The Battle for Humanity (Part One) (11 ratings) by C.K. Banner
Page 6 of 12 In that moment every single man, woman and child were one. Hundreds started
boarding their ships. This mission was too wide scale for the pulse satellite.
It didn’t have the power to teleport all of us. I boarded a Sky Hawk Carrier at
three thirty-two in the morning. The date was June 24th. It was a Thursday.

I had never been to Africa before all of this. In the last couple of weeks,
I’ve felt this to be my home. The wildlife, the beautiful fields. When this is
over, I made a promise to myself to live here. Hundreds of Wildebeest ran away
as we approached. By the time we had touched down, thousands of other Sky Hawk
Carriers were arriving. The air was filling up with Ranger Aircraft. And the
ground was now crawling with (J.T.) Juggernaut Tanks. This is our first
protection. About one thousand would be formed in double arcs. Their firepower
is amazing. Not only do they have your basic hell power blow them up
capabilities, but also over the last year they’ve been equipped with a new
matter disperser; the HELIX. It’s a light that makes anything in its path break
apart. Their position is known as Raleigh point E. Behind them, is a vast
infantry of blue stripes. Both on foot and in vehicles such as Battle Trucks.
These are the best of the best, carrying MAT 56’s, Omni Canons, Tech Death,
Hinders etc. Their position is Raleigh point D. If by any chance the smaller
fleets of Egaji get passed the Tanks, they have to battle with these guys.
Behind them, we have something called the Dead Zone. It’s an area that
stretches for ten miles long in which no machine, Egaji or ours can pass
through without being critically damaged. This is a safe guard, and is powered
by our satellites. This will hopefully force the remainder of them to spread
out even thinner. This is known as Raleigh point C. Behind it is where we have
our mobile infantry. Thousands of heavily armed and trained soldiers. They use
different long-range weapons such as the Sniper Canon, and the Bull’s-eye.
These guys are deadly accurate. They are at Raleigh point B. Then theirs us.
Commander Troy and I stand at Raleigh point A. Gunners are set up all through
out this area, to take out Egaji aircraft and Egaji ground forces. These
gunners are electronically operated from different bases. Very powerful as
well. I take a moment and take in the site. Marvelous.
"The Egaji will not pass our defenses Lieutenant." Said Commander Troy as he
stared off into the dark landscape. "It is something we cannot allow."
"I agree with you Commander. Hopefully we will maintain..."
"-They will not pass our defenses Lieutenant." He said sharply. "It
is an impossibility."
"Ok?" I didn’t understand what he meant.
"Come with me please." Commander Troy began to walk down to where a Sky Hawk
was landing. He motioned to the other nine Elect to follow. We walked down a
hundred meters, soldiers of the mobile infantry looking back at us. I almost
smirked at how funny I must’ve looked walking next to these monumental figures.
When we got there I noticed something peculiar about this Sky Hawk. The I.D. on
the side had the United Union Logo on it. It’s peculiar because the U.U. is our
experimental weapons developer. You usually don’t get a visit from them unless
you’re about to try some new never before used arm. As we got to the Carrier,
about thirty U.U. personnel were bringing out hover fighters. Next Page Copyright © 1999, 2000, 2001 C.K. Banner, sffworld.com. All rights reserved.
