Sciforums Fleet

"You know your not supposed to be doing that." Kent said as he leaned over the guard rail.

"Someone has to." I said

I was torso deep into the reactor coils withing the generator of my wraith.

"And it has to be you?" he said

"Right." I said

"How narcissistic." Kent said

"Well comeon, we both know there's nobody else here that can do it without running the risk of imminent death." I said

"That doesn't mean you have to." Cade said

"No, that's precisely what it means." I replied
 
Ace came and Rico got in the speeder,

"Hey, why do you call this early? Got a hot date or somethin'?"

Rico smiled and said,

"You'll see,"

"Probably is a chick knowing you,"

Rico then asked,

"Hey, did the Padre get the music?"

"Yeah, gave it to him three days after you left bro, haven't practiced together though,"

Rico then said in a carefree tone,

"We got time, just chill"

"Well, we better, or we'll bomb it in front of a hundred million people or something like that,"

"You can play your crap right?"

"Can you?"

"I wrote the thing bro, 'course I can,"

"Didn't lose your voice crying to help in the jungle right?"

"'Course not, didn't break your hand jerking off right?"

"That'll be Spade,"

They laughed and then Rico said,

"Leave went by so fast eh?"

"Yeah,"
 
Back on the Amaterasu....

Misaka then asked in surprise,

"Whats going on between Shogun and Cera?"

Cera smiled and said,

"You'll find out sooner or later, lets just leave it at that,"

Cera then passed a datapad to everyone,

"Here are your squads and your assignments, my plan is to have forces spread out in strategic locations in the Black Hole Empire looking for Prince Admiral Shogun vi Yamato by any means necessary, once you find him, by any means necessary, bring him back, everyone will stay and keep looking until Shogun makes a public appearance, once you see that, get to a Vichi Frontier or the Xenturians as soon as possible by any means necessary,"

She then looked around and said,

"It is by any means necessary and as you see fit, we are only bringing with us what we can carry on our backs, we are very good at counterfeiting Holian currency, money will be no issue, we will have cut communications when the mission commences, and if you have an emergency, just return to the designated rendezvous points, and safe havens,"

She then waited a while and continued,

"My squad will be operating on the Holian capital Tarsonis, Misaka Mikoto, Shin Taira, Gottfried Minamoto, and Cecilia vi Yamato, ranks and titles will be abandoned in this mission, first name basis preferably, we can all use our real names save for two people,"

She paused and then said,

"Cecilia, you have to change your surname to something like...let me see...Lamperouge, yeah that will do, and Misaka, just keep using your pseudonym, works fine,"
 
"Jesus christ, are you insane? You know what happened to the others."

"I don't care what you think, I have the commandant's authority on this, subject 00000 is to be used for the project."

He grabs my arm and yanks it.

"No!" "Stop!" I yelled

I reached back for the scientists I once considered a father, he just stood there.

"Help! Help!"

"Sutori, Sutori! wake up" I heard

I jolted upright.

"Geez man, I could hear you from across the hall." he said

I was confused

"It was a dream" he said

"Right, a dream" I thought

Just a dream, just a dream, just a dream.
 
A Police speeder pulled up beside them then flash the sirens,

"Stop that vehicle immediately!"

They stopped and then the police officer rolled down his window,

"Son, your license please?"

They looked at each other, they didn't have a license,

"I don't have any sir," Ace said and then Rico laughed,

"What?!"

"But we have our IDs," Ace then pulled out his and Rico followed suit and passed it to the police officer, whose jaw dropped,

"Is that sufficient officer?"

"Yes, yes, more than enough, my apologizes carry on sir and good luck,"

Rico and Ace just burst out laughing afterwards,

"Happens every single time..."
 
I just played my first "real" exhibition rugby for my school. I played exhibition matches before, but we played against our school's other teams ( including the girls team :cool: unique experience ). We completely WRECKED. 38-5. Outside Centerbacker hooah! Go "fancy boys lane"! ( Fancy boys lane is what my coach calls the backs, the forwards get all the mud and blood, backs all the girls and glory ;) ) I got tackled a few times not gonna lie, but I made sweet tackles so that cancels out. I scored 3 tries ( once 2 in two minutes give or take some ). If we lost, we would've blamed the forwards, but now we took all the credit.

Well to be fair, it wasn't balanced, their inside center is small and scrawny, against a fast built guy...not gonna work! Our forwards are big, tall and wide bodies, they were skinny and tall. Scrum and lineouts were completely unfair for us ( they turned to the people they wanted to lift, so it is kinda not hard to guess what play they want to make, while our forwards all turned to face the front and looked like they will fuck them up or something, excuse my language ). Our biggest forwards just pretty much ran forwards and it took like eight guys to bring them down.

My friend got clothlined, one almost got stepped on, one got kneed, one got tackled, and when he tried to get up got smashed right down with an elbow...in the end there was almost a big fight, props started pushing and shoving, me and one of the flankers were sent to break it up, I just decided to screw it and brought one of them ( other team ) down by flipping him. Nobody on our team got penalized :D

I thought some of the people on our team were small...shit I just realized how small some rugby players can be and how unfair it is sometimes...
 
Ha, sick game.

I've never played before, I prefer soccer, I'm by no means super fast, nor super big. But I'm a perfect mid range kicker.

Last year the team I was on had an invincible defense. Literally, it could not have been a more perfect defense.

The sweeper was a big guy, really tall, he had a damn cannon. Literally, he could consistantly hit it further then the mid field line from our goal post.

Then there was the left defensemen, he was great at close in fighting. He could outdo most people when they were in the close in fray. But he was a short range kicker, couldn't really kick excessively far.

I was right defensivemen. Not so good close in, but I was a pretty accurate (or lucky, its funny how often those two get confused) with a kick at mid range.

The midfielder in front of me would pull these awesome combos. Basically, if a guy was ahead of him on the very right side of the field and he couldn't get past, he would kick it back to me, run past the guy guarding him. The guard would charge me and I would kick the ball literally five feet over his head perfectly parallel to the side line which was no more then 5 feet away.

The right middie would run up and grab it then make a run for the goal as the guy guarding him was left literally in the dust.

Then there was our stopper who was like a missile. He ran track and could out run practically anyone we came up against. If someone got past me or the left defense he'd give chase and usually do it fast enough to catch up and get the ball back.

Then there was our goalie, he was an incredible goalie. One time an offensivemen shot the ball literally ten feet away. Our goalie dove into the ground in front of the ball. But he didn't catch it. Instead it rolled back away from the goal about five feet. The offensive men sprinted to kick it in again, all this taking maybe three seconds. Our goalie somehow managed in less then 2 seconds to recover enough to practically jump upwards from a lieing down position and caught the ball that was shot literally from point blank. It was incredible.

Out of an hour and thirty minute game we would literally have the ball on their side for an hour and fifteen minutes.

Unfortunately our offense sucked, scoring maybe twice in a good game. Which is odd because individually our offensivemen were actually quite good.

All in all, we had by far the best defense in our league. We won a lot of games simply because the other team could not score on us.

"Wait, Stop! I don't wanna!" I cried out

I was chained to the bed I was in. I was moving down the hallways in the accursed hospital. With a large plexiglass lid over it that resembled a coffin lid. Gloved sterile hands touching and probing. Needles being stuck into my arm.

They rolled me into the room where a mechanical spider with knives and pincers for arms was on the roof.

I looked over and saw the skinned corpse of my best friend, I played ball with him he was twelve, his face, staring at me like death.

I cried "I don't wanna die!" I screamed

"Get the anesthesiologist out here!" a doctor yelled

"Sutori!"

"No" I yelled

"Sutori! Wake up!"

I bolted upright, drenched with sweat.

"Jesus Tori, I thought you were in trouble." I saw Adder yawning

"Ugh... yah, I guess... nightmare" I said

"Well I'm off to bed. cya" adder said as he walked out of the room

I laid back down.

just a dream, just a dream, just a dream, just a dream
 
"sir were coming out of FTL in 30 seconds" the helmsman reported. "alright, Red alert all stations prepare for combat. Bring the tri-cannons online and activate all counter measures now!" I yelled out. "Dropping out of FTL in 5....4....3.....2....1...0." The helmsman counted down. The ship lurched as it dropped out of FTL. "Alright were's that ship a....... Oh my god..." everyone on the bridge looked at the fleet of ships arrayed around the shipyard in a defensive pattern.

"where's Omega's fleet at?" I asked. "they are 4 minutes away sir." the sensors officer reported. 5 of the 10 enemy ships turned and began to move torwards the Ravager. "Evasive manuvers! Target the cruiser in the front with all tri-cannons! Focus all plasma burst turrents at the two light escort ships heading to intercept us!" the ship shook as shots from the outer defense grids hit the shields in sustained bursts. "aghhh! All axiluary power to the shields fire all mislliles at those turrents! We must clear a way or omega's forcesso they can hit the shipyard." I ordered. "sir incoming fighters from the shipyard!" the weapons officer yelled. "

"Lock all AF guns on those fighters and open fire, Activate all scatterburst cannons too!" I ordered as the ship's shields took another beatingfrom the other three ships long range guns. "omega get here soon we can't take much more of this" I thought as explosions rang all about the ship.

I used to play soccer ( like most people ), I was striker, usually a one-timer. I can't dribble for shit ( due to my speed ), but I am fast, athletic and have a powerful kick. I am accurate, but I suspect it is because of how close I am :D.

For rugby, everyone plays offense, everyone plays defense. Usually though, the forwards get most of the defense action an backs usually more offense action.

No joke, when me and the fly-half sprinted for a try line every time, they shit their pants. Figuratively though, basically they just froze and if ANY one of them tackled the fly-half, I would've been the only ruck ( I'm not gonna lie, if I was the only ruck, I would get destroyed by like 5 kids on their ruck ), or he would've had to pop it to me. If ANY ONE of the SIX kids TRIED to, they would have ended up a lot better off. Well, we did a little psych war on them, basically we screamed and had a killer face on and acted like maniac killers and tackled their....widest guy, kinda put them off and made them rethink :D.

Our forwards are almost perfect for their position, I mean the stereotypical sizes for their positions ( eg. props big and wide, lock tall and skinny ). Our backs are also really good, almost perfect for our positions. We got lucky that we had people that are talented for each position, but we can't play for shit if the backs and forwards switched suddenly.

Funniest parts yesterday:

Our scrum-half voice cracked every time he shouted the plays for lineouts "97 93 Markham!", it sounded soo funny that we were pissing ourselves.

Our winger got clothlined, just as he went to pickup a the ball, some dude decided to run with bis right arm out towards time, and just as the winger stood up, he got hit right in the head. You know when people trip over bannas in cartoons? Well it kind looked like that, I laughed so hard that I had to get subbed ( by a flanker sub ) to stop laughing ( I was right beside him too ). What made it funnier was that,

"I thought I was gonna die, getting mugged by a black guy,"

Our flanker was passing to me, he didn't lead very well ( people lead different for me, because I'm faster ) and the ball hit me right in the back of my shoulder and bounced up to my head, I was shouting "FUCK!"

One of the forwards decided to, like in the drill, drop and deck the ball ( it is during decking and ruck drills that we do that ) as soon as he got the ball, it was hilarious.

Another forward ran and it took like 8 ( exaggeration probs, but close enough ) guys and 3 hanging off each limb to take him down, and he was still crawling, until our coach ordered them to deck and got a ruck over.

The funniest part I think was when I tackled some kid and ripped the ball right out of his hand and booked it down, with the other team chasing me and shouting "Violation!", but it was legit :D
 
"You read for the big day?" Ace asked,

"Yeah, finally after all this time, I hated being called a cadet," Rico answered relieved,

"Same, it kinda in a way implied that we aren't combat ready and qualified, but we kick ass,"

"Stardust Squadron, leading the rest eh?"

"Yeah, I rather it be called Ace's Ass-kickers,"

They laughed and Rico said,

"There it is, there's my house,"

"Well, have fun bro, see ya later, 0800"

"Yeah, see ya,"

Ace dropped him off at the house he was given to for the duration of the leave and then left. Rico opened his mailbox, he sent his stuff from the hospital to the house. He picked up his things and unlocked the door and then threw his things on the floor, he will clean up the day after tomorrow, no need to do it right now. He got a towel and headed for the showers to prepare himself for the graduation.
 
I was barely awake, staring at the reflection of myself in the sink. The red eyes gave it away. I couldn't sleep without having the nightmares again.

I brushed my teeth, put on my flight suit and headed out.

Back into the world

Back into the darkness

Back into the dream
 
After he got cleaned and ready, he got his full dress uniform out of the closet. He put on a tight tactical performance shirt on and compression shorts before getting dressed. He put on his Royal Executioner Cadet Full Dress, it was mainly black, richly decorated with silver and gold. He went downstairs and put on his boots ands gauntlets. He then got his sword and his long, high collared cape. The entire set is a pain in the butt to put on, and he had to make sure he didn't wrinkle the uniform in the least and keep it in its perfect condition. He looked in the mirror and was satisfied, as always with himself, but god knows how much this set of dress uniforms cost, and it was for cadets!

He got to his sports speeder, which was his only and their started it up. He thought about it for a while then decided against calling Celeste ahead of time, she's probably getting ready and he wanted to show up as a surprise. It would be quite a contrast to last night, when he wore a leather jacket, plaid shirt, a band t-shirt and jeans.
 
Rico put on his sunglasses and then took out the piece of paper Celeste gave him while he was asleep. He looked at the address then programmed the nav to that location. He then got the directions, he switched to manual flight as always and took off, flying his high-speed sports speeder at full speed. Normally, he would have his windows down, but he didn't want the wind messing with his uniform this time. He reached down and took a package of gum, popped and piece and chewed it. He was speeding and flying like a maniac, but with the Royal Executioner insignia on the back of his speeder, nobody stopped him. Tarsonis is quite beautiful from the view of the Skylanes, especially the suburbs where he and Celeste lived. The spotted her neighborhood and then dived straight down and pulled up at the last second and stopped the vehicle instantly. He loved doing it, more so in a speeder then even a Mobile Suit.

He stepped out and straightened himself and walked up to the door of the said address and rang the doorbell and stepped back.
 
"Alright, positioned over the right leg, lets begin." the damned doctor said

I heard a whirring sound, getting louder.

"Engaging"

My vision turned red

"AGGHHH!"

It was unimaginable pain, I smelled smoke and burnt flesh. I could barely move with all the anesthesia, and I could still feel it.

"Plasma field is disengaged, begin the transplant." a surgeon said

I could see my leg through their monitor outside of my coffin like bed. All I could see was the muscle and bone.

I was in agony, I couldn't speak, I couldn't scream, I could barely blink.

"Alright, beginning transplant."

I saw the piece of skin, they took it out of some oilly vat.


"tori!"

_____________________

"Damnit, snap out of it tori." Adder said

I was jolted back into...reality. "You've been zoning out a lot." Cade said

I was back in the lunch room

"Yah, uhm, yah" I said drearily

"You don't look so good." Kim said, she put her hand on my forehead

"Jesus christ, your burning up." she said

"What does he have? Some virus? Poison?" Adder said

"We should get you to infirmary to figure out what's wrong." she said, genuinely concerned

"I can save you the step." I said, I could barely feel anything, I haven't felt this shitty since I got nailed with a mortar shell.

I pulled up my right hand, bit down on the middle finger of my glove and yanked it off. The hand was glowing with the gold lines of the activated phased particles permeating through the entire blood stream.

"Jesus christ, how long's it been like that?!?" Kim said

"I dunno, usually a few minutes after I phase." I sighed

"Answer the question!!!"

"A week." I admitted

"A week?!?"

"And I feel like shit so keep it down." I said laying my head on the table, feigning surrender.

"Tori, this is serious." Kim said putting a hand over my head

"..."

"Tori?"

____________________________

"Lets start continue with the left leg shall we?" the surgeon said

Not again, I was in agony, please not again.

"Engage the plasma field."
 
The door opened, he smiled and said,

"Hello beau-" he then looked down and said, "what the hell?"

Rico expected Celeste to open the door, it instead was a young pre-teen girl. He then said,

"I'm here for Celeste, she here?"

"Yeah, I'm her sister, Brianna, she is just upstairs getting ready,"

"Oh, okay, girls and their makeup..." Rico said jokingly,

"She doesn't wear any makeup, she refuses to, says it is bad for her skin, she uses an awful a lot of skin treatment stuff though,"

Rico then said surprised,

"I never would have expected,"

She then said,

"Yeah, not a lot of people do,"

She then turned around and yelled,

"Celeste, your boyfriend is here!"

Rico pretended not to hear that amazingly loud announcement, Celeste then shouted from upstairs,

"He is NOT my boyfriend, I told you already, he is just a friend, I'll be down there in a minute!"

"Thats what they all say!"

Brianna turned to him and said,

"Might as well come in, she is gonna take a while,"
 
"Aren't you gonna say it?" Adder said

"...?"

"I'm alright?" he asked

"No, I think, I'm a few miles past that point." I coughed out, silver blood

I was in the infirmary bed.

"I can't find a damn artery for the IV." the nurse said

"Sorry." I said,

I concentrated as hard as I could so that my arm would stabalize in our phase.

"There we go." she said after she finally punctured the vein.

"Just go to sleep." kim said

"No, you don't get it. I don't want to sleep." I said panicking

"BP is spiking" the nurse said

"Give him the tranquilizaer." the doctor said

"Stop" I said

"Relax" kim said
 
Okay, I got a story you are BOUND to find HILARIOUS:

So I was playing tennis at a nearby university and afterwards went to the science wing ( aka the closest cafeteria ) to get some pizza. That university is holding a Board of Governors election, so students are allowed to put campaign posters randomest shit up.

OKAY HERE IS THE GOOD PART

I SAW A POSTER THAT SAYS APERTURE LABORATORIES. It was a Portal related prank, and it was really well done :D It looked like a legit ad, no joke :D

It mentioned cake as reward, so I wrote on every single one I could find "THE CAKE IS A LIE"

:D
