Chapter 13
The aliens watched as the invading fleet starts to flee. They can hear the call of the power and it's coming from one of the planets. They are deciding to hang back because the defenses of each planet look formidable and they don't want half of their fleet destroyed only to end up getting destroyed by the other planet's fleet. That would be very bad. Maybe the invading, or now retreating, fleet will come back and attack again. That would make the aliens' job a whole lot easier.
Balto is staring out the observatory window and sees the last of the humans disappear from view. This isn't the end of the war. It's only the beginning of eternity.
The humans are counting their losses. They lost seven capital ships, eleven assault cruisers, fifteen battle cruisers, and three hundred assault ships. The soldiers they lost range into fifty thousand and still counting. It may sound like the worst defeat the humans have, but the worst is when they lost Earth to dogs. That was embarrassing. They need to destroy the UCM if they want to control Eden and Nod. Those planets were needed for the humans' complete control of whatever resources were on Eden and Nod. Maybe then they could end the Great Famine that has killed three thousand people on six continents. If they didn't win then they would have to rely on the other colonies to supply them with resources, like food.
Alex is walking to the control room of Achillion and starts to think to himself. 'Should we unleash a newly formed chemical on the humans? I wonder what it does.' He passes the control room and he walks into the research facility.
He sees a scientist and frowns at him. "That new chemical you guys made. What does it do exactly?"
The scientist smiles at Alex. "Why, it'll turn the humans into dogs."
Alex cocks his head. "What do you mean by that? Like they'll become dogs or they'll become something…else."
The scientist shrugs his shoulders. "I…I think the something else part is probably more accurate."
Alex backs up in horror. "They're going to become…they'll become monsters! You're going to kill us all if they get here!"
The scientist starts to tremble in fear. "Oh no! If they get here then they'll kill us all!"
Alex nods his head. "May the Lord God protect us and lead us down the blessed path."
The scientist cocks his head and watches Alex leave the research facility.
A/N: You probably haven't caught it yet, but there's a pattern that you might see in chapter 14. If you think you know then review. If you don't know and just want to get to chapter 14, then review anyways. If you don't review (and have paranoia dispensia) I know where you are and I will find you! LOL (I have no idea why I just put LOL, LOL. Arrgh) R&R
