Mechanical War

-Prologue-

Dom POV ( Present )

It's been a few weeks since my last mission.

I was now home, working on something that could help me intercept and gain some information about the enemy...maybe even find their location...
My thoughts were interrupted by what sounded like something heavy and metallic crashing onto the ground. I quickly stood up and ran outside to check what happened.

Once I got outside, I checked all around the base and after a few seconds of running, I found the source of the alarming noise.
I was not expecting what I saw...

Dominic: "  FX ?! "

FX-3495,  A Ronin-Class Titan had just landed in my yard...and he had to land on the MRVN.  Why is my Titan at my place!?

FX: " My apologies Pilot, It seems I've landed on- "

The now crushed MRVN exploded. It didn't do much damage, just a small explosion.

FX: " -On something explosive. "

Dominic: " Yeah, no shit.  What are you doing here, FX? "

FX: " I was sent by the Militia. They were trying to communicate with you through coms but received no answers, And since  I was the only one who knew the location of this base, they sent me and a few others to give you information about your next mission. "

Dominic: " Huh? Why would the coms be jammed? ... ! Oh, yeah never mind. "

I might have butchered the communications while working on the interceptor...oops.

Dominic: " Alright! So...what's the mission about? "

FX: " An IMC facility has been discovered. I suggest that we discuss about this mission further once we get back to HQ. "

Dominic: " Okay...And how are we supposed to get back to HQ? "

Suddenly, the sound of an engine could be heard. I looked at the sky,  a dropship was flying towards our position, until it landed a few yards away from us. The doors then opened.

???: " Hey, Dom! It's been a while! " A guy yelled as the loud engines turned off.

Oh boy...it HAD to be them...

???: " Go pack your stuff, we gotta go asap! " another shouted.

Of all the Pilots They could've sent, it had to be Davis and Droz...
I ran back inside to get my equipment and gear.
I went into my room and started packing up.

I first picked up my armor and helmet to then put them on. I still had multiple things to take so I rushed to the closet and grabbed a few weapons. One of them being a Longbow-DMR, a semi-auto sniper, Followed by my V-47 Flatline, one of the best fully automatic assault rifles...in my opinion that is. I put both guns on my back before picking up a P2016, a precision semi-automatic pistol. 

I was about to leave the room when I realized I forgot about my Data knife. I started looking around in a rush, running around the place in hopes to find it. 

Dominic: " Where did I put this stupid knife!? "

FX: " I believe you left it on the living room table. "

Dominic: " WH-!?...ouch... " I tripped and fell, hitting the floor with a loud thud and the sound of my weapons colliding. Hearing FX so suddenly as this caught me off guard. I stood back up, looking at the window. FX was on the other side of it, staring at me and the inside of my place.

Dominic: " Don't do that again! " I said pointing at him.

FX: " Apologies, Pilot "

I sighed and turned to the table only to see my Data Knife on it. I walked in its direction to then take it and sheathe it in its sheathing. 

( Through Helmet ) Droz: " Hey, are you done packing? "

Dominic: " Uh...give me 5 more minutes! "

( Through Helmet ) Droz: " *sigh* Copy that! "

I stayed silent for a few moments before facepalming.  I had completely forgotten about my helmet. The coms were still up, I could've avoided all this if I hadn't left it in my room...

I was still missing a few things so I rushed back into the workshop where I would find my Jump-Kit and L-Shots.

( Ok, so an L-Shots is a syringe full of nutriments. Dominic as to take one every morning to keep his upper body alive. He lost half of his body, including his digestive system and much more. He can no longer eat nor drink, so to stay alive, Dominic has to inject himself the nutriments needed instead of eating.  Hope this explanation helps :) )

I adjusted the Jump-Kit and put a few shots in one of the many pouches of my suit.

I was now ready to leave.

I went outside and locked the doors. I started running towards the Dropship as a small carrier landed. I saw FX enter the carrier and take off. I continued running till I was in front of the ship and embarked. 

Davis: " All set? "

Dominic: " Yup! "

Droz: " Alright! Prepare yourselves, we're taking off! "

A/N: I Hope y'all enjoyed the Prologue cuz I know I did lmao. 

A few things before getting to the first chapter. I know Davis and Droz are no longer with the Militia but let's say they do in this story. I'm also sorry if this chapter seems to go too fast, I'll get better as the story goes :)
