Who: Everyone
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Lato'li's orbit and also planetside.
When: Forward dated to 11/15.
[The Interceptor Fleet moves into position, waiting for the last few shield generators to fall. And in the early hours of the 15th, they do. The shield dissolves with a blip as if it was never there, leaving the man-eaters as prone as their prey. The Interceptors send out a transmission-- an unholy mix of Cockney and Australian that graces every available communicator-- if they answer it.]
We’re firin’! Do yer worst, Vieziri! We’re gonna kick yer sorry arses so hard you’ll kiss the moons!
[Five Interceptor ships swoop out of the dark and unload their various weaponry onto the Vieziri warships. At the same time, people stranded on the planet below ready the anti-aircraft guns onto their makers. And of course there is the Fleet itself, battered and yet beautiful across the velvet sky, as they fire everything they have.
Now the Vieziri start moving. Though the big red ship can’t do much maneuvering, the rest of the Vieziri warships certainly can. They fire back at the Interceptors and whoever else fires at them, willing to defend their leader and lose their lives in the process.
Luckily, the Interceptors have their own daring ships, which may look familiar to those who were here for the raider attack. One is emblazoned with racing stripes and flames all along the hull, and it moves so fast it nearly enters hyperspace. It’s there and gone in a flash, weaving past the enemy in crazy thrillseeking loops. Still another Interceptor ship is painted red and orange with a gold plate near the front, which reads BAMF with no explanation. This one has guns aplenty and easily weathers any duel it gets into. The third Interceptor ship is beautiful gold and black, sleek as hell and engineered with sense; this one packs the most gadgets and formidable guns of all calibers, and appears to do the most damage. Trailing behind is a much smaller ship, so nondescript it almost doesn’t stand out at all-- that is, until it forms a barrier to absorb some oncoming fire and reflect it back at the Vieziri.
There’s one ship that’s missing, though-- the one that was blown up several months ago after the heist. In its place is a small black ship that runs invisible to radar, sweeping past with silent speed as it lets loose a barrage of photon missiles onto the Vieziri flagship.
Down below, the Vieziri come out in full force-- one last stand before the warlord falls, trying to finish their fell rituals. Some of them rush the encampments, some go for the cities. Near the restored comms tower, a cloaked figure with a plain white mask fights their way through the onslaught using a plasma blade and a laser rifle.
After an hours-long siege, the big warship finally takes too much fire and breaks apart, lighting up the sky with falling shards like stars. The biggest debris burns up in orbit, but little pieces still rain down. It signals the end as the Vieziri begin to retreat both on ground and in the air. The loss of their leadership leaves them scattered and panicked.
The Fleet has won the day, but as the sun rises again over the wreckage, there is still plenty of work to be done.]
[ooc: Feel free to assume the Interceptors are helping your ships! The gold and black ship can be hailed and will give responses, as she’s been the main point of contact during this plot. You can also run into Zhade, though tags will be slow for both accounting for RL things. Please mark Zhade or Interceptors in the header of your toplevel if you’d like NPC interaction.
Any questions should be asked on the plot post for phase two.]

More pressing issues right now than that. After he casts Esuna, he casts Regen on them both.]
Dunno what materia is. [He holds up his left arm where his brand shines ominously through his jacket's fabric.] Part of this. Shitty gift.
no subject
Might be shitty but at least it's useful right now. [Cloud swings his sword up onto his back.] I need to get to the west side of the tower. Mind backing me up?
no subject
I never said it wasn't useful. It's come in handy a time or ten million since I got it.
[Man, that's a big sword. Are you overcompensating for something?]
What's on that side of the tower?
no subject
My friends.
no subject
Good answer. You lead the way. I'll provide cover.
[Sure, he could use Shiva Sisters, but that would be...unwise right now and there's a lot still left to do.]
no subject
Cloud is just gonna plunge right in then, hacking a couple of cannibals out of the way before continuing along a guarded path that circles the complex. Most of the fighting is at the entrances so it's not as difficult to get through here, but there's also no cover for whenever they get jumped, and having someone to watch his back so he doesn't get a knife in it is pretty nice.]
Hey, what's your name?
no subject
Well, it's the least he can do.]
Snow. [And since he doesn't want to have to constantly watch their backs while they're on the run to the other side of the tower, he throws up a wall of ice to cut off their pursuers.] You?

no subject
With your name? There are a million that I'm sure someone will make.
[Not him. Someone else will.]
No, no one to look for.
