Skull, a little shocked, "Eh...true.  Very true.  But our fight has just begun"

Skull flies around in a random manner, occasionaly teleporting.

"BOO!"

*Skull teleports on top of the Pyro-GX and blasts it with his stronges fire spell*

"Is it a little hot in here?"

"Yet you forget we're in space. No oxygen = no fire. No fire = no heat. DEFENSE SHROUD!"

Using the same piece of equipment that Minion had, a violent electrical storm surrounded the Pyro-GX and knocked Skull back and was flying backwards. Swift locked a couple IR missiles on Skull, then fired them with a kickass VWOOSH-VWOOSH sound, followed by a few Smart missiles and a Mega Missile for good measure, then a hail of Gauss Gun shells followed.

"Predictable as always, Ain't I?" Swift remarked.

"Indeed."


With a quick burst of electron blue, Skull teleports inside the cockpit of the Pyro-GX.

"Boo!"

BOOOM, BA-DOOM DOOOM!!!  The blasts of the missles collide with the side of the Pyro-GX, causing signifigant damage.

"Oh, did I do that?  KEK KEK KEK KEK KEK."

And with that final Kek, a cloud of green vapor left Skull's....mouth? and went up Swifts nose.  The smell was aweful.  It was like the stench of rotting flesh.  And with that, Swift began to feel both sick and sleepy.

"Good night, heh heh heh heh heh...."

In another flash of blue, Skull was outside the ship, where he planted a bomb under the hull.....

"Sleep tight...."

And pressed the arming mechanism.

"....don't let the bed bugs bite!"

Heh.... Swift thought. Am I THAT good of an actor?

Swift had not only withstood the stench of Skull's breath, but he had successfully pretended to be sick and sleepy, when in fact he was quite clear headed. Swift was not the MERE mortal.

Suddenly a 6-armed Exo Suit landed on the bottom of the Pyro-GX. Minion detached the bomb from the hull of the Pyro-XG, fired his retro's to Skull, attached the bomb to Skull's skull, all while being totally invisible so Skull didn't see.

Skull pressed the arming mechanism, unaware that the bomb was barely 2 milimeters from his head.

Beep...beep....beep....beep.....

"Something is beeping.  Oh wait, theres a bomb on my head."  Deativates the bomb.  "Silly me.  SO SWIFT, YOU THINK YOU'VE OUTSMARTED ME EH?"

Skull smaps his fingers.  The air is filled with silence.

"What?  Was that supposed to do something?  That's twice you've done that now."

"Oh, I think you'll be quite impressed.  Functional?  Nah, but impressive, heh, well, I guess I'll just have to see."

A strange creaking noise is heard inside of the Pyro-GX, followed by a slow grinding noise.  A bulk head pops open, and the entire Pyro-GX gets filled with water that is now gushing out of every panal and bulk head.  The entire vessel is filled to the brim with water is just mere seconds.

"And with that, I'll be on my merry little way."

Bloody fool. I didn't say I wasn't a MERE mortal for nothing!

For 10 more minutes Swift sat, submerged comepletely in water, while Minion sat atop the ship, conversing with Swift via Ralcom and morse code.

 :arrow: "You sure you'll be okay, sir?"

Swift tapped back: #Of course! I don't have 2 hours worth of internal oxygen for nothing. Damn, Tiger is great with these bionic oxygen tanks.....#

 :arrow: "Glad to hear it. Should I take care of Skull now?"

Swift nodded within his ship, aimed it to have a good angle and laid back.

Minion turned to Skull in his Grievous like Exo Suit and jumped off. He hurtled straight forward for Skull, then raised all six of his arms.

3 different types of beam, of ice, fire and lightning from 6 different hands burst forward and struck Skull iwth such power and ferocity that even his undead, invinceable soul was being shaken heavily. The combined elemental damage and the raw power rivaled that of the Power Cosmic.

Minion had Skull stunned. Skull couldn't move even if he wanted to, for his body was being torn apart at the seams. Minion had reached Skull with inertia alone, gripped Skull with one of his arms, then proceded to use the other 5 arms to use elementally charged punches at a super-fast rate. Every .03 seconds a punch hit Skull, each charged with either fire, ice or lightning.

Skull was effectively OWN3D.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!  
I SWEAR TO YOU THAT THIS ISN'T OVER!!!"

And with that, Skull's body was totally destroyed, leaving nothing behind but a shattered mess.

"I WILL RETURN....just not anytime soon.  I'm going to need a new body now.  Damn."

With Skull momentarily defeated, Minion used his retro's to fly back to the Pyro-GX.

 :arrow: "Now then, should we begin the repairs?"

Swift nodded inside his Pyro-GX and tapped: #Yep. We're all fien, but McQuarrie needs a serious overhaul.#

 :arrow: "I'll call in some repair droids from Oberon."

Swift nodded again. #You do that. Send-#

With that Swift stopped tapping and looked down, his face stricken with grief for a moment.

#I guess we can't send our main dropship and transport pilot, Kagemitsu......# Swift sighed underwater, effectively wasting 20 minutes of breath in one action. #Just... send Kary. She'll be safer away from McQuarrie, anyways.#

Minion nodded. :arrow: "Right. Can you fly back yourself?"

Swift gave Min an incredulous look. #What do you take me for, a sissy? A little water never stopped me before.#

Minion raised a couple arms. :arrow: "Hey, just askin to make sure." And with that Minion turned, jumped off the Pyro-GX and retro'd to McQuarrie while Swift stayed floating for a second.

He reminenced about the battle. he had taken on 3 different foes, all three with massive weapons with them, and he had fought them back nearly by himself. He knew he had suffered heavy damage, but looking back he couldn't see a single moment where he could have done better.

Swift gripped his twin control sticks and flew into the docking area within McQuarrie. He slid down slowly onto the ground, opened his cockpit and let the water drain out. He then flew up a couple feet and flipped upside down, completely emptying alll water within his ship.

He took a deep breath of the air of McQuarrie. He never really liked the unatural air in his bases that much, Charon's especcially. His favorite was the fresh breeze of the Albertan Praire best, since he had known that air since birth, and nothing could ever top it.

He flipped the Pyro-GX right side up and landed, jumped out and went to his office, where an unarmoured Minion stood by the desk.

"Ah, Min." Swift sat down in his chair with a jump, making the chair slide and spin a little. "How goes the repairs?"

 :arrow: "Kary is off in a transport, AX2-R model, to Oberon for repair droids and general supplies. She's taking two other ships, Te5-8's, along with her. Our outer core repairs are complete, but many floors are demolished, and as we know, the South side is nearly comepeltely destroyed. But, our Oxycarbon level is now at 68% and still rising, and the power level is currently at a constant 85-90% level, with a few more hours of direct sunlight to charge our battery stores."

Swift nodded. "I see. Good! Work on reinforcing the armouring of McQuarrie, then when Kary gets back we'll get to work on fixing the internal structure, starting with the West side. Save the South side for last, we can organize stuff here fine with me and you alone."

Minion nodded. "Alright then. What if Jehuty, Blackhawk or Skull return before we're ready?"

"Then we fight to the death, as we did before. Better keep your Exo Suit on, just in case Skull teleports in again. You seem to do best against him, anyways."

Minion nodded again. "Alright. I'll keep a couple Battalions outside your office door, and a few with me at all times."

Swift nodded this time. "Sounds good! Now then, get to work on fixing the armour, got it?"

Minion saluted. Swift said "At ease. It's just me, ya know."

Minion chuckled. "I know this bugs you. That's why I'm doing it."

Swift sighed, grinned, then picked Minion's small frame up, went tot he door, and threw him out of his office and on his feet. Minion trod away quickly and went to work.

Swift shut the door and turned to his desk. He ran up, jumped over it and landed ass-first in his chair, making it roll close to the large, wall sized window behind him. He stopped, leaned back and gazed out of the window.

The planet of Venus stormed below him, a huge swirl of grey and yellow. It was almost beautiful, the way it went on it's way, uncaring of what happened above it.

Meanwhile, back at the Team Disaster base....

"DAMMIT!!!  HOW COULD WE HAVE LOST?"  Said a pale bluish apparation.  "WE FOUGHT SOO HARD, YET WE LOST.  THERE MUST BE SOME WAY WE CAN STOP THEM."

"But they ruined my mech."

"And my nukes."

"YES, I KNOW.  AND THEY RUINED MY BODY.  NOW I CAN ONLY TALK IN UPPER CASE....*SIGH*  *AHEM*  ANYWAY, I'VE CONTACTED THREE OF MY FRIENDS FROM THE ETHEREAL PLANE, THEY MIGHT BE ABLT TO HELP, BUT I'M NOT SURE, WE'LL HAVE TO SEE."

"Don't tell me its THEM."

"Who?"

"Skull has these three henchmen, all of whom are totally insane.  One is a ghost, one is a mummy, and the other is just freaking nuts."

"YES, THAT WOULD BE GHOST, VORCANA, AND ALICE.  THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP, BUT, AS I SAID WE WILL HAVE TO SEE.  WE WILL MAKE SWIFT REGRET THE DAY HE MESSED WITH US!!!  KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEKEK!!!"

Still watching the Venusian storm, Swift saw a sudden image of Doctor Robotnick in his mind, and a simple message emblazoned in red.

Compared to talking to Trigger's sleeping habits, that image and message was nothing, however, and was easily shrugged off, even made him chuckle a little.

What was worse was the ultimate feeling of foreboding.

Swift knew that something huge was coming, something he had no clue as to how to counter against it.

Swift contacted Minion with his computer's Ralcomm connection. "Minion, prepare swiftly. My writers sense is tingling...."

Minion gave a very slight gasp.  :arrow: "Your.... writers sense? That means.... that-"

"Yes."

 :arrow: "So we should-"

"Yes."

 :arrow: "But how can we slice cheese with my Exo suit on?"

"Grr... I'd smack you upside the head right now if you were here. This is serious!"

 :arrow: "I know, I know. I'm just poking fun at a bad situation."

"Not a smart thing to do. Just get that special preperation ready! And how is Kary and those 3 transports doing?"

 :arrow: "We're unloading them now. We already sent the repair droids loose, and we're just unloading all the supplies needed."

"Excellent. As craptacular as this day has been, we will need everything we can get. Maybe we won't have to use that...."

"Maybe? Well, I hope not."

"Knowing them, we'll have to though. Just keep preparing, okay?"

 :arrow: "Okay." And the connection died.

Swift turned back to his window and stood, then strode to the window's edge. He gazed down and up, looking below him and seeing little droids zipping around on mini retro's, fixing McQuarrie with feverish economy.

Swift gave a massive sigh. His day had not been good, and he knew exactly what was making it as awful as it was. Strangely, it wasn't the battle, the Team Disaster vieing for his iminent demise, or not even memories of past comrades. It was something else, and it wasn't something he could readily fix, even with all his power.

Setting the memory aside, Swift sat back down and began once again to work on some new schematics he had in the making.

*Faraday fires several dozen copper-head* missles*

*Copper-head missles = missles that drill into enemy ship armor and explode.

What are you firing at, Pirate? Jehuty is beaten, Skull is indisposed, and Blackhawk is gone, and you'd be a right fool to challenge me after going traitor on me like you did.
