This Whitworths going to overheat himself if he keeps this up, Rebeccas radio crackled. She tuned it out, her vision tunneling until the only thing in the universe was that damned enemy Stalker. She took a breath, let it out slowly, watched missiles burst from their tubes in slow motion, the telltale glow of the Stalkers big lasers as it prepared to unleash another hellish salvo. The baked-in sweat of dozens of generations of `Mechwarriors filled her nostrils as her Awesome vented the heat of her last salvo.
She thumbed the firing stud for her primary circuit, and her Awesome rocked under a hit from one of the Stalkers lasers as time resumed its normal, hectic pace. One of her PPCs struck the enemy `Mech square in the cockpit, shattering glass. The pilot, barely visible behind the armored transpex, vanished in an instant in a hellish inferno of charged particles. The Stalker fell.
A single LRM, corkscrewing wildly as its guidance system failed, struck her Awesomes hip joint. Normally, such an insignificant weapon wouldve caused no problems, but the right leg of Rebeccas Awesome was not the original; and when it had been replaced a century ago after a battle with the Lyrans, the replacement hip joint had been attached in a hurry to heat-fatigued skeletal titanium.
There was a soft pop, and a shriek of tortured metal, then the Awesomes left leg popped off at the hip like a broken action figure.
