…And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
~ Book of Revelation

Den Helder, main Knootian Naval Base
North-Holland
Dutch Democratic Republic of Knootoss
------------------------------------------------------

It was past midnight as the navy ships began to move. Taskforce ‘Apocalypse’ left the old, traditional navy base in the Dutch Democratic Republic and headed for the open seas. The taskforce consisted of four groups, named after the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death.

War and Famine consisted of surface vessels, heading out into the atlantic. The official story that went up and down the military ranks was, that these groups were on a training mission. Pestilence and Death however, were more insidious, consisting only of submarines carrying deadly payloads. Silently they made their way to their destinations. As long as the water wasn’t transparant, they would not be seen.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

The Knootian submariner Steve lay down in his bed. The bunk was still warm from the sailor who had been in there before him, but he didn’t mind. The warmth helped him relax, and soon fell asleep soundly thinking of his girlfriend naked.

The huge metal tube he was in glided on silently through the atlantic.
