Rising Strength; The Rezuan Civil War IC (Concluded)

[Rezua]

Eomeria Hospital

A girl sat alone in her room. The chair she sat in was a wheelchair, a blanket was laid across her un-used legs. Under her eyes were dark purple circles. She stared blankly out the window as she had done since she had gotten there. The girl was a shattered figure of who she once was. "Ymira!" Sasha called. Ymira's eyes barely moved to look at Sasha. "Go away." Ymira's voice was hoarse. Sasha's concern for her friend wasn't going to be so easily shrugged off. "Ymira you've been here for nearly two weeks. You never sleep, you barely eat, you're hooked up to an IV when you have to drink. You must come with me for a trip or something. The doctors want to release you soon but you must start acting better." Ymiras head turned from the window and she hissed and said "There is nothing to get better for." Sasha walked forward and grabbed Ymira's wheelchair handles. "Hey!" Ymira screamed and tried to turn on her wheelchair's brakes but Sasha slapped her hands aside and held them with one hand and pushed Ymira along with the other. "Hey! Stop it!" Ymira shrieked. Sasha continued to push Ymira around the hospital (since Sasha is in command of Ymira's guards she told them to stand down) and stopped at a little girl's room. Inside sat a laughing little girl. "Look at that Ymira. Hey! I said look!" Sasha angrily shook Ymira's wheelchair until she looked up. "That girl was in a car accident and lost her father. She was on the verge of death. But, unlike you, she wanted to keep going and told the doctors so. There were many times they thought they'd lose her. But she held on. She said she needs to stay because her mommy needs her. Ymira, you need to continue because your country needs you. The people you care about you need you." Ymira sat quietly for a minute. Then soft sobs could be heard from her. "I'm...sorry...Sasha. I'm...so selfish..." Sasha's tone softened "It's okay Ymira. Don't worry. Just close your eyes and go to sleep. I'll wheel you back and put you in bed." However Ymira never heard Sasha. She had already fallen asleep.



OOC: I hope you enjoyed this opening

[Rhodevus]

OOC: I did.

Halfway around the world a similar situation was coming to a close. A small hospital, strong in its usefulness, but small in comparison to the ones around it, was letting out a unique patient. She was known around the hospital as The Commander, but rarely responded to the name. She prefers her given name; Sierra, or even the princess heir. She had spent 4 days initially recovering in the hospital, but visited many times over the past two weeks for check ups and re bandaging her horribly broken knee and ankle. Two weeks prior, she decided that she was done with the army for good. She always thought of herself as a soldier; The Commander. But, she realized that there was no need for that type of thought. It only lead to danger and heartache. She had enough of it.

But, The Commander she was called, and it did not seem like the name would change anytime soon. She got it in battle, some 4 years before. It was nothing special, just a routine field operation in order to discover any terrorist hideouts in Northern Rhodevus. The mission went wrong. Sierra, a third in command soldier with the rank of Captain found herself in a leadership position which she had not expected. She lead her soldiers in one of the grandest anti-terrorism operations to date. But, that is a story for another day.

Sierra was in the hospital, sitting on a small metal chair, her back upright. Upright, not because she had good posture, but because the back of the seat was cold to the touch. Anyways, Sierra was sitting down as her doctor, Dr. Flaminco, finished applying a third layer of bandages over her knee. Thanking the man, she picked up her crutches and hopped over to the nearest hospital bed. It became a sort of routine for her. She wanted to cheer people up, so since she was injured, what better thing to do, then visit people in her situation, or worse. She opened the door, to see a young woman, a bit younger than her, maybe 19 years old.

The girl was lying down, her eyes open staring out into space. A bit of soothing music was playing in the background; violin, Sierra guessed. "Hello?" Sierra asked, while entering the room. The girl just lay there, her eyes open, not acknowledging Sierra's entrance. "Can I come in?" Sierra asked shyly. She girl breathed out, then motioned for her to come and sit.

Sierra sat down next to the girl's bed. "So, how are you feeling? Can I know your name? I am-"
"I know who you are." The girl said, cutting Sierra off. "Everybody in this bloody place knows who you are. You're here to cheer me up? Is that it? Well, you can't. They've been trying to for weeks. It doesn't work." The girl breathed out heavily. It was only then did Sierra notice the burn marks on her arms and the stitches on her head and neck. Sierra was scared to ask if she had any other injuries anywhere else.

"Well," Sierra began, not sure where she wanted this sentence to go. "Maybe you just need to find the right person to talk to." "Please. That never works. Not anymore."
"Why not? What happened?"
"I was in an accident. All right!" The girl snapped at Sierra. "I was in my car with a.. ah friend. And this Ref-ah (Rhodeve for asshole) came up and hit me with his pick up."
"Do they know who the guy that hit you was?"
"Well, I do. He was my Da. Apparently got drunk and decided now would be a good time to end me. God knows he's tried before."
"What do you mean? Why would anyone in their right mind want to kill their daughter?"
"He wasn't in his right mind. He's all religious. Said 'no girl of his is gonna be with another girl.'"
"So, you're..."
"Ya, no sh-t. I told my parents a week before the accident. Ma was okay with it, sort of. But, my da tried to kill me right then and there. Pulled a knife. Luckily I was training for the army corp; same as you did, so I was able to defend myself. But, when I was out with Mary. Her... her name was Mary. he hit me with his car. My care was totaled and on fire. Mary and him were killed on impact. The police tried to get me out of the car before it ignited. They, were a bit late. I some how miraculously survived, but am left with no one I care about any more. My Ma hasn't visited once. Mary is gone. I have nothing left..."

The girl looked up at Sierra. "How did you do it? Tell your parents. I know it was in the news, but I bet you told them first."
"Well." Sierra said, "They're quite secular and liberal minded. They were fine with it. They support the decisions I make for myself. The worst of it came after releasing the news to the public. Diana was the first to know. Knew about it long before I actually told her. But, I got so many death threats from religious people. From all over the world. In languages I don't even understand. Homosexuality may be legal and protected by law, but it doesn't mean that all people conform to it. Some people hate it. But, you just got to think to yourself that now people will know the real you and respect you more for it. You will make good friends now who know your situation and can deal with any of the pain you have. Mary might be dead, but you will always remember her. Your parents aren't important if they do not appreciate you. Just know, that no matter where you are, there will be people who will love you. For the real you."

The girl thought about what Sierra said for a moment. "So, you think that this could be a good thing?"
"I do." Sierra replied, smiling. Sierra stood up and started to walk out on her crutches. before leaving the door, the girl spoke up. "Sierra?"
"Ya?" Sierra turned to face her.
"Most people call me 'Y'."
"What's it short for?" Sierra asked curiously.
"It's short for Ymira..."

[Aznazia]

tag....now to wait for the action to start.

[Rezua]

OOC: Hope no one minds me starting the action up


It was just an average day. Nothing bad was happening, besides the rain. Levi hated how the rain trapped him inside and made meeting that much more boring. At least it was the “intermission” break as Levi called it. Levi was looking out the window sipping water from a clear plastic cup when another general, Eugene Kilvo came over. “Well now Levi, how’s it feel? To be Emperor for 2 weeks?” Levi sensed a long drawn out joke or maybe some army banter. “Eh, it gets boring. Plus, I have to put up with way too much crap coming out of people’s mouths. Remember in the good old days when we could tell a guy to shut up and he would?” Kilvo laughed “If this weren’t an army budget meeting I would be telling them to shut up. And I wouldn’t be here if Bradford wasn’t sick but he always is for these meetings.” The two men laughed at Kilvo’s joke but Kilvo then contained “Axle (prime minister) really is a pain some times. He just halted our orders for new weapons again.” Levi said “Well the man has a lot to fund you know. 25% of the month’s income is going to this alone. I warn you if you keep buying weapons their gunna shot you with one just to shut you up.”
“Now what if you could be Emperor for life? Wouldn’t that be great? Think of all the military spending we’d have then.”
Levi was put off by this statement. He was joking right? “We would have a bigger budget but really, Ymira runs the country not me. She is the bloodline Empress.”
“Of course, of course, I’m speaking in a “if” situation you know. Because think about it Ymira is still young and the incident has put her in some, unfortunate mood swings. We made need you to rule.”
Levi really didn’t like this conversation. What was Eugene talking about? “Eugene, Ymira is empress. We owe her our loyalty.”
“Ha! Always so serious, Levi! I know that and she will. I said “if”. I was teasing you about losing your promotion.”
“Well, I will miss that desk. Did you know they have alcohol cabinet? Ymira would kill for that. And I read the book of secrets too. I know too much.”
Eugene laughed at Levi’s joke and walked back toward the others. Levi turned back to the rain. Why was Eugene asking about that “if” situation? Was Ymira that injured?

…


It was nearly 3 am. Levi had no clue why he was up. He finished signing some papers at 2:30 but then just sat at his desk reading the newspaper. He never had time to read it anymore. Levi decided to start home. He locked the part of Ymira’s desk he used and walked out. He never opened up her stuff, he wasn’t noisy and he wasn’t going to read her diary. That’s just wrong. As he passed the meeting room he hear voices. He stopped, he had locked that room nearly three hours ago. Who opened it? Levi placed his ear on the door and listened, clicking on his phone’s recorder.

“…damn son of a b**** is too loyal. I don’t think he’d go for it.”
“Neither would Bradford. But he’s dead now don’t worry.”
“Then do we take out Levi too?”
“No he may be useful in his new spot. But Ymira will be…problematic. Kill her, use an overdose of painkiller or something, make it look like an accident on the hospital’s part. No one would look at us.”
“But he will not go for it. If we kill him I’d be Emperor.”
“Now now Eugene we all know who will be Empress next after Ymira and Levi.”
“She created this anyway.”

Levi was unnerved, what was happening?

Then “What was that?”

Levi fled from the door was quietly as he could and got pretty far down the hallway. Eugene looked out from the door and called “Goodnight Levi, I realized I forgot my reading glasses here.”
“Night Eugene. Hey, stay away from my book of secrets with those reading glasses old man.”
“Ha!”

Levi’s calm tone soon left him as soon as he turned down the hall. He got to the lobby and went to a pay phone. He was, embarrassingly panicked. He knew many of the voices in there, Axle, Eugene and some others. They were trying to kill him. He texted the recording to Sasha:

To: Sasha

Hey Sasha. Just checking on Ymira. Attached is a recording of the music she likes. I went to an orchestra and thought of her. I hope she can dance to it, you know how much she loves it. Oh and I think Sierra likes it too. Text it to her for me will you? I don’t have her phone number. As the saying goes girls know everyone.

-L

Then Levi smashed his phone under his foot. He knew his encoding would only work for five minutes but he needed that recording to get to Sierra or Diana. Someone in the Commonwealth with power. Sasha would know to listen to it and send it to Sierra. Sasha knew that “I hope she can dance to it” means “You must run.” It was Levi and Sasha’s basic code that only they, Zoey and a few others knew. And girls know everyone meant he was telling Sasha Sierra would pass it on to Diana. There was trouble.

Levi then called Rhodeve intelligence. If he was caught he wanted to have a distraction. A Rhodeve woman answered

“Hello? This is stand-in-emperor Levi I have an urgent message.”

“I need your passcode.”

“This is life and death! Come on!”

“Yea yea tell me your code.”

Levi cursed and pulled out his code book.

“0-alpha-9-storm-8” (alpha meaning ruler and storm was his code name. )

“One minute as I verify, sir."

“Hey Levi” a female voice said. Levi turned to see his best friend Zoey Hanji holding a revolver at him. Not just any revolver, it was a .44 magnum a favorite of the Vipers terrorist group. She was trying to make it look like terrorists killed him. Levi’s hand went for his gun but he remembered he forgot it in the desk. At least he could change that. He screamed her name “ZOEY HANJI!"

On the other line
“ZOEY HANJI!”


6 shoots could be heard on the other line and then the phone was hung up...

[Rhodevus]

The Other Line
“ZOEY HANJI!”

6 shots could be heard on the other line and then the phone was hung up...

"Hello?" asked the attendant. She turned to the man working beside her. "Get RoAN on the line. Relay the recorded call to them. I think someone was just murdered."

The Imperial Palace, Kingstown Rhodevus

Four flights of stairs upwards. Down the left hall, second door on the right. Up another two flights of stairs, third door on the left. Enter key code and insert key. Enter elevator, up 3 floors.

It was a long way from RoAN command to the main floor of the Imperial Palace. RoAN, or Rhodeve Applied Networks, was the Rhodeve agency in charge of all international communications if they relate to terror organizations or war times.

Secret Agent Karchev stepped out of the elevator onto the main floor of the busy Imperial Palace. There were dozens of tour groups roaming the main and second floors. The only floors civilians were allowed to visit. Wearing his black shades and black suit, he truly looked like an agent one would see on television. Well, most of those shows were based on the RoAN uniform. Stepping into an elevator, he stood at the back, as students of all ages entered in front of him. A 10 year old boy, on a field trip turned around to look at him. "Are you a secret agent?"

Agent Karchev smiled at the kid, then nodded. He saw the boy's eyes light up in delight. "Cool! Do you have a gun? Can I be a secret agent??"
"Do well in school kid." The agent said, before the door opened up. It was onto the second floor, so everyone got off, including Karchev. He was to go directly to Queen Diana's room, which during the day was a tourist attraction for many of the students. Entering the room, the opened up a well known key pad. So well known, it even had a sign beside it that read 'Monarchial Key Pad: Used since the 80's by Secret Service operatives to enter farther into the Queen's chambers. It was used many times to reveal important information to the queen, even while she was at meetings in other locations.

Karchev tapped away at the 32 digit code, before closing the panel. A door opened up and Karchev stepped over the red rope into the room, before closing the door behind him. He did hear some kids gasp in amazement at actually seeing the key panel used with their own eyes.

Moments later, Queen Diana, who had been on the top floor of the Imperial Palace in a meeting stepped through the doors into her room. "Hello." She said to everyone inside. "Excuse me for a moment." She said smiling, opening her door into her bedroom, which was off limits. "Agent." She said, while closing the door behind her. Karchev gave a slight nod of acknowledgement. He knew that Diana knew every agent's name, real and codename.

"We may have a situation." Karchev began.
"May?" You bloody used the key panel. It can;t be a 'may' scenario." Diana said, a bit angrily.
"Rezua, Ma'am. A message we traced back to the main palace of Empress Ymira. We checked in and she is still in a hospital, but listen to the message." Karchev played the message, then put away his recording device after listening to the gun shots.
"Gun shots?" Diana asked.
"Yes. We believe it might be a terrorist attack inside. We are still trying to learn who is Zoey Hanji."
"Good. Contact someone we know to be close to Ymira (personally close, not literally close). Tell them that there may be a situation brewing in Rezua that will place the Empress in danger. Go."

Karchev rushed out of the room, back down to RoAN Command. A small message was sent (OOC: Rezua, you pick who the message went to)

"Be careful. Attack in Rezua. Ymira in danger. Report back if any new concerns arise."

[Rezua]

The Other Line
“ZOEY HANJI!”

6 shots could be heard on the other line and then the phone was hung up...

"Be careful. Attack in Rezua. Ymira in danger. Report back if any new concerns arise."

The meeting room

Zoey came back to the meeting room and threw the pistol on the table in disgust. "Levi is dead. But he called Rhodeve HQ and screamed my name just before I shot him. Damn bastard. Pretty soon they'll connect my name to being the commander-in-chief of the navy. We must act now. We'll kill Ymira now before they stop us. Tell him to kill anyone in the way." Axle looked alarmed "Wait you said only Ymira and Levi would die. We don't want a bloodbath. You said we'd weaken the monarch. Have freedom." Zoey laughed "Freedom Axle? No this is the strengthing of the empire."
"No that's not what we argeed! You must sto-" Eugene shot Axle in the chest before he could finish. Eugene said "I'll have my loyal men take the palace. There are 1,500 soldiers nearby. 900 are under our command." Zoey smiled "Start the attack. Crush the soldiers in our way.
A battle shortly took place after. Ymira's soldier were locked in a deadly battle in the palace area itself.

Ymira's Room

Three guards stood outside Ymira's room. One soldier checked his phone. Then he drew his gun and shot a guard. The remaining guard grabbed for his gun but he too was shot. The attacker entered Ymira's room and was shot right between the eyes by Sasha. She had gotten the RoAN message. Sasha fled with Ymira out the back of the hospital. Outside police chief Smith waited in his squad car. As the girls got in the car seven rebels ran out shooting shotguns. Smith returned fire with his SIG. "Hurry!" Smith cried. Sasha threw aside the wheelchair and put Ymir in the back. Then Sasha jumped in the passenger side and said "Go!" Smith gunned the engines as the windows and windshields shattered. The car roared and sped forward, police sirens wailing. Behind them two army jeeps with .30 caliber machines followed. The guns opened fire as the police car turned right. Five squad cars were waiting in the alley and they made a road block as Smith passed. Smith radioed for back-up" I need a helicopter with machine guns. These army guys are trying to kill the Empress!" The jeeps broke through the blockade and followed Smith. Sasha leaned out the window with her gun and Smith's gun and shot for the lead jeep's driver. After a few seconds Sasha retreated as .30 lead sped by. "Damn it !" Smith cried as a tire popped. "YMIRA STAY DOWN!" Sasha screamed. Luckily they were close to the police HQ (it's a block from the hospital and palace) a helicopter loomed over head and fired at the jeeps. They broke off and the helicopter escorted Smith's car. "We'd going to hold up in the old factory. I got 2,000 officers in this city and that's where we're going." Smith said. Ymira said " Smith pistols with not stop assault rifles. They must have a large amount of soldiers. I read Levi's message and the Rhodeve one. My loyal soldiers must be getting killed we need them with us."
"Already done, I hope. In case of emergency and lose of the palace we flee the old factory."
"Why?"
"Because it's a tank factory and still has tanks."
"Then the enemy are heading their too!"
"I know but what chance do we have at getting our loyal troops together!"
Sasha took the brief peace to text Sierra the recording and message. This way she'd know that Zoey was the bad guy.


The Meeting Room

Zoey sent a message to the Rhodeve HQ

To: Queen Diana

Your Majesty,
The stand-in-emperor tried to murder Ymira Everen. Luckily I stopped him but he sent out a fake call to you. The corrupt police have kidnapped Ymira. Please send troops to help us get her back

-Zoey Hanji

[Rhodevus]

Diana minimized her message tab on her desktop computer, after reading Zoey's email. She clicked on a small speaker. "Did you find out who this Zoey person is?"
From the speaker, Karchev spoke. "Yes. The Commander in Chief of the Navy."
"Thank you."

Opening back up her message window, she spoke to herself while speaking to herself. "Do these Rezuans really take me for an idiot?" In her letter, it conveyed a different message:

To: Zoey Hanji

Is Ymira okay? Do whatever you can to bring her back. Rhodevus lies with you, the true protectors of Rezua

-Queen Diana

Diana stood up quickly and rushed to the Main Office. "Get Timmel to send a team to Rezua. Extraction of Empress Ymira, under extreme enemy fire. Yes, the 47s. I need them to be on route to Rezua in 20 minutes!"

The Ile of Flowers

The 47s were a group of highly trained soldiers. Not many knew about them, but they were quite famous among the inner circles. Luckily, General Timmel was on leave on the island, and managed to tell the team their mission.
"Extract. Assess and destroy." Timmel said, as they were grabbing their gear. Those four words were enough. This was going to be an extraction mission. They were allowed to assess the situation and decide whether or not they should kill enemies on sight.

It was 15 minutes before they boarded their helicopter. It was made for long distance flights, and perfect for this type of situation. They only hoped they could reach Ymira first...

Sierra

Sierra opened her phone and read the message Sasha had sent her. She nearly fell off of her hospital bed. Limping on one leg, completely forgetting her crutches, she hopped out of her room shouting. "Get me an escort! I need to go to the military base! Get me a bloody escort!"

Doctors and nurses rushed to her. "Sierra, you are not fully healed." "Sierra, I'll get you a wheel chair." "Sierra,-"
"Just call the police or something and get me an escort. Now." She seethed.
All she knew was Ymira was in danger. And nothing was going to happen on her watch.

[Rezua]

Diana minimized her message tab on her desktop computer, after reading Zoey's email. She clicked on a small speaker. "Did you find out who this Zoey person is?"
From the speaker, Karchev spoke. "Yes. The Commander in Chief of the Navy."
"Thank you."

Opening back up her message window, she spoke to herself while speaking to herself. "Do these Rezuans really take me for an idiot?" In her letter, it conveyed a different message:

Royal Office

Zoey smiled when she read Diana's message. In reply she sent

To: Queen Diana

I thank you for your support. I don’t know of Ymira’s current status but if she is alive we will save her.

. Over national tv and radio she announced

"Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Naval Commander Zoey Hanji. I regret to inform you that stand in emperor Levi has been assassinated and Empress Ymira has been kidnapped. Corrupt police officers and soldiers have her. All citizens are to surrender their arms at a nearby army recruiter meant center and be checked to see of they are helping these kidnappers. Queen Diana has ordered this."

Riots soon broke out. Just what Zoey needed. More riots meant more soldiers, more tanks, more helicopters. In 2 hours 2,780 soldiers, 14 helicopters and 20 tanks where under Zoey’s command to control the riots.


Abandoned Tank Factory


Only about 390 soldiers escaped the palace bloodbath. However, there were rows and rows of tanks, 100 in total. Luckily the soldiers managed to get 30 tanks working and placed them in strategic areas, like entryways and such. The remaining soldiers and police had taken cover in a circle around the factory. The rain came heavier now and soaked them to the bone.
Inside there was a problem. Smith had not escaped the chase unharmed. In his left side was a fragment of a .30 bullet that had also pushed metal scraps into him. He was loosing blood quickly. “Smith stay with us.” Sasha said “Medic! Medic! Get over here!” A medic rushed over to Smith and began to treat him. “Sasha…in my car….under the seat…get the satphone. Use it…also you’re in charge now. I’m in no shape…to fight…” suddenly Smith passed out. The medic said “I need space.” Sasha rushed to Smith’s squad car and grabbed the sat phone. She called the Rhodeve HQ and told them to come through the West Entryway to get Ymira. Then Sasha went back inside. Ymira was with some other officers. Master Stg. Annie Caloren and Sgt. Dain Virgo were the highest army officers still alive. “Empress this is the only way. If you are lost so is this cause.” Annie was explaining. Ymira replied “No, I’m not leaving.”
“You must this isn’t a debate. Please.” Ymira nodded gravely.

In eight minutes Zoey’s army surrounded the factory. The tanks Zoey had were much more advanced than Ymira’s tanks. In a few seconds Zoey’s troops began firing without mercy. Cpl. Leonart was in command of a group of police officers. She kept her troops in cover as a mail storm of lead. The officer’s pistols were nearly useless but Cpl. Leonart kept firing. “Hold them off!” She shouted. Ymira’s troopers were dropping like flies. No one knew how long they could fight off Zoey’s men.

[United Soviet Jason Republic]

Jamestown, Federal Quarter:

President Mortimer sat at his desk. The Party Chairmen was on the way out. After all, their meeting was over. The President moved to pick up his tablet when he got a news alert from the Jamestown Journal. The bulletin was short.

JJN: Coup in Rezua, Naval Commander announces Queen held captive. Riots reported across the country.

Mortimer stood up quickly. His tie waved in the air. He walked over to his desk phone. Picking up the red phone he called the Ministry of Defense. He was not kept waiting.

"Yes?" the voice on the other end replied back. Their was a moment of silence. The President tried to find the right words.
"There is a report of a coup in Rezua. Have you heard of this?" the President asked the Cheif. The man was the head if the USJR defense forces. Muttering could be heard on the other line.
"Yes Sir, we just received reports of this. I have ordered the Eastern Core on a higher alert level and Skynet is analyzing the target country."
"I want three thousand marines and a task force raised and prepared to enter the international waters outside of Rezua in half an hour." the President replied sharply. "I want at least a thousand of those men ready on USJR shores to prepare for any fallout from this. I expect the air force to prepare for paratroopers. I also want fighters to patrol the waters off Rezua. Keep this under the radar." There was a pause.
"Yes sir. It will take time to prepare the Marines but the air squadron will be yours within the hour."
"I said half an hour."
"Yes sir."

Abandoned Tank Factory

Only about 390 soldiers escaped the palace bloodbath. However, there were rows and rows of tanks, 100 in total. Luckily the soldiers managed to get 30 tanks working and placed them in strategic areas, like entryways and such. The remaining soldiers and police had taken cover in a circle around the factory. The rain came heavier now and soaked them to the bone.
Inside there was a problem. Smith had not escaped the chase unharmed. In his left side was a fragment of a .30 bullet that had also pushed metal scraps into him. He was loosing blood quickly. “Smith stay with us.” Sasha said “Medic! Medic! Get over here!” A medic rushed over to Smith and began to treat him. “Sasha…in my car….under the seat…get the satphone. Use it…also you’re in charge now. I’m in no shape…to fight…” suddenly Smith passed out. The medic said “I need space.” Sasha rushed to Smith’s squad car and grabbed the sat phone. She called the Rhodeve HQ and told them to come through the West Entryway to get Ymira. Then Sasha went back inside. Ymira was with some other officers. Master Stg. Annie Caloren and Sgt. Dain Virgo were the highest army officers still alive. “Empress this is the only way. If you are lost so is this cause.” Annie was explaining. Ymira replied “No, I’m not leaving.”
“You must this isn’t a debate. Please.” Ymira nodded gravely.

In eight minutes Zoey’s army surrounded the factory. The tanks Zoey had were much more advanced than Ymira’s tanks. In a few seconds Zoey’s troops began firing without mercy. Cpl. Leonart was in command of a group of police officers. She kept her troops in cover as a mail storm of lead. The officer’s pistols were nearly useless but Cpl. Leonart kept firing. “Hold them off!” She shouted. Ymira’s troopers were dropping like flies. No one knew how long they could fight off Zoey’s men.

Dust and debris flew into the air as the 47s chopper begun its landing on top of the factory. Members were jumping out, tossing flash bangs at the enemy surrounding the building. "Roof secure!" Shouted an operative, #3.
"Open up a 10 meter safezone!" Shouted #1, as he rushed down the side of the building; down the ladder onto the ground. He pointed his gun and fired a small burst of bullets towards the incoming Rezuans. Rushing into the building, he saw Ymira surrounded by her soldiers and trustees.

#1 ran up to her and kneeled before her. "Empress. We are your Rhodeve escort. Choose 5 people to take with you. I am sorry, it is all the room we can spare. My team and I will open up a safe zone for you to reach the roof, while you make the difficult choice."

With that, he drew a pistol in one hand and his sub-machine gun in the other, and joined his team in the fire fight.

With that, he drew a pistol in one hand and his sub-machine gun in the other, and joined his team in the fire fight.

The wails of the dying echoed through Leonarts ears. She had gotten an assualt rifle and was picking off enemy Rezuans as soon as poked their heads out. 23 of Ymira's tanks were destroyed but only 5 of Zoeys where destroyed. Leonart's side was the weakest side with mostly only police officers guarding it. Two tanks rolled at Leonarts and her officers. They began firing and were killing large amounts of Leonart's police officers. One tank blew up a spot next to Leonart. She flew back and hit her back against a wall. Her right eye was a bloody mess. She couldn't fight if she couldn't look down a sight. She put her head down waiting to die when she heard crying. An office next to her was blow in half. He cried to her an she grabbe his hand.
"Ma'am help me I don't wanna die."
"I can't do anything." She sobbed
"I shouldn't be here. If only I made that college. I wanted to be a doctor. But I failed the test. So I joined the police to try to make a difference that way. But again...I failed!"

The boy no more than 18 wa dead. Leonart cried. He didn't have to die. He shouldn't have died. Leonart sobbed angrily and grabbed a neaby SAW light machine gun. God help me she thought. She didn't need her eye just point and kill them. She walked out in the open where bullets have the right of way. She screamed madly and squeezed the trigger. The bullet bounced off the tanks like nothing, an only a few hit the Reuans running behind it. Just then when all seemed lost the police copter appeared. It was strange, it such have been destroyed by now. It hooves over her as if to say to the tanks. "Yea b**** whatcha gunna do?" Two missiles shot from it's launchers and blew the tanks to pieces. However, an RPG took out the helicopter's back rotor blade. It spun wildly but lunged forward and hit the ground cockpit first, the blades still chopping claiming several victims. However Leonart and her men run into the factory as a sea of Zoeys Rezuans charged. Leonart ran for the Empress. The defenses were broken...

Ymira said "I cannot possibly choose. I'm too afraid." Smith was awake again and he said "Sasha go with Ymira you're her caretaker. I'm going to say and command." Suddenly a bloody machine gun wielding policewoman ran in shrieking "They're inside!" Smith told the two army officers, Leonart and the medic to go to the Rhoeve. Smith took the machine gun from Leonart just as bullets came from the hallway. Some of them were hit somewhere but no one was killed. "Run! Go! Run!" Smith screamed and began shooting. Ymira noticed the cigar in his mouth, something that was as mich to his image as his mustache. Time slowed, Sasha hit in the shoulder still carried Ymira. Time slowed and Ymira saw the puff of Smith's cigar, th sweat on his face, the fire in his eyes. He was alive there in that moment, probably to never live again. The group ran up the stairs and heard a loud thump, a curse, a pistol shot followed by several answering guns. They keep running...

International Waters outside of Rezua

The Soviet fleet sailed just outside of Rezua waters in a show of force. Five destroyers, two battleships, a helicarrier and small amphibious craft patrolled. Accompanying them, from the USJR mainland, fighters could be heard and seen at various times of the day. As of now the USJR did not try to enter the country's sovereign waters as the situation inside the country was unknown. Besides for social media reports little was known.

In Jamestown the President was impatient. He had heard nothing from the Rezua officials nor any other allies. It was time to make some calls. Once again the President picked up his phone. Dialing to the Ministry of International Affairs he was transferred to a line with the Rhodeven goverment.

"Hello. This is President Mortimer of the United Soviets of the Jason Republic. I wish to be patched through to the Queen or chief military official that is authorized to speak to me." The President waited. Normally he would have a secretary do this. However he couldn't waste time.

[Rhodevus]

Rezua

As Ymira and her chosen few reached the roof, the 47s started to retreat back to the chopper. #1 continued to shoot at the incoming attackers as they stared to enter the factory. "1!" Shouted #2, "Get back!" Throwing one last grenade at the entrance, #1 rushed back to the helicopter, as it started its ascend into the air. The left door was open, so that they could still shoot out of it.

After a minute, they were out of range and the door was closed. "Welcome Empress and you all to the R-47s. We are going to be bringing you to the Ile of Flowers in Rhodevus. There, you will be speaking to the Queen and Sierra, if she has been released from the hospital..."

Kingstown

"Its the president of the JR!" called down an attendant. "Wants to speak with the Queen."
"Patch him through."
The line was directed over to Diana cell-phone, as she was flying to the Ile of Flowers. "Mr. President." She said calmly, while typing on her laptop.

[United Soviet Jason Republic]

Jamestown

"Your Majesty," the President greeted back in a polite tone. "As you are aware, there is a situation developing in Rezua. So far my goverment has been unable to gather any more intelligence on the situation. As the USJR is much closer to Rezua and can act swiftly I would appreciate any information your goverment has on the current situation. Already the Ministry of Defense has deployed a task force to the International Waters outside of Rezua. More can be done if we know more about the situation and communicate with other parties involved."

Diana

"Good to hear." Diana said. "Everything you read in the news is wrong. Ymira was almost kidnapped and the Stand-in-Emperor was assassinated by the Commander in Chief of the Navy. We were able to find out about the attacks quickly and are securing the Empress, bringing her to the Ile of Flowers for safety. I fear that Rezua might have already fallen to the Naval Commander Zoey."

The President paused to take in the information.
"I understand. I will do everything in my power to correct the situation. The USJR will raise the Eastern Core combat readiness level and prepare for any further actions. You can reach me at any time." The President was preparing to hang up the phone. Already he sent a message to the Chief asking him to prepare the USJR troops for something bigger.

[Rezua]

The Factory

The smell of napalm, explosives and death hung heavily in the air. Maj. Dimtri Zechariah stood in front of the ruined factory. As far as he knew there were no survivors. Right after he called his soldiers out of the factory (after the 47s got away) jet fighters from the Aircraft Carrier Eciplse dropped napalm and all kinda of bombs on the old reigme's soldiers. All prisoners were either excuted or sent to horific prisons. He smiled at his work

In the woods a lone soldier was resting on a rock. Pvt. Jeffery Gribbs had escaped the bombing. He panted heavily since he had run as fast as he could. He had thrown off everything but his uniform, his ammo and his gun to lighten the load. However, he knew he wasn't alone. He heard three bird calls ten minutes earlier. Then he had joined in as the call was repeated many more times. Some of his comrades were out there. He had to find them.


Ymira

All was not well after they had escaped. Master Stg. Annie had slumped over and had passed on. In her back was a bullet that had gone into her lung. The adrenaline kept her going. The medic told them her name was Kathrine, Kate for short. "I'm sorry there is nothing I can so for the sergeant. The last two people I've tried to save today didn't make it."
"Don't beat yourself up. You didn't pull the trigger. It's out of your control." Sasha said. Ymira was unnaturally quiet and silently crying. "It's all my fault..."

SADS Bunker: Eastern Core Command Center

Three men sat around a desk, with a chair for the fourth man, who was standing, unoccupied. Each of them wore a different style of military uniform. Each had a tablet computer, a note pad and papers in front of them. The fourth man, the Chief, wore the most dignified outfit. He stood in front of a massive flat screen. On it was several photos, news reports and images. The white haired man dragged the first article down from the top corner and enlarged it with hand gestures.

"This is Naval Commander Zoey." he began, pointing at the outdated photo from some naval academy. "As of fifteen minutes ago the Jamestown Journal was 'leaked' that she was behind the coup currently taking place in Rezua. This information is of course true." He dragged the paper away to show more photos from social media and other outlets. Photos of riots and tanks could be seen. "Civilian insurrections have started. The Rezua military has moved to quell them." He tapped on a video of a tank approaching civilians. The link played for several seconds. "The Rhodeven goverment has evacuated the Emperess. Once again Social Media reports heavy fighting in an old factory in the run down capital. So far no movements have been recorded on the high seas by Skynet. We are running the data non stop right now." Satellite images of the capital and Rezuan bases were dragged down onto the screen. They were promptly removed by the Chief. Another drawing, a map of Rezua, was brought up. "Within the next five minutes President Mortimer will be addressing the public and giving the Commander the choice to surrender. However we have been given the green light to begin combat preparations." The map was engaged to show several arrows and numbers, representing troop numbers, forces deployed and their objectives. "Your first missions will be to destroy enemy facilities or take them peacefully if they surrender via radio. The Eastern Airforce will prepare to run non stop strategic bombing and air drops. The Eastern Navy is now approved to use a Intern. Force consisting of fifteen cruisers, five battleships, six deep ocean transports, two aircraft carriers and their arsenal ship. All strikes after we get the combat green light will be clean military strikes only." The Chief now pointed at Sanagria. "The USJR has military access and is currently shipping materials through our ally. They will not be ready for several hours. Most of our forces, besides for the air force, will be ready in the next twelve hours." The Chief paused. The three men, leaders of their branches, did not have questions. They were sent out to do their tasks.

Meanwhile, President Mortimer sent a letter to Rezua. His message would be blunt.

Code: Select all

To: Naval Commander Zoey
From: President Mortimer

Our administration have heard of your true actions and intentions. We will give you three hours to surrender yourself to the USA Criminal Court or we will be forced to take military action.

You can reach me at any time." The President was preparing to hang up the phone. Already he sent a message to the Chief asking him to prepare the USJR troops for something bigger.

"Wait!" Diana said quickly, before the president hung up the phone. "The Rezuan army does not know that Rhodevus has Ymira and is not on their side. Keep them from realizing this until the very last moment." Diana hung up the line, as the airplane began its descent into the Ile of Flowers.

Sierra
Sierra woke up back in her hospital bed. She was sluggish, a common side affect after being put into a drug induced sleep. Looking around the room, she realized where she was. "Doctor! Is Ymira safe! What is happening!" She struggled, then realized she was strapped down into the chair. Nurses came to her and checked the equipment she was hooked up to.

"Sierra, you are going to have to calm down. The Queen sent word that she will be here shortly. So will Ymira, according to her. Everything is all right."

Sierra noticeably calmed down. "Thank you." Her straps were released, so that she could stand up once more. Grabbing her crutches which were placed by her bed, she stood up and hopped towards the main room, waiting for Diana to come...

Zoey read the USRJ's message slowly. So the Jasonians would stop her, interesting.

To: The USJR

I will not surrender to you. You have kidnapped Empress Ymira. The Rhodeve will help us fight you.

-Naval Commander Zoey Hanji

Zoey once again contacted the Rezuan People:

"My fellow Rezuans. I have discovered that the USJR have Empress Ymira and have declared war on us. However, fear not the Rhodeve have sworen they will help us."

The Rezuan army was put on high alert and began to fortify the major cities and coasts. The naval was sent out to shoot Jasonian ships. However that would take time...

Ymira
The helicopter began to descend for a landing. Only Kate and Ymira were safe from injuries from the battle. Leonart would need the most help. She was shoot in the left arm, lower right side and was bleeding from her right eye. The others were hit in either the shoulder or a limb.

[United Soviet Jason Republic]

SADS Bunker:

By now the President had arrived the broadcast from Rezua was heard. Mortimer scoffed at the reply. He wanted to be on the air as soon as possible. Meanwhile the USJR continued preparations for an assault. The USJR was still moving naval units into combat range. It would take a couple more hours for them to get there. However, USJR fighter plans ran patrols in international waters. All units were given the green light to attack if fired upon. The Chief and other commanders were inside of the situation room, taking in data from Skynet and other networks, devising another plan.

President Mortimer, with his quickly made statement, went to the model office they had in the bunker. From it he gave a short address, blaming Commander Zoey for the coup. "Why would we do this to an ally? We do not have the Emperiss. The matter is clear, Commander Zoey has manipulated the Rezua goverment to his whims alone. We demand that she cede power and turn her self into the USA Court of Justice. She has refused. Her time is running out." The President went on to state that all Rezua military personel that surrendered to USJR forces or aided in the deposition of the rouge Commander would be "compensated for their valiant honor and service to their country and to Ophion."

The message was allowed to circle in the media for roughly an hour before the cyber attacks would begin. Avoiding civilian infrastructure the attacks would be directed at military utilities and communications. Meanwhile the USJR Cyber Command prepared for counter strikes. Sucpition traffic would be stopped on the webs and USJR servers were prepared for retaliation.

[Rhodevus]

The Helicopter containing Ymira landed softly on the roof of a Hospital. At the same time, Diana's car had reached the front entrance. The 47s exited the vehicle, helping out the Empress, before carefully grabbing those who were too weak to stand, and bringing them down into the emergency room.

#1 looked at Ymira and the other healthy Rezuans. "Empress, come with me, we are to meet Queen Diana and Sierra."

The soldier led the young Empress down to the elevator, where they arrived on the main floor. As the elevator door opened, Sierra's eyes lit up as she saw Ymira. "Ymira! You're safe!" She exclaimed, rushing towards her and wrapping her arms around Ymira in a tight and warm embrace. "We have so much to talk about." Sierra said.

"Yes. We do." Diana said, coming through the front door. "I think we should all find a nice quiet room to talk."

Rezua

More Rezuans were willing to listen to Rezuan media than forgein media. Many called the Jasonians lying cowards. Some listened to the Jasonians and riots broke out as citizens began to kill one another and soliders. The body count was coming into the 100s. Zoey made more speeches aganist the Jason Propoganda. Soon the riots were forcefully subdued and soldiers returned to preparing for the Jasonians (although some went rogue).

Ymira

At first Ymira had forgetton how her friend had refused her a few weeks ago and hugged her back and leaned in closer. However, she soon remembered and coughed in an excuse to pull away. "Diana before I talk about anything I need to send a brodcast to Rezua and tell my people the truth. I'm. A failure already and I cannot become a bigger one."

Diana knelt in front of Ymira, "Hey." She said calmly, trying to cheer her up. "You are not a failure. You are strong and brave. You survived an Earthquake in a torn down building. You still have time to learn. And look, you still have people. Friends who will fight for you. People who will give their lives to bring you back to where you belong." Diana stood up beside the young Empress. "You are as much a failure as a leader as you claim for yourself. Just know this. I think you are amazing." Diana smiled, holding onto her shoulder.

"And now. It is time to decide how we want you to be revealed to the public."

Ymira answered “I’m going live on tv and radio. Right now, I don’t need a speech. This ends before it gets worst.” Ymira stood up from the wheelchair given to her. She wobbled and had a pained face “And I’m going to do it under my own power-“ Ymira collapsed before she could take a step. “Nevermind. I’ll do it in the wheelchair.” Kate helped Ymira wiggle back into the chair. Ymira began to roll herself along looking up and down hallways and called back “Come on where is your auto-room? Afterword I’ll give you the talk you want Diana."

The Rhodeve showed to the audio room where she spoke

"My people I am alive and well in The Isle of Flowes. I may be broken in body but not in spirit. And I'm afraid this is what has happened to our beloved country. Army Commander Levi Rillive, who took my place when I was recovering was murdered by his and my own former friend Naval Commander Zoey Hanji. Then she tried to assassinate me. 2,390 police officers and soliders defended me so Rhoeve special forces could save me and get me to this audio room. Most of these brave Rezuans are dead. And many more were tricked into doing this. The blood spilt is not the fault of those who followed orders. Zoey Hanji is our enemy. She is trying to seize power. Do not listen to her lies. She may promise a good economy, promise you peace, promise you national pride. I and on my part have have not promised anything. I came to power without ever have even learning how to publicly speak. My approve rating is the lowest ever in the last 30 years with an alarming 59%. However I can tell you one thing. I have people I care about. You my countrymen, my sister and a close friend of mine. I may not be political enough to be Empress I'm a person like any of you. I cry and I despair as anyone does. But I am dedicated . The other day I wondered why I survived the earthquake. I was ready to give up. But them I saw a little girl in that hospital and I remembered my purpose. I must be here for my people! I have come all this way for my people. I will do all in my power to stop Zoey Hanji. My friends Police Chief Smith and those fighting with him gave selfless sacrifice to protect me. I shall you this for the people I care about; you my people. She cares nothing for you. She has used our guardians of peace (it's common Rezuan knowledge this means soliders and police) against us. She is trying to rip our family apart. Join with me and take down this dictator. This is our family! This is our nation! These are our lives! Join me not because I wear a crown but because I am a Rezuan and I have a family to protect!"
