Ace Of Terrans

A monitor went off and Quinn said, “Inbound communication, location unknown.”

Rosa said, “The channel is secret, it could be the spike team. Connect us through.”

Quinn did as she was told to, the connection got through but maintaining the protocol, Quinn did not say anything first. The other side spoke up, “This is Ace, we have completed the task. Battery captured.”

Quinn was shocked, they actually did it. However, before anything else, she replied, “I will put you connection through to Commander Silence.”

Shi Lang replied, “Affirmative.”

Quinn quickly connected to Archie Arkham and said, “Sir, we have a report from the spike team, shall I?”

“Yes.”, said Archie Arkham. It would be a lie to say that she was not anxious, he was just good at covering it up.

The call connected and the lady asked, “This is Silence, do you read, Ace?”

“Godspeed commander, this is Ace. We have finished the first phase. I took the liberty to start the second phase according to the code of secret divisions, save lives and save the future. The battery will explode within twenty hours.”, said the young man on the radio.

Archie Arkham said, “Now that you have decided, let it be. Try to get the data blueprint back. We might be able to find something important and useful.”

Shi Lang replied, “Yes, Sir.”

Archie Arkham nodded and said, “Get back soon, the fleet aid has estimated to arrive in a few hours, the war will begin then.”

Shi Lang nodded and said, “Commander, is it alright if I brought back the technicians we have taken hostage?”

Archie Arkham thought and said, “They can live on a barren moon till the war is on. We can deploy a temporary lunar bunk.”

Shi Lang agreed and then reported to her that the guards have been taken out and they had to kill one technician. The miners were also being taken hostage at the moment they were speaking. Archie Arkham gave him instructions on how to deal with it and the conversation was concluded.

Since they were going to ambush the Arcadian army from their backs, they needed to move faster, if the enemy arrived before they could carry out their plans then it will be troublesome. The public travel spaceports of the plants near the estimated war sectors were sealed. Only Military operation was being performed.

Archie had instructed the secret division teams to take on the space fleet by surprise in cooperation with the Neomonian space fleet. At this moment, the ships were moving through space and will take a few hours to reach the designated area.

After ten hours, when everything was done. Shi Lang and his team transferred the technicians and miners to a warship with the capacity to hold accommodate a thousand people. They did take tons of data blueprints but other than that nothing. The technicians have told Shi Lang that the battery will be asked to deliver ammunition and support weapons only when the army was running low.

Usually, it would be a long time before the core of phaser weapons run out but during war situations, they need constant repair and checkups. During a checkup, the spaceship will return to the rally point.

War time rules suggested not to attack the rally points. These rules of war were decided before the war begins. The two sides will send an ambassador and they will negotiate the war rules. Then both the fleets will write a code, this code will make sure that the rules are followed properly. The codes will be locked, and the key to altering the code will be placed with the enemy ambassador only.

Shi Lang and his team reported to the bordering planet, Destintia. The miners and the technicians were released and the ship was taken by Tick to hide under the sea bed. This way, the enemy will not be able to scan their presence.

A few hours later, the secret division fleet and the neomonian fleet made contact. They placed their ships under the sea surface and then they waited. The natives were told that the empire was at war so they all entered the shelters.

The third prince of Arcadia had his ships move and his entire fleet stood at the edge of the border. The deadline he set for these people was still away, and he would rather wait for news from Chol than jump the gun and harm his own territory.

While the Arcadian prince was waiting at the border, in the royal court someone finally came forward to accept the responsibility that Cara has fled and that she was responsible for the death of ten imperial soldiers.

The emperor was furious and he ordered a hunt. They were aware that the ships were found near the neutral area, but able to keep their heads intact, they did not tell him this. They did not imagine a small child to be able to hack in and slowly prepare everything she needed. The reason she was able to execute everything as she planned was that this was the army. They moved in a manner of clockwork, one disturbance and it is done for.

On the other hand, the Terran fleet had arrived at the front. The massive number of the ships was so much that one could see them with naked eyes as they looked at the sky. Nexalia was one of these people and she said, “The Terran military is not easy.”

Ameris nodded, the neomon fleet general beside her said, “Your Excellency, this momentum still lacks in comparison to the first fleet. I felt my blood running cold.”

Nexalia nodded and said, “Good thing we sided with them.”

The team members of Nexa’s delegation had told her about their experience in The Federation, they all wished to visit that place once more. After all, they never experienced such freedom.

Soon, the fleets were mobilized. Claut deliberately leaked the news to the third prince of Arcadia, that the plan was discovered, and they were now preparing for war. The third prince did not wish to delay anymore. If the territory was damaged then he will restore it all. He cursed Claut for the incompetency they had shown in this matter and moved forward.

As soon as his fleet crossed the border, the surveillance probes alerted the allied forces. However, they did not react in a hurry. The best way to defeat an enemy was to let it think they have hope to win. Just when they are high in morale, you close in from the shadow and kill them. Simple and efficient.

Under the leadership of General Stevenson, the united fleet was also moving forward. He sat in the captain chair of the biggest warship in the fleet and said, “Have us positioned diagonally above the enemy. We use the blitzkrieg. Target their command vessel, and scramble the rest. Understood?”

“Yes, Sir.”, replied the crew.

In the space, there were no directions but there were up and down based on the perception of a person. The pilot followed the command while the communication officer relayed the command to all the other ships. A few minutes later, the officer on the radar system said, “Sir, enemy spotted.”

Stevenson said, “Engage.”

The command was passed, and the war began. The fleet charged forward and in a well-synced manner, each ship picked up the targets, and soon the space was filled with phasor beams.

An arcadian officer noticed the anomaly and with a panicked expression he reported, “Your Highness, we are under attack.”

The speed of charge was so fast, that by the time they spotted the enemy, they have already been engaged with phaser beams. It was like a person facing a towering Tsunami. The Arcadian prince had no option but to say, “Evade the attacks and counter.”

The generals said, “No, your highness, the enemies wish for us to scramble. It will be easier to take us out. Please do not make it easier for them.”

The prince asked, “What shall we do now?”

The general said, “Counter face to face. They will be outnumbered soon.”

The prince thought and nodded his head in permission. The command was relayed and the two fleets began to fight face to face.

Stevenson could see the situation and said, “I see, someone has a pair. Tell the spike team, it is their queue.”

The adjutant relayed the command, “You are good to go.”

Shi Lang commanded, “Let’s go.”

The secret division ships were mobilized and they all left the planets they were hiding on. Going into space jumps, they appeared behind the enemy, what happened next was very easy to figure out. They were all given instructions, “Shoot at will and shoot to kill.”

The Arcadian fleet was overwhelmed from both the front and the rear. The general said, “Shit, these cunning bastards.”

The prince grit his teeth and asked, “Can we do nothing?”
