"Raven by any other name"

ICE WORM

NARRATOR POV

This was it. The day they had all been waiting for.

Walter:alright 621. This mission will be led by both Balem and Arquebes

The other names appeared on the screen. Present there was Snail, Michigan, Walter, Rusty, Carla and...Iguazu?

Snail:first some background. The intercorporate cease fire is now in effect and we shall engage PCA forces together. The targets are enemy occupied bases, the heavy warship fleet and the recently activated-

Michigan:cut to the chase. This is an all.out war against the PCA. And yall the ones that drew the unlucky straw. Hunting the beast of the Ice Fields

Iguazu:sure thing Chief. Tell ya what, I'll sit back and watch snd tell ya how it goes

Michigan:G5 you just volunteered yourself for the front line

Carla:moving on. Let's talk about how we're going to neutralise the ICE WORMS Coral Shield. You'll be dealing with a layered barrier comprised of a primary and secondary shield

Snail:Arquebes will provide the means to take out the first layer

Schematics for the weapon appeared on the screen.

Snail:the state of the art Stun-Needle launched. Aim for the face and it will deliver results...I assure you

Michigan:what about the second?

Carla:RaD's done that. Cooked up a little something we call the Overed Rail Cannon. If we divert the Spaceports standby power to the ORC it should hit hard enough. Assuming we land the shot

When it cane down to it, it was all about timing. In the end there were two clear choices...

Rusty:leave that to me. I know a thing or two about Sharpshooting

Raven:I'll deal with the first layer

Raven and Rusty would be the ones to land the shots.

Snail:I'll oversee Operations on the Ground. A ragtag group like this need leadership

Carla:I'll send chatty for some suppressive fire

That was it. They were ready.

Snail:I will send the launcher to your location. Try not to break it

The briefing cut.

Iris:that guy fucking sucks

Raven and Iris sat on a box in front of the Monitor. Iris had a data pad in front of her, typing some things in.

Iris:I got the Schematics...it won't be hard to fit, I'll need some help so-...

She looked up at him and noticed his eyes were closed. He was sleeping.

Iris:Raven...?

He was out cold. He had been up late alot, all the missions and he hadn't gotten much sleep. She hasn't seen him sleep in awhile. They had awhile before the launcher arrived. Iris' face then went red suddenly and she jumped.

Iris:this is my chance!

She ran off and came back with a blanket and wrapped it round them both. She say close to Raven and leaned on him.

Iris:now its cannon
