Flint woke up early, he rolls over and kisses Lady Jaye waking her up she rolls over and kisses him back on the lips. They get out of bed and go into the kitchen; Lady Jaye puts on pot of coffee as Flint sits at the table reading the paper. It was Fourth of July one of the few times of year where the Joes get time off
"So Allie, what should we do today?" he asked
"Well Dash, we could to go to the beach and then the fireworks" she responded
"And then we could make our own fireworks" Flint suggested as he grabs her and kisses her
Flint's cell phone beeps, he goes over and picks up the phone
"It's a text from Hawk" said Flint
"Oh no not today it's our day off" Lady Jaye responded
"He says it's urgent" said Flint
Disappointed the couple reluctantly showered and got dressed and headed to the Pit
The Pit, Location Unknown
7:00 am
The Joes are seated in the briefing center, the wave of disappointment fills their faces as their day off has been halted by this sudden emergency interruption. Hawk goes up to the podium addresses them
"I apologize for summoning you all on your holiday, but a real crisis has been brought to our attention" he said sounding serious
"Is it Cobra again?" asked Duke
"I'm afraid it's much worse, NASA has spotted what appears to be Drones heading toward Earth" Hawk responded
The image of the world map appears on the screen with moving dots moving towards it, Mainframe gets on the podium to explain the situation
"According to this map the Drones seems to heading to every major city on Earth"
"Which means in the United States, New York, Los Angeles, and Washington D.C" said Hawk
"Are you saying that we could be in for an alien Invasion?" asked Lady Jaye
"I'm afraid so Allison, which is why we have to move fast as we speak those cities are being evacuated" said Hawk
"What can we do sir?" asked Flint
"I want you all to assist in the Evacuation" Hawk responded
Hawk decided to put two teams together, Stalker will lead one team in New York and Duke will lead the second team in Los Angeles. The Joes suit up and get ready to deploy to their locations, Flint and Lady Jaye are summoned into Hawk's office
"I called you two in here because I have important assignment for you" said Hawk
"Yes Sir, anything you need Sir" said Flint
"I need you two to Assist Flagg in evacuating the President" said Hawk
The Rest of the Joes are in the locker room getting their weapons and ammo as they prepare to do battle. Tunnel Rat was sitting on the bench with a worried look on his face, Beachhead and Cover Girl notices and they both go over to see what's wrong
"Are you okay Rat?" asked Beachhead
"It's my parents they're in New York" said Tunnel Rat
"Don't worry Nicky, I'm sure they've been evacuated" said Cover Girl
"Courtney's right your folks are safe and Sound" said Beachhead
Suddenly the Joes are all summoned back into the briefing center, they watch the screen as the as the alien drones have landed on Earth and started attacking all the major cities. The Joes look in horror as the drones cause major destruction
"This has now become a war" said Hawk
