Ichyson System (Yev Region)

Hammat

Ichomo stood in the cockpit of his Spider-class mech, held stationary by an IDF field that kept his body still no matter how the machine moved. Even if it got knocked over his body wouldn’t feel it, but his mind would, for it was linked to the machine as if it was his body, with his real one a hazy afterimage in the back of his mind.

Ichomo was walking his mech across a flat plane along with 4 stars of identical mechs, 20 in all, as they moved to reinforce a battle already taking place between other Bsidd mechs and several columns of Hjar’at. He fired his 4 Bra’hems from hard points on the body of his mech and not the moving legs, sending the green beams out to hit two of the Hjar’at from the flanks. It was a long range shot coming over more than 3 miles, but for the mech’s targeting systems it was an easy hit. With no terrain to hide behind it was virtually impossible to miss, which was why both the mechs and Hjar’at carried energy shields.

His Bra’hem hits were totally absorbed, weakening the shields but not penetrating them, and when the mechs beside him joined in and tried to target 3 specific Hjar’at, the V’kit’no’sat ranks altered suddenly. Different Hjar’at moved into the firing lines to take the shots while the ones with weakened shields rotated to the other side as those front in line began sprinting ahead and firing green Dre’mo’don orbs ahead at the already embattled mechs. Halfway there they flashed their clear Saroto’kanse’vam to life with the back spines glowing blue with a ferocious light.

Ichomo put some shots into them as his mech continued to cover ground at a rapid pace, but the spiders were nowhere near as fast as the biped madcats and ravens that were approaching from behind and gaining ground rapidly. They were from Clan Saber, but they were 2 miles further behind and wouldn’t get to the battle before the Bsidd reinforcements did…all the while the skies were full of aerial craft, with the V’kit’no’sat versions being manned exclusively by Zen’zat. They’d kept the landing craft further away, making the mechs walk/run the last part over ground, and it was allowing the Hjar’at to rip apart the leading elements of the engagement force.

The Bsidd watched as the sprinting Hjar’at stabbed their necks towards the ground right before coming into contact with the mechs, forcing them to do a somersault forward and into the other spiders. Fortunately half of them missed, for the spiders jumped sideways and lost a leg or two, but those that were caught in the body were gutted and the Hjar’at were tangled up in the mess as their energized blades tried to burn through the material. They thrashed, throwing molten armor and interior components around as short lived lava blurps, but eventually they freed themselves of the wrecked mess and got their footing again before looking for other targets.
