Flashback 2. The driver of the Mobile Command Center is seated in the driver’s seat.
She has the engine all warmed up, ready to active the D drive.
She is looking, hoping, praying to catch a glimpse of her teammates…
7800 and 2600.
She is fighting back the tears after a huge defeat at the battle of the MGM.
Their life’s work, just might have ended here tonight.
The Yamauchi’s…..
They have delivered a huge blow to the national security of this nation.
The war for the Energon Devise…..
What Team Atari craves more than anything in this world.
What the PTB have made obtaining the Energon Devise, their number one objective.
Flashback 2 remembers sitting in the Dig Dug with Nolan, Jack, Ted, JT and Dabney with Bushnell on Lynx speaker, as they laid out the plan, outlined the war for the Energon Devise and where each and every Battle of Pong would take place.
Flashback 2 remembers how her hair was pulled back in a ponytail, revealing the nape of her neck and how 2600 could not stop glancing over and looking at her. She remembers how that made her feel, how, special she felt that day. She purposely didn’t zip her ATARI battlesuit all the way up, leaving her collarbone visible. 2600….had a hard time keeping focus that day as Dabney told them point blank that you secure those Energon Devices by any means necessary even if death of one or both them is on the table.
Flashback 2 has her orders. She has the fate of the mission in her hands….
Her hand hovers above the D drive button.
She every so slightly taps the engagement pedal, bring the RPM’s up some and allowing them to fall back to an idol.
She will leave if she must.
She fears the worst for her brothers of war.
Right now, the evil Yamauchi’s could have them tied up, slowly removing their toenails, fingernails, cutting off their ears and forcing them to speak, to give up the intell that will destroy not only their mission, but send the world into chaos and will lead to world war 3.
“Come on guys….please….show me something.” Flashback 2 says out loud.
Time is up.
Then, a sight that makes her weep.
Team Atari is walking out of the MGM Grand with their heads hung low.
Tonight, they tasted the bitter spoils of defeat. Yamauchi, all 3 of them. Bested them.
Maki Yamauchi…..she has claimed victory in the battle of the MGM Grand. The battle is hers.
Team Atari...was forced to retreat.
A major setback.
The PTB, they will not be happy about this.
Flashback 2 spots them in just the nick of time! She smiles, a joyous, OMG you have no idea how happy I am to see you right now cuz I feared the worst smile. Tears stream down her freckle kissed cheeks. She engages the D Drive, pushes the engagement pedal and quickly speeds towards them. It is now, officially a rescue mission.
As she directs the MCC towards her boys, yes her boys, her guys. Her brother at arms, where if she had to, she would give her life for them. She would throw herself at the mercy of their enemies to save them, even if unspeakable acts would be performed on her. They are, her brothers.
As she pulls up to 2600 and 7800, she uses the back of her sleeve to wipe the tears from her face.
Slamming on the anchor pedal, she slaps the P button and quickly hops out of the seat and towards the side door. She swings open the door and leaps into 2600’s arms, catching him off guard.
“Oh my god! I was so worried!”
“Dilly…..” a sad sounding 7800 says.
“You should have left Flashback 2. Per procedure, we were late getting back to MCC. You might have comprised this mission.” 2600, always by the book says.
“I know. You will have to recommend me for a Stinkor 5250”
2600 looks into Flashback 2 eyes. Deep down, okay not that deep down he is happy, so happy that she didn’t leave. The last act of retreat that he and 7800 would want to execute is Eternia Mode. A last ditch hope to evade the Yamauchi’s by removing their Team A.T.A.R.I battlesuits and blend in with the local civilians and hopefully, God willing, not get captured. Eternia Mode, the act of removing the battlesuit, is permanent. Death without dying. And for that, tonight at the conclusion of the Battle of the MGM, 2600 is forever grateful Flashback 2 disobeyed a direct order.
“Perhaps, Flashback 2. Your time keeping device was running a tad fast?” 2600 suggests.
Flashback 2 tries to hide her smile, but some of it escapes, her dimples give it away. “Perhaps, I better get that checked 2600. It could use some…….tweaking.”
“Oh?”
“Dilly dilly dilly….dilly!”
Flashback 2 and 2600 eyes get wide.
“You will get a Stinkor 5250 7800!!!! No such language will be used on the MCC!”
“DILLY!”
“7800!!!! THAT’S 2 STINKOR 5250S! I swear. Flashback 2, I am sorry you have to hear such foul language.”
“Well, it is understandable considering what happened tonight.” She says.
“Yes but that is no excuse for such…..”
“2600. We must leave. We are still in great danger. The Yamauchi’s smell blood in the water.” Flashback 2 says to change the subject.
“Flashback 2, you are correct. Time to engage the D drive!”
“Yes sir!”
She quickly hops into the MCC and as 2600 is about to climb aboard himself, his Lynx sound off. He retrieves it from his pocket and flips it open.
“Message from the PTB….” 2600 says as he quickly reads the message. His jaw drops. He can’t believe what he is reading. He is so excited he leaps in the MCC.
“GUYS! AT THE BATTLE OF HOLLYWOOD! WE GO TO WAR FOR THE ENERGON DEVISE! THE ENERGON DEVISE, 7800!!!! THIS IS IT!”
Silence from the MCC as 7800 and Flashback 2 must be in shock as well.
“Dilly….Dilly Dilly, Dilly!”
“7800! You are correct!”
Fade out.
