Path of Destruction | Locked to Setsuna, Lockon, Allelujah, and Hixar

[srwuga_mods]

[During the Earth-side's group stay, the Ptolomeios has been searching relentlessly for any trace of those imitation Celestial Being Gundams.  And though up until now they hadn't found anyone...]

Hixar, Setsuna, Allelujah, Lockon.

We've found them.  A few dozen clicks south of here, in fact... if we move fast, we might be able to get the jump on

[It was time... Setsuna had already been in the cockpit when he heard the message, which meant that he was ready to go at anytime.] Understood. Exia Avalanche is launching. [The Gundam zips off, the superior speed provided by the Avalanche equipment letting him get a hell of a head start over the others' machines.]

"Not a Gundam Fight. Not a Gundam Fight."

"Now now, it's not the time for that kind of attitude. This is our first real operation with them, so we need to do as they say." Hixar pats Hayana on the head.

"Hixar Fermi. Gundam Sadalsuud. Hunting the target." Shortly after the Gundam takes off, it disappears from sight and most radars. Lockon's Haro can probably still track it.

"Time to go then. Hopefully we'll get there in time."

"Allelujah Haptism, Gundam Kyrios. Launching." The unit blasts from the hangar and wings off into the distance with incredible speed. In the cockpit, Allelujah's face is stern, and tense.

("Hallelujah... I don't want you trying to interfere on this one. Celestial Being is my family, and I want to be the one who takes care of these imposters," Allelujah states to his other half; Hallelujah simply snorts and recedes to the corner of his mind.)

[With the speed the Gundams possess, the distance is covered in a relatively short space of time. The wilderness sweeps by under them, with a massive ravine nearing closer... and as confirmation of everything, a beam rifle blast can be seen shooting out of it. And inside of that ravine...]

Too easy... too easy! Maybe I should have gunned you down like your brother!

[... Is a sight you all probably were not expecting. Throne Eins hung there, impaled on the massive buster sword of Throne Zwei, as Zwei's new pilot was laughing in victory. Throne Drei lay in a crumpled, but still functioning heap at the bottom of the ravine... most likely Ali's first victim.]

[orewagundamda]

[What the hell-!]

That voice...! Ali-Al Saachez! ['But how did is he piloting that Mobile Suit? Even if these people were imposters, it should have been tuned to their biometrics-' Setsuna shakes these thoughts away, and charges at the man who taught him everything who knew about combat with his GN Sword drawn!]

"What happened here?" Allelujah mumbled in confused awe. Of all the scenes he'd expected to come across, this was NOT one of them. Instinct took over before he had a chance to start thinking it out, and the pilot zipped off to the right flank, beam-pistol blazing in rapid burst-shots at Zwei.

[rods_and_cones]

Honestly, Hixar was looking for another target. Eins and Drei were accounted for, and damaged, but he wanted to make sure there wasn't another REAL Gundam lurking about. "I suppose he's not here. Alright, back to business then."

Rather than the beam rounds from everyone else, Hixar unloaded a round from the Grenade Launcher; standard fragmentation round, shot from, and aimed for the Zwei's back!

[srwuga_mods]

[Zwei fell back, under the assault from the four Gundams. Eins, on the other hand, fell to the ground and promptly exploded, putting an end to Johann Trinity as well.]

Feh... four on one? Well that isn't very fair at all, now is it? So how about we even the odds, Celestial Being!

[That was all the command that Ali needed to give. At once over both sides of the ravine numerous mobile suits, each equipped with another imitation GN-Drive appeared... before they all charged down into the thick of things, launching a hail of fire at you all.]

[subject_0057]

"Setsuna, watch your flank!" Allelujah yelled; Kyrios twisted, firing of a quick burst at the mob of strange psuedo-GN suits. Halfway through the roll, Kyrios folded in on itself, and Allelujah took off in flight mode, taking high into the air before doing a quick barrel roll and screaming down at the mobile suits, bullets carving a swathe to separate a few of the mobile suits from the right-most side from the main bulk.

[orewagundamda]

This wasn't happening. Not only did Ali-Al Saachez, that horrible bastard of a monster, somehow gain access to a Gundam, but these mobile suits all had a GN-Drive for an engine. How the hell is this possible? Was there a leak somewhere?! "YOU BASTARD!!!" Setsuna would continue to pursue Saachez, believing him to be the source of this conflict, instead of paying any attention to the GN-Xs that seemed to be lead by him. Lockon, you may want to cover him.

First order of business was pulling any information Veda had on these new units and distributing them to the other Gundams, or at least Lockon's Haro.

Sadalsuud kept to the ground though, and set the grenade launcher aside in favor of the GN Sniper Rifle; carbon copy to Dynames's.

Keeping a move, Hixar started laying into the GN-Xs. "KILL THEM! KILL THEM!"

[srwuga_mods]

[Unfortunately for you, Hixar... as you reach out to try to contact Veda you'll suddenly find access to it denied! It's as if someone else has taken control of the system and locked you out of the loop!

[And in the meantime, the GN-Xs break rank and work on surrounding and flanking Dynames, Sadalsuud, and Exia! Kyrios does manage to slip away, but a few more of the machines move to pursue it!]

Ha... got a one track mind, don't you boy? Fangs, fly!

[Zwei charges at Exia as well, unleashing its Fangs to add more guns to the battlefield before swinging down with its mighty buster sword again!]

[rods_and_cones]

Well that's unexpected.

"No Veda! No Veda!"

"She's right. Gentlemen, we've lost Veda. But we've got more important problems right now!"

Sadalsuud returns to full stealth, and scrambles around, trying to keep the enemy guessing where he's actually gone, and where he's firing from.
