Chapter 1286: Prison Heist -Part 1
"At least give him a memory wipe when the deed is done."
"Why do that when he is probably not going to survive the current ordeal?" Peppers said nonchalantly and Sebastia figured that the Mage Bellator did not think of death the way normal people would and why wouldn\'t she? Peppers might have seen more death and destruction than anyone could so having another human dying right in front of her would be all the same. Even Sebastia herself would have thought the same if Jin had not opened her eyes to other worlds and yet she had not been accustomed to something called dying permanently.
"Peppers, he did us a favour despite how unwilling he is, I think it is only fair to allow him to live through this ordeal." Sebastia tried to rephrase her opinions to match Peppers\' train of thought.
"Fine, fine." Peppers sighed as she drew a magical sigil on the pilot\'s arm, making him squirm in pain for a moment. "This will let him teleport back to the airport but do not blame me for making him suffer the subsequent ordeal he had to face when he got caught by the authorities. After all, it is his ship that we are crashing the prisons with"
"Ehh…guys, you are assuming that this ship can withstand the brunt of the attack from the maximum security prison spaceships," Rei interjected as the spaceship they were on was small enough for him to hear all that conversation from the passenger area.
"Ho ho ho!" Peppers started laughing at such a high pitch which made Sebastia realise that Rei might not have seen much of Jin\'s army at work. Even though she received intel that Rei had been working on a few space crafts that Jin ordered, Sebastia assumed Rei had seen some action beforehand. However, it looks like this would most likely be Rei\'s first big battle under Jin\'s command.
The spaceship took off without a hitch and Jin had replied that they were ready to teleport in the moment Peppers set the coordinates to the System properly. With all the security alerts, it would highly be unlikely this would be an easy grab and run kind of prison heist. After all, this exchange was between the two warring factions. Tensions would naturally be high and everyone would have their fingers ready at the trigger ready to attack if there was something amiss.
However, as much as Jin would wish to deescalate the situation, this war had been ongoing for so long that there was nothing much he could do unless he either made them understand each other or annihilated everyone to make it stop. But both options would gargantuan responsibilities mainly because the universe of Mecha World is not confined to one particular planet compared to the rest of the worlds he had been. With both factions expanding through outer space and galaxies beyond, it would take something more impactful to stop their warring.
That was also the reason why Jin did not care if his actions to perform a prison heist would eventually further escalate their war because this war isn\'t something he could control and the only thing he could do was to make sure Rei\'s family would be safe after this event.
"We are approaching soon," Sebastia said as the pilot pointed out through the cockpit windows and showed them that tiny little sparks of light were where the maximum security prison Spaceships were. Peppers did not believe him at first until she cast her magic onto the shuttle window and it created a zooming effect that allowed them to see the two maximum security prison spaceships and a bunch of other minor security ships as well mechas around the area.
Rei could only tighten his seatbelt at the passenger area as he knew how turbulent a shot from one of those security spaceship\'s cannons would feel. Meanwhile, Peppers was already prepping a few magic spells both offensive and defensive so that their current space shuttle would be able to propel through hopefully undetected until the very last minute.
"Do some damage to the maximum security prison spaceships too, they most likely have some energy shields which could stop our shuttle from pushing through," Sebastia said as she too felt a little excited since this was the first time she would be charging into a battlefield that was totally unknown to her.
"Ya ya, I already did that. Just watch and see." Peppers said as her staff forcefully stabbed through the metal plating floor and an energy shield had been generated around the space shuttle that they were in. "Go now." Peppers\' simple command was not just an indicator for the tearing pilot but also for Jin and the rest to jump into action when the time was right.
The pilot reluctantly pushed his joystick pulley to the highest gear while swirling to the left and diverting off course from the one he was supposed to be in. His actions instantly alerted the spaceport authorities and a large blaring warning was emitted from his space shuttle.
"This is Colony 969 Spaceport Security. Return to your authorised course in ten seconds or we will be forced to shoot you down. No other warnings would be given after this transmission."
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!!" The pilot cried as he maintained the steering wheel and he could see all the security crafts and their mechas sortie out to meet the threat that was blazing through the space.
"Fuck yes!" Peppers exclaimed as she finally held her magical staff and gave a slight twist as if it was the trigger for all the spells that she had been accumulating for the past few minutes of chanting.
