Armored Core: Dark Plus

Chapter 1: A Pilot's Folly

With a booster thrust the middle weight AC glided out of the way as

a machine gun spat out bullets at where it had just been standing,

the wall of the warehouse was soon lined with holes from the bullets

that easily ripped through it like it was swiss cheese.

Calmly the pilot of the AC raised its right arm and fired two rounds

from the WG-mk3-Karasawa Laser Rifle; they struck the weakly

armored MT in its awkward looking legs and chest, causing it to go

up in flames before exploding into a million pieces.

The AC was a middle weight class mecha with a sleak aerodynamic

form, its core looked like that of some kind of fighter jet and its head

was of a unquie design, a custom made part, it resembled a the

head of a hawk in most ways but was sleaker and seemed to grow

from the AC itself like it wasn't so much installed into it, but rather

scupltered from the core itself. Both the legs and arms were of middle

weight class and used little energy and were optermised for agility

while having a decent amoung of AP. The body of the AC was painted

light brown but was trimmed with silver. It was the AC known as the

Warhawk.

In its right arm it carried a Karasawa laser rifle and equipped into its

left arm was a laser sword that sprouted flashing blue white blade

that swished everytime it was released. It also carried one single

back weapon, another custom made part and the signature weapon

of the Warhawk. A twinlink chain gun with double the ammo of two

normal chain guns and increased stopping power. This was not to

mention all the other optinal parts that it buzzed with.

"Die RAVE!"

The pilot turned the AC and looked up, and there standing on a cat

walk was a slightly better MT, when compared to the ones that the

Raven had slaughtered. Missile pods on both shoulders opened up

on the MT and fired at the AC. Inside the ****pit the pilot smirked

as he pulled a trigger on the control sticks. Suddenly multiple lasers

fired from the sides of his shoulders and picked off each missile at

a safe distance.

The twin link chain unfolded and a second or two later there was a

beep that signaled the lock on had been established, the pilot

squeezed the trigger and a hail storm of bullets sailed through the air

and ripped into the MT, causing it to jerk back into the railing behind

it, which promptly gave away under the greater weight and fell to the

warehouse floor below and exploded.

The sound of a gate opening drew the pilot's attention to the entrance

of the warehouse and seconds later he saw three motorcycle MT's

racing towards him, with machine guns mounted on the 'head' of the

MT's firing at him. The pilot charged at the MT's, using the booster

to add extra speed to the AC. When it was close enough the pilot

activated the mecha's laser sword and wiexecuted three quick slashes.

Stopping at the other side of the MT's the pilot turned the laser sword

off and as he did, each of the Motorcycle MT's exploded in balls of fire.

"Now I've got you!!"

The AC turned around so quickly that it caught the MT that had seemingly

snuck up on it off guard and gave the pilot enough time to bring his

Karawasa around and fire a couple of rounds into it. The MT had been a

humanoid shape with machine gun and missile pods, but now it was

nothing more then a smoke hunk of junk.

"All too easy" the pilot said smugly as he turned the AC and started to

walk away.

"It's not over yet" the pilot stopped and searched for the source of the

voice and couldn't see anything, but then out of the shadows a beam

of white hot energy shot out and punched right through the AC's core in

a micro second, leaving a big gapping hole in the AC.

It stood there, seemingly frozen, then after what felt like hours the AC

collasped to the ground in a heap, all the systems except for life

surport and communications shut down and plunged the pilot into total

darkness.

Then an AC walked out of the shadows, it was at least four feet taller then

the Warhawk with was as tall as most AC's got, and it was bristling with all

kinds of weapons, too many. It should have been so heaviy that it shouldn't

havce been able to move, but it did. The monster AC was jet black all over

and the eyes of its AC Head glowed red.

"How?" the Raven stammered.

"Your not invincible" the other pilot spoke coldly.

The the monster AC walked away, the steps growing fainter and fainter as

the pilot reach down with his hand, only to pull it back a second later, it

was covered in blood that flowed freely from the wound, weakening the

pilot quickly, when he looked down, he saw that the hole was as big as a

basket ball.

He listened to the sounds around him, but the were growing fainter, along

with the noise of his life support system and heart beat, which was slowing

down with every beat. Defeatedly, the pilot slumped back into the pilot chair

and he took his final breath, then seconds later the sweet release of death

came and darkness took his mind.

* * *

Suddenly he shot awake in a hospital bed, his back aching upwards, but he

could not move his arms or legs for they were strapped to the bed rather

tightly, and a plastic was stuck down his throat helping him to breath, though

he didn't really need it now.

Then it suddenly dawned on him.

He was still alive.......

To Be Continued.

It seems a bit weird, but that's just me. But very good, but it kinda was missing a bit of a story. Then again, this is just the beginning.
