Zaine took a seat on the pilots seat, yawning.
"Why do we have to go so early?" He asked.
"Because time won't wait until you are done with your hair." Annie said, cold.
"It takes really long time to get good hair, you know?" Zaine replied.
"You have a helmet on, why would you do your hair?" She replied again, cold.
Zaine let out a sigh. Yuudai and Joey took a seat too. When the door almost closed op somone holded the door open.
"What the- ?!" They all said as the man pushed the door back open.
"You almost forgot us..." The man said, next to him was someone else too.
One had a Shark battle armor, and three had black battle armor.
"We are Squad F-14, we are coming with you four to BattleShip Z-One." The man said in the shark armor.
Zaine looked to Annie, who nodded to him.
"...Sure, come on in." Zaine replied.
"All right, let's wait until Sherman gives us the sign-" "There is no need to..." One of the black armored soldiers said, as he stopped Zaine from talking.
"Sherman told us to tell you that you could go when we arrived." The man followed up.
"All right, let's go." Zaine said, as he started the engine.
Yuudai looked through the window, as he saw Sherman with four other people walk out the building. Suddenly they flied with lightspeed to the Battleship. Sherman waved at them.
"Hey, Wait up!" He shouted. But they were already gone, a group of other soldiers stood next to Sherman.
"They left... Why?..." Yamato asked.
"I don't know... The ENDF wil find out if we use the radio." Sherman replied.
"We'll have to wait... Let's hope they come back in one piece." A soldier next to him said.

The Outskirts of Battleship Z-One
06:45
Zaine lowered his engine, slowly floating underneath the Battleship, as he already heard gunshots around them, that means the Denim Rangers already have started. Zaine let out a sigh, as he closed his eyes for a moment.
"Okay, Let's Go!" He shouted as he boosted.
He boosted full speed and when he was at the border of the Batleship he made a half backflip, flying straight through the Gate. The gate was closing up behind them, as turrets appeared, firing at them.
"Well crap..." Zaine said, as he started to dodge the turrets.
The closing gates speeded up, but they made it last second into the place, calmly landing in a hidden place. Most of the ENDF were outside, holding out the Denim Rangers. There was always an huge difference between the ENDF and the rest of the factions, because Neohumans are rare to create and to find. It or takes too much resources or too much time to make. Zaine slowly opened his back door of his ship.
If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
"All right, now lets whats the plan?" Zaine asked.
"We have to get to the core, by giving it a Meltdown it will blow up, Win and well have to escape before that happens, too." Annie explained.
"All right, let's get right to it." The man in the shark armor said, looking at the other two.
They all started to run through the hallways, as they saw rooms growing bigger and bigger.

UGSF Airship HQ-01
Planet: Jupiter
07:30
Sherman slammed his fist onto the table.
"Why would they leave without my permission?!" He shouted.
Sherman was thinking, about what could happend, who was responsible for this. He looked at his Radio, should he call them, would it cause to much problems? Sherman shaked his head. Suddenly multiple people shot through the windows, killing the other soldiers around him. Sherman pushed the table, using it as cover. He grabbed his pistol from underneath the desk. Soldiers in black battle armor walked in. He quickly looked up, firing at them.
There were five in total, he shot two down with all the bullets he had in his clip. The soldiers slowly walked up. Suddenly he kicked the table their way, and jumped up. He slammed the pistol on one soldier, who dropped his pistol. He spinkicked the other one into the wall and turned to the last one. The last one fired his gun but he ducked, the soldier ended up killing his teammate. He then used the rifle and slammed it on his head.
The other soldier charged and Sherman threw the rifle onto his head, knocking them both down.
"Black Battle Armor... Hmm..." Sherman said, suddenly his eyes widened up.
"Could it be the one we lost..." He remembered what Yamato said.
It could be that he stole one, because he knows a way to clone them. Sherman quickly grabbed his radio but a click sound could be heard.
When he turned there was a man with two sniper rifles on his back, and a purple battle armor.
"You should drop the weapon and the radio..." He said to Sherman.
"...Before I have to kill you." He followed up.
Sherman slowly putted his hand up.
"...Fine." Sherman replied.
As he kicked his table into the air, then he kicked him onto the man. The other guards appeared too. he pushed the table off of him, looking around. He looked at where his sniper rifle laid, next to Sherman, infront of him were 5 guards and Sherman all the way on the back.
"Get him for me." Sherman said.
The guards charged to the man, the man grabbed two sticky grenades.
He slammed one sticky grenade onto one guard, kicking him off. The next guard started firing at him, but he dodged it as he punched him in the throat. He then spinkicked the guard into the wall, grabbing his shotgun mid air as the next one charged. He threw one sticky grenade to one of the guards on the back, and slammed the other guard into the ground with his shotgun. As the guard slided from the roof, the purple soldier jumped on him, sliding to Sherman and the last guard. He backflipped, jumping over the charging Guard and shotgunned him mid air while spinning.
When he looked up, Sherman pointed a pistol on his face. The man slowly stood up. The man suddenly kicked his pistol off his hand onto the ground, aiming his shotgun on his face. Suddenly Sherman kicked the pistol, hitting the man on his head with the pistol. He then kicked him into the wall, as the man dropped his shotgun. Sherman grabbed the pistol mid air and started firing his pistol. The man grabbed his knife and dodged the bullets.
"Oh this is getting exciting!" He shouted as he swung his knife.
Sherman blocked the knife with his pistol, slowly trying to aim it to his head. He pulled the trigger, hitting his shoulder. The man ignored the pain and uppercutted Sherman onto the roof. Sherman clinged landed his feet onto the roof and clinged on it, punching him from there. The man dropped his knife and started to fight with his fist too.
Suddenly Sherman unclinged his feet and spin kicked him away. Sherman grabbed the knife and the other man grabbed a new one. A lot of footsteps could be heard, more guards were coming.The man cut himself on his hand, looking at Sherman. He threw the blood on Sherman's helmet, covering his vision.
"What the- !?" Suddenly glass could be heard break.
Sherman took off his mask to look around, the man had escaped through the window and new troops came just from the entrance.
"Some of you help the wounded guards, the rest check the entire outpost, Now!" Sherman shouted as the guards entered.
When everyone went back to business Sherman looked at both of the snipers on the ground.
I wish I had killed you when I had the chance. Sherman thought.
He then looked at the radio, who had been broken by the bullets that got shot around...
