Theft Knuckles 5 in it, which featured a multiplayer mode called Grand Theft Knuckles Online.

Jayden looked around the personal quarters with interest, though didn't notice the Shaystation for whatever reason "Ooo. I never been in here before, it looks so nice in here!" She said.

Quentin: Thanks. It's not much, but it's home. Also, ignore the SnackDonald's bags in the room. I use them as trashcans.

"SnackDonalds? Um... okay!" She said before giggling a bit.

(I think I got an idea for a side story for Jayden and the Vincents. How about Graham Smithers' cousin has taken over the Inquisitors, and Jayden and the Vincents have to stop him?) (Okay) (Should we create a seperate RP page for the side story?) (I'unno.) (I'll make one.)

Quentin awkwardly chuckled.

She then clung onto his arm as she smiled.

Quentin smiled back.

"So what do you want to do?" She asked.

Quentin: Do you like shooting games?

"...Shooting games?" She asked.

Meanwhile, on the Galaxy Knight Cruiser...

After picking their quarters, Sada and Connie decided to explore the ship, Sada eventually coming across the firing range, where she began to practice with her Wextre Dark-Matter Sniper Rifle, while Connie went into the medical bay to see what sort of equipment they had. Joshua and Marilyn on the other hand, remained in their quarters.

Liam and Blade were practicing with their C-T59 Plasma Rifles. They were next to Sada.

Liam: Using these is a bit tough...

Blade: I've used one before, so it's a bit easier for me.

Liam: Understood...

They could see Sada lining her target with her sniper rifle, making sure her aim was precise enough, before firing a dark matter beam at a target, which aimed at it's chest region.

Liam and Blade hit their targets as well, aiming for the chest as well.

Sada glanced over to them to watch them practicing, but pretended like she wasn't watching.

Liam and Blade didn't pay attention to Sada watching them and continued to practice their C-T59 skill.

(Of course they wouldn't pay attention, she's pretending she's not watching XD)

Sada looked over to the targets to see how precise their shots were.

Blade landed more precise shots than Liam, which is logical, as Liam had never used a C-T59 before.

"...Hm" She mouthed aloud, before she went back to practicing herself.

Meanwhile, Francis was walking through the Cruiser and walked by Joshua and Marilyn's quarters. He decided to take a look and knocked on the door.

"...Yes?" A male voice asked from inside the room, sounding to be Joshua.

Francis: It's Francis. Am I allowed to come inside?

"...You may" Joshua said.

Francis then entered.

Francis: How are you two doing?

The two of them seemed to be on the same bed together, whilst cuddling with each other "We're doing okay" Marilyn said "...Mm-hm" Joshua mouthed in agreement.

Francis: I'm glad to hear that.

"Um... did you need anything?" Marilyn asked him.

Francis: I am just checking on you two, that's all.

"Oh. Well... we're alright for right now" Marilyn said "Mm-hm... so if it's not too much to ask, we'll like some privacy" Joshua said.

Francis: Yes, of course.

Francis then left the room.

After a long trip, the Cruiser arrived at the planet Oaf, the capital of Sector 5. The Cruiser landed outside of the royal palace.

Liam: Where are we?

Francis: We're on Oaf, the capital of Sector 5. Before we go into battle, we need to see the queen to let her know we've found aid in our battle against the Twyops.

Liam: Oh, I see.

The two of them nodded to him as he left the room, before the two began to snuggle up with each other for the entire trip, not even knowing they had landed. Connie and Sada on the other hand were aware, as they looked outside any windows present to see the palace "So this is where the queen is? I wonder what she's like" Connie said.

Geronimo: She's very friendly to those she considers allies, you'll like her. Come, follow us to the throne room.

Geronimo and Francis got off the Cruiser, with Liam, Blade and R.A.B.B.I.T. following them into the palace.

"Alright, we'll follow" Sada said, as she and Connie proceeded to follow them off of the Cruiser to enter the palace... before the latter realized they were missing a couple of people "Wait! What about Joshua and Marilyn?" She asked.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: My sensors conclude that they are still aboard the Cruiser, engaging in a strange mating ritual.

(...They're not having sex, you f*ck. XD) (I know, but since R.A.B.B.I.T. is a robot, he doesn't understand the concept of love and the things you do when you're in love, which includes cuddling. XD) (Apparently ' w')

"Um... mating? I don't think they'll be doing that at a time like this... let me go check" Connie said as she went to go back on the cruiser.

The rest of the group just waited for them to return.

Geronimo: I wonder what they're up to...

Blade: Beats me...

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative.

After about a couple of minutes, Connie came back into view with Joshua and Marilyn behind her, before the three of them approached the others "...So this is the queen's palace? Interesting" Joshua said.

Geronimo: Yes, it's quite a palace a queen like ours deserves. Now, follow us to the throne room.

Everyone proceeded to follow Geronimo and Francis to the throne room before they entered. Queen Pamela Williams was sitting on the throne. She appeared to look like a human, and she had a white painted face with dark red lipstick, black hair tied into a bun and wore a dark red kimono with green dress shoes and a golden square crown.

Queen Pamela: Ah, Sir Geronimo and Sir Francis, you have returned...Are these the aid you managed to gather from Mobius?

Geronimo: Yes, my queen, these are the Heroes for Hire Liam and Blade with their robotic companion, R.A.B.B.I.T., as well as Zarvokians Joshua, Marilyn, Connie and Sada.

Liam and Blade: At your service.

The brothers bowed in respect.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative, I am honored to be at your service.

"...Greetings" Joshua mouthed as he was introduced "Hello, ma'am" Marilyn said as she bowed politely "We're happy to aid you" Connie said "So, what do you need us to do?" Sada asked.

Queen Pamela: I need all of you to go out there with Sir Geronimo and Sir Francis to go battle against the Twyops, as they are planning to rule Sector 5 in its entirety.

"...Um. I'm pretty sure we're aware of that" Joshua said "What I mean is, how do you want us to do it? Like, where do we begin?" Sada asked.

Queen Pamela: You could start by taking out the Twyops that are attacking Xanooiecatl. Use any advanced weaponry you have to take them all out.

"...Very well" Joshua said "Do you know where they are?" Connie asked.

Queen Pamela activated a holographic map of Xanooiecatl in thin air.

Queen Pamela: The Twyops have captured the Galaxy Knight Airbase over here, the Galaxy Knight Outpost over here, and Galaxy Knight Citadel over here. Sir Geronimo and Sir Francis should lead you right to them.

"Okay. Which one are we getting first?" Sada asked, while she and the other three looked at the two galaxy knights.

Geronimo: We're going to liberate the Airbase first. Let's get back on our Galaxy Knight Cruiser and head for Xanooiecatl.

"Okay. Let's go" Connie said "Point my rifle anywhere you'd like" Sada said as well, while Joshua looked over at Marilyn "Are you ready for this?" He whispered to her "I... I'm ready whenever I'm with you" She whispered back "...Very well" Joshua whispered, smiling slightly.

Liam: Here we go.

Blade: Let's get going.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Alright.

Everyone exited the palace and boarded the Galaxy Knight Cruiser, which took off for Xanooiecatl once everyone was on board.

Joshua, Marilyn, Connie, and Sada followed them as boarded the cruiser.

(Seperating the chapters now.)

Chapter II: The Twyops Menace
Everyone was sitting around the pilot as the Cruiser made its way towards Xanooiecatl.

Liam: This is pretty exciting.

Blade: Well, I wouldn't exactly call flying on our way to certain death exciting, Liam.

Liam: True, true...

Blade: I think this would be a great way for everyone to introduce themselves and tell where they're from. I'll start. Hi, my name is Blade Eastwood. Together with my brother Liam, I'm from the future. I was born in 3249, on Bygone Island. When I was out on a family trip in 3267, I saw a group of vigilantes known as the Future Freedom Fighters out on a mission. That inspired me to become one myself, and I trained myself to perfection. However, I was turned down for the Future Freedom Fighters team because one of its members sensed a lot of fear in me. I became rather depressed because of it, and I vowed to get revenge on that member. Together with Liam, I stole an Eternity Time Watch from a laboratory and traveled back to 3236 to carry out my vengeance, which failed. However, with the help of Liam and a friendly bartender, I got motivated to try out a different vigilante career, after which I was given a brief training by Joshua and left with Liam for Imsterdim, Eurish, where we settled and became Heroes for Hire. Joshua, why don't you share your story with the group?

"...Eh? Me?" Joshua said surprised when Blade called him up to share his story, with Marilyn, Connie, and Sada looking at the two.

Blade: Yeah, tell us about where you came from.

"Er... well, not much to say really... though if you must know, I was born right after the Great War ended on Mobotropolis, and... well, the rest is mostly a blur besides when you came to me a couple of years or so, with everything happening afterwards should be known by now" He said with a shrug.

(Apparently he doesn't really like to talk about his past, which is understandable.) (No sh*t, lol)

Blade: I see. Liam, why don't you share your story with the rest?

Liam: Sure. I was born around 3257, in Station Square. When I was 5 years old, my parents were killed by a creepy human man with a gun. The human man escaped, and I survived the attack, after which I was sent to an orphanage. 3 years later, Blade's parents adopt me because they couldn't produce any more kids themselves after giving birth to Blade.

Blade: Yeah, my mama didn't have anymore eggs to hatch, so to speak. You, Mrs. Fennec, what about you?

"Oh, me? Well are you sure you want to know this tutor's story?" Connie asked with a chuckle "W...Wait, 3257? But that's almost two decades from now" Marilyn said.

Blade: I did say we were from the future, Marilyn. We know things that are gonna happen decaded from now. But we won't tell what.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: If you're interested, I could show you.

"R... Right. Um... no thank you, I don't want to know" Marilyn said to R.A.B.B.I.T.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. I won't show you then.

(If you wanna know what R.A.B.B.I.T. looks like, he's got pictures on Blade's page. XD)

Blade: Anyway, go on with your story, Mrs. Fennec.

"Right" Connie mouthed "So I was born on 3189 in Mobotropolis back when it was still around. When I was little, I thought about being a caretaker and a teacher. I worked hard and sure enough, I got a job as a caretaker. I cared for many children in my line of work. I even cared for Joshua when he was little when..." She paused before she gave a quick glance at him "...when his father went on vacation for a while. Then when Zarvok was founded, I was again called to care for him, and eventually I became his personal tutor. Though I also wanted to care for the other soldiers, so... I got a side-job as a combat medic with my expertise in healing. And sure enough, here we are now" Connie said.

Liam and Blade nodded.

Blade: Interesting. Glad you're doing well for yourself.

Liam: Yes.

Blade: Mr. Geronimo, why don't you share your story with the group?

Geronimo: Right, I was born on the planet Brevicia in 3198 (actually Mobius is thousands of years into Earth's future, so... yeh. XD). Despite all odds, I was born for greatness. I was named after my grandfather, who was a Galaxy Knight himself. At age 20, I enlisted in the Galaxy Knight Army and served them for a while. Then, my mother died and my father started drinking himself to death. I was forced to return home and care for my two brothers, all the while continuing to teach younglings the way of the Galaxy Knight, dedicating myself to my passion. Once my brothers were old enough to take care of themselves, I continued my service as a Galaxy Knight. About 5 years ago, I took Francis under my wing and Francis is close to completing his training as of now.

Liam: I see. I am sorry to hear about what happened to your parents, sir.

Geronimo: It's alright, my boy. It's all in the past, and I'm looking towards the future now.

Liam: Okay.

"...Mm" Joshua mouthed "What about you, Francis?" Sada asked.

Francis: I was born on the planet Overtropolis in 3202. I never knew my father and my mother became a moon rock addict when I was very little. As a young boy I heard many stories about how my father was physically abusive towards my mother, which possibly caused her to get addicted to moon rocks. My father left my mother when she was still pregnant with me. My mother's moon rock addiction led to her death when I was very young. Following this, I moved in with my maternal grandparents. My grandmother constantly spoiled me, and when I was in high school, I decided to become a Galaxy Knight. 5 years ago I was taken under Master Geronimo's wing, and, like he said, I'm about to complete my training as of now.

"...Hm" Joshua mouthed again "Well that's, um... interesting" Sada said "Mm-hm" Marilyn mouthed.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Your turn to share, Mrs. Marilyn.

"Me? Um... I'm not exactly... comfortable with that" Marilyn said.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Come on, don't be shy.

Blade: Hey, lay off her, R.A.B.B.I.T.. If she's not comfortable with it, then she won't talk about it.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: We're on our way to certain death, bonding, sharing our personal stories, and she's sitting here, soaking it up and giving nothing in return.

Blade: Pardon me for R.A.B.B.I.T.'s behavior. His 5A55 App was activated, I'll deactivate it.

Blade deactivated R.A.B.B.I.T.'s 5A55 app.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: I am very sorry for the words I just spoke. It won't happen again. I promise you all.

Blade: Okay. Mrs. Keterian, why don't you share now?

That furthered Marilyn's discomfort as she began having second thoughts about coming along in the first place, even with R.A.B.B.I.T's apology. It was only with Joshua realizing her discomfort and worries, which he pulled her closer to him and whispered "I'm not going to let you die" to her while providing her with some comfort, were those second thoughts suppressed and reassured. Seemed with Joshua, she was more confident to do anything. Sada on the other hand, looked at Blade "You're referring to me, right?" She asked.

Blade: Yes, I am.

"Well, alright... I was born on the planet Laysomania in... well I don't know the Mobian calendar all that well still to be honest, so I'll just say it in Keterian years. I was born on 3638 (exactly 426 years from 3212, her birthdate in the Mobian calendar). I had a good childhood, with a nice family and a promising future... but then I was conscripted when I was eighteen. Ever since then I was... treated poorly by my fellow comrades, and... it wasn't a nice experience. So much so that when Laysomania was invaded by Zarvok a few months ago, I was given a chance to defect and took it. And now here I am, in better hands as a Zarvokian sniper" She said.

Blade: Okay. Alright, only R.A.B.B.I.T. left. I was there, I'll back the facts.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. Master Blade created me when he was 12 years old, in 3261. He had a thing for building robots, so he built me and kept me as a pet/companion. I'm still extremely grateful for being created by Master Blade to this very day. I am forever in his debt.

"...So I see" Joshua mouthed "Blade created you? He must be quite the robotics expert then" Connie said.

Blade: I certainly am. I am actually planning on creating a robot squad. You see, your Mark I Fulgore has inspired me to do it. I am callling this project: Project: Bot.

"Project: Bot? ...Er... not exactly good with names I take it?" Joshua asked as Marilyn couldn't help but chuckle a bit.

Blade sweatdropped.

Blade: Not exactly...

"...Eh, it's fine" Joshua said while shrugging.

Cruiser Pilot: Brace yourselves, we're almost at Xanooiecatl.

Blade: You hear that, guys? We're almost there. Well, let's get ready for battle.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. I better switch to a more combat-suitable form.

R.A.B.B.I.T. then used his shapeshifting powers to transform into Mark I Fulgore.

"...Eh?" Joshua mouthed as he saw it shape-shift into Fulgore "Is that... Fulgore!?" Sada said, completely surprised.

Blade: Yes, R.A.B.B.I.T. is able to shapeshift into any person across time, including Fulgore.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. I like to use the form of the Mark I Fulgore as it is a combat-suitable form.

Cruiser Pilot: Brace yourselves, we're landing.

The Cruiser landed on Xanooiecatl and opened the doors so everyone could get off.

"O-Okay..." Sada said, surprisingly stuttered with that last bit as she backed up from R.A.B.B.I.T a bit. Joshua and the others then noticed them land "Mm, we're here?" Joshua asked.

Francis: Yes, we're here. Let's go and liberate the Galaxy Knight Airbase on this planet. We've got speederbikes for everyone.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: No need to get me a speederbike. I can fly by myself.

Francis: Okay. Gentlemen, can you get out the speederbikes for our guests?

The Cruiser personnel then brought out Galaxy Knight Jumpspeeders for everyone except R.A.B.B.I.T..

Geronimo: Have you ever rode a flying bike before?

Liam: Not really.

Blade: Me neither.

"A... speederbike?" Joshua asked "N...No, I haven't" Marilyn said "I don't think anyone of us have" Sada said.

Geronimo: I see...Well, we could give you all a quick tutorial on how to use one.

Geronimo and Francis both got on a speederbike and demonstrated how to use it.

The four of them watched as they demonstrated on how to use it "...So it's like a motorcycle. That means two are able to be on one, correct?" Joshua asked.

Geronimo: Pretty much.

"...Alright" Joshua said before he faced Marilyn "Do you want to share one?" He asked "S...Sure, I'd love to" Marilyn replied, which Joshua nodded in acknowledgement "That leaves one for the rest of us then" Sada said.

Liam: Let's go then.

Geronimo and Francis nodded. Liam and Blade each got on a speederbike as R.A.B.B.I.T., in his Fulgore form activated a hover function.

Joshua and Marilyn then got onto the same speeder bike, the former operating it while the later had her arms around him, holding him tight. Sada and Connie on the other hand got on their own speeder bikes.

Once everyone got on a speederbike, they took off for the Xanooiecatl Galaxy Airbase, which was taken over by the Twyops. Soon, the Airbase appeared at the horizon.

The four of them followed them on the speederbikes, while everyone eventually saw the airbase coming into view "So what's our plan of attack?" Connie asked.

Geronimo: We're going in, we're taking out all the Twyyops we can, we liberate the airbase.

"...So just rush in and attack?" Joshua asked.

Geronimo: Pretty much.

"...You may do that if you wish, but I believe a different approach is needed" Joshua said.

Geronimo: Okay. Do you have an approach that could work?

"Mm-hm. First we'd ought to recon the airbase first to see what defenses they have in store for us. Once we have an idea of their defenses, we'll plan accordingly for an effective offensive" Joshua said, which Sada looked at them "With my rifle, I'm able to see from afar. It won't take long for me to set up and look around" She said.

Blade: Okay, that should get the job done.

Liam: Yes, let's try that.

Geronimo: Indeed. Let's scope out the place and then go on the offensive.

"...Mm-hm" Joshua mouthed "I'll move ahead and scout them out. Wait here" Sada said to them, before she took off towards the base on the speederbike. She would stop however when she was halfway before stopping to a halt and hopping off.

The rest of the crew awaited Sada's return.

Sada then ran up to what would possibly be a hill, before she went prone on the ground with her rifle. She looked through her scope towards the airbase, as she began scouting it for any defenses it had.

There were men in white armored suits patrolling the base. They carried large blasters that would probably be the size of a C-T59 Plasma Rifle. There were also burly humanoid droids guarding the base, as well as heavily armored hovering jeeps with turrets flying around the base. Finally, the base was protected by a 5 layer Plasma shield.

"Hmm... they have a shield" Sada thought to herself, before she used her scope to begin looking around for the source of the shielding.

The source of the shielding did not appear to on the outside of the base, meaning it was somewhere inside the base.

In fact, Sada was actually looking in the airbase's interior perimeter rather than it's outer, as she continued to look for the source.

The shielding source appeared to be in the basement of the main command center (If that's what you mean by interior perimeter.). (No. XD) (Oh. XD)

While Sada didn't see the basement itself, she did see that the shield was originating from the command center of the airbase "Gotcha" She muttered to herself, before she stood up and ran back to her speederbike down the hill. When she got back on it, she headed back to the group to give her recon report.

(But... she didn't give it yet. XD) (*facepalm*) (It's still your turn, lol)

Liam: So, what did you find?

Sada came back on her speederbike just when Liam asked his question "I scouted their base. They have some white armored infantry accompanied by some automatons and flying... I'm gonna say jeeps. They have a plasma shield as well, which I pinpointed it's source to be at their command center" Sada said.

Liam titled his head.

Liam: White armored infantry?

Francis: I think she's referring to the Hurricanetroopers (An obvious take on the Stormtroopers from Star Wars. XD).

Geronimo: Yes, she is. Now, we have to find a way to bypass all of these defenses.

"...Hurricanetroopers? ...A rather odd name of an infantry class" Joshua said "Um... I have an idea" Marilyn said, raising her hand a bit.

Geronimo: Yes, Marilyn? What is this idea you have?

"Um... never mind, i... it's stupid" Marilyn said "...Nonsense, Marilyn" Joshua said to her while facing her "You can tell us. We won't judge you" He added in a compassionate, reassuring tone, before facing the others with a serious expression "...Right, guys?" He said... hoo boy, he didn't want them to insult her or anything.

Liam: We won't.

Blade: Not at all.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative, we won't judge her whatsoever.

Geronimo: The bunny droid's right, you can tell us, and we won't judge you.

Francis: Yes, so what's your plan?

Joshua nodded to them before he faced Marilyn "Okay, um... we can always just... infiltrate through the shield and take them out from the inside?" She said.

Francis: That could work, but how are we gonna do it?

"...We just walk through the shield so we're inside it's protection like the rest of them?" Marilyn said.

Francis: ...We could try that. Do the rest of you think this could work?

Geronimo: It's worth a shot.

Blade: I agree.

Liam: Let's give it a try.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative.

"R... Really? You want to do this?" Marilyn asked "...But of course Marilyn. After all, we're using their own protection against them" Joshua said "We'll follow through with your plan, hon" Connie said.

(Sometimes I'm thinking of cosplaying as JSB, though I think it'll be difficult to get his exact outfit together. XD) (...Oh god, lel)

Geronimo and Francis nodded.

Geronimo: Well, are we all set to go in?

"We are ready to go" Sada said "M... Mm-hm" Marilyn mouthed "...Let's take back the airbase" Joshua said.

Everyone got on their speederbike and charged towards the airbase.

The others proceeded to follow them on the speederbikes, with Joshua and Marilyn still on the same on, the latter holding onto the former tightly.

Everyone arrived at the airbase and barged their way into the base by going through the shield on their speederbikes. The alarms sounded and a huge shootout erupted as the Hurricanetroopers and burly droids began firing their weapons at the group. The group got into any cover they could find and drew their weapons. Liam and Blade began using their C-T59 Plasma Rifles that Adex let them borrow. Geronimo and Francis drew some blasters, which were their secondary weapons and fired them. As for R.A.B.B.I.T...He used whatever useful ability he had while taking on the form of the Mark I Fulgore.

Joshua and Marilyn would do go into cover, while the former simply drew his modified C-T59 out and fired at the hostiles, which he looked into the rifle's reflex scope as he fired semiautomatic plasma bolts. Marilyn on the other hand simply hit behind the cover for a bit, before drawing out her modified DR51 Plasma Pistol. She took a few breaths, and emerged from her cover to fire her pistol at the hostiles, focusing mainly on the burly droids. Connie accompanied the group as well, which of course she got into cover, before drawing out a pair of submachine guns, one of them a YN4 Dark Matter Submachine Gun, and the other was a C-T45 Plasma Submachine Gun. Although they were mostly suited for close to medium range, she emerged from her cover and fired anyways.

As for Sada, well, she preferred to be a distance as she stopped her speederbike way before the group did, which she took aim with her X9-ML4 Antimatter Rifle, and fired at any hostile whilst aiming for the head. As for R.A.B.B.I.T, if he was at a distance, he'd be using Fulgore's plasma beam visor and plasma hand cannons/flamethrowers. If he went up close and personal, he would be using Fulgore's plasma claws... and possibly any of the mentioned weapons above.

* WRRRRRRRRRRRRR* R.A.B.B.I.T., in the form of the Mark I Fulgore, began using the plasma hand cannons to pick off any hostile he could hit.

As the crew engaged in the firefight, the Hurricanetroopers and the burly droids began to succumb to the heavy amount of counterfire. However, more Hurricanetroopers and burly droids emerged from the base's barracks as well a hatch in the ground.

Liam: There's more coming out the barracks behind us! As well as that hatch over there!

Blade began taking care of the Hurricanetroopers coming from behind, while Liam dealt with the burly droids coming from the hatch.

Blade: The weather's stormy, hold on tight!

Geronimo and Francis continued to fire their blasters at the hostiles.

Francis: The Twyops are going to be one step closer to ruling Sector 5 if we go down!

Geronimo: The Twyops are one step closer to defeat if we make it through this firefight!

The others noticed the Hurricanetroopers coming in from behind, which Connie took measures to redirect her aim at the front to the behind, which she charged towards them with her SMGs firing at them. She wasn't necessarily speedy, but those dual-wielded SMGs of hers were quite deadly at close range. Sada would support Connie, firing her rifle at any Hurricanetroopers that looked like they could get the drop on Connie, while having to reload an antimatter canister whenever she reached seven shots.

Joshua and Marilyn on the other hand, focused their attention on the front, which the former was still firing his rifle at the hostile troops, occasional shots hitting his Chaos Shield, while shots zipped by Marilyn, who fired a few shots with her DR51 before hiding behind cover, taking some breathes as the situation was very intense for her. Though to help bring the situation closer to an end, she set the pistol down on the ground in front of her, and put her hands together... before slightly separating them, and a small fireball appeared in the middle of her hands, which got larger the further Marilyn's hands slowly spread apart.

(Sweet. C:)

R.A.B.B.I.T. continued to use Fulgore's plasma hand cannons, as well as Fulgore's plasma beam visor, ripping apart any hostile that got within firing range.

Liam continued to fire at the burly droids coming from the hatch from the front, while Blade supported Sada and Connie by continuing to fire at the Hurricanetroopers coming from behind. Geronimo and Francis did what they could do.

Connie and Sada were just doing what they were doing, the former having hostile blaster fire zoom pass around her as she was firing her SMGs... and then they stopped firing, which she noticed. Realizing what had happened, she tried as fast as she could to get into cover to fix the problem... as she had ran out of ammo.

Joshua meanwhile was still firing his modified C-T59 on the front lines, while Marilyn continued to make the fireball grow larger and larger... until it was the size of her head. Once it had reached that size, she emerged from her cover, and threw the fireball at the hostile forces.

A large portion of Hurricanetroopers and burly droids were incinerated by Marilyn's fireball, with the Hurricanetroopers screaming in pain. Liam looked at Marilyn in disbelief, not able to believe that she just did that.

Marilyn heard the screaming Hurricanetroopers and... covered her mouth in shock and guilt while her eyes were eyes were widened. She hadn't realized they were living people, and in turn made her go back into her cover with her mouth still covered. She didn't want to hurt no one, just the robots. Joshua while firing his rifle had noticed this, and was afraid this would happen. As such, since the two were in the same cover, he had stopped firing so he could snap Marilyn out of her shocked and guilted state by comforting her.

Blade continued to support Connie and Sada by firing away at the Hurricanetroopers coming from behind. R.A.B.B.I.T. took care of the remaining Hurricanetroopers and burly droids coming from the front.

Sada was still firing her rifle at the hostile troops, while Connie had already reloaded the plasma battery and dark matter canister into her weapons, and thus continued her assault.

Soon, all of the Twyops forces at the airbase were wiped out.

Geronimo: I think that's all the Twyops got at this airbase.

Connie and Sada were looking around the airbase to see that the enemy forces had been wiped out "We... got them all? That's quite surprising" Sada said while holding her rifle.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative, we have gotten them all.

Francis: We did good out here. But we're not done yet on Xanooiecatl. We still have to liberate the Galaxy Knight Outpost and the Galaxy Knight Citadel.

"Of course. But at least with the airbase, your people can take control of the skies again" Connie said. Joshua and Marilyn on the other hand... were not acknowledging the group in anyway, as the former was still comforting the latter about her shocked guilt over the Hurricanetroopers she didn't mean to kill.

Francis: Yes, we will contact the Galaxy Knights and tell them the airbase has been liberated so that they can return.

Francis then proceeded to contact the Galaxy Knights.

The two of them nodded in response, before Sada went to go patrol the perimeter in case any reinforcements came their way. Connie on the other hand just stood there and watched Francis, while Joshua was still trying to comfort Marilyn.

Liam and Blade kept an eye out for any reinforcements that might arrive.

Francis: Okay, the Galaxy Knights are returning to Xanooiecatl to guard the airbase. We'll have to stay here until they arrive.

"Okay, that sounds like a plan" Connie said to Francis, while Sada continued to patrol the airbase. Joshua and Marilyn still doing their thing.

Liam and Blade, along with R.A.B.B.I.T., who was still taking the form of the Mark I Fulgore, patrolled the base too.

(I love on how no one notices Marilyn lol) (Don't worry, I'll get on that.)

Sada was alongside them with her rifle in her hands, her keen eyes already on alert for any potential intruder.

Liam and Geronimo both noticed Marilyn's emotional distress and went over to her.

Geronimo: Hey, Marilyn, are...are you okay?

Marilyn was sitting down on the ground with her legs curled up, her arms wrapped around them, and her head buried in them, while Joshua was sitting beside her, trying to calm her down. He looked up at Liam and Geronimo when they approached, with the latter asking his question to Marilyn "N-No, I'm not" Marilyn replied with her head still buried, sounding quite guilty of herself.

Geronimo and Liam knelt besides Marilyn.

Geronimo: Was it about the battle with the Twyops troops?

"Y-Yes" She said, her head still buried and still sounding guilty "...It was the ones in the white armor. She... wasn't aware that they were, well, 'alive'" Joshua said to them.

Geronimo: I see...

Liam: Well, there's no need to worry about it, Marilyn. You did what you had to do to help the Galaxy Knights win back their territory. I'm sure you will be forgiven by the gods.

"G... Gods?" Marilyn mouthed confused, which caused her to slightly raise her head to face Liam. Apparently being religious wasn't the source of her guilt.

(I might not be religious myself, but I do believe in the afterlife. They call that a practicing atheist, I think. XD (Personally I'm an Agnostic, lol) (What's an Agnostic?)

Liam: Oh, I was referring to the gods above. I kinda believe in a Mobian god.

Geronimo: I think religion is not why she's distressed, Liam...Tell us, Marilyn, why are you so upset about killing someone?

"I... It's just not right, killing someone... t-they have lives just as we do, and to take that away from them is... is..." She buried her head into her legs again without saying another word, though some silent crying could be heard from her.

Liam stroked her back to comfort her. He didn't like it when people were sad.

Joshua of course didn't like seeing Marilyn sad either, and was quick to give her a comforting hug to her side, which was sort of a rare thing to see from him... well unless if it was his sister that he was hugging.

Geronimo just kept kneeling next to the three, understanding Marilyn's sadness. He didn't like to kill living people either, and preferred to neutralize his opponents instead.

...Then, from out of nowhere, Marilyn hugged Joshua back as her head was buried in his right shoulder, her crying still persisting while it became a little bit louder. Joshua... didn't look surprised by this, like as if he expected this to happen. Nonetheless though, he kept the hug going and even placed a hand on the back of her head to softly caress it.

Liam sat next to the two with his head down. He felt like he was going to cry too. Geronimo noticed this and offered Liam a hug. Liam accepted it and he buried his head in Geronimo's chest, silently crying. (nohomo) (Hush, lol.)

Joshua's ear couldn't help but twitch, before he looked over to Liam and Geronimo "...Why is he crying?" He asked.

Geronimo: I think he's crying because Marilyn is...

"...Oh. I see..." Joshua said, as he looked over at Liam. He... really couldn't do anything for him since he was busy comforting Marilyn, who was still crying in his shoulder. So he just sorta... gave a concerned look.

Geronimo continued to comfort Liam.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: I don't mean to disrupt your gloomy situation, but we have a large fleet of Twyops fighter jets coming our way. They know we took the airbase.

Joshua looked over to R.A.B.B.I.T when he spoke, while Marilyn turned to face him as well, though her head was still on Joshua's shoulder "...Fighter jets? The hell are we supposed to do against those?" He asked.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Very well. Leave the fighter jets to me.

R.A.B.B.I.T. then shapeshifted into a homing missile cannon, shooting homing missiles at the fighter jets.

The two of them watched as R.A.B.B.I.T turned into a god damned Surface to Air Missile launcher "...How does that even...?" Joshua said aloud.

Blade: R.A.B.B.I.T. can turn into anything, except things that are smaller than him, such as a mouse, a chess piece or an ant.

"...I don't think I'm ever going to understand, but it's best I don't" Joshua said as he just watched R.A.B.B.I.T fire it's missiles at the fighter jets.

R.A.B.B.I.T. managed to blast a few fighter jets out of the sky, while the rest avoided them and fired their machine guns at the airbase courtyard. Blade ducked down to avoid the gunfire and Francis, Geronimo and Liam dove away to avoid the gunfire.

Joshua shielded Marilyn with his Chaos Shield since he was hugging her, while Sada and Connie were forced to dive into any available cover.

R.A.B.B.I.T. continued to fire homing missiles at the remaining fighter jets, and downed all of them.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: I took care of those fighter jets, but they are now arriving in space attack helicopters, as well as hi-tech space tanks. The weather is stormy, so we should hold on tight and take on any heat the Twyops can throw at us.

Francis: Yes, we have to hold out until the Galaxy Knights arrive.

"...Space attack helicopters?" Joshua said, blinking in disbelief.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: See for yourself and you will see I am right.

"...I didn't say I didn't believe you, it's just... how?" Joshua said, before he looked off in the distance, with Sada and Connie doing the same. Sada of course put her left eye right on the scope of her rifle, to get a closer view on the distance.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Even I do not know how helicopters are able to exist in space.

As Joshua, Sada and Connie were looking off in the distance, they could see attack helicopters and hi-tech space tanks approaching the airbase, just like R.A.B.B.I.T. was saying. Blade could see them too.

Blade: R.A.B.B.I.T. wasn't kidding, they're coming our way!

"...Cripes. R.A.B.B.I.T, I have a feeling your S.A.M mode is still needed" Joshua said, as the others saw the incoming force.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Affirmative. Sending the Twyops going out with a bang.

R.A.B.B.I.T. then fired a barrage of homing missiles towards the approaching Twyops troops, annihilating them.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Twyops troops annihilated.

Blade: Well done, buddy. I'm proud of you.

R.A.B.B.I.T.: Thank you, Master Blade. I'm blushing. We cannot let our guard down yet, because there is a huge amount of Twyops controlled pterodactyls coming our way.

Blade: Bob Rafei's ballsack, he's right!

Blade pointed at a large amount of pterodactyls flying towards the airbase.

"W... What are those!?" Marilyn exclaimed in shock, as the others looked at them as well "...I'm sorry, what?" Joshua thought to himself as he saw them approach.

Geronimo: Those are Gyaos. They're pterosaurs, and they live out here in Sector 5 and it's surrounding parts of the Mobian galaxy. They can be dangerous.
