** HUMAN FEDERATION BASE**The special squad have gathered in the council chamber for a briefing before their first mission outside the base. Only Sergent Brook and Sergent Liu have been outside he base more than three times since the invasion began. The president and the army general have a great doubt about the special squad but they can't continue without a squad and they also cannot reverse the suspension of the emerald ghost squad just to prove to anybody in the base that no one is beyond punishment. When the team gathered in the council chamber, the president briefed them despite his doubt and the thought that they maybe putting them in danger deliberately knowing that the team had not gotten adequate training and also because they are rookies. All the special squad team members carried automatic riffles as instructed by Brook who has continuously mocked emerald squad for their choice of weapons. Sergent Brook has filed a complaint severally requesting that he should be made

Fina finally agreed to go back to the base because, even though she is right, disobedience to superiors is a serious crime. According to the constitution of the human federation, it is also considered a disobidence to the government. They all got on board and headed back to the base only to return after the Sergent have showed off the pictures of what he didn't kill or even know how they were killed. On their way back, Sergent Brook have seen a group of drone soldiers parading some humans around. He asked Sergent Fowler to open the hatch and fly lower to allow him observe the drone soldiers.When the ship flew lower, he handed a camera device to Liu and ask him to snap him as many pictures as possible with the drone soldiers on the ground as the background. After about ten pictures, Sergent Liu showed the pictures to Brook. But he didn't like them much because they were not clear enough to see his face in them. So he asked that Fowler fly around again and also commanded Liu to sn

**EARTH, SPECIAL SQUAD**"Run! Run! Runn! Fina keeps shouting as she followed Sergent Brook and Sergent Fowler who were already in the forests trying to find a hiding place from the spraying bullets of the drone soldiers. The thoughts of the dead body of Sergent Liu laying dead on the beach did not allow her to run fast enough. Her ears and eyes are oblivious to the bullets digging into the sands of the beach beside her. Somehow, her legs are still running towards the forest to seek for safety. She only regained consciousness and control of herself when a bullet hit and broke the tree in front of her.About six metres ahead of her, Sergent Brook and Fowler were running as fast as they could trying to reach an unknown and uncertain safety. At some distances, they would turn back and shoot their guns hoping to slow the drone soldiers down. Astra shouted at them telling them to split so that one of them can be free from the chase since they ate three and there are only two drone sold

The human federation base continues to become weaker day by day. The absence of Astra has been major set back, and now the central computer has caused the biggest problem ever encountered in the base. Carter has done all he could to salvage the situation, but it just seems like he is doing nothing. Right now, the strong hold of the humans seems to have nothing to depend on when the aliens attack. The shield is the only defence tool standing between the aliens and humans. The emerald shield and the aether shield is still working because it's not connected to the central computer. The federation human base is covered under two shields, the first emerald shield, then the aether shield which was developed letter on. Astra then, suggested that the aether shield should be built over the emerald shield. When the Shield was activated, Carter suggested that there is no need to link it to the central computer because it needs to be kept on, at all times. On the night of that day, Jamie w

In less than a year i was a happy man, living my dream life, i had a good job and almost everything i needed. The world was flourishing, families were happy. Today, the whole of humanity lives in a land not bigger than a state. Our total population is no longer up-to any state in the former USA. Of all the ways i thought it will end for me, i never imagined it this way. Carter's shoulders have become weak, his joints are sour and his hopes have vanished, as he stood with his eyes now closed expecting to experience death any second. A relief came to Carter when the harrowers made a humming sound. He opened his eyes and saw that the green helion lights on the side of harrowers had gone off and they are no longer vibrating. The harrowers have been switched off. The creaking sound of the harrowers were no longer heard by people in the bunkers. A form of relief is beginning to return and every one on the base remained quiet and trying to be sure the harrowers are no longer making the cr
