Captain Lockheart:
--Commodore Beckett--

Karl
"Captain!, lumberjacks out of ammo!."

Lockheart
"Blast, why didst we pack more?, our side guns wont do too much against those things..."

*Lockheart paces for a moment*

Lockheart
" right, were going to go low, line up out side. were gonna shoot with our rifles from the deck and i want one person on the mercury"

Karl
"I'll get on the mercury cap'n"

*the ship turns and gets its left side facing the remaining monsters. the ship lowers down and the crew start shooting with rifles at the enemy below*

Thraxius Meridius:
---Aboard the Commodore Beckett--

As the ship lowers Thrax nods, and immediately grabs a rifle from the armory.  He finds a target and takes aim but his rifle fails to fire.

Thrax
"(grunts) Damn it! Work damn you work!"

Lockheart sees this middle-aged drunken idiot fumble around.

Lockheart
"Damn it man! The safety is on!"

Thrax
"... I knew that!"

Karl
"(mumbles to himself) Idiot."

Thrax takes aim port-side and goes guns blazing on the abominations.

Thrax
"I haven't had a battle this good since I last talked to my wife! haha!"

Lockheart
"Just shut up and shoot! and shoot true with aim! We're running low on munitions"

Thrax
"Aye Aye!"

Just as it seemed that things couldn't get worse. Trax spots something amid the chaos. He lowers his rifle for a moment in awe.
He gulps with a grain of fear.

Thrax
"By the gods! What the hell is that thing?"

Through a cloud of smoke and rust, a large ominous shadow emerges from the shadows of the flames. A large beast, ten times bigger than the ones that they've seen so far. It was the Alpha, the seeming leader of the abominations.

Thrax
"...Umm excuse me!"

Lockheart
"WHAT IS IT??! STOP WASTING MY TIME!"

Thrax points to the direction of the large alpha beast.

Thrax
"Umm... I think I'm gonna need a bigger rifle for this one!" 

Skyraider:
--Above the M'Naghten--

Sky hasn't been lucky today yet. He couldn't see how many planes were behind him but one thing was sure, every time they shot one down two would replace it. Then Sky gets an idea.

Sky
"Everyone pull up into the vertical, NOW!"

Everyone does as he says, including the biplanes behind them. The bi-planes soon began to fall from the skies as their engines weren't as good as the one Sky installed into their planes, Sky calls out to Yiski over the radio.

Sky
"Yiski, if you can spare a moment, we have about 50 planes falling from the sky. Enjoy the free kills!"

Sky and the rest of the Flying Panthers flip over and dive on the falling planes.

Captain Lockheart:
--Commodore Beckett--

Lockheart
"Oh dear god..."

Thrax
"Yup"

Lockheart
" he's coming straight for us!, raise us now. use hydrogen."

* the ship lurched upward so fast that the men almost fell, Lockheart fell of the bridge of the ship and on the main deck*

Lockheart
" shit, my arm"

* he grabbed the radio and ordered a barrage from the Imperial Might the shots made a deafening sound as they hit, but the alpha surged through the clouds of smoke unscathed*

RearAdmiralZill:
-Then it was fixed-

Zill was tanking along, disabling the galleons along the southern flank. All the ramming was beginning to stress the hull, and he had to ease off. The engineers worked frantically with Jun leading them. Shink and PapaP took aim with the long Lumbers and greased rounds. The sheer amount of shots took down two galleons and a pyra.
Zill
"That's it!"

Shink
"Gun's overheated. Get me an engie!"

The pyra rammed into one of the galleons and took them both out. The other galleon recovered and fired flak. The explosions sent shrapnel into the decks, injuring two men. Zill cursed under his breath and took hold of his mercury. He quickly loaded a tungsten into the chamber and sniped out the helm of the enemy galleon. It started to spiral out of control with red smoke coming from the helm. 2 Squids came in and finished it off. Zill's radio blared.
Matty
"I'd say that counts as our kill."

Zill
"Flak. Do you see what I see?"

Zill was eying a transport ship ramming the main gates. It crash landed and 40 more soldier bolted out into the city.
Matty
"Looks like our chance to shred some birds."

Zill
"I'll tank this. You get over there now."

Jun'ko
"I don't know if we can take the damage admiral!"

Zill
"Make it!"

The order surprised Jun'ko, but she doubled her efforts along with the extra crew. 2 pyra's had closed in and started pelting the boat with firepower. Zill rammed one, and got one hwacha on the other. PapaP let loose some incendiary rounds to keep them busy.
