[color=c0c0c0]“I’m still working on that,”[/color] Chris answered as he hovered over Lost Haven skyline. Directly above him was the alien mothership, threatening to wipe humanity off the face of the Earth. [color=c0c0c0]“Let’s start with not dying.”[/color] The first alien vessels to reach Lost Haven proper were small, sleek fighters. They zipped around the Lost Haven airwaves, like a swarm of ravenous flying insects. The attack on Lost Haven was swift and unforgiving. Whether the aliens’ well-placed energy weapons were meant to cause mass casualties or just confusion, whatever their plan was, it was working. Several of these vessels flew overhead as Iron Knight continued to evaluate the situation. One of these alien fighters broke off from its formation and doubled back. It fired off a green-white energy blast at one of the nearby buildings. Large chunks of rubble began to fall from the impact site, which threatened some civilians caught in the crosshairs. Iron Knight immediately rushed into action. He swooped down and positioned himself in between the rubble and the people below. Although he could not deal with the smaller fragments, Chris did manage to catch the largest piece and slow its descent, allowing the civilians ample time to escape from the rocky deathtrap. When the civilians had finally escaped and Chris had landed safely on the ground, he tossed the slab of mortar to the side. [code]Warning: incoming energy blast of dangerous levels [/code] Chris’ in-suit AI warned him of the attack that had a similar energy reading as the alien fighters were using. He immediately activated his armor’s protective energy shields to resist the attack. Despite being incased in the protective bubble, Chris could feel the power of the blast, as he even was pushed back a few feet. [b]“Guardians, we have troop carriers landing all over the city, we have to try and contain them before they can cause too much damage.”[/b] Icon relayed to the rest of the Guardians. [color=c0c0c0]“Yeh, I’ve met the welcoming committee.”[/color] Chris answered back as he looked to find his assailants. He discovered three human shaped Arlaaekans wearing some sort of advanced power suits. Each of them had their weapons locked on to Chris. [color=c0c0c0]“Alright, which one of you Syfy rejects shot at me? Now, don’t speak up all at once.”[/color] The three Arlaaekans traded confused glances after they heard what Chris had said. [color=c0c0c0]“Oh, come on! You guys don’t have a universal translator? Even those demons from a few months ago knew how to speak English!”[/color] At that very moment, one of the bulky troop transports slowly descended to the street. Once it had landed, a vertical door swung upon, like a drawbridge slamming down, and several Arlaaekan soldiers, equipped and armored in the same fashion as the three Chris had seen prior to the transport ship’s arrival. [color=c0c0c0]“Guys, we might wanna group up to hold back these aliens.”[/color]
