Scooby, Agumina, Dixie Agumon and cynder-W were using thier rings on the second engine. magic flowed into the engine from the rings, so far, it wasnt producing a strain on them, but it soon would. spyro-W and the lions would be the second shift which would take over in 30 minutes time.

Kiara began to massage Kovu's back.

"i hope this helps you feel better," she said

Jason flew down maintaining his atomic fire storm centered on him, being sure to only fly across areas where there were only enemies. Guilmon remained on his back, tossing a pyrosphere now and then. He hoped this would reduce some of the enemies and gave the others time to regroup, get away, or do whatever their plans may be.

------

Sara did a chain lightning spell so the lighting bolt would jump from one enemy to the other, and it would give her a chance to rest from just breathing fire. She kept a shield spell up to protect herself as well, doing a variety so it would provide protection to Dulcy Samia.

================

"How can we help?" Spike asked, eager to help where he could. Things looked pretty nasty, from what he could see from where he was.

(Battlefield)

Mr. Bigmouth threw another frost potion at the engine. "How bad is it?"

"Really f---ing bad!" Deimos shouted as an arrow found its way through the firing port.

-----------

(RICMS Spire of Winter)

All around the starship, workers were busy setting up walls, portable shield generators and various turrets. The din of construction equipment and war machines echoed around the swamp.

Captain Carson pointed to a machine gun turret that had been deployed. "Get in there and shoot at the enemy. The directions are in the control seat."

Twilight's jaw dropped. "Captain, did you just give Spike command of a weapon?"

"Yes I did. Since you use magic like Commander Stripetail, I'll defer to him."

Kor · **Reply #2304 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:17:32 AM

"All right." Spike said, excited, and pumping the air with a fist. He ran over to the machine gun turret. He jumped into the seat and looked over the directions. Once he was sure he had at least the basic directions down he gripped the triggers and aimed them at some enemies and started to fire.

"Oh wow, this is so cool." Spike said.

Serris · **Reply #2305 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:57:30 AM

Sure enough, just as the last fortifications were deployed, Clockwerk's forces had converged on the crash site.

An armed dune buggy, its dual .50 caliber machine guns blazing away at a horde of Crane Archers in the distance, thundered past Spike's turret. The driver, who was carrying a rifle, waved to Spike.

"Hey, can any of y'all tell me what Ah'm supposed to do?" Applejack asked as arrows pinged off the barrier she was ducked behind.

Twilight looked around and saw a soldier using a grenade launcher. "What's the largest object you can buck?"

"Shoot, Twi, with accuracy and speed? Maybe an apple pie sized thing."

Captain Carson ducked behind a barrier as a rocket exploded against it. "Stripetail! This is Captain Carson! Clockwerk's forces are attacking the crash site!" she said into her radio.

Nick22 · **Reply #2306 on:** June 19, 2014, 07:29:03 PM

" working on a shield to cover the area. this will be quite an undertaking Captain and it wuill require a few minutes' Stripetail replied " Tarrax is coming out to assist' in a couple minutes the attackers were hit with white hot fire from above and Tarrax went to work on them. back and forth he moved, his immense form pouring out death and creating a barrioer around the camp. mice and macque were turned to ash.
_ we dont have any ammo left' Nick replied as another arrow stuck into the seat near him. the temperature from the exposed engines was like the heat from a furnace, you had to step back to be safe. they were slowly gaining atitude, but with no ammo they was little away to defend themselves. Cynder-S and Spyro-S began firing their attacks out the openings, forming a sort of barrier.
- an armed force detecting 5.8 parsecs south of our location.. they seem to be attacking the ship' Aphelion said as Ratchet bobbed and weaved to avaod macque fire. ' we have our own problems ' ratchet said.

Over on Mawashi, Shifu the red panda, one of Ozai's advisers, went over to the giant sumo lord. "We've already received dozens of applications for the tournament sir," the sumo red panda said, "Of course, you'll be the final judge of who gets in," he bowed to Ozai.

........................

"This is crazy!" Rabbit exclaimed, watching the chaos outside from one of the windows.

Serris · **Reply #2308 on:** June 19, 2014, 08:57:31 PM

Deimos sighed as he ejected the last magazine. "I'm out."

Dr. Zanasiu leaned his rifle against the bulkhead. "Same here!"

Mr. Bigmouth threw another frost potion at the engine, which were glowing white hot. He reached into his enchanted messenger bag and threw a flashbang out the firing port. "All I've got left are flashbangs!" During the chase, he had managed to expend his entire supply of frag, concussion, incendiary and smoke grenades ó all fifty of each kind.

Ms. Swimmer was flinging bolts of lightning out through another firing port. The hail of arrows forced her to fire blind but she'd occasionally hear screams of agony, indicating a hit.

Kor · **Reply #2309 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:19:19 PM

Spike waved back to the armed dune buggy. Then went back to shooting at the enemies with his turret.

----

Jason flew over the areas where there were only enemies, well away from where the ship and other crew were, so they'd not be harmed by what he was doing. The atomic firestorm cased parts of the ground to glow red and the rocks start to melt, any abandoned buildings began to melt also, pavement flowed like it was water. He did his best to cover a large area, focusing on cutting off the areas where the enemies could most easily get lines of support, supplies or reinforcements.

----------

Sara cast a combined spell of chain lighting & emp burst, wondering if the combined effect would have. She kept a shield spell up to try to shield the 3 of them from attacks, or at least the worst of the attacks.

Nick22 · **Reply #2310 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:38:04 PM

Tiger let forth a blizzard attack to cool the engine. the result produced a trial of steam and trickled out of the vents. the ice turned to gas almost instantly> the 5 powering the engine began to feel a strain coming from their eforts
(Crash Site)
within a few minutes a large white shield appeared over the ship and the fortifications surrounding it. the rockets impacted harmless against the shield, creating myriad colors as they exploded. stripetail appeared next to Carson " that shield should protect us long enough for the others to return, and for us to make repairs . We have been hard put to it indeed, as Clockwerks army is quite vast.
-

(Mawashi)
how many in all?' Ozai said with a smirk " Do we have more than last year?' he queried.

tempestwheel · **Reply #2311 on:** June 19, 2014, 11:57:15 PM

"At this point, over 150 sire," a sumo guard said, rolling in a wagon filled with applications. "We know you'll pick the most worthy for the tournament."

"Indeed, you are the wisest," Shifu nodded to Ozai.

.......................

"What now?" Kiara asked, concerned.

Serris · **Reply #2312 on:** June 22, 2014, 02:42:05 PM

(Battle Site)

"Keep at it!" Mr. Bigmouth exclaimed. His air purifying gem kept the acrid smoke from the overheated engines and the steam from the rapidly vaporizing coolant at bay but it cut visibility to zero. He threw another flashbang out a firing port and then followed up with a frost potion at the glowing engine.

Zachary and Dr. Zanasiu opened more firing ports to ventilate the suffocating atmosphere. Deimos even forced the landing ramp open slightly in an attempt to get the smoke out.

"We're almost there!" Ms. Swimmer shouted. She looked out a window that had been shot out and saw the distinct outline of the starship in the distance.

--------------

(RICMS Spire of Winter)

Projectiles smashed against Stripetail's shield. However, smoking wrecks of dune buggies and a few heavier vehicles were visible. Numerous dead Spirarian troops were seen as well. All evidence of the fierce battle that had been waged before Stripetail deployed the shield.

Twilight was standing atop a barrier and deployed her own personal shield. The Unicorn attacked Clockwerk's forces by shooting bursts of explosively charged magic with the same effect as a salvo of 30 mm HE shells from one of the turrets that the crew had deployed.

Dash launched thunderheads (forged inside the starship's magic chamber) into the enemy lines with an effect similar to artillery shells. Thunder boomed as the lightning bolts pounded the enemy forces. As if in reply, a 105 mm artillery piece fired its own explosive shell.

Applejack was using her lasso to hurl small bombs (originally intended for use by aircraft) at the foes.

"Spike! How are you doing?" Twilight shouted. A rocket smashed against the shield.

----------

Captain Carson nodded. "The crew are working on repairs as we speak. However, many of the troops and vehicles are occupied holding Clockwerk's forces at bay."

Kor · **Reply #2313 on:** June 22, 2014, 03:53:15 PM

"Doing as well as I can." Spike said, focusing on shooting as many of the enemies as he could. He had gotten the hang of the controls and only shot at the enemies marked on the screen. It also seemed the gun needed to cool down, so he'd have to pause now and then and let it cool for a a second or a few.

-------

Velma remained invisible and shooting her bow at groups, looking for the most effective group to shoot at before she shot, then quickly moving to another spot.

----

Brooklyn, also invisible, continued to fly and move, looking for high ranking officers or other prime targets to eliminate with the sword Jason had lent him made of some alloy he refereed to as dragon steel and was heavily enchanted.

Good" Because I dont think i can keep this up for more than a few more minutes' Dixie called out as the ship wobbled unsteadily through the air. inside her helmet she was sweating heavily..' Yeah you can land anytime" cynder-W said in a strained voice.Both of the Skylands counterparts were giving it all they could but they were getting very tired.' Just hold on guys' Tigeress said, as she helped Tiger try and keep the engines from overheating.. everyone involved would need a nice long rest. Flash stayed close to dixie, trying to comfort her by giving her smiles.
- Samia and Dulcy had decided to head back towards the ship and were making good progress.
- Ratchet steered Aphelion towards The Spirwe of Winter, identifiable now thanks to Stripetail's shield.
_
Of Course We will need to gather the dead, for burial or cremation" stripetail said, before letting forth a blast of lightning from his staff that tore into the enemy ranks.. Arlene and miss Kitty were tending to injured in the ships medical wing, which fortunately was not damaged.
- Mawashi)
i'll start narrowing the field, right away' Ozai said , with a big grin, taking out a scroll and a pen..

"This is crazy," Kiara exclaimed to Kovu.

Oliver was clinging to the older cat's paw in fear from what had happened.

,..........

"Any immediately catch your eye?" Shifu asked Ozai

Serris · **Reply #2316 on:** June 23, 2014, 11:33:16 AM

Mr. Bigmouth had expended his last frost potion. He scowled as the engine began to glow white from the heat produced.

The shuttle then lurched as it dipped in preparation for landing. Luckily, Clockwerk's forces were so busy trying to fight the starship's garrison that they ignored the badly damaged shuttle that flew through the shield (thanks to the Omnidrate's rings).

-----------

The shuttle landed behind the front lines. Several firefighters and medics were prepared in case anything went wrong.

Deimos emerged from the rear landing hatch. He, Ms. Swimmer and Mr. Bigmouth all had to force the badly damaged ramp open. Smoke and steam billowed out through every opening in the shuttle.

"Let's never do that again!" Zachary exclaimed, taking off his spacesuit's helmet and taking a gulp of fresh air.

Kor · **Reply #2317 on:** June 23, 2014, 03:44:01 PM

Seeing Dulcy and Samia were heading back to the ship so she decided to cover their path back to the ship. She summoned a para-elemental of ash, to help battle the enemies and cover their flying back towards the ship.

----

Jason continued to fly, maintaining his spell to keep the enemies from being resupplied or reinforced. The air where he flew, and the ground below grew so hot that metal and stone flowed like water, anything flammable was quickly reduced to fine ash. He flew well away from where the others were so what he was doing would not effect any of them.

Nick22 · **Reply #2318 on:** June 23, 2014, 10:24:24 PM

omniderate staggered one one by one out of the damaed shuttle. Scooby helped keep dixie from collapsing. each of them had deactivated their helmets, and sweat and strain on each of them was evident and they slowly made their way towards the safety of the ship. ratchet flew through the barrier a couple minutes later followed by Tarrax.

Serris · **Reply #2319 on:** June 24, 2014, 11:48:58 PM

"Into the ship!" Captain Carson shouted over the sounds of battle.

"With pleasure," Dr. Kerzach muttered as he routed around a crater produced by a Macaque's rocket.

The Pelvanida group wasted no time in hustling aboard the starship's now lowered boarding ramp.

Mr. Bigmouth turned around and saw incoming rockets randomly exploding or incoming arrows instantly reduced to ash. It was then he realized that the ship's point defense laser cannons were being put to use. He then saw several flashes of fire in the distance ó the point defense laser cannons were also being used to kill the enemy troops.

Several cargo haulers and laborers with plasma pole cutters got to work hacking up the damaged shuttle so it could be stripped for parts and then recycled.
