Armored Core - Return to Earth

Epilogue - Mars' Destruction

                The year is 2122.  After the corporations had moved to Mars, closely pursued by the Ravens, they discovered more to mars than they needed to know.  This knowledge led anyone who knew of it to go completely insane.  They were banished off of mars, never knowing of the waiting destruction.  Eventually, they began mining and discovered the truth to the off-scale earthquakes.  They put out a warning to send everyone off of mars, but they were taken as lightly as the insane ones.  They had to be made to realize that they would be the cause of their own demise.

                Four days later, the ground below the civilians began to crack and buckle, causing instability, and no way to run.  Fissures opened up below peoples feet, swallowing them whole.  The human race as a whole was in danger, and something had to be done.

                They set up a temporary ground to keep the people safe until they could get to the ships, but the earthquakes were so bad, the grounds only worked for an hour, then they began to crack and fissure once again.  Volcanic eruptions began that were so horrifying, you would die instantly if you were to just glimpse at them.  The first 6 ships lifted off an headed for Earth, each carrying 150,000 people.  But as they lifted off, one of the volcanic eruptions spit out dozens of boulders and flaming debris.  Some of the debris collided with one of the ships, and split it into two large pieces.  The thousands of people were sent down to their deaths.  Another ship was hit and severely damaged, but not unflyable.  The people looked back as mars broke apart, they knew it would be the end of it.
