Contestant 09

Daniel Waylen looked down at the strange 'Mech lying before him. As if things weren't strange enough already; Word of Blake attacking targets across the Inner Sphere with abandon, horror stories drifting in from all news sources. Then came the odd summons of "Uncle Chandy" . . . and joint training with some of the most elite commands from all over known space. Then this morning, the strange attackers dropping from above. They must be robes, but these 'Mechs were something new - something horrifying. The grace and fluidity that they moved with was uncanny. Still - a gauss rifle round through the cockpit still laid them low. Time to go hunting . . .
