Viral had to stop me just before I foolishly ran into the open battle field. Police Gunman flew over as while Enkigan and us remained on the ground.
"You can't just rush in there without any idea what you're up against!" Viral told me. I backed up a bit. (He didn't have to yell at me.)
"Fine." I crossed my arms inside of the cockpit I was in. Gurren Lagann did the same. "Then please, oh wise one, do tell me what we're fighting here."
"Listen, I know that you're excited to be piloting your own Gunman, that specific Gunman being Gurren Lagann and all, but you have to be patient. For all we know, they could be expecting us."
"True." I had to agree with him. My ambitions had taken over. If Viral hadn't stopped me, I probably would have gone in there like an idiot.
"What are we going against Viral?" Yoko asked.
"From what I saw on the way here, it looks like we're facing against a General Ship. But it looks like that, seeing how the enemy might be more powerful than what Yoko and I ever went against, what was remember as a General Ship might just be a scouting ship to them. On the ground are about five or six Mo-Shogun and a couple of Einzer. The General Ship is a Dai-Gunzan and it's parked on the other side, just above the south crater wall."
"Okay, I'm sorry." I interrupted. "But I am so lost. What in the hell is a Mo-Shogun? Or an Einzer? Or a Dai-Gunzan?"
Yoko smiled at me. "You'll see. Viral, what's the plan?"
"They're obviously here on someone's orders, so I say that we do what Kamina did." Enkigan formed a fist. "We take control of Dai-Gunzan and we find out where their main base is. Kamina City isn't the only establishment that's inhabited by humans, so they may have attacked other's as well."
Yoko started speaking. "So we're going to use the same plan that Kamina and Simon used when they took over Dai-Gunzan the first time."
"Exactly." Viral smiled. "If we take control of that ship, we'll have the resources that we need to take down this new enemy."
"Don't tell me." Yoko grinned. "We're gonna reform a new Team Dai-Gurren."
"Team Dai-What now?" I was confused.
"We'll explain later Inoichi." Viral answered me.
"You won't be explaining anything to anyone!" We looked up to see two Gunman standing on the room of the building next to us, towering over us. The two looked the same, with faces on their chest, complete with two white eyes outline with a thick purple border around them. Two long black arms stretched from the top of their single horned heads to the bottom of their stubby feet. They seemed to be wearing armor like Gurren Lagann, black armor covering the outside of their legs. The one on the left had its hands on its sides while the one on the right had its hands folded. They kinda remind me of tiny samurais, except without the swords.
"I'm guessing those are the Mo-Shogun." I stated. Viral nodded. I prepped Gurren Lagann ready for battle, preparing for an attack. Enkigann drew out a sword.
"What the hell are you anyway?" Viral shouted at them.
The Mo-Shogun on the left laughed. "That's for us to know!" He jumped high into the air, holding his fist high above his head as he came down for an attack. "And for you to die trying to find out-!"
Without any hesitation, Enkigann jumped up and sliced the Mo-Shogun in two. Both half exploded before they could even hit the ground as Enkigan landed on the building next to the other Mo-Shogun. He put his sword away, staring down the Mo-Shogun, which unfolded his arms and trying to look intimidating by clutching his fist and putting them up in a defensive state.
Enkigann reached down, grabbing Mo-Shogun by the head and lifting them up towards his faceless head. Mo-Shogun starting flailing its arms around, trying to land a hit on Enkigann. Enkigann didn't look phased in the least.
"You betta put me down before I call the captain on ya!" Mo-Shogun shouted.
Viral laughed. "What captain?"
"Our captain. And when he gets down here, y'all gonna be sorry you ever messed with us!"
"I'm positive that you are going to be the sorry ones." Enkigann grabbed hold of Mo-Shogun's stubby legs and pulled down on them, breaking Mo-Shogun in half. Wiring and bits of metal fell to the ground with its legs as Mo-Shogun's top half was left there lifeless. But what caught my attention the most was the squirming pair of...monkey legs (?) that had popped their way out of the bottom. Enkigann gave it a good shake and a the rest of the monkey man plopped into Enkigan's other hand. He was a skinning little fellow, wearing nothing but pants and a belt that hung loosely around his waist. His skin was a light tan color with dark brown fur ruffling up around his ankles, his elbows, and a mere puff from the top of his head.
The monkey man stood up as Viral began speaking.
"So tell me, why exactly you're here and why you're bothering our city."
The monkey man gave Enkigann the finger as he turned away and crossed his arms.
"I ain't tell you nothing!" He exclaimed. Even from all the way on the ground, I could already tell that Viral wasn't gonna take any of this crap.
And I was right. In that moment, Enkigann dropped the monkey onto the building's roof and drew out one of his sword. The tip of the slender black blade pointed towards the monkey man. My view of him was cut off at this point, but I could imagine how much fear one might fear if there's a giant sword being pointed towards you, ready to turn you into a furry shish kabab when ready.
"Let's try this again, shall we?" Viral ordered. "I'm gonna give you one chance and only one chance to tell me what I want to know or else I'm gonna turn you into a fur coat!"
I couldn't hear the monkey man's response, but from the way that Enkigann nodded his head a few times, I could tell that he was getting what he wanted.
After a minute, Enkigann jumped back down, sheathing his "He s and folding his arms. With a moment of silence passing by quickly, he started talking.
"He told me that he's part of a small squad of soldiers that came all the way out here to take over the land and eliminate the human race. They're only scouts though, meaning that the ship that they came in is only small compared to a possiblemuch bigger one."
"Anything else?" I asked.
"The ship is known as a Dai Gunzan Mach 2 assault ship." he continued. "He didn't tell me much, but from what I was told, it's a more upgraded version of the ship Dai-Gurren that you once had, am I right Yoko?"
"Of course you are." Yoko replied. "So, what's the plan then?"
"I say we go in there, kick all of their furry butts, take that ship for ourselves and make them run for the hills in only tears and pain!"
Enkigann held up to of his hands in uncertainty. "If only it was that easy. I was told that there's a captain aboard that ship who has a state of the art Gunman that he's not afraid to use against us.
I crossed my arms as I thought about the situation at hand. "So we're gonna have to take out the goons before we take out the leader. Then when we're done with that, we'll take down the leader and claim that ship as our own!" I couldn't help but clutch my fist in excitement.
I heard Yoko giggle a bit. "You sound just like Kamina." She stated softly. I could see her blush a bit in the video feed.
I pulled my goggles over my eyes, keeping my mane of black hair from blocking my vision.
"Let's do this!" I grabbed hold of both of the handles, clenching them between my hands. "Let's show these damn dirty apes just who they're messing with!" Yoko smiled just before the video feed cut off. The open view of our battle ground came into play. Just over those buildings is a complete party of animals in maxed out toy robots.
And I'm about to kick all their furry asses!
