That Gatlandian shots slammed hard into the Wave Motion shields of both the Musashi, and the Belka. However the shields would hold for now, even if the crews were jarred a bit. Jeremy gripped his chair to prevent himself from being thrown as the might super dreadnought was jostled around like a Bath toy. A snarl curled at the corner of Jeremy's lips as he glared at the image of the Gatlantian pirate ship. They were not letting up, and he was hating that the UN's rules of engagement allowed the fight to escalate to this point. He would have rather came in with guns blazing. However, what was done, is done.<br/><br/>Robert's tactic of firing a spread of shots, along with the intense fire coming from the Belka boxed the Gatlantian ship in as two of their turrets were cored by an 8" beam from the Belka, and the makeshift Fighter hanger pods underneath the ship were burned off by the Musashi's massive 18" Shock cannon. On the Gatlantian warship, the crew were rocked violently from the hits, and yet they still didn't stop their Song of Death. If anything, they sang louder! They wanted the Universe to tremble at the might of the Gatlantians, and know that today a great battle was being waged. They wanted their ancestors to look down upon them and smile. So that when they do die, they will be welcomed with open arms in the great hollowed halls to feast for all eternity.<br/><br/>One of Prower-Graves shots seared along the aft hull of the ship, gouging a deep furrow in the hull right before a large explosion ripped through that second of the ship. On the bridge alarms were screaming for attention. "Captain, or primary inter-coolers have been destroyed! The engine is going to overheat, and go critical." The Engineer shouted. "Captain, we're losing power to our weapons systems." The Weapons officer called out. Soran snarled as she looked upon the image of the two warships she chose to fight. "It doesn't matter! ENGINES AHEAD FULL!" Soran roared before she thrust her Sword forward, pointing it directly at the Belka. "Make our Death Glorious!" She commanded.<br/><br/>The engine nacelle erupted to life as the Gatlantian ship turned its charred, and crippled bow towards the Crusier Belka. Quickly it was gaining speed as more, and more fire and smoke poured from the crippled ship. All on board knew what their fate was to be, and they welcomed it. Welcomed it with all the Zeal, and eagerness of true Gatlantians.<br/><br/>"Captain! The Gatlantians are on a collision course with the Belka!" The Sensor Officer called out, a hint of panic in her voice as everyone could hear the song that the enemy was singing. It was rather "Joyful". "Calm yourself, Lieutenant." Jeremy ordered before turning to his Chief tactical officer. "Mr. Prower-Graves. You've had your fun, but now I believe it is time we bring this to an end. Cleans<em>my</em>universe of these pirates." Jeremy calmly requested. The tone of his voice sounding bored with the whole manner.<br/><br/>For the fighters outside, all the remaining Gatlantian fighter broke off from engagement, and began their final suicidal dive at both the Musashi, and the Belka. Determined to aid their captain, and join their ancestors on the other side.<br/><br/><div align="center"><em>FOR THE EMPIRE! HAIL GATLANTIS!</em></div>
