-Ishikawa-

In response, Ishikawa gave Raven a grin that was undoubtedly proud.

"I have with me a working Fulcanelli-type Eternal Engine and Prana Converter --- the same bioenergy-converting mechanism that powers the Psybuster and gives it the magical destructive power it wields in Masaki Andou's hands, straight from the alternate world that the Psybuster was reported to have had came from --- stolen from that very world." Ishikawa reported, patting the box next to him gently. "As well as some scribed notes on its usage and interface from a tome obtained there as well. I've run some minor tests on it so far, and its biorhythm readouts are nominal --- exactly as it seemingly is intended for.

"The power of the Psybuster, as you are no doubt aware then, are quite possibly equal, if not better, than the likes of the Valsion wielded by Bian Zoldark himself. With this Eternal Engine installed in our machines and piloted by yourself --- or an equally-suitable candidate at your choosing, Lady Sterling --- we will be able to regain an equal, if not superior, footing against the DC and avenge their past transgressions against us."

That was exactly the information the bridge was looking for in this conversation. Everything was being recorded into the ship's computer and the Captain was twisting his bears in anxiousness.

"We need to get that engine before it makes it to Fandom. I want a Valkyrie squad put together to quickly intercept that shuttle. Orders are to capture it if possible or destroy it if unable. I don't want anyone in that shuttle to survive." The Captain gave his orders and they were transmitted to deck 3 where Dreacon's Gundam was being kept. The Captain nodded to Kyle who got the message and turned to Dreacon.

"I want you to help them in this operation. I'll prepare a second squad around me as a second wave." He asked for Dreacon to join the raiding party if the guy was able.

"These ships will prepare a full broadside if the enemy tries to escape you guys. I want this done fast, clean, and without incident. Before the battle begins we will broadcast long range jamming to prevent any sort of call for help. Just do this."

The order was given to Delta Squad on the third deck and eight VF-11Gs were scrambled. Space type FAST packs were provided with one member of each four man team given a Jamming FAST pack to provide added stealth and electronic warfare capabilities to the fire wave attack team. They weren't given the order to launch yet... They had about 10 minutes before they were in prefered attack range.

"Is that so? Then I look forward to your delivery. I am changing course to meet you and am launching escort mobile suits to cover you as that shuttle will not last long if someone decides to attack."

Raven terminated the transmission and ordered the course change to the bridge as well as the launch of 6 mobile doll system equipped Gera Dogas on sleds to help them get to the Blue Gale more quickly.
Within minutes, the Dominance was on her way as well as the mobile suits launched from her decks.

-Melodius-

Necronomicon, Inner Rim, near Side 2 Shoal Zone

This doesn't feel right, Tuxedo Mask thought to himself, standing on the bridge in his trademark pose, arms at his waist and masked as ever. The SPARTANs around him kept working, paying TM little to no attention. That was fun, but now we're back to doing nothing. The devil finds work for idle hands, and for a magical hero, being idle is akin to being cancelled. I'm going to strangle someone in the Overdeity Department myself if I get Put on a Bus again...

Melodius soon burst into the bridge with big strides, answering TM's question. TM turned with a blink. "Yes, Commander?"

"We have new orders from the Emperor---ahem, I meant my Master, Tuxedo Mask." Melodius said bluntly, noting TM cocking his eyebrows once at the slip. Inwardly he grinned; The slip was deliberate, and the more Tuxedo Mask was convinced that the slip was a Star Wars ripoff, the less attention he was going to pay towards finding out who Melodius' true Master was. "We are to head to Low Orbit immediately using our Run feats for quintuple Fly Speeds."

"So from the Outer Rim all the way back to Earth on short notice..." Tuxedo Mask pondered, rubbing his chin and pacing in a circle. "What're we supposed to do there, Commander?"

"There's a Fandom shuttle in Low Orbit, heading for the Fandom Mothership." Melodius explained, stopping next to TM and staring passively at him. Towards the pacing, Melodius' expression was indifferent at best. "It's about to come under attack from the Lunar Corp. We're to head to that area and passively observe the shuttle's progress, for the most part; If the Fandom sends a force to protect it, we're to observe only, but if the Lunar Corp makes considerable headway we're to protect it from that attack in the shortest number of Combat Rounds possible and ensure that the shuttle makes it to Sterling's mothership. There's a secondary objective to it, but it's on a need-to-know basis. If it applies, I'll notify you."

Tuxedo Mask nodded skeptically. "Yes, Commander, but our SPARTANs are still undergoing maintenance after our assault on Trinary, and Gyunei---"

"Gyunei will do whatever I tell him to do, Quess or not." Melodius finished with a bitter aftertone in his voice. "Besides, Shadow Company is going to sit this one out. It's just you and me for this one, Tuxedo Mask. Yes, it seems a little trivial against the Lunar Corp fleet, numbers-wise...but if all goes well, we won't even need to get involved ourselves."

"How're we all going to get there in time?"

"Remember those Custom Magic Items I got for us in Libot?"

Tuxedo Mask nodded blankly.

"One of those happens to be a giant sled equipped with the Voiture Lumiere." Melodius smiled with a devious gleam. "I've prepared for the possibility of needing to send a small strike team somewhere in a hurry. We both pile onto it and hit the Voiture Lumiere with a macrowave transmission from the Necronomicon --- at our current position, we'll be there in twelve minutes, fifteen at the most. Once we reach a considerable proximity, we'll get off the sled and observe; the Necronomicon will follow and extract us later."

"You seem to have thought of everything, Commander."

Sycophant, Melodius muttered inwardly, but nodded. "We don't have much time, TM. Let's move."

Moments later, a giant Shackles with two machines on it --- the Dezpada and the large Duraxyll --- shot out of the Necronomicon and began flying towards the direction of Ishikawa Shigetaka's shuttle; Five seconds afterwards, a small, green beam shot out from the Necronomicon's bow and connected with the sled's stern, where the output generator was located, and the sled began accelerating...and accelerating, until it had built up more than enough speed to get there in a hurry. The Necronomicon was soon left behind by Melodius and Tuxedo Mask.

-Ishikawa-

After Raven terminated the transmission, Ishikawa Shigetaka frowned. If tempting fate was inevitable, the Blue Gale was indeed a sitting duck to whatever the Federation decides to throw at them. The temporary treaty between SNRI and the Fandom, after all, didn't apply for the most part to space, and Ishikawa couldn't let anyone muck this chance up to even the Fandom's odds against the DC.

"Full speed ahead towards the Dominance!" Ishikawa ordered. "And keep our scopes ready. We may come under attack at any moment, so I don't want us surprised if we do."

-Redemption's Bridge-

"Sir long range sensors have detected a Fandom cruiser heading our way. It should be on scene within an hour if the shuttle tries to make an escape."

"Damn... Alright Kyle take Alpha squad and intercept that force. Dreacon and Delta team get your tails out there quickly and capture that shuttle." The Captain gave the order and everyone gave a 'Yes Sir!'.

Kyle headed down to the hanger quickly and got into his EX-gear as his VF-25S was being loaded with a new rifle. It was the second quantum beam gunpod that was also used by the VF-27 and would provide Kyle with some heavy firepower.

-Delta Squad-

The two teams of 4 VF-11Gs were launched from the flight deck of the Redemption as the entire ship went into combat. The three Northhampton class stealth frigates had their own fighters ready just in case it came down to a fight. For now they weren't expecting a heavy battle so two squads of VFs along with the Gundam and the VF-25 should prove enough to deal with a Alexandria class frigate. There were also numerous defense Cheyennes on all four ships as well as the Konig Monster ready to deliver death if needed.

The 8 fighters, two of them with electronic warfare FAST packs, rocketed into battle and dived down on the shuttle with gunpods a blazing. They were aiming at the engines of course in order to disable it.

-Alpha Squad-

Kyle and his own squad mounted up and were next to launch. His black Full Armor pack unit hit all its thrusters and went to intercept the Fandom reinforcements. His own unit was under Active Stealth technology so before they ever knew he was attacking the missile bays opened and he locked onto all of the first Mobile Doll units with flicks of his eyes.

"He who draws blood first shall claim victory..." Kyle smiled as he pressed the fire button and launched 30 of his 200 and something HM micromissiles at the group and then charged in. Behind him the two teams split up and attempted to flank the enemy force. If they survived the initial onslaught they had their own FAST pack missiles ready to finish the job.

- Gera Doga MD squad -

Although they did not detect the enemy fighters until they started shooting, the missiles, though great in number, were no challenge for the dolls combat computers as they quickly locked on and shot down many of the missiles and dodged the rest. They then opened fire on the fighter force with their beam machine guns.

- Dominance bridge -

"Lady Raven, our dolls have been intercepted by a force of Lunar Corp variable fighters. They appear to be trying to capture Ishikawa's shuttle."

"Tch. Nosy bastards butting in where they don't belong. Launch all remaining mobile dolls and prepare my Qubeley. They will not have this prize."

Another 6 Doga dolls took off from the Dominance and shortly after Raven's own Qubeley Mk. II launched from the mobile suit deck as well.

"Commander! Multiple bogeys inbound, heading straight for us!"

Ishikawa sneered. Of all the times to tempt fate...

"Maximum boost and evasives! Get us to the Dominance as quickly as possible!"

As Delta's gunpods rained down at the Blue Gale, some of the shots clipping the left wing and tearing small holes through it, the shuttle rocketed forward in pure speed and began rolling evasively, heading to the Dominance's escorts as its only priority right now. Things weren't looking good for the Blue Gale otherwise; It was doubtful the shuttle could outrun Lunar Corp's Valkyries for long, and sooner or later if the escorts did not get there in time...

-Alpha Squad-

"Mobile dolls... fine you wanna play that game..." Kyle activated the rotating disk on his units back as he made contact with the Ghost fighters stationed on the Redemption. The three fighters started to come to life and began to launch.

Kyle though used his unit's own electronic warfare equipment to shield his unit from the Mobile Dolls who were targeting him. His team had flanked the mobile dolls and unleashed their own barrage of HM missiles at the units as Kyle opened fire with his twin beam guns and a flurry of his beam gunpod.

The team was underfire from the smaller number of units and using their PPBs blocked the fire that threatened them as they returned with their own gunpods and pulse laser fire.

-Fleet-

Behind them the stealth fleet opened its long range missile launchers and loaded spread shot rounds. These were meant to explode and send streams of molten metal to damage rather than destroy their targets. The point was that even if they were intercepted by the enemy frigate the resulting flak would hopefully knock out most of its main guns and other sensitive places.

The fleet fired a total of 15 large missiles in a blooming pattern towards the enemy frigate. Once they detonated they resulting hailstorm of metal would then rain through anything in its path, including mobile suits launched.

-Delta squad-

The 8 fighters saw their prey trying to run and with the interference from the Fandom frigate they priorities changed.

"Delta squad shifting from capture objectives to destroy objectives." The machines then fired off 4 HM missiles each for a total of 32 missiles each at the shuttle as it tried to retreat. They weren't letting it get into range of the enemies defense teams while they still had that window. There was still quite a bit of distance and they bared down until they would see the shuttle blow up or the enemy's Mobile Dolls got into range to be a threat.

-Ishikawa-

In response, two hatches opened on the rear of the Blue Gale as the missiles came at it from behind, and two Chaff Pods were fired behind it as it frantically moved forward, jamming half the missiles; As it then banked right, it fired a second set, jamming all but two, which was all the Blue Gale could do against. The first was a grazing explosion that did little more than tear off some of the starboard paint.

The second detonated near the engines, causing a drop in output.

"Thruster power down! Engine output reduced to 80%! We're slowing down, sir!"

Ishikawa shook his head at that and, taking the box, began heading to a compartment near the front of the shuttle, just outside the cockpit section; With a sigh and a wistful salute at the pilots, Ishikawa bent down, put a finger towards a hidden button on the floor, and opened a hidden hatch on the ground which led into the emergency sections of the shuttle, on its underside. "Gentlemen," Ishikawa nodded and climbed into the hatch and area, which promptly sealed behind him. "Do your best, for the Fandom. It's been a priviledge all the same."

While this was going on, the shuttle kept doing its best to defy its fate.

- Raven Sterling -

"You think such toys can stop me?" said Raven as she launched her funnels and easily shot down the missiles fired from the fleet before they could spread.

Raven took two dolls with her and sent the other four to help in initial six better deal with the Thunderbolts and Kyle.
They were only occupying the enemy, but given the objective of the mission that was just fine as they continued shooting down missiles and returning fire with their beam rifles and sturm faust RPGs.

Raven switched her targets to the fighters attacking the shuttle, while the dolls saw to getting the package out intact. In a display that would make the best dance choreographer jealous, the funnels raced in and out of the formation taking shot after shot at the Thunderbolts. Even with their PPBs, they would not be able to keep up with the angle and number of shots being fired at all eight of them at once.

They would all be dead, or wish they were very soon.

-Delta Squad-

Before the Fandom forces made it into range to attack the squad made its finally attack on the the shuttle. Their Gunpods blazed as it slowed down to a crawl and allowed them to swarm it in gerwalk mode. The game ended for them though as the first beams started to fly forcing the machines to retreat back to the ship. A few were damaged by the funnels but their mix of speed and distance allowed them to take off in the opposite direction like bats out of hell.

-Fleet-

The game was over and they had done all they could... The Konig Monster rose to the deck of the Redemption as all the weapons unloaded on the Northhampton class frigates. Almost without discrimination they unleashed a hellish barrage of green beams and a flurry of mid range missiles to drive off the enemy assault and to get them out of the way of Alpha squad.

"Lt. Ryder get your team out of there we are about to enter fold space." He gave the order as the Konig Monster unleashed its four viggers rail-cannons at Raven and her team of mobile AI from incredible distance.

Then in Macross Frontier fashion the shells detonated...

-Alpha Squad-

"Alright boys time to retreat!" His newtype flashes went off like crazy as the LC fleet delivered its own farewell broadside on the Fandom mobile suits and ships. The VF-11Gs made their attempt to escape even under the heavy fire of the enemy mobile dolls. As they retreated though they unleashed their own FAST pack worth of missiles on the Dolls and everything else that dared attack them.

Kyle on the other hand took note of the NT unit on the field as he turned his third eye on her. With a smile he raised his beam gunpod as the barrel opened up. "Farewell bitch!" With that he fired a beam grenade at her as his three Ghosts dived down on the battlefield unleashing a burst of their four beam cannons and their own missiles. Kyle was the last to attempt the leave the field... He turned was in battleroid mode with his PPB up the full power engulfing his whole unit as he absorbed the assault from the funnels as his team retreated.

Kyle's attack was bold, and nearly succeeded had Raven not been an even more powerful newtype than he was.

Using both her funnels and one of the Gera Doga dolls, she managed to down all three Ghosts by ramming an equal number of funnels into them while shooting down the missiles with the rest and her own beam guns in the forearms of her suit.

The beam grenade was stopped by one of the two dolls that came with her while the other dragged what was left of the shuttle and Ishikawa back to the Dominance.

The rest of the forces took the brunt of the last attack by the LC fleet and were wiped out by the various munitions and gunfire that lit up the sky.

Raven stood back and looked over the situation and noted the loss of half of her funnels and almost the entire mobile doll force she launched.

Well now Ishikawa, let's see if your gift is worth the price paid. thought Raven as she joined the last Gera Doga and both made to land on the Dominance which only suffered a minor hit due to the somewhat unaimed shots by the LC fleet.

Kyle retreated from the battlefield as the Fandom grabbed what was left of the shuttle. If that thing was still intact then that meant this was a failure and he couldn't let this be the end of it. So before Raven could retreat he locked onto her and the shuttle as all the missile bay doors on his Full Armor opened up.

"Infinite Barrage!" He unloaded the last of his missiles on the enemy unit in the hope of damaging it and destroying the shuttle. He couldn't leave it be because that engine could spell the doom of the Earth Sphere. This was his only chance to hopefully save everyone from a future destruction and he gave it all to end this.

All 170 something missiles swarmed the wreckages, the remaining Mobile doll, and the NT mobile suit as Kyle transformed back into fighter mode and took off. His fleet had already jumped to the Moon and LC HQ leaving him to make his own jump alone. He activated his fold and vanished from the battlefield hopefully doing his part to defeat the enemy.

"You still want to try and stop me do you?" Raven asked as she sent the rest of her funnels back out as well as the Gera Doga to stop the missiles as she left herself with the shuttle.
The Gera Doga managed to draw most of the missiles and the ones that came after Raven were fed to her funnels, which were also lost in the blasts.
She didn't think anything of it as they were all expendable anyway and she had what she came for.

-Ishikawa-

Unfortunately for Ishikawa Shigetaka, as he predicted, the Blue Gale didn't get quite so far. As the repeated barrage of missiles came at the shuttle again, and again, there was no way the Fandom could catch all of it. A couple of the missiles that got past Raven's defence line all but tore the Blue Gale's upper section apart, multiple explosions ripping through the pit and hull and sucking its pilots out into space.

Just before the entirely of the Blue Gale atomized, though, a red-painted, round escape pod rocketed out from its underside and straight for the Dominance --- fortunately for Ishikawa and the Eternal Engine he was carrying, moved past Raven's funnels and the MD defence line as the escape rockets on the pod kicked in, and quickly landed it onto the Dominance's flight deck. As the technicians on the Dominance quickly took the escape pod containing Ishikawa and his gift out of harm's way, Ishikawa sighed relief.

That was a close one, but it seemed he made it. All he had to do was wait for Raven to return before presenting the gift --- unharmed, after a quick inspection --- to her in ceremony.

-Melodius and Tuxedo Mask-

Meanwhile, at the very fringes of the battle overlooking everyone, the Dezpada and Duraxyll were floating behind a piece of debris, waiting to see if they needed to get involved. It didn't seem like they did, in the end --- Melodius' eyes widened. Raven Sterling, he had seen, was very powerful; Even moreso than that Stormgunner his Master was keeping an eye on. Once Project Sirene was completed, Raven was going to be quite the threat against it.

But they were not here for the Fandom, or Raven. They were not even here for the shuttle now that it had been destroyed.

Melodius' eyes were on the destroyed Ghost X-9s.

"Impressive," Melodius praised, nodding. "Most impressive, those Ghost X-9s."

"So I'm guessing those are our secondary objectives?"

"If we are presented a chance to. Our priority was the shuttle and its occupant; Now that he's in the Dominance, we aren't ordered to actively involve ourselves anymore, and Sterling's seen the Dezpada. Just wait this out, Tuxedo Mask."

"As you wish."

Melodius frowned. This could be a long wait still. "Wait a few minutes longer; If we're spotted, retreat. After the Lunar Corp and the Fandom leave this area, see if we can grab one of those downed Ghost fighters. We'll take it back to the Necronomicon with us and I'll send it to my Master after we're extracted."

-Kyle-

The VF-25S continued its trip through fold space at a pretty casual speed. Kyle gave a relieved sigh thinking that they had completed their victory and destroyed the Eternal Engine. Little did he know but his final all out attack hadn't do anything in terms of damage and he had failed rather miserably.

"Wow... That was harder than it should have been." He said this to himself as he wiped the sweat from his brow. "That Raven is as powerful as the rumors said... And those Mobile Dolls were not like the average ones we have been fighting." Kyle felt that something had gone wrong in that battle. The enemy reinforcements had arrived way to quickly and despite the massive barrage it still felt like a one sided battle. This should have been their chance but what had happened?

Kyle thought through the battle as the Mobile Dolls overwhelmed them... It had taken everything they had including artillery to destroy them. Then there was Raven and those funnels. Kyle had seen his Ghost's slaughtered like they were nothing... She was a much stronger NT than him or had he just not focused hard enough? Was this because he wasn't strong enough to win?

-Fold message-

"Mission failed Lt. Our sensors had picked up an escape craft from the shuttle just before the battle ended. I'm sorry but Fandom sucessed in aquiring the Eternal Engine."

-Kyle-

The message scrolled of his visor as his fists rolled up in anger. "DAMNIT!" He screamed releasing his own burst of emotion at his failure to win such a simple battle. They should have launched all units and overwhelmed the enemy instead of left so soon. They could have one if he had been more decisive. His unit continued towards Lunar HQ on the Moon...[/i]

Raven soon managed to return to the hanger of the Dominance which closed its door behind her as she was the only one to return.
The ship then set course back toward the Fandom outpost on the outskirts of L1.

The hanger was soon repressurized and Raven came out of her mobile suit and floated down to where the escape pod was secured and waited for Ishikawa to emerge.

-Ishikawa-

A moment later, when the pod hatch hissed and slid open, that was exactly what Ishikawa did. In full dress uniform, Ishikawa strode out of the pod with an excited, eager expression --- odd for the normally stoic and collected Fandom Commander-in-chief. After walking up to Raven, Ishikawa gently set the box down onto the hanger deck, stood back up, and gave Raven a royal salute --- right fist reverently across his chest with a bow.

"Lady Sterling," Ishikawa greeted, but only briefly, and out of protocol; Let the Federation carry their prejudices as they will, but he himself knew Raven was really a no-nonsense, sensible woman who cared little for elaborateness and fancy schticks. Without further ado, Ishikawa picked up the box again and, carefully with both hands, issued it forward for Raven to accept. "The Eternal Engine and Prana Converter, as promised."

Raven only needed to open the box to see the engine, along with the scribed research notes of operation and implementation --- and the main crystal that was the Prana Converter. Alone, in the box, it would pulse dimly every few seconds, but the intensity of the pulses depended on the person carrying it; The stronger the person's Prana, the brighter and more radiant the flashes were in his/her hands. The Eternal Engine was active.

And it was working, as Morpheus promised.

Otherwise, Ishikawa stood at attention, waiting for Raven to comment on it and to ask him any questions she may have. "If I may speak freely, Lady Sterling," Ishikawa interjected after awhile, looking around him once. "...I was half-expecting the Nova Prince to be here personally for such an important task, myself. What has he been up to nowadays?"

Raven was almost entranced by what she saw. The idea that such a device could do all the things that the Cybuster could was now in her own hands and pulsing much brighter than when Ishikawa held it was almost a dream come true. With this, I can finally make my dream for the Fandom come true.

Raven was lost in her own thoughts to the point where she almost didn't hear Ishikawa's question.

-Kyle-

It seemed to take a little longer than normal to get back to the moon... But even as he started to check his position the fighter began to exit fold space. It took a second to readjust his eyes as he entered normal space just above the installation that was HQ. Already harbored was the fleet and as he started to come in for a landing a laser designator took him off course.

His fighter automatically turned and headed for a hangar that had just opened up in the side of a cater which HQ occupied. Like most other lunar facilities they were located in a large crater system. As his fighter landed several guards with NUNS type assault rifles and a man in a Federation uniform was there to greet him.

The Messiah's cockpit opened up and Kyle put his hands up realizing that something bad had happened... Not to far behind him was his most direct boss the Director for Mobile Weapon Testing and Development. The Federation officer stepped forward as Kyle left the cockpit and stared the Valk pilot down.

"Newtype trash..." He raised his hand as the Lunar Corp security was forced to handcuff him. "I want that rebel Gundam pilot captured too! If anyone objects aboard the Redemption then shoot them. Other than that leave them alone because this has nothing to do with Lunar Corp as long as we capture the Newtypes, isn't that right Director?"

The man that had been Kyle's friend for so long lowered his head in defeat. "Yes Sir..." Lunar Corp security then entered the carrier and hunted for Dreacon.

"After you catch him bring him to my ship." With that Kyle was dragged off...
