Roleplay:The Sigma Wars - Battle of Giga City

This begins the first of the major battles for the pivotal location of Giga City throughout the Sigma Wars.

Chapter I
SIGMA PALACE

Sigma: (chuckles) Elpizo......I believe it's time....we underestimated Repliforce, but I think we should only the first of our Super-Weapon Predacons.

Ranch Ponica: Sigmeee~! They're ready.

Sigma: Good to hear, but stop calling me 'Sigmee'!

Elpizo: -ignores Ranch- I agree my lord, it is time we upped the anty... Speaking of, I must inform you that I need to be present in Giga City, our refining process is starting to go into full swing, I feel that I must supervise the mining our invaluable resource. There have also been reports of a certain pest you may know of...

Sigma: Epsilon....he won't give up, will he?

Elpizo: I question why he even tries, my lord. He failed in what he was trying to do. I will see to it that he sees his futile and dead quest for what it is.

Shockwave: Lord Sigma Prime, the Super-Weapons are here.

Sigma: Excellent. Bring them here....

(three new Predacons enter the room, looking stern)

Shockwave: I welcome into the fold, Atmos Cobalitron, Elizian Virginia, and Ground Terracrusher.

Sigma: (chuckles) Quite the incredible specimens if I do say so myself.

Atmos Cobalitron: Awaiting your orders, my liege....(bows)

Elpizo: Shockwave, you've outdone yourself, as expected.

Shockwave: I live to perfect my craft. After the failure that was Twilight Buttercup, I was disgraced.

Sigma: It was a slight miscalibration, Shockwave. No fault of yours.

Elpizo: Indeed, at least she has been dealt with and our sensitive information is safe. Back to the present, I recommend we begin to move our new warriors to the front lines, Repliforce has made a hard push as of late, but nothing that cannot be retaken with ease, especially if we implement these.

Sigma: Precisely. Since you are aware of the works down there, I will leave you to this, my loyal lieutenant.

Elpizo: My humble thanks, sire. Predacons, proceed to Docking Bay 3, a transport will await you and deliver you to the front. Once there, destroy all enemies...with prejudice.

Ground Terracrusher: YEAAAHH!!! (smirks)

Elpizo: Sigma Prime, my lord, I shall depart at once also. -walks off to the docking bays-

Sigma: Very well.....

A FEW DAYS LATER...

3:23am

REPLIFORCE MAIN OUTPOST

Colonel: -having a war council with the Commanders via video transmission- Commanders, I'd hate to disturb you from your work, but the time has come where we need to discuss larger campaigns.

Mattrex: A large campaign? At this point? Do you realize how much our ground forces have been losing?

Skiver: I'd have to agree, our air support has been the one reason we've had small victories.

Colonel: That's just it, we've achieved small victories so far, we haven't done anything significant since the recapture of the Abel Missile Base, we need to launch a major offensive before they counter attack with another one of their Predacon monstrosities.

Mattrex: -grumbles-

Magma Dragoon: Colonel, these Predacons are dangerous. One of them has smitten one of our own Maximals.

Slash Beast: Even if we do manage to push the offensive first, how do we manage to defeat monsters such as them?

Colonel: It appears our Maximals seem ineffective at this point... We may plan to release more, also, Mattrex, we need you to create some Anti-Predacon weaponry. For the immediate issue at hand, it may be best to avoid the front line at this point.

Skiver: Avoid it? What do you mean?

Magma Dragoon: Sir, with all due respect, that is insanity! How can we possible win if--?!

Frost Walrus: BAH!! That's blasphemy! You expect us to hide like cowards and not do jackscrap?!

Colonel: Cowardice was not part of the idea, Frost Walrus. For an ice user, you are the most hot-headed of us all. See Mattrex to account for your processor failure. In all seriousness, I am not saying retreat, I'm saying move. Our supplies and ammunition are limited, and there is one place that's a factory for such things. Commanders, I motion that we prepare for an assault deep within Maverick territory -- Giga City.

Skiver: That island...

Slash Beast: I thought that place had been liberated.

Colonel: I apologize for not informing you...but the previous conflict had an entirely different purpose than what we percieved it to be. It was a warning of Sigma's return, and I didn't believe it at the time.

Magma Dragoon: We should have listened.

Colonel: Now the Mavericks have that well of Supra-Force Metal, a well we need.

Slash Beast: So that's how they got the ability to make those bombs. The ones that destroyed the Maverick Hunters's base. They've thought of everything.

Frost Walrus: Afraid to say it, but you're right. We need to act fast and stop them before they possibly attempt to repeat Epsilon's ambitions....for real.

Slash Beast: Yes, but what can we do?

Colonel: That's why I'm suggesting we initiate an offensive on Giga City. It will force the enemy to divide their super weapons between defending their refineries and fighting on the front.

Skiver: It'll be difficult to get boots on the ground there, however.

Colonel: Indeed...

Slash Beast: So what do we do?

General: Using more Maximals is too suicidal. We intend to instead make use of what we have, and prepare for any surprises Sigma may have.

Colonel: That is why I am suggesting this offensive. Our best bet is an amphibious assault at night. Skiver, if you can mount those jammers onto your ships, that'd be most helpful.

Frost Walrus: Hmph. If you insist....

Colonel: If you'd like your unit to get some action, Commander, I suggest you show more enthusiasm. Can't keep it on ice forever.

Frost Walrus: That pun isn't funny, sir.

Mattrex: -stifling laughter- Um...well I thought it was funny...

General: All units, prepare operation at once.

(the commanders nod and salute, as they depart)

A FEW DAYS LATER.....

6:35 A.M. - OLYMPUS

Geneva: (working on some equations) Energon deffiency method L139Z, combined with the subpartson of Lyric's Law of Power Concentration equals to the division of G6 to 97B.....

Gravity Beetle: -walks up, looks over her work- Hmm...

Geneva: The difference in sedimentary rock ratio is 5.890 in the bynet scale to.....no, the richter scale with metamorphic rock....this seems harder than I thought.

Gravity Beetle: Did you factor in Vakin Converstion Property? 5.890 in bynet divided by the Vakin factor of 2.3 should result in the richter value.

Geneva: You're....you're right. And that should result in 2.5608 for the richter scale. Thank you, Beetle.

Gravity Beetle: You're welcome.

Zero: -walks up- Beetle, report. Been looking for you.

Gravity Beetle: Zero! Last I checked the ship is functioning properly, is something the matter?

Zero: We've been asked to take part in another battle. I'll make a shipwide announcement once I get to the bridge.

Gravity Beetle: Alright, I'll make sure we're ready for when the time comes.

Zero: -nods-

Geneva:.....Huh?

Gravity Beetle: Just a maintenance report, Geneva, don't worry about it.

Zero: -walks off-

Time Man: (walks in) Synthetic Force Metal....

Geneva: It's still being tested. I'm trying to get the hang of it. It's not like I can make up a force metal without a proper recipe....

Time Man: Take your time. War's not a place for beauty, anyway.

Geneva: (blush)

Time Man: (smiles and leaves)

Axl: (twirling his pistols) Any news?

Gravity Beetle: Zero's got some, but he's gonna tell everyone pretty soon. If you can catch him maybe he'll tell you what's going on.

Axl: (dashes forward)

X:....(standing in the control room, quiet)

Zero: -walks up- Oh no, I don't like that face.

X: I'm standing by what I believe in. If it can be prevented, I won't kill. But when Sigma is beaten, I know I won't have to do this again.

Geneva: (walks in with Time Man)

Axl: Any news, Zero?

Zero: Yeah, we got a fight on our hands.

X: How massive and where?

Zero: Ocean massive. -goes to sit down in the chair- So massive I'm making a shipwide announcement. -clicks on a few buttons and engages the intercom- Attention, this is Commander Zero, the Colonel has asked us to partake in a major offensive on Giga City. We are to join the air fleet in six hours. Make the necessary preparations. That is all, Zero out. -disengages intercom-

X: Giga City would be a major cue for Sigma. All that Force Metal and Supra-Force Metal being mined....

Nana: I'm detecting large feral energy signatures there too. Most likely those Predacons...

Zero: Perhaps Repliforce realizes that their Maximals may not be completely up to the task. Storm Eagle, all ahead full.

Storm Eagle: Roger.
