(Silas)
The signal i picked up came from a handheld source that wasnt too far away, but the gigantic electric motor above me screwed with it.
".his is ...mander Fox, I h..e kille..Brian Osiiiro... fused the threat from d Gutavv...attle is not woon yet. ntruders alry insi of thbase; wantxtermationeams be fmed iediaty. Anwill meoneleaseet me morpine..."
Even through the static i heard his voice sound weak and lacking of his usual tone. But he kept his sense of humor, so he must have been allright.
The tunnel seemed empty. There was no one above or below. The rotating fans were so loud and repeditive that all noise was drowned out. Only the constant whiiiirrrr of the blades through the air.
My sensors picked up a seismic reading resonating through the metal shaft. Above me an explosion took out one of the main fans and blew a hole in the duct. The shrapnel landed on my suit, but didnt damage its armor.
There was no sign of any humans in the duct. The bomb must have been triggered by remote or time. This place was big enough for a mobile suit to squeeze through, but tat was not a good idea. The ducts leading away were too small.
The radio tranmission warned of the danger of enemy suits, not people. This was just a distraction. The enemy was somewhere else.
I got back into the duct that i came from and sent a signal to the command room.
"This is Silas. Main air shaft clear. The explosion was a distraction. The enemy must be somewhere else. The damages inflicted will not impede air supply or allow enemy MS entry. Im returning to the main hangar. Silas out."

"Sir, sensors dedect a rapidly approaching group of mobile suits! ETA- ..." There was slight confusion in the computer monitoring room in Alemeda, but it was all soon greatened by a mass explosion! Shaking the room, the commander yelled out: "Status report!" "Sir, mass damage at the south side of our second main hangar. the loading doors have been brached! Approximetely 45 percent of the cargo hold has been damaged extensively!" "Damn! What the hell is going on?! Who's attacking us?" "Sir, the approaching mobile suits are here! They've entered the breached hold!" "What team are they with?!" "They appear to be Shinter Zaku's, Sir. thirteen of them. But no, they seem different somehow." A camera in the hold zoomed in on one of the Zaku's revealing the all too infamous Kunstliches Herz insignia. "They're suits belonging to the Kunstliches Herz, captain! The same ones sighted before the shower of debree earlier." "They must have been waiting all this time."
Four Zakus led the way into the monstous hold, into a decemating site. Parts of the ceiling were coming down, workers fleeing all around- mere flies ot the mobile suits. Once the dust and smoke cleared slightly, there were now all thirteen Zakus in the entrance way. Almost in perfect unison, each one raised it's custom prefered heavy machine gun and the carnage began. Helpless people getting blown away by explosions and massive bullets. Others getting crushed beneath debree and the feet of Mobile suits. All hell broke loose as one of the suits shot a grenade charge into the center of the room. In a matter of seconds, the whole bay was consumed in a ball fo fire. "There's a tunnel to the north, watch out Gunter! There may be some Gundams approaching! Cover the entrance and waste everything that moves!" "Yes Sir!"
It felt good listening to all the gunfire and screaming. The crackling of fires eating people alive. Luckily, I wasn't there to smell it. Ordering my men through comm links from elsewhere in my Eingundam, how i wished i was able to join them. Just then, one of them contacted me with an interesting question. "Sir, there's an Einhander lying here, should is destroy it?" "Do it" There was the unmistakable tong of the grenade leaving the barrle and suddely a boom. I watched my screen for the fire to clean and the ship was nevermore. Laughing silently to myself, I wondered: " Should I really have let her go with them? Huh... oh well."
Back in the Cargo hold, the action was starting to let up when all of a sudden a Mobile suit moved swiftly into Gunter's sights. The midnight faction was pinned down. they lost one suit allready and if they advanced the death toll would only increase. One such example, another suit attempted to dash into the holds, immediately meeting a barrage of shells to the chest. It went down. Although, fast, they're speed was now rendered almost useless. Gunter contacted his superior commander once again: " Sir, we have a party of mobile suits pinned down, should we call in backup to pursue them?" "Leave them be, for now. Just hold your current posiitions and waste anything that moves. I have a plan." "Yes, Sir!"
As i still lay seated in my Eingundam, growing ever so anxious for destruction by my own hand once more, i hoped for her return.

Leo, Saydon, and Kurow were lucky; they had made it inside of the Main Deck seconds before the attack.
The scene on the command deck was a hectic one.
"Sir! What can we do about the K.H.?"
"Completely seal off the Main Deck and close all points of entry further into the compound from that spot. Keep all anti-aircraft internal beam cannons aimed for the sky to ensure that no one else makes a move. What is our max effective range on those things?"
"Sir, approximately twenty miles. They are rapid-fire as well, sir."
"Good. Move our interior security forces flush against the hangar to ensure that no enemy suit gets any further. Tell MS Division 2 to fall back and guard the hangar exit; make them fire high explosive charges to flush the enemy out."
The technician does so and relays the message, and the plan goes into action. Division 2 moves back from the front lines, fortify themselves, and open fire with everything they've got into the hangar bay filled with Zakus. Beam cannons, missiles, beam rifles, beam gatlings, tons of energy rounds tear through the air and into the room...#nosmileys

Still lying in their tactical position, the Kunstliches Herz forces continued lying in wait for more enemy troops to show themselves. Then suddenly, all the seperate bulkheads in all connecting tunnels closed down. The main doors were now blocked. The sound of mass movement, deffinately mobile suits, could be heard on the opposite side. Still keeping cqalm, all the K.H. suits remained in their positions, monitoring the only other tunnel that hasn't been sealed off. "Sir, we're in a stalemate situation Yamato. They've sealed off all connecting doors including the main one. we're almost positive there's suits on the other side and we also have the only unsealed tunnel covered. If anyone moves in, we'll deafeat them for sure. What should we do, Sir? should we attempt an offensive on the door?" "No, it's too risky. You guys have the advantage over the one tunnel so half of you stay to guard that. The rest of you take out one of the doors on the south side. Retreat into that and take cover. As for the ones covering the tunnel, fall to the end of the cargo bay, but keep on holding it. Destroy anything that moves. Guter...?" "Yes Sir?" "How many of the high explosive rounds do you have left for your weapon?" " I still have enough to knock out the main door at least Sir." "Nevermind it. Ill ordeer the ZSSA to take it out. Just take your men and run the hell out of their." "Yes Sir!" After blowing out one of the smaller doors to the southwest of the cargo hold, half of the K.H. retreated as fast as they possibly could. The rest fell back, still having their sights covering the tunnel. Within minutes, a mini-missle fired from the ZSSA zoomed by, preceding a massive explosion. Completely destroying the door and most of what, and who, was behind it, there was mass casualties. A few workers scrambling were instantly incinerated, while being crushed under destroyed moble suits, now falling. "Sir, the door has been taken out, should we procede?" "No, wait a little while and take defensive positions. Prepare to wipe out anything that comes your way. I'll give you ordes when the coast is clear. And watch your backs." "Yes Sir," "Oh, and one more thing..." "Sir?" "Is 'she' still with you?" "Yes, would you like me to notify her, she's with the second unti protecting the tunnel." "Yes, I would liek to speak with her. Put her through" Gunter patched Haruko through in order to speak with Yamato. "Commander?" "Haruko, it's me." "Yamato, you know this is fun. I can see why you get a kick out of it." "Now don't get careless now. I want you back in oen peice you know." "YOU want ME back?" "Look, what i meant was, just on't die out their ok?" "I'll make it back." "Over and out then." "See ya!" All hell broke loose as more suits ran into the cross fire of the K.H. Zaku's. Just then, one of them lost their head and went down. The pilot ejected, and was picked up by a fellow member moments later. "Few, thanks. I owe you one." "Just don't die on us." "You got it." Just then, enemy troops approached the rear of the K.H. zaku team, but were instantaneously decimated by yet another taste of the ZSSA. Soem of them getitng up after the shockwave, all glad for the rescue. "Holy Shit! That was close!" "Hell yeah, if it wasn't for our buddy in the ZSSA, we would have been wiped out man!" "You said it." They continued their defensive behavior, when they were contacted by their leader to do so otherwise. All zakus, other than ones still holding their ground at the tunnel, barged onwards with guns blazing. Totally annilating anythign and everything. Then it happened. more enemy troops moved in and the Zakus took cover. "Dammit, they jsut keep coming!" "We jsut need ot hold them off until... AAAAHHH!" Even before finishing his sentence, a humble member of the K.H. was no more.

Silas got knocked back in his suit from the pulse of the explosions.
'this is where the enemy was sending in mobile suits. I cant fight them here.' Silas thought as he ran down the opposite direction. Walls slid down in the tunnels, blocking all entry and exits.
"Damn it! This is Silas to command tower. Im stuck in my current position. Get the doors in the east wing open!"
"We cant allow that. The enemy has allready breached our main doors with missile fire. We have to slow them down at all costs. They arent headed in your direction, so you will be safe there."
'Screw that!' Silas almost yelled out. He shot at a small ventilation duct with his gun and knocked it out. After going inside he noticed it headed back to the main vertical air shaft. From there he could go anywhere by following one of its branches.
"Silas to command. Im back in the vertical air duct. I can travel just about anywhere. Any sign of teh human insurgents?"
"Negative. Most the the complex is damaged and camera feeds arent relyable. Gabe encountereed one near the main deck, but the insurgent was alone. You can bet they are somewhere else. Try the South wing for now. Thats where the Herz bastards or headed. We cant let them meat up. Try to enter the south wing."
"Roger, Silas out."

Saydon opened the door to the room to see Gabe with aimee. They were both wounded and tired from the loss of blood.
"Wow. What did i miss?"
Brian saw the carcass of the almost beheaded Brian lying on the floor not too far away. Since his limbs were very limp, he must have died slowly. Brians maniacal smile remained on his face.
Saydon pulled out his G-18 and fired all 31 rounds into Brians body, tearing little holes in him. Blood rushed out and poured from the new holes, the old ones had allready crusted up.
After reloading a new magazine he Saydon set the gun back to semi auto, and went over to Gabe.
"You able to stand?"
At the sound of slow footsteps Saydon spun around and aimed his gun towards the door. At it stood a rookie soldier.
"Who the hell are you! Whats your name!"
"Masato Nishikawa, Sir!"
Saydon lowered his gun and sighed. If this had been the enemy, he might have been dead. Saydon turned around back to Gabe and Aimee. He was pissed that some rookie would sneak up on him.
"Heh, im not a soldier of NA, you dont have to call me sir. Make yourself usefull and get these people some bandages and medicine, rookie."
"Uh sir..."
"What?"
Masato pointed over to the cabinet. It was white with a big red cross on it.
Saydon smacked his head. "Damn it! Duh!"
Gabe laughed quietly but stopped from the pain of his injuries. Saydon pretended that he didnt hear them and went over to the cabinet.
"Here Gabe take these." Saydon threw down some random things from the cabinet"

Gabe struggled to speak. He was worn out right now; perfect timing too-right in the middle of an attack.
"What took you so long..." Gabriel asked with sarcasm.
"Hey, I wanted to leave you alone so you could take Brian on by yourself."
"But you were watching, weren't you," Gabriel countered. "Was it a good show?"
Saydon shook his head as he covered Gabriel's wounds with bandages. And upon administering morphine, he helped Gabriel stand to his feet.
"Wow. My head hurts a little bit."
"It should be hurting a lot; you took a bad beating," Saydon returned, as he was bandaging the battered Aimee up.
Gabriel walked over slowly to help her, and held her in his arms as Saydon gave her morphine. Her eyes were open now, and looking into Gabriel's.
"Is...is Brian dead?" she asked.
"Yes." Gabriel replied, stroking her hair softly. He took her hand and held it, massaging it. "He's no longer a member of the living."
Gabriel looked to Saydon. "Where is Silas?"
"He's somewhere in some air ducts trying to find out where the other Osiris intruders are."
Gabriel's eyes widened. "There are more?"
"Yeah. They came in with Brian."
Gabriel paused a moment to think. He made a quick decision and lifted Aimee up into his arms. He was clearly in some physical pain, but was ignoring it. He began to walk off into the distance, Saydon and Masato following him. He called over to Masato to bring over his katana and its scabbard.
"Where are you going? You can't possibly fight in your condition! Damn it man, don't be stupid! You don't even know where they are headed!"
Gabriel stopped at the video consoles on the far side of the Deck. He could see nothing abnormal, but could sense that was a lie.
"Kill the head, and the body dies..."
"What?"
"The command center...the head of Alameda. Take it out, and you'll take over. We have to get to my armory in my quarters as soon as possible. I've got more body armor, plus more weapons we can use."
Gabriel struggled off to the elevator, but Saydon and Masato helped him along. They had to get to his office as soon as they could, and arm themselves to the teeth-the only hope for Alameda's survival was the Command Deck, and it could not be lost.#nosmileys

"Alright Shadow, this is your time to shine. Begin charging your Mega Particle Cannon. There are some huge AA guns on Alameda, so I want you to take them out. Do you copy?"
Ain was getting sick and tired of watching and waiting the battles, and soon he, Shadow, and Drake would all be on Alameda with three Slades and seven Zakus.
"Mega Particle Cannon is collecting energy," replied Shadow. He wasn't the sit on your butt type, and all the wait was getting them all pissed. "It should take about another minute."
"It shouldn't be too hard to get down there," Drake chimed in. "The enemy isn't expecting an outside attack, and half of the AA guns are either trashed or malfunctioning. Just give Shadows Particle Cannon a whirl, and lets get down there."
Minutes later, Shadow's Mega Particle Cannon had finished charging, and had sent its energetic beams tearing into a few of the AA guns.
"We have no time to spare. We have allies down there, and we should be helping out. Full speed until we reach an altitude of 1000 feet, and from there, quickly desend. Rendezvouz at the set coordinate I'm sending to all of you."
In all of the Gundam unit's HUBs, a green point blinked frantically, marking the point where they were all supposed to meet up after the drop.
"Beginning descension sequence. Out." Was the unanimous chimed answer throughout the headsets, and all the MS began rapidly decending through the atmosphere.
25 minutes later, all the MS had landed just outside of Alameda.
"All landed and accounted for. Slade team: Pointman in Delta Formation, all Shinter Zakus, bring up the sides and rear. Move!"
Almost acting as a part of his mind, as he issued the commands, all part of the unit reacted, just as they would in battle. Without delay, all of the Shinter unit moved quickly to the main hangar.
"Shadow, I want you to get the east hangar door open. Understand?"
"Yes. I'll get going to my work now."
And with that, the Blaugeese did his dirty work with his Mega Particle Cannon on the east hangar door, blowing it open with explosive force.
"Now everyone! Get in! I want the Slades: Lead, zakus, pour hell onto all unfriendly MS. Try to clear a path so we can all get through. MOVE!"

The somewhat loud mechanical sound made by the sliding of the room's armored door echoed throughout the short corridor, as Gabriel opened it and stumbled in. Following him were Saydon, Aimee, and Masato. He walked over to the wall and switched on the lights, and then pointed the group over to a dark doorway to his right. A keypad console with illuminated numbered buttons hung on the wall, next to another armored door. Gabriel quickly tapped in a seven digit passcode, and the door opened. What was revealed was a large room filled from floor to ceiling with weapons.
"Aisle 1 is the combat gear section, aisle 2 is submachine guns, aisle 3 is assault rifles, aisle 4 is small arms, aisle 5 is close quarters, and aisle 6 are hand-to-hand combat tools. Ammunition is located on all top shelves. Pick whatever you can carry; we are going to need a lot of firepower."
The group split up, each going to different sections and picking up their desired loadouts. Gabriel slowly walked over to the combat gear area, followed by Aimee. She helped him remove his old body armor, and replace it with a new level 4 kevlar utility vest.
"Aimee, go ahead and arm yourself with something. I don't want you to be seen as defenseless."
Aimee nodded in reply, and began dressing herself for combat. Gabriel put on tactical knee pads and elbow pads, and exchanged his old pair of work boots with a new combat ready pair. He wrapped his hands and lower forearms in black bandages, and grabbed a balaclava and a ballistics helmet. He then proceeded to the armament racks, passing by Aimee as she put a kevlar vest of her own on, also of level 4 strength. Gabriel quickly made his way to his sword racks, katana in hand.
"Kurotatsu katana, you have served me well. Let's get you cleaned up and ready for the trials ahead."
He lifted the sword up and set it on a cleaning rack, then grabbed a bottle of cleaning solution and a rag. Brian's blood had dried in the amount of time since his death, but came off as the cloth soaked in blade cleaner smoothly passed along the blade's surface. Gabriel ran the cloth along the katana's wavy tempered line, from kassaki to tsuba. He examined the sharpness of the sword's ha, or cutting edge, noticing amazingly that there were no imperfections-even after the vicious battle between him and Brian. And after removing the remaining blood spots he oiled the blade and wiped off all excess. Within a matter of minutes his sword looked as good as new, and as shiny as ever. He sheathed it in its scabbard, set it atop its display stand and continued on to the gun racks. As he passed by he grabbed an M4, a laser sight, scope, and enough ammunition to last for an extended period of time. He also grabbed ammo for his Desert Eagle, as well as flashbangs and a few white phosphorous grenades. Moments passed and he was completely ready, and went back to the sword racks to retrieve his katana.
"Aimee, could you come here for a moment?"
She finished organizing her loadout and came to see Gabriel, who was standing next to his katana.
"Can you attach this to my vest for me?"
Aimee smiled, and took the sword from his hands. As he turned around she began securing the weapon into place. Once this was done he turned around to face her, and held her hands in his.
"Aimee, I love you so God damn much. I don't want to lose you. Please, be careful out there."
She smiled once again and leaned forward, and gave her lover a passionate kiss. "I love you too, and I promise you will never lose me."
"So sorry to interrupt your kissy-kissy session here, but if we want to get an edge on those Osiris bastards we'd better move now."
Gabriel turned his head to see that it was Saydon who was talking, with Masato behind him. Both had picked out the weapons they desired, and were ready to go. Gabriel turned back to Aimee and smiled, then took his ballistics helmet and balaclava from the table. He pulled the black mask over his head and face, and secured the somewhat heavy kevlar ballistics helmet on top of his head. Aimee followed, and so did Saydon and Masato.
"Let's go!"
The team quickly exited the armory and left the room, closing the heavy door behind them. They paused in the central part of the corridor to discuss the battle plan.
"Okay, here goes. There is only one main entrance to the Command Deck, and it is relatively heavy guarded. But that is not to say that Osiris can't penetrate, they know our defenses and I'm sure they know how our forces think, so for them it could be easy money. What we must do is enter from the emergency exit, and create a defensive perimeter around the Integrated Combat Command Center. That is where one must go in order to control Alameda; and that is where my uncle, the Commandant, is located. We have to kill all Osiris troops without hesitation, for we can't afford any mistakes. Everyone got it?"
The other team members nodded their heads in reply.
"Okay then. The emergency exit is west of here, through about seven tight corridors. Move out!"
Gabriel took point, and the team followed. Masato acted as rear security. It would take them at least ten minutes to make their way to the ICCC, which could give Osiris a chance to take the upper hand...#nosmileys

Leo, did you just kill me? If so, I guess I'll hang up my hat at this RPG and leave for good. Your post said that all MS were destroyed, but you made no mention of Shadow's Blaugeese, Drake's Gundam, and my Swift Wing. How could one Gundam destroy three without recieveing a scratch, as well as a whole unit of Zakus and Slades?
And to say I b.s.ed alot.

Leo didn't kill you...you're not even in the same hangar as Leo was in.
We all know it was exaggerated and a little one-sided, and it needs to be changed, but just don't worry about it. Treat it like this for now: Leo killed a few of KH Zakus but sustained damage himself. It doesn't say so right now but it will be modified to say so and also for clarity. K?

Gabe got all of his gear on and was talking to Aimme. Saydon took a couple of HE grenades and extra ammo clips of all sizes. He also took a Lv.4 bosy armor plate and stuck it in his kevlar. He took an AK103 and threw it at masato.
"Here, take this. Its basically just an AK47, but better. Its easy to use and their is plenty of ammo."
Saydon took up a FN P90 and looked at it. It took him a while to learn how to load the unusual gun.
"Damn, what the hell is wrong with this thing!"
The extra long 50 round clips hung in the pouches and were attached to his belt. Saydon loaded up on armor, knee pads, elbow pads, kevlar on the neck, legs, back, arms, everywhere.
"With this weight, im not gonna be running anytime soon."
Saydon looked at gabe. He was wearing a clunky body armor plate and holding his katana.
"Yo, gabe, how the hell do you expect to use that sword with that body armor? you cant move worth shit in these. "
"And masato, quit messing around and get something man, this isnt a mall."
Before they left Saydon picked up a calico and put a couple extra mags in his backpack.

(Silas)
Silas walked in the the vents until he heard faint footsteps underneath. They were fast, and there were multiple people. If this was the enemy, then he could ambush them here. But if this were freindlies, then he couldnt take that chance. He decided to call Gabe.
"Gabe, this is silas. Where are you right now? I have a couple of people underneath me. i just want to know who before i shoot them. Who knows, it might be you. The other Osiris soldiers are most likely headed for the command center, and im a little away from there. If thats not the enemy then ill try to find an exit out of this air ventilation system. Whats your current location?"

"We are located at..."
Suddenly, gunfire began to echo down the passageway. Gabriel knew then that the attack had already begun.
"Just Northeast of the Command Deck! We're hearing gunshots right now, and we're on the move!"
Gabriel pulls out a small portable laptop GPS, and checks their location.
"Silas, those footsteps underneath you aren't us! I guarantee you that! We're headed as fast as possible to the Deck; and surely will need some of your computer expertise. If you need any weapons there is an armament locker for MPs in the ICCC! Gabriel, out!"
Gabriel and the team rushes as fast as possible down the long and curved corridors in order to reach the Command Deck's emergency exit.

(Command Deck)
Bullets whizzed past as the Osiris troops made short work of the first line of MPs. They eventually forced their way inside of the compound, pushing farther and farther inward so that the Command Center officials would have nowhere to go.
The most powerful line of guards fortified themselves next to the main doorway of the ICCC, others guarded all air ducts and other possible points of entry. Each of the men wore a layer of body armor-level 4 strength. Atop their heads they wore kevlar ballistics helmets. Their armament consisted mainly of fully automatic assault rifles and SMGs, and a few M203 grenade launchers here and there. Once they saw their attackers come around the corner, they opened fire.
Thus began the fight for the command deck.#nosmileys
