《バルキリー (Valkyrie)》Volume One | Chapter Four - Part Two
Advertisement
Streaks of green and blue littered the empty expanse of space as we know it the latter being railguns of the Federation, along with the continuous barrage of projectile missiles and laser cannons equipped to machinery upon the surface of spaceships. Within the bridge of one of the many Federation Cruisers, a Captain looked towards the screens giving regular updates on the current battle taking place.
"Captain, our left flank is faltering!" a bridge officer exclaimed.
"What!" the Captain replied in earnest. Not too long afterwards a screen appeared showing the current dire situation that their left flank was currently in. Many of their cruisers had smoke coming from the impacts of enemy fire, the others that were barely holding themselves together were attempting a retreat.
"Damn it!" the Captain slammed his fist upon of the armchair of his seat. We're outnumbered five to one here, we can't keep this up any longer he thought to himself.
"Incoming!" another bridge officer shouted jolting the Captain of his thoughts.
Suddenly a green laser beam struck the side of their Federation Cruiser ripping the ships armour from its place. Sirens rang throughout the ship along with bright red strobing lights flashing every second. The Captain looked to his left seeing the black smoke emanating from the ship of his ship.
"Decks four and five have been hit the vacuum pressure has risen in those areas!" the bridge officer informed his Captain.
"Seal off all exposed areas!" the Captain shouted back. The bridge officer nodded then looked to his monitor typing rapidly upon the keyboard before him inputting various into the system. A few moments later the blocks that were exposed to vacuum pressure were sealed off by reinforced doors it wasn't long after that various crew members arrived to search for survivors and get the fires under control.

Outside of the Federation Cruiser, the sounds of fighting continued as the Captain looked on thinking to himself how the hell they were going to survive this situation.
On the right flank of the defensive line between the Terran forces and Titan, a squadron of Mark V Valkyries was protecting a small sector of their defensive line. The Mark V Valkyries were mundane in design compared to their more unique Valkyries in their military.
They used a standard railgun cannon shaped like an oversized assault rifle, a reinforced shield attached upon the Valkyries' left arm and a holstered blade that would transform into a larger version of itself expending a superheated plasma along its sharpened blade.
"Shit there's no end to them!" one of the pilots of the Mark V Valkyries' exclaimed.
"Keep it together! Our objective is only to hold them off!" a voice came over the communications system inside the pilots' Valkyrie, the person being his squadron leader. The sounds of thunderous roars could be heard from the pilots' cockpit as he continued firing his railgun rifle at the Terrans.
The squadron was able to position themselves behind the debris of some wandering asteroids but this had little to no effect in having the advantage over the Terrans. The latter with what looked like crystallized humanoid machines closely resembled that of Valkyries albeit having the unique touch in cosmetic design compared to that of the Federations.
The Terrans own machines shone an eerily green hue as they made their descent down upon the lone Federation squadron before them.
"Above us!" another Federation pilot announced over their communications system. Suddenly a streak of green plasma beams rushed towards them impacting on multiple Federation Valkyries the sounds of blood-curdling screams could be heard.
The pilot who was conversing with his squadron leader jolted in surprise as a green plasma beam struck his railgun rifle missing the cockpit of his Valkyrie by mere inches. He looks upwards in his Valkyrie to see the enemy rushing towards him only barely getting his shield up in time.

He grunts as he's knocked back by such an incredible force, looking ahead of him he could see through his heads-up display that his shield was being encased by this foreign crystal-like material.
"Damn it!" Sweat was profusely running down his forehead and head as he closed his waiting for the inevitable end. When he suddenly heard the sound of railgun fire and the violent shaking of his Valkyrie. Opening his eyes he sees the Terran machine lifeless and unmoving in multiple pieces.
In the distance, he could see the glimpse of a dark blue Valkyrie. Its arms were wielding superheated plasma blades emitting an intense light blue hue, the legs didn't have feet like the Mark V Valkyries instead they were pointed and the Valkyries light blue generator was visible upon its back.
The dark blue Valkyrie rushed the Terrans impaling its superheated blades cleanly through the outer shell of their own machines.
The Terrans attempted to circle the Valkyrie but the pilot realised this spinning around, the machine front kicks the now inoperable Terran mech into one of its allies making a violent impact as the dark blue Valkyrie took incoming beams to the rear jolting it to the side.
The Terrans thinking they had destroyed the Valkyrie unwisely lower their guard at that precise moment the dark blue Valkyrie emerges from the smoke cloud this time smaller parts were detaching from its mainframe. These parts closely resembled the Valkyries armaments attached to its arms however albeit smaller.
With such precision, this drone-like weapon targeted the Terrans firing beams of their own or impaling themselves within the Terran machines.
While this, all unfolded the Federation pilots watched on in awe both marvelled and terrified at what they just witnessed before them. Without warning, once the dark blue Valkyrie finished dispatching the remaining Terrans in the area, the Valkyrie immediately headed towards where the fighting was concentrated.
The Federation pilots were surprised that on closer inspection of the Valkyrie, it seemed to closely resemble a more feminine design compared to their own robust Mark V Valkyries.
The Federation pilot from before watched as the dark blue Valkyrie veered off into the distance his hands slightly trembling at what he witnessed.
"W-What the hell just happened?" he whispered quietly to himself.
