Prelude to the War
Oct. 11th, 2009 08:00 pmLt. Eva Lee: Commander, good morning. We have instituted the president's emergency Lazarus Protocol. I'm Lieutenant Eva; The intel officer assigned to your command. Since you're the only commander left alive, I'm pretty lucky to have a job. It appears we have suffered a full scale Soviet invasion. Nearly all of our major cities are under siege and our forces are in complete disarray.
Lt. Eva Lee: [gets a signal on her headphones] Hold on commander, I'm getting a special transmission from General Carville at the Pentagon.
Gen. Ben Carville: I hope you're rested and ready commander. As of 0800 hours you're in control of every satellite, base, tank, airplane, enlisted man, woman and child, in the Eastern United States. You answer to the president, and you answer to me. Your ops officer with your lifelines will be the Lieutenant. Your point man for this mission will be Special Agent Tanya.
Special Agent Tanya Adams: General, I hope that our commander is up to speed, because we have no time to waste.
Gen. Ben Carville: I'm sure she has every confidence in you commander.
Special Agent Tanya Adams: Oh you're sure. Well, it's not your life that's on the line out here.
Gen. Ben Carville: [laughs slightly] She's the best there is. But, you will get along better with the Soviets. You'll get started immediately. First stop, New York. The lieutenant will give you the details.
Lt. Eva Lee: Not long ago, the soviets have an amphibious landing on Manhattan island and their using their ground troops to systematically take over the city. Fortunately, we still have a hold on Fort Bradley, but our comlink has been severed. If you can get agent Tanya into Bradley, she'll re-establish the link.
Special Agent Tanya Adams: Commander, there are four dreadnoughts in the water near Liberty Island: if we do not take care of them, they will just wipe out Fort Bradley the moment the comlink comes back online.
Lt. Eva Lee: [disbelieving] And you think you can take them out on your own, Agent Tanya?.
Special Agent Tanya Adams: [laughs] Not on my own, but close to it, sugar. Commander, get me a hovercraft transport and explosives enough to breach the hulls of those ships. I can handle the rest, you prepare your troops to retake the city...
