Mission Five: Conclusion

[voidtreckermods]

The Voidtreckers turn the tide, save the day. That isn't to say it is easy or straightforward, the battles are tough but together Red Team prevents the mega weapon getting through, orange team maintain shields, blue team fend off those trying to attack the command centre and purple fight the battle of their lives.

The system is safe and everyone who hasn't already evacuated back to the train using their SCA can gather on the space station again. There is a roar of noise as the Void Trecker Express appears in the hanger once more, noise and wind rushing through their hair it is no mystery why the army here reacted in shock at their initial arrival.

Hitrinto is there, as are many of those the void treckers have met in their week in this system. Here to thank them for their timely rescue and to wave them off.

The voidtreckers as well are reunited, the four teams back as one and it is time to re-board the Voidtrecker Express and move on to the next adventure!

Gladio chuckled and offered up an apologetic smile this time. "I try to be careful. A dead Shield can't really protect their King now can they?" He did try and protect himself as much as he did the others under his care. But sometimes it was hard to do. Sometimes things slipped through the cracks. Everything had happened so damn fast, their mission had bee riding on their defence of the control center. He knew that if he were to get hurt he could get healed later. He just hadn't realised how hurt he would get...

"I suppose not."

Then, after a beat. "You have a king?"

[callmegladio]

"That I do. He isn't here but..." Gladio gave a shrug of his good shoulder, and then immediately regretted it when it pulled at his bad one. He just about hid his wince but not the way his body automatically hunched toward the pained side. Damn but he needed to remember not to do that.

"... Noctis. He'd the current King of Lucis, where I was born. My family have been tasked with protecting the Kings of Lucis for years now. My dad was his dad's Shield, and now I'm Nocts."

"That's it? Your family serves his family forever, and you're fine with that?"

She saw that wince and looked just a bit worried about it.

Was it such a strange concept? Gladio gave his head a shake and was good enough not to get irritated by the questions. He'd had enough experience with this kind of grilling from Tony. "Surprisingly, yeah, I'm fine with it." He gave her a smile then. "Look... I know how it sounds. Your world sounds weird as hell to me too. But what I do, my job as Shield, it's a damn good one I take pride in. One my family takes pride in. Our Kings have been good people and worth protecting."
