My Joeverse Part 102 - How Cover Girl became an Outlaw Star:
The local Crimson Guard security forces were in hot pursuit of the outlaw known as Cover Girl. She had been on Cobra’s most wanted list for nearly a decade. She was listed within the top ten most wanted for the crimes of rebelling against the Cobra United World Government, undermining Cobra authority, and carrying out guerilla warfare tactics against Cobra forces. She was especially good at the latter. As the Crimson Guard set off on their mission to capture Cover Girl in the Badlands of Sector 858A, the Captain of the Guard announced to his men that the reward money was as good as theirs. He thought proudly of his men and their coming accolades from the Great Cobra Commander for bringing one of the most dangerous outlaws the world has ever seen to justice. Over the past several months they had been planning a trap for her. They knew that her favorite targets were supply convoys because these convoys were usually heavy with supplies and light on defenses. But this time, all the trucks in this convoy carried nothing more than Crimson Guard. As the convoy entered the Badlands, the troopers felt a sudden eerie sense of loss confidence. Despite all their planning, the once eager and robust fire in their eyes was now glazed over with fear and uncertainty. Their moral began to wane as they were reminded of the reality that surrounded them. They knew that at any moment they could be drawing their last breath because no matter how well they planned, no matter how great their trap, they still needed to fight her. And Cover Girl had built her reputation on her ability to annihilate her enemy. Cobra troops who did survive an encounter, did so only by surrendering. The survivors all said the same thing, “We thought we had her, but we never saw it coming.” Each man eagerly waited for the order to disperse from their trucks. They felt like sitting ducks in those cargo trucks. They drove through barren dusty plains under the scorching sun. With each passing hour, they felt their energy evaporate as their sweat soaked into their crimson wool uniforms causing it to stick to their skin in a suffocating manner. It became apparent that their uniforms were not designed for this environment and that this trap was not so well conceived. For if their commanders had failed to plan for a matter as simple as having the right uniforms, what other aspect of preparation might they have neglected. After 8 days in the Badlands, they lose patience. Supplies that were suppose to last 2 weeks began running low. Conditions in the trucks became deplorable. The cargo areas in these trucks were not designed to carry people. Under the scorching heat in the Badlands, the temperature in the cargo hold could be as high as 130 degrees. To make matters worse, they were under strict orders not open the cargo hold for fear of unveiling their trap. Many troopers pass out from dehydration and exhaustion. Their morale was at an all time low. The men now thought that Cover Girl would not fall for their trap and their mission would be a complete waste of time. All they wanted was to go home. Then it happened. Their radio signals and transmissions were suddenly jammed. Their sensors went bizerk. They lost all communication with each other. The men in the back of the trucks had no idea, but their Captain knew exactly what this meant. He immediately shot a flare into the evening sky to signal danger to his convoy. He jumped out of his moving armored car, he hit the ground rolling into a plume of dust and while on his knees, he forcefully emptied the air in his lungs through the whistle he wore around his neck. The screaching sound shot through the air and up the spines of all who heard it. This was the signal they had been waiting for through 8 days of misery. Not because they wanted to face Cover Girl. But because they were willing to face anything just to get out of those trucks. As the cargo hold doors popped open, the first and last vehicles in the convoy were engulfed in a fireball of twisted metal and shrapnel. The explosions blew dust and debris all over them as they poured out of their trucks. Each man knew his assignment and reacted without thought. They took up defensive positions and waited for their sensors to tell them what direction the artillery came from. They quickly launched multiple surveillance drones into the darkening sunset sky. Sure enough, the drones spotted the outlaw Cover Girl and her infamous Wolverine, her personal battle android trooper. The entire unit advanced on her position. Cover Girl ordered the Wolverine to shoot down the drones before they retreated but it was useless. The Crimson Guard launched too many drones to shoot down. So Cover Girl and the Wolverine retreated knowing the drones were over head and coordinating mortar fire. The Crimson Guard closed on their position while mortars were landing all about them. Cover Girl and the Wolverine escaped the bombardment by retreating into a small ravine where the mortar shells would be ineffective. She had chosen the site of her ambush wisely. The Crimson Guard followed in pursuit while firing sporadically into the darkness. With the drones overhead, they were confident that she had no escape and that this was Cover Girl’s last moment on Earth. They were confident that they would be heroes in the eyes of the Great Cobra Commander. Many of the men began thinking of how they would use the reward money or what souvenirs they might take from her dead body. Many were even prepared to take pictures of themselves standing over her corpse as a memento of their great deed. They poured into the ravine, each man jockeyed for a front line position to ensure that they would reach her dead body first. As they methodically advanced deeper into the ravine, they were enveloped by a blanket of darkness created by shadow and dust. They cautiously moved forward with each man alternating to an advanced position as the squad hop scotched their way deeper and deeper into darkness. It was then, in the silent and stillness of the dark, that they were greeted by a calm seductive voice calling them, “Amateurs.” The ravine walls behind them suddenly exploded unleashing an avalanche of shattered rock, Earth and a cloud of dust over them. To his horror, the Captain of the Guard suddenly realized that they were the victims of a classic military maneuver to draw the enemy into a kill zone. And now their exit was blocked off. As the men began choking on the dust, they hear a quiet high pitched whirling sound echoing all around them as it bounced off the ravine walls. It was almost a soothing sound. But the whirling was soon followed by the most terrifying noise they had ever experienced. Cover Girl squeezed the triggers on her twin Gatling Guns and unleashed a torrent of fire with the sound of monstrous hordes of bees. The noise was intensified by the ravine walls. It was so loud that the men felt as if their teeth shattered. With her helmet equipped with advanced optics, she was able to see the enemy positions in the darkness and spray fire on them with ease. At first, the troopers training kicked in and they returned fire in a futile attempt to gain fire superiority. Those men were quickly cut down. Those remaining realized how easily their comrades were reduced to fine red mists and like roaches in panic, they all scurried on their hands and knees for cover. Each trooper clawed his way behind ravine walls, into ditches, and even ducked behind and underneath their own comrades in an attempt to find protection. But it was to no avail. The volume of fire being breathed on them effortlessly ate through rock, Earth, armor, flesh and bone reducing everything to ashes. Religion or cover, each Crimson Guard trooper found one of those things in that ravine. After Central Command received word of the annihilation of the entire unit, Cobra escalated her status from merely being a wanted criminal and pirate to that of an extremely dangerous enemy of the state. This made her the number one priority of local Cobra security forces and they would later unleash the full force of the 13th Vipers Foreign Legion into Sector 858A. This is how Courtney Kreiger, a.k.a. the outlaw Cover Girl, became an Outlaw Star.

Cover Girl Background:
Born into a band of outlaws, the only daughter of the chief, Courtney was destined for a life of hardship in the Badlands. Her father was the leader of their clan. He was once a Cobra scientist, he abandoned his post after realizing that Cobra was the true enemy of the people. He lead a group of followers into the Badlands in Sector 858A in search of a life of freedom. Cobra assumed his band of deserters died in the Badlands for it was believed that Sector 858A was inhospitable. But not only did they survive, they thrived after the discovery of a massive underground auquifer that was able to support a massive population. They began to arm themselves with nothing more than salvaged weapons, equipment, and their own enginuity. Eventually, they pirated Cobra convoys and harrassed Cobra's local security forces. When Courtney was born, her father built the Woverine and programed it to protect her. The Wolverine never left her side since she was a baby. Eventually, what made the Wolverine so dangerous to it's enemies is not its armor or weapons. In fact, by todays standards, the Wolverine is based on an obsolete design. So what makes it so dangersous, is its artificial intelligence programing. Coutney's father programed it to learn. In essence, he programed it to program itself. And after 20 years by Courtney's side, it became more intelligent than any battle android trooper Cobra could produce. Realizing the dangerous potential of this unique programming code falling into Cobra's hands, her father programmed it to delete itself if any attempt were ever made to copy his code. It was simply one of man's truly great accomplishments. It was a symphony of mathematical precision and logical harmony. WIthout fully realizing his accomplishment in the scheme of human history, the momentous occasion passed without ceremony as Courtney's father had given rise to true artificial intelligence. Thus making the Wolverine a completely unique and vastly superior battle android trooper. After decades in the Badlands, Cobra sought a truce with this clan. Due to the group's growing military strength, they offered Courtney's father title and membership in the Noble class. Knowing that they risked destruction at the hands of the full weight of the Vipers Foreign Legion, her father reluctantly accepted. The night of the ceremonies, Cobra betrayed them. The entire clan was wiped out except for one 5 year old little girl who would one day kill more Cobra troops and priate more Cobra supplies than her father's entire clan ever could. The Wolverine saved 5 year old Courtney the night of the betrayal and carried her into the Badlands alone. She spent the next severl years fine tuning her engineering and military skills guided by the Wolverine who was also programed to be her tutor. Although it was nothing more than metal and electronics, the two shared an unbreakable bond and friendship. And with the Wolverine by her side, she soon became the most feared Outlaw Star known to Cobra and one of the future leaders of the revolution. Last edited by lance858a; 04-05-2010 at 02:48 AM.. |
