The Dante ranks were assembled to protect the catapults. If United wanted to get at the catapults, they would have to go through the Dante army, and Dante wasn?t about to let anyone by without a fight. The catapults whizzed and whirred, creaking as they prepare to attack.
?It?s time!? Broli roared. ?Begin fire!? With these words, a hail of catapult fire erupted from a dozen of its holders, crashing through the sky. With only moments passing by, they ripped into the fortress. Before now, Monte Cristo had been known as the gem of the United force. It?s structure had been built from only the purest marble of pearly color. Truly, it was a sight of magnificence. After the battle, however, it would be reduced to nothingness. Broli could only wince as the first series of catapult fire slammed against the fortress, the beauty of the structure already crying out for mercy.
?Sir, should we prepare a second strike?? A guard asked the Saiya-Jin Commander. Broli nodded. ?Yes. Tell them to fire at will.? He took a step forward. ?United? Today you have retreated to your fortress, but I shall make it your tomb.? The catapults were prepared, a second exchange about to occur. ?Force them out! If they want to hide in that fortress, then we?ll bury them in it!? The Commander furthered.
His Lieutenant, Reijin, was at his side. ?Perhaps we should begin a direct assault on the fortress.?
?No!? The Commander snapped in such a way that Reijin found himself surprised at his Commander?s disrespect. Broli found himself surprised as well, wiping the sweat from his brow as he stammered to restate his words. ?I mean? Not until we are sure that we can gain entry.? The Lieutenant frowned but nodded all the same.
Broli watched as another hail of catapult fire was launched away. He knew that a direct assault would be effective, and yet he had ignored it all the same. Why was he losing his tactical ability? I must protect my allies. No matter what, I must protect them. The words of Android Seventeen still rang clear in his mind. I?m nothing without them?
