This is going to be a very unique crossover story dealing with military invasions and war, featuring characters from the worlds of Doctor Who, Merlin, Primeval, Scooby Doo, and Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy along with a number of my own characters. There will be a lot of hardships they will have to face during the course of this story, and possibly some character death along the way. I should mention that some of the dialogue is in German, but also included are their translations within the text.
I do not own the majority of the characters, only the plot is mine, I hope you like it.
Prelude to War
In a remote building in the middle of nowhere, a group of people were meeting to plot a great evil. The interior was no bigger than a one room shack, about fifty square feet in size. In the center was a large square table, about four square feet in size, it was made of a cheap particle board that had a faux granite cover over it and a number of maps with certain areas marked on it. One of the kingdom of Camelot, one of a town called, "Peach Creek", a city by the coast called "Crystal Cove" and a large deserted island.
Around the table stood four men and two women, three of the men were wearing military dress uniforms, two a dark gray with the gold braids and insignias of a brigadier general and a major general and one black with the braids, and insignia of a brigadier general. The First officer in gray was Major General Emmerich Ringe, an average size man with short, brown hair, and a clean shaven square jaw.
The second man in gray was Lieutenant General Hans Fechter, a tall thin man who had brown graying hair and a graying walrus mustache. Fechter was a career military man who had served his country for twenty-five years and was on the verge of retirement. The officer in black was Major General Rudolf Metzgar, a short stocky man who was balding in patches on his head that made him look like someone had run him over with a gas reel lawn mower. He had a clean shaven angular jaw and wire framed eyeglasses perched on his nose. Metzgar was the commander of part of the military arm of the "Geheime Kaiserliche Garde" or GKG which was the dreaded elite guard unit of the kaiserlichen Armee.
The fourth man was wearing a black suit and tie with a head of short blond hair and an angular face. He went by the name, "Roger Lehrer ". The first woman was a curious person, dressed in what could only be described as a medieval dress, it was dark red with gold braids in very fancy patterns along the waist, chest and sleeves. She had an angular jaw and long, flowing blonde hair. This was Morgause, a high priestess of the Old religion. The other woman dressed in all black with short, dark brown hair and a square jaw, This was Helen Cutter.
"Herren, Damen, haben wir drei Bereiche, die auf unserer Liste für viele Jahre gewesen. Die Städte Peach Creek, Crystal Cove, und dem Königreich Camelot. Priesterin Morgause, wollen Sie ergreifen sie Camelot. Frau Schneider, Sie wollen Crystal Cove und Peach Creek ergreifen sie. Herr Lehrer, was ist Ihr Ziel?" General Fechter said beginning the meeting. Everyone paused as General Ringe translated, "Gentlemen, ladies, we have three areas that have been on your lists for many years. The cities of Peach Creek and Crystal Cove, and the Kingdom of Camelot. Priestess Morgause, you want to take Camelot, Frau Cutter, you want Crystal Cove and Peach Creek. Herr Lehrer, what is your goal?"
"Yes," came Morgause's response; "I came here to ask for your assistance with taking control of Camelot from the tyrant Uther Pendragon and his son Arthur."
Lehrer and Helen looked at each other, nodded and Helen was the first to respond, "We both want the same thing, to control Peach Creek and Crystal Cove." After a pause, General Fechter asked with some skepticism, "Was ist die strategische Bedeutung dieser Städte?" Translating, General Ringe said, "He is asking what their strategic significance is."
"Strategically," Lehrer replied; "they mark a bridge point if you will, into an entirely different dimension." They paused while General Ringe translated for the other two officers, "Ist das ein Witz?" General Fechter looked at them like they were crazy; "Ich habe Besseres zu tun, als zu hören tosuch Unsinn!"
"The General does not quite believe you, he's skeptical." Ringe said briefly translating. Lehrer and Helen paused then Helen said, "I can understand your skepticism general, what I am telling you is absolutely true, I have the technology to give you the advantage you are looking for over your enemies. I have the ability to open gateways to those areas for your men to go through, and I will supply my own troops to the cause to provide security for the checkpoints." After Ringe translated what Helen had said, General Fechter turned to them and said, "Können Sie beweisen, Ihre Forderung?"
"He wants you to prove what you claim." Ringe translated, to which Helen responded by taking a strange instrument out of her pocket, "This device can open a doorway to any point in time and to any dimension. Observe."
"Diese Vorrichtung kann eine Tür zu jedem Zeitpunkt und an jeder Dimension zu öffnen. Beobachten." Ringe translated as Helen pushed a few buttons and a second later, a ball of shimmering light, looking like it had many broken crystals floating inside it appeared pulling a pen that was laying on the table into it.
"Ausgezeichnet!" Metzger said staring at it almost drooling. General Fechter stood there frozen at what he saw in front of him. "Wie viele Soldaten haben Sie?" He said breaking his silence, Ringe translated and Helen replied, "One thousand, I can send Two hundred fifty to aid in the capture of Camelot, two hundred fifty to Peach Creek, another two hundred fifty to Crystal Cove and I will keep the other quarter to the island which can act as our staging area and headquarters."
"Eintausend, kann ich Zweihundertfünfzig in der Erfassung von Camelot zu helfen, zweihundertfünfzig zu Peach Creek, ein weiteres zweihundertfünfzig Crystal Cove senden und ich werde die anderen Viertel auf der Insel, die als Staging-Bereich und unser Hauptquartier handeln halten können ." General Ringe translated.
"Sechzigtausend Männer insgesamt. Allgemeine Metzger hat zwanzigtausend Mann zu diesem Projekt zu begehen. Die vier sind Sie verantwortlich für irgendwelche Ergebnisse, und wenn der Sechzehnte Kavallerie wird in sie gezogen werden Ihre Köpfe werden auf der Linie."
"The General says he will commit his corps, and will have General Metzger deploy his men to the locations you indicated."
To this, Helen Cutter, Morgause and Lehrer smiled and the six began planning each phase of the operation.
The Doctor: Next time, the invasions begin.
Arthur: Tune in next time to see what happens next.
