[b]At the gates[/b]
[spoiler]Look at just the picture, not the words that happen to be on the web page.[/spoiler]
[b]Fortis and his large group of soldiers and assorted Dojo members had reached Alpha-Tui. Over the hill rose a large gate, and beyond an even larger citadel.[/b]
"This is supposedly the place where we will find the one who will forge the relic. Be careful though, there may be a few around here that will not like our presence."
[spoiler]Open. If you want to join in on the plot and have not yet done so, do it now or be forever left out.[/spoiler]

Ama takes little time to become intrigued by the location. Her eyepatch glowing as she scans everything in her line of sight. "Interesting, scans show this place to be both advance and ancient. Wonder what kind of tech I can try to reverse engineer around here..."
-
"Imagine technology that I have except better. That is the best way I can describe this place."
-
"Interesting. Right off the bat I can see a few ways to increase the efficiency of my nanoeds. I'll probably need to make some improvised methods to make some of the other things around here. Anyways this is the place where we will track down this world saving device?"
-
"It is were we will find the one who will make one for us. Also, if you are interested in any technology here, you can always go to the market. Just not right now." [b]Fortis said. He gave a signal and all of the vehicles started moving towards the gate rapidly.[/b] "I suggest you hop on one, unless you can move at 250 miles per hour."
-
"Never was too fast..." She grabs ahold of the closest vehicle a bit aprehnsively and hits the throttle.
-
[b][A soldier jumps onto the large motorcycle-ish vehicle.[/b] "You know how to drive this thing?"
-
"The only reason I know how to drive a car is by scanning someone while they drove. This on the other hand. I'm pretty clueless."
-
"I'll drive then, you can get the gunner's seat." [b]An extra seat sprouts out of the back. It seems to be just a rotating machine gun turret with a seat attached to it.[/b]
-
"That I can do. Just tell me how to aim and shoot. Letting me know the velocity per shot can be pretty helpful too if you happen to know that." She looks over at the gunners cockpit thinking of what parameters to put her scanner on for trajectory and other variables when fireing.
-
"The left trigger starts and stops the rotating device. It helps if you are trying to aim. The right trigger fires. The joysticks and pedals control the rotating device. The velocity per shot is... uh... I think it is 5,000 feet per second. And the fire rate is pretty high. I don't really remember all the numbers because I have never been the gunner before."
-
"Alright shouldn't be too hard" She hops into the gunner seat testing out the rotation speed while the soldier prepares to ride. After a couple seconds her eyepatch sets up a virtual overlay on the gun reading wind, and temperature.
-
[b]The bike starts up and advances through the lines of tanks, being much faster than they are. Once they pass through the gate, a large fleet of ships flys in in front of Fortis's.[/b] "This might be bad, take aim."
-
"Gotcha" Ama snaps the turret into place locking on to one of the targets. Her overlay starts to display where to shoot in order to hit each target.
-
"When Fortis gives the command, we will either attack the ships or continue o to the city. It should be coming across any second now..." [b]The radio blinked to life and a command could be heard.[/b] "All weapons, fire at will!"
-
She then begins fireing on the marks she set up lining up with each one as quickly as possible.
-
[b]Each of the bullets hit the cruiser, but they don't seem to do much damage.[/b] "Don't worry if it doesn't seem like you are doing anything. Those cruisers are almost impossible to take down. Once they deploy fighters on the other hand, then you can start really wreaking havoc. And speak of the devil..." [b]The sky is blotted out by enemy fighters and small freighters.[/b] "Looks like you have your work cut out for you. Don't worry about getting hit, I will maneuver around any fighter that tries to attack us." [b]The driver starts driving in what seems like a frantic and radical way. He doesn't seem to be getting hit though, so at least he is doing something right.[/b]
-
Her targeting system switches to the fighter and she begins following the markers she set up fireing when she manages to line them up while compensating for the rapid change in direction. "So basically all we wanted to do was p-ss this thing off? Alright so anything in particular I should be aiming for? So far I'm just beaming at what I'm guessing is the cockpit though I can swap out to going for the engines or something else"
-
"Well, we were trying to pass by peacefully. I am guessing that didn't work out, so then we pissed it off. Also, I would suggest aiming for the center of the fighter. That is where the reactor is located. If you blow up the reactor, the entire fighter will follow. Nice shooting by the way." [b]A few fighters explode from the bullets you fired, but most of them seem like the bullets were just minor annoyances.[/b]
-
Ama readjusts her shots to lock more towards where she was instructed. Altering a few coordinates to make up for the movement even more. "Thanks, technically I was made as a mass casualty weapon in a lab. I'm usually pretty good when it comes to multiple targets."
-
"Oh really? That is very interesting. Most of us soldiers are built like that, although I doubt we are as skilled as you are." [b]The fighters seeem much more effected by the change in trajectory. It takes half the time to blow up a fighter.[/b] "Watch out, a fighter is dive bombing us!"
-
"Sht!" She quickly changes her focus on the fighter hoping to pick it of on time.
-
[b]Explosive volts of energy revenge the ground next to the bike, but the fighter seems unable to hit you. The fighter, however, goes down after about ten seconds of being fired upon.[/b] "Boy, they sure don't make ships like they used to."
-
The jolts distracted her for a second before she snapped out of it and got back to the task at hand. "He had a clean shot. What happened?"
-
"Either I juked him or his ship malfunctioned. Or some strange unexplainable force made him miss. But let's not think about that right now."
-
"Well, alright. So what's the plan for the big one anyways? I'm guessing it's gotta run out of fighters to throw at us eventually."
