CHAPTER ONE

Prologue - Blackout At Quatar

"Sarah," William Lennox said urgently. "If you can hear me, I love you and I'll be home soon!"

His wife Sarah frowned worriedly, and glanced at their baby daughter, Annabelle, just before the screen went black.

Back in Quatar, William went outside, as the other soldiers crowded around the helicopter that had just landed, the one that wasn't supposed to be there.

He stared, as the helicopter transformed - into a giant robot.

Things got kind of hectic after that. The robot, whoever or whatever it was, was equipped with heigh-grade guns and missile launchers, and began blowing up everything in its path to get to the main communications room, where it began hacking into the military files and downloading data, but the server was shut off by the military.

William and a small group of military soldiers managed to get away, just before the entire base was blown to pieces. They escaped just barely with their lives - and a single photo taken of the giant killer robot.

What had just gone on, none of them knew.

But, it was only the beginning.
