The War That Transcends Timelines! 148 This is War!

Location: [Motherbase]

POV: Rudolf/ All-knowing

''The industry is being retooled to meet the demands of the industrial war machine, but a lack of chromium from Turkey and Tungsten from Portugal is hampering production. If we could redirect some of the civil goods to war production we could make up for the lack of resources.'' The minister of Production and Agriculture stated. ''We still have a fiscal debt of 500 billion to pay off, we could issue public bonds to meet financial needs and also keep reserves for future investments,'' Hoffman said, wrinkles already showing on his face remembering the last war.

''We are currently mobilising all reserve units from the main army while the Organisation's army is being used to protect the 4 key bases. The airforce in local regions is already launching multiple squadrons while the navy is mobilising towards the Andes bunker complex as it is the only one with naval access.'' Ministry of Defence stated.

''WARNING MULTIPLE ENTITIES DETECTED ENTERING THE ATMOSPHERE!'' The early warning system alarmed us. ''Fuck, we haven't even replied yet!'' Rudolf exclaimed.

''Don't worry, I already prepared for this...'' Rommel said in the deadly silence.

''WARNING ALL MEN MOBILISE TO ENGAGE THE ENEMY!'' alarms in every base went off, Thousands upon thousands of large calibre guns and anti-air weaponry appeared all over the world. Large scale artillery guns aimed upwards to engage the enemies.

There was a deadly silence in every artillery encampment, ''FIRE!''

Millions upon millions of shells were launched into the air meeting the enemies head-on. At this very moment time stood still as thousands of explosion and collisions occurred in the upper atmosphere, hell rained from above as the enemy returned fire from their ships. Large beams of fire scorched the earth,

people in the millions dying every second,

destruction was sown upon the planet while soldiers desperately tried to bring people to safety.

Yet nothing was spared from this fight, nothing.

It was hell, the same hell people felt 35 years ago when nuclear devastation came from above.

People were crying, praying,

some even killed themselves.

This was something never seen before. The soldiers were fighting with every ounce of strength in their body.

''WE ARE GOING DOWN REPEAT WE ARE GOING DOWN!''

''WE NEED AIR SUPPORT!''

''WE NEED A MEDIC! PLEASE! SOMEONE! ANYONE!''

''WE ARE UNDER ATTA...''

''WE CAN'T STO...''

''MAKE IT STOP PLEASE! I DON'T WANT TO FI...''

We never stood a chance, no matter what we do the enemies just overpower us, no matter what we do, we die. This wasn't a war, this was an outright slaughter. Casualty reports flooded the motherbase, the airforce was getting beaten back every second, for every 10 fighters we can only take on of their weird contraptions. For every 1000 railguns and artillery pieces lost we could destroy one spaceship in the lower orbit. For every 100 lives, only one enemy gets killed.

''Sir?'' Rommel and Rudolf just stood there in a daze as they just watch the screen tick up with every man dead, every life lost, every fire extinguished. The man who talked them out of this daze was none other than Shadow, the main hitman for the Marshall, he who was thought of as dead. ''We need to hurry up the evacuation of the citizens and redeployment of troops.'' He said calmly, not affected by the death count.

''Yes, yes, yes, of course!'' Rudolf and Rommel said simultaneously, ''Mobilise the 1st till 10th division to the European theatre, 10th till 50th to the Asian theatre and the 50th till the 85th to the American theatre, the Oceanian theatre will be left to only the bunker complex, tell them to hunker down and wait for further instructions!'' Rommel dished out his orders very quickly.

''Mobilise the medical corps in every city to treat the wounded, move everyone to bomb shelters. Connect me to the world broadcasting system!'' I picked up the microphone clearing my throat.

''THIS IS YOUR PRESIDENT! WE ARE AT A STATE OF TOTAL WAR! PLEASE EVACUATE TO THE NEAREST BOMB SHELTERS OR EVACUATION POINTS! I REPEAT WE ARE AT WAR!'' I announced to the world that which no man, woman or child should have ever needed to hear again in their lifetime.

'' I looked deeply into everyone's eyes in this room, ''Gentlemen, from henceforth we will not rest, not sleep, not eat nor drink until this very war is over. For this is no longer a war for resources but a war for our very own survival!'' I announced to all the ministers.

Time: 30 minutes after the decision was made

Location: [Motherbase]

POV: Zulu

All secret agents not on duty and relevant to the current operation have been gathered in front of me in the main hall. Behind me hangs the flag of the organisation with the portrait of the Marshall. 'It is time, in 30 minutes you chosen 1000 men will be at the forefront of operation Zero. It is your duty to protect the citizens of this nation during evacuation. Remember, there is no turning back nor surviving this mission.'' I picked up a syringe with a purple liquid inside of it, ''The Marshall has explicitly stated that unless the very fate of this planet hangs on it you cannot use this liquid. I say today is the day, the day we protectors of the dark will step into the light!'' I announced to the 1000 men in front of me.

''This liquid will change your DNA to the very core, it will give you superhuman, no, inhumane strength. Using the special equipment given to use with this it will allow you to be more deadly than a nuclear bomb, sadly the effects will only last for 1 hour and after which your body will instantly die as your very own life force is used to fuel this might...''

I put my hand on my heart,

''FOR WHO DO WE FIGHT?'' I shouted, ''FOR THE MARSHALL!''

''WHY DO WE FIGHT?'' I shouted louder, ''TO PROTECT THAT WHICH THE MARSHALL HAS BUILD!''

''AND HOW DO WE DO THAT!'' I shouted even louder, ''TO DIE IS TO LIVE, TO FIGHT IS TO THRIVE, THROUGH BATTLE WE ARE HARDENED AND THROUGH BATTLE WE SHALL DIE!''

''IN THE MARSHALL WE TRUST!'' I finally shouted at the top of my lungs. ''IN THE MARSHALL WE TRUST!'' They replied, injecting the serum directly into their veins after which the turned 180 degrees walking into the dark hallway leading towards the rapid launch system.

A tear rolled down my eyes as I saw the most loyal beings on this planet march to their deaths, one last fight, one last fight for glory!
