It Begins
/Zak's POV/
It was a rainy day at the Saturday house. The rain tapped against the window of my room. I sure am glad the new house was built strong. I thought. Wonder what everyone else is up to? I jumped off my bed and walked out of my room, nearly running into Fisk. "Sorry! Didn't see ya there Fisk." I said, stepping around him as I went. Fisk said "Whatcha doing?" "I'm seeing what everyone is doing" I replied. I found Mom and Dad working in the lab. They looked like they were doing more research on the origin of Kur. My origin. I thought. The fight with Argost ended 5 years ago in Antarctica with the discovery of me being Kur. Since then, my parents have been trying to figure out why Kur is me. I left them to it. I found Zon flying out in the rain trying to fish in the nearby stream. Komodo was curled up asleep on his rug in the living room. I found Doyle cleaning his mercenary gear in his room. I decided to challenge Fisk to a race on the Xbox 360. Outside something was hiding out of sight, waiting for its' chance to strike.
/Sayre's POV/
"So why do we have to go check this area out again?" I asked. My squad had been chosen to search a forested area where sightings of Ordo Ferrum troops were reported. Arrayed around me were my fellow squad mates and squad leader. "Our division is the closest to the reported area and our squad was the only one ready to go with Ranger Company's 3rd squad." said my sister Asagi. She was our squad's scout. She also happened to be a rare breed of Zintari. We were flying to the area in one of two Storm Dropships. Each dropship could carry a squad of 15 troopers. "We're almost to the drop zone!" yelled the pilot. "Remember to check your line of fire and make sure you have ammo in your weapons!" my squad leader Christopher said. He was mainly talking to the 3 newbies that were added last week. I checked my gear out. My katana was strapped to my back, extra ammo was in my vest pockets, and my weapon was currently set on safe. Others around me were doing the same. We had trained for instances such as this, but this was the first time they were sent out in such a small force. Please let this be a false run. she thought. Her last run had gone badly, with 43 dead, 104 wounded, and 11 missing. She was anxious to get this over with.
/Ordo Ferrum Lieutenant and his Company/
His company moved up to the edge of the forest surrounding the house. "Alright men, Lord Argost has trusted this task to us. Info team head to the lab the minute the fight gets going. Everyone else, slaughter all who stand in your way!" he yelled. "HUAH!" his men screamed. "Sir, incoming Storm Dropships!" yelled his scanner trooper. Damn, were they already on to us he thought. "Bazooka men move up! Take those dropships down!" he yelled. They moved up, zeroed in on the dropships as they were landing, and pulled the trigger.
/Sayre's POV/
"MISSILE!!!!!!!!!!!" screamed the co-pilot. "Bravo Two, get your men out of there!" A missile slammed into Bravo One. The hover engines exploded, causing the whole thing to catch fire. The cockpit exploded as well as the drop ramp. Some troops jumped out, 4 of them on fire, before the whole thing blew. "Move! Move! Move!" my squad leader screamed. We jumped from the dropships rear ramp and scattered, marking targets with fire. I looked up ahead and saw a house. There were troops moving up to the house. "Sergeant! Ordo Ferrum troops moving for that house. There must be someone or something they want in there." I yelled. He looked over and saw what I saw. "Corporal, take 6 men and protect that house!" he yelled. "Yes sir. You men come with me. And someone better contact command!" I screamed as I ran towards the house, knights falling in behind me. I looked over my shoulder and watched as Bravo Two came crashing down. Please let this be important! I thought as I sprinted for the house.
/Zak's POV/
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?!?!" I screamed. Everyone came running with their combat gear. "Zak, what's up?" my mom asked. "There's a fight going on outside! Some type of hovercraft blew up while another crashed down!" I yelled. We watched as gunfire was traded between the two forces out there. Then we saw a platoon of troops charging the house. "And it looks like we're about to get caught up in whatever's going on." I said as I grabbed my claw and pistol (mom wasn't happy Doyle got me it, but I guess she's gonna have to rethink that).
