I'm sure I will keep tinkering with it as I always do, but it feels good to finally have the basic outline of my factbook summary finished! Rejoice at my overcoming of writer's block!!

(now for the long awaited, shorter due to allowing interaction and allowing me to have time to adjust for said things to occur.)

"Admiral, the human fleet is approaching. Though seemingly the other half of the human's fleet is not engaging us. Orders?" the Gray deck officer asked as he looked up from his console. the admiral would look ahead at the Hixxian and order ships, before turning his eyes to the approaching fleet.

"kill them all." the admiral replied. "not one ship is to remain. we'll blow their orbital defenses. for now however, destroy the approaching fleet and prepare a invasion force."

"Where will the initial invasion take place sir?" the deck.

the admiral would glance at the planet's scanned map on the larger console. he'd slammed his finger on the continent of Midteshima. "A center strike to secure a base of operations planetside in the center of this world. from there we will make this operation run like clockwork. The skies will turn for the grays."

The clash within the system commenced as the Gray Fleet engaged with the Order Planetary Defensive Navy, unleashing devastating firepower upon each other. The Order forces utilized railguns and chain cannons, while the Grays countered with plasma and advanced energy weapons.

Amidst the Order's defenses, alarms resounded throughout the Valgoza islands as personnel hastened to ready the limited orbital defense cannons. These colossal cannons required several men to load ammunition the size of a tractor, which was fed into an automatic reloading system through a chain mechanism. Sirens blared across the installations, summoning Order soldiers—both seasoned professionals and conscripts—to their battle stations, poised for impending commands.

In the orbit of odenava, the battle above raged furiously between the order and the grays. however as expected the order defense fleet was eventually shattered. The debris of some of the order frigates would begin to descend in a fiery blaze in the world's orbit as the gray transport began to descend on mass. the transports were detected by the Order's radar team at Fort Taras in the Valgoza islands. the orbital defense canons would begin to fire, with large blue beams shooting into the air, blasting down the smaller transports that were caught in it's line of fire.

At Midteshima the sirens blared in intensity as the officers began to bark orders. soon, Kai's group was encountered by an officer who pointed at them.

"You!" he shouted. "Yes you and you and you. Yes, the whole lot. You are to follow me! I am commandeering your squad here to fill up the flak turret crew numbers until further notice."

the officer quickly turned around and began to walk off, expecting the group to follow him. He would eventually lead them to the nest of spaced-out turrets that were dug into the ground with their turrets aimed to the sky.

"Your job is simple. We do not expect any friendly air support so until one of us says otherwise, shoot anything in the sky you see save for any wildlife." the officer said presenting the flak turret. "This model here is nick named the Icarus. these B@$^@&#s are going to learn they flew close to the sun today. you are to shoot them down at all costs. Who ever is to pull the trigger listen very closely, do not hold down the trigger for more than 15 seconds. 15 seconds of firing, 15 seconds of respite. anymore is going to damage or possibly destroy the barrel. if that happens im shooting the shooter on the spot. so take that as your only warning. this equipment here is valuable as its all we have at this moment. So for the love of whatever God or Gods you believe in, do not be a fool and destroy what could be our life and death situation. Any questions conscripts before i leave, or make your peace with your gods."

"Uhh...how do we-" One of Kai's group pauses, as he sees the rather intimidating man look at him. "Never mind..." The officer grunts.

As the officer leaves, Kai faces his mercs. "Okaÿ, as much as I want to test zis 'uge rods we 'ave, as you can see, I'm not built for aim in AA combat" He points to his left eye patch. "Mercer, you take ze gun, you heard the man said." he points at one of the men as he nods and takes a seat on the flak.

"Leeroy," He looks at the merc earlier who was going to ask a question. "You go and spot for Mercer, " Kai looks at the sky as debris falls. "The rest maintain overwatch for anything that tries to get comfy." He aims slings his issued rifle and smirks.

[As Nol approaches, he can see Sephynne engrossed with an ongoing conversation over the phone.]

Sephynne: [Her brow furrowed in a look of agitated concentration] ...I want the Deathless back in Angelan airspace as soon as possible. The Kaiser's family is onboard and Signals Intelligence has word that the Grays know it. [She pauses] Do not stop in the Selaph Belt under any circumstances. Vailhess Mining will just have to wait, or alternatively, they have more than enough fuel for three months of non-NLS travel. [Another pause] Do not engage the Grays unless they encroach upon Angelan borders. We have enough troubles at home as it is. [She glances up] I have to go. [Hangs up, now speaking to Nol] Did you meet with the Võlutaars again? What did they say?

"I'm lucky to say, we're not expecting any more 'special visits' with the sisterhood for now." Nol looks at Sephynne, his face a mix of relief and well, it also looks like he gotten more problems than answers. "It's complicated," He says as he notices Sephynne's expression. He wasn't in the mood to hide his thoughts right now, and considering he was talking to sephynne. A break was needed after that confrontation he just had. "We can talk in the car, I'd rather be away from this place, no offense."

Walking past Sephynne he pulls up his phone and texts a coded message to the LDC network. It was going to be a long day of debriefing once he gets home, he might as well give them a snippet of what he's about to say.

The skies were littered with the invasion force. the gray transports were in great numbers, countless as the eyes could see. As Midteshima was in view, the blast from Fort Taras could be seen from a distance to the east at the Valgoza islands. The grey warship beyond orbit that was hit sustained significant damage. the captain held onto his dashboard as the ship rocked and for a brief moment the artificial gravity field of the ship was turned offline until the systems recalibrated. as the Gray captain adjusted himself, he would slam his fist on the console as he spoke.

"Admiral! We took damage and our hull at the moment is at risk for being compromised. those defenses on those islands are too great to ignore for us!" he bellowed over the Gray communication frequency. "We won't be able to take too many hits if this keeps up! My men will need those orbital defenses silenced!"

the gray admiral would look at his console as he observed the planetary map. the gray snarled in frustration. what would have been otherwise an easier invasion of Midteshima would now have to be delayed. but the gray captain was right. the defenses would have to be silenced. while he did not know exactly what, or in this case, who did this, he knew the islands is where the damage came from, thus had to be silenced. He opened communication with the transport vessels heading to Midteshima.

"Battle Group C and D diverge from main target." the admiral commanded. "You are to engage and silence the orbital defenses at the islands to the east. we must maintain our naval force to proceed with the next phase."

soon after that, the back half broke off from the main body and began to head east. Kai's group would hear the distant roaring of the AA infront of them and see the blazing streaks of light go to the skies. as the rounds errupted they would give off light highlighting the gray transports.
