Operation Morning Sun (IC)

[crazydawg444]

The date was June 6, 2012. An unidentified flying object landed in Washington D.C. In the U.F.O. was a strange alien race. They called themselves the Lyrans, they were highly intelligent. Their leader was named Leer. They had blueish skin, cat eyes, no nose, long fingers, and wore long robes. They met the president of the U.S.A and became friends of the country. They visited other countries and none hated them. They helped in advancements in technology most thought impossible. Humanity had space ships, laser guns, and armour that seemed undestructable. Some thought it was strange they were giving us weaponsand armour but none thought that much of it. In August, they changed. They attacked people and took over the planet. Most of humanity fought back, but others seeked refuge in space. They escaped on ships given to them by the Lyrans. The others who stayed to fight did so until November when they were overpowered. They left on more ships and tryed to make a plan. No one could have guessed what happened next. The Lyrans came to Earth once before. They talked to the ancient, primitive humans like the Mayans. It was said that December 21, 2012 they world would end. And on that exact date the Lyrans used there version of a nuclear missile on the planet. The surface was turned to ash, and rubble. Now the human race has to fight to survive in there space station homes. A new military has been made called the Orbital Union. The flag ship is the 01 Peacemaker, and now, after 59 years, it is time to take Earth back. Operation Morning Sun has began

You are in the Orbital Union, you are a soldier assigned to the T1 Eternal Space Craft. Good Luck soldier, you will need it

She was gathering her things, when she got word that shewould be moving ships. She packed more franticly, and she mumbled under her breatj.

The rev and humming of the Eternal was enough to make Kenneth nervous, in his bones he knew that this would be the start of a long struggle against the Lyrans. Thoughts flickering to fresh wood to the fire within him, watching the world he loved erupt in flames had ignited his passion to see things made right, but not made Kenneth reckless or blind. Pacing down the metal corridor he remembered the faces of those young soldiers who didn't last through the initial fighting. Gathering himself, Kenneth found a pen and opened his notebook, for the next couple of hours he would occupy himself while the initial preparations of the Eternal by writing a heartfelt letter to each of those young men and women's families. Kenneth knew this was the least he could do, and felt sorrow at the massive loss of human life as the planet had ignited. In that moment, Kenneth stayed composed. Now that he was alone, he wrote as far as Mr. and Mrs. Johnson I regret to inform you, before a single tear, the only tear that could escape his iron will, graced his cheek.

After the letters were finished, Kenneth went up to observations, looking over reports and checking scans for Lyran activity. Everything seemed to have a heartbeat, the slow soft but steady chirp of the radars, the buzz of the computers, even the dripping of the coffee machine all seemed to have a living rhythm to it. As far as Lyran readings go, things were calm for the moment, so Kenneth looked out the window into the space beyond, trying to put the memory of their devilish beady feral eyes and their blue skin. What he saw then astounded him and will remain one of his favorite memories for the rest of this war, a green nebula in the shape of a young girl, maybe six or seven. A reminder to him of what was at stake, and why this mission was important after all. It was about the children, the future and that we may secure for them a future, out here, in this infinite black.

The nervous Nue was pacing back and forth waiting for her ship to arrive, in over two years her first deployment, her hands shook as she looked down at them. She was a total wreck with so many emotions rushing through her head, "Hope this is worth it."

Commander in Chief Fallout. He had not asked for the position, but it was his. As far as the leaders of the human race were concerned, he was the only one for the job. He was stroing and brave. he had been in many battles and became a war hero. He was to be captain of the newest battle ship in the Union. He was the only one who knew of the position, his position would later be unveiled at the ceremony for the departure of the Eternal. He sat talking to one of his closest friends, codenamed Blitz. They watched the new recruits board the Eternal, one after another. Some were excited, some were frantic. Two soldiers had already been dishonourably discharged for neglect of compliance. "Bout half of these soldiers will not make it back. the curse of war spreads to every generation. These freaks did nothing but make it worse.
Blitz-Im more mad that they taunt us the way they do. We didnt stand a chance when they came here. they gave us weapons that could beat them and then attcked us. they are some cocky S.O.B.'s. Well i should report to the Templar, its an old ship but sturdy. See you around. Oh and dont get killed on me, or I'll kick your ass.
Fallout gave a nob and walked away to the corridor that led to the Eternal. Immeasureable amount of steel, iron, and every other material known to man.He went to the observation deck, and checked evefy radar five times. He was very cautious. Then he noticed one of the recruits staring at the green nebula in the shape of a girl. thats the Faith Nebula, did you know that. Very beautiful, it makes you think of what your fighting for. Im called Fallout, and you?

"Kenneth, first sergeant Kenneth. I like the name of it, 'Faith', reminds me to keep faith. Sometimes I wonder, what the Lyrans believe. Do they do fight for their children? Even if they do, this war will have one bloody outcome. One of us is going to crash and burn and be dragged through the mud." The recruit said, turning to face Fallout, "Our cause is one I am ready to give my life for. I wish more of the bundle of recruits on this ship felt the same." Kenneth walked across the room and asked "So, Fallout, would you like a glass of coffee? It's still pretty early and sometimes it can take off the edge. We all need to be alert and ready for whatever the next," Kenneth is interrupted when the radar beeped, "one of those comes."

With that Kenneth took a seat nearby in front of one of the radars with a cup of coffee and his notebook, he would record any change in the surrounding area and seemed a bit anxious to see this opponent's next move. Softly to himself he asked "What's your next move, you aquamarine savages you," as he pondered. Eyes scanning the radar for some clue, and he flipped the pages of his notebook to a blank sheet, starting to map the area tactically, marking asteroids and the like as places for cover of to hide an attack behind.

Silver's mind was frantic as her feet hit the ship's floor for the first time. She sniffed, and rubbed her fingers together. It was a bad habit she had, and she did it when she was nervous or confused. She was never nervous when she was deployed, Yet now she fet like she could rule the city known as Nervous Ville.
She wondered around, walked in some circles, and said nothing to no one. Eventually she was in a long, empty metal corridor. She was talking to herself, in her own head. It was much more peaceful in there, a happy land where the world was never invaded.

Fallout walked over to the scanners with Keneth. These creatures fight for the enjoyment. They make themselves appear as friends then turn on us as soon as we learn all there advanced tech. I dont think thats a coincidence. He looked at the scanner. what do you think it is Ken, do you mind if i call you Ken.

[Arren]

"Ken is fine," he blinked at the asteroids and such before breaking his silence, "I don't either. I think it's to give us a reason to give them a real fight. Seeing as they like it, think of it as sport when lives are laid on the line and when they slaughter the people of the galaxy." Kenneth slammed his fist down on the chair, not hard enough to damage it, but certainly loud enough to show his inner anger. After a moment and a breath Kenneth calmed, "I hope we can break this cycle of theirs, provoking a retaliation by decimating a species and giving them what it takes to fight. I hope we wipe them out and chase them far away, their remnants scattered in this galaxy. But we need to rest first and figure out a plan." A single beep sounds as some small craft comes withing the sensors of the radar, it is much smaller than the Eternal but also much faster. Everything froze and Kenneth was silent, listening to only sound in the room, the static from the radio channel. After a few minutes, a human voice "Requesting permission to board" fzzzzzt "I repeat requesting permission to board." Kenneth stared for a moment, thinking, then spoke up turning the microphone on, "Identify yourself and your ship, and your purpose." fzzzzzzt. More moments of silence. Kenneth looked at Fallout, switching the microphone off "what do you think?"

[crazydawg444]

Fallout looked at him. You are very professional and passionate, i respect that. Give me the microphone please. He took the mice and cleared his throat. This is Commander-in-Chief of the Union Orbital Naval Military, Fallout. What is your purpose for being in this secter, we are transporting civilians and recruits. Identify yourself or risk immediate arrest without bail for disrupting a military operation! You have one warning!
