Above them, the battle was slowly churning to a halt as the enemy capital ships began turning back to space and attempting to break the atmosphere, their support craft making their way back into their hangars as the Starwolf Assault Carrier continued to fire on them as they retreated. Then the streets, which still had enemy ground troops on them outside the alleyway were churned up by cannonfire from some new aircraft that ripped the concrete up as well as the enemy tanks and other vehicles while they dropped their own vehicles onto the pavement, while others landed. These were Mk. 46 Condor Gunships, they acted as heavy armor and troop transport as well as frontline support attack aircraft for the Starwolves’ ground forces.<br/><br/>The vehicles they’d deployed were the Starwolves Heavy Armored Cavalry, consisting of their Heavy Mk. XIV Ballistae MBTs and their XM3 Kara Javelin light tanks, all quite mobile and more heavily armed than the enemy counterparts. Once fully deployed, the tanks thundered off to clear the city of remaining hostile armor and troops, while the troops fanned out, one company and their gunship staying behind while the rest of the gunships took off in support of the tanks. The tanks, after clearing out the city, would set up concealed defensive positions with the assistance of their gunships for the next battle. Since the brass knew that there was already another buildup outside the system.<br/><br/>The troops from the gunship that’d stayed behind filed into the alleyway, forming up around Skylar and Mei as the medic gently took Skylar from her arms and began working to stabilize him, this took a few minutes, and then a pair of stretchers was brought from the gunship, while the medic’s accompanying field surgeon began working on Mei, and pulled the slugs from her wounds, and then jabbing her with some sort of regenerative stimulant after patching her up. Both Skylar and Mei were place on the stretchers, and hauled onto the gunship within ten minutes of their arrival, and the troops filed into the gunship with them as it took off and made it’s way to the Starwolf assault carrier, relaying that both She and Skylar were aboard, and to tell the Elysion not to worry about her, she’d be taken care of.<br/><br/>Mei’s thoughts would be fogged up and she’d have tunnel vision as a side effect of the stimulant, preventing her from properly making much sense of the next few hours, but she knew she was attended to by the vessel’s medical personnel upon arrival while Skylar was rushed into emergency surgery. She’d been aware enough on arrival to see just how much hardware had still been present inside the hangars of the assault carrier, dozens of gunships and fighters had still been scattered about, and with the ship still in combat, there were five times the number of people scurrying about performing repairs, loading munitions, and so on, and after that she’d end up coming in and out of consciousness, likely a side effect of her own battle stimulant mixing with their medic’s regen stimulant.<br/><br/>It would be almost seven hours later when Mei would be capable of coherent thought and clear vision again, ending with her laying on a bed in the ship’s sickbay, in nothing but her undergarments as one of the medical staff examined her hip and thigh, which were currently unbandaged, as the doc was bleeding them out to prevent infection. He wrapped them up a couple minutes later and then left without another word before a nurse came by with an unranked ship uniform for her to wear, and told her she was clear to leave sickbay, and that she’d been asked to head to the ship’s bridge, and that she would be lead there by someone waiting for her outside.
