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
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
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
“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
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
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
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
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
EARTH**After some hours, the giant ship of house Agnus finally got to earth. It’s entry through the portal made a loud sound just like it did when the portal first opened. The sound was so loud that everyone closed his ears for about a minute that it took the ship to get through the portal.As soon as the ship got in through the portal, the whole portal closed and for the first time for a long time, earth looked its usual color. And the unusual amount of brightness suddenly disappeared.Every human eyes on earth looked up to see the giant ship which has casted an enormous shadow on earth. It is so big that no one could see the end of the shadow it casted over the ground.People all over the earth began to run to no where particularly while those on the human federation base began to pick weapons in preparation for the war they have been waiting for.The problem in the human federation base right now is that there are no enough soldiers to fit Astra’s battle plan. She called a meeting
The three other leaders looked at each other hearing the manner in which king Near spoke to them. They immediately realized that they might have fallen into the wrong side.They turned to king Skar again and looked at him without saying a word to him. Then he began to speak again when he was sure that the last thing he said sank into their heads just the way he wants them to understand “first of all. I am going to be the supreme leader of all the houses combined together. The three of you are going to be my subjects that will answer to me. If you agree to that, you can go back and tell your subjects and also denounce your throne as kings. This is the only condition on which you will be joining the salvation ship to Terra, otherwise, you stay here and die”Shina, Jeroth and Akaris were speechless for a while trying to be sure that king Skar isn’t joking or mistaking. They kept looking at him in the most awkward manner. King Jeroth stood up and walked towards skar, then he turned after
“The aliens are getting ready for a full scale invasion. That thing you see in the sky is a portal. And they are coming very soon. So the base needs as much soldiers as possible” sergeant Brook said.“I see. As you can see, I have a full army and we are ready to fight. We don’t need to join forces with anybody” Hector replied.“You know how strong the aliens are. All humans must fight together. We have weapons. Very sophisticated weapons” sergeant Brook said.“Am sorry. You have to leave now” Hector replied.Disappointed and unsure of who these people are, sergeant Brook simply stood up and turned back. He walked away without looking back.Back at the camp, everyone was disappointed by the number of people that formed the human federation base army. Astra assigned sergeant Brook to train the new recruits which they began immediately.**CENTAURI**King Adriel has finished all necessary arrangements for the final invasion. While they were making the plans, they have successfully kept th
Humans from all over the world stood motionless watching as an entirely strange event continues to unfold up in the sky.In only about a minute, the Centaurians are done setting up their invasion portal and its time for them to flood through unannounced.Chaos and confusion doubled in every small group of survivors on earth. Those humans who still have a bit of strength left in them began to run to anywhere trying to find solace.Everyone in the human federation base, including Astra stood looking at the giant strange occurrence in the sky.For the next twenty four hours, nothing more has happened ever since the portal opened in the sky. Although so many humans are beginning to feel relaxed about it, so many others have only looked away from the portal not more than an hour ever since it appeared.As confusion grew even among the best of human on the federation human base, Astra began to make attempt to contact commander Tyra. She used the neural link found on the Centaurian spy who d
Astra has not done what she is expected to do but for some reason the primitives are cheering her up for cutting loose the man she is supposed to kill.The crowd is cheering because to them it takes an extra courage and lots of ruthlessness to kill the person and rip the persons heart after a fight with the person. And that is what they all thought Astra was about to do.Astra is now standing behind the man who is facing the other directions and backing her. The man seems to be a warrior or a fighter somewhere because of his good boxer’s standing position.Kira and Mita are standing right in front of him. Whole Astra is standing behind the man. As the man is turning and trying to find the best standing position, which doesn’t seem to be happening, he felt a person behind him. He attacked the person behind him by swinging his elbow to the back, but Astra was quick to block it with her two hands.She jumped and kick him from behind so hard that he fell from too of the small flat rock to
Few hours later, it was morning and time to keep moving no where. There is no direction and not any single form of guide for Astra and her friends. The only thing they want to do is to stay as far away from the aliens as possible.They got up quickly and began to walk without knowing where they are headed.“While we think we are running away from the aliens, we might actual be going toward them” kira said.“at least we will know the way we shouldn’t go” Astra replied.While commander Tyra and his drone soldiers are seriously searching, they seem to have gone the wrong way because Astra, kira and Mita have been walking for more than five hours now hoping that they ate heading the right way. Or anywhere far from the aliens.About five more miles on the same direction, Astra and her companions sighted the shore of a lake about ten metres out of the woods with fine white sand and a bright gentle flowing water.They were so happy that they could not wait to get there. The three of them beg
Astra is surrounded by more than two hundred enemies of different kind. And everyone of them wants to kill her by all means necessary.The room is very wide and empty, except for the many dead ninja guards of the southern group. She kept looking around trying to find a way to escape this difficult situation.The only openings in the room are highly protected and guarded to prevent her from coming out at all cost. The walls are thick African mud style that even a bullet cannot penetrate. The only softer part of the room is up through the roof.She looked up and tried to examine it carefully. At this moment, she has figured out her best route to escape but she needs the perfect time to do it which she doesn’t know when and how it will happen.Commander Tyra has just stepped a foot on the frame of the door. He stood there and looked all around the room. He knows that the humans from the human federation base are capable of invincibility, he could feel Astra’s presence in the room, althou
The whole of the palace is already in shock and even fear over the presence of several foreign guards. For the first time ever, a simple meeting looks like a war is about start.No one is clear about why all the leaders came with a whole army. But Bolo and several others know that it is definitely not a coincidence that the three leaders came with lots of guards.The meeting is in Bolo’s palace and he is suppose to be the most feared, but today, he seems like the weakest and least feared. But this is only because he has relieved his massive submissive guards.Few minutes later, when everyone was tired of waiting, Bolo stepped into the meeting hall. His arrival is so not what anyone expected it to look like.There were no much guards standing by, or any form of adequate protection any where in the whole palace, and now, Bolo has stepped into a meeting room where no one is smiling with nothing but a female white girl on his side.When Bolo entered, a few people in the hall murmured and
Everyone has gathered to know the reason why Mita screamed so loud.The two dead guards is one thing no one has ever imagined because no one has the guts to cross such a line.The only persons or person who can do a thing like this does not leave any where near Rigasa. It is obvious that this is an attempt on the life of Bolo.The chief guard of the palace or any other person is not aware of the incident. And these are the only guards killed.When nobody seems to have an idea, kira finally revealed that to his father that he has installed secret surveillance cameras all around the palace.“I can take a look at the camera recordings. All we need to know will in it. I am sure” kira said.The surveillance camera recordings weren’t too difficult to access. In less than five minutes, kira has began rewinding the recorded footage trying to arrive at the estimated time of the incidence..When he finally found the footage, Bolo, Astra and Mita who were standing beside kira all saw what really
