A Sonar Confrontation *ask to join*

Recommended Posts

Lien-Da led her team into the forests without reluctance. She had every confidence the mission would go smoothly, with or without Freedom Fighter interference. A small part of her assumed they already knew of their plans, since their intelligence was good enough to land the Princess right into her fingers during a very secret meeting regarding the new weapon Dr. Robotnik was working on. Still, she wasn't sure if they knew of the current plan or not. It was always better to prepare for such outcomes, which is why Lien-Da brought some of the finest legionaries with her and Mynt, one of her generals.

 

The strong Echidna warrior with an iron glare walked in front of her. Lien-Da knew the woman's eyes were searching, scanning for any threat. Lien-Da was more than smug having such a powerful fighter on her side, at her command. The team walked into the forests, several of her legionaries carrying large heavy metallic devices that when planted in certain locations would detect certain things at great distances. It would be easy to pinpoint a village with a lot of "noise" like Knothole must have. Were the mission to succeed, the war would be won, Knothole would be located. That was why Lien-Da herself took charge of the task. The mission was too important to risk anyone else screwing things up.

 

The first sonar beacon was planted without any interruptions. Yet Lien-Da felt something was amiss. It was far too quiet and too easy. She noticed even Mynt seemed more on-edge than usual. They made their way to the second beacon location, deeper into the woods.

Swallowing down her raging heart stuck in her throat, the Princess breathed in deep to calm her nerves. Sally knew that to lead and to fight optimally she needed to be calm, no matter the circumstances. Knowing what she did about the Legion's plans was only part of what caused her so much anxiety. It was also the fact that Lien-Da herself was allegedly on this mission. What was to come was more than serious, it could mean life or death, that much was certain. Still she waited patiently hidden by the tree leaves to give the signal to commence the suriprise attack on the Legionaries. Her intelligence said they were on that direct route, it was only a matter of time before they would reach the strike zone. She only hoped her Freedom Fighters were ready.

Valen didn't like having to follow the orders of Lien Da but tolerated it in the end since he realized that the woman does have some leadership skills,was strong enough to fight her own battles and it was on the orders of man he owed a lot in Robotnik. Valen Harpler-Laymont enjoyed being outside despite his mobility being limited from the battles he been in but was grateful that the robotic enhancements on his legs help him moved.  His given orders was to assist in the placing of sonar bacons around the forest and advise the others were the sonars should be placed. He did scans of the forest with the use swatbots that created for him as bodyguards and his computer that was connected to his computer. 

He knew that the freedom fighters will attempt to stop the sonars from being place in the great forest. He had his swat bots scan the area around him for anything that wasn't a legion member, he ordered them not to move far away from him as he wasn't as good as a fighter as he new to be but had his cane with him just in case something were to happen to his bots.

Antoine wasn't thrilled in taking part in this mission to stop the sonar from being place but was less thrilled at the thought of the sonars locating their base if they were to fail the mission and can't stop the Legion from placing the sonars.  Hiding behind a tree with Princess Sally near him, Antoine had his saber in hand and was ready to attack on the princess's order but he felt unease about attacking the legion in the great forest. Normally a person feels more confident and better about taking someone on when there on their own territory but for Ant he wasn't. Maybe it was because he normally did missions and fought battles in the enemy home turf and not at the great forest.  While he worried about that a bit he was more worried about the other plan the Legion had.

Jeremy on the other hand couldn't wait to battle the Leigon members and was being impatient at the moment. Standing on a thick tree branch, he kept himself in checked, remembering why he was here in the first place reminding him that people are counting on him and the other freedom fighters.

Lilith wasn't happy, not in the slightest. First she was dragged away from her new friend by Mynt, who just so happened to somehow acquire her codes to The Box, as well as come in during one of her little special moments, which ended up revealing her secret that she had been keeping from the echidna. Now she was forced to venture into the forest which was the very last thing she ever wanted to do. She hated the forest, hated the very idea that she didn't know where anything in here was, let alone what would happen if she found herself stranded here.

The only thing she was thankful for, was the fact that she was thankfully kept in close near Mynt. Her current assignment was to ensure every bit of technology was running smoothly, and all Swatbots remained operational. 

"Alright Legionnaires, remember to keep one eye on your Swatbots. The Princess has a decoy one she uses to infiltrate, so if any of them start acting dysfunctional, glitchy, or anything you deem suspicious, radio me their serial number, I'll take care of it." Lilith felt a little on edge giving even a simple order like that so close to Lien-Da as well, but it was her job. Right now she held a tablet in her hand, displaying every Swatbot and their serial number. She knew exactly how many Swatbots there were, as well as which bots were supposed to be with them. There was no way she would let any Freedom Fighters wearing that suit, or any others if they had more, get near the beacons.

Eyes focused and nerves calm, Lien-Da slowed her walk to a stop with the rest of them following her lead. Turning back to face her legionaries, the powerful leader stared at Mynt and gestured toward the Northwest. "Take a squad and two beacons with you that direction. We're going to split up from here. If there is an ambush waiting, it won't do them any good to stop just one of us."

Nodding she understood, Mynt handpicked a few men to follow her. "Come, Lilith," she ordered, preferring to keep her personal pet close by and out of danger. Mynt took the others off in that direction, leaving Lien-Da with her own men to walk forward in a stead pace.

A distance forward, and a loud "NOW!" came from above them, with Princess Sally dropping down from a tree giving Lien-Da a boot to her back before she could react. As successful of an ambush it was, Lien-Da was expecting it. With a grunt as she hit the floor she twirled her body out of the way as the princess dropped another boot intended to land on her spine. Meanwhile chaos broke loose with a mob of Freedom Fighters attacking her legionaries, an all out brawl was going on around the two of them. It was Leader vs Leader, Lien-Da glared at the stuck up wannabe-princess and charged for her, swinging her whip to try to hit Sally before closing the distance. Sally was fast however, managing to dodge the whip without effort.

Valen was initially surprised at the sneak attack from the freedom fighters but quickly regain his composure. He wasn't going to let his years of experience go to waste because he was surprised from this as he been on the receiving end of this since his first battles and quickly retreated away from the action. He wanted to stay but knew he couldn't with his body not being what it used to be. Moving back he presses buttons on the controller to orders his Swatbots to attack and cover his retreat. The sounds of machines could be heard as the enhancers on Valen help him retreat while the Swatbots began to attack targeting Sally but one of were interpreted by Jeremy as he jumps from one of them from above. Causing it to stop in it tracks and focus on it. 

The other Swat Bots doesn't stop heading for Sally until Antoine comes in the way of the Swatbot. "If u wat ze princezz then you must go thought moi." He said fear starting to come in play with his saber out in front of the Swatbot.

Lilith followed close behind Mynt obediently, feeling the safest when right beside Mynt. However it wasn't long after that her ears picked up the fighting behind them. "Well, that didn't take long. We better hurry. I don't like the idea of having to stay out here for longer than I have to." Lilith was visibly nervous, completely out of her element here. Fidgeting with her scanner she determined that there was no false bots this time around, just a straight up sneak attack.

The battle was intense, Princess Sally focused on her surroundings as she backed off Lien-Da to deal with the lackies helping her. Lien-Da herself was busy fighting other freedom fighters, the all out brawl seemed to have no end in sight. Sally, in the corner of her eye noting Antoine having her back against the swabot, had to remember to thank him later.

As the Swatbot went for Antoine and was likely defeated, Lien-Da set her sights on the once-cowardly Freedom Fighter. "I've always wanted to gut you, you little weasel," she sneered at him, preparing to strike with her whip.

 

Meanwhile outside the battle, Mynt led Lilith further into the forest to their destination, a few swatbots with them as backup. The echidna was sorely dissapointed she didn't get to do any of the fighting, it sounded like fun. Glancing at Lilith as she walked, Mynt considered taking it out on her little plaything. Especially after seeing the girl cower as she did. "Do you know what I do to weaklings?" she asked, her eyes forward as they moved.

Suddenly a Legionnaire leap before Lien-Da. "Grandmaster watch out- ARGHH!" He collapsed on the ground a bullet wound in his back. There was no blood as the bullet hit cybernetics but wires were frayed and fizzling from the damage.

A ways away, lowering his rifle a wolf-human hybrid gave a slight frown; which wasn't much of a change of his seemingly eternal non-plused expression. "Terrific that was my last shot; so much for getting the commander." Axel sits up from his sniper perch; shouldering the rifle with the shoulder strap along its underside; he then slides down the hillside and rushes into the fray. Drawing his twin baton sticks and starts working his way through the fighting towards where the majority of his comrades were focusing their efforts. Eventually he zig-zagged along the outside of the battle to better assess how to get through the throngs of enemies; and in doing so he spied Mynt and Lilith in the distance with his eyes narrowing as he recalled the two from before; and what they did to Brianna. His gaze then shifted to Sally and Antoine feeling torn between backing them up or going after the two wenches who hurt his best friend.

If anything happened to the Princess because he couldn't have been of help; he wouldn't have forgiven himself- yet before he could move a Swatbot chasis collapsed near him; a still humming grenade in its grip.

"Crap!" He barely got out of the immediate blast radius; but the shock-wave carried him into the air literally throwing him with within two feet of the two enemies mercs.

While this was going on, Mighty the Armadillo was literally rushing Swatbots and Legionnaires like he was bulldozer, collecting and pushing them all back before he reared his fists back and then punched the closet two of the bunch which sent the whole pile flying all over the place. "N' don't forget to write!" He quips, dusting his hands off as he turns around to continue the fight. His eyes then catch the silhouette of Mynt and Lilith and catches Axel's flight by grenade shock-wave. "Hoo boy looks like soldier-rover might need my help." He mutters to himself before racing on over to see if he could help.

The sounds of constant hitting can be heard in a section of the fighting between the freedom fighters and the legion as Jeremy's whaling on the Swatbot he landed on earlier continues. The Swatbot moved around quickly in order to get Jeremy off him but the dog has a good grip on him and isn't showing any signs of letting go. A few more minutes and hits to the Swatbot later and Jeremy notices the Swatbot shows little damage done to it. He stops hitting the Swatbots in order to reassess the situation while the bot itself speed ups and heads toward a large tree. Understanding what the bot is about to do next, Jeremy releases his grip thus getting off the robot before it crashes into the tree. Down on the ground, Jeremy looks over to the bot to see it almost unharmed from the last action. 

"Ok..." Jeremy whispers to himself getting up Removing some of the dirt on him." This one is different from the others..." He then smiles. "Good.I like it this way." brawling his fist and going into a boxing stance he dashes over the Swatbot intending to finish the fight. "Hope you can give me an actual challenge!!!"

Still retreating from the battle behind him, Valen presses more buttons on his controller causing more Swatbots to come out and go into battle as backup. These ones are the regular normal Swatbots that are normally seen in the legion army. He felt grateful that he was given Swatbots from Robotnik after getting permission to do so. Now feeling safe, he stops retreating and looks at the fighting going on taking mental notes of the battles and observes each of the freedom fighters' fighting strategy in an attempt of coming up with the next plan of attack.

Meanwhile, Antoine was still focused on his fight against one Valen's personal Swatbots avoiding the attacks from the machine. Antoine quickly waits for the right moment and then a few seconds later does quick stabs to the robot. However, the damage does little to it. "Quelle.!?" Surprised at the outcome, Antoine moves back in a retreat and hides behind a tree but quickly moves out of the way from another attack from the Swatbot. Expecting another attack Antoine prepared to dodge again but sees the Swatbot's arm stuck in the tree.

Relieved, Ant takes a few deep breaths until he hears a sound. He tracks it to see Lien-Da looking at him. This doesn't take him long to figure out why. He was in trouble more than you think as he didn't want to fight a woman. His honor didn't allow it.

Lilith caught the tone directed at her with another shudder. "Oh i know all too well what you do to weaklings. And I'm not weak. Just uncomfortable being out of the city for too long." She tried to play it off a bit, but doubted Mynt would buy it. It was more to try and convince herself. 

It was quiet for a few more minutes before she spoke again. "Alright we're here. You, place the beacon there and I'll do the rest." She turned to the Swatbot carrying the beacon. 

It did as she ordered and she got to work setting it up. Each of these things required a little calibration. So she hoped no freedom fighters would happen upon them until it was completed.
