He was supposed to be off duty, supposed to be out of uniformâ€¦ supposed be heading for his date with Veronica! And now the Children decide to attack and force all pilots back to duty.<br/><br/>Because of this he was one of the last to launch because of the need to change into his flight suit and grab his helmet. He almost slammed his locker shut but stopped himself to not risk damaging the bottle he had put inside. <br/><br/>He ran out and jumped into his Orion, plugging himself into the mech. It was the main reason he didnâ€™t have an AI like the other pilots, he was the Orion essentially when connected. Also AI had a tendency to try and interfere with controls which just caused problems for a direct linked pilot such as himself.<br/><br/>â€œOrion, joining the battle,â€ Jared spoke over the coms before launching out into the empty void. Stabilizers and vectored thruster properly deploying to allow him almost perfect control in the weightless environment.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">â€œRoger, Orion. Be advised unknown craft is designated friendly.â€</span><br/><br/>â€œUnderstood, Unkown is friendly,â€ He checked his sensor to locate the unknown just be aware of its location but when he did he found some very wrong also in the local scansâ€¦ â€œBridge, youâ€™re getting this right? Are the Elyandraâ€™s even shields up?â€<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">â€Weâ€™re looking into it, Orion. Your priority right now is to deal with the remaining hostiles. The Hornet is in need of assistance.â€</span><br/><br/>â€œCopy, heading to assist,â€ Jared replied gunning the engines and readying his rifle.<br/><br/>The Orion closed distance fast and it wasnâ€™t long before he was in range though it was apparent the Hornet was having some difficulty. With the man-machine interface Jared and the Orion have it was barely a second for the weapons to lock. He opened fire, the first round hitting the kamiâ€™s engines sending it spiraling out of control. The next three punctured its core lighting up the emptiness of space with its demise. <br/><br/>â€œHornet youâ€™re clear. Head on back for repairs,â€ Jared sent on the comm. before checking the area for anymore dangers when something weird started up. â€œHey guys, Iâ€™m getting a lot of interference on my sensors. Anybody else seeing this?â€</div></blockquote>
