[story][Fenspace Alternates] The South Is Rising, Someone Get A Hammer

[Dakota]

Since most people seem to want a US only change. This is done with that in mind. This is set from Sabre's view point on board a whale king. http://zoids.wikia.com/wiki/Whale_King Note: his isn't armed and he's the only crew as I don't trust those crew numbers anyway. If this doesn't mesh then just ignore it, it was written at 3am.
Blackaeronaut: I'm just running with somethings said on IRC a few days ago with Ben having built the whale king. Sabre having signed a contract since he couldn't pay for it up front. This includes Ben being able to draft him with little notice to the Roughriders as a clause in case of emergences. This may mean that he's built zoids for Ben as well. I'll delete the whole thing if you aren't happy with that being used.

Couple of miles out in front of the westward bound whale king zoid known as the "Tyger, Tyger". A wall of clouds suddenly appeared, boiling with strange colors as they where studded with lighting. Sabre sighed as he checked another system on the Shadow Fox zoid he was building as a personal project. His head snapped up as his ears started twitching like mad as the Tyger's sensors screamed at him.
"HOLY HELL, what is going on?"
 Meshing quickly into the ship's systems as the autopilot aborted it's current flight plan and started it's first turn of a race track holding pattern. He gave a electronic nod at the autopilot. Letting it do it's thing as he accessed the external cameras as chaotic sensor reports flashed at him in his mind. The ship's cameras became his eyes as he looked out upon a literal wall of clouds stretching from horizon to horizon and down to the sea below.
What the fuck?
He thought as the wall of clouds stretched before him. He'd blink if he was still flesh as the clouds disappear as quickly as they had appeared.
Fuck I need to make sure the system is recorded this.
Not only had it, but it gotten the cloud wall forming as well. He reviewed the footage a few times before activating the comm system to upload it to the interwave youtube.fen site with the comment. "Holy hell, did anyone else see this!?" Before descending to 10,000 feet and opening up with the sensors.

He had picked up two contacts coming down from orbit earler, but had ignored them. Figuring they where doing the same thing as him. He continued to run sensor scans while slowly approach the coast. He detected a cluster surface contacts to the north of him. Five smaller contacts around a sixth larger one, of them steaming a northwest direction. Hm, he wasn't getting pinged by active radar nor was he detected any aircraft above the group. Shifting the Tyger into a intercept course and started to descend to 5,000 feet with a thought. Another activated the radio setting of the comms. While carefully uploading sensor reports to the interwave and linked to the youtube.fen posting.
"This is the fen spacecraft Tyger, Tyger to ships on a northwest heading, please respond."
Getting no response he jump to another radio frequency and repeated. Of course he didn't know that this was the TL-191 ship USS Remembrance and her escorts.
