EV/EVO Chronicles: Battle at Pokoren

On the bridge of the U.E.S. Killer, the captain stirred uneasily. "The Voinian fleet should have been here hours ago. Perhaps UE Intelligence isn't what its reputation is." Suddenly out the view port, a massive Voinian fleet appears. "Shields up!" orders the captain, "Launch fighters and tell the U.E.S. Razor to launch, too." Outside UE Fighters and Voinian Heavy Fighters launch. They soon become hopelessly intermingled in space and the scanner. "Sir, our forces have been cut in half!" exclaims a Lieutenant "Shall we retreat?" "No, we must stay to fight for what we believe in!" "You mean Saalian Brandy?" shouts an officer. "Yeah, that and coffee," jokes the captain. "Ensign, tell all ships to open fire with all their weapons on that." He points to a Voinian Cruiser to the far left. "Yes, sir!" The remaining UE ships open fire the Voinian Cruiser, the V.E.S. Blade Snatcher. Within seconds, the cruiser blows to bits, leaving only space debris. The crew goes bezerk.

Meanwhile, on a UE Fighter, with the pilot by the name of Falcon, the cruiser is nothing but a bright light. With 3 Voinian Heavy Fighters on his tail, he has to concentrate on flying. A UE Destroyer is trying to catch up with the Fighters to eliminate the Heavy Fighters. "I need help here," says Falcon. His comm. unit comes alive with the response from the destroyer, the U.E.S. California, "We'll be right there." Falcon hits the rudder hard left and accelerates, hoping to shake the Fighters, but to no avail. A Rocket streaks past to his left, missing by inches. "Hurry up, California, there are too many of them." He switches his comm. channel to the unit frequency to hear shouts of victory. "Five to lead, I need help. There are 3 Heavy Fighters on my tail." Suddenly another Heavy Fighter screams by. "Make that 4." He dives, and the Heavy Fighters pass him by. He gets on their tails, hoping to break them up. He is successful. They break 4 different directions, and Falcon stays on the leader. Opening up with his Blaze Cannons, he washes the Heavy Fighter with red Blaze fire. In about 3 seconds, the fighter is gone. In his fighter somewhere an alarm sounds. A Fighter is on his tail with a Rocket lock. He banks hard up and left, only to see a view of the U.E.S. California eliminating the Heavy Fighters. "Whew, thanks U.E.S. California."

On the bridge of the U.E.S. Killer, the battle did not look good. The Voinians were being driven back, but not without heavy losses to the UE. Inside the ship a klaxon sounded. "What is it?" yelled the captain over the noise. "Sir, we've lost our shields!" "Turn the klaxons off!" screamed the captain. The klaxons were silent a second later. "Engines, get us out of the battle now! Recall all Fighters!" Suddenly another klaxon sounded. "Sir, we're blowing up!" yelled shields. "Everyone to Escape Pods!" ordered the captain. Seconds later the ship's escape pods launched with the crew inside them. The captain, now at Engine control, set the ship on a course into the Voinian Fleet. He ran to his private escape pod, only to find it gone. The ship was going to blow with the captain on it! 5 4 3 2 1

In the battlefield, the UE forces were slowly pushing the Voinians back. With the demise of the U.E.S. Killer and its captain, the U.E.S. Razor was in charge. The captain there was a bright young man named DeadMan. He instantly took over, sending all 10 Fighters against one Voinian Frigate. The UE Destroyers were ordered to engage anything but cruisers. A few minutes later there were about 5 UE Fighters, 1 UE Destroyer, the U.E.S. Razor and 3 Voinian Cruisers. DeadMan ordered every group to attack one Cruiser.

When Falcon received the order to attack a Voinian Cruiser with the rest of his flight, he took charge. "Single file line everyone," said Falcon, "Begin strafing runs at will." In single file the fighters came one by one against the cruiser. The cruiser fired its neutrons turrets at the third fighter. The neutron fire disintegrated his hull, and Falcon saw the body vaporizing. With that he went into a shooting frenzy, hitting anything gray. With the rest of his squad now gone, it was up to him to disable the cruiser. He hit the cruiser with shot after shot of Blaze fire, without getting hit once. Falcon saw layer after layer of armor disappear on the cruiser, and eventually, he got it down to one layer. With one final shot he eliminated the cruiser, and had to dodge debris.

On the U.E.S. Razor, DeadMan took a look at the stats. 1 Voinian Cruiser, at 75% armor, one UE Fighter at 35% armor, and the U.E.S. Razor at 50% armor. "UE Fighter," said DeadMan, "please identify yourself." "I am UE Fighter 456-7342E, sir," responded Falcon. "Okay, come into our bay to get new weapons and to be repaired." "Yes, sir!" The Fighter flew perfectly into the bay of the U.E.S. Razor. "All right, boys, here's the plan," said DeadMan ,"our carrier isn't superior to the cruiser, but it is just as deadly. We have 3 hunter missiles left. We will fire them at the cruisers, while the UE Fighter keeps their rocket turrets busy. We will stay out of range of their weapons, pouring our blaze turrets into one of their sides. Eventually we should win."

In the U.E.S. Razor's bay, Falcon got a drink to calm him down. He heads back to his fighter to see the orders of "Keep the rocket turrets busy." He gets into his fighter, and launches right away. He flies straight towards the cruiser, getting fired at by every weapon on it. Side slipping left and right, Falcon saw the unprotected hull of the cruiser and fired on it with blaze cannons and his 2 rockets. In seconds the cruiser loses about 25% armor. The U.E.S. Razor moves in, firing its hunter and blaze weapons. The Voinian Cruiser decides to ignore Falcon, concentrating on the U.E.S. Razor. Falcon makes that a big mistake. He rolls over, and comes straight down on the bridge. He saw view material blast open, sucking the bridge crew into space. There was a slight break in the firing of weapons as control was transferred over. Falcon saw a rocket turret lined up for the shot at him, and it fired.

Meanwhile, on the U.E.S. Razor, DeadMan took advantage of the slight pause in fire. He fired the blaze turrets relentlessly at the hull of the cruiser, bringing it down to 25% armor. Then out the view port he saw the UE Fighter being hit. It was disabled. "Shoot!" yelled DeadMan. Now the cruiser concentrated on the U.E.S. Razor, but the U.E.S. Razor's blaze turrets out shot the neutron turrets, and the cruiser was down to 19% armor 17% 14% 10%, and finally it was disabled! The crew forgot who they were and went into the biggest celebration of their life. "Be still, crew!" yelled DeadMan over the mess, "Let's pick up the Fighter, and head to Baaka." The U.E.S. Razor did a long loop to pickup the fighter, and then jumped.

When they arrived on Outpost Alpha, the crew was commended. DeadMan was promoted to Commander, and was given charge of Outpost Alpha. Falcon was given command of the fighter group on the U.E.S. Razor, and was promoted to captain for bravery. DeadMan was informed that the U.E.S. Razor had sustained so much damage that it had been trashed. But a new class of warship was available and DeadMan could have one. He named it the U.E.S. Killer after the brave crew and captain of that ship.
