As soon as she left the runway, Blair was soaring. Before he knew it, all Jericho could see of the Lone Star was it's namesake; a glittering star, alone in the daylight.
"Perfect," Jericho chimed to Blair via comm-link. "I'm going to send up some drones, do you feel ready for some combat exercise?"

"Honestly," Blair said, still coping with the fact that she was now propelling herself through the air, "No, but there's no time like the present to learn, right?"

"I'll take that as a 'yes'," Jeircho said. With a few button-presses on a console near the crane, several triangular drones emerged from the runway, and a prompt that read "SCORE: 4000" appeared on Blair's HUD.
"The drone's won't be able to damage your mech, but the score represents how much it can take in a real fight," Jericho explained over comm-link, "When the score hits zero, the simulation stops and the drones stop respawning."

Reichmacht Armory,
Going deeper, Koith sees the soldiers, are now practicing with the rocket packs, attached with the black metallic wings, maybe being used for coordination. They're flying through the simulated raging battle, dogfighting with the simulated air and ground units with the least damages taken. Taking a look via the windows, Kane introduces:
-This is the Black Wings Division! Using the special rocket packs, these soldiers will be an imminent threat to anyone who's underestimated them.
-How about the protection? You think the enemy only fire their missiles straight?-Koith asked.
-Ja!-Kane nodded-Our soldiers have the jamming systems attached to their packs! They will loosen the hostile fire out of control inside the radius!
The next battle is outer space, so the Black Wings will be amassed. These soldiers could be the landing commandos who will dig deep holes into the enemy ship's hulls, or taken it over, of course with enough men.
Heading to the production section. Koith, looking down to assembly lines, where the new soldiers of Reichmacht being created. Each of them have a different face, also the different characteristics which not programmed by the AI. On each line, there's a name describe: "Kriegmaschine - Ausf. X", "Kriegmaschine - Ausf. XI", "Kriegmaschine - Ausf. XIB". And more special, there are two lines with the soldiers described as: "Kriegmaschine - Ausf VIIIB" and "Kriegmaschine - Ausf IXB".
-You're trying to cloning ourself, Kane?-Koith shocked after seeing this.
-Nein, bruder!-Kane shook his head-I'm trying to breed our essences into these soldiers. They will do their jobs and their missions, while we're only the "Ausf. A"!
Koith doesn't want to hear it. He doesn't want another might step into his feet, and with these soldiers, carrying his own essences, he couldn't bear the loss of more good men.
Back to the office, the intelligence officer reported:
-Sir, we'd received the news that the unknown enemy had wiped out the allies of the Clusters! Some lost their entire civilizations, some being subjugated, and some scattered from their homeland, awaiting for a desperate hope!
-It's not a fine day for Vexus and her daughter now!-Koith sighed-We must be ready! They will aim to us next!

"Right," Blair said, "So I assume I just destroy as many drones as possible before my health runs out."
She smiled, blasting one of the drones with the heat ray and freezing another before propelling forward and hitting it with a powerful punch.
"Tell me," She said, grinning, "What's the high score?"
((OOC:I'm assuming it's okay to just jump in, Agai, but if it's not I can fix this post to suit your needs.))

((What do you mean, Champ? Everything seems fine so far. Blair knows how to use 2/3 weapons and can fly, she can take care of the rest until the need for the Light-Ray gun arises, which is unlikely considering Koith's methods. My "needs" were just to prepare a normal human for a space battle involving high-tech aliens.
Yeah, we need to get this war on the road.))
"Eighty-five, comparable to fighting three kaiju in a row." Jericho said, as a number appeared next to Blair's score on her HUD. The number went from zero to two after Blair's first attacks. Jericho deactivated his comm-link and sat back to enjoy the spectacle.
"She's better than I thought," He mused, "I hope Kazama takes this well..."

Earth Orbit,
On the Reichmacht Moon Outpost, the first Vertigo cruisers arrived for deployment. Inside the space control, the Reichmacht officers spotted a strange meteoric activity. It's not a threat to the human civilization, but why doesn't the Earth spot anything on their Hubble?
That meteor passed through the atmosphere and got impacted into the surface of Neo Berlin Islands. Fortunately, nothing damaged, but attracted the soldiers nearby, who were shocked after looking to that thing, made of metal.
At the same time, Kane's comm got a call:
-Adjutant, we'd secured a meteor got impacted to our HQ!
-Any casualties?-He asked.
-Negative, sir! But the thing is. That thing is artificial. We'd never seen anything like it before!
-So bring it to the R&D and see what we can dig up!-Kane replied.
Then, the transmission ended. While discussing with Vexus about the possible retaliation, Koith had heard the story. He says:
-Do you mind that meteor is the message from our enemy!
Nodded, Kane answers:
-You're right, bruder! Maybe, it's a threat, of course!

Seeing the next set of drones approaching Blair activated the heat beam again, sliding it from one to the other before dashing to the last drone, seizing it and blasting it apart. She frowned slightly, realizing she had to get more varied with her tactics, but she had to admit, piloting a mech was much easier than she'd expected.

Something came to Jericho's mind as he hurriedly turned on his comm-link.
"Oh, I forgot to mention, the drones get smarter and tougher with each wave. Their shots can deal more damage now."

Reichmacht R&D Facility
Koith, Kane, Marie and the engineers are all around that metallic meteor on the table. These patterns on that thing wasn't from the mankind. After a quick analyze, the top engineer reports:
-According to the radioactive measure, this thing wasn't the lost object of somewhat civilization in the outer space. It's was made, and being sent here intentionally!
-So who'd sent us this thing?-Marie wants to know who had sent this thing.
-Possibly from the ones want to attack us!-Koith smirked-Or possibly, one of their victims!
Then, that cubicle thing suddenly opened. Everyone was shocked and after that thing is not a bomb, they're relieved. From the beacon inside the meteor, a hologram projector activated. There's a man, in the black armor and cape. Under his helmet, he says:
-To the people of the Terra of the Solari system! We. Are the mighty Azerni Empire! Here, is the message to you! Give up all of your resistances, and bow before our strength, our army! Or else, you shall suffer the consequences, just as your ally. The Clusters!
-So who do you think you are!-Marie feels angry before these words-You came from the space, trying to subjugate us? Then you will sorry before what you'd faced!
-Calm down!-Koith reassures-It's the one-way words! I don't think they will hear your answer!
Then, the transmission terminated. Kane concludes:
-So, the Azerni had left a threat to us! Now, we must prepare soon!
-Indeed!-Koith nodded-Mobilize the Vertigo cruisers and the Black Wings! Send them to the Moon Outpost! I will meet them there for the brief!
-Roger!-The officers saluted, then ran into their missions.
-Kane!-Koith also ordered-Alert the Skyway and the G-Force! Give this message to them! Let em' know the time is short!
-Ja!-Kane saluted. Then he started doing what his mission issued.

"Right,"Blair said, watching the next wave approach.
She fired at one, but to her surprise it dodged, giving another enough time to get behind her and get off a few shots. She flew forward, frowning, before ducking beneath the drone that had hit her, waiting for the others to track her before flying behind it. The others opened fire, destroying their ally, and she fired the heat beam, hitting one before sliding the beam across to the other.
"Okay," She said to herself, "Maybe this'll be harder than I thought."

As the next group ascended Blair picked a target quickly, racing to intercept it, but before she could reach it she was propelled up, turning to see she was being hit from below. Frustrated she flew down, firing a beam behind her to stop the shots of the other two drones. She managed a devastating kick on the unit below her, but knowing the others were tracking her she turned, managing to freeze one while taking hits from the other. As she watched the other unit fall she tried to fire on the other, but it dodged each time. Frustrated she looked for an opening, catching the still-falling frozen unit in the corner of her eye. It took her only a moment to realize what to do, as she raced to the frozen bot, grabbing it and launching at the other unit, firing at the same time to box it in. The frozen unit collided with the last remaining drone, destroying it. Blair gave a heavy sigh, surprised that she had managed to survive the round.
"I can't believe I'm saying this," She said over the comm, "But I think I'm starting to like piloting this thing."
