The sound of a metal beast is heard from a long distance. Villagers hearing the disturbing sounds rapidly hide in their homes, in their bunkers. The fields, the mines, the village, were all empty. A giant robotic dragon scouts the surroundings, his red eyes scan the village, but no success.
A small boy was binding in a haystack. The child rushed to see if the beast left, but it was already above him. The child screams as his life as the dragon comes face down towards him. From the dragon's mouth is seen a giant laser preparing to fire..
The dragon rushed to the ground. In a blink of an eye a laser penetrated the mechanical beast's neck and was sliced in half. The dragon fell to the ground, the neck in front of the boy while the rest of the body was on his right, nearly taking his life. The metal crushing to the ground was disturbing. The boy's ears are bleeding.
He rushed to see what saved him and then he saw. An army of men and women. Some in S.B.M's and others on foot. A teenager was on one of those Super Battle Mecha. The adolescent is tall, has both brown eyes intact, his hair is black cut to the tip of the finger. He is missing one arm, he doesn't look bothered.
He looks like he has seen more than it lets to be seen. The little boy was bald, no eyebrows, nothing, He was dressed with some farmer clothes, red and blue. The child was shocked to see a teenager with one arm holding a blast rifle and still be fine.
The teenager said something, but the child didn't hear. The teenager got off the S.B.M. and rushed towards the child screaming. Closer the teenager got he screamed more, but the child didn't hear anything.
The one armed teenager is looking at the boy's ears, he makes a sign out of his arm and a hovering mobile operation center appears from behind the army. They take the kid in so they can save his hearing.
The teenager sees the boy getting in and some comfort warms his heart. One of his men came to him. He has short-cropped dark. His face had a few scars that are mostly healed, with another few prominent deep scars. Dressed in a specialized military uniform..
"Commander!" the man said. "What should we do next?" The commander sighed looking at his man and the mobile operations center fleeing to safety.
"Rinehart, come with me! Ghost! Go cloak mode and scout for any enemies, Rest of you prepare for defense, this is our land afterall." The teenager and Rinehart move towards the dragon's head. They are half of a human's body, the torso. "I guess I hit a bullseye…" They removed the body and saw the helm for the beast. From inside a radio static is heard. The Commander grabs a radio. "This is Commander Theodore Bloodhearth, I am here to tell you this is my 9th special kill today, I want more of these, do you have more? Commander Fiora Goldhaven?" He said with a superior tone mocking the respective Commander.
"ONE-HANDED Son of a bitch! When I'll find you I'll tear you down in pieces.
Theodore laughed at her words. "See you on the battlefield bitch!" He then cuts the wire of the radio and moves back to his people. Rinehart stops the Commander. "Sir, why did you make her mad?" "Strategy, Rinehart, I know most of my enemy commanders from my past excursions to the kingdom of Liberna."
The commander brings out a pair of binoculars. He zooms in towards a valley. "With her is an easy strat. Make her feel that she is losing and she will come at your throat. And now she will make irrational decisions… That's why you don't put these types of people in charge of important things." The Commander still looks out for something.
"How do you know all of them?" The Commander sighed. "Rinehart, I am a lord, I know those people because I've met them before the war, let's say my mother loved excursions to colder climates…." "Oh… So even when you were a little shit you still were watching for defects in others…" Theodore chuckled "Watch your mouth Rinehart." Rinehart started laughing and so did some of the other soldiers.
"Laughing at your own Commander? How rude of you…" Theodore said laughing with them as well. "Commander, Ghost coming in~" "Roger, what's the status?" "The enemy sir, they are charging towards the village.
You took down all the dragons so they have no aircraft. Should we send our men or defend our position?" The commander sees the solidres rushing and behind them their commander. "Rinehart to your mech. Soldiers! Position Jerryco 1266! Divide and conquer!" The commander rushes onto Rinehart's mech and jumps on its back.
The commander and his subordinate take flight, charging forward, towards the enemy, alone.
"Why 1266? Are you nuts?" Rinehart asked, demanding an explanation. "1266 is the only way to win this battle, you leave me behind them so I can kill their Commander and bomb them from behind."
A missile charges at them. Rinehart shoots at it and the missile explodes leaving time for them to sneak in its smoke and change the position. "That was close" Said the Commander, he then started coughing, the smoke was thick. They exited the smoke and launched themselves forward with the mech's thrusters. "If I die Rinehart, you take command."
The Commander gets close to the mech's head and jumps off it. "Hope you won't!" Rinehart goes down and starts joining in one of the formations. The commander is going towards the ground from 600 meters above it.
He sees the mobile commanding center, where his target is located. He goes towards the moving vehicle, his head facing the ground. He got close to the vehicles around 40 meters away from certain death. He pressed a button on his waist, short after his shoes started to make him hover. He moves onto the vehicle.
"Divide and conquer." He said through his head piece and seconds later mechas started coming from the ground blasting the army vehicles. Theodore enters the vehicle to meet his main enemy. Fiora. She is a tall woman, around 186~87 cm tall, she is dressed in a military grade uniform, no armor, unlike her adversary Theodore. She is going to fight her enemy and an old friend.
Along her was her god given servant. The servant is a massive brute ready to strike at anyone who wants to attack his master. He was dressed with a tank top and a pair of cargo pants. His height was exactly 2 meters tall.
Theodore grabs his sword. "I see gods honored you with a servant. What you make him do. Clean the dishes?" He smirked. "This will be your last joke, Theodore!" She takes out her sword and enters in a stance. "Corin. Please stand by until further orders." The servant gently nods.
Theodore holding his sword with his only hand, "You know that I am at an impasse here Fiora?" "That your right arm was obliterated when the war started? I've heard that story. Knowing you, fighting with only one hand ain't an Impasse. The only thing that might make you uncomfortable is that you're not left hand~"
Theodore strikes before she could finish the sentence, his strikes are not meant to kill but to break her defense and make her surrender. She makes a sign to her servant and he prepares to shoot Theodore.
He sees it and pushes Fiora away and slices the servant's arms off him. Theodore pushes the servant off the vehicle. He was facing the wide open door as Fiora charged into him and both of them were thrown out of the vehicle. Both were hurt in the process.
Both were unconscious. Rinehart was fighting the last people of the army. All of them surrendered and were imprisoned. "Ghost!" He screamed in his coms. "Roger" "Where is the Commander?" "I don't know? Isn't he in the enemy mobile commanding center?" Rinehart goes toward the vehicle where the Commander's last location was.
He gets out of his mecha and pulls out a plasma rifle. He enters the vehicle only to find blood, a Commander blade from the enemy armory and two hands alongside a Pixie Pistol. "Search for the Commander ASAP!" He screams in the coms. "If he is dead, none of us will forgive ourselves." The whole army started searching for their Commander.
Theodore recovers and hallucinates. He saw himself as a child playing chess with Fiora. Both, pretty young. He tries to get up and fails miserably. He hears the discussion at the said hallucination. "It's not fair!" Said little Fiora. "It is, it's not my problem you have the same strategy and lose every time because I figured it out…" She sighs. "Look, If you just don't take everything to heart and start to learn and practice new strategies you'll win."
Theodore lay on his back laughing. The laugh awakened Fiora. "Why do you laugh? Did we die?" He laughs for a bit and stops. "Sadly no. I wish to have escaped this madness." She tries to get up but pain starts to get in her bones.
"What happened to me?" "You thrown yourself AND I out of a fucking moving vehicle. Didn't expect that…" She starts to remember and looks around. Everything she was leading was in shambles. she starts crying. Theodore crawls closer and hugs her. "It's alright, my people are not monsters. Most of your soldiers are captured." "How is this good news?" Theodore pets her on the head. "You won't have to live in this war any more. You'll get treated and sent to a war prisoners camp.
Where I have control and make sure you'll be ok." "I tried to kill you… Why are you keeping me alive? Because my father will never let me kill old friends. He chuckled. "I guess you lost." He then hardly gets up. He makes sure he can stay on his feet. He looks around and Ghost sees him.
"Commander! Are you ok?" Theodore nods. He picks his enemy up from the ground and looks at Ghost. He lowers his mecha. "Take her as our prisoner, bring her to a medical area first." "And you?" "Are you questioning a direct order, Ghost?" Ghost silently picks the woman and flyers off. Theodore moves his head to his back where he sees Fiora's servant.
"Rinehart, we got some kind of a problem. We found Commander with the Libernan Commander, but not him. Sending Commander's last coordinates." Rinehart got the coordinates and rushed to see what was going on. He sees the Commander talking with someone with no hands. He remembers that in the vehicle there were two hands on the floor.
He gets on the ground and gets out of his mech. He grabs his rifle and moves slowly.
"Commander, are you ok?" The Commander looks behind him. His face looked like he was disoriented. Rinehart, scared of the situation, rushes towards Theodore and looks at him closer. "Look I'm fine, not 100% fine, BUT I am fine."
Theodore falls to the ground as he was hit in the head by the servant's leg. "COMMANDER!" Rinehart screams, everyone on the comes heard that, everyone was listening to the radios and wanted to hear what happened next. He shoots down the attacker. "This is Rinehart 'Champ' Roland. Requesting medical squad to send locations stat." He examines Theodore and he has a pulse. "You're gonna be fine Commander, just don't die on us…"
