Dino Jurassic squad: heroes of humanity

Chapter forty two: aftermath

Obsidian fury's chainsaws and Striker Eureka's sting blades pushed against one another and Obsidian fury then punched Striker in the face and activated the arm spikes and brought her arm back. However that's when Striker kicked the obsidian Chrome Jaeger suit off of him and it skidded backwards. However Striker then fired it's chest missiles knocking Obsidian fury over. "Simulation over." A robotic voice said and the city landscape disappeared.

"You almost got me that time." Ben said pulling Yasmina to her feet and she replied with.

"Yeah I did but you always somehow come up on top." The two then exited the simulation room and they went down to the med bay. Were their friends lay on the medical berths in comas.

Ben looked at Kenji who had bandages covering half of his face and a caste on his arm. Yasmina sat down next to Brooklynn's berth as she had multiple bandages covering her left forearm, upper chest, and right leg while a caste was on her right arm. "Do you think they'll wake up soon?" Yasmina asked and Ben didn't answer.

"Maybe." Is all Ben said as he looked at Darius' injured form that lay still on the medical berth. The two then left the medical bay and they returned their Jaeger suits to their hanger bays.

Ben then returned to his quarters and he took off his leather jacket and hung it up on a hanger and he flopped down onto his bed and fell asleep. In the morning ben walked down to the mark one hanger bays to see Jake sparing a punching bag using Coyote tango.

His movements were unpredictable but smooth. Jake looked like he had been using the mark one for years. "That's impressive." Ben said out loud and Coyote tango's conn pod turned to face him.

"What's impressive?" Jake asked and Ben stumbled with his words.

"That your so natural with that mark one." Ben finally said and Jake looked at the three fingered hand of Coyote tango and turned it into a fist. 

"Well I was the original pilot for it." Jake said and Ben's jaw nearly dropped. 

"You were?!" Ben asked and Jake just silently nodded. 

"I was also the first person to pilot a jaeger suit without a functioning AI, although the effects of the primoridal ooze I was exposed to was starting to make it's appearance, I was forced to retire from the program." Jake said and that's when he pulled out an empty AI chip. 

"I saw Coyote tango on Mantah corp's island, they were fixing it. But Kash tried to control the jaeger suits, it makes me wonder what would happen if you were still the pilot of the jaeger suit." Ben said thinking on how things would've gone different had Jake been there. 

"Well it would've been quite different then what actually happened to you six that's for sure." Jake said and Ben realized something.

"Wait your Coyote's permanent pilot aren't you?" Ben asked and Jake just nodded silently. "Wait who's going to pilot Tacid now?" Ben said and Jake just shrugged.

"Not sure but they're going to find a replacement for me soon." Jake said taking a guess and ben just nodded silently and left while Jake got out of the mark one jaeger suit. However Jake then grabbed the empty AI chip from the jaeger suit's hand. 

Jake then walked to the command Centre were marshal Richard Levine stood waiting for him. "Did you bring the AI chip?" The marshal asked and Jake held up the chip and the marshal then stepped aside to reveal a holographic blue female with hair that just barely touched her neck. "Jake may I introduce to you the new AI for Coyote tango, her name is Cortana." Richard said introducing the two to each other.

"Hi." Cortana said waving her hand to Jake and he just nodded slightly. After Jake had inserted the empty AI chip into the table Cortana was on and she went into the chip Jake walked down back to the mark one hanger bay. 

Soon all of the pilots and members of the shatterdome were present as Jake activated the armour and then lifted his arms quickly and then slammed his right fist into his left palm and then got into a fighting stance. "Cortana relax." Jake said knowing that the new AI was probably stressed out. 

"How could you tell I was stressing out?" Cortana asked and Jake just replied with.

"It's not my first time seeing an AI stress out. Just relax a bit, you'll overload your mind and go blank." Jake said and that's when Richard's voice came over the comm unit for Coyote.

"Alright Jake test out your weapons. But don't destroy anything." Richard said and Jake activated the mortars and they moved down to the firing position but then back to it's normal position. Jake then activated the plasma casters however after deactivating them he noticed a new weapon.

"Plasma axe? I don't recognize that weapon." Jake said and he then activated the weapon. A metal handle of an axe extended out from the jaeger suit's forearm and then the blades extended out from the center piece and were coated in plasma similar to Obsidian fury. 

After swinging the blade around a few times Jake deactivated the weapon however the sirens started to blare. An explosion echoed through the shatterdome as a pink and white drone jaeger jumped down into the main hanger bay with Brooklynn in it's right arm. 

Jake activated the plasma axe again and charged towards the drone jaeger. The drone then looked over at Jake then proceeded to run as fast as it could. The drone then jumped into an osprey helicopter and Jake skidded to a halt as the helicopter flew off. 

Jake fired his mortars at the osprey helicopter but the helicopter dodged the shots. Jake watched as the helicopter disappeared into the distance and he felt a tear run down his cheek.
