Here's chapter 18 everybody.

Chapter 18A: Lying in Deceit.

It's been 7 days the 7 nuclear attacks. Because of Belka's grand act of self-sacifice, they had lost the will to fight anymore, after watching the tragedy unfold before their eyes. The Allied Forces quickly agreed with the Belkan high command for a cease-fire. But some Belkan officers, however, refused the cease-fire order and continued to attack. Satellite photos saw that most of the rebel forces were taking refuge in the mining area of Mt. Schirm, so the Allied Forces decides to attack them. Anyway, Blake was doing paperwork when he was called to the briefing room. When he got there, he noticed PJ was there too and he guess he's gonna be his replacement for Larry. Forrest starts the briefing.

"We have discovered remaining enemy troops gathered in the Yering Mine area, in northwest Belka. Numerous divisions of the Belkan army refuse to accept the change in government and are disobeying the command to disband. Your mission is to clear out the remaining Belkan troops, and if the reports are accurate, there are still plenty of them. The Heierlark Base, located in Allied territory, has been arranged for your refueling. If your tank is low, go there and they'll help you out. To compensate for losses in Galm Team, Crow Team will be joining you. We're counting on your best performance yet." Forrest said.

With that being said, Blake heads for his F-15C while PJ heads for his F-16C which is still has the Crow Team's logo. They takeoff where they are to head to Heierlark Base to be refueled.
