“I am glad you have a sports car, Nicole!” Aria said. “We are getting to the hangar so fast. Keep going!”
“Yeah, but I can’t believe Sukui has Moon Units.” Nicole said. “This will be my first time using my Moon Unit to fight terrorists.”
“Once we arrive, we should get into the Moon Units and quickly make our way to Sol High School.” Aria said in a desperate tone. “We have to save the students as soon as possible, especially Mei and Hajin!”
“Your sister and Oliver’s brother are there, so I understand why you and Oliver are desperate, but try to keep calm or else the mission might go sideways, and the students will be the ones to suffer.” Nicole said as she kept her high speed. “I hope Oliver also keeps his cool.”
“I hope so, I mean he and Yuri are sneaking inside the school right now, so she should be able to keep him calm.” Aria responded.
As Nicole and Aria approached the Sol City Military Base’s gate, it automatically opened for them, and they caught a glimpse of Yolanda inside the booth giving them a thumbs up. Nicole quickly parked her car in the first parking spot she found. Both women began to run at full speed towards the hangar and arrived within a minute. Sweat was dripping from all over their bodies. Their bodies became covered with Magical Energy and after a moment, the glow of the Magical Energy disappeared. Nicole was wearing a white armored bodysuit with a helmet, while Aria was wearing an orange bodysuit with a helmet. They quickly got into their Moon Units and began to fly towards Sol High School as fast as the Moon Units could take them.
Meanwhile, in the parking lot of the front entrance of the school, there were a dozen police cruisers and many police officers in body armor. Among the police officers, Roger and Jin-Woo were assessing the situation on how to best approach their attack.
“According to Oliver’s intel, the students are being held in the gym. He’ll be waiting, hiding at the library with Yuri for us to distract the terrorists so they can sneak into the gym.” Roger explained. “So, what do you think about just going from the front entrance with guns blazing?”
“The main problem are those two.” Jin-Woo said pointing at the terrorists’ Moon Units. “We are better off waiting for Aria and Nicole to show up with their Moon Units to fight, while we take care of the ones on the ground.”
“You’re right about that, but don't forget we have these.” Roger said, taking out his Elemental Gun. “You have seen firsthand how powerful they are. I bet if we get a shot at them, we can cause major damage.”
“You think we can hit those things from down here?” Jin-Woo asked.

“I believe so, otherwise I wouldn’t have brought it up.” Roger answered. “As the Commander of Platoon 12 I am aware of the limits of everyone in the platoon. If we damage them, it will be easier for Aria and Nicole to take them down.”
“Fine, let’s give it a go.” Jin-Woo as he prepared his Elemental Gun. “I am awaiting your orders.”
“Hello Commander Yee, I am Lieutenant Lee. What is your platoon’s plan of action?” Lieutenant Lee asked.
“We have two soldiers inside the school who sneaked into the library and found out the students are being held at the gym. We have two more soldiers heading this way with Moon Units. Jin-Woo and I will shoot at the terrorists’ Moon Units and then we can rush to confront the other terrorists.” Roger explained.
“I understand the plan but how are you going to hit the Moon Units? I don’t believe any of our guns can even reach them.” Lieutenant Lee asked.
“We have new weapons made by Ayano Hashimoto’s apprentice and we have used them before. I know for a fact they can reach long distances and are destructive.” Roger answered, “What does Sukui want?”
“Oh, Mrs. Hashimoto’s apprentice, so I have nothing to worry about with the weapons. As for Sukui, they are asking for money and materials.” Lieutenant Lee responded. “We want to keep the students safe. Since you have someone ready inside the school let’s go with your plan. We’ll start once you two shoot the Moon Units!”
“Then, we’ll begin preparations!” Roger said in a commanding tone. “Jin-Woo, let's use Electric Magic Stones.”
Roger and Jin-Woo took out a few Electric Magic Stones the size of a marble and loaded them into the Elemental Gun. They observed the movement of the Moon Units and after a few seconds they were able to predict the path the Moon Units were taking. Roger and Jin-Woo took aim at the spot they predicted their target would be. They pulled the trigger and an Electric Blast shot from the Elemental Gun at a speed breaking the sound barrier. In less than a second both Moon Units had been hit and a loud bang could be heard. The Moon Units entered free fall for a moment before they regained control. Roger, Jin-Woo, and the police officers quickly rushed into the school campus. Right as they were entering the campus, Aria and Nicole arrived in their Moon Units to face the Moon Units of the terrorists. The terrorist on the Moon Units engaged Aria and Nicole in air combat. Aria and Nicole used their Moon Units’ swords to slash at the terrorists. The terrorists quickly became overwhelmed as they had no equipped swords to their Moon Units and the woman had destroyed the guns their Moon Units were wielding. The terrorists’ Moon Units were quickly dealt with by Aria and Nicole, and they plummeted to the empty parking lot. Aria and Nicole landed their Moon Unit’s near the police patrols.
“That was easy.” Nicole said, looking at the display of her Moon Unit. Aria could be seen in the lower right corner as the communications had been turned on. “We made it on time. I am almost out of gas. How about you?”
“Same here. I think this is barely enough to go back to the hangar. We should have filled up yesterday or in the morning.” Aria said. “I hope the students are safe. And I must say the Elemental Guns are more powerful than I expected.”
“Imagine how powerful we would be if we had Elemental Guns for our Moon Units.” Nicole said with a smile. “Maybe Oliver can improve our Moon Units that way.”
“If he could solve our fuel issue, it would be plenty for me.” Aria said, looking at her phone. “I hope Oliver and Yuri get to the students with no issues.
Inside the campus, Roger and Jin-Woo rushed to the courtyard where some of the terrorists were and began shooting at them with their machine guns. While the police force took care of the other terrorists, Roger and Jin-Woo focused on trying to reach the gym. The terrorists in the courtyard were proving to be problematic, so Jin-Woo switched to his Elemental Gun. He loaded the Elemental Gun with Fire Magic Stones and in a quick succession he shot three times. The fire blast coming out of the Elemental Gun hit the terrorist and they began to burn. Roger quickly shot at them. Within a couple of seconds, the terrorists stopped moving. Jin-Woo stared at the bodies of the terrorists and extended his hand.
“It’s the same.” Jin-Woo whispered; his face full of confusion. “Then … does that mean …”
“Jin-Woo, is something wrong?” Roger was concerned.
“No, nothing.” Jin-Woo answered. “Let’s get going, we need to reach the gym. Yuri and Oliver might need assistance.”
