"Jason, we've got incoming! Whatever happened just shook up a hive of monsters on the back of that thing," a female voice on the comms of the Gaia Sophia. "Crusher Cannon primed and ready to fire. Homing Missiles ready for deployment!"
"Keep the juice coming, GV! Let 'em have the missiles, Eve, I'm on manual targeting! Everyone, hang on!"
Gaia Sophia pivoted direction, the main cannon pointing into an incoming wave of winged gargoyle-like creatures that were heading their way. The main gun erupted into powerful blasts of energy, enhanced by the power of the planet and the radiant energy provided by Gunvolt. Doors flew open on the sides of the vehicle, and a spam of tiny homing missiles launched from small tubes, all rocketing toward those same monsters.
"There's even more of them coming from another direction! Get ready for contact!"
Another wave closed in, the screeching growing closer, threats of gnashing teeth and vorpal claws growing more real. But the roar of a very different engine soon eclipsed it.
"SkyKnight One, Fox Three, Fox Three. Closing on gun range."
A fresh barrage of missiles from another source flew into the cloud of enemies, exploding into shrapnel and rending the beasts asunder before they could get closer. Any survivors were then met with photon cannon blasts from a passing Rune Wing fighter, delivering precision shots as it sped by.
"SkyKnight One to all friendlies heading up to the giant lizard. Give 'em hell up there. I'll be keepin' the skies clean of any daemons looking to get in your way. Oh, and Iriclei, you be careful. Celia wants to hang out with you after all this is done."
As the Rune Wing flew past, it circled around, ready to defend the ascending members of Daybreak Academy. Gunvolt, for his part, intensified his Flashfield output to allow Gaia Sophia to keep up with the fresh speed buff provided to Iriceli by Therion below.
