Lockon decided to pull back himself. As the crew retreated towards the city Lao, and Jason were still in the middle of their stalemate. There were few and far between remaining enemy zaku to deal with it would seem but there were still a few. [color=0072bc]"Yo guys James here Black Star is pushing the front lines. Enemy formation is failing. Enemy leader George Kyleson is reported to be pressuring their flank.

You're always the one who has to cause a problem!"[/color] Jason called out Lao who laughed heartily as he dodged the dragoon shots. [color=fff200]"Me?
