Chapter III
The helicopter made it to the RPND Elmikey safely. As soon as it arrived Furbur, Clear, and Link headed inside. Inside there were two soldiers standing around a desk, one of them was speaking on a phone.
“We have the numbers in place, we can’t turn back now,”. Upon seeing the arrival of the three navymen the soldier put down the phone momentaraly. “Niel,” said Furbur, in recigniton of his old friend. “Hello Furbur, I have Ziehen on the phone, hes cancelling the operation,” said Niel. THey all looked shock. “Put me on the phone,” said Furbur. Niel handed over the phone. “Listen, we have everything in place for this operation. Dragon can hold the base together that’s why you put him incharge of operations there,” Furbur paused while Ziehen spoke and then hung up.
“He’s canceling it… Says that our troops would be better sent to the base to help defend it,”. No one spoke. Then the other soldier who had been with Niel spoke up, “So? The operation isn’t flawed. If we go in there and we win then we will be praised as heroes, if we don’t go in there at all we still have to deliver the troops to shore. Why not just continue the operation?,”. Everyone paused as if to consider this option. Furbur took a look at this other soldier, who he could tell by the uniform was in the air force with Niel. He glimpsed at his dogtag, it read Alex N.
“Well, Alex… We’d all be risking our careers. Ziehen is wrong to cancel the operation, he isn’t here with us, he doesn’t know firsthand what’s going on, but can we risk our careers?,”. THey all paused once again to consider this. Then Clear spoke up, “I think we should do it. Listen, BB wants us to stay in our base. If we don’t do this they’ll just attack again and again.,”.
“Then it’s settled,” said Niel. “Let’ get going! Alex, myself and another pilot by the name of Worky will be commanding 3 squads up in the air. Squads of marines will be going to shore on the western edge of the island via the deathlypads. They’ll be led by Blak Mafias and Reaperdrone. The air force will supply support on all sides of the island. We want to get going at 5 am in the morning which gives us just over 2 hours. Clear, Link, you two need to be airlifted to your separate vessels you’ll be commanding,”.
“Niel, there is a problem,” said Furbur. “K310 was supposed to take command of the DD’s on the north end of the island. He didn’t make it onto the helicopter,”. “Not a problem, a great captain, Jedimaster17, is just downstairs, I trust her completely to take command of the DDs,” said Niel. Furbur nodded in agreement, as he had met Jedi on several occasions. “Well, let’s all head off then. We can sleep tomorrow if all goes well,”.
