Miyoko Shadowborn<br/>in her mech<br/>In enemy compound.<br/><br/>Slowly she releases the death like grip on the controls, tears streaming down her sweaty face as she looks over to the commanders downed mech. "well.. so much for that" she sighs softly to the bears who must be suffering so with their thick furs in the furnace like cockpit, according to the readout two of her heat sinks are completely gone and quite a bit of armour is missing all over mostly in the back after she had to retreat under orders. Something she was smarting over still, to be told to ignore her commanders fallen body! Had the order come from another Kuritan she would be issuing a duel right now!!<br/><br/>As the bleep of the incoming coms signaled the expected chewing out she just flipped on the channel without a word, her eyebrows raising when he claims to even understand and doesnt yell her out. "Yes Sir! Wont happen again SIR!" she responds with some conviction not wanting to waste this rare reprieve. She turns the mech ignoring the howls of protest from the overheated reactor and walks towards her commander, fully expecting to find nothing but a red paste smeared over the cockpit.<br/><br/>"Erich, keep your guns at the bastard in the armor. Miyoko, keep yours on the Combines..."<br/><br/>"Yes Sir" she mumbles unable to hide the gratitude as her spirit soars, seems their first mission wasnt a total loss even if it was.. messy.  She turns towards her fellow countrymen and with a sigh levels the still glowing PPC against them hoping they dont realise her missile pod is empty and the threat of her lone gun isnt all that much against a group of infantry.
