Platinum Sky II - Chapter 6: Riding On - Episode 4
Ishkur's shield goes offline right before Nightcypher collides with it. Just as (Captain) and the others shut down Ishkur, a sudden gust of wind knocks Fehr's ship away. Left with no other choice, (Captain) and Meteon decide to destroy Ishkur.
Vyrn: Uh-oh, we're gonna cr—
Lyria: Eep!
Meteon: It's gone!
Fehr: I'm going in!
Fehr: Cripes, really! More air currents? I can't let that bother me now!
The dispersing shield gives way to air turbulence, but Fehr pays it no heed as he rushes ahead in Lightning Violet.
Fehr: Lowering altitude!
Archaeologist: U-understood!
With Ishkur right before them, the archaeologist steps out of Lightning Violet.
Archaeologist: Now to remove that plate...
Archaeologist: I-I did it!
Catherine: It's done...
Meteon: It worked...
Lyria: (Captain), Vyrn, look! The weather machine's stopped!
Having overshot Ishkur's position, Nightcypher slowly makes its way back.
Vyrn: Whew, we pulled it off!
However, their relief comes a bit too soon.
Ishkur continues to emit a very faint glow.
(Captain) is the first to notice. The captain yanks the control stick back and yells into the transceiver.
Meteon: Hold on tight, Catherine!
Catherine: ...!
Meteon kicks into high gear and gets Smokin' Cathy away from Ishkur.
However, things don't go quite as smoothly for Fehr.
Archaeologist: Urk!
Fehr: Grab my hand! Quick!
Ready to make a break for it, Fehr pulls the archaeologist up into the speedship.
Fehr: Ergh!
A violent gust of wind knocks Lightning Violet away with the impact of an explosion.
Meteon: Fehr!
Lightning Violet slams into a boulder, hurling Fehr and the archaeologist from the ship.
Lyria: Oh no!
Meteon and (Captain) rush to their aid.
Fehr: Ngh...
Meteon: Are you okay!
Fehr: Yeah, I'll be fine.
Archaeologist: Rgh... I hit my back pretty hard... but I can still move.
Lyria: I'm glad you're both safe.
Vyrn: That's definitely some weight off our minds, but...
Vyrn: Uh, what's happening now?
Fehr: How is it still running with the plate key removed?
Archaeologist: I have no idea...
Meteon: In other words, you're not sure how to stop this thing.
Archaeologist: No...
Catherine: We'll just have to wreck it for good.
Meteon: Sounds like the only option to me.
Meteon: Thankfully its shield is down. Should make it easier to get close.
Vyrn: Sure, no problem. It's only floating in the middle of the storm of the century.
Meteon: (Captain), any chance I can pilot Nightcypher for a bit?
Lyria: Meteon?
Meteon: Of course, I'll need you in there too, (Captain).
Meteon: Once I get close enough, that'll be your chance to bust it up for good.
Fehr: Do you think it'll go down that easily?
Catherine: Sounds like you don't know what a phenomenal skyfarer (Captain) is.
Lyria: That's right. If anyone can do it, (Captain) can.
Meteon: Ready?
(Captain) nods with confidence.
Meteon: All right. Let's go.
Taking Nightcypher's controls, Meteon slowly lifts off.
Meteon: Once I gain some speed, I'll head toward the tornado.
Meteon: Riding shotgun's a bit different from the pilot seat. It's gonna be a rough ride; be careful you don't fall out!
Nightcypher braves the raging tempest to get close to Ishkur.
Meteon: Perfect! I've caught an updraft! Here's our chance!
