Farbanti stood in the dim hall, the once grand "Bright Hill" (The Terronian equivelent to the White House) was no no more then a fortress. Farbanti Union flags stood everywhere a symbol to himself of his greatness.

The plans were being written up for an attack on ViZion, one of Tabolovs best allies, and the beginning of Farbanti's plans to control the world.

He knew however, the populacecould never support a war on ViZion, he had to make up a lie, to keep the Terronian people on his side, he knew what to do. Other nations, or Terronian civilians knew of the SOLG's completion, as far as they knew, space was at peace, not for long.

*2 Days Laters*

"This is Trisha Nikonov, live at Billerica Bay",. Behind her, a dust cloud could be seen, crying people were all around, tears were in Trisha's eyes. "What you are seeing is not fake, have the city of Billerica Bay has been wiped out by a Nuclear Blast. The blast occured this morning as citizens were going to work. The Missile struck Pinfari Tower, which erupted, in...." is cut off by a man in a radioactive suit pushing her back, *camera cuts out*

Farbanti stood at his podium in Bright Hill for a message to the people.

"Nothing gold can stay, this is what i have been told as a child, and it is true. I wanted nothing but freedom and oeace for our nation, but, it has been broken. The proprieters of the vicsious Billerica attack, have been found. Our orbital sensors picked up a trail from a missile, the destination was Billerica, the start, was ViZion." Gasp came from the crowd. "In response, the great nation of Terronian has declared war on ViZion, we will punish them for what they have done and the slaughter of over 200,000 civilian lifes. They will be brought before the great people of Terronian, there debt of astrocities will be paid. A cheer erupted from the crowd. An officered man saluted Farbanti and took the podium, with tears in his eyes, Farbanti left the podium, as he was walking down the halls to his office, he wiped the tears with his sleeve, and gave a wicked smile, he looked at General Grevious, interem Head of the Military, "Its all yours", he said, as the general nodded.

Imperial Palace, Risban City-- The Office of the Emperor
Alexander Perkins, Minister for Foreign Affairs, walked into the Emperor's office. "Sir, someone has just declared war on ViZion," said the minister, handing Emperor Scorpius a file. Walking in behind him were Grand Admiral Eric Tarda, Minister Lucius Thrantir of Trade, Minister Myles Abrahms of Intelligence, and Minister Brenn McBone of Defence.

Emperor Scorpius looked at the file, frowning. He shook his head. "ViZion really launched a nuclear missile at them?"

"No, m'lord. Not according to our satellites," said Abrahms. "No nuclear missile left ViZion. That blast started in Terronian."

The Emperor's eyes widened. "A conspiracy...."
With that, Scorpius stood and began giving orders. "Lucius, place an embargo on Terronian at once. Eject any of their citizens from our borders. Brenn, I want you to immediately classify Terronian as a armed and dangerous rogue nation. Alex, keep an eye on the situation. Release a statement as soon as ViZion does, in support of ViZion."
"Yes, sir," they all said simultanteously.

The Empire of Xeraph wishes to inform Terrornian that ViZion is one of the Empire's oldest friend and ally. We have naval, air, and ground forces in ViZion, and would frown upon any hostile acts involving Xeraphian forces.
While Xeraph would not initiate hostilities, we will defend ourselves.

Communique to the government of ViZion:
Even though it appears that you can handle this "war" on your own, please let us know if/when we can help. As you know, Xeraph has one of it's War Hammer Battle Groups in your port. This WHBG consists of 4 Battleships, 4 Standard Carriers, 4 Battle Carriers, 5 Destroyers, 10 Missile Ships/Destroyers, 5 Heavy Battle Cruisers, and 5 Attack Cruisers. Total aircraft on Carriers is 533, including HCGS's.
In addition, the 77th Air Wing with approx 90 fighter jets, bombers, and HCGS's stand ready to render aid.
The 12th Armored Platoon ( 35 Beowulf MBT's ) and the 32nd AST ( 500 troopers ) are on alert as well.
We have many more units available within 1-2 days notice.

Dimitri Tabolov looked out from his forested camp, up above, the sky was dark, it was night. His eyes glistened as he viewed the star that was the SOLG, why did he build such a thing. The reports of Billerica were leaking into his camp. Men were praying, some were burning Farbanti Flags and waving Terronian flags proudly.

His men urged Dimitri to act, yet he knew, his small resistance of 15,000 armed men, most of which were Marines, werent even the size of a Division, they coud'nt even put a dent in Farbanti's military. Yet he knew, he had to take Bright Hill, he needed to rally people to him.

So, he was to enter Bright Hill, witha group of his best marines while the rest would take the Capital buildings. He was risking his life, for his country.

A small group of helicopters were all the resisiatnce owned, as Dimitri stepped into his, he quickly raised a salute to the non combatant rebel onlookers. The attack was planned to proceed in 2 days, while Farbanti was in San Salveken and most of the military was preparing to invade ViZion.

The Grey Legions
17-05-2005, 23:40
Sethanis, High Lord of The Grey Legions, stared at the report and shrugged. "M'lords, it seems that ViZion is about to be attacked by Terronian. Anybody here know anything about Terronian?"
" Yes, m'Lord, we have some info.....nothing extensive. The nation has over a billion pop, which means it has a fair-size military. Perhaps slightly larger than ours. Which means we can guestimate it's naval and air abilities."
" Does the Emperor know about this?" If Alaric knows, he thought, then Terronian is finished.
" We believe he does, m'Lord Sethanis. As you know, one of Xeraph's War Hammers are berthed in ViZion, along with an airwing and an armored platoon.
If ViZion needs help, they need look no further than Xeraph."
Sethanis mused for a moment. " Nonetheless, advise both the Emperor and the ViZionian authorities that the Grey Legions pledge their support. We can supply naval and air support in 2 days, and infantry in 4. Perhaps a pre-emptive strike on Terronian itself will dull their appetites a bit......"
Lord Nazgull stood. " M'Lord, I would advise waiting for the Emperor's go-ahead before any military action ensues. After all, no shots have yet been fired.....ViZion hasn't even responded."
Sethanis glared at Nazgull, then calmed down somewhat. " Yes, yes, your right. It's just been that we've been at peace for so long, I'm beginning to think we may not remember how to fight!"
After he realized what he had said, he grinned almost sheepishly. " No, I'm sure our troops haven't forgotten how to fight. After all, we ARE Xeraphians.........."

~ Being disturbed from his sleep was something Emperor Giovanni Gori I was not keen on, but, it was not of the matter. He was told that there was an urgent report he had to see, and it was imperative that he got down to the War Room as soon as possible. The young Emperor hoped this wasn't another threat, insurgence, declaration of war, or anything of the likes. His nation had been through quite a bit in the past few years. Recovery had been slow, but now, they had finally reached the status that Nueve Italia held in the pre-Civil War era, without all of the internal conflicts, of course.

Greeting General Vincent Larenzi, the highest ranking military officer in the Imperial Republic, the leader was shown a news clip from a nation known as Terronian. Behind a reporter was a scene of devastation; a whole city, wiped out, the people suffering, fire, carnage, all the aspects that Giovanni hated most.

" How. . .how did this happen, General?"

" Nuclear Missle strike. The city itself and the surrounding area are completely devastated. The government of Terronian said this was a strike by the country of ViZion, and has declared war upon them."

" Is that confirmed?"

" Well, sir. . .that's the thing."

The scene in the room went quiet as the Emperor waited in anticipation for the General's response.

" Well. . .?"

" Sir, no missle ever left ViZion."

" . . .Not one?"

" No. However, our scans did report a heat signal being emitted from here-" a 3-D scan of the Earth and the immediate surrounding vacumm of space replaced the news report, and a red dot marked where General Larenzi was pointing, " this satellite-type structure. This was hovering above the point of Ground Zero slightly before the detonation was picked up."

" Does it bear any mark, insignia, anything?"

" No sir."

". . .This was a setup. . ."

The General was puzzled for a moment until he caught on as well.

" Of course. . . they needed a reason for an attack on ViZion. . .and what better reason to declare war than in the name of defending your nation?"

" General, has there been any word from ViZion?"

" Not yet. . ."

" Then we wait. For now, place economic sanctions on Terronian, alert the Vestaglies Neres to combat-ready status, and prep the Naval forces, including the Salvatore. If they would do this to ViZion, anyone could be next. . ."

" Yes, Emperor."

And with that, Giovanni strode out of the room, his requested messages were sent, and life continued as normal, although it seemed that a deep feeling of suspense and suspicion covered itself as a blanket over Cítta diCielo. The World watched, and waited~

Phalanix Embasy, ViZion
The embasy was normaly quiet. The odd armoured trooper here, a diplomat taking a smoke break there, today was diffrent. The decleration of war on ViZion had been announced, by a relativly unimportant nation by Phalanix standards, and as before Phalanix had stood side by side with ViZion through anything that the universe could muster and they stood fast claiming victory each and everytime.
The relativly small troop garison was already on full alert waiting for any news of a possible invasion or missile strikes on ViZion soil while the diplomats hoped and prayed that nothing would happen on ViZion soil.

"Sir, other nations know it was a set up", spoke an il advisor to Farbanti. The war room was silent that day, it was a rest day, most Generals were at home, twas the day before the dawn. Farbanti spoke to the advisor, his smile was wicked, and his eyebrows had the flash of a genius.

"No shit, good, block all communications from the outside war to civilians, as far as they know, ViZion is the devel, but you see, now they know the power of the SOLG. This satilette can strike any target on Earth in under 20 mins. Hehe, plus, both the Andromeda and Kestrel naval fleets are done.",.

Sir, ViZion has yet to release a statement, but already they have much support.

"Heh, if Terronian can win in the Iro war when we were greatly outnumbered and under the guidance of that old flebag Dimitri, imagine, what we can do under me",.

Farbanti took one last puff of his cigar and walked out the room in a haste. As he was, a light turned on, it was red, silents hearld and the deafening sound of a missile was heard. "Huh, an, an airstrike......Tabolov", said Farbanti as he quickly rushed to the Bright Hill command room. Aircraft wer scrambled.

The Helicopter fleet above was aprouching Bright Hill, Dimitri looked on from the open door, the Farbanti flags flying over his beloved capital filled him with anger. A quick radio chatter came over the copter radio.

"This is the Terronian 106th Fighter/Bomber Squadron, sureender now or die, fire a flare to show your surerender".

Dimitri quickly grabbed the radio.

"This is Duchy Dimitri Tabolov, representitive of your true goverment, stand down and join me,".

There wasa puase on the radio, "We no longer have allegiance to Dimitri Tabolov, befriender of the ViZion pigs",. A missile shot from the plane and hit the copter. The copter had to ditch, but luckily no one was heard. In the backround, the sound of fire could be heard. The battle for Farbanti was on.

(Farbanti, on board Oka Nieba (Goverment Transport Plane) escaped Bright Hill to an undisclosed location)

" General, we have rockets fired inland. It appears a Terronian fighter has fired on a helicopter. The Duke was apparently in the copter. No word on any survivors."
Strickland jumped up and began issuing orders. " I want a squadron of Rattlesnakes scrambled to the area immediately. Next, inform the Emperor of the situation. Have 3 Kasatka's begin the search for the Duke's HC, and have them escorted by a half-dozen Cottonmouths. These Terronians have to realize they've been lied to, and that ViZion is not their enemy."
"Aye, sir........orders relayed."

18-05-2005, 03:15
" My Lord, we have a situation."
Ghengiz, Chief of the Black Katanas, came out of his meditative trance slowly. He'd hardly moved a muscle for two days.
" What is it, Tzu?"
" My Lord, we have word from several sources that ViZion is about to be attacked. Shall we strike the aggressor nation first?"
"No, Tzu. We shall wait this time. I have a bad feeling about this war. We'll wait and see what develops. But.......have a division ready, just in case."

The guns of Andromeda moved slowly, loomingly, it was finally xomplete, and just in time too, reports had an imbound of enemy fighters. All Terronian planes were grounded. Like a giant waking from a long slumber, the Andromeda pointed its guns skyward, toward the airspace of Farbanti and fired.

The Andromeda is a multiple cannon military base in upper Loeffelmanova. It uses is 80 cannons to fire EMP (Electro Magentic Pulse) waves toward a destination. The waves disable all airbourne mechanical objects, hostile and friendly alike. Its range can reach all of Terronina but cannot attack other nations. Using the Andromeda, Farbanti knew he could keep the airspace over Terronian secure.

OOC>before I respond, EMP is considered FT. I personally don't mind, because I'm also FT, and will be able to use it to my advantage. Other nations may object, so I would wait and see where it goes before I engage my FT resources....which BTW is extensive.

Anyway, you can probaly RP finding the weakness in it, Andromeda guns have a cieling range of 7000ft, so if your planes go over 7000ft when it is used, they will be impervious.

~ The Palace of Cítta diCielo was stirring violently as the leaders of the Imperial Republic met in the Grand Dining Hall with Emperor Giovanni Dominicio Gori I to discuss what needed to be done concerning the Terronian Situation. The group of men and women sat around an solid ebony table, all of them turned towards their leader, who began with a question.

" So General. . .what's our current intel?"

General Larenzi answered to the best of his knowledge,

" Well, here's what we have so far. Terronian is under a dictatorial regime that came to power in a coup d'etat. They have complete control over their people and the press, so no information they want getting out will reach the people."

" I take it they jammed communication into their country?"

" Yes sir, we have no way of informing the Terronian citizens that this was an attack by their own government. There is, however, a resistance to this oppressive rule, lead by a one, Dimitry Tabolov, a former leader of the nation. We currently have no idea where he is, but we're working on it. If we can aid this Duke, we have a hope at toppling the dictator."

" Has any movement been made by the resistance so far?"

" Apparently, an attack by helicopters on the capital city, Tabolov City, renamed Farbanti after the new leader, was made by the resistance. They were engaged by the Terronian Air Force, and shot down. It appears the country is capable of producing an EMP burst generated by a specialized cannon, codenamed the Andromeda. From our scans, it appears that the entire country is caught in the burst after the weapon is discharged. It will disable any aircraft in its effective range."

At this, Captain Antonio Orsini Gori, the son of the Emperor and the leader of the esteemed Diavolo Ali, the best fighter pilots in all of Nueve Italia, stepped forward.

" What's the operational range of the EMP Field?"

" Our current readings show that it will blanket the entire country up to a 7,000 foot ceiling for a few seconds."

" And what about ships?"

" Unconfirmed what it would do to them."

" Well then, if it comes to an invasion, your saying our fighters are completely useless?"

" Not useless Captain. As long as your fighter wing stays above 7000 ft. when it fires, the 104th should be fine."

Giving a half-hearted shrug, Antonio returned to merely listening to the conversation. Emperor Gori knew his son would more than likely participate in any attack on Terronian if it was ever planned, and the fact that he wouldn't be combat operational for some time would upset him. Sighing, Giovanni continued.

" Ok, any word from ViZion on the situation yet?"

" None, sir."

" Then. . .there's nothing we can do. Until ViZion releases an official statement, Nueve Italia will not conduct military action against Terronian."~

Terronian
18-05-2005, 22:28
Hence why action is slow right now, waiting for a replie.


OOC:Nueva, Andromeda is'nt a shield, it is more like a cannon that fires an EMP burst, the firing cieling is however 7000 ft.

IC:Farbanti was in his bunkers, somewhere in Terronian, his hair was slightly parted, a tired look was about his face. He was pointing here and there and pictures and maps of ViZion.

There invasion had been delayed, Tabolov had struck both the capital, then regrouped and struck Murska AFB in Northern Loeffelmanova, this worried him, Murska was a few miles South of Andromea, and, should things fail, Murska Air Wing, the 4th, jobs was to protect Andromeda. Murska had repelled the attack, but once again Tabolov had escaped.

"Dam he's wily,", said Farbanti a grim laugh escaping him, "He is more of a genius then I thought", said Farbanti

"But sir, he lost both attacks", spoke a General.

"Yes, but, he has a small, highly mobile force, he can strike anywhere he wants, Dimitri loves to much to kill his own people, he just wants to damage our war machine, see here", said Farbanti as he held up a picture of Murska, arrows on the pictures indicated the point of attack of Dimitri's Brigand.

"He entered the gate here, 3 planes were hit by RPG fire, Base guards opened fire but instead of returning it, he led his men South and blew up Hanger 1, still no casualtys, his helicopter group landed in the Center, and fired on the radar tower, then picked up his men and fled. You see its genius, but I cant touch him", said Farbanti angrily. "Unless", Farbanti stared down his vassal of generals, stopping on a young blonde headed one. Alexi Tabolov, he had, weared allegiance to Farbanti, to save his own life, breaking his fathers heart.

Farbanti beckoned an advisor over, he whispered something in his ear and shooed him away.

TNN (Terronian News Netowork)
"This is Mikhail Kolisk", said a man
"And Im Lana Scinzona", and this is what is making headlines today.

"A traitor was found in the midst of High COmmand today, as Alexi Tabolov, son of discrace Dimitri Tabolov, was found guilty by Farbanti's court for being loyal to his father and ViZion, he has been sentenced for death by firing squad for tomorrow at 0900 hours. Farbanti, made this ultimatum to Dimitri Tabolov.

The screen quickly snapped to Farbanti standing in front of his podium at Bright Hill. "I will spare Alexi, if the criminal Dimitri Tabolov, turns himself in and excepts his punishment from the Terronian people",.

The High leader of Zackaroth slowly walked around the chamaber of the Archbishops. He looked at all seven of them in his experssion less face. He sat down at the end and fold his hands. Oboviuously he did not want war now since his nations army,naval,and airforce had just been remade and revamped. His spirtual advisor stood next to him pouring him a glass of water. The first archbishop spoke.

" Sir. as you know there has been a country that has saught to wage war on a friendly nation of VIzon. There name is...lets see...Terronian. There country is about our size maybe a bit bigger and there army could be to. But what distrubs us the most it what our and other nations satelites found." theArhbishop said as he handed the High-leader the paper.

" You see. theres something there. Terronian seemed to launch a nuke at itslef to make it seem like VIzon did it. Its our worriers that if we or any nation attacks...we and all of them will take the same fate. Theres no way to attack it." he said.

The highleader turned his chair around. A smile spread across his face. " If we cant beat them....join them...." He said quietly. " See if you can patch a message threw. I would like to have a talk with there leader.." he said still smiling.

2 hours later the colony's got ready for the missile lunch the one that would lunch first was the orgin of the Mordern tech Soviet leaders which had 1 billion there and they all were there becaues they liked this place and they were still making mordern weapones

"This is Colony's HQ we are going to fire at the SOLG on 5 ok the countdown will start in 1 week so don't get ready yet MWPC said so."
"We hear you."

Mordern War plans center
The Commander of the mordern military said "Interfere with there channels and put the truth of what has happen on there and just wait for there nation to corrupt from inside."
"Yes sir" the hacker that was going to do this
The hacker Hacked every SAT feed he could then he sent it over the radios of everyone that owns one would here and so would the people with T.V
TO:Terronian public
From The Empire of Soviet leaders
All channles
Your great general has failed to tell you that it was not ViZion that attack you with the Nuclear weapon it was your current leader he wanted you to come to his side and help him kill one of your great alies and the international community will make sure people like this are treated to there just rewards.
the transmission will last 48 hours and will keep going if need be

Yeah bub, nothing personnel but im going to have to ignore this, a hacker, a nuclear misile strike on an object in space.

Here is what we are aiming for.

This machine could be able to fire a ray like beam from the drill. We are wondering if it could Fire an EMP wave from it? We have heard of your hugeship that can fire eMP at planes and such. It could be very useful in the war.

The Cottonmouths criss-crossed the skies, weaving a web of protection for the Kasatka HC's who were searching for Tabolov. The enemy fighters were on radar, but were keeping well away from the Xeraphian fighters.
" Captain, I've sighted the copter that went down. Survivors are slowly moving away from the wreckage. Looks like four or five, maybe more."
" OK, lieutenant, inform the KHC's of their location. Apparently, one of the people on board was a former Terronian big-wig. At any rate, Gen. Strickland wants him brought to safety."
" Aye, aye, sir. Message sent."

Meanwhile, 1300 miles straight up, OSS-2 was tracking SOLG and Andromeda. Andromeda was on line and apparently firing at anything within it's range.
" M'lord Director, we need to do something about this EMP weapon."
Ricala, King of Auralinia, Director of the Xeraphian Space League, grunted. " How many times do I have to tell you to call me Ric. This is war, and war doesn't need any more formality than it already has. Now, locate the coordinates of this EMP, and have Guardian Battle Platforms 3A and 6G lock onto it. Fire the blue laser as a disabling move. If it keeps on firing, destroy it. Have the Air Force remain above 7500 feet so they aren't in range of the EMP. Any word as to whether Tabolov has been recovered?"
" No, Ric. The Kasatkas haven't landed yet, but they have him in sight. The Cottonmouths are providing great cover for the recovery teams."
"Good. Anything new from the front?"
" Yessir. It appears that there is actually someone who is aiding the rebel Fabranti."
Ricala looked up. " And who would be so foolish as to aid a coward, rebel, and a terrorist such as Fabranti?"
" Zackaroth......an unknown entity to us."
Ricala stared at the maps. " Zackaroth, eh? Inform the Emperor that we have a new player. He's been wanting to try out some of his new 'toys'."
" Aye, sir."

OOC:The Andromeda is ground based.

IC:
"Sir, Xeraph has penetrated our airspace", said an advisor to Farbanti, they have found the location of the downed Tabolov copter",.

"Was Tabolov on board"?

"Yes sir, but his faithful guards are covering him up pretty decent, most of our troops are preparing to invade ViZion *whenever he responds* and the remaining ones are having a hard time getting Tabolov, or fighting his guerrila resistance which attacked an armory North of here".

"Sigh, but as long as we keep him there, Xeraph cant do anything.

"How so"?

"Xeraphian aircraft are being oinned down, well, up should I say by the Andromeda, if they come low enough to rescuee Tabolov, Andromeda will take them out, dont worry, Tabolov wont be rescued anytime soon",.

'I see, excellant my lord".

"One thing though, the SOLG, currently, the Xeraph's have deployed a few battle platforms close to the SOLG's positiion, I want them destroyed.

"Yes lord"
===========================
Up in space, the SOLG comes to life, its opening bay turns slowly, calibrating its missiles. WIth a whoosh, 2 large missiles erupt heading toward the Xeraph platforms.

OOC: Just some questions on some other things concerning the Andromeda, cant do much other but wait for ViZion anyway. . .

1.) What's the firing rate of the Andromeda?

2.) How long does the blast last for?

3.) What are the key parts of the weapon? Barrel? Base? etc?

4.) Where exactly is this thing located? (North, south, w/e)

Also, Ace Combat does indeed rule. I myself am in flight school, and am aspiring to join the Air Force Academy, so if it seems I'm a little overexcessive with aerial attacks and manuevers, well. . .you understand. Btw, edited my last post due to the last bit of information of the Andromeda.

Hehe, im in Civil Air Patrol, anyway,

The Andromeda has 3 cannons formed in a traingle in the center of a giant circuler fortress. The fortress is surrounded by sensors, and AA guns, the blast, or pulse, last 5 seconds, its located in North Loeffelmanova, look in the map to see the area, the Andromeda, has 2 minute charge period, when charged, each cannon can fire 3 burst, the canons will usually take turns firing to keep fire on an area.

Farbanti stood behind his podium in Bright Hill, reporters, and TV crews were in the room, military officials stood in the back of the room.

Farbanti began to speak, "Ladies and Gentleman of my beloved nation of Terronian, as you know, our forces are preparing to strike at the nation of ViZion, but in there cockiness and arrogance, they havent even deployed, nor prepared there forces for war, allowing others to fight for them, to show them our power, Terronian has declared war on Xeraph, an allie of the ViZion agressors". "Our voices, have for now abondened the ViZion campaign to strike at Xeraph, as of the moment, a bigger threat to our nation, maybe they will come to there senses and when they realise no nation will come to die for them, they will sureender".

The crowds cheered, although most were sour over the abortion of ViZion, they were still happy that Farbanti was doing something. No longer would blackouts be mandatory in fear of Xeraph aircraft.

=======================================================
After the speech to his men, Farbanti stood with his Generals, in a bunker under Bright Hill.

Xeraph would be a difficult enemy, ViZion had been an allie of Tabolov and Terronian soldier knew the land, but not Xeraph.

'How many Missiles are aboard the SOLG at a time"? asked Farbanti

"4 Nuclear, 4 Conventional, and 3 EMP ", said a General

"Good, at all cost, I want to avoid a Nuclear War, or at least, until there too weak to retaliate, I want Conventional Missile strikes from the SOLG on Xeraph military positions, only attack Military targets, any civilian fire will be dealt with harsly, have the Kestrel and Aeger Fleets in there seas, have the Hrimfaxi escort the Aeger fleet, I want control of the seas, and air before I send our soldiers in, got it".

"Yes sir", his Generals spoke in unision.

One of the most destructive times in history was about to occur.
Xeraph
21-05-2005, 22:53
Strickland quickly deduced the situation........."so", he thought,"it's war. Well, if it's war they want, it's war they'll get."

He turned to his aide. " Lieutenant, get word immediately to the Emperor. The Terronians have shifted their focus from ViZion to Xeraph. Then, advise all heads of the War Ministry to mobilize all available units. I want 12 CBG's, 20 Air Wings, and 2 Armored divisions deployed NOW to Terronian. I'm not gonna sit here and wait to be attacked."
" Twelve CBG's sir? Isn't 288 naval vessals a bit much to send against a nation like Terronian? Not to mention almost 1900 aircraft and 700 MBT's?"
Strickland grinned. " That's just the beginning, Lieutenant. When we're through, Terronian won't be much more than a memory. Alert the heads of Auralinia, Grey Legions, Grey Phoenix, and the Black Katanas that we're gonna need their support in this war. They'll give us an additional 20 CBG's and about another 500 fighters and bombers. I want the Katanas and the Legions to supply the initial landing on Terronian, with the Xeraphian, Phoenixian, and Auralinian troops backing them up. That'll bring our troop strength to......"
The lieutenant gasped. "Sir, that would be over 4.5 million infantry and paratroops in all!"
" Yeah, Lieutenant........and we haven't called on our allies yet. We can double that in 48 hours if we need to. But I don't think we'll need to."
"Sir....this isn't a war.....it's a slaughter. They won't stand a chance even if we sustain 15-20% losses. And what if they deploy nukes?"
" We'll cross that bridge when, if, we come to it. Have the ICBM silos on highest alert. ANY indication that theyr'e launching nuclear weapons, hit the button. Our Terran Defense Grid can handle 98% of anything they throw at us. OK, now we need to do two things: we need to utilize the Emperor's standard policy as to advising the enemy to stand down. You know the drill. Number two, bring online the AI Spiders. Theyr'e going to begin this little party."
" How many, sir?"
"All of 'em........I want them to take out the Andromeda before we send in the bombers."
The lieutenant stared at Strickland. " All 220,000? OK, you got it. They'll take that installation out quickly. How about the GBP's fire the first shots and the Spiders go right in after?"
" Good idea. Do it."
" Aye, sir....."

From: Alaric Tan'it, Emperor of Xeraph
To: The illegal government of Terronian

Be advised, I am giving you a chance to stand down NOW. If Terronian forces attack any Xeraphian forces or the forces of the Xeraphian suject-nations and/or allies, I will have no choice but to order the destruction of Terronian.
I am reluctant to do this, as I am aware that Terronian is in the same region as ViZion and some of our other allies. I have military forces in ViZion, as do other friends and allies. It would be an ugly situation, but you know as well as I do that you do not stand a chance. Xeraph can easily rally over 10 million troops to our aid if we requested it, along with full air and naval support.
I ask in the spirit of peace.........stand down now. Diplomacy can prevail if you'll give it a chance. If not........
This will be your only warning. You have 12 hours.

The Guardian Battle Platforms were online and their coordinates set. GBF 6A and 3F were already powered up and aligned on their target, Andromeda, in the Terronians territory. Seventeen more were coming on line, guided by OSS-2, the orbiting space station. All sub-spatial missiles were online and ready to launch. The targets depended on what the Terronian did. If they attacked Xeraphian GBP's, then their missiles would be taken out. If they launched against Xeraphian land targets.......well, if they did that, only God would be able to help them.
The Platforms were armed with orbital air-to-land missiles, with frag warheads. Each missile would level an area the size of two city blocks, with a kill ratio of 88%. Each platform had 22 missiles, and currently, 19 Platforms were available. Four hundred-eighteen missiles were trained on Terronian from space. Four would be launched if Terronian defied the Emperor's wishes. An area of approx 1 square mile would be destroyed. All buildings, dwellings, parks, etc. And most importantly, the Andromeda. Ricala had a hunch that the rebels would attempt a strike against the Platforms, but he had it covered. The Emperor had ordered that any attacks on Xeraphian forces would be met with maximum response. What Ric was worried about is if it escalated. Neither he nor Alaric were averse to launching nukes and/or chem-bio ICBM's. But it was where they would be hitting that caused concern.
Terronian was part of the same region as ViZion, Malkyer, Comdidia, and other Xeraphian friends. ICBM's impacting Terronian territory would undoubtedly affect the others.
Ric sincerely hoped that ViZion would contact Xeraph. There was a LOT at stake............

" General. Orders from the Emperor."
Strickland drummed his fingers nervously. " Open them."
The lieutenant read them silently at first, peered over the pages at the General, then said out loud, " The Emperor wants the Andromeda taken out regardless of the Terronian response to his message to stand down. And he want it done within the half-hour. The Andromeda is interfering with our aircraft's ability to effectively protect our rescue units and Tabolov."
So.....here we go, Strickland thought. " OK, Lieutenant, have Ricala fire the the OATL's, four of them, at 15-second intervals. Signal Col. Davies that the Spiders will be going in to mop-up 15 minutes after the last missile hits. If there is ANY hostile response from the Terronians, have the battleships begin their bombardment of the Terronian coastal areas, walking the dog inland at half-mile increments to the ten-mile mark.
After the battleships are done, have the Pythons bomb the inland cities. The Cobras and Rattlesnakes will focus on escort/support of the bombers.
Have 42,000 troopers from The Grey Legions and the Black Katanas make the initial landings, along with the FireBase Teams and the MASH units. Have Gen. Vincent land the Beowulfs and missile tanks by htis evening."
" Aye, sir."

" Sir, the Terronians have struck!"
" Whattya got, Lieutenant?"
" GBP 6 has been hit by a SOLG missile........sir, it's gone, disintegrated."
" And the others?"
" GBP 3f is intact. The other missile was intercepted 35 miles out from the Platform. Minor damage reported, minimal casualties."
Son-of-a bitch, Strickland thought. Alaric is gonna go ballistic. " Lieutenant, have GBP's 22G and 31J take out Andromeda. The Spiders will take control of that area afterwards. Have GBP 88T fire all missiles at SOLG. I want it neutralised. So help me God, if they use the nukes on SOLG, I'll glass 'em. Lieutenent, order the first stage of Operation ViZDef. It's the battleships turn to hammer the Terronians."
Aye, sir."

The Emperor was issuing orders like a madman. " Admiral, get CBG's 23 through 40 out into the Aon Ocean. I want a wall of steel between us and whatever the Terronians are going to throw against us. Deploy the subs in a semi-circle, 4 miles apart out in front of the CBG's. Scramble the 10th, 32nd, and 66th Air Wings to patrol the skies 100 miles out from the Archipegalo, and tell them if they so much as SMELL anything Terronian, shoot 'em out of the sky. Tell all of the embassies in Xeraphia to get into their shelters. I don't know if these butchers are going to target civilians. Have OSS-1 monitor enemy troop movements, and report any hostile acts. Anything from Strickland?"
" Yessir....it seems GBP 6A has been destroyed by an enemy missile. The General is retaliating.......maximum response."
Alaric was furious. In an eerily quiet voice, obviously controlled with great effort, Alaric said, " I don't want one stone left on top of another. I want those sonsabitches obliterated. And I want Farbanti taken alive. I don't give a rat's ass how Strickland does it, but I want that prick alive.....I'm going to kill him myself, with my bare hands. Has the naval bombardment started?"
" Yessir, and missiles have been fired at both SOLG and Andromeda."
" Good. Terronian is going to rue the day they thought they could defeat Xeraph. I gave them fair warning. They're done........."

"Sir, Xeraph has struck",said a General to Farbanti

"Hmm, was'nt long, let me see, so missile strikes at the Andromeda and the SOLG, damages?

"Well sir, Missiles launched at the Andromeda were fired upon by the Andromeda, it was an untested theory, but the EMP disabled the missiles computer, it struck a civilian sector, 120 or reported dead, and the SOLG, panel A was destroyed and the SOLG is running on half power, just enough to fire missiles and keep the astronauts warm, but they have since suspended everything else they could, lock, habitation room, exercise equipment, so on",

"I want the SOLG to stay as close to Xeraph platforms as possible",.

"What! But sir, that would make the SOLG....."

"A hard target, a missiles strike on the SOLG would result in the missiles exploding, therefore, if the battle platforms are close enough to the blast radius, they will be hesitant to strike".

"I see"

"The Xeraph have made one fatal mistake, they have underestimated Terronian, instead of us attacking them, they are attacking us, we have home field advantage, and I plan to utilize it" Farbanti smiled.
=============================================
The SOLG has been programmed to if damaged beyonf launching capibilites, or if ordered to, will plummet into the atmosphere in a direction toward Xeraph, the SOLG is moving as close as it can to Xeraph platfroms.

The 6th and 76th Infantry Divisions are being sent to defend the Andromeda, the Andromeda will be protected by Aquila Wing, Wing of the deadly Yellow, Red, and Blue squadrons.

The Hrimfaxi is secretly floating toward Xeraphian naval fleets were it will unload its silo of conventional missiles and aircraft at the fleets, a Navys worse enemy is airpower.

OOC>over 40 missiles were launched at Andromeda by several Battle Platforms. Nothing is 100% effective. I'm going to launch 12 more, and then the Spiders are going to swarm over it. 220,000 AI units will finish off anything left.
Also, there are over 500 naval vessals and 150 subs in a grid pattern in Xeraphian waters. And the Xeraphian airforce is out in force. Lets make this a little more realistic, or I'll have to end it quickly with a mega-alliance overwhelming you.
I'm going to destroy SOLG, with major damage to Xeraphian forces due to the nuclear detonation, includung radiation. Won't be for a while, so lets give it a rest for the time being.

OOC> the only things in "space" I'm using are the Guardian Battle Platforms and an Orbital Space Station (OSS). I have an extensive Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxy presence, but I'm not using anything FT. Space stations and platforms are plausible for 2010. And technically speaking, an EMP weapon couldn't jam a missile's computer as the missile is is shielded from such tactics....but I'll let it ride. The SOLG will never make it to Xeraph. If the GBP's missiles didn't get it, the Terran Defense Grid would. And no transmissions could access Xeraph's CommCenters, as the overwhelming majority of Xeraph's routine functions are located underground, attended to by AI units. BTW, I'm not making any of this up as I go along. There are many posts indicating Xeraph's capabilities over the past year and a half.
I'd suggest you get some allies, or the Xeraphian Coalition is going to overwhelm you very soon.

As Tabolov and his guards came out of the woods, they were faced with 60 armed men. "Mr. Tabolov, have your people put down their weapons. We are here to help you. I am Capt. Corsini, of the Royal Xeraphian Airforce. We are friends to ViZion, and therefore to you. We have orders from the Emperor to bring you to safety. How may we be of service?"
Xeraph
22-05-2005, 20:30
Tabolov eyed them warily. Xeraphians, eh? They're good friends of ViZion, and are apparently to be trusted. " So, Captain, your'e here to help me. Do you always train machine guns on those your'e trying to help?"
Corsini allowed a small smile. Alaric informed him that this Tabolov was a bit cagey. " No, sir. Our weapons are at the ready in case those rebel aircraft try to prevent us from getting you and your men out of here. And time is getting short....we must move quickly."
"Where would you be taking me, Captain?"
" A safe place, far away, where you can direct the ViZionian resistence. The Emperor has pledged his full support to your cause."
Tabolov cocked his head and asked, " And what about Farbanti?"
Corsini's visage grew hard. " The Emperor has ordered him taken alive. He want to execute him..........personally. "
" Tell me about your Emperor. Is he the impetuous, bloodthirsty barbarian we've all heard about? I'd like to meet him."
The captain shuffled a bit uneasily. " I'm sure that it can be arranged sir. Now, will you please come with us?"
As Tabolov gathered his men together and began moving towards the Kasatka, a single trooper jumped out of the cockpit, and stalked towards the group. He was big, well over six-and-a-half feet tall, stocky and well-built. His long flowing hair was pulled back into a tail, and his close-cropped beard was sprinkled with grey. He was armed with a pair of swords, a 9mm Glock sidearm, and a heavily customized AK-47.
He stopped about five feet from Tabolov, and stood staring at him for twenty seconds. Tabolov was getting nervous at being stared at in such a manner, and his men were fingering their weapons.
The trooper kept staring at Tabolov as he spoke to the resistence team. "At ease, gentlemen. If I wanted him dead, he would be."
Tabolov's guards obeyed him instantly, as if it were the most natural thing to do. The trooper stood there for another couple of seconds.
" Mr. Tabolov, I'm here to personally see that you are safely deposited in Xeraph."
Tabolov replied, " And who might you be, soldier, that you think you can order my guards around?"
The soldier walked rapidly towards Tabolov, arm extended.
" Permit me to introduce myself, Mr. Tabolov. I am Alaric Tan'it.....Emperor of Xeraph.........."

22-05-2005, 23:07
King Ricala of Auralinia was studying the reports of the battle. The Andromeda was all but destroyed, but the cost was high. 117 Xeraphian Rattlesnakes destroyed or missing. 12,389 of the AI Spiders were blown apart by the magnetic pulses of the Andromeda.
The Xeraphian and Phoenixian battleships began their bombardment, and everything Terronian was gone.....the shore defenses, commcenters, civilian structures, even farms. The landscape for almost 10 miles inland was barren. MASH units were a mile from the LZ, and the Fire Base Teams had constructed seven bases thus far.
Grey Legion and Katanan forces had landed and taken possession of a 22-mile section of beach, and were now organizing for the push to the inland cities presently being leveled by the battleships. Seven hundred MBT's and missile tanks were being off-loaded from the transport ships. They would be ready for action tomorrow.
Ricala noticed with a grim satisfaction that the SOLG had been destroyed before it could reach Xeraph, but the radiation blast had destroyed 3 GBP's. Casualties were running high all around. They hadn't expected such stiff opposition from the Terronians. As yet, the Terronian navy had not engaged the combined naval forces of Xeraph, The Grey Phoenix, and Auralinia. The Katanan subs were keping a close eye on the enemy manuvers.
The Emperor had put a bounty on the head of Farbanti. Any man or group of men that captured him alive would be granted a title and lands in Xeraph. The cost to Xeraphian infantry had been high the last time that the Emperor had done this, but the bitch that dared rebel against Alaric had been captured. She was now a member of the military brothel off the coast of the Duchy of Valtane.
Ricala now wondered where all of this was going to end. Alaric seemed determined to completely destroy Terronian, but this guy Tabolov wanted the country intact.
Ah, well, he thought. The Empire didn't get to where it was by being pussies. You declare war on the Empire, and, win or lose, your'e going to pay a heavy price..........

"Really", smiled Tabolov, he had yet to meet a leader so close to the battlefields. His men were frightened, he could tell by the way they eyed the Xeraphs, although he was assured they were here to help, he woud'nt exactly call them his friends.

Tabolov looked at Alaric's hair, then rubbed his own bald head, he felt a little sheepish and at the same time shameful, usually he was seen in the finest suits, but today, he stood representing what he could if his country in an old outdated BDU with a hole on the sleeve.

He looked at Alaric again, Alaric seemed calm, yet at the same time, he had'nt known Tabolov either, so alyhough both were friendly, you could tell they were uneasy.

"Well, Tabolov, if I may ask, how many men are in your resistance", said Alaric as he placed a map on the ground and tapped it with the barel of his AK-47.

Tabolov studied the map for a second then eyed Alaric wondering if he could trust him.

"We have about 10,000 armed soldiers, most of which are here", he pointed at a small dot on the map, it was a mountain in the north, "Mt Chiliad and Mt Shezna are located here, we had an old air training center there but, we closed it about 3 years ago, thats were most of my men are stationed, our air power, which is slight is also located there, but in Val power, due to Farbanti's dam hold on the Aeger fleet no other fleet would join the resistance, thats why im having such a hard time ordering my men to attack Farbanti's soldiers, most dont support him, there jus afraid to join me", said Tabolov.

Alaric rubbed his chin

"Alaric, Emperor Alaric, I dont know what you like to be called by foriens but, what do you plan for my country, I know it seems you have a deep hatred for Farbanti as do we all, but, dont punish Terronian for that madman", sighed Dimitri as he lit a cigar.

"Sir, dont grovel with these men", Gregory, on of Dimitri soldiers.

"Gregory, shut up"

"Yes sir" he said, a hint of hatred in his voice, he quickly walked away to a nearby tree to take a leak.
=============================

Along the Western Coast of Terronian, the navy was amassing, with the loss of the SOLG and the extreme damage to Andromeda, Farbanti's men were dispirited, however, ground forces and the navy had yet to engage Xerphian forces so although there 2 weapons were gone, they still had the military, and above all us, there Navy, the one shining star was the Terronian Maritime Defense Force, the backbone of the Terronian military, statisitcly, Terronian had a larger Maritime force then Xerpaph.

The Navy was amassing along the Western Coast, from here they will form to conduct a retaliation on the Xeraphian forces. Every Fleet nearby was to be there, as well as 7 Air Squadrons, even if this attack fails, it should at least damage the Xerpahian force and suppress them for a while. Farbanti also knew they had found Tabolov before him, he was determined not to let them leave, he knew they had a small force inside Terronian transporting him, he knew that if they returned to find no waiting friendly force, they were doomed, he also knew the Xeraphian Emperor was among them, and should he be captured, the Xerpahians would be extremely dishearted.

Alaric and Corsini both watched Gregory walk towards the tree, ostensibly to relieve himself. They were both sure that they had seen him somewhere before. " Captain, keep a close watch on that one," Alaric murmured. " He looks familiar, though right now I can't place the face."
"Aye, Alaric, I've seen him, too. Seargent Stearn, keep your weapons trained on that guy pissing on the tree. He looks like trouble."
Alaric turned to Tabolov. " Sir, will you join me up front? I like to pilot these things whenever I have the opportunity. Your men will follow in the other two Kasatkas."

As the two leaders found their way towards the Xeraphian front, on the shores of Terronian, they talked about many things: war, leadership, and, of course, women. Tabolov felt more at ease with Alaric as the minutes went by, even when Alaric was notified that there were enemy aircraft 6 miles out and closing. He had a squadron of the Rattlesnakes dive out of the sun, firing across the Terronians flight path as a warning to stay away. He didn't really want to shoot them out of the sky........they were following the wrong leader, and didn't know it.
When they finally landed on the deck of the Xeraphian Battle Carrier, an aide ran up to him and announced that a sizable Terronian force was massing for an attack on the Xeraphian fleet.
" And what odds are we looking at, ensign?"
" Sir, at present, they have about 1/3 more navy available than we have anchored here. That would put them at 15 CBG's to our 12. But we vastly outnumber them in aircraft. They have about 8 or 9 squadrons, Xeraph has 32, and more are scrambling from the decks of the WHBG in ViZion. We'll control the air."
" Good, ensign, good. Have the Admiral leave the WHBG intact in ViZion. We may need them to defend Xeraphian interests should the Terronians shift their focus again. Notify Lord Sethanis in The Grey Legions that we need his CBG's. Theyr'e the closest. They should be here in a day and a half. Have him deploy 12 of his 20 CBG's, leaving 8 to defend his territory. Tell me, how goes the ground war?"
" Excellent, sir. Xeraphian Coalition Forces are in control of about 8% of the country thus far. There's been some stiff opposition, however. Gen. Strickland wanted to be further along than that."
" Tell the general to slow up a bit. I'm going to give the rebels one more chance to cease hostilities. Tabolov wants the country in one piece when he takes control of the government. And I want Farbanti.........."

Corsini and Stearn both watched Gregory as he zipped his pants. Gregory hesitated for a moment, then whipped his carbine around in the direction of the Kasatka that was lifting off, carrying the two leaders. The seargent was faster. As the bullet ripped through the knee of Gregory, four Xeraphian troopers raced toward the Terronian.
Gregory was in severe pain, blood pouring out of the shattered knee, but he managed to gun down one of the troopers before another shot tore at his shoulder.
Corsini stood before "Gregory". " I know who you are now. Ali ben Gazzera, one of al Shek al Jabur's chief henchmen. You guys just don't give up, do you?"
" You stinking pig", Ali screamed. " I've pledged my life to killing that pig-emperor of yours. And I almost had him. We will not fail the next time."
" There won't be a next time for you, Ali Baba", as Corsini plunged a Kabar knife into the terrorist's throat, jerking it sideways and sawing until the would-be assassin's head toppled off his body, sending up a fount of blood.
So much for this jerk, Corsini thought. Alaric would be pleased to know that one more terrorist was dead.............

Tabolov watched from the Kastaka, Gregory had come to him out of nowhere, most of the men in his guard were close to him or valid Teronian military, but Gregory had come from nowhere, even his name was not Terronian, Dimitri should have known better then to trust him.

The Kastakas landed on a Xeraphian carrier, as they did, warning sirens began blaring, reports of Terronian Armada was approuching. Out in the distance he could see them, he immedialty reconized the logo of the Aeger fleet, he never thought he would see the boomstick side of his own ships.

He glanced over at Alaric and began bolting up tothe Carrier control room, guards aboard the ship aimed at him, but Alaric ordered not to fire. Dimitri ran into the room, and headed for the loudpeaker control and radio. The ship admiral rushed up to confront him but Dimitri had murderous look in his eye that made the admiral step back. Dimitri grabbed the radio.

"This is Dimitri Leskovichlana Drada Tabolov, rightful representitive of your goverment, i am onboard a Xeraphian carrier negotiating peace and the overthrow of the tyrant Farbanti, do not attack but join us".

There was a puase on the radio.

"Men, Tabolov has joined the enemy, do not listen to them, destroy the Xeraphian fleet", said a voice.

"Admiral Marques, I know your voice, I will have you excecuted for that", said Dimitri loudly over the radio.

"Hehe, good luck, lets see how you handle that as a body on a heap nderwater", said the Admiral.

Another voice cracked in, "Are we really going to do that to Tabolov, he is the rigtful leader, Xeraphian fleet, this is the Destroyer Makai, of the Hewlitt Fleet, we are joining you to fight for Dimitri"

"Us too, this is the AA Cruiser Loraine"

"So do we, this is the Frigate Karkow, the Frigate Martra is also coming.

"What, you defectors, you will die, open fire on the traitors".

"Sir, we are to fire on our own ships!?"

"Ile take full responsibilty, just do it, sink them to the bottom of the Cere's ocean.


Dimitri looked out over the cabin and could see the defectors, there ships moving at full speed toward the Xeraphian lines, splashes were around there ships.

"Admiral, although I have no command over you, I request you get those ships here safely", with that Dimitri turned and ran back down to the deck.

Alaric was down on the deck, flicking some dirt of a Kastaka, his mens ears ere all cocked toward the spakers, no doubt listening to Dimitris convo.

"Alaric, I want those ships broght here safely, and I want to be aboard them, from such humble beginnings, my military will once again rejoin me".

Dimitri looked back out across the ocean, toward the spot of the what would be one of the biggest naval battles in Terronian history.
=============================

Terronian ground forces have simoutanously launched a huge ground offensive on Xerphian forces located in Terronian, repairs are also being made to the Andromeda to bring it back to working condition.

The battle of the Cere's Sea soon escalated as yet another fleet emerged, visible both to the Xeraphian, the Terronian, and Tabalov's new navy. If one could see the mark on the starboard side of the bow on the lead battleship, the Angelo Santo, they would see three bands: One green, one white, and one red with the letters N.I.I.N painted across this flag. A broadcast went out to all the ships in the area from the flagship, the carrier Salvatore.

" To all combatants loyal to the true government of Terronian, this is Admiral Faggio Perriggio of the Nueve Italian Imperial Navy. The NIIN gives full support to Dimitri Tabolov, the rightful ruler of Terronian. The 71st Battle Armada demands that the fleet of this tyrant, Farbanti, stands down immediately. This is your only warning. Disengage from battle and return home."

The fleet of 108 combat-capable ships, including 5 carriers, several battleships, destroyers, frigates, cruisers, and any other class of ship one could think of sailed on, positioned to the North of both the Xeraphian fleet and the Terronian Armada. This was a desperate attack, the sailors of the NIIN knew this, but that didn't stop them. They may had been severely outnumbered, outgunned, and with a very slim chance of survival, but damnit, they would put up one hell of a fight. Already, fighters were being prepped for launch, targets were confirmed and locked, missle frigates were making their final checks before reaching combat-ready status, the carriers' individual fleets were put to full alert, and the ocean, oddly enough, seemed quiet, as if waiting in anticipation for the coming storm. The tension in the command room of the Salvatore was enough to make it feel as if the whole ship had shrunk to the size of a raft amongst giants. If the Terronian fleet engaged them, they would have no choice but to fight back, no matter the outcome.

30 or so subs headed torwards the ferice sea battle. One of the subs was the Aratagon. The sub was the prototype. It was not to be a as strong as the other Aratagon which was being tested and fixed. The artagon had a arge drill on its tip that could be used to drill threw battle ships. Unlike its other modle this one could not shoot out a Emp waves as planned. even that was hard to ensure on the other ship since zackaroth had little knowbledge on using Emp. The captian of the aratagon was Glen Hail. He was a Vet of many of zackaroths war and was chosen for this mission. The people around him were abuzz with information and transmissions.

" Ok guys were heading into the heat of battle. i want all subs to provide support as we ready ourselves. Keep us protected until we have drilled threw 3 Battle ships or Aircraft carriers if they have aircraft carriers. We will have no above water support so watch your selves if you have the surface. Attack only the Xeprah forces... This is Glen over and out." He clicked off the radio and speed up the artagon. The other subs formed a sort of circle around it. THe Aratgon was a little bit bigger than most subs so the other ones would have to try and keep up with its not so fast speed.

Hmm... Declaring war on me? You know what that means Ter...

OOC:Well ViZion, Im tired of always playing the good guy, besides, you promised you would play a war with me someday =P.

Out on the TMDS Falkin, Admiral Geruschkev peered out over the Ceres ocean, a line of ships were there, there was a line of Xerpahian as well as Nueva italia ships, a few Zackoroth subs had come to give support to farbanti's forces, he looked at his mena dn sighed, was it really gods plan for such holesom and deserving men to die. No, but, he had no other choice, he was the admiral of the infamous Aeger fleet, even know, going back to Tabolov would either result in his execution, or, if let off, death by an outraged loyalist, he had no choice.

He ran up to his radio room, "This is your admiral, abonden chase of the traitors, focus on Xerpahian forces, dont mind the Italian Armada, they wont attack us if we dont them, at least for now. Is Wet Feet ready"?

"Yes sir, they are deploying as we speak.

The Wet Feet is a secondary operation desighned to scare and confuse enemy forces, while the aircraft are in air, 2000 small radar undetectable bouys will be released, each of with has a projector were lifesize aircraft models will apeear to be shown in the air, cuasing the enemy to waste valuable ammunition and confuse them.

I want 4/5 of the Air Power at the Xrpahians, the rest at tabolovs little bath toys.

On the destroyers and frigates and battleships the orders rang out, "Bring guns to bear", and at the drop of hands and 3 warning sirens, the volleys fired, the Battle of Cere's Ocean was on.
==============================
"This is the Frigate Karkow of Dimitri fleet to Xeraphian fleet, we are sending the Loraine in to pick up the Duchy, we currently need help, were getting *explosians* pummeled by enemy fire and aerial bombardment, damnit guys earn you keep, fir at them with everything! Were not going to last long, oh god, Marines had climed up the workings, Altman use your hand grenade......*explosians*

Out on the deck of the Makai, turrets were firing, being the closet to the Terronian fleet, they were being hit first, they were moving quickly as they can the waiting Xeraph fleet, up in the air, the enemy had complete airpower, the Destroyers and Frigates had no aircraft. The Loraine was attempting to reach the Xeraphians first to pick up Dimitri, there guns were blazing up at the air, but most of the shells seemed to go right through them. The AA guns on the Makai werent helping much either, "Damnit, there like ghost, the shells are going right through them", . "Damnit, radars out, there has to be a jamming craft up there, there is no way there can be that many aircraft!".
"Shit Shit, were done".

2 Teronian planes came screeching down releasing 2 bombs on the Destroyers deck, not much damage, but 10 were killed in the blast, the one SAM squeezed of just barrily missed the craft as they pulled of Cobra's.

"Cobra's, only one Squadron uses them.......Yellow Squadron!", the Captain looked up at the sky, the Yellow Squadorn, the feared aces of Aquila Wing(107th Tactical Fighter Squadron)

Presidential Palace; Shelbin, Jarridia

Evening had fallen on the sprawling metropolis, and the Presidential Office was dimly lit by the few lamps and sunset that shown through the windows. President Branam was sitting at his desk drinking a glass of Jarridian Merlot, and looking over a folder marked 'SJDI Disbanment.'

Suddenly, Kim Shaffer, Jarridia's Secretary of State, walked through the door, and President Branam turned around to face her. She came over to the desk and laid the file before the President. She spoke quitely, but firm.

"Mr. President, we have crisis unfolding in our own backyard." she said.

Jarrod opened the bright red folder, labelled 'Terronian Outlash' and spoke, "So Terronian has chosen to overstep their bounds as a member of the WWA. They have blatantly attacked ViZion, and have made threats to break our sovereignty."

"Yes sir. I have taken it upon myself to forward this information to Marissa at the WWA Parliament, and to the other WWA National Leaders. I believe we must immediately remove Terronian from the Westwood Alliance, or this could have severe repurcussions against our international appeal." Kim said with a frown.

"I agree. I will immediately send a message to Terronian, displaying our disgust in their actions. In the meantime, the WWA needs to vote on the full removal of Terronian from our hallowed halls. Please get Marissa Stassin and John Hyden on the phone, we must begin the procedures." said Jarrod.

"At once, sir." Kim smiled and walked out of the room.

President Branam finished reading over the papers and wrote an official message to the leaders of Terronian.

Re: ViZionarian Attacks. Jarridian Communication

Dear Sirs,

I am very concerned about the violent turn Terronian has taken against its previous friends and allies. The nations of Jarridia and Terronians have been allies for many many years, and the bond that grew in the WWA cannot be matched in any other relationship. It is too our displeasure that we must severe these ties between our nations, and proceed, without our friendship, into the future. However, I must ask that you retract your threats against the Jarridian people, and the Jarridian nation. We have done nothing to harm Terronian, and absolutely nothing that would cause negativity in this relationship.

From this point further, Jarridia and Terronian will no longer be considered allies, nor will we be considered enemies. Though you have attacked our great ally, ViZion, we will not come to their aid and meet you on the battlefield. You do not deserve our aggression, because the war you have caused is unjust and unwanted.

The Terronian Government should be ashamed of its actions, and should rethink its actions in the world. However, if you're eyes should turn towards our shores, or our possessions, you will immediately be retaliated upon, and our aggression will be relentless. I strongly urge you to drop your aggression, before it spreads and you become overextended. Please, do not test our abilities. Thank you for your time.

Alaric swept into motion at Tabolov's request.
" OK, Adimiral, let's do it. Have the subs fire all tubes at any Terronian vessal remaining on Farbanti's side. Colonel Swinson, scramble all available units. I want those rebel Terronian ships smoking and sinking ASAP. Ensign, signal Gen. Strickland that a counter-attack is being planned against our forces on Terronian soil. I want the rest of those MBT's and missile tanks landed within 2 hours. Also, get a message to Sethanis and Ghengiz. I want the additional 20 CBG's here pronto. If they left port yesterday, they should be here in a few hours. Contact President Maybury that we're glad he's joining the fray. This should put an end to Farbanti's treachery."
"Sir, what about the navy?"
Alaric grinned evilly. " Have the battleships, destroyers and missile cruisers open fire on the Terronians. That'll keep 'em busy for quite a while. When the Grey Legion and Black Katanas get here, the Terronians will realize that they bit off more than they can chew. Thirty-two CBG's, with 24 vessels per CBG, will have then surrounded. And the 400+ fighter-bombers will provide maximum damage."
"Aye, sir."

This is going to be a hard fight, but I am confident we will be victorious. Our ally, ViZion, will join us shortly, and I have ordered the nations of Auralinia, Grey Phoenix, Grey Legions, and the Black Katanas to the battle for Terronian. Rest assured, Xeraph will do all it can to provide you with victory. We presently have 42,000 armored troopers on Terronian soil, moving towards the capitol. Another 76,000 are en route, and will arrive within hours. ViZion will undoubtedly come in from the other side, and we'll squeeze the rebels in a massive pincer movement. I have a bounty on the head of Fabranti. Any loyal subject of the Empire or Terronian will be given a title and lands in Xeraph for capturing Fabranti alive. I have ordered all lines of communication open for coordination of attacks. Good luck....and good hunting!"

" That's ok, sir. The Terronians can't plug the hole for the same reasons. Both sides are running about 40% losses."

ooc: Not to be critical or anything, but my nation's name is Nueve Italia. Nueve. Ok? Sorry bout that.

~ Watching the battle from the command deck of the flagship, the carrier Salvatore, Admiral Perriggio decided that this was enough needless bloodshed.

" No. . .no more. Defend those ships at all costs, protect all Loyalists ships heading towards the Xeraphian fleet! Launch all fighters now!"

At this, a comm. officer looked up from his post, quizzical.

" Admiral, does this mean you want the 104th up there too?"

The commander paused for a moment, and knew he had no choice anyway.

" . . .Send 'em up. Launch the Diavolo Ali."

_____


On the flight deck of all 5 carriers, aircraft were being prepped quickly and sent into battle. Their mission: Destroy the enemy's air supperiority, and protect the newly created Dimitri Fleet at all costs. However, aside from the regular fighter groups being sent into combat, there was one special squadron readying to leave the deck of the Salvatore. Though it was essentially an entire battle group, the 104th here was comprised of only 6 pilots: The best in all of Nueve Italia. To their enemies and allies alike, they were known as the Diavolo Ali, the "Devil's Wings," and they had earned that title well in many battles, including an amazing defense of Cítta diCielo, Nueve Italia's capital city, during the Nueve Italian Civil War.

Though their default fighter layout was hindered due to the fact that the 104th Squadron was launching from a carrier, they were still armed to the teeth. Already, two F-35Cs, two NA-74 Spadas (a Nueve Italian creation meant to mimic the F-15E Eagle, however, outfitted for carrier launch), and an AE-7 Furfante (another NI fighter, similar to a carrier launched Typhoon Multi-Role aircarft.) were in the air, waiting for their Captain to take off and join them. On the flight deck, the last AE-7 was just about ready to go.

" Mustang, this is Flight Control, you are clear to go. Shoot some of the bastards for me."

" Flight Control, this is Mustang, will do. Good hunting on the ground boys."

Within several seconds, the Captain, Antonio Orsini Gori, or as he prefered to be called, Mustang, was in the air along with the rest of his wingman, heading towards the enemy aircraft.

" Alright, this is Mustang to all NI aircraft, follow my lead, we're taking down their fighters first."

And with that, the mixed assortment of multi-role and air superiority fighters fell in behind their beloved leader and moved into attack formation. One rookie pilot in an F/A 18 Hornet saw a target, dived away from the formation, and unloaded his 20mm Vulcan Cannon on the target, only to see his bullets rip right through the plane without so much as a ripple. Several other pilots had come across the same effect, and soon the radio waves were a filled with angry rhetorics and general confusion.

" What the hell?"

" They're passing right through!"

" Come on, bastard, die already!"

" There's no way that happened. . ."

" Damn, fighter on my six! . . .wait. .that thing just rammed through my plane!"

" Mierda, what is going on here?!"

Soon, one of the aces of the 104th, under the callsign of Eroe, came up with an idea.

" Hey. . .hey, I think i figured it out!"

At this, another pilot, Shock, who was actively hunting a "real" target, and had just succeeded in destroying it with a short range air-to-air missile, decided to chime in.

" Well, can you enlighten us as to what you've discovered before we all get killed?!"

" Yessir. Captain Gori; Jammer signal being emitted."

The Captain, who was indeed the son of the Emperor himself, had realized this to be true as well.

" Copy that, Shock, Soldado, and Eroe, hunt that damn thing down now, everyone else is with me, we're taking as many of them down as we can."

Bullets and missiles weaved through the skies, ending in bright orange and red blossoms, showering the cool water below with burning hot pieces of metal. The Nueve Italian Royal Air Force was slowly gaining the upper hand in the air, though not by much, and of course, there was still the problem of the Terronian Armada to deal with, although the NIIN still hadn't fired a single shot. . .yet.

"Sir, reports", a good said Farbanti, what have we got.

'Well sir, we have ben ableto keep the Xerphians at bay, our forces are in a stalemate with them in Osifica about 20 miles from Vzerony. They punched a hole, but, there forces are severly weakened and even had they pushed through, the reserve lines would have dwindled them. We too however are running out of troops sir, the stalemate in Osifica has resulted already in 23,000 deaths."

Farbanti thought for a moment, 'As long as we keep the Navy at bay, we can deal with ground forces, air suppiority has been a problem along the coast but we have a window as most enemy allied aircraft are engaged with the Naval Battle in Cere's Ocean.

"Ah yes, how goes that battle?"

CUrrently statistics have yet to bee released, the battle is moving slowly, as we wanted, but the Ghost Fighter Holograms are working confusing the enemy, we did have reports of a few smaller ships defecting to Dimitri, but, its just reports at this time.

"The Western Front scares me, so many losses, we still have plenty of reserves troops but how long can it last,"said Farbanti for the first time in his life shedding tears, "Send in the Cadets", he said.

"Yes sir," they knew no longer to question Farbanti, the Cadets were coming.

The Cadet Force is a branch of child soldiers ranging from 14 to 20, the branch is split into 3 sub branches, Youth Ground, Youth Naval, and Youth Sea, they are now being called up to fight.

*Cadet Navy has been in battle all along, they assist the Terronian Maritime Defense Force on there ships".*
======================
The Makai pulled alongside the Xeraph carrier, the admiralsa from the ship boarded and gracously, surrendered to Xeraph forces, then picked up the Duchy, the remaing defectors formed in grid formation to the Eastern side of the Xeraph Armadas, Dimitri was ready to command.

Up above, a firce air battle was engaging, although outnumbered, Terronian planes were had a slight advantage as Radar was blocked and the numerous ghostfighters *holographs* confused enemy planes, not knoing what to shoot.

Losses as of war 34,000 soldiers
76 Aircraft, 19 from Nueva

~ The 104th Squadron had finally had a slight moments peace to regroup and fall into formation. Quickly, the Captain made sure his fellow combatants were still in the air with him.

" Diavolo Ali, report in."

" Flame, standing by."

" Shock, standing by."

" Soldado, standing by."

" Eroe, standing by."

" Soldata, standing by."

" Alright, Shock, any report on that jammer?"

As the aircraft formed into a "V" formation, Shock gave the negative reply.

" No sir, there just isn't any jammer out here. . .I don't get it."

The aircraft soon broke and dived down to the battle once more, knowing that every second they didn't fight, more Nueve Italians, Xeraphians, and true Terronians would die. Finally, Mustang knew what was going on.

" This isn't a jamming aircraft. . .it's a jamming signal!" concluded the greatest fighter pilot in all of the nation.

" What was that Captain? Didn't copy."

" Flame, cover me for a minute."

" Roger. . .what are you on to Captain?"

" There is no plane hampering with our systems. . .Those enemy fighters are holograms. There is some kind of. . .jamming signal producing them. . ."~

OOC> Nueve Italia...many apologies.......

IC> "Alaric, the reinforcements are ready to relieve the front lines. We'll have that hole opened up in no time. The Armor is holding the rebels at bay, but theyr'e suffering terrible losses. Those Marines have got to get there within the hour."
" They'll be there, if I have to lead them there myself." Alaric was in a murderous mood. If it wasn't for Tabolov and Marbury, he'd glass the bastards in Terronian. " Colonel, I want those Marines air-dropped. Don't make 'em walk the whole way. And get a message to Marbury. He needs to send his troops and armor to come in behind the Terronian forces. We're gonna squash the bastards."
Alaric quickly scanned the reports. " I see that Tabolov is in direct command of the loyalist forces. He's a good man. We'll have to form an alliance with him when this is all over. Are the naval reinforcements in place yet?"
" Yes, sir. We're pounding the hell out of the rebels front to back!"
" Excellent!" Alaric was gradually getting in a better mood. It was always that way when he was winning........and killing.
" Get hold of Col. Davies. I want the Terronian capitol carpet-bombed. Use the MOABS."
MOAB (mother-of-all-bombs) were 600 pound incendiary/frag cylinders of destruction. The bombers could only carry two or three of them at a time, but their effect was devastating.
" And don't forget to remind every able-bodied warrior we have about the bounty on Fabranti. That shithead is gonna pay....big time."
" Sir, we have reports that Fabranti is calling uo his Youth Corps. Alaric, theyr'e sending kids against us!"
That friggin' asshole.........just like Hitler 200 years ago, Alaric thought. Well, we all know how HE ended up.
" Lieutenant, send a message to Fabranti. No, wait. I'll send it."

________________________________________________________________

The message was prepared, and it was broadcast over the Terronian airwaves.

" Attention! This is Emperor Alaric Tan'it of the Xeraphian Empire! I am speaking directly to the traitor Fabranti. Fabranti, you are causing the deaths of thousands of Terronians, both military and civilian. You have no chance of winning this war. Duke Tabolov is in command of the Loyalist and resistance forces, which are growing in number as we speak. Your soldiers and sailors are abandoning you by the thousands. Make the right choice....surrender now. Neither we, ViZion, Nueve Italia, nor any of our allies wish to destroy the Terronian capitol. But we will, and when we find you, you will suffer the most horrible death imaginable. I repeat, surrender now. We are not going to fight children. They will be easily captured, and returned to their homes. You have one hour."



There was a space of time when all was quiet. No shots were heard on any of the various battlefields of the Terronian War. No sounds of men killing and being killed. No death and destruction. Whether it would continue, or erupt into the bloodbath all feared, was up to one man......Fabranti.

Farbanti reviewed the wired message from Alaric, he quickly jotted down ahastily prepared note to be sent.

Dear Alaric Noble Leader of Xeraph

Your empty threat do not scare me, in lew of all, you claim to be here to bring about peace, help Tabolov, and fre Terronian from me the rightful ruler, wereas in messages and radio comments we have picked up, you constanly refer to us as bastards, and scoundrels, you say you will help the people when you plan on bombing them, you say you will relieve them while there are talks of punishing them, the Terronian people can see through your lies, we will nto give up. In the words of one of my favorite historical figures, "I have not yet begone to fight!".

The letter was sent ASAP, it didint matter how many Terronians had to die to keep his empire, his dreams for Terronian were to come true, he knew it.
====================================
Over in the Ceres Ocean, the battle was picking up, the jamming signals emitted rom the holograms was still doing its job,over the skies, Yellow Squadron and the Diavolo Air were split from the reast of the groups, the most feared fighter pilots of Nueva taking on the most feared pilots of Terronian.

"Dam, this one is pesky"

"yeah I know, dont you turn on me, fox 2 fox 2!"

"hit?"

"negative"

The planes in the air were twirling in a ballet of death, the Yellow Squadron had a differan way of flying then the Italians, they resorted on high and fast manuevers.

"Yellow 12, Missile! Missiles!"

Yellow 12 Cobra'ed and avoided the missile.

"I got a lock" said Captain Jordan, Squadron lead, "Hit", he's not hit but he is tailing smoke, he is going feet wet now.

~ Leonardo Lucchese, who was known in the air as Eroe, or "Hero," in Italian, tried desperately to regain control of his struggling fighter. The missle strike had destroyed his left flap, causing the aircraft to tilt dangerously to the right.

" God DAMNIT! The flaps are shot, I've lost all control!"

" Eject! You've got no-"

" She's breaking up, I'm not gonna last long here!"

" Eroe, calm dow-"

" Damnit, he's gonna fire again!"

" EROE! Gain some composure and eject now!"

Realizing that he had been overreacting, Leon took a deep breath, grabbed onto his controls, and forced the plane right-side up.

" . . .Copy that Mustang. . .I'm bailing out."

The canopy of the NA-74 blew open, and the pilot rocketed out as his weapon crashed into the water below. Pulling his 'chute, Eroe floated down to the wet world below, and brought his right hand up in a salute as his Captain flew by.

" Get the bastard for me."

_____


" Alright, I'm right on him. . ."

Mustang wasn't about to let the fact that one of his fellow pilots had almost been killed simply slip away. Gliding in behind one of these enemy aces, the Captain stuck to him as best he could.

" These guy's are pretty good. . .no matter."

Unleashing a barrage of 20mm cannon fire from almost 200 yds. away, Mustang walked the gun up against his enemy's fuesalage, tearing through his wings and body.

" Hit, he's hit!"

" Down, Captain?"

" No. . he's still flying . . . for now."

Breaking away from his current target, Mustang saw another enemy plane releasing two missiles at one of his other wingman. She disengaged quickly and dived, the deadly fireballs sticking to her plane closely. At the last moment, she banked up, letting the missiles crash harmlessly into the ocean.

" Move on Flame. . .this one is mine."

Mustang and the enemy pilot flew straight at eachother, neither moving an inch. Finally, the Captain released two rockets of his own and pulled an Immellan turn, making sure he didn't ram into the fighter himself.

" Kill?"

" I don't know, can you see him?"~

We've got them on the run (sort of) because they can't fight us all and win. I was going to use tactical nukes, but he's in the same region as you guys and that would have compromised your region.

"Dam, im hit", said Yellow 17

"Damnit, how bad"? asked another yellow

"Pretty bad, im trailing smoke, my emergency sirens are going off like crazy"

"Bail Out"!

"I cant, thos are our ships under us, I cant kill my own countymen, I can last

"The planes nose was slowly speeding toward an open pocket, fire was burning the left wing.

"Its, too late, the ejector is fried", he closed his eyes

"No damnit 17, get out"

"I, I loved flying with you guys" with that the plane exploded, only 30 feet from the ocean, 17's body disapeared into the skys forever

"Bastards, you Nuets are paying for this,"!
======================================

Along the Western Front (land) Terronian forces were lined up, the stalemate was forcing heavy casualties, no one side could gain a massive advantage, Terronian lines had broken but as of yet, advancing enenm,y forces never made it long.

Trenches as far as the eye could see, local towns were ransacked by Terronian troops for supplies, but atleast they knew, mental fortificaion wise, they were better off then Xeraphs, the Xeraphs wre far away from there homes, they were low on reinforcements, and the naval battles in the Cere's Ocean was making supplies a pain for them, whereas the Terronians had a nice supply of reinforcements, and supplies, once more, forces were bing bolstered by Cadet troops.

In a trench....

"Hey, Darry, got a smoke", siad a Terronian soldier to a friend next to him, both were brandhished in TIS (Terronian Infantry System) gear, there R-67 pointed out ahead, they had seen alot of action, the sounds of tanks were in the backround.

Darry haned him a smoke, 'Here ya go Peter, are you worried?"

"About what", said Darry as he lit his cigerette.

"The Xeraphians and ViZions, whenever one enemy is supressed more rise up, plus even if we beat Xeraph, we have a long number of other nations to fight, I mean, we have lost to ViZion before, remember the acigoo conflicts?" he said

'Bah!, That was all that fool Dimitri's fault, Farbanti is a true leader and knows whats best, sure im scared, but, my pride fixes all, you know Ivan, I told you about?"

"Yeah, your son?"

"Yup, I heard from my wife he was called up Yesterday, makes me proud,"

"Ivan's a cadet aye, man, I dont have kids and if I did, I woud'nt let them go to war, I mean, its hell, howmany are left in our company?"

"Thats your opnion but, lets see, well Francias died, Yesterday, or was it Tuesday, bah i cant remember", he said, as he did a small figure jumped into the trench spot next to him, he peered around

"Welcome, would you like a sm......Ivan!"

The figure was a boy, small short cut black hair, is eyes were steely blue, he was looking at his father. They hugged

"Oh Ivan, your here with me, this is great, we can beat the Xeraphs togethor", he said, as he remembered the military bearings.

"Dad, your embarassing me,"said the boy as other Cadets who were slipping into holes were layghing.

"Oh sorry, from now on your not son but Cadet Staff Sergeant Jaskov" said the man

"And your Master Sergeant Jaskov" said the boy as they laughed, this was stopped by the sound of artillery from the terronian hill enplacement, enemys were coming.

~ While the battle raged in the skies above the Ceres Ocean, Admiral Perriggio had manuevered his fleet into an effective combat perimeter. His heavier battleships formed a spearhead around the Xeraphian fleet as a broadcast went out to the NIIN's allies.

" Navies of Xeraph and Dimitri Tabolov, this is Admiral Faggio Perriggio of the NIIN. We are preparing to engage the enemy armada, and we ask for your assistance. Our carrier's escorts will defend Tabolov's Naval Forces until they are combat ready. The rest of our fleet will engage all hostiles, starting with their carriers. We eliminate the enemy's control of the skies, we can win. Xeraph Armada, join us in this strike: We win here, and we have a shot at Terronian itself."

_____


The dogfight above continued on fiercely as each pilot banked and dived, manuevering into the best possible position to engage the enemy, firing away: into the skies above, into the water below, simply trying to end the battle as quickly as possible.

" Flame, Shock, cover me. I'm on the leader."

" Copy that Captain, falling in."

The three-wing formation took after the equal number of enemy aircraft, however, they didn't see the enemy dive in from above.

" Captain, look high!"

Turning his head to peer above the canopy, Antonio saw the missiles heading right towards him. Jamming his stick forward and slamming on the right pedal, the Captain knew he was done for: he had moved too late. . .

Out of nowhere, an AE-7 Furfante flew above him, took both of the explosives in the body and wing, and dived sharply.

" Soldata, bail!"

Whether or not Giovanna heard the order, the pilots of the 104th wouldn't know. The fire spread quickly, caught a ruptured gas port, and blew the plane into pieces. The raining metal splashed harmlessly into the water below: the last remnants of the first Diavolo Ali to die.

It took a few seconds for Mustang to register what had happened. His plane slowed down, and seemed to float. Only when an enemy rocketed past his cockpit did Antonio remember that he was in a battle, and that he had to avenge his slain comrade, no matter the cost.

" Flame. . .Shock. . .disengage."

" But, Capt-"

"Disengage. I'll bring him down."

The hatred in Antonio's voice was something his wingman had never heard before: Normally he was always calm and cool under pressure; now, as his afterburners were put into full effect and his own AE-7 roared forward, as if a Tiger leaping upon its prey, the aces of the 104th saw the Captain's true nature.

" Alright Terry. . . it's your turn."

He wouldn't give this pilot the luxury of bailing out. If he was going to make the kill, than he would make sure his enemy suffered the same fate as Giovanna. Her face popped up in his thoughts, and the image grew until it was all he thought of. She would never fly again, never smile, never speak, never cry, never laugh. . .nothing. Nothing ever again. His eyes narrowed as his HUD formed a small red circle around the fighter in front of him. It pulled up and banked to the left. He followed methodically, slowly arcing his plane after the target. His thumb found the fire button, and quickly, he tapped it twice. Two rockets raced after the metal object in front of them. Two explosions in quick succession. He banked away and looked behind him. Nothing. . .Nothing ever again.~

Two rockets struck the side of Yellow 21's plane, almost immedialty, the nose crumpeled in, the plane exploded, 2 Yellows dead in one day.

"Damnit, this battle is ridculous, looka t all the planes!"

"remember, half of them are holograms, okay, im running low on fuel and bullets, this has been goign on for hours, we can only hold so many missiles and keep so much G-Force"

The 12 remaining planes of Yellow Squadron RTBed to there carrier, they flew quickly into the safe cover of there allied fleets AA guns, almost as if minutley timed, Red Squadron came to reinforce the position. Although not aces, Red Squadron was still a potent force, and when Yellow Squadron returned to the skys with Red Squadorn, all hell could break lose.

Alaric paced the War Room floor, looking first at the battle-map, then the wall map indicating the ebb and flow of the two battle fronts. He summed up the situation:

Of the original 42,000 troopers landed in Terronian, 23, 261 were left, carrying on the brunt of the fighting.
The additional 76,000 troopers of the Grey Legions and the Black Katanas were less than an hour away from reinforcing the front lines.
Of the 700 MBT's landed on the coast, over 600 were left mobil. The others had been neutralised. 350 more were on their way, on the right and left flanks.
Of the 220,000 AI Spiders that had destroyed Andromeda, 174,357 were rendered useless by the last violent efforts of the EMP weapon. The remaining 48,000-odd Spiders were fanned out to prevent any Terronian forces from making an attempt to recapture it and perform repairs.
Verboten Lufftewaffe had committed 400,000 AI ShockTroops to the conquest of Terronian. These forces were going to come in on the northwest and northeast sections of Terronian. In addition, 525 MBT's were coming in to reinforce the Xeraphian's.
Concerning the sea-war, Nueve Italia was proving a valiant ally. The Emperor had ordered 288 EX vessals to aid the NIIN Armada in their attack on the Terronians.
The combined reserves of Xeraph, Auralinia, and The Grey Phoenix, approx 448 vessals, were coming in behind the Terronian navy. Over 700 naval were bearing down on the Terronians.
Xeraph ruled the skies. Over 1400 aircraft criss-crossed the skies, blasting the Terronians out of the air with alarming regularity. The cost was high....very high. But the edge was going to Xeraph.
And everyone was still waiting for thw two unknowns.....Zackaroth and ViZion. Zackaroth had still not made the promised appearence to come in on the side of the Terronians. And ViZion was in preparation, but still all were waiting for his arrival.
The loyalist Tabolov forces were massing for a final, balls-out attack on the hated Farbanti.
This was far from over.........

25-05-2005, 02:29
Strickland was tallying up Xeraph's losses. They were running higher than they were acustomed to.

Over 30,000 trooper KIA, MIA, or WIA.
Over 160 MBT's lost.
AI losses were staggering: almost 200,000 rendered inoperative.
Aircraft lost: 357.
Naval vessals lost: 139 sunk or limping along useless.

Alaric is undoubtedly beside himself. Farbanti was going to pay dearly......

===============
Yellow Squadron once again took there place amongst the skys of the air battles, there friendly planes were droping into the ocean like flaming balls, constanly, almost all of the holograms had been destroyed by now, either by ships fire or crashed aircraft so the edge was over now for the Terronians, Yellow Squadron was going to change it, instead of flying to the Vectors of water under Nueva, they headed for the Xeraphian lines, up ahead, a friendly squadron was losing air suppieority to Xeraphians. Yellow Squadron came busrting through the clouds, and true to there makrs, fired there missiles. Explosians

Heavy AA fire from Xeraphian ships were occuring , Yellow 23 was hit hard on the tail, down below, he knew that bailing out would cost him his freedom, he would be captured, he would atleast go down dignitly, he spotted the Xeraphian flagship, reports had circulated that the Xeraphian Emperor was on board, he took a deep breath andaimed his plane, fire erupted from the carriers decks, narrowly missing him, anither volley tore through his left engine, he cous'nt believe his plane was still in the air, he aimed carefully, the ejected, he floated effortlessly to the water, he saw his plane float up, stall and flip about and crash into the Carriers deck, a fireball emitted that caught a few planes taking off, and the side of the Carriers cabin, inside himself he felt great glee and pride.

He could see Xeraphian patrol boats heading toward him, they were coming, he pulled out his pistol and began firing on the docks, no shots rang back, he smiled one last time, and avoiding capture, stuck the pistol to his head, "For Farbanti", he screamed as he pulled the trigger.
================
A radio message came over allied post,

"This is Dimitri Tabolov of the Dimitri fleet, as current admiral, it is my dutie to form these ships into a provisional battle fleet, we have to assist Xeraphians and the Nueves",

"Hells Yeahs and cheering erupted"

Dimitri Fleet was finally in the battle.
=====================
Back in Bright Hill, Farbanti was quickly placing things here and there on a map.

"Its time to break this stalemate", he said The orders were given out for another offensive on Xeraphian ground forces, only, this one would be huge, 200,000 troops in all, coming from Auxillery divisions and from Divisions stationed away from the fighting, all coming to assist the attack.

Private O'malley was getting sick and tired of being pinned down. It had been three days now, and the Xeraphian Coalition troops were giving as good as they got, but it was pretty much of a stand-off at this point. The guys knew about the Andromeda being destroyed, but the huge losses of the Spiders had set them back. They were hoping the Spiders could reinforce their push towards the Terronian capitol. There were rumors of VL coming in to help them, but nothing had materialised yet.
The tanks had held the line, and they knew that more were coming.
" Shit, sarge, when we gonna get goin'? Been sittin' here for 2 days now. Don't Strickland and the Emperor know what's happenin'?"
" Shut your hole, private. I can't give you any details, but I know that massive reinforcements are on the way. And rumor has it that ViZ is finally gonna show up. When Marbury gets off his keester, Terronian better watch out. ViZ comin' in effectively doubles our strike capabilities, which was almost doubled by VL's AI units from the original force attacking Terr. So we got 'bout 600,000 ground troops from various nations gonna whup some rebel ass."

The zackarothian subs had just been sitting there for two days. " Damnit. Farbanti hasent been doing anything. Its as freaking stalemate.With those other ships comning in its going to be hard. Luckly we have plan. Right now 20 batttleships are coming in. They shall distract the Xerpah forces while we target its biggest ship or aircraft carrier. " said Glen.

Just as he said that 20 battleships appeared over the horizion to combat Xerpahs forces. they would be killed but it was a sacferfice they were willing to make. When they were in range they began to fire. The subs underneath waited until they got the ok.

OOc:ok thanks.

The battleships go on with there barage. It was pretty weak actually. it was ment o distract not to dstory. The 300 subs plus the artagon sought out there first ship. An aircraft carrier wouas a big target for the artagon to tests its drill.

" All sub ready to engage. when we get to close to the carrier i want all frontel subs to move out of the way. Perpare to defend and attack." said Glen as his hear raced. It was time to do our die.

~ The 104th had retreated from the new onslaught of hostiles, landed, refueled, and was in the air once more. Leonardo had been rescued by a valiant destroyer, braving enemy fire to rescue the downed pilot, and even managing to disable a missle frigate in the engagement that followed. The Nueve Italian Battleships had been firing salvo after salvo at the enemy fleet, desperately trying to weaken their forces before an ultimate fight occured between the massive armadas.

The Diavolo Ali were rather silent as they returned to battle. The loss of one of their own brought their numbers down to five. The odds were slowly turning in their favor, but it wasn't worth the life of Giovanna Cambini. Antonio had calmed down, and was now flying with a clear head, but the pain wouldn't go away. Maybe it never will he thought, but it didn't matter now. More people would experience the same fate as her if he and his squadron didn't fight.

" Ok, this is your Captain speaking, all wings with me, it appears that the enemy is engaging the Xeraphian fleet. Let's bring 'em down."

Several affirmative responses came over his comm link as Tony pitched his aircraft down upon a rookie pilot. 20mm cannon fire tore through the enemy plane, and Mustang had the satisfaction of seeing the plane crash into the ocean below. That glee was soon replaced as he saw a NIRAF fighter plummet into yet another Nueve Italian pilot; a Terronian ace following the smoking trail.

" Don't worry Cap, I'm on him."

An F-35C bearing a fireball on its right wing trailed the bandit, released a missile and pulled up. The explosion that followed dropped flaming pieces onto the deck of a Xeraph Carrier below.

" Nice kill, watch the two to your 3 o'clock."

Catalina Ortega, known to her wingman as "Flame," banked quickly to the right and proceeded to hose down the new targets with a quick spray of bullets. One projectile tore through a fighter's cockpit, killing its inhabitant and making the winged weapon dive sharply. The other was blown to pieces as the Captain launched his own attack, letting off an air-to-air missile before breaking left from the erupting inferno~

Losses: 41 Fighters, 2 Cruisers, 4 Destroyers, 11 Frigates

Farbanti was determined to break the stalemate, Terronian Naval power was now in full head on battle with enemy fleets. Ground Forces have been engaging enemy forces and have slowly pushed them back a few miles.

============================
"Okay men, let's go for great justice"! rang out the Marines Captains words as there boats departed the Anphibous Vessels, thousands of them.

The Captain was speaking but, his mens focus was mostly on the low flying aircraft, explosians, and the sounds of Turrets and Missiles.

"Dont waste ammo on the planes, we still have excellant top cover" as he said that a Nueva aircraft fell in the ocean to the right of the boat, taking out another anphibous boat.

The swarm of boats split into 2 groups, some to attack the Nuevan, some for Xeraph, the particuler Captains forces were sent to the Xeraphian ships. Although the mighty swarm of Xraphioan ships had spotted all the boats, there quickness made it impossible to fire there turrets t them, especially when a bigger boat a miles away was pummeling you.

The ship pulled up to the side of the boat, as did many others, the both judging by the size and speed was a small frigate, not worth taking, the ships began placing explosives on the Bulge of the ships, the speed that the boatsa dn ship were going made it difficult, but possible. Once that was done, the boats pulled out to another target, the explosians behind them rocked the ship, it also appeared that others too were succesful, the boats pulled alongside a Destroyer, men from the deck were firing down at them, "Attack!" ran gout the orders, as the marines began crawling the rescue rigging onto the Destroyer.

The battleships keep firing but are getting damaged quickly. They start to move closer as if intending to ram the other ships.

The subs moved closer to the carrier Megalith. Glen palms started to sweat and his adrenline was pupping. " All subs perpare to fire torpedoes at the battleships. I will take out the carrier.Start to charge up the drill and brace your self its going to get rough." he said as he held on tightly. The crew started to quickly charge up the huge drill on the end of the Artagon. " Perpare to engage!!" he said as the ship started to shake.

"Sir! Zackaroth subs off the port bow! "
Admiral Robbins barked a command. " Fire all depth charges! Lay in an evasive course. Prepare for....."
He never got to finish his sentence. The carrier was rocked by several explosions, and it immediately began to list to port.
"Admiral, let's go. She's lost!"
"You go ahead, ensign. I'll be along shortly."
Hornets were burning and slipping off the oil slicked deck into the ocean. A couple of the HCGS's had managed to lift off, but the fires spread too quickly for anything else to be saved.
Robbin's last act was to radio a message to all the Xeraphian vessels in the area. " Attention, Royal Xeraphian naval vessels. Megalith is hit and burning. We're abandoning shhip. Pick up all survivors...........and get the sonsabitches that sank us! Robbins out."
When ha saw that all of the remaining sailors and pilots were off the ship, Admiral Robbins radioed for pickup. As the HCGS hovered the seriously tilted carrier, he climbed up the guy-wire ladder and safely got into the copter.
As he watched the Megalith sink, he vowed revenge........

There was a lull in the fighting on the Terronian front. Both sides were licking their wounds, wondering how long they could hold out. Casualties were running into the thousands, the skeletal remains of tanks were burning all over the rolling hills, sending up plumes of black, oily smoke. The bodies of the dead and wounded littered the battlefield, and pain-filled groans could be heard in the distance.
The Xeraphian MASH units were working feverishly, saving the lives of all those they could, whichever side, and leaving those who were beyond help to die as comfortably as possible.

Cpl. Pliskin, Xeraphian Beta Squad leader, lit a smoke. The hell with keeping a low profile, he thought. They know we're here, and we know where they are. " Hey Joe", Pliskin whispered, " got anymore of that shit that passes for food in your sack?"
Joe looked at Pliskin with disgust. " If you ate less and shot more, asshole, maybe we'd be in Terr's capitol by now, drinkin' wine and gettin' a lap dance."
Joe nonetheless tossed Pliskin an MRE. " Thanks, butthead. A guys gotta keep up his strength, y'know."
A flare went up about a mile away, and they all became aware of an eerie sound. It was sort of a rustling sound, with a faint but persistent metallic 'click'. " What the hell...........?"
In a flash, they were in the camp, swarming over the trenches, almost soundlessly. They kept on coming and coming. There had to be thousands of them. Slowly at first, but growing, was a cheer from the troops as the AI Spiders of Xeraph and the AI Gyros of VerbLuft raced toward the Terronian front lines. Most were armed with 35mm Gatling guns, 90 rounds fired per second. Some had flamethrowers, and a few had things attached to their....arms?feet?.....that no one could identify.
In less than a minute almost a half-million AI troopers passed through the Coalition lines and descended upon the Terronians. They never knew what hit them. The Gatling guns were decimating the Terronians, ripping anything and everything to shreds, so much blood spurting that it looked like a red, misty fog was hanging over the trenches and camps of the rebel troops.
"Corporal, we got a message from Strickland. We're to be part of the mopping-up team when the Spiders are done doing their thing."
Pliskin didn't think that there was gonna be much to mop up...........

Retreat! The orders rang out, Xeraphian Spyder Units were everywhere, Gattling guns were decimating Terronian, they had however prepared best they could, varous holes were cattered around the area, as Sypder Units slipped into them or Xeraphian soldiers used them for cover, small plungers were placed on the front lines, with a quick turn and push, the lines erupted in explosians from the explosives. The reached the sky and the smoldering wreckage of Spyder Units was abound, but more were coming, all they had left for defense was a pitch field, outdated, but deadly, and a Fort, most of the forces on the lines retreated to the Fort, a few soldiers began throwing torches to the ground, trying to find the rumored pitch field, they suceeded, a wave of fire broke out into the landscape killing Xeraphians and Soldiers alike, everyone else retreated for Cruick Fortress.

The General in Charge, Gen Unrue wrote a message to the Xeraphian forces.

"This fortress will not be taken, go back to your own country".

Turrets and defenses surrounded the fortress, plus it was located on the only opening of the mountain ranges that seperated the North West from the west of Terronian, they may have pushed them back but they would give them hell here.
Xeraph
28-05-2005, 17:55
" General, the Spiders did their job. The Terronians are on the run! A full retreat!"
" And the casualties?", Strickland asked.
" Very high, sir. Hard to get an exact number this soon, but we're looking at about 50% AI losses, about 10% human. It appears that theyr'e heading towards one of their forts."
"OK, get hold of the air commanders and the battalion tank commanders. After the Pythons carpet-bomb the area, get the Armored Divisions in there. Follow up with the troops from Auralinia and the Grey Legions. Get hold of Nueve Italia and see if they can contribute land forces. VL has already sent 65,000 AI's and another 50,000 troops with armor. We're going to assault that fort. It lies directly in the path of the route to the Terronian capitol. We need to get through the fort before the big battle."
"Aye sir."


_________________________________________________________________

The order was given for the bombing of the fortress and surronding area. It was a medium-sized target, about 60 acres, abutted by rolling hills and cliffs.
There were many gun and missile emplacements in the forests surrounding the fort, and the fort itself was at the center of a ring of hills.
The initial wave of bombers were going to go in as a wave-pattern. The escorting Cobras and Rattlesnakes were going to have their hands full.
A total of 15 successive waves of bombing runs were to take out the embedded Terronian armor and artillery. Each wave consisted of 6 squadrons of bombers, each squadron comprised of 12 Pythons. Seventy-two bombers per wave, 15 waves. Over a thousand Pythons would be dropping thousands of pounds of ordnance on the Terronians. And then the armor and VL AI's would be right behind the last bomber. Approx 650 MBT's and missile tanks wound form a circular attack on the fortress and it's environs.
The Rattlesnakes would continue to provide support and cover for the action on the ground.
The General sent a personal request to the Emperor. He was requesting reinforcement for the final push to the Terronian capitol......two million men, with full battle-support. It was crunch time.........do or die, it was going to be one hell of a fight.........

Planes flew overhead, luckily Cruick Fortress had an extensive cave and tunnel system in the mountains, so most if the Fort defense were able to hide except the slow moving armor, most of which were pounded by Air power.

The AA emplacements were doing a great job ans shooting bomber, although plenty of bombs were still hitting the fortress, the bombers conctrentrated mostly on the fortress and the various trees that hid the AA guns and missile turrets made it dificult to hit the AA guns

Plane after plane hit the ground, crashing into the forrest below, however Terronian Air Power in the area was light, Farbanti kep most of the Air Defnse Force either in the Battle at Cere;s Ocean, or over on the East Coast watching for the rumored "allies" who hadnt seemed to show up. Farbanti decided if they didint show up, he would send the entire military force on the Xeraphian invaders, they would never be able to repel them.

As the fortress was surrounded by mountains, the bombers seemed to be concreattiung on the gates , so the force could come in, but bombing was made even more difficult as civilians and scattly clothed people were being hered out into the center of the fortress, then a radio transmission let out,

"These people are civilians and Xeraphian POW's, the bombing on this fortress is killing them, civilians and your own men, what kind of a leader kills his own men", after the message there was a lull in bombing.

The Emperor was in a foul mood. The war against Terronian was dragging on and on, with no end in sight. The Coalition...Xeraph, Auralinia, The Grey Legions, The Grey Phoenix, the Black Katanas, Nueve Italia, and Verboten Luftewaffe.....all knew Terronian couldn't win. The Coalition could throw a combined force of hundreds of millions of troops against them, with a foregone result. The problem was that Terronian was part of the same region as ViZion, and Emperor Alaric didn't want to devastate the region.
As he pondered the situation, a message came in from the front.
Alaric scanned the message, and asked his aide, " Who the hell is Lt. Brinker, and why is he sending me a message out of the loop?"
" He's apparently one of the Stealth Team leaders. You know that they have 24/7 access to you....by your own order."
Ah yes, the Stealth Team, Alaric thought. An interesting cross-section of humans, vampires, and aliens, all extremely adept at virtual invisibility. There were only three teams, each team having only 15 members. But their record was right at 100%........zero failure rate.
" Mr. Phipps, have Lt. Brinker transbeamed here ASAP. We have much to discuss."

OOC: Sorry I haven't posted in awhile (schoolwork, random vacations, the like)

~ The 11th Vestaglies Neres had assembled onboard the Salvatore's command deck, and were awaiting orders from Admiral Perriggio as the ship shuddered slightly once again.

" Report," mumbled the aged commander, barely noticing the slight shift of his ship's weight.

A tech officer looked up from her station in order to fill in her superior.

" Missile strike off the port side, nothing too serious, sir."

" Good. . .good. Major Solle, have your men at ease."

The 11th relaxed for a moment as their commander stepped forward. Major Fidellio Solle knew what he was about to be asked to do. His squad was the most elite force of combatants in all of Nueve Italia. Assasinations, demolitions, scouting, data retrieval, spying, whatever: they did it all. The 11th Guard of the Vestaglies Neres, or the "White Eyes," as they were known as, were the elite Spec Ops. group of Nueve Italia. It was by one of their daring attacks that the Nueve Italian Civil War was brought to an abrupt end. Casually, the Major questioned the Commander of the Nueve Italian BattleForce in the area.

" Well. . .what do you ask of me?"

" You know very well what we need done, Major. We're going to be landing soon, and we want to end this as soon as possible. Enough soldiers have already died, and I don't want to lose anymore on a ground assault."

" Kill him, sir?"

" No. We want Farbanti alive. He is a criminal, and shall be brought to court as such. Crimes against humanity do not deserve the bliss of death as a punishment."

" Yessir. When do we move out?"

" As soon as we break through this fleet. I'm putting you in charge of this personally."

Saluting the Admiral, Fidellio turned around and motioned for his squadron to head below. They would wait until they were called once more, and then, they could end this battle too. . .
_____

Outside of the hull of the Salvatore, not all was calm and quiet. Explosions, gunfire, rockets eating up fuel, planes slamming into the ocean, all of this created a scene of chaos unlike any the NIIN had ever seen, and yet, they fought on. The Terronian Fleet was beginning to weaken slightly as more and more ships joined Tabolov, and the Nueve Italian Battleships continued their barrage against the armada before them. The air battle had turned fierce, as NIRAF fighters dive bombed enemy ships; releasing their weapons and pulling up at the last moment, only to turn and see a chain of orange blossoms forming on the deck of their target. One eager pilot made such a run, but took a 20mm round into his tail. Losing control, the airman rammed his fighter into a Terronian battleships, destroying the sea beast along with his own life. The 104th Squadron had succeeded in reorganizing their forces and fought back with such ferocity that even their allies were shocked. Throughout all their losses, the Nueve Italians continued fighting, continued killing. It was as though this was all they lived for. In the cockpit of his AE-7 Furfante, Cpt. Antonio Gori viewed the water below. It had been set ablaze by a fire that barely skimmed a ship leaking oil, and indeed, the very sea itself was now a raging inferno. Sighing, he dived again, back into the battle, back into the maw of death~

Muyammar Farbanti, scourge of Terronian, haha, he laughed when he read these reports from the news agencys in the North West, the area under control of the Allies. He was reading some sattilite info and statitics from the front.

Behind him a few of his Generals were twitching there thumbs, nervously looking from one another, one of the Generals, a Farbanti coudnt remember, there was something wrong about him, Farbanti walked over to him.

"What is your name", he commanded, his eye scanning him.

He looked nervous, "Brigadier General Damoin Petrakova, sir".

Farbanti noticed sweat from his forehead, he grinned wearily. He put to and to togethor, a spy, he was sure of it. But, a true spy never looks alone, he noticed another General, he had never noticed. He beconed to him to come over, he too had a sweat. He looked back at Petrakova, "Are you loyal to me" he asked.

"Yes sir", the man said. "Really, becuase I think your lieing, Xeraphian, arent you, or possibly, Nuevin, hmm, were are you from?" Farbanti had a glee smirk on his face.

The man eyes looked sunken, "Comberth sir, Comberth Terronian, I lived right by the harbor, right were the Aeger fleet was located".

"You are trained well, good lie, good lie, want to prove your loyal, shoot him", he pointed at the other General. The man hesitated, "I cant fire upon a fellow Terronian", the man said. "Its becuase your Xeraphian, both of you!", said Farbanti, as he did, a pistol whipped out of his belt, aimed at them. His Generals too raised there weapons, bu to his surprise, at him.

"What in hell are you doing!", Farbanti screamed.

"We arent watching our nation dwindle anymore, were surrendering to the allies, whether your in or not, your being tried for treason to our country, and war crimes against the Xeraphian,s and many other nations want a piece of you, I will never forgive myself for betraying Dimitri." said a General

"General Rex Glaskow, I will have your head, GUARDS!", as he said that, 14 guard rushed in, all armed and began firing, the lights went out, bullet shots rang, then stopped, the lights came on. The 2 Xeraphian were in the side of the room, ones arm was bleeding horribly, the guards were dead excepr for 2, on the ground beggin for mercy, 3 Generals were dead, and in the middle of the room, bullet hole in the head, layed Farbanti dead.

"Shit, must have got hit in the crossfire, we wanted him alive", said a Xeraphian soldier.

Rex Glaskow turned to them, thanks, if it hadnt been for you, we would never have dared revolted, we can turn Terronian back to what it was now, what is your name?" he asked.

"Lt Brinker", he said.

"Well under Terronian law i am required to lock you in a federal prison, dont worry, we get the military on stand down, and we call your nation, your free to go.", as he attempted to herd him, they tiltd there guns.

The men in the room aimed there guns at the Xeraphians.

"There is no reason for you to die, trust us", said Glaskow.

The 2 nodded and accepted custody, almost at the snap of a finger morse code was being sent to military fortifications, the war was over, and to the allies of Farbanti's demise.

"Now we can rebuild and start a new." said a General.

Everything was perfect, things should have been back to normal, but they werent, not at all, they didint know how bad things were to become.

~ Immediately, radio chatter went out to the entire NIIN and all of its fighters everywhere.

" All combatants, return to your assigned task fleet immediately, repeat, return to your task fleet. All units are ordered to disengage from battle now."

Puzzled, Cpt. Gori let his plane drift above the cloud cover, where the rest of the NIRAF was waiting for him.

" What's going on? Who gave that order?"

A rookie pilot flying towards the back of the formation answered his commander's query.

" Admiral Perriggio, sir. It appears that the Terronian dictator has been killed, and his forces are in disarray. We've been ordered to retreat and land at our respective carriers."

" . . .Have those forces still loyal to Farbanti given in?"

" We. . .we don't know, sir."

zackaroth forces were all ready moving torwards the eastern seaboard. Groups of 50 men were coming from two carriers but as soon as there were about to send a message the Xeprah yelling came across the radio. " they killed Farbanti. They killed him. The mission is failed. You have been given a new mission. Help the xerphan forces clear out any rebels that are still around. Good luck." the radio went out.

The group was made out of atleast 100-150 men. More were on there way but it would take some time since the others were just leaving. This group though were called the Minior Elites. Zackaroth had divided there military into two groups. The minior elites wore gasmasks and look intimating. Some carried auto-shotguns and others with either sniper rifles or Ak-47s. they were meant to clear out an area fast and brutally. They were also made to protect groups of people or a person. They would be there in a few minutes.

Prince Vlad rushed into Alaric's study. "Alaric.............we have an unconfirmed report that Farbanti's dead! Killed in the cross-fire of a shoot-out in the traitor's inner sanctum!"
Alaric was up and running in a split second. " Was it the Stealth Team?"
"Apparently. Brinker and two other ST members were posing as advisors, and as soon as Farbanti figured out that something was amiss, all hell broke loose. Two of the three ST's are dead, Brinker was wounded, but is alive."
" Get hold of our Coalition Allies. They must be informed. We have to continue the war, but our goals have to change at this point. We have to become an occupation force, ferreting out the die-hard Farbanti supporters, and begin restoring order to Terronian. Tabolov will be in grave danger. He has to be protected from assassination and returned to head up the government as soon as it's safe." Alaric paused for a second. " Let's propose this to the Coalition. Each of the nations fighting against Farbanti will be given a section of the Terronian territory to occupy. We'll broadcast a general amnesty for all Terronian military who throw down their arms and pledge loyalty to the rightful government, headed by Tabolov. Oh, and get word to the Stealth Team........I want Farbanti's body secured as proof of his death. Got it?"
" Got it........"

Alaric stared coldly at the body of the traitor, Farbanti. This punk had been the cause of much death and destruction, on both sides of the war.
The occupation forces of the Coalition were still in place, as Tabolov had not yet returned to the capitol. There was a cease-fire in effect, but it was an uneasy truce that prevailed. Renegade Fabranti supporters were still running loose in the mountains, waging a guerrilla war upon the occupation forces.
And still ViZion had not made an appearence of any kind. There must be something serious going on in ViZion City. There was a virtual lock-down of communication in and out of the city.
Coalition armies were in complete control of all Terronian CommCenters and military installations, and the Terronian Navy had all gone over to Tabolov. All that remained was to get Tabolov to the capitol..........

"M'lord, a message from the Emperor."
Ricala swiveled in his chair. " On audio, captain."
The voice of Emperor Alaric Tan'it filled the room. " M'lord Ricala, inform all Xeraphian/Coalition forces that Tabolov has returned to Terronian and is assuming control of the nation. In 30 days time, I want all Xeraphian military save 2500 troopers, 50 MBT's and an AirWing re-assigned to Xeraphian territory for a 30 day furlough. Send a "well-done" to all Coalition Allies. Keep tabs on Tabolov's progress via OSS-1. Suggest to the Coalition Allies that a similar occupation force be left in Terronian until at which time a full pullout can be accomplished. Alaric out."
So, there it is, Ricala thought. The price of civil war was a high one, but what price can one put on freedom?

Almost a year had elapsed since Farbanti's War, the allies kept a small force inside the country, but other then that, Terronian was free. Small rebel bands who had been treated well under Farbanti still attacked occasionally, but none were succesful. But all was to change.....

A fat officer watched the blinking lights and reports of his module, watching the sattilites in space via his feed was always boring, nothing to look at esxcept orbiting blips, why they even had this station was amazing to him, monitering Earths orbit, he always scoffed at it, his eyes were beginning to shut ready to take a nap whne his eyes noticed a small red blip, one he had never noticed before. He quickly looked at his manual, then his eyes grew big.

"The, the SOLG, it cant be, it was destroyed, oh this cant... he was silenced by another small bleep which seemed to have come from the SOLGs, the data on his module said a missile, but a big one. "Oh Shit", he said as he ran off to tell his superiors.

*30 minutes later* "And where is this missile heading.

"Well sir, theres been 2 reported now, one heading to, *pause* Xeraph, and the other...Vizion.
