Chapter 18-Pre-emptive Attack!
Skadra had watched Captain Sadjin's defeat from his cabin TV. He now knew that there were only 8 maian vessels left to destroy. The three ships that would come out from behind Mars, would attack them, and probably lose, but the three ships that would come out from behind Jupiter would flatten the rest of the maians. The Skedar would win without the aid of the mega weapon. Unfortunately, that was about to change.
"Captain Skadra, the tractor beam has finished charging itself up."
"Good. Proceed with the plan. Start pulling out the ship from the ocean."
The tractor beam zoomed down on the Mega weapon ship and started hauling it up.
"Captain, we need more power", said a guard, "we have to use the power of the shields."
"But that will leave us defenceless" cried another guard.
"Proceed with the plan", said Skadra, "we must have that weapon, otherwise we're doomed. Captain Krijy, is your team ready?"
"Yes. We are ready to leave."
"Good. All is going as planned."
Krijy, Budge, Sultry, Death, Bill, and Leo got into one of the travel ships and left the ship. They flew down towards the Pacific Ocean, but made sure as not to get in the way of the tractor beam.
"There it is!" cried Sultry as she looked out of the window.
"It's nearly up", said Krijy, "prepare yourselves. We have to move fast. Skadra has detected human planes coming towards our position, and we don't want to be here when they arrive."
Meanwhile, on Earth the humans had begun the countdown to firing their atom bombs. They had gained contact with the maians, who told them to destroy the Skedar! Soon they would fire them at the Skedar fleet, and try to take them out. The countdown finished, and the atom bombs took off.
Captain Skadra felt unstoppable. Soon he would crush the maian fleet, and become world famous. This day would go down in history he thought. Suddenly his thoughts were disrupted.
"Ccaptain! A maian fleet has de-cloaked next to us!"
"WHAT! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" screamed Skadra.
"It has 10 starships, and 20 squadrons! We still don't have the mega weapon."
"Have the other ships protect us. How far has the ship been raised out of the ocean?"
"I'll see. It's nearly at the surface…oh no."
"WHAT IS IT!" screamed Captain Skadra in distress. His grand plan was failing.
"The humans have fire rockets at us!"
"Don't just stand there. Raise the shields."
"We can't. We don't have enough power left!" whined the guard.
Captain Skadra looked out of the window, and saw the atom bomb speeding towards the bridge.
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM
The starship Dreadar exploded as three atom bombs hit her. The power on the tractor beam failed and let go of the mega weapon ship. It fell back into the Pacific Ocean, creating a 50 metre high tidal wave. It sped towards the existing lands around the Pacific Ocean. Japan lay in ruins, New Zealand was swept away, and the American west coast was destroyed. The second maian fleet, which had de-cloaked next to them, destroyed the existing Skedar ships and the grand plan lay in ruin.
