"so in short, it's basically this prince needs to be on the throne within 3 years or things go tits up." Sam commented.

[Kane]

"Yep, the spire acts as a gateway flooding our world with magic but without the correct blood, then we get a cataclysmic chain reaction, total posatronic reversal" The Blue knight said

"Basically a big boom" The Green knight said

[spaceflyer]

Sam frowned a little. "I see." she said at last. "I wonder... if the archduchess if trying to prevent this by digging up the artifacts and building those devices..." she hypothesised.

[Kane]

"You never know" The black Knight said

[spaceflyer]

"Indeed, ahh well." Sam suddenly felt Cho tap her three times. "Excuse me." she said as she disappeared below, after about 2 minutes she came back up. "sorry about that."

[Kane]

Son a city was in site it wasn't very visible but there was a large palace in the centre which could just be made out.

[spaceflyer]

Sam got out a pair of binocular's to look closer before putting them away again. She said down into the depths "Mark on the map, city on the horizon. No doubt capital."

[Kane]

However as they got closer and the tree cleared away, they could see fire raining down in form of ignited boulders and flaming arrows. Viscount city was under attack.

"What the hell is going on why would anyone be doing this? there hasn't been war in years" The Blue Knight said

"Indeed so who would..?" The Green Knight was cut off by the sight of the Prince galloping off towards the city at full speed.

"Prince wait.." The Blue Knight's cries were in vain the Prince was already galloping at full speed.

The Three Knights gave chase.

[spaceflyer]

Cho was heard sighing. "Major, persue. Assist if neccessary." She simply ordered. The Command Vehicle suddenly began to move at full speed towards the city.

[Kane]

The Prince eventually reached the gates which lay in ruins. He could see his own soldiers fighting with attackers wearing black robes with red clouds on them. They were skilled, they were fast in dodging blows then killing the guardsmen. The Prince sped through the streets straight towards a black tower that stood above even the palace. When he reached the entrance he leapt off of his sword, drew So'unga and killed two of the attackers that leapt at him.

He then ran up the stairs and through the towers open door.

[spaceflyer]

SAm's Command Vehicle stopped by a clearing. "Dropship Toronto. Deploy those forces you have, I'm evac'ing the director." CHo blinked in surprise as the commando's escorted her out as the dropship came in to land with two squads of commando's and the scout ATU's. She soon found herself boarding it as well, while the troops came off.

"Our mission's clear." Sam ordered them. "Assist in bringing down these attackers. Let's move!" With that Sam hopeed down into the depths of the CV and her force began to move towards the front gate, the first two attackers were mown down by the scout ATU's as the commandos began to pick off as many attackers that were in range.

[Kane]

When the attackers found themselves under attack by the corporation forces they quickly finished off any guards they were fighting and turned they're attention to the corporation forces. They gather flames and ice around they're hands launched them at the corporation forces in retaliation.

The Prince began to make his way up the tower killing any attackers in his way. Suddenly small meteors the size of water melons began raining down upon the city.

[spaceflyer]

The corporation forces were out of range of the meteors hitting the city, but the attacks hit the armour of the CV and the ATU. Sam was quick to check the armour status, the CV had taken little damage (Afterall, it's a heavily armoured bear of a vehicle.) The ATU's however had taken damage on their front two vehicles. The commando's had fortunately taken cover, as they quickly fired back, getting headshots and some hitting the legs of the attack, the ATU's opened fire as well. Even though they had taken fire, they were determined not to go down that easily.

[Kane]

The attackers then changed tactics, alternating between fire, ice and lightning. Although they suffered casualties they increased the intensity of their attacks. Until reinforcements were ready to arrive.

The Prince finally got to the top of the tower where stood nine Sages in a circle. In the centre was a man with black robes but his clouds were purple coloured.

"Are you the one behind this?" The Prince asked levelling So'unga at him.

The man said nothing and in the blink of an eye he was behind the Prince who received a sharp but powerful kick to the back which sent him skidding to the edge of the tower. He stood up and used the Dragon flame but the strange man deflected it with one swipe of his hand.

'To deflect the Dragon flame with one hand must mean this guy has a lot fo magical power backing him up but who is he?' The Prince thought to himself

[spaceflyer]

The corporation forces had prepared reinforcements as well. The ATU's were pulling away, the CV and commando's were also reversing, keeping the firepower up.

Another dropship was seen coming in, this time dropping 2 light ATU's and a repair STU, while the scouts boarded. Cho had appeared on the screen. "Major, I'm granting these units for you, Use them wisely." Cho closed the channel. The ATU's proved more formidable to the attacks as their chainguns started to mow through the lines of the enemy ranks. Although they took damage, their armour helped in defending them. The Repair STU positioned itself behind this flank, set itself up and began the repair beams onto the ATU's.

[Kane]

The attackers then retreated into the city, the meteor shower lessened until all of the attackers had bunkers themselves isnide Viscount. The meteor shower then began to come closer to the ATU's. The attacker managed to launched the odd lightning spell from the top ramparts before ducking behind the stone wall again. .

[spaceflyer]

Sam noticed this trick, a good idea meaning she had to adapt (Not one of the corporation's forces best points, but they do try). She had the commando's picked off any who would dare poke their head up from the ramparts. The Meteors sam found to be annoying, until she had an idea. One of the 4 ATU's in each sqaud were ordered to fire at the meteors, their chainguns could handle it, or at least break them up lessening the damage. The Corporation forces though, weren't moving into the city.

[Kane]

The attackers then fled into the streets themselves. None were on the ramparts any more. A giant steel gate arose from the ground blocking the entrance.


The Prince collapsed into unconsciousness as the man he was fighting kicked him him in the gut. Before he fully went unconcious hwoever the man spoke.

"Remember my name it is Madara" He said then jumping off of the tower along with the sages who followed.

All landed safely on their feet at the bottom. Madara walked towards where the steel gate had been erected. The meteor shower soon died out.

[spaceflyer]

The ATU's stopped firing. Sam had ordered the troops to move to higher ground, mainly to see what was happening.

[Kane]

Madara went to a nearby commander who saluted.

"Let us leave we can return for the Key later" Madara ordered

"Yes sir" The Commmander said and then shot a spell up into the sky which formed into a red cloud. The Attackers then began to gathered near the main gate that had been blocked off by a steel gate.

Madara approached the steel gate and stopped in front of it. He punched it with his fist and it promptly fell to pieces. he then stepped out of the city casually. His army had not followed yet and were still hiding inside the city walls.

[spaceflyer]

Sam noticed. "hold fire. I don't like it." she ordered her troops. Who obeyed, knowing full well anybody who could do that was not wise to tempt fate with.

[Kane]

Madara looked straight at Sam for a few seconds before vanishing and re-appearing in front of her.

"This si your only warning if you or your force interfere again you will all die" Madara warned in a cool voice

[spaceflyer]

Sam told him. "I will say the same to you. Intervene in our affairs and we will attack you."

[Kane]

"Your affairs do not interest me at the moment and my plans will come to fruition, the people you fought today were merely rookies and this was just a training exercise, my true forces are far more powerful" Madara said "And my true goals will soon come to light, but then it be too late to stop me"

Madara then vanished. His forces disappeared into red smoke.

[spaceflyer]

Sam watched this. "Ugh, let's find those knights." she commented ordering the troops to take position at the edge of the city as her command vehicle entered the city itself.
