Sir Fuck You rocked beneath her, but Divot couldn’t help but smile. Scout Company boiled out of the woods like a hive of angry ants, tossing grenades and planting satchel charges, they blew that damned Zhukov apart in a flurry of activity that left the tank crew no time to—she cursed as Clueless’ Hunchback took a hit, the Zhukov’s crew fighting to the last even as the scouts dragged them from the relative safety of their immobile hulk of a tank.
“You ok, Clueless?” Divot winced, a hit to the head like that would almost always injure the pilot. Shrapnel was a bitch, and as hot as the Hunchback was, the highly-toxic ‘Mech coolant could easily infiltrate even a small wound…
