"I can see that" chimed in Gano
"Well Gano, Treat this like a combat situation, just because they're debres, large or small, it doesn't matter these could all be Zeon aquatic MS if this was a real situation."
The U.K. - its been quite a safe haven for me ever sense I escaped New York.
It was always my idea to join the EFGF, being a Test Pilot was just an extension of that. However I may have romanticized the idea a bit, but will the difficultly change that? Never.
Its early in the Morning, October 2nd U.C. 0079 6:00AM UTC+0. The professor had me awaken to test her Guncannon. She was quite enthusiastic on how well I would do, Well.. it was showtime.
JABURIAN BUNKER, TIME: 5:30 UTC+0
"Mr.Gano, good morning."
"Good morning Madam professor, A new day huh?"
"Mr.Gano I would pleasantly like to inform you that despite me not holding a military rank you should still feel obligated to respect me as something of a...'Superior'."
"Yes, Madam Professor"
"Alright, you are to deploy at Jaburo Harbor in the Guncannon HDT, you're objective is simply to destroy several floating debris clusters all varying in size. To add challenge you have a fixed time of 10 minutes to destroy as many as possible. Do you accept the details of this operation?"
"Yes Madam Professor"
"Then you are dismissed, sortie immediately"
That is how this all started.
Professor Maya's Mediterranean accent cracked back over the radio, snapping my attention ahead of me:
"Pvt. Gano! Its time."
Attention quickly went to slowly easing my hand forward on the accelerator. The Guncannon slowly walked, easing closer to the edge of the harbor, I stopped roughly 8 feet from the edge of the polluted ocean. positioning my right hand to quickly pull up the targeting system, paying mind of the ammunition.
The first debris was in sight, it was a clump of old ship wreckage, I aimed with one ASROC and fired. The missile hit the closer target, blowing the wreckage to pieces. Two more, the next one was another mass of matter. I believed it to be another floating piece of metal and fired another ASROC at this new mass, hitting it and watchin it explode brilliantly on the sea water.
One last piece remained. It was far off and glittering for the benefit of a sniper. I had no idea what it could be, but knew an ASROC could not reach it and had to use the one round in the shoulder cannon, I aimed and began to sweat, doubting I would hit it.
I Slowly counted to 1. 5 I aimed, 4 brought the target into sight, 3 I saw the thing, shining brightly in the now rising sun. 2 I thought of the congratulations, skipping past one. The cannon fired deafeningly and speeded at the target, destroying it and sending its shards into the air.
It was a beautiful sight to behold.
