We made contact we’ve command and have told them what our current sit rep is, the whole thing was just us saying that we are being sieged and that HEAT rounds on our guns that are capable of killing the Jelly fish, command after hearing that was quite taken aback by what we said, so they are starting to build up the force to attack from behind and relieve some pressure on our behalf which is sweet that they are thinking about us. I wonder if Beth is thinking about me, I hope she is ok, I still wonder if I should have told her about me and her being together could be a bad idea, I mean I know she is in love with me but……I don’t know if I can give those feelings back to her as I don’t want her being sad because I die while fighting these things and with the current state of our friendship I don’t feel as I could break it, but I guess I love her but just won’t admit it I guess, like hell I like woman who have a nice ass and some good size tits like a of lot dude’s I want the good stuff, although she is quite breath taking.

Focus fuck knuckle 1 you have mission to do, talk about it when it is just you and her and not here damn it.

Now that is a priority that needs to be delt with I focus back in on what we were discussing and that was how the fuck are we going to holdout for a couple of days, what we proposed is that we just keep fortifying our position and hold out until the main force is ready to attack and release the pressure that is on us so we can replenish and help with the battle. We all go to our things that need to be done and I head for the command center that we have set up, I see Kimber looking at some maps, so I wonder over to see what he is looking at then I see a photo of a woman in his hands I want to enquire but don’t want to at the same time as I might seem too intrusive but I go ahead and ask “Kimber who is that you are looking at someone special to you” he reacts fast as he turns around hands behind his back and faces me with a little bit of embarrassment “what’s wrong Kimber I only want to know who it was calm down” he looks at me then looks behind him and sighs “the person in the photo is my fiancé and we are going to get married after this” I look at him along with a lot of other people with shock including me, I am 20 and to join the military is 20 so I joined around 5 months ago well we figured out how long I have been here but not the point he is the same age as me and he is getting married to a woman who looks very………. How should I put this as I don’t want to offend Kimber but she is very beautiful and I am not sure if Kimber would like saying his wife is very attractive but hey good for him I guess “how the hell are you getting married at the age of 20” I hear someone say bitterly behind me, I agree how the fuck is he doing this “ok look I understand this is something very sketchy but this marriage was set up when I was 16 ok” “wait what this marriage was planned or arranged” “no, no just planned not arranged, me and her planned to marry each other when we were both 20 so that is what we did” we all look at him with a face of ‘what and how the fuck did you both keep that promise together’

After that interesting thing that happened we just went back to do normal stuff which was paperwork radio listening and other mundane tasks and such but what the Unit A/C/S/M Commanders talk around the map along with me and SUTC Kimber when I looked at it I saw many different symbols that I was introduced then and there by Kimber on the said symbols it will take a while for me to get to know what they meant but I will get there some day.

What they were talking about was that of manpower we have 75 men in total and 30 are not able to fight which is really around 1/3erd of our force or something like that, I wish I had more men available to me instead of this low number, but I get what they are thinking they want to test me on how I do with what I got instead of throwing me in to a full team of 250 men, 250 huh that’s quite a lot if I do meet or surpass there expectations honestly I thought I would suck at this and still think so right now, honestly why me of all people not to die when I was with them I should have die then and there I know they saw me but why did they not kill me like the others, fate?

I was taken out of my trance with a tap to my shoulder “sir, we have got a report” he then hands me a note well a letter saying the following:

UTC RICHARD THORN

HIGH COMMAND

UTC Thorn, a uprising has just started by the nobles against the government they have ordered us to surrender and hand you over to a person called Jacob Road so he can ‘talk to you’ that sounds more or less like torture you to death to reveal secrets on how you are alive from your first expedition or the final exam to see how well you do to command and fight enemies, they also said they have a hostage that you know and that is that Elizbeth Behail at the moment we are trying to locate her but at the moment we have no luck on finding her and wish when you come back from the operation that you are on to squash the unrest in the nobles.

LAST LIGHT HIGH COMMAND OF MILITARY AFAIRS

Well, if fate was on my side it is really cruel if I say so myself, what am I going to do when I get back to the safe sectors how should I approach this how do I get Beth out from their grasp and who is this Jacob Road what does he want me for, I think I already know what to do I just have to wait to complete this operation to put what I have in my mind to use why not now just leave and head to the safe sectors and deal with it now instead of later.

But I need to complete this operation before I can go after the nobles, calm yourself you never get this angry why now of all times.

“Sir, what was inside the letter was it anything important back from the safe sectors” I look at him with the most emotionless look I can give and just say ‘no it was nothing important’ I am sure they don’t need to know now that while they are here the nobles are trying to take control and fuck us over because they want power over everyone they see and just to get their own way, but why do they want me.

“what is the situation with the Aku-no, what are they doing” I say while tearing the letter into pieces and throwing it letting the wind from the turbines carry it away, he looks at me with a look of uneasiness and does not wish to spit out wat is going on, all I do is look at him after what I just read I am not in the greatest mood I can be and that look I gave him was that of death as all I wanted at the moment was death, after he saw my look he said “sir, the Aku-no are launching probe attacks here and there to see where are weakest at but a scout Unit has come back with info of that the Aku-no have many holes in their lines and don’t want to plug them but one hole in their line is too big and seems like a trap” he said all of that in a hurry as not to be killed by me at that moment I look away from him, so a trap and many holes that are small enough for us all to get out of this place from, they are luring us out of cover this man is right to think that this is a trap, but I can see a way to get out of this place that does not evolve other’s fighting.

Unknow location in last light

I wonder how I can leave this place sure it is nice and all, but I do not like it here as they just hand me food and water to survive and every now and then Jacob comes to talk to me about how I am his and no one else’s I feel like his plaything, and I hate that thought. A door opens behind Beth as a man moves in its not Jacob but someone else, they wear all black and a gas mask, why a gas mask.

Beth has a feeling a drowsiness and falls asleep.

FOB HOPE SECTOR H-55

“Sir, you got to be kidding that is suicide if you do that at least consider some of the men to be with you!” yelled one of the many UCs at the table others were ‘Sir, we are not leaving you behind’ or ‘Sir, this is a prank you have you be kidding’ someone said ‘Sir, if you wish to die I respect that you want to die in honour but I don’t think now is the best time to die’ they all wish for me to stay but I don’t listen to what they say after they all stopped yelling or showing there disagreement with what I have planned I speak in a tone that is soft and shows understanding but determination and I say “I understand your pleas for my safety but I do a sure you I don’t plan on dying today or tomorrow or anytime soon I wish for us to survive and fight another day as this place is not going to hold out until help comes or something of that we have to act now and not later when we are about to die so I say you all leave and let me fight to by you all time” after what I had said quietness took hold of the room then it was broken by the chatter of the radio in the room “this is First class high echelon commander (FHEC), Kyle Kites we are ready to commence are attack on the sector on the Aku-no we are waiting for confirmation” we all have shock hit us, they are ready now? but they said 2 days and who is Kyle Kites isn’t Kites a noble family, ahh that’s it that want us to have that help is coming early but High is all ways right and this is sketchy for the others that heard this.

“I don’t trust that at all” Kimber blurted out, well looks like he caught on how it seems too good to be true, hmmm now that I think about it I can have them get rid of some force pressuring us and have a good chunk of noble forces dealt with at the same time well two birds with one stone.

I walk over to the radio grab the mic and hold the button to start talking “Sir, this is UTC, Richard Thorn it is good to hear a voice that we know, we thank you for contacting us that you are for the flanking attack on the Aku-no it would best if you can attack as soon as possible” I then let go of the button and wait for an answer from the ‘FHEC’ Kyle Kites I turn to have Kimber and the UCs look at me understanding what I am about to do.

“we hear what you have planned and are going to go along with your idea we will make contact in 15 mins please hang tight” everyone looks at the map in disgust of what they just heard from the young noble and that he obviously does not understand who came up with that plan and when is being performed, I stroll back over to the table “I got a letter form High command saying that the nobles are starting a uprising and that after we finish this operation we are to stop it immediately” the look of no one surprize just gave me the feeling they knew it was coming but don’t know when it would happen.

“So are we going with the plan I have made or no” I plainly say, all I see is nods of agreement I nod clasp my hands together “well then we better start moving to our positions” I wonder what changed their mind about me being alone and fight alone I guess I will find out later on when the operation is finished I guess, we all head down stairs to the Armory we had made and stock up with what we can.

But I am going to stock extra of everything as I am going to make sure I can survive.
