"Shit he's dead, Lock down the clean room, double the Gard, and get an autopsy preformed on this man immediately."

"Shit he's dead, Lock down the clean room, double the Gard, and get an autopsy preformed on this man immediately."

SAS Head Researcher: "Damn it! How is that possible? We have all safety precautions enabled and we have the highest security now. How did someone manage to get one of our men? I think the Syndicate might be behind this. Men, be careful whenever you leave or step inside. You never know who's watching." SAS Research Team: "Yes sir!"

[Chinevion]

Report from autopsy
The organs show signs of failure which is the most likely cause of death. Very faint traces of foreign chemical weapons are present, unknown origin. The samples are being sent of to a lab for testing.

[Eclius]

From nowhere, a Swedish scientist started to shake, he quietly asked the general
"si.....sir? You did say that the guy placed his hand on your head and gave you this vision, right?"
"It's freaking weird, but yes"
"We......wel.....well, the moment he walked in, we detected a mass energy surge, from his body"
"So, you're saying, this cross-dimensional Eclisian is un-human"
"Yes, well, frankly....."
"That is <bleep!>!! I've seen him dead, with my own FREAKING EYES after he gave me hallucinations"
Suddenly, a soldier rushes in
"Si...sir? The guard is missing, we have no idea where he went"

Meanwhile....
"HQ, HQ, I managed to escape, requesting further commands"
"Focus on destroying the pieces before the pathetic biological tissues gets on that thing"
"Roger that, and also, please send equipment packages, I think I'll need more Nano Goos"
"Copy that, we'll try our best"

Somewhere in SAS
"Sir, why is there grey liquids leaking from the Eclisian guy's dead body"
"What? What on Earth?"
The medical examiner's curiosity finally got the best of him, he grabbed the grey, liquid substance leaked from the dead person's body
"ahh!!! Ahh!!!! It's corroding by hand!!"
Realized the problem, the assistance immediately blasted the goo with pressurized water, then it went down the sink
"Professor, are you alright?"
"Well, except for the scars on my hand, I'm fine........Oh my god!"
"Professor, I beg you pardon?"
"That!! That is not the dead Eclisian guy! And the foreign chemicals, I'm afraid whoever made them is billions of light years more advanced then we are"
*Phone rings
"Professor! The grey materials from the organ......they are everywhere! And corroding our skins!"
"Blast them with pressurized water. Damn it! What are those things?"
"We are quite unsure, the materials......they are not Earthly!"

Peru Anomaly
after months of searching we found blueprints for energy armor as well as a chest piece of it in peru with the eclisian symbol on it this was all the evidence we needed the perusians were working with the eclisians and we declared war on them. within a few days we were 1000 miles in peru ready to punish them and take their land. meanwhile the chest armor and blueprints were brought to our top secret lab to test and reverse engineer.

Trenul stood before the training Trotskite army, watching them from the upper floor in Trotskygrad's HQ. Recently, he had devoted large funding to the Armed Forces, as tensions rose in the rest of the world. Tensions were rising in the Union as well, as the pro-capitalist dissidents had staged an attack within one of the major cities, killing two people and injuring five more. The populace was starting to get concerned with the rise of attacks and rebels. And even more important, the rest of the world may be paying more attention to the same attacks. In order to secure order, Trenul knew he had to secure the loyalty of his military.

Yivisque stood beside him, gleaming as his men hurdled through the course, "I told you that all it would take is a little more money and I could get you a real army, didn't I?" As he spoke, a few men messed up and slammed into the ground.

"You mean this is your definition of a real army! Leon, what force could these men possibly repel? A herd of wild rabbits, perhaps?"

But Yivisque shook his head, "The rabbits beat them last time we had a showdown, actually."

"Why is it that we can never seem to get a properly trained army?"

"It's just not our culture, Trenul. We don't exactly take much pride in our armed forces. They're undisciplined, unmotivated, and uninspired. What can I do about that? I've spent years trying too work them into shape, but the progress we've made has always been minimal at best. These boys don't believe a war will ever come to us. They're fools, they think peace is the nature of the world. One day, they're going to get a major shock and then we'll see some progress, but until then, I'm stuck with the-"

BOOM The room shook as an explosion tore out part of the foundation of the building. "Shit! Quick Trenul, this way!" Yivisque grabbed Trenul and dragged him away, Trenul stumbling, surprised and stunned.

"Wha-what was that?" Trenul stuttered out.

"I don't know," Leon said, pulling Trenul to the staircase, "But it can't be good!"

Chinevion eye news report.

"Tragedy strikes in the village of thái dương in the Vietnam district, as a family dies of anthrax, it is unknown how they contracted the disease, but the had just come back from travel abroad in Canada. They made a stop over in Sweden, and it is unknown if they contracted it there or in Canada, but, a quarantine has been set up, and an advisory has been sent out for all citizens who has traveled abroad or has had contact with someone who has traveled abroad, to visit their local pharmacy or doctors office between 5am-9pm for an anthrax screening, if your in doubt go to the screening. This is Allen Zhu, the time is 5:00pm. Have a good night and stay safe. Your lucky numbers are 13, 10, 5

CCDC (Chinevion center for disease control)
The virus samples we received from the dead scientist and the family from thái dương, all had the same strain of anthrax, problem is, we have never seen it before, it seems perfectly evolved to survive in our climate, at first we were not even able to identify it, but after comparing all four samples, we found the virus, we have no way of telling at this current point, if it is a man made disease, or a unfortunate twist of nature. We are currently working on synthesizing a vaccine, but until then, we will have to prepare for casualties. We have determined a way to spot it early through blood samples, which are being done at the screenings, and luckily, It appears to work slowly so we have time to figure out a cure.

Downtown Square, Stockholm
June 27th, 2100

As citizens just go by their normal day and routine, the moment they saw the Chinevion news broadcast on the TV and as it ended, the citizens at the square immediately went into a panic as they started running and screaming. Some were even killing each other cause they thought they had the infection. They didn't follow anything the broadcast said and now the SPD and its SWAT team was called in to stop these riots as they see in their eyes. SPD Chief Townley: "All right! This is your last chance. Either you give up this madness and head to the screenings or you will die here or be arrested. You have 5 seconds to choose. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. OPEN FIRE MEN!" SPD Unit: "ROGER THAT! FIRING!" As their rifles and pistols fire, people kept falling to the floor with blood all over them as one by one fell down and before you know it, almost everyone there was killed except for a few which some went to the screenings and the others went to the station.

Presidential Estate, Stockholm
A Few Hours Later

SAS Advisor: "Sir. The Roman agent has escaped. He got away and went he did, he left behind some bioweapons for our men to find. Should we organize a search party?" "Yes! I want that bastard here alive and if he resists, I want his corpse. He will come here one way or another. *sighs* What else is there?" "Well sir, we had a panicking crowd in the Downtown Square after the Chinevian broadcast went live. People were killing each other and SPD and SWAT had to be called in. They ordered execution of everyone that resisted and only a couple survived. Some are being screened while the others are locked up." "Goddamn it. This is becoming a disaster. If things like this keep happening, it will be the Swedish Civil War all over again. I will make a public speech about this soon. For now, I need me some rest. Good night, Franku."

[Chinevion]

"Sir, Swedish forces just massacred a village." "Shit, dispatch mechanized infantry battalion 7 to the area, arrest all Swedish forces involved and try to save all survivors and wounded. Get a cas 1 in the area, to make sure they dont flee. HE has premission to use leathal force if they don't surrender. Scratch that load the cas 1 with lethal rounds, but anesthetic gas grenades in the half of heads of the missiles, but the other half, lethal."

Nikita placed his hand on his neck and his elbow on the table as he leaned forward, "So they do have foreign support." He said, looking down at the message, "It took them long enough to find it."

He rose from his chair and went to the window, "I'll have to monitor Trenul much closer. Can't have him dying too early on." His computer beeped to notify him of a new message, "And Yivisque will have to kept under watch as well, he's important too." Nikita looked over at his computer, "Why didn't I know of the attack on their lives though? How did this slip by me?" He read the short and simple message, and smiled, "They both survived, so it's not ruined." He typed something, and sent it away, "And the Assembly is sure to be called, and things will only get worse from here."

Stockholm, Sweden
June 28th, 2100

After the massacre of the people in the Downtown District, President Harling has now been forced to make a response to this tragedy. As the cameras go live, it's time for Harling to respond after this controversy to his country. "Attention to anyone watching this. If you are looking at this, chances are you heard about the massacre in Downtown and want answers. Well guess what, one of my men ordered it. And guess what, I let it happen. Why? Because I think it's time for the new Karl Peterssen to come back. After all, we were doing so well under his control now, weren't we? He got rid of the crime problem and those damn foreigners wanted to intervene in our politics because they felt it was justified to take us out. Well now you're wrong! Starting today, I am in control of Sweden and martial law has been temporarily activated. It's time for Sweden to show its true colors after all these years ago." SAS Advisor: "Sir! EDF troops are attacking our soldiers. They're starting a mass blitzkrieg on our cities and towns!" "WHAT?! How dare the damn cowards?" "SIR! ARTILLERY INCOMING! GET DOW-" As the shells hit, the cameras were knocked down and the signal flickered before it cut to black. The SFFA from decades ago was now in control and it's not ending in a good way.

EDF Headquarters, Stockholm
During The Speech

EDF Council: "Commander Wilkins, you can't be serious with not doing anything about this? They are threatening the peace of Earth and it's our job to stop it. It's what Mitchell would've wanted. By not following orders to attack the SAS troops, you are branding yourself a traitor Wilkins, do you want to be a traitor?" Commander Wilkins: "No sir. I will follow these orders. All right men, our orders are to attack the SAS soldiers. Do you understand that order?" As the silence filled the room for a few seconds, he assumes the men had no idea how to respond to this as he basically told them to go against their country and defeat them. After they finally spoke, they said this, "All right sir. We'll do it. Come on boys, you know our motto. For The Pride Of EDF!" The EDF has now rebelled against its founder as they had violated its very principles it withheld to protect and that goal is this: Protect and defend the Earth. Well Sweden looks to be that said threat the EDF needed to defend against and now, the country is divided once again between the EDF itself and the fascist like SAS military forces. God help these people trapped in the country.

EDF Assault, Outskirts Of Stockholm

EDF Field Commander: "All right. I'm tired of hearing this speech. Artillery, bomb the estate. I want that Harling bastard gone and the speech over." Artillery Team: "This is Artillery. Roger that. Firing." As the shells poured out from the cannons, the shells graciously fly through the air before they land near the estate, making the place in chaos. EDF Field Commander: "All right men! Push forward and defeat the fascist forces! They're blocking our way to getting to the SAS President and we need to get through somehow. All units, ENGAGE IN BATTLE!" EDF Soldiers: "Oohrahhhhh!"

[Trotsky Land]

"What'd you mean they called an Assembly without me?" Trenul said, flabbergasted and also scaring the soldier in front of him, "They can't do that! Can they do that?" He turned to Yivisque.

"Fuck, am I supposed to know the answer? Uh-twelve?"

"I swear next time I see that slimy bastard Samiy I'm going to wring his neck!" Trenul declared, "Well!" He screamed at the soldier, "What'd they decide?" The soldier jumped in his skin.

"Oh uh, well, you see, they were, sort of, unsure if you were dead, or not. They may have, uh, declared war on the rebels."

Trenul was silent, staring out at the horizon, "Dismissed." The soldier ran off, giving a big sigh of relief as he was gone.

"GOD DAMN IT!" Trenul screamed, "NOT ONLY DO THEY CALL A FUCKING ASSEMBLY WITHOUT ME, BUT THEY JUST DECIDE TO DECLARE A WHOLE FUCKING WAR WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE? JESUS CHRIST! NOT ONLY ARE THEY'RE FUCKING REBELS AROUND, BUT NOW THE ASSEMBLY JUST DOES WHATEVER THE FUCK THEY WANT. I SWEAR I'M GOING TO MURDER THAT SON OF A BITCH. SAMIY GOD DAMN YOU! THIS WILL NOT ST-"

"Trenul please, calm down. I have good news." Yivisque said.

Trenul paused, taking a deep breath, "I need it!"

Yivisque bit his lip, "I think I can get my army into shape finally!"

"Why's that?"

"Nikita just informed me that the rebels have secured some kind of foreign support."

"OH YOU'VE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!"

Presidential Estate, Stockholm
President Harling

As the world was shaking all around me and my ears still ringing after the blast, I see small visions of being dragged away from my office and into a gurney and loaded into my car. I wondered to myself, "Where did it all go wrong? Why did I agree to help the damn SFFA? Now my country's in chaos and i'm bleeding from my chest and i'm being escorted out of here. Why did this have to happen? "Hey driver. Where the hell are we going exactly?" Driver: "Well, we're escorting you to the Trotsky Union. You should be safe there as we have called and made arrangements for you there. I'm sorry My Leader but you'll have to lay low for a while until we get there. Don't worry, you'll still control the SAS from there, I assure you." Is this it? My new regime, my new rule is now gone and taken away from me? Those damn EDF troops are a pain in the ass. Why we never got rid of the organization, I will never know but now, a civil war in my country, I am now being taken out of my homeland, and now I have some shit in my wound. This fucking sucks.

SAS Forces, Defense of Stockholm

SAS Commander: "All right men! Our orders are to defend the city until the Fuhrer is escorted out. From there, we are to find any sort of weak spot in the EDF's blitzkrieg and push through their defenses. Once we even get there at all, we will track their mobile base and do our best to blow it out of the sky. Now, any questions?" "No, let's go! For Sweden!"

EDF Forces, Assault of Stockholm

EDF Field Commander: "Ok! We're making some progress here men! We're slowly dwindling them down. Now we should be able to capture the suburbs and make our way into Downtown from there. There's bound to be heavy resistance as we move deeper into Stockholm but remember, if we fall here, the SAS has free reign to try and ruin the Earth. We are Earth's guardians men and if we fail, we all fail. Keep up the effort. Command out."

President Max Cass speech to the nation
Our great allies Sweden have fallen. Not to another country but to there leader. He has begun to slaughter villages and many others. All under the banner of the Fourth reich. The country has fallen to Nazisn. So as the countries leadership is gone command of the remaining EDF forces has fallen to us until a proper government can be reasserted. We will try not to destroy cites and the good people of Sweden, but we will fight the military and there leaders. Those who wish to defect will become part of the EDF. Our battlegroup in the baltic sea has already began to help the EDF forces. We will help bring Sweden back to its former glory and we will defeat the fascists.

High above the sas
Angel 1 was the first angel class dropship (see fact book, prototypes) ever made for operations, they had not been used in combat once, but this one was charged with dropping a squad of SODST (sub orbital drop shock troopers, for their armor see factbook chinevion equipment, first one.). They were charged with bringing in the dictator of the sas, alive or dead. Chinevion spies had picked that he was fleeing the country for the trotsky union. The idea was to drop ahead of the convoy and capture him before exfiltariting him via fulton system. Angel reached the drop point, and the soldiers jumped out, falling for 5 minutes before reaching the road, they set up everything, set up tire traps, and waited.

Levgrad

President Harding of Sweden was due to arrive any time now, and Nikita waited far outside the city, where he had told the plane to find him. Beside him was his personal, rudimentary AI, tasked with ensuring the plane was what they said they were, and monitoring Air Traffic. Their was another figure with him, but it was masked.

"Are you sure of this, Nikita? This may not be the best move." The masked figure questioned him.

"Absolutely not. They're are a million moves better than this one. This plan is far too risky."

"So why are you going through with it."

"Because if this pays off, It'll pay off grand time."

"Trenul will not be happy if he discovers you're housing this man."

"Trenul never has to know."

"Nikita, do you have any clue what this could bring?"

"This could bring the future, my dear friend. This could bring the future..."

Stockholm International Airport
President Harling

"All right. This is the plane that will get me out of here?" "Yes My Fuhrer. You will be escorted by a squadron of our upgraded Arkbirds for your safety to the Trotsky Union." "Well who's waiting for my arrival then?" "I think you'll be delighted to know who you'll meet. Now please step onto the plane and Air Traffic will take care of it." "All right. But if you fail and I die, expect my agents coming for your head. Now I need to leave before the EDF knows i'm here and tries to take the airport." As I step onto the plane and inside the luxury craft, the pilot in front needs to make some calls to Air Traffic. SAS Pilot: "To the Trotsky Union, this is Deagle Wing. We have the target and are moving to location. Please provide assistance or support if you can upon arrival as I am lifting off now. Over." As the plane takes off, and so the escort squadron follows the plane, escorting it to Trotsky airspace and giving me my ticket of freedom. I need this please.

A Couple Hours Later

I was sleeping when we were about to hit Trotsky airspace but we were about a couple more miles away when I decided to call this number that the pilot gave me. He said to call it as soon as we were close to the border and so I did. *phone ringing* It picked up. Harling: "All right. Hello? Who is this? They said to call this number as soon as we were close to Trotsky Union."

SAS Forces, Stockholm

SAS Commander: "We did it men! The President's safely escorted out of here. Now all we have to do is defend Stockholm at all costs. If we can't defend it, then make sure there's nothing for them to take! Prime the bombers to be ready to bomb the city if we need them to, maybe some nuclear artillery from the Cold War, something! Now men, this is our last stand. Let's make sure it's us dying in a blaze of glory! FOR SWEDEN AND FOR OUR FATHERLAND!" "FOR OUR FATHERLAND!"

[Chinevion]

"We have movement ahead." The other squads are also reporting movement from their roads!" "Dam it they have decoys." "How the hell did they all get through the edf?" "No Clue" "Show me thermals on the main vehicle" The squads sniper looked through his semi intelligent scope, and saw 3 occupants, one drive and two gaurds. "3 occupants, do i have permission to take the shot?" the sniper looked through the scope of his gauss rifle. "No not yet. Wait for them to get closer, then trigger the charges on the tree, blocking their path, then put a round through the engine block of the rear car, lets trap them. "Yes Sir" They waited as the convoy got closer and closer. The charges were detonated, and the tree blocked the road. Simultaneously a depleted uranium 30 mm guass round decimated the engine block. Go Go GO. On All the other roads, similar encounters were happening as the decoys and one real convoy was stoped. "Everyone advance!" The confused sas soldiers stumbled out of their cars, confused and surprised. The Elite chinevion soldiers picked them off as they appeared, moving forwards. The sniper noticed a figure remaining in the car. "We have a vip here!" The Unidentified sas Vip, raised a pistol, preparing for the chinevion troops. The sniper drew out his scoped tranqu pistol based of the vp9, and took sight, and fired. The Vip clutched his neck, and began to slump forward. "Clear" the troops advanced. "Well well what do we have hear?" The slumped figure was wearing a uniform with the S.S ensign on it. "Not the dictator but still a prize. But a tranquilizer patch on him, and fulton him. Lets get him back for interrogation. And burn the bodies, if they think he is dead we get more time with him." The soldiers agreed, and strapped on fulton devices. "Time to go home boys."

"Ah, hello President Harding." Came the voice crackling over the phone, "We've been expecting you." Nikita was still waiting for the sudden, surprise Dictator, "I have to admit you're request was a surprise, but I hope you find what I've managed to pull quite satisfactory."

"Yes, it worked so I'll give you that. But who are you?" Harling asked.

"The name is frankly unimportant, you won't be seeing much of me I'm afraid. I have a friend with me waiting for you. He'll take care of you. Meanwhile, I have other business to attend to. I had to pull a lot of strings very fast to get you here, and I'm sure you'll forgive me for having to spend some time making sure those strings haven't broke, you see?"

"Are you even the government here? I mean, what the hell even is the Trotskite Union?" Harding asked again.

"Well, that's a good question. I am a very important person here, Mr. Harding be assured. But my name is something I'd prefer to keep out of this, for it's a dangerous one at that. And to assure you, you are in safe hands."

"It's Harling, not Harding."

"Oh, very well then. Be assured, Mr. Harling, you're in safe hands...safe hands..."And the phone clicked off.
