Chapter 4: Jacob Kelly
Location: KX-37 - bougainville class battle cruiser
Date: 15th march 2256
Time: 1115
Roberts plan was put into action. The firepower was displayed from both sides but one slightly dominated the other. Robert had the element of surprise shocking the enemy with the speed of the attack and the destruction of their weapons.
But unfortunately the enemy can only be stunned for so long. Soon the enemy was back on top the war and had destroyed a bougainville class ship effectively ruining Roberts chances of winning this battle against these terrorists.
When nearly everything was sour to the point of being hopeless. That was until Robert received a message reminding him of a promise he had made to his son in law.
He had a job to do.
(Jessica's P.O.V)
It was just another day at home. I was off work due my pregnancy, Will stood by me making sure I wasn't having any troubles and I loved him for it.
Suddenly something felt off. I felt my stomach cramp for a second which got me to sit up. After that I started to pant hard as I got a familiar sensation of my water breaking. The pain reminded me of when I was pregnant with Izzy this could only mean one thing.
"Will!" I screamed clutching my belly.
"What's wrong?" he asked, but got his answer when he saw me in the position I was. He rushed over to me "Ok stay calm Jess, grab my hand I'll help you to the car.
Will easily got me to the car. But before driving to the hospital he typed something really quick on his phone.
"What… are you..doing?" I said in between gasps.
"Keeping a promise to your dad." he answered before diving off.
(Roberts P.O.V)
My grandson was on his way and I'm too far away to help, not for long. I got my thoughts to getter to come up with a counter plan. With my new determination it wasn't long before I had one and boy was it crazy.
"All ships regroup at my location." I commanded. It wasn't long before the commander Wilson on the remaining ship contacted me.
"Sir we may have eliminated the hive and one of the supper carriers, but what are we going to do about the last one? Even if we combined all forces it would be enough to destroy it. And there is also the fleet surrounding it."
"I know which is why we're going to cost USCM two bougainville ships instead of one."
"What do you mean sir?"
"Evacuate all personnel to my ship and leave your remote control androids on board we're going to drive that ship into the heart of the supercarrier."
"You're mad sir. The ship would be ripped apart."
"Which is why we're going to swarm the ship with drones, give it as much protection as possible, while we'll fall back to escape the blasts."
Wilson then realised what my intentions were. "You're going to turn this ship into a fireship!"
"We on our last legs commander. They've regrouped and are in perfect range, arm the nuke and get off that ship." I ordered explaining my plan.
"Yes sir. All hands evacuate to the generals ship! Synthetics at the controls, drones surround this ship!" He commanded before activating the nuke and leaving himself.
The ship was ready surrounded by a 1000 drones and armed with a 70 megaton nuke. "Synthetics charge that ship to the supercarrier." The ship launched itself at the fleet.
It was bombarded with opposing fire. The drones fired forward to clear the path of small ships and AA missiles it was ⅓ of the way their.
"Drones being shredded less than 600 remain sir!" an officer in formed.
"Keep pushing! Activate the long ranged cannon give it some support!"
The long ranged cannon eliminated some of the opposing fire. But the ship was still being hammered. The supercarrier now joined the fight and was preparing some of the missiles the other supercarrier used to destroy the bougainville that destroyed the hive.
The missiles launched and drones flew at them to prevent contact with the bougainville. The amount of drones was decreasing but the missile barrage had stopped possibly to reload. It was ⅔ of the way there.
"Drones almost wiped out 150 remaining sir!"
"Order all drones to fire at the doors to the supercarriers cargo port, we are getting in there whether they like it or not!"
The small cluster of ships fired ceaselessly tearing open the cargo door. The supercarrier got ready to fire again only there were more missiles than drones. The drones fired to destroy the missiles before running into them. The drones were gone but there were still missiles. With nothing left to guard the bougainville it had no choice but to rely on its hull.
"The bougainville taking damage, hull integrity 75%... 62%... 44%...25% sir it won't make it!"
Instead of hearing a threat or order to shut up they were greeted with silence. The operator turned to see me smiling before I said "It'll hold." calmly.
The bougainville despite the punishment pushed on until it met its mark In the supercarriers cargo holding bay. Were it finally broke, along with its cargo.
In an instant 70 megatonnes of TNT was unleashed decimating all within its range. The supercarrier, bougainville ships, drones and whatever was left of the terrorist. There was a minutes silence as everyone gasped at what they saw before a roar of victory was cheered.
"While this is a great time for celebration we must warn the UNCM of the things that have taken place here. You will travel back to HQ but I have more pressing matters to get to on Resonance III."
There was confusion amongst the crowd before someone spoke up "Sir? My we know what requires you to go to Resonance III?"
"Nothing to special, you see my daughter lives there and she's just gone into labour for the second time. And I would like to be there for her. Now get this ship moving!"
"YES SIR!"
(William's P.O.V)
I could hear Jess's screams from the delivery room. If it wasn't for the doctors telling me I should wait outside, I would be in there with her right now. It's been 2 hours since she went into labour, if this was going to be the same as Izzy then I would have to wait another 4 hours.
"Did I miss anything?" A familiar voice asked me.
I turned to see Bob looking at me.
"Bob, you made it."
"Oh course I made it, I made you a promise and as hard as it was to keep I kept it. And I wanted to see how my grandson would turn out. Also how's the birth going?"
We both heard her scream in the delivery room. "About that well."
"Jeez sounds like a pain in the ass"
I smiled at his bad joke. "Well we're going to be waiting a while why don't ya tell me how your mission went?"
"Alright sit back and get ready for this." He said building anticipation.
2 hours later.
To say I was amazed would be an understatement. The story he had told me was one of tactics and firepower. I knew what Izzy was going to study in history soon to come, as well as what movie I was going watch in the future because war stories like that are fairly rare.
This story plus a couple of other stories had made time fly. So fast that 2 hours had passed and we hardly noticed the doctor come out of the delivery room.
"Sir, the child was born with no dramas. He is a very healthy boy." The doctor informed me.
I almost bolted into the room to where Jess was. There she was sitting up holding a bundle of cloths with a small child inside resting peacefully. I bent over to get a good look at him. He was beautiful as Izzy when I saw her.
But the one thing that was unique about this boy was, it was that he was my child, my son. Jess let me hold him in my arms and that was when I got a good look at him. Being 3.5kg told me he was healthy, his face a calm face like any newborn but Jacob had the DNA of a Xenomorph in him. So I began to look for differences.
The first one was so obvious that it was hard not to notice, it was his hair. I've never seen a darker shade of hair in my life. It was so dark that it didn't reflect light. He stirred a bit, blinking a couple times, his eye's. They were an emerald green, while this wasn't necessarily a huge difference they kind of had an acidic vibe to them. Other than those two points he was just like any other boy. But he was my boy, he was Jacob Kelly.
"He's beautiful Jess." I said handing him back to Jess.
"Isn't he just. I wish my dad could be here to see him." Jess responded a bit sad.
"Well it's a good thing he's here to see his grandson." Bob came around the corner.
"Dad!? What are you doing here?" Jess asked confused.
"Well lets just say that Will made a promise with me, that when you went into labour I would drop everything get here, not that I wouldn't in the first place." Bob replied nonchalantly.
"Of course that's so like you dad."
"Well you gonna let me see my grandson or not"
Jess then handed Jacob to Bob so he could get a look at his grandson he went through so much trouble to save.
"Well isn't he cute, he has some dark hair on him though." He said before examining him closely. "Looks like he's got his mother's strength and his father's looks."
"Hey!" Jess and I shouted at him.
This got Jacob to smile, and got me thinking what would he think of Izzy. Only one way to find out.
"We'll how about we head back home, I'm sure Izzy will be thrilled to see here younger brother." Everyone smirked at my comment, only pondering what her reaction would be.

(Izzy's P.O.V)
School was fun. I always got my work done on time so Mrs Tesla let me go and draw what I wanted. So I drew my family me, mom, dad and grandpa. I spent so much time on it that school finished in the blink of an eye.
I collected my things and started to find dad. I would wait until I was home, I wanted mommy and daddy to see it together that way they could be surprised at the same time. I saw my dad looking for me harder than usual and he seemed to be tapping his foot on the ground really fast.
The moment he spotted me he almost ran over to me. "Izzy." he bent over and hugged me. "Izzy I've got a surprise of you at home."
I was so excited I started to shake him to tell me. "Really what is it!"
"I can't tell you Izzy, but I'll show you when we get home. To give you a hint, mommy lost some weight because of it." he teased
"Well let's get home. Come on, come on!" I said trying to get him to move but he barely jogged.
What took minutes felt like hours, but we were soon home. I rushed to the front door and stopped when dad said 'slow down'. I did but only for the door to open. I rushed to the living room searching for anything out of place, I didn't find anything.
"Now now Izzy, you won't find the surprise down here." Dad said.
"Then were daddy?"
"Keep your voice down and follow me." I did what I was told, we walked up the stairs until we got to mommy and daddy's room. Dad put a finger on his lips signaling me to be quiet and I was.
When he opened the door I saw mommy in a rocking chair. Her belly was much smaller, But what caught my eye was what she was holding, a baby.
I walked over staring at the boy who was asleep in my mom's arms, I don't think i've seen a darker colour of hair. That was when he looked at me with dark green eyes and a face filled with wonder.
"Izzy." mommy said "This is your younger brother Jacob. Would you like to hold him?"
I almost couldn't believe it. Other kids at school talked about older or younger brothers or sisters, that I began to wonder what it would be like, and here he is, my younger brother.
"Yes! Can I please hold him." Jacob stirred at my voice, before mommy rocked him back and forth to calm him down.
"Of course, but just try to keep your voice down, he's pretty tired." she said moving by arms to hold him right. He was heavy but he looked so calm and peaceful I hardly noticed the weight.
He smiled when he peaked up at me. He then waved one free hand trying to reach my face. I grabbed his small hand and felt him squeeze my hand.
"He's beautiful, Jacob, welcome to the family little bro." I said hugging him.
At this moment I heard daddy pick up something "Did you draw this Izzy?"
I turned to see him holding the picture I drew "No!" I snatched it off him "I mean yes… It's just not finished." I said giving Jacob back to mum. "I need to add jacob into it." Making daddy smile.
"I think that's sweet of you Izzy."
(? P.O.V)
"It seems the attack on KX-37 has failed."
"It was a minor loss but we will reap the rewards at the other planets we have conquered. This will not be a perfect war. Little by little we'll gain an iron grip on the galaxy."
"And when that happens my empress, what will you do?"
"Well that would ruin the surprise now wouldn't it."
