Guardian 113 had engaged pirates days before in her Swordfish II fighter. The problem was that a majority of them were either left alive or escaped due to a judgement call that the Guardian laid on someone else's shoulders, a mistake. Guardian 96 entered the zone at max speeds much faster than most corvettes and fighters of similar sizes. His ship was the Lady, it was slender and sleek and packed fire power that rivaled the HMS Colossus with a single shot. That firepower was limited to a single cannon and the power behind his body. His ship was an older model than the Saint but it was outfitted with a much more powerful booster engine at the sacrifice of the number of weapons systems it could use at one given time.
The Lady had been tracking the pirates for the last couple days now, it followed their phase stream a day after it had taken it and continued to track it from the debris the ships were leaving behind from being damaged. The biggest pay off was some of the ships were hit with the Saints missiles, of which some missiles are thought to be duds whereas they are trackers that plant themselves. They come one in each cluster so a Guardian can follow a ship that escapes and cut it out of the sky with its weapon systems. Unlike Guardian 113 who was rather inexperienced in space combat, Guardian 96 was a pro, he was known as Biggusurī, a nickname given to him for a pirate slaughter which first begin in space.
It was a pirate fleet, about thirty ships total, some heavily damaged from the battle days ago some in pristine condition. The ship that he noticed was about two kilometers in length with a giant skull crudely painted on the side of its hull, it had to be a capital ship, all these ships appeared to be of human origin, some repaired from fifty years ago, they were tethered ships of old days meaning their hulls wouldn't be ready for the kind of combat he was about to throw at them. The capital ship was the HMS Enjeru, over the last ten days it had destroyed a colony world beyond council reach and was a former EAF ship that was hijacked within the last five years. It didn't have the firepower the HMS Colossus did, but it was much bigger.
With no warning to the pirates the Lady moved in for its first kill, he wanted a warning to be given to them in blood and aimed for the carrier ship that was lightly defended, a ship that should of been put out of commission fifty years ago. The Devastator-class heavy plasma cannon came to life and fired within seconds, a feat he could do with the amount of power he could generate as a Data Mage. Instead of firing a steady beam a huge bolt of plasma smashed into the ship melting through the outer hull and out the back causing it to explode with in seconds.
The pirate ships began to scramble and every ship had been targeted from range, the Lady fired its payload of missiles, 30 total from the ports on the wings, the stationary missiles on the tips of the wings, and the ports on the bottom of the chassis. These missiles didn't even fly that far out before shattering into clusters of smaller missiles each ship taking a mouthful of explosions. The damaged ships crumbled under the might of these missiles, the others took moderate hull damage after losing shields. The largest ship didn't even notice the missiles as it continued to loom motionlessly in space.
He activated his com link relaying over the data network and all phase-com's through the area.
Cryptic as always, he closed coms and his ship veered hard banking from a lock on homing missile and bolted back for the formation of ships. The plasma cannon charged at long range and fired he banked his ship in mid fire cutting across the fleet delivering massive amounts of damage to the ships it hit. His ship bolted through the explosions of several other ships over heating and meeting their demise and banked on the flank of the fleet moving directly along its back he powered up what appeared to be a barrier around his ship but when he came in range of the large pirate capital ship the barrier exploded outward into an EMP.
The ships it hit were disabled and became easy targets for another cluster of missiles taking the numbers from twenty seven to twenty in a matter of seconds. His ship climbed the altitude of the larger ship until he made it above the ship and rolled over firing its cannon at extremely close ranges cutting a hole into the ship that he entered and attached himself to a wall. Guardian 96 exited his ship which was now safely tucked under the deck of the HMS Enjeru. His full armor was pressurized allowing him to walk in space easily, it wouldn't matter anyways, once he infiltrated the inner blast doors of the ship he would have atmosphere.

The broadcast was intercepted by the husk of the HMS Titan as it drifted toward the section as breakneck speeds. The warship began to slow the moment it entered the battle zone and upon seeing several frigates scattering it began a long range assault with Gauss rounds heading down long range as it moved in for the larger ship. Considering it was on the flank it had the perfect shot, a single Phase-Torpedo launched from over 30km away entered phase space and exited just a thousand meters from the target before impacting the ships engines disabling the ship completely.
"B҉ri̕ng us͞ ̛i̛n,̀ d͘e͢st͠ro̢y̛ ̡a̷ll̷ o̕t҉her͟ ͞t͞a̷rg̨e͟ts ̛in t̶h͠e ar͡ea̕, ̴I ̸want ̛t͏h̛a͞t p͢h̕a̕se̴-̢dr͠ive̴ ҉unít̵," said the dark lord, his voice gravely and projected by the metallic hue of his body. The HMS Titan moved in closer eradicating frigates with its superior firepower, the ship that looked like it should be out of commission haunted the battlefield drawing in close to the pirate ship and docked with it attaching its docking platform to the side of the ship. Caedas moved from the bridge, "Kill̸ ̵a̡ll̵ ͡w̧ho o͜p̷p͢òse͜ ͠the m͝i͞gh̴ţ of ͟thi̢s̴ s̶hi͘p,̸ ̴I w͠il̡l͞ r͜et̨ur̴n.̨"
He walked down the path of the docking unit took his saber from his side and cut a hole through the side of the opposing ships hull then disabled his saber and pushed the hull through the other side with raw kinetic force power killing those waiting on the other side. When he stepped through the hole there were a number of pirate forces were still alive despite the damage to the room. Each of them began firing and the saber came to life cutting down bullets and bolts of energy within seconds, he wasn't standing still though, he was moving fast around the room deflecting and cutting down projectiles and targets between each movement. The third to fall to his saber saw him deactivate it before falling in half. He turned around raising his hand and sent bullet and bolts of energy flying back at their targets killing them as well.
The ship was different than those he could recall, getting to an engine room could be the best way to find a phase drive that he could have transported over. He looked back to the slaves moving across the deck prepared to work at his whim and then moved slowly down the hall to where he believed the engine room would be located. |

He was instantly engaged by pirates when he got through the first pressurized door. Guardian 96 put a barrier between him and the bullets as he rushed through the hall toward the pirates they scattered when he came in range of them but the kinetic barrier shattered sending shards of energized glass across the room impaling the closest to the walls while the others took severe or minor damage leaving one two in fighting condition which he took care of with several slams of raw power crushing them into the floor leaving behind shattered bodies and gore that covered the floor.
The eastern side door opened and the guards began pouring in, he put a barrier between him and them and began a synchronized motion of tai chi every punch or kick sent shards from his barrier in the direction of the pirates hitting them or hitting the ground shattering into explosions of projectiles. What was left of his barrier he grasped and took a step forward twisting his body and turning the jagged barrier throwing it cutting several pirates into sections that got caught by it, the barrier got stuck in the far wall and exploded clearing the hall down that way.
Instinct told him that he should go in the direction of the numbers... |

Caedas heard shooting from down a ways not too far from where he was now. There was no doubt that the other entity that lead him here was close. There was no reason to engage yet, all he wanted was the phase-drive. He moved forward directing the force of his infiltration further into the ship toward where the shooting was coming from. There was plenty of pirates between him and the other man on the ship, it would be a while before they met face to face, for the moment he would torture the information of the phase-drive out of the next soldiers he came across. His slaves took up weapons from the fallen and he stood before a great blast door, he gathered the force in both hands and threw it out in front of him blowing the door apart and entered the next room.
The smoke from an engine fire was flooding this room, it told him he was very close to what he wanted the most. There were pirates trying to put out several fires that he caused each of them would meet their demise as his slaves opened fire shooting them several times, Caedas paid no mind to them he continued deeper into the ship and cut down another door on the other side was the burning engine he had destroyed.
"Th́e̴ ͡Ph̛a̵se̴-̸D͘rive͢ ̶s͠h͞ou͢l̡d ̛be ͏c̡l͢o͞s͝e.̶ ̕You̸ do ̵not̵ l̷eave̛ ţh͞is҉ sh̵ip u͜ńt̨i̵l͘ ͏y͠ou̷'̷ve̵ ͏r͜e̡co͢v̵e͘r̡e̢d ͡it. I will͠ ̷be̷ ͞greet́i̶n͜g t͟he͏ ̷on͏e ̷w̢h̛o ͢l̸e͘d u͡s̡ h͡ere̴.," he turned his back on them and followed the sounds of combat tailing the Guardian. |

Game on.The ship was exactly as it was when it was in EAF hands, the decks hadn't changed much aside from the stench of sweat and rape. Every inch of the place was covered in some kind of grime, it didn't help matters that he was adding to the grime with blood and the tears of his enemies. Nori headed down the hallway that he had thrown the barrier, smoke was starting to fill the room his HUD on his helmet helped identify targets with heat signatures. In his right hand he grasped it as if he was holding a sword, his power pulled together in his palm and extended out the top into a beam of light that was about 5 foot long from each end. The Guardian moved along the left wall low cutting down two guards who had barely noticed him through the haze, he moved into the opposite room where the smoke was thick. Nori kicked the lead leg from under the startled guard who spotted him first then decapitated him with a running swipe and engaged the rest of the room sending shards of energy across the room to the farther targets incapacitating them and then cut down the others with strategic movements to avoid getting hit by weapons fire, despite his armor being graded to be hit by most weapons, he knew all too well that he wasn't invincible. He looked up at the room which had the smoke vented from it by a blast door opening, the ones who weren't dead on the ground got sucked through the door or caught around the room as the void of space was introduced to the room. He turned around and rolled through the closing blast door, there was no reason to present himself to space and get locked out from the ship and have to waste time cutting another door down. The Guardian moved back the way he came from and then spotted Caedas who had been tailing him.

READY OR NOT I'M COMING
Caedas stepped into the room confronting the man face to face. He heard what the man said and lowered his head then grabbed the hilt of his saber. His slaves would be able to strip the components down to fix the hyperdrive on his own heavily damaged ship, the only reason Caedas decided to confront this man was to ensure that he didn't try and stop them, and to give them plenty of time. He had no ill intentions on killing him just because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Had Caedas never met the man he'd of still decimated the pirate fleet and stolen their hyper drive parts and never batted an eyelash, not that he had any left that was...
"N̨ame̷ you҉r̵se͝l̢f̕," Caedas said slowly moving to the right circling the Guardian. |

He moved left his back left hand gathered energy which could physically be seen as a grid of hexic shapes put together glowing bright blue. This raw energy could then be shifted into anything in a moment, now it was just a matter of what this abomination wanted with him. Either way, it was on board the ship, it had to die along with the rest of the pirate crew. That was when the pirates blocked one of the two exists in the room and began firing on them.
Nori instinctively knelt down and pulled up a barrier of energy to protect himself from oncoming fire.
