Angel Wings Ch 42 'Of shadows & Hyugans'

That's GC Rally Vincent's automatic aove. Sorta looks like CB gal Faye Val's Glock 7, don't it?

ANGEL WINGS

DISCLAIMER: OK Kira Honey, it's all yours. First I wanna thank Mr T for the use of his Angels and stuff. Then I wanna thank everyone else who has been allowing us to use their creations here like Thom Beers for the use of his ice road truckers Hugh, Drew, Rick, Eric, Alex and Bear. I took the liberty of naming the 3WA academy in Furool City on Shimougou after Mr Haruka Takachiho in honour of his creations- the Angels. How was that, Yuri? Great, kiddo. Oh hai it sure was, Kei! Now since we left ya up in the air last time let's get to Ch 42 without any further meandering, shall we? Why is Zack Zero back and oro does he want with Suba Marina Oki? Can Mandy keep her big mouth shut? A hint re the titles- A play on the Queen of Haka Sutra in GTO and Whitey and Black got some 'splaining to do! Oro does this all mean? We'll find out momentarily gang. The Boss Red Marshall's on the warpath again! Here 'tis:-

CHAPTER 42

'The Queen of Supernovas' or 'The Guardians Explain'

Aboard the 'Paphael' Blue (Legato Bluesummers) trilled to Chief Gustav.

"Sir, I believe that a few lightyears is enough distance for now, don't you? What say we stop here and hover while we ait--" trilled the tall BetaZoid captain.

"Nai (No), we don not stop until we reach 'Minerva', Captain. That is our rendezvous point. Understood?" trilled Anton and Blue trilled a roger willco back to him.

So on they flew while their comrades' destiny drew ever nearer and nearer. Meanwhile aboard the 'LA2'--

"Thar she blows, Boss. Nor' Northwest on a 351.96 heading at nine o'clock. See it? That's our nova, folks. By the way, who's down in Engineering, Boss?" trilled Rally 'Cat' Vincent the scanning officer.

"Just 'Dynamo' and Cyborg as far as I know, 'Cat'." growled a perturbed Yuri Donovan.

"Balackfire's down there with 'em too." supplied Marlene Angel.

"Zoe! Get in here and help Nat, Flaysie and Caggie on these guns! I want you on one photon cannon and Caggie on the other one. When I tell ya to, fire 'em in front of us about 300,000 kilos- one to port and one to starboard. Set their proximity fuses so they'll blow when they hit the back end of this nova. 'Cat's gonna feed ya the coordinates. As soon as ya fire 'em, I want all of ya to get to a lifepod and launch it and you towards 'Minerva' and that means everyone, Vacuumhead! You guys hear that down in Engineering? 'Dynamo'? Cy? Blackfire? Get your ass up here to a lifepod or use one down there if ya can find 'em and launch on my order! Got it?" trilled the Boss.

"Yeah. We got it, Boss but oro (what) about you, Furball (Mugghi) and R2D2 (Nammo)? Oro (What) happens if you can't get to a lifepod in time? Oro (What) then Reds?" trilled Brigadier Mar.

"No sweat, kid. Jon left us a nice skysled down in the bays if we need it. I don't think we're gonna be needing it or a pod but ya never can tell, Brigadier Angel. We appreciate your concern, Mar but you are still leaving after these photons go, girl!" trilled the redhead.

"Good luck, you dimwitted dipstick and if you die on me, I'm gonna kill you, girl!" yelled Yuri and she released the steering controls to Kei who wrestled the gargantuan starship back to port and took dead aim at the cyclone that was howling through the nova's central core.

"Straight on till morning, eh?" she chuckled and twisted the craft almost sideways to the deafening maelstrom. She carefully yawed the ship back to centre and--

"Now dammit! Fire! (Both Zoe and Cagalli complied) Dammit to Hell, Caggie! That shot was full centimeter off target! Zoe! Good shot! That's your cue to skidoo, gang! Go! See ya on 'Minerva'! To the pods- stat!" roared Kei while she and Mugghi clawed their way through the nova's tornadolike winds until--

"Good luck, Reds. We've all launched and I'm the last one to go. See ya soon, Boss. Don't keep us waiting." trilled the commander-to-be of the 'LA3' and she jettisoned herself into deep space. Behind her the photons exploded and a huge backdraft fireball began in the core of the now supernova causing a tsunami (tidal wave) of roaring winds and flames. This whirlpool of destruction violently shook and then shoved the 'LA2' bacwards- back towards the spot where they had first entered the nova a few short minutes ago only now it was a fullblown supernova!

"As soon as we get outta this damned star trap, Furball, do a complete 180 about face and peel rubber after the others. Open her up and don't spare the hyperdrives, Mugghi because Nammo just predicted that the mother of all shockwaves is gonna be right on our asses so don't stop until we hit 'Minerva' and-- Christ Almighty! There's its maw (huge opening)! Take us home, Furball!" yelled Kei strapping herself and Nammo into a gunner's seat while Mugghi strapped herself into the pilot's seat.

The great white neko (cat) spun wildly, yawed back to starboard and then rocketed after KR's shuttle. Kei was hanging onto Nammo with both hands like all the demons of the nine Hells of Dante's Inferno were trying to yank him out of the redhead's strong arms. Finally with KR's 'Donnatella' shuttlecraft in sight and the supernova's shockwave fireball blast comfortably in their wake and at least ten lightyears behind them Mugghi eased back on the thrusters until their speed dropped back down to a manageable Subwarp eight and the Boss was able to relax.

Mugghi meowed a message to Blue who was just touching down on 'Minerva' with the 'Raphael' at that same exact moment.

"Yeah, I read ya loud and clear, Furball. The pods have already launched. OK then we'll just try and beam 'em all up into the shuttles. Yeah, I'll keep ya posted, pal. Blue out." trilled Bluesummers.

"Hey Anton! Get over to the beaming bays and standby with a team to beam up the Boss Lady's flight and engineering crews. Don (Poporo), start scanning for those pods. Nine of 'em just launched. The 'LA2' is following the 'Donnie' here to 'Minerva' so it looks like the fun's over for now, gang." he trilled.

"All over, Blue? Then how come we ain't lost anybody yet?" trilled Emma Emeraldas from the bridge of her 'Emerald Queen' starship.

"Hey! That's right, Poppet! I still got me a full contingent too now ya come to be a-mentionin' it. Anybody lose anybody, me hearties?" trilled her uncle, Jonathan Harlock from his 'Botany Bay 2' cruiser vessel.

When all of the other starcrafts replied in the negative Anton Wilhelm Gustav suggested a 'pwwow' after they all rendezvoused on 'Minerva' and the proposal was eagerly accepted by all the commanders.

"And we must be sure to ask 'God almighty' (Vito Galadriel) to join us as well. He's got some 'splaining (explaining a la Ricky Ricardo) to do, dammit! This mission was all his bright idea, wasn't it?" grumbled Dr Wolf von Bork.

"And our two 'Guardians' need to be in on this 'think tank', my tomos." said Doctor Six who was travelling with his TARDIS aboard Gene's 'Outlaw Star' and he helped himself to another chocolate biscotti. The foppish 'Gallifreyan' was having tea with Molly Callahan and Dominique the Cyclops in Starwind's wardroom.

"Are you sure you'll be finished stuffing yourself by then?" demanded a nettled Doctor 2 who was ferrying the 'Black Guardian' back to 'Minerva'.

"Yes, old boy. By all means do save some for us." added a grinning Doctor 4 who was giving the 'White Guardian' a lift.

The 'High Council of Gallifrey' and the 'Galactic Command' chiefs had decided that the two 'Universal Guardians' had best be on hand so they had sent the two time lords to pick them up and deliver them both to 'Minerva' so they could explain a few things about this latest fiasco of theirs.

By the following morning the remaining members of the 'flotilla' had made planetfall and touched down on 'Minerva's surface. The 'Lovely Angel 2' arrived at 1130 hours (11:30 AM) and all of the shuttles and most of the larger ships redocked inside her bays.

"Since it's almost chowtime we will convene in the rec room after lunch. Mugghi and Nammo are on bridge watch, however, the rest of ya will attend our shindig here at 1400 hours. That mens two o'clock, folks. There will be 'no' exceptions. Questions?" growled a very tired and quite frustrated not to mention angry redhead.

"The grinning fool (Doctor 4) and the little fellow (Doctor 2), Boss? They have the 'Guardians' aboard their TARDISes. Aren't we going to wait for them?" asked Doctor Six.

"They're right behind us, Doc. See? (Kei pointed a gloved thumb over her shoulder. She was seated at the rec room's bar and the two aoishi (blue) 'police boxes' were just materializing beside the bar area) Anything else? (No replies) Did we lose anybody? (Blue shook his head sadly) Not one solirary soul? Nobody at all? Christ! I just risked a state-of-the-arts starship not to mention Nammo's, mine, Mugghi's and my entire flight and engineering crews' lives playing 'chicken' with a supernova- and for oro (what)?! Nothing? Those two Fxxxing bubble-brained baka (stupid or dumb) idiotic moronic imbeciles had better have some answers or I will personally plaster the bulkheads with their Kami shimatta (God damned) asses!" yelled the redhead, her green aizu (eyes) flashing emerald fire.

"Pardon us, Madam. I believe we owe you fine folks an explanation, do we not?" said White.

"Even though it wasn't 'my' fault, Marshall." added Black.

"What! Not 'your' fault! Well, it certainly wasn't 'my' fault, was it?" argued White.

"I don't give a flying Fxxx whose damned bloody faulty it was! Dammit to Hell! One of you had better have some answers for us that I like- or else!" yelled Kei brandishing both Mark XIII ion cannons and aiming one at each 'Guardian'.

"You two are bloody lucky! I'm famished at the moment, guys! We'll reconvene here at 1400, that's two o'clock this afternoon, Whitey and you two bozos had better have a damned good reason why this 'solution' of yours didn't Fxxxing work, me boyos! OK. Let's all chow down. I'm starvin' to death dammit!" said the Red Marshall and she shoved open the dining hall doors and strode through them. The 'Guardians' decided that discretion was the better part of valour and took a table as far away from the firebrand Hellcat as they could get! Unfortunately for them, both the InuYasha gang and Lord Ivanhoe's crowd chose the same table and pretty soon Worlds War 159 had broken out!

"Kagome! He hit me again!", "InuYasha! Sit boy!", "OW! Dammit wench! He gave my ramen to that mangy furball wolf again!", "Miss Kira, would you do me the honour of bearing my children?", "Pervert monk! (Thwack!) Leave her alone! She's only a kid for Kami's (God's) sake!", "Oddo! Put that silverware right back where you found it!", "Wolf Boy! Stop hiding behind His Highness!", "Falco! I am covered with slop! Arrest everyone!", "But sire--", "Rin! Get off the table please!", "No 'kenjutsu' (swordfighting) in here you guys! Sess! InuYasha! Kouga! Ivy! Rebecca! Ayame! You all know better than that dammit!", Kikyo!! No archery is permitted in here!", "Naraku! Leave Sango alone! She is Miroku's woman!", "The Hell I am!", "Miroku! Don't you dare use that 'wind tunnel' in the dining room!", "Ah, would you sir! Lay on MacDuff and damned be he that first cries hold, enough!", "Kouga! Stop playing with my laser sword!" and like expletives were being bandied about when poor Ami (one of Moonie's sailor scouts) jetted over to take down their orders.

"Two brave souls huh? Nobody in their right minds sits anywhere near these cretins from Hell, me boyos. What can I get ya, gents?" asked Ami. She was wearing a magenta flightsuit and white repulsor lift jet boots.

"I always thought that you Terran maidens were more fashion conscious, my dear girl?" chided Black.

"Purple just is not your colour, my child. Might I suggest a lovely shade of green?" advised White.

" I don't wear skirts anymore because Kouga's got a leg fetish. The last time I wore jeans Oddo stole my belt and 'Doggie Boy' (InuYasha) there yanked my pants down! This damned flightsuit might not be fashionable but at least I can keep it on! Now what the devil do you wanna eat, boyos?" yelled an exasperated Ami. They gave her their orders and she jetted back to the galley.

"OK. Mako and Rei. You two lost the toss so you gotta take the food over to- them. Poor Mina and Moonie have to serve the 'Demon of Dublin' so count your lucky stars. These two smaller platters are for the old dudes next to Kouga. The one guy's a preacher and the other one tried to get me to join him on the dark side! Good luck." said Ami and she jetted off to take the Harlock pirates' orders.

Makoto jetted back over to the galley and she was sobbing again.

"Oro's (What's) wrong now, Honey?" asked Leila. She and Zoe were running the galley today with Granny (Pinato) Rockabell's assistance.

"This flight suit is stifling, Auntie Leila." whimpered little Makoto.

"So? Take the damned thing off then, kid." grumbled Zoe Morton.

"You do have sweats on underneath it, don't you, Love?" asked the jungle girl companion. Leila travelled with Doctor 4 on his TARDIS.

"I did- until Mr Mordor made 'em vanish! Now all I got on under here are my underthings! Then he tried to use magic to make my zipper come down so I ran back here!" blubbered the scout.

Zoe scowled and held her wet hands before the air dryer. "Oh he did, did he? Go and help Auntie Emma and Auntie Kome to set up chairs next door, Honey. I'll sort things out for you." she seethed and the angry Plutonian navvie stormed over to the 'bedlam' table. 'Crybaby' Prince John dove under the table and Jon Harlock whispered "All Hell's about to bust loose over there!" to Neko Olson.

"Hello there, Mordor. Listen up you lads and lassies. I want you to leave my scouts alone- or else! Got that?" she said hotly. Rebecca and Sango winked at each other.

"And oro (what) if we don't? Who's gonna stop us, girlie? You? I dare ya to try, bimbo!" challenged InuYasha. Zoe smiled and snapped her fingers.

"Sit boy!" she said sharply and the big inu hanyou (half human/half dog demon) crashed to the floor!
