(Back to the war)
February 5th 1936
Field Marshal Rommel stands on the beach of Normandy as he watches his men prepare defences the Allied invasion of France is Coming, the Fuhrer once he was informed by his spies recall Rommel from Norway.
He swore to give Rommel full command of the Western forces to defend France with no interference from Berlin, it was just what he wanted he knew the allies would not land in Calais it was to easy and the British would not throw away the lives of thousands of there troops in what would be a suicidal offensive, no he knew it would be on the Normandy Beaches as no other German commander would expect the invasion to land there.
Rommel was no fool however he knew if the allies gained a foothold on the beach the war would be lost but he also knew he could not keep the allies out forever especially if the word from Berlin was to be believed they had only taken the city of Prague last month and Adolf was full of glee believing he could take all of the Austrian Empire.
There was also talk about large camps in the east were people were worked to death or just straight butchered he hoped to God it wasn't true that his beloved Germany would do such a thing.
Sparta
February 8th 1936
Albert Goldstein had finally made it to Sparta he had snuck out of Austria Proper and made the long walk to Sparta he had told the guard captain his story only to see a look of horror on his face he was fed and checked to make sure he was healthy before being transported to Sparta.
As he was led into the Throne Room, he felt a wave of calmness hit him making him feel safe before he knew it, he stood before the Queen of Sparta. "You have travelled so far little one and seen much suffering and pain it's clear in your eyes, but also determination."
Albert told the Queen about the Camp this left Kassandra her family and the Council in shock that something like this was going on while the boy didn't have solid proof Kassandra believed him and ordered agents to check it out.
February 20th 1936
D-Day
The British and American troops were loaded and sailing across the channel their reports informed them the Majority of the German Airforce was fighting in Austria so it should be smooth sailing, it wasn't halfway across the channel the Invasion Fleet were attacked by the Airforce thousands of pounds worth of explosives were dropped on the fleet crippling many and sinking a few.
The explosions could be seen from the coast causing many of the German Defenders to cheer only to be bellowed at by Rommel to stay in position as the battered fleet kept coming until they were just under a mile from the coast.
Turning to his radio operator he nodded. "Give the command to are artillery to open fire on the fleet." The soldier followed his General's command.
Back in London the recently Crowned George the 6th could only listen to the sounds of countless British Canadian and American troops shouts and cry's of fear as the German Defences decimated the invasion Force.
He had been completely against the Invasion stating that the German Defenders were to well equipped and had said so publicly that he refused to support the plan that would cost the Lives of so many brave men, what he didn't know was a microphone had been left on his declaration had been heard across the Country much to parliament's annoyance.
But now it was true the British People and the Soldiers still in the country were beyond angry that Parliament had gone through with this plan of the Americans despite there Sovereign disagreements with it.
George knew he had to do something especially when the next bit of information came through, the Bismarck had arrived its guns waiting to fire on the remaining Ships.
In a shocking sight George pushed the American Radio man out of the way as he gripped the microphone. Hoping his message could still be heard.
"All allied ships this is Sovereign, full retreat I repeat full retreat."
The ships under the British Flag hearing their Sovereigns orders complied however Bismarck needed to be distracted and HMS The Prince of Wales took up the mission Turing towards the German Behemoth the Battleship sent one final Message via Morse Code (God Save the King).
HMS The Prince of Wales was sunk of the coast of Normandy with all hands lost, her sacrifice allowed the remnants of the invasion fleet to escape back across the channel and to the safety of England.
The Bismarck had been badly Damaged in the Fighting and was forced to sail to French Atlantic Coast ports for repairs she would be out of service for at least 2 months.
Field Marshal Rommel could only look at the Devastation, while no allied troops had landed the Fleet had managed to fire at his fortifications destroying many of them killing 890 Germans, but it was reported that the Allies lost a combined total of 85,000 troops not to mention ships.
Buckingham Palace
George sat at his desk looking at the basic reports given to him by a soldier he had half expected Parliament to convince him to stay at Balmoral after his stunt, but the British Troops would not have it.
He intact went further he Ordered Parliament disbanded with the British People behind him and a snap general Election to be called this was supported by Winston Churchill a very popular figure with the people.
On April 5th 1936 the 3rd anniversary of the start of the war Churchill was elected as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom but that was only the start of it, as the Day Before the Bismarck attacked a ship it Believed to be the HMS Hood of the coast of Portugal.
It wasn't it was a Spartan Battleship the Two beast of the Waves battled; well The Spartan Warship battled the Bismarck tried to flee sending messages to Berlin about the mixup as it fled followed by the Spartan Ship known as Hades Fury it was intercepted by HMS Hood who joined the Frey together Both ships sent the Bismarck to the sea floor.
But on April 5th the Spartan Empire officially Declared War on Germany its vast Military mobilised for war, the attack on the Fury was not the only Reason for War however The Agents Kassandra had sent came back with Proof of the Death Camps as well as pictures.
In Berlin upon receiving the News of The Empire Joining the war Hitler felt something he had not felt since that day in the trenches against the Spartan Mage, he felt Fear.
