The sun shined brightly over the desert, as it seemed dull and lifeless. The sun's light was reflecting off of a mobile suit in the distance, whose form seemed to stand out somewhat to some of the plateaus spread around the area. A somewhat big canyon was also noticable from the distance, also.
Alright, Steel. Now's the time for you to back up your claim of how I'd get massacred, since there's, "no one here to save me."
The Dom Stratus raises up on both legs, as it brings its right arm around to the beam cannon to aid it's stability in it's left hand.
I'll be waiting...

The Dom Stratus raises up on both legs, as it brings its right arm around to the beam cannon to aid it's stability in it's left hand.I'll be waiting... Over a distant sand dune, a very large truck with catapiller tracks comes over the dune. The driver of the truck was obviously Steel, and of course, anyone would realise that large object on the back of the truck was one of Steel's MS.
He soon stopped the truck, cutting off the engine before opening the door, and jumping out of the air conditioned cabin.
Feeling the heat of the sun almost immidiatly, he climbed up onto the back of the truck before clambering (sp?) over the MS' arm and torso. When he reached the cockpit hatch, he pressed a button on the side, opening the hatch.
Steel now jumped inside the cockpit, fastening the harness straps to the center buckle before powering up the mobile suit.
Once the mobile suit was powered up, with the constant humming confirming this, he started the suit getting off the truck. The torso slowly rose upwards, with assistance from some thrusters. Meanwhile, the left leg moved across onto the sand, and the suit stood up tall.
Bazooka shouldered over the right shoulder, shield mounted on the left forearm, and the 100mm Machinegun stored in the shield, not forgetting all the other usual armaments.
The chromed V shined in the bright sun, and then the eyes flashed. This obviously indicated that this was the Defiance Gundam."Right then... that's everything set, time to go seek my foe..." Steel said out loud as he engaged the hoverjets, racing off down the dune, heading towards the distant Dom.EDIT: OOC: I'm using the atmospheric core fighter, the one without the UPBs.

The monoeye of the Dom Stratus glows a deep, dark red color before the hoverjets kick in. The Dom Stratus lifts the beam bazooka into a ready position, and just takes a random shot in the direction of the Defiance. The Stratus leans to the left and begins an arcing movement towards it's target.

Steel just pulls gently on the controls, sending the Defiance into a 'slide' to the right as he heads forwards towards Libra. This had the beam wizz by, and just hit the sand, vaporising the sandy area it struck."Come now. Is that all you have?"

"No, child, there's more to this beast than what meets the eye."
I pull the Dom Stratus more to the left, as it disappears behind a plateau. It was only concealed by the giant rock formation for a mere couple of seconds, but that was all the time it needed to grab a sturm faust from it's right hip. It emerged again, its hoverjets keeping it moving in reverse this time, as it raised the beam cannon with its left hand, and took another shot. The cannon kicked up slightly from recoil as the Dom Stratus spun 90 degrees counter-clockwise, and just about fully facing the Defiance. It raised its right hand and squeezed the sturm faust's trigger, watching the rocket guide itself to the position in front of the Defiance

You know just as well as I do that at this range, you can't hit me...." Steel then continued his forward motion towards the Dom...

"I know. But I wouldn't feel complete if I had killed you and not used any ammunition."
The Dom Stratus cut the hoverjets, its feet landing on the ground, and kicking up some rock and dust. The right hand came around to help support the beam cannon as the Dom Stratus took yet another shot. The hoverjets kicked in again as the Dom Stratus accelerated towards the Defiance. It dropped its right arm and grabbed the MMP-80 from the skirt armor behind it and fired the beam cannon once more, dropping it afterwards while continuing its advance. It draws a heat saber to prepare for the impending battle

It draws a heat saber to prepare for the impending battle Like Steel had done before, all that was needed to avoid the beam blasts was to straff randomly to either side.
However, he also slowed his forward motion, and began heading backwards while straffing."Libra. You are a real fool for challenging me!" The right arm of the Defiance raised, bringing the White Bazooka up, and pointed towards the charging Dom. Steel pressed the trigger, firing off a single bazooka round towards the Dom.

"A fool for challenging you? I think not."
The Defiance's bazooka round comes screaming towards the Dom Stratus. I manipulate the controls to bring the Stratus slightly to the right as it quickly twists its body 70 degrees counter clockwise. It quickly brings its front end to face the Defiance once again, not slowing its advance. The MMP-80 is brought to a ready position for oncoming violence as the Dom Stratus slowly picks up speed.

Unluckily for Libra though, the Bazooka round was set on a timer, and detonated as it passed close by the Dom.
This sent shrapnel hard against the Dom's body, more than likely wrecking the MMP-80, and damaging the body of the Dom."Very unfortunate for you wasn't it?" Steel laughs out loud.

The timed bazooka round detonates, sending shrapnel into the main body of the Dom Stratus. I activated the heat saber only to find out that it would not work, so I casted it aside. Being that the MMP-80 was to my right side, and the explosion was more localized to the front/left side, it was shielded from the blast. The explosion had knocked the sturm fausts from the left side of my body off, and they detonated in mid-fall, causing slight shrapnel to penetrate the left leg. The left arm also sustained damage, and was at 60% ability.
"Well, Steel, I guess you do have more up your sleeve than I thought, and I was stupid for allowing that to happen. But the fight isn't over yet!"
The Dom Stratus turned towards the Defiance once again, and reached with the left arm over the right side and drew the second heat saber. As it continued its advance, it picked up speed, and fired a few rounds from the MMP-80

As it continued its advance, it picked up speed, and fired a few rounds from the MMP-80 Steel engaged the backpack boosters, sending the Defiance up high into the air, changing motion from going backwards to forwards.
So the MMP-80 rounds just cut through the air which the Defiance Gundam had just vacated, doing no harm what-so-ever to the Defiance.
Then the Defiance then rolled forwards a bit, with the Bazooka pointing down into the Dom's path.
Steel squeezed the trigger again, firing off another Bazooka Round down into the Dom's path of direction as the Defiance was about to fly high over the Dom...

I pushed the Dom Stratus's thrusters hard to vacate the general area. "Shit, I don't need any more of those going off near me..." I said to myself, as the Stratus headed to Steel's old location. The bazooka round collided with the ground a few meters behind me, and I pushed forward on another lever, bringing the Dom Stratus airborne. It spun around, having a definite lock on the Defiance, and began to lead avenger rounds from the head vulcans and fire from the machine vulcans a few meters ahead of the Defiance.
"Steel, admit it, you're having fun. Show me the warrior you've become!"

Show me the warrior you've become!" Steel fired multiple thrusters, rotating the Defaince round 180 degrees while using the shield to absorb any rounds that happen to catch the Defiance.
The Defiance lands hard onto the sand, the hoverjets almost stopping it from hitting the sand with the feet, but the feet did hit the sand. Very soon though, almost instantly, the Defiance was lifted up onto the superheated air once again."Show you the warrior I have become? Nah, that'll be too easy. I want to have a decent battle.... Libra..." He said over the com-link to Libra.
The Defiance then shot off rushing forwards on the hoverjets again, going straight for the Dom.
Steel brought the targetting reticle up to sit over the stationary Dom.

After seeing the Defiance maneuver like so to the ground, I had already raised my MMP-80. The Dom Stratus dropped to the ground, firing a powerful quick burn to slow the decent of the suit enough to where I cut my thrusters, and the suit had hardly had ground contact once the hoverjets kicked back into their original purpose. As the Defiance rushed forwards towards the Stratus, I spun it 45 degrees counter clockwise, and brought the MMP-80 up with the right arm. I flick a switch as the heat saber comes to power, and I squeeze off a slightly extended burst from the MMP-80 towards the Defiance.
