Invasion: the apocalypse 3.6: A NEW DAWN FOR HUMANITY
Two days into the journey to the island located halfway across the world, the phantom cruiser has already closed eighty percent of the distance, it is two o’clock in the night and Astra has just been woken up by the alarm system on the ship. The speakers all over the ship are blaring loudly and Carter is on the deck addressing all personnel of the Emerald ghosts squad. “Attention! Attention! All members of the emerald ghosts are to assemble on the deck of the ship right now. This is not a drill, I repeat, this is not a drill.” The voice said. Astra woke up and put on her camouflage hoodie, the weather is freezing cold. She carried her HELL-blades and put them in the new sheath that Carter made for her and head to the deck. When she arrived, there were many soldiers wearing the black uniforms with the tag and symbol of the emerald ghosts. Captain Andrew stood in front of all of them addressing them, to the right side of the soldiers are the main members of the squad including the el
Invasion: the apocalypse 3.7: HEAVEN'S FALL
With the giant Arachnid queen dead, Astra and the Emerald ghosts evacuated the island to the phantom cruiser where they were met with every person aboard the ship in celebration and praise for their victory. She ship, stationed in the shore of Quartz sixty island, was turned off to save fuel. After the celebratory events that the soldiers organized, everyone eventually leaves the deck for their dorms as the night falls. Astra was sleepy, so she stood up and headed to the bridge where Carter and captain Andrew were busy going over some documented plans for constructions on the island. “Here comes humanity’s bravest hero. Astra of the twin glowing blades.” Andrew said with a crooked smile on his face. “Don’t mind him Astra, he is trying to cheer for you but he is better suited for formal military congratulations, this is him trying to be casual with you. Carter said. She turned around and look at Captain Andrew, stood at attention and saluted him. “thank you for the efforts you put
Invasion: the apocalypse 3.8: PRINCE ADRIEL AGNUS
Astra quickly stood on her feet, Carter and every soul on the fortress came running to the deck, the engineers and workers on the island both constructing new building and excavating emerald crystals stopped their work, everybody is gazing upwards at some of the scattered pierces of the moon floating away in space from the force of the explosion, and the smaller pieces that are currently raining down on earth. A siren went off, Astra’s smart bracelet pinged a massage, and it is an emergency protocol asking everyone on board to get off the island back into the floating fortress. She ran to the back of the gigantic ship to find Carter and ask what is going on and why everyone is required to get off the island immediately with a countdown of two minutes and twenty seconds. The workers on the island raced one another into the fortress. As soon as she was inside, she head to the only place someone like Carter will be at the moment, although she knows that the fortress has a lot of Astro
Invasion: the apocalypse 3.9
“My son Adriel, now that you have come of age, it is time I teach you the proper ways of the Agnus. In this entire kingdom, you are the only person aside myself who can activate the helion drive that we use to dominate the eastern plains. We are the mightiest of all the five houses in the empire for one reason. What do you think that reason is?” Agnus Kai asked Adriel. Sitting on the royal prince throne to the right side of his father’s, Adriel sat with his legs crossed and his attention on the fight below. Without turning around to look at his father, he shook his head and said. “Is that not because you are so great father? You have raised a mighty chivalry of orbital knights and an entire armada of foot soldiers that can face all of the four families combined in battle and still hold their ground.” Agnus Kai started laughing uncontrollably, extending his arm and placing it on the shoulder of Adriel. “This is all true, but the reason why we are so mighty, the reason why the rest of
Invasion: the apocalypse 4.0: TRAPPED
Astra and Elena sat with captain Jiro to have further discussions of two other two shelters and how the shelter was able to develop very quickly and adapt to life underground. “So how do you keep the people fed for six months? I know the shelters are packed with canned food and protein bars but they ought to have been exhausted by now considering the number of people you have down here.” Astra asked. The soldier who obviously loves his job and from what Astra could see, he actually excels at it. She took a more careful look at the man as he excuses himself for a minute and try to help an old man on a wheelchair. His dark black hair and glistering eyes tell her that he must be in his mid thirties, being a captain at that age is already a great feat, his looks are a little beyond average and he keeps himself fit for most part of what can be achieved by a man living underground. He came back and sat with them as the evacuation continues ten people at a time. “We merely grow vegetabl
Invasion: the apocalypse 4.1
Astra and the remaining soldiers jumped into the rail tunnel and started their almost thirty hours journey, they organized themselves so in a passion that Astra and some soldiers from the Emerald ghosts lead them in front, where captain Jiro and two of his men were helping them navigate the tunnels, while Elena and the remaining emerald ghosts soldiers were in the back keeping an eye out for any alien that may be lurking in there. “Astra and Jiro have been discussing all the time, she has been smiling and periodically laughing, what is that man telling her like this? Is he really making a move on her?” Eric asked Elena and the Japanese soldiers from the shelter who were close enough to them heard him, they turned around smiling. “Poor bastard, he would have luck flirting with any lady in the entire world and he had to pick the absolute wrong one…. Hahahaha.” Rhoda said and started laughing uncontrollably. “What do you mean by he picked the absolute wrong one?” Elena quickly asked
Invasion: the apocalypse 4.2: ESCAPING THE FUJI SHELTER
Astra asked Peter to gather all of the people around in the center of the outer parts of the shelter where five hovering buses have been verified to be in functioning conditions, she has called Carter and the fortress a few hours ago and have given him the exact GPS coordinates of the Fuji shelter gate where the cruisers will land after the cloaking system on the ships have been repaired. “We are bringing the lead phantom cruiser this time around. We will need the big guns on it should a situation like the last one happen! So be ready for a fight too.” Carter said over the call. “I am always ready for a fight.” Astra responded. She led Elena to the side just before she asked peter to gather everyone in the shelter around in the parking section. She asked her to hold the new HELL-blade and pull the trigger the sits on her thumb, she did exactly as Astra has asked her to, teaching her all the basics of the blade and asking her to keep it, “you may want to switch your rifle to a small
Invasion: the apocalypse 4.3
Carter was hesitant at first. He wanted to be absolutely sure that Astra was dead before he makes his decision of leaving the area to the fortress before whatever attacked just a minute ago fires the second attack. ‘I may be scientist by choice, but above all of that, I am here as a soldier and Astra may be special, but she is not worth thousands of lives.’ He thought and finally decide to keep going head on without turning back. A few minutes later, the five phantom cruisers landed and docked the floating fortress, with the main cruiser having one of its engines destroyed, they started heading straight back to Quartz sixty island, now renamed Base Zero. It has been two months since the emerald Ghosts have left in the quest to rescue survivors from the Japanese shelters outside the planes of Tokyo Giga cities. From the far distances, none of them could recognize the island anymore, the walls around it have been erected even taller that they were and mounted on them are even more emer
