Please note that this was written while I was still an Ensign, so I left it that way throught the story to avoid confusion. ___________________________________________________________________________ Operation Pheonix: Into the Madness (pt1) I had just finished adding some extra touches to my battlearmor, and was on my way back to the piramid when my Jihadlinker went ballistic. I looked at the display, I had around seven thousand messages from mailbomber@xhirq.fleet.mil. I erased them, the message wasn't important. I checked the next message, it was from the duty officer here at HQ. A massive invasion fleet is on it's way. "I'd better get to the Ellipsoid.", I said to myself. On my way, I made the mistake of reading the last message in the spooler. I nearly beat my Jihadlinker to an electronic pulp when the image came on the screen. "Save it for the battlefield Ensign...", I ordered to myself. A few hours later: Two miles south of town, I waited in silence as the wind filled with thick snow. Inside my Reaper-Class armor detailed with the MK dragon (and a special surprise), I was meditating, focusing my mind and my chi, when I heard it.... the infernal war-chant. Soon they were in visual range, brightly colored spongin forces accompianed by the hideous bots. "It has begun......" I fired my both wrist mounted blasters at one of the first groups of spongin to get in range. In a few seconds half of them were feeding worms and the other half was firing back with conventional, limited range weaopns. With a thought the laser-blades extended and I ran in on the dazed group. I honed in on one sponge in light armor who was now stuck out in front of the pack after I had blown his cover to pieces. Two others ran in to defend him, but a couple photon grenades held them off while I chopped up thier comrade. I turned to get the other two only to find them joined by five more. "Well, It's gonna be a long one, I'll need some tunes." Set music: "Sad but True" -Metallica "Now which one of you wants it first...."
