...
Boom. Boom. Boom.
...
Whizzzz, Clink, Swhinnginginging!
We continue to run forwards with shells flyng past, ricocheting around and plinging off into the distance or exploding or embedding into the dirt and rubble nearby.
And after turning a corner, raisa and xia spots that theres more beast tanks infront.
"Commander! Enemies! 12 o clock!" Screams rasia as she dodges an incoming shell from the front. While xia exclaims.
"More test coons and aristotles! 5 of them!"
Bang. As xia fires her recoilless gun towards one of the giant gorilla's and hits a leg.
Ohougghh!?
"We push through! Zoya! Sophie! Jocelyn! Upfront!, Chen! Zoe! Keep shooting the ones behind!, Raisa and xia distractions!, you two with me towards that building!" Barks the commander while pulling both of me as we pass rush pass by sophie and the just downed beast tank group infront of us.
"We need to keep moving! Our main goal is to leave the warzone and not cause too much trouble! Zoya move back!" Shouts the commander.
"Ah, i was acting up on my old habit again, sorry." Said zoya as she catches back up to everyone as she fires a shot and swiftly taking out one ofnthe test coons.
Boom.
"Commander! New enemy herd around the corner! We should be able to find a breakthrough point by killing the herd of beast tanks infront!" Exclaims raisa as she weaves through rubble and fires a parting shot at the chasing test coons. Bang.
The shell flies straight, and hits the hiant horse sized raccoon straight in the head causing it to tumble and roll forwards, then ragdoll lifelessly a few moments after. A clean killing shot.
"Nice shot sister raisa!" Beams xia, as she too weaves through the road and rubble.
...
As we all run a few more blocks down with the girls fighting and shooting while on the move.
Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom. Bang. Bang.
Various pained and panicked test coon and gorilla noises and some plinks and clinks of some shells failing to penetrate and ricocheting off.
...
After a while.
"The gathering speed of beast tanks in this area seems faster than i imagined." Mutters the commandef while catching his breath by a street corner.
"Hmph, this isnt particularly fast considering the terrain." Humphs sophie as she finishes off a aristotle nearby.
Boom.
Ohoghhh...
"That makes it more difficult for us to mive forward..." as the commander pulls out a map and looks at it.
While xia interjects and says "maybe they think we are weak and wanna hunt us?"
With zoe jumping in and thinking 'are we though?'
chen chuckles guessing what zoe's confused look is for, "beast tanks also are capable of intuition, maybe they do somehow feel that some of us are just hatchlings?"
With the commander bluntly saying, "well that wouldn't be exactly wrong, since zoe was beaten up ny them before."
Pouting, zoe rebuttes. "Hey! Thats because there were alot of them! And i also had to protect a deadweight, known as commander!"
Oh lol, thats cute. Puffing up like a puffer fish while pouting, thats one for the memory books. "But.. uh... isn't it a metal maiden's duty to protect their commanders?"
zoes tumble anime style at my words... an then quickly gets up and opens her mouth but proceed to say nothing. Probably not being able to find a counter point.
haha, ok that was funny. But damn. This is tiring. Having to run multiple blocks while controlling two bodies simultaneously is exhausting. Mentally that is, luckily both of my bodies seem fit as a fiddle and is highly exercised so thats one problem for later.
"Alright we've rested for a bit, time to keep moving. Raisa, chen take point." As the commander stows the map away and i too stand both my bodies up and follow him.
...
"Commander there's another herd of beast tanks in front around the corner. A group of Cervantes and aristotles" Chen whispers fo everyone.
With commander looking at the map, "good, kill this batch of beast tanks and we should be able to reach a safe area."
With zoe beaming,"oh!? Really? Im not too familiar with this area..."
"It's ok zoe, I'm not too familiar with this place either. Let's kill everyone and then decide what to do." Chimes in jocelyn while patting zoe's shoulder.
"The jeep is nearby, once this horde is dealt with we should be home free for a while. Let's move." As the commander stores the map as i follow him around the buildings and rubble while the girls move in to battle.
...
With zoya rushing in like a charging bear. The new enemy, a giant armored baboon. The Cervantes gets rammed off to the side and isolated and surrounded by zoe and raisa.
Ohohghh!? Roarrr!!!
While sophie, Jocelyn, xia, and chen deals with the remaining 4 aristotles.
Boom. Boom. Bang. Boom.
With sophie instantly blasting one of the aristotles head clean off its body thanks to her short 8,8cm kwk 36 L/56 gun capable of shredding through the giant gorilla's M3Lee's armored hide and cranium with ease.
Jocelyn and chen's shots also hitting but not knocking the gorrilas out. But with jocelyn's shell directly disabling one of the aristotles gun, and chen's shot blasting a leg off of another. Causing the gorrilas to groan in pain.
Lastly, xia's shot sadly just dealt explosion damage and not much else as the shell exploded prematurely, singing only the side of the tank armored half of the gorrila, and firing a counter shot which chen quickly blocking and bouncing the return shot from the monkey.
Meanwhile with the baboon, heavy tank beast tank cervantes after being rammed out of the group and isolated by zoya.
Ohohoahah! Roaarrrr! Boom.
Twinginginging! With the baboons shell bouncing cleanly off of zoya's turret armor, zoya wrestles against the giant baboon tank while aiming her turret and firing point blank to the face.
Boom.
Roar!!?
Boom. Bang. Twinginginging!
With zoe flanking around the the side of the baboon and her shell penatrating the tougher heavy tank hide of the beast tank. "Go jumbo!"
"Tsk!" Raisa clicking her tounge since her shell just bounced off uselessly on the metallic hide of the baboon heavy tank as she changes her aim to target the monkey's weaker joint armor.
Bang. Splurt boom.
"Nice shot comrade! URRRRAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!"
With raisa dealing massive damage to the monkey's knee, forcing it to kneel zoya takes that opportunity to lift it up and toss it towards a rubble wall.
Crash!
Boom. Boom. Bang.
With the monkey down and disoriented the three girls uses that chance to deal with and dispatch the baboon.
...
After a somewhat fierce battle. The group walks towards an wide open central plaza of some sorts.
With the commander directly walking towards a jeep and checking on it,
"I didn't expect that there would be so many beast tanks in this area."
With zoe nearby puffing out her chest " hehe! With me and jumbo here, what else do you need to worry about?"
With the commander getting in and sitting in the driver's seat and motioning for both of me to get on, "If that was the case i wouldnt have requested for reinforcements now would i?"
"Wah..." zoe deflates with a feigned shocked face.
"Haha, comrade zoe is obviously still a novice, a bit stiff in a real fight, but this will get better over time once she gets more battle experience." Interjects zoya while she checks her armour. While xia sides to zoe,
"Yeah, even now i too still make mistakes..."
Hearing that, zoe beams up and exclaims, "Thats right!, when i get used to the battlefield, i will become stronger!"
With the commander chuckling as he looks at zoe, "Looking forward to it, so hurry up and get stronger so you don't get ganged up on by test coons. Now get ready to move out we don't have all day."
"Why do i feel like you are just making fun of me..." as zoe pouts and puffs up her cheeks again.
