Vamperial Colony of Union
Northern Union, Mav'vax City, Capital of Northern Union
At a Cafe
Around Midday

It was Rathma's final day of leave as he wandered through the streets of Mav'vax City. It was a fantastic city that wasn't subjected during the Union Uprising in 2005 due to the fact that Vamp's Private Military Force broke out and smashed their lines. That was embrassing to see that happen when you forced to the rear lines due to a misunderstanding. Nevertheless, Rathma wanted to forget about the Union Uprising and focused on the current situation.

A new mafia boss had started to take control of the Southern Capital of Chan'vax City. To make matters even worse, they formed the largest non-government militia in Lynion History. The last Militia was under the direct command of Rathma Phoenix and that numbered to around 400,000 men. This new militia could well be in the millions and if they weren't careful, it could simply take Northern Union. The new mafia was under the command of Big Joe who was the son of Fat Tony (nephew to Black Daniel, original Mafia Boss). Unlike his father Fat Tony, Big Joe was very fit and had plently of combat experience. He earned 'Big' due to the fact, he was around 6 foot 7 and made everyone else feel like a shrimp. The new mafia controlled every possible income it could get it hands onto. From drug trafficing, to slavery, illegal strong alochoical distrubtion and even arms dealing was a point of income for them.

This didn't bother Rathma much if it weren't for the fact his brother, Blackett, was fighting on the frontlines as a Vamperial Ranger in the army. Rathma noticed a familiar face he recongised sitting in the corner of the cafe as he brought himself a drink. He didn't had to see his face but he knew somehow the person was going to have his answer.

"I must be lucky or something," the man said to himself as he watched Rathma sit down opposite of him.

"It's getting rarer to see Vamperial Master's or Knights on the battlefield these days," replied Rathma. "Somehow, I wander why Vamperial Master Revan is here,"

"We know the Vamperial Order doesn't want to see capable officers become KIA in Union," pointed out Revan. "The world has become more violent than usual. Nevertheless, how can we fight somewhere in the world where our home is still ravaeged by war?" questioned Revan as he removed his slouch hat and exposed a face with a few implants on his face.

"I presume you purposing that we unifiy Union ourselves?" Rathma asked him as he sipped his ginger beer.

"You know we could be court martial for this?" Revan asked Rathma as he sipped his drink.

"We could get away if we succeed," pointed out Rathma. "If we're going to pull it off, we'll require Vamperial Military Forces be used for the operation or maybe allied troops that we can aquire," stated Rathma knowing what he did during the Union Uprising.

"That can be arranged," smiled Revan as he leaned back in his chair. "We'll request allied help for further operations in Union under the command of..." Revan suddenly stopped as he realised that they didn't have a commander. "Whose going to be the commander?" Revan asked Rathma.

"Let's see," started Rathma as he drank his ginger beer. "How about you become commander since your a brilliant commander?"

"Good idea," smiled Revan. "Besides, everyone knows you hate desk jobs," he joked as the pair toasted to the finally unification of Union.

In recent times in the Vamperial Kingdom, we have once again come under strife in the Vamperial Colony of Union. Right now, as you read this, we are suffering a hard long year of a stalemate with either side able to overcome the other. However, recently I have gathered capable officers and we required a combination of Vamperial Forces and friendly forces able and willing to start a second front in order to end the stalemate. I require the extra forces to avoid suspecion from our commanders.

If you wish to aid us, please send an encryption back to myself.


OOC:

I don't want Union changing hands, just the introduction of Revan and the Unification of Union. If none reply, I'll take this as a story instead. That's why it's Semi-Open and it's limited to 5 nations at the most.

Vamperial Master Revan had a different attitude towards the Knights and Guardians within the Vamperial Order. Unlike the others, Revan was able to gather hundreds of keen Knights and Guardians to a cause. Revan could inspire his troops when they were forced to face overwhelming odds at any time. This proved to be of use to him.

Revan and Rathma were war heroes in the Vamperial Military mainly during the Pirate Wars, Fungi Extinction and a handful of International Conflicts that required military support. Even though the pair never worked side by side, it was actually consider they were close friends. This, the status they had throughout the Vamperial Kingdom and the fact hundreds of soldiers would flock to their cause would give them the chance to unified Union under the objection from the Vamperial Order.

At first they only expected a few hundred to answer their call for aid within the Vamperial Military. However, thousands of troops, officers, Knight's and Guardian's answered the call to the unification of Union. Rathma was astonished to find their outpost was overflowing with soldiers and officers.

"I'm going to have to be honest with you mate," started Rathma as he rubbed his left cheek for a moment. "I wasn't expecting so many so soon," he stated as Revan turned to him. "How are we going to deal with this...this... over whelming number of troops?"

"Cricky," whispered Revan as he smiled at Rathma. "The outpost won't manage this men much longer," pointed out Revan as he was still surprised at the amount of men that answered the call. "I heard during one of the briefing's that there's a fortress that hasn't being subject along the frontline somewhere. That'll be our first target," smiled Revan as he nodded for a moment as the pair laughed for a moment.

Revan and Rathma glanced about for a moment before they started to walk through the lines of tents and sentries on duty. Several nodded or saluted to them in acceptance of their position. Rathma started to remember his times as the militia commander during the Union Uprising. He was going to use that experience to help Revan unifiy Union. Rathma smiled as several of the men recongised him and a handful were from the original Mafia Militia. The mood was silent as the soldiers, officers, Knight's and Guardian's watched and saluted the pair as they walked further into the outpost. Rathma turned to Revan as they reached the structure that was built for the last commanders of the outpost and Revan turned to face the men.

"For too long has Union stayed unstable," shouted Revan as the men gave Revan their full attention. "We have faced a stalemate that has lasted longer than what was predicted. For this, we have left so many to suffer for our stupidity. As we speak thousands of youths are having their lives thrown away just so they can get their fix for the day," contiuned Revan as the men were in silence and listened to him with care. "We will fight and together, we will unite Union as one colony and just for sake of it..." Revan suddenly stopped for a moment. "...We'll send the mafia back to hell!" finished Revan as the men started to shout and cheer for Revan.

"Revan!" was the name that was chanted throughout the outpost.

"As our first act, we're going to sack the City of York and conquer Fort Marlow," stated Revan.

Rathma glanced at the crowd and smiled as they started to calm down for a moment as a group of soldiers appeared to be coming towards them. At first he couldn't make them out but as they came closer, it was the last thing he expected. Rathma knew he faced a Court Martial if something went wrong but this just took the cake.

"What makes you think you won't let us come?" asked Vamperial Knight David Longshanks as the rest of his squad formed up behind him while Rathma went over to them. "We formed this squad, we fought together and we'll unite Union together," stated Longshanks as Jaxson and the others nodded their heads in agreement.

"And we'll get Court Martial together if we're not careful," stated Rathma firmly as he didn't expect them to follow his lead.

"So that's it eh?" questioned Longshanks. "The boys won't take any other commander but you boss. Besides, your going to need some nut cases to do the insane jobs one day and I know you'll want us,"

That was true what Longshanks said. Rathma always perferred his squad to do the job and he was always their commander. It would only be fair that they went through this operation together as one unit.

"Well, stuff Court Martial's," laughed Rathma slightly. "Gather the officers together, Revan has a plan and we need the officers to pull this stunt off," ended Rathma as he stood by Revan as the sun slowly started to go down as another day ended. If there was one thing the soldiers knew, always get as much sleep as possible. Because when the fighting starts, some go 3 days without sleeping more than 3 hours at a time. Revan looked about as he nodded his head as several officers, Knight's and Guardians started to move towards them looking for orders.

"We're going for our first operation in this war and we're going to pull it off," started Revan as he looked around at his sub-commanders and Rathma as they had gathered around a table. "Our first course of action is to take Fort Marlow, City of York and the Port Town of Reril," stated Revan as he pointed to the three key locations on the hologram map. "Fort Marlow is going to be difficult to capture since the City of York and the Port Town of Reril give supplies to the fortress inculding reinforcements. The main point of interest besides the fortress is the port," pointed out Revan as it showed several coastal guns across the port's entrances. "I have a confirmed report and reply that the 1st Vamperial Carrier Fleet is located off shore from Union but won't be able to attack due to the coastal weapons and the AA shore batteries," The position of the 1st Vamperial 'Dingo' Carrier Fleet appeared on screen. "Therefore, we'll be conducting the attack during the dead of the night. Once Reril has being taken, the Carrier Fleet will begin landings of armour battalions and infatry while conducting a heavy barrage of artillery fire on the fortress. By this time, the other half of our forces would've stormed York," contiuned Revan. "Once York and Reril is ours, we'll seige the fortress before storming the fort itself. Any questions at this time?"

"What support will the 1st Vamperial Carrier Fleet be suppling for us?" asked one of the officers.

"142 Dingo Fighter Jets and 76 Hunter Fighter Bombers. They have four carriers in the task force with plenty of naval power," answered Revan showing the status on the 1st Vamperial 'Dingo' Carrier Fleet in more detail.

"So air support will be on standby once Reril has being taken?" asked another.

"Correct," answered Revan with a smile as he knew these officers were eager for information. "We'll have reinforcements on standby for us after the coastal batteries have being subjected. Anymore questions?" he asked. Revan waited for a few moments before nodding his head. "I wish everyone luck and we will see this operation be conducted with success," concluded Revan as he dismissed the officers as he went with Rathma for a moment.

OOC: Whereabouts is Union located?

OOC:

This might sound a bit wacko but it's a rough idea.

For now, in my books, North America and South America don't exist. In there place, you have the Lynion Islands located where America, Canada and Alaska were.

Then heading south where South America should (but doesn't), is Union. Union is a combination of America (not including Alaska & Hawaii) and Brazil when it comes to climate and sources of minerals and other stuff. Union is about the siz of Brazil and America put togther.

It's a basic idea where they would exist in the real world.

It just strucked 2154 hours when Revan, Rathma, Jaxson, David and Daniel silently lay in the small bushes as they watched the bright port below them start to fall asleep. The only lights were coming from street lights and office buildings that were safe from the far off fighting...or so they thought. Reril was a quiet port town located about 76 kilometres from Fort Marlow and 95 kilometres from York. The goal of the five officers was to take out the power generator's and block communications.

For Revan, this is what he spent the 30 years with the Gurkha's when he couldn't be taught anymore from the Black Assassin's (Elite Lynion Spec Ops). It was against the wishes of the Vamperial Order and it was rare for an outsider to be accepted into the Gurkha's. It wasn't easy being accepted into a Gurkha's Rifle Brigade and in the end, it took him three goes to be accepted into the Gurkha's. Then he went through 30 years working and fighting alongside the Gurkha's before leaving and returning to Lynion. His experience however gave him an idea to form a league off the Black Assassin's to create a Spec Ops similar to the structure of the Gurkha's.

Revan glanced about for a moment as the group of five came through the bushes and located their objective. They were overlooking a small road running alongside the power station when two trucks pass by the station before another stopped and unloaded two guards before driving off. Revan gave some simple hand signal's as the other four silently seperated themselves from each other.

'What a wonderful sight,' thought Revan to himself as he counted six guards with a few flood lights shinning in any direction. Revan gave the signal to move forward quietly as the group picked their targets and started to move carefully and slowly towards them with care and stealth.

The night was quiet as the skies were clear and a full moon started to climb to its peek with the guidence of stars. Revan on the other hand was hiding behind an oak tree and silently slit one of the guards thoart apart with his combat knife. The body fell into his arms as he carefully placed into the bushes before heading along in the bushes. He could see from his position that the others had picked off their targets and Cornith slipped through the gates. Cornith was the demolition expert in the group and ever since he was 12, he had a passion for explosive works. He would slip out of school to watch demolitions happen in the city or create his own bombs to remove thick bushes on his uncle's farm.

For Cornith, it was his passion that he loved. He carefully placed the C4 chargers around the power station before giving the thumbs up to Revan. He looked around as he just gave one signal.

RUN!

Revan didn't need to be told twice as he dashed back to their former position as the C4 chargers were primed for ten minutes. It was more than enough time for the raiders to move quickly back. Revan turned back to watch the power station eruppted into a massive fireball as explosion after explosion went off in the power station. He turned and watched as the Communications Tower and the power went down. Emergency generators collasped on the stress of the high demand for power. The city was thrown into chaos as Rathma turned to watch Revan Force stream down the hills and stormed York and Reril with speed and aggression. No quarter was expected for either side. But something else was lurking for them in Reirl.


OOC: Sorry for posting late. People are welcome to join if they wish but I don't want Union changing sides. Just send a Telegram to Revan about joining the war.

1st Vamperial 'Dingo' Carrier Battle Fleet
Off the Coast of Union, Port City of Reril
2201 Hours

The 1st Vamperial 'Dingo' Carrer Battle Fleet was the most experienced and had elite skills to form the only elite naval force in the Vamperial Navy. They were stationed off Union and watching Reril as the sight of the lights going out suddenly happened. For Admiral Mick, this was the signal they were expecting and waiting.

"All pilots to your battle stations," was repeated over the intercom as the pilots were suddenly woken from their slumber.

Among them was Flight Lieutenant Matthew 'Matt' King of the House of Spades Squadron. He was among the elite and the best in the entire Vamperial Air Force. He was hand picked from hundreds that attempted to apply for the position. It was only Matt and another pilot that was picked from that year group and the others were asked to attempt the following year.

When Matt arrived in the hanger, he was in full combat uniform as he took his helmet and jumped into his Dingo Fighter Jet. Unlike other pilots, he perferred the Dingo over the Sonic Fighter Jet because he favoured manoavability, speed and weapon systems. When he climbed in, the jet was towed to an elevator on the opposite side of the carrier. Matt strapped himself into the seat as he caught a glimpse of the photo he had of himself hugging Zora when they were last together. He took a deep breath as the jet came onto the carrier.

'I love the night sky,' he thought to himself for a moment as a flight of Hunters roared overhead.

He bought everything online as the twin jet engines roared to life. Matthew started to take off quickly as another flight of Hunters came over them. He wasn't scared or afaird of what might happen as he took off from the carrier. He took a deep breathe as he took the photo, he kissed it gently as the memories of Zora came through his mind.

"All fighters form battle formation," ordered Wing Commander Oslo over the intercom.

Matthew formed up alongside several Dingo's as the sight of the city suddenly changed from being peacefully to explosions eruppting all across the cities. Buildings were burning, flares marked positions of various units but you didn't need night vision to notice that the mafia were being encircled around the main town centre.

"Alright, let's join the party," said one of the pilots.

"Matt, go first," ordered Oslo as Matt simply obeyed.

Matt's Dingo made a screeching noise as he dived forward as a flight of Hunters strafied a number of mafia positions before bombing a few bunkers around the city. He aimed it steadily as he fired two missiles at the Town Centre. The missiles rushed forward quickly as one hit the tower on the Town Centre and the second blowing the left wing of the roof apart. The missile attacks were followed with napalm as a squadron of Hunters attempted to burn the Town Centre apart. It would also be used as a becon for the ground troops to move towards.

"Nicely done," said Oslo as he watched a wall of napalm burn across the Town Centre.

"Our tank battalions are landing in the port sir," reported in a voice as Matthew strafied a mafia position.

"Have the pilots start taking out military installation. Anyword on our boys down there?" Oslo ordered.

"Err...let me check..." replied the voice. "They've taken 3 out of 4 of their objectives with resistance trying to break out,"

"Get a couple of Hurricane Gunships to start their attack runs against the mafia positions," ordered Oslo. "Ten of Spades, take a squadron of Dingo's, Hunters and a Hurricane gunship to give support for our boys in York," ordered Oslo.

"Copy that sir," replied Matt. "43rd Squadron, follow my lead," ordered Matt as he lead his squadron towards York.

RVN AA Swatter Cruiser Sky Commander
Inside the harbour of the Port Town of Reirl
2314 Hours

Captain Harkson picked up his field glasses and started to watch the explosions erupt across the town. He started to nod quietly to himself as something appeared on radar but weakly at first. For the captain, he put the thought aside as the AA missile systems shot down a number of Mafia MiG Gunships attempting to give support to the mafia forces.

"Skipper, we got something on radar but we're having no response from the ship itself," reported in 1st Lieutenant Hawk as Harkson looked at him.

"Could be a forign ship," replied Harkson as he watched a AC-130 Hurricane class gunship open fire on mafia positions.

"Actually sir..." started Hawk. "It's a civilian cruise ship just sitting there sir..."

"Sir, we got something else on radar," shouted an operator.

Harkson walked past Hawk and came beside the operator as he studied the radar for a moment. Sure enough, another ship had just come out of no where on radar. He looked up for a moment before taking his field glasses and looked in the correct position. Unlike the other cruise ship, this one had lights all across every mast and every position a light could be held. He thought about it for a moment. His answer came before him as a number of small explosions erupted before a vastly large explosion consumed the cruise ship forcing it to sink rapidly into the ocean.

"Hawk, dispatch a boarding party to investigate the last cruise ship," ordered Harkson. "Sparky, inform Admiral Kennedy, we got cruise ships about to explode,"

"Will do sir," replied Sparky.

1/2 Hour later....

Lieutenant Edwards checked his XM8 assault rifle as he looked back at the other 11 operatives getting ready to board the cruise ship. There was little talk as the speed boat swiftly went across the waters towards the cruise ship. The Hunters were the equialivant to Marines but had more roles and more were expected from them. Especially when it came to boarding unknown ships in the middle of the ocean or in ports. For this squad, it was another day at the office.

"Jack Squad will secure the bridge, rest of you, we got orders to secure every inch of this ship. Keep your eyes peel, expect Mafia Forces onboard and keep an eye out for civilians who might be in the crossfire," ordered Edwards as the others checked their XM8's.

The boat came across the starboard side of the ship as they fired grappling hooks onto the rails. Edwards was the first to start climbing up the side of the ship while the others followed closely behind them. As they climbed up, they noticed the port holes were covered in thick black tape that stopped light from being seen in the room. Edwards put the thought aside as he climbed onto the deck and turned his night vision goggles on. The night was filled with the crack of gunfire in every direction.

"Split up boys," ordered Edwards.

Lieutenant Edwards took his squad to the side of the ship as they found one of the doors bolted shut. Edwards gave a signal for the door to be blown open which was simply down. The explosions gave off a bang as the door was opened and the squad quickly stepped inside. They checked all along the corridor as they noticed every single door was bolted shut but allowed water to get inside.

"No sign of life sir," came a voice over the headset radio.

"Take it easy and secure the bridge. Also look for any signs of the crew," ordered Edwards.

"Err..." started a voice as the sound of somebody throwing up could be heard.

"Everything alright over there?" Edwards ask as he waited for the Hunter in front of him to open the next door.

"Sir...we found the crew..." the voice started. "But...well...their body parts aren't together,"

"What do you mean?" Edwards asked as the door was blown opened.

"Well..." the voice tried to explain. "It reminds me of those stories we heard as kids about the Holocaust that happened in WW2 by the Germans. But... on a much insane scale,"

"Cap, I just found the guests," started the man in front of him as he looked up.

"Bloody hell..." muttered Edwards.

Edwards stepped through as he looked up towards the roof. All across the roof, hundreds of bodies were hanging off butcher hooks. Blood had covered the walls and the floor was drenched in blood. Across the floor, bodies and heads were all over the place as it was a clear sign the hooks weren't meant to last long.

"Lieutenant, I need a report," ordered Captain Harkson. "Where's everyone?"

"The crew has being butchered and their parts are all across the bridge," replied the voice on the bridge.

"I found the guests," replied Edwards as he dodged a falling body that splatted into a bits and pieces. "The mafia has hanged them all on butcher hooks and hang them off the roof,"

"Edwards, check out the cabins and see if there are any survivours," ordered Harkson as Edwards squad headed towards the guest section of the cruise ship.

"Sir, we checked out a couple," replied the voice of the other Hunter Squad. "They managed to pack in around 20 to 30 bodies into the cabins some might even have close to 75. All the bodies have hooks in the necks and we noticed a number of them were suffering from a painful death. I don't think they were meant to have lasted long,"

"So some of these cabins have people still alive then?" questioned Harkson voice. Edwards had opened up a cabin and turned the light on as a number of the people inside gave their attention to them. A handful of bodies were on the ground and rotting.

"That's positive sir," replied Edwards. "I don't know what we can do for them sir,"

"If we take them off, they'll die and if we leave them on, they'll die as well," said a Hunter's voice.

"A bugger of a way to do a war," muttered Harkson voice over the radio. "Secure all sections of the ship and defuse any bombs onboard," he ordered. "Any mafia, kill them on sight,"


OOC:

Hurricane Gunship is the equalivant to an AC-130 Gunship

http://www.af.mil/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=71

20 kilometres from Fort Marlow
Yorkian Forest
0212 Hours

"Just got off the radio from the forward position in York," started Rathma as Revan was watching Fort Marlow from the safety from the covering of the forest. "They've secured York,"

"Good," replied with a wide grin Revan as he watched several floodlights on the fort came alive. "Reirl has already fallen and the armour battalions are moving forward,"

It was rather quiet watching Fort Marlow suddenlying coming alive as a number of trucks and jeeps started to leave the main gate. They went over the fort a couple of times before a number of Hunter's dropped napalm rockets across the fort. The burning liquid flames didn't harm the fort but it still left a number of things to think about.

"Storming it will inflict too many deaths on there's and ours," started Revan as he sat back and gave out a sigh. "By now, they would've pulled any forces back into the fort and are starting to set ambushes for us..." Revan just suddenly stopped and looked at Rathma.

"I like where this is going," grinned Rathma with a big smile as Revan ordered the siganlmen to come forward.

"Wolverine, this is Alpha Zulu issue Hot Potato 3," ordered Revan.

Over the skies

"I repeat, issue Hot Potato 3 on Objective Hutson," came Revan's voice over the intercom as Matt pulled up his Dingo over York.

"Oh baby, I just love Hot Potato's," started another pilot.

"I just wanna be out of there before the explosion rips us into the fort," replied Oslo as he came up behind Matt.

"Cheer up mate," said one of the pilots as Matt felt suddenly nervous.

"10 of Spades, make sure you don't fall behind before it pulls everything into the fort," stated Oslo.

"Sure sir," replied Matt nervously.

There was no way they could make Matt feel relax as the squadron formed a protective formation across the Cyclonic Bomber. Oslo remembered going through his first Hot Potato. It bought a shiver down his spine as they broke formation with the Cyclonic Bomber before it came within striking distance of the fort. Matt kept the grip on the controls steady as he watched the bomber for a moment. It dropped an Extremely High Bunker Buster Missile which was one of three courses for the fort. Matt turned the Dingo sharply away from the fort as the missile exploded on impact. The fort was violently shaken at its foundations before a large part of the roof collasped into the fort. The explosion would've being blinding and deafen as the bomber let off a number of Stun Bombs that were dropped into the fort.

"So what's next?" Matthew asked nervously.

"Main course and dessert," replied Oslo.

Matt watched the bomber again drop a high power napalm missile directly into the hole that was created by the first missile. The mood was silent as they watched the fort become a flaming torch. It reminded Matt of August 15th. Auguest 15th was the day they remembered their soldiers. It was also the first attempt of an invasion that was repel by the Lynion's. He looked away for a moment as he turned off his radio and started to have a moment for himself. Matt turned his Dingo around as he watched the last missile be dropped by another bomber. He turned the radio on to hear Oslo talking.

"...We got a confirmed report boys," started Oslo. "The mafia are in retreat all over the area. Don't worry about charging after them, we'll let them run into the deserts and perish," ordered Oslo. "The day is our boys," he concluded as Matt cupped his head for a moment and headed back to the carrier.

OOC: If you still want, I'd be willing to participate, once I do more than a glance over.

OOC: That's cool! Revan and Rathma have only started their campagin and nothing much has happened except with the captures of Reirl, York and Fort Marlow.
