Forewords
We're still in the Bevelle Scenario, so please stay with me.
Now it's time for more of the Allied Bevelle Commonwealth Navy.
You guys might remember that Edge Calloway was a sort of Brit, right? Well, because he'll be making an appearance in the Bevelle Scenario.
Chapter 50: The Bridge Is Falling
Time: 0830 Hour; 12th of August, 2125. (18 Hours until death)
Location: Canal City Bridge, The Thames; Canal City, Bevelle.
ABCN Squads are positioned at the Canal City Bridge. Soldiers and tanks prepared to intercept the Daughters Of Liberty.
Instead of normal tank cannons, the Bevellan "Little Girl" Anti-air Tanks are armed with anti-tank homing missiles. The soldiers each loaded their machine guns with high density rounds.
"Squad One is in position, accompanied by the Sea Hunter..." An ABCN captain spoke to someone through the radio. "Canal City has also been evacuated of civilians."
"Good..." Came LT's voice as a response. "Though I would recommend setting up shop in Lake City and Waterfall City as well, since the Daughters are heading westwards toward Registan. They will inevitably have to go through those two" LT continued. "You know those capitalists won't shoot children, and, even with hard evidence shoved into their face multiple times, won't believe in magic."
"Yes, sir." The ABCN captain acknowledged.
The soldiers all looked eastwards.
"Here they come!" The captain shouted.
All the soldiers and Little Girl Tanks took aim.
"Take aim..." The captain raised an arm, and the soldiers and tanks stood by, awaiting their next command.
As the Daughters Of Liberty got closer...
"Fire!" The captain shouted an order while dropping his raised arm. The soldiers and tanks open fired on the Daughters.
...
"This is too fast...!" Sanae shouted at Marisa while keeping her grip on the mechanical broom.
"Relax, this baby can go faster." The black-white witch replied calmly.
"Myon..." Youmu said, putting one hand over her mouth. "I think I'm about to puke again..."
"At least slow dow..." Reimu shouted, but stopped mid-sentence when she looked ahead.
There was a large bridge that spanned the river, and there were soldiers and tanks on it, firing machine guns and homing missiles at them.
"Look out!"
The other girls all looked ahead and saw the same thing. They split up at the last second just as a missile is about to hit them.
The momentum from the mechanical broom's Nitrous Boost launched each of the Daughters quite a bit of distance from where they split up. Marisa almost slammed into the bridge while Sanae almost into the river (She took the liberty to vomit as she decelerates).
Youmu took advantage of the momentum and charged herself and her ghost-half toward the ABCN squad with the Roukanken raised. With one bound, she slices the Little Girls up, which cause them to simply crumble into pieces without any explosions occurring. High-pressure water spilled from the unfired missiles as they rolled out from the wreckages of the Little Girls.
As more and more soldiers moved in to shoot the Daughters, they returned fire with danmaku to each soldier's face.
"We need reinforcements! Send in the Savior Helicopters!" The ABCN captain shouted into his radio before being hit in the face by a danmaku.
Several helicopters appeared from westwards in a large squadron of dozens.
"Dream Sign: Fantasy Seal" Reimu simply casted a Spell Card, and then launched hundreds of paper charms at the Savior Helicopters. The helicopters all starts to release smokes and rotate out of control upon being hit, none of them fired a single shot.
Reimu and co inspected the bloodless carnage that has just occurred, to make sure they are in the clear.
"All clear." Sakuya said.
Suddenly, the waters below the bridge rippled, and a mechanical construct, which the Daughters Of Liberty knew too well, emerged from it.
The Bevellan Gunship...
"You're kidding, right?!" Sanae exclaimed. "That thing was trailing us the whole time we're in Bevelle?!"
The Gunship has several heavy machine guns and what looked like RPG launchers loaded with water canisters.
"No big surprise for a county of isolated communist to be surprised by an aircraft that can double as a submarine." Said what was assumed to be one of the Gunship pilots via the on-board intercoms. "Time for the Sea Hunter to do a little shid (shed) cleaning." Said another pilot. "Allons~y...!" Both pilots said as they activated the weapons of the Sea Hunter, which began firing on the girls.
...
Location: The Citadel; Gensokyo.
"What do you mean it's a trap?!" A furious Remilia Scarlet yelled at Yukari.
The Youkai Dictator kept her gaze fixed on the sky outside while standing next to a window. "It's like that Jack Summers knew all along that one of us will come from Gensokyo to reclaim the Tome Of Gensokyo..." She responded without turning toward the Scarlet Devil.
"He KNEW?!" Exclaimed Kaguya. "I think he may have some gambit in his hands..."
"You also mentioned that he placed an impossibly high bounty on each of them, and sent sleeper agents after them..." Shiki Eiki said. "Ten quadrillion. I wonder how will he get enough money to pay the agents?"
Yukari turned around slowly.
"According to what I know, there's not an economical superpower in the Outside World whose wealth is even 5% of his." The Youkai Dictator said. "Not only that, he also apparently has control over military and even political matters overseas, a sort of NGO Superpower."
"Non-Governmental Organization that have control over governmental matters." Satori gave her comments with a deadpan. "Something you do not see on an everyday company."
"Did I mention that the Summers Technology Industries monopolize everything from daily household items to military hardware?" Yukari added one last sentence, which surprised everyone else.
Afterwords
It shouldn't have been a surprise to you that the STI is an NGO Superpower after all the chapters you've read. Seriously, a company that monopolizes everything on the world? Has control over international military and political matters? Although he still takes orders from the Nation Leaders, LT can still be considered as leading an NGO Superpower.
That aside, that attack's gonna leave some holes on the London Bridge (Canal City represents London). Also, Waterfall City and Lake City represents Dublin and Edinburg, Ireland respectively. Bevelle is Great Britain and Ireland...
Shout-out index:
"...a little shid (shed) cleaning." - Yeah, the English dub of Hetalia makes "shed" sound like "shid" when said in a British accent.
"Allons~y" - Doctor Who?
That is all. Until then...
