Chapter 268 The Clash of the Titans: Eddie Takes on a GIANT Gideon BattleShip!
"I understand, and I will be careful. I will also be sure to keep you safe, even if it means I have to make myself a much smaller target. I think I can manage this," Gaia said, and I nodded.
"Good, then let us begin," I said, and Gaia started to form a bond between us and the planet.
As soon as the bond was created, Gaia started to absorb the planet, and I could feel her rush to the core in my clone. Not even the Sun could affect my body now, so I wasn\'t worried about the planet\'s heat; it was the sheer volume of what Gaia was about to try and absorb.
As soon as she hit the core, the world started to shake around me, and massive cracks started to appear, but I could feel she wasn\'t even close to being done. The planet started to break apart; I quickly spread my body over the planet\'s surface like a massive net. Within a matter of minutes, thanks to the Great Red Eyes\' power, I had the planet in a net, clenching everything together, but this was much worse than I thought it would be.
\'How are things going down there?\' I sent it to Gaia, and she didn\'t reply at first, making me worry until she did.
\'Sorry... This is... A lot... Must focus... Need more time.\'
That meant I would have to hold on, but the question was, how long would I have to hold the planet like this? We had 9 hours left, and we still had the smaller planet of Mercury to do this too. Depending on how long this took, I might have to change my plans, but plans tended to fall apart when you hit the battlefield. Especially ones so farfetched, but if it works, I will have a serious advantage over the sisters.
After an hour, Venus seemed to calm down, and Gaia finally responded to me. I was slowly able to start retracting my body as she spoke in my mind.
\'I have control, but it is a lot. I will be able to get it ready, but it will take some, so I will need you to buy some for me. I suggest you take control of Mercury and hand it over to Dawn. The currents and the heat of this world feel almost like the rage of a dying planet, so I can only assume that Mercury will be worse,\' Gaia said, and I mentally nodded to her.
\'Good. I will head off to Mercury now and then to the Sun. I love you, and hold on until I get back,\' I said, and then headed towards Mercury with less than 8 hours until the sisters arrived.
[Eddie]
1 hour previous to this, Eddie was floating out in the open in his massive black mech, blasting Metallica, singing along, and with his microphone turned off at the request of literally everyone. Daniel was not what you would call an overly talented singer, and Eddie did not get any of those talents in the spit.
"Sleep with one eye open, gripping your pillow tight! Exit light! Enter night!" Eddie belted out, but his music suddenly turned down as red lights started to flash the image of a massive warship that appeared about 100,000km past the moon\'s dark side. Eddie flipped his comms back on, paused his track, and looked for his Fight Music playlist. "We got a booger on the moon\'s dark side, but the snot ball isn\'t moving. Platforms raise your shields but do not fire until I give the order. According to Mox, as despicable as the Gideons are, they are honorable, so if only one comes out, I will send a clone to meet with him. Do not accept radio communications from them, and block all signals they fire at you."
"Are you sure that we should wait? What if they just shoot us?" One of the Guardians asked, but Aiko was the one that spoke up on the coms
"Even an energy weapon shot from that far would take time to get here and would not be strong; projectiles would take even longer. You are ready to undock at a moment\'s notice and are under the orders of Admiral Eddie\'s command!" Aiko explained and switched to a private channel with Eddie and the other generals selected for the DEO, Defense of Earth Operation. "We have 8 ground cannons locked on, but we will lose one and gain two in fifteen minutes. Since we know the distance, we have some Daniel clones popping up strategically to build multi-weapon platforms and recharge stations."
"Good. They are staying quiet like the dead of the night," Eddie said as he zoomed in on the massive ship.
Eddie zoomed in on the Gideon\'s massive BattleShip and was immediately intimidated by its sheer size. Each weapon protruding from its hull held a potential for destruction, with hundreds of lasers, missiles, and energy cannons ready to launch at any moment. Its jagged edges glinted in the light, giving it an even more menacing appearance. Eddie could make out several figures moving inside the ship, which suggested a large crew was onboard. Suddenly, a black mech emerged from the ship\'s side, hovering over it like a guardian angel. The massive robot had various weapons attached to its body and seemed to be controlled remotely since there were no life signs from inside.
"Got a big fucking scary looking black booger on the radar coming out of that god awful looking ship covered in all sorts of fart cannons! Girls get the weapons hot, but keep your fingers off the trigger! I will send one of the Guardian Hulks from Sofia\'s platform to meet this thing, which will probably turn into a fight. Don\'t shoot!" Eddie said, and Sofia came on the radio.
"We are all not as dumb as you are, Admiral Eddie! I will load the Hulk up with a few special toys I want you to try, so don\'t die immediately. I need to know what should be put into production and what should be scrapped," General Sofia ordered, and Eddie groaned as he dropped into the Guardian Hulk.
