Prologue: Insertion

Date: January 28, 2778

Time: 0500

Location: Epsilon Eridani System, Planet Leben, 2 kilometers outside Pelzigan capital Wächter

"Sergeant Ishimura, we're 2 Kilometers out, ETA is 10 minutes, get your men ready!" said the voice over the intercom. The Cabin shuttered a little as the dropship made a slight course adjustment. Ishimura, a wolf Pelzigan with red eyes and red ancient Pelzigan markings on his arms stood up and looked around, towards Kijani and nodded, the white Liger nodded back, his blue eyes shining in the dark cabin and his light blue markings on his arms glowing a little. Akutenshi looked towards Lupin, The human with his green eyes and pale skin nodded towards him, no markings showed on him, yet. He then looked at the lone female of the group, Miranda, a white and red tiger, with black eyes and black markings, she nodded towards him and reached underneath her seat and pulled out an MI-57, light pulse rifle and began checking it over. The cabin shuttered more and Akutenshi could hear the sounds of anti-air fire and the distant explosions.

"ETA 6 minutes! Anti-Air is getting thick Sergeant Ishimura, your mech squad is already en-route to the rendezvous point."

"Understood" Akutenshi said as he reached up to the rack above the seating and pulled out two swords and sheathed them, reached back up and grabbed up two LR9M, two rapid fire pistols and holstered them as well. "Listen up, our job is simple. Go in, rendezvous with Cale and his team, escort any and all caravans to the Evac point, then pull out!" he stopped for a minute and looked around, the Pelzigans around him looked around, their eyes betrayed how they felt. Leben was the Pelzigan home world, it was also home to the Guardians, a small handful of Humans and Pelzigans capable of wielding the life force of the beings and the planet around them and use it as a weapon.

It was where his whole group had lived and trained at. "Now, I want you guys to pay attention. Just because we're pulling out doesn't mean we're leaving the planet. Serenity is in orbit and awaiting our return, once we get back on board she will engage her cloaking and remain in orbit so as to monitor Lothian movement both in orbit and planet side. Once reinforcement from the Sol System Armada get here, they will begin a full orbital bombardment on Lothian encampments. But until then our main goal is to Evac any and all civilians and return to Serenity until they get here."

The battle was grim, the Lothian forces had token them by surprise somehow. He continued with the debriefing. "So" he said finishing the debrief "any questions?" they all shook their head. "Good, lock and load!" everyone else began grabbing their equipment when he heard something, he didn't know what it was, but it slowly grew louder and louder, like a freight train. His eyes widened. "Everyone hold on!" the entire cabin shook violently as a blinding light came from the cabin and suddenly, a loud high pitched screaming noise came from it.

Akutenshi covered his ears as he reached the door leading to the cock pit and opened it, what he saw scared him, the pilots where dead, the cockpit was just about gone as well. He quickly shut the door and went to the other side of the cabin. The ship had entered Auto-Pilot if the pilots had gotten killed. the Neuro-System that synced the pilots up to the ship had a fail-safe that, when the pilots life signs went, the ship would enter an auto-pilot, the only bad thing is that, seeing as the ship was outdated, it would only go for another few minutes. "Let's go people! Get those suits on! we need to jump before this bird goes down!" the whole group rushed to put on their Drop Suits, a suit that was meant to allow the user to drop from a high altitude and allow them to land in a location, somewhat of a quick drop in case drop ships weren't usable. The suits could also allow the users to jump from a low orbit position. All four of them prepared to jump off the bird. Akutenshi went up and pushed the switch and opened the hatch showing AA fire all round them. Off in the distance you could see multiple firefights and in the sky's, thousands upon thousands of ships fighting each other with a few distant nuclear explosions from ship reactors that had gone critical. Several LA95 Rapid Fire Jets, or LA95RFJ's, flew past the bird and dropped their payloads off in the distance on the Lothian's. "On my mark!" Akutenshi said as he got in the ready position. "Three, two, one, JUMP!" they all leaped off the dropship and began their decent towards the planet's surface.
