3 hours later, the entire White Eye fleet would arrive at Kobaji. The battle had already begun, and it seemed the White Eye members stationed in Kobaji weren't even prepared for this. It was almost a complete and utter wipeout. Outside the walls of Fortner City was made up of mostly dead land. However, there are several mining areas and small factories scattered around to serve as the main supplement line to Fortner City, back to White Eye. Factories were bursting into flames as several Nextellar Star Clan members were destroying any supplies they saw. On the fortunate behalf of White Eye though, Fortner City remained untouched for the time being. This meant that they still controlled about 95% of their reserves in Kobaji, while the remaining 5% was currently in the hands of Nextellar Star Clan. But if they wanted to push N.S.C back, they had to do it fast, as any ground patrol officers and stationed guards were being wiped out, leaving the entire area vulnerable and open to attack. Fortner City's military defense systems weren't the best either, so if Nextellar Star Clan was going to use their ships to bombard them, then Fortner City was as good as done. It was clear that the city had no air support at all... until now. White Eye ships started entering the thick atmosphere of Kobaji. On the front was the ship of Ghost Assassin and Thousand Leaves, and another high ranked ship that was stolen by none other than Ken Magami. Seriously, the fool he can be sometimes. [R]: "This is uhh- Captain Magami speaking... uhh... ABANDONING SHIP, OVER!" He spoke over the comms in his ship before ejecting, free-falling his way down to eliminate a few targets. Other high-ranked members murmured over who Ken was and what he did. Some didn't recognize him at all, but most didn't care. "Focus! Red Flock, fly to the left and exterminate any Nextellar on the ground. Use EMP blasts, or even missiles if you must." Megami spoke over the comms and gave any red striped ship the order and gave any blue striped ship to follow her. The Nextellar on the ground started firing back, as well as any additional Septo and Dark Intrinium soldiers. It wasn't just Nextellar, it was like they've brought the entire army with them. "Split up and fire your strongest missiles, don't destroy any remaining factories or resources, those are ours. We're gonna need those for this war." Megami Duvet ordered. "Roger!" Nextellar were very quick to dodge the missiles fired at them, but they were slow in getting back up. It was a perfect time for Blue Striped ships to fire their energy beams, taking out the targets. But before anyone knew it, there were more Nextellar on the ground than expected. Megami thought about it and realized that Nextellar aren't the ones that are actually attacking them, it was Septo Corp. and Dark Intrinium. She gritted her teeth. "They brought the whole camaraderie with them, huh? I should've expected as much..." [R]: "My lock on system is detecting someth-" One of the Blue Flock ships were hit by a torpedo and instantly exploded. "I-It came out of nowhere!!" "Look out!!" It was too late, another Blue Flock ship was destroyed by another torpedo, and another one. Megami Duvet was confused, wondering where these torpedoes were coming from. It wasn't the ships that were on her 6. It was something else, but what? Suddenly, another torpedo flew straight through the sky, destroying another ship. "Where are they coming from!?" She turned her ship around and faced the sky, but she still couldn't find the source. "Damnit! I'm picking up a dozen N.S.C ships on my six! I need backup!" She could hear the screams over the comms as other Blue Flock ships were being targeted by a dozen ships that were behind them. [R]: "I-I'm not sure we can-" Blue Flock 6 and 7 were wiped out. There were only 2 blue ships remaining, and about 15 red ships fighting the ground. A transport ship nearby would divert course, firing a few of their self-defense rockets at the N.S.C ships on
