*Huff* *Puff* *Huff* *Cough*
Running down the street, I make my way through a distant town from the Church as I return to my position after getting blown away by earlier. Due to my ability G-Rated, I escaped the fatal attack by getting blasted away in a comical manner. Although I did not land too far initially, G-Rated prevented violent splatters by converting them into harmless bounces which leads to my current predicament.
Having been baptised by our CAT Majesty, Sumeragi VI Tirtha, my body has become chubby with the fluffiest fur I have ever felt. As a result, I now find myself unable to make quick movements over long distances, as even my slowing running pace turns into a cool down walk.
As I damned my incapacity for cardiovascular activities, my pointy ears twitched with great ferocity as I listen to the sound of vehicles approaching from behind me around two kilometres away. Stopping to catch my breath, I ready myself for the likely foe that approaches.
When the vehicles came into sight, I recognised them to be Light Troop Transports using by the Alliance to move their soldiers over great distances over a short time. Spotting me as I gripped onto my Nyaa~calibur, they slow down and pull up at about 50 metres from me. To my surprise, CPT Kaiki alighted from the first transport and casually walks towards me.
"What is the meaning of this nyo. What are you doing in an enemy vehicle?" I queried as he closes in.
"Angel-kun. Why so tense? Rejoice! For the Alliance has fallen and these vehicles here are but the first of reinforcements from our side attacking from behind~"
"Is that so? I haven't heard anything about this from our CAT god." eyeing him cautiously.
"The enemy wouldn't let a person they consider to be a felon walk freely, now would they?" shrugging his shoulders.
"Your point is made." I replied before lowering my sword but not my guard. "Now let us go. Our god's sacred grounds has been compromised."
"Hold on a moment there, big guy. I'm afraid we're fully loaded so you are going to have to walk."
"Have some of your men disembark then. My return takes precedence."
Before he could reply, a female Alliance Officer gets off the vehicle and briskly walks over towards us. Looking at CPT Kaiki once more, he sighs as I draw my Nyaa~calibur.
"What is the meaning of THIS?! Have you betrayed his furriness expectations of you?"
"Hey now. The two of us had a mutual agreement to work together as long as our goals were aligned. He expects nothing more~"
"Kaiki. I always knew you couldn't be trusted."
"Tch. You have wasted enough of my time. Now be a good pussy and move aside so that we can do in that fool of a Cat."

"What did you say." were the only words I found myself capable of mumbling as I felt an uncontrollable anger burst out within me. Though my ability only changes to a varied form when something I cannot tolerate happens, I was surprised to find myself turning at the thought of Cat getting killed despite not doing so when my fight earlier ended in an indirect defeat.
As the last of my rational mind fades away, I watched as CPT Kaiki look at me in disgust before backing away in fear.
Awkwardly, my final vision was that of me hitting the floor after the female Alliance Officer disappears from my sight...

- Memory log 3: MAJ (CAT) Lurker -
Arriving in the lower levels of the Oppai statue, a company of CATs followed their commander and me as we walk to the Lower Guard Command Post. As we reach the stairs leading to the Command Post, SSG Lite walks down with great pace in order to receive us.
"Major. Lieutenant. I have more than enough fine men with me guarding the entrance to the higher levels. May I ask what is the purpose of your visit?"
"Staff Lite, it is precisely that you have fine men and are a great leader yourself that I'm reassigning you to guard the upper levels now."
"Excuse me? I believe I was directed by the General to hold this area and there hasn't been any reports of intrusion on the upper levels."
"Then you are not duly informed, Lite. The upper levels have been breached and the CAT god has been disturbed by human plebeians."
"Is that so. I apologise for my failure in letting some slip past, Sir. Allow me the chance to redeem my honour."
"That you have. Lead your men to the levels beneath the roof garden."
"But we will need some time to study the layout of the upper levels as we have never been there before."
"Don't worry. I will personally assist in setting up your manning of the upper levels. Also, have your men arm themselves with anti-air and close quarters gear."
"Sir. Not to question your command but anti-air equipment?"
"Yes. We believe the enemies might make it through by aerial means. Having your men use the anti-air weaponry to take them down before they do."
"Affirmative, Sir. Just one more thing. Is First Lieutenant Nyaadere to take over this position?"
"Well, he sure isn't here for show."
"If I may Sir, I recommend leaving some of my men here to assist in manning this position as they have been-"
"That won't be necessary, Lite. The upper levels need all our elite guards that we have." I reply before SSG Lite could finish.

"But-"
"Lieutenant Nyaadere here will assume this position as ordered and figure the rest out."
"Yes nyaa~ Now why don't you be on your way as commanded, Staff Lite." adds 1LT Nyaadere in an attempt to assure me of his competence.
"Yes Sir!" replies SSG Lite and he walks off heavily in subtle display of reluctance.
"Nyaadere. Try not to fail his furriness this time."
"Yes nyaa!" replies the CAT Officer.
Following SSG Lite as he moves out, I pray for the success in the following parts of our plan.

- Memory log 1: CPT Kaiki -
Reaching the outskirts of the large battlefield, there is the area before the gates of the Church. Our transports skilfully avoids the CATs' presence by driving inside through the wide crack on the hardened earth of the war zone.
Driving in deeper, I figured our luck was running thin as Alliance forces were hardly present with CAT forces in overwhelming numbers. As I fiddled with my Military Blade in contemplation of defecting once more, the lady officer assigned by Aiel puts her pistol at my head as if she was reading my mind.
Having not even the choice of thinking about the matter at this point, I suggest abandoning the transports in one of the nearby ruins of living quarters that was previously used as a town for the lowest ranking CATs.
Nodding in acceptance of my suggestion, I instruct our loli driver to head towards the nearest potential garage. As we got off the transports and made final preparations to join the battle, I could feel the aura of SC Simon permeating through the area, an indication of his Hercules mode working at top form.
After MAJ Yuno instructs the second squad of Kuuderes to split into groups to distract CAT forces, we set off with a small group of our own with CPT (CAT) Angel being rolled along on in cage. Completing a 15 minute three kilometres odd run, we closed in on our objective.
With two CAT mechas holding onto him, a CAT tank blasts away at Alliance Leader Simon. When the tank runs out of shells, the pompous man yells "Is that all you monsters got?" before breaking free by ripping the mechas' arms off. Making short work of the damaged mechas and tank, he turns his attention to us.
"Kaiki. I remember giving an order to have you confined as a war criminal till your court martial. Seems like you want me to personally send you off, don't you?"
"Please, mighty Simon. Even a dog has its day, much less a Cat. Besides, you never really thought you could lord over M-chan forever, now did you?"
"Time to put the animals in their place then. Come. I will take all of you on right now."
"Hold your blonde steed there. Let me introduce you to the sleeping beast here that we awakened just a while back just for you."
"A measly CAT. Even a handicap of having all of you at once won't make a difference, much less one of you."
"Oh...but you will find this...more than fulfilling." as I jabbed the sleeping CAT with a syringe of concentrated Catnip.
Back away quickly, we watched as CPT (CAT) Angel rose to his feet, changing his brown fur to a deep black as his body and sword slims down greatly in size. Opening his glistening red eyes, he focuses on SC Simon who emits his manly battle aura.
Leaping straight at him, the cage that contained him is cut up into many slices without him making so much as a visible move to cause that. Realising its power, SC Simon executes a punch just in time to ward off the first attack and the two immediately follows up with an exchange of light speed moves.
Before we could have the pleasure of watching the intense battle before us, gun fire from behind us catches my attention. Turning around, I spot the small group of Alliance soldiers that was the source. Taking down a CAT mecha, they head over towards our position.
"Look like some fighting is on its way. Isn't that right, Yuno-chan?"
"Time to do our share of work then. Ah, and if you call me that again, my dear Aiel won't have to hassle over your problem with any general~"
"Ohh...scary. Just the kind of thing that turns me on." I add as the group of soldiers reach us.
"Madam! Sir! 1LT Jonathan here. Next to me is 1LT Mark and behind are our Yanderes. We are here to back Leader Simon up."
"Ah yes. Well Lieutenant, as you can see the Supreme Commander over there is fighting against something we cannot hope to assist with. Besides, we are here to back him up in a different way."
"Pardon my crudeness, but what do you mean by that?" asks 1LT Mark.
"By what~?"
"Everything." as he raise his rifle.
"Haven't they taught you not to point that thing at friendlies?"
"All I remember is the order to have you sent back to HQ for imprisonment."
"Oh my. Looks like the gig is up then." raising my own tactical shotgun to aim at them.
Diving to the right as 1LT Mark took the first shot, I executed a barrel roll as I fired special electrical rounds at them, which would cause a lasting stun or not death for the faint hearted.
Pulling two yanderes back as he dodges, they successfully evade my attack as well. Looking at MAJ Yuno, she stares down coldly at me before giving the order to attack.
"Well well. This is gonna be fun."

8 56The Prince of the Sand
“Today you have to be the strongest man of all, son. After we deliver you, you will survive, and we will die.” When the Xalya Dungeon is about to fall under the attack of an alliance of savages, the last lord of the steppe entrusts his firstborn with a painful mission: Dashvara has to pass himself off as a member of an enemy clan, as a Shalussi, to exact revenge in a shameful way. Forced to see his people killed or enslaved, this heartbroken but still proud and humorous steppe man will soon be dragged in a surprising adventure that will shake his will and beliefs. This story follows Dashvara as he struggles through foreign lands and discovers that the world is not only made of deserts and horses but also of “civilized” societies with strong bureaucracy and slave-based systems. Author's note: The fantasy setting has some ancient Roman influences. Also, expect a bit of slice-of-life and comedy along Dashvara's philosophical journey. Despite the “gore” tag, violence is not the focus of this story and descriptions are not particularly gruesome. Updates Mondays and Fridays. This is a Creative Commons By work. It is a reworked and continued translation of a trilogy I wrote in Spanish between 2016 and 2018.
