Van and Fiona traveled for a few hours until they managed to get back to the base. "What the," said Van. "Where did all the zoids come from," asked Fiona? "People all around the world are coming to help," said Irvine when he came up behind them. "I guess they didn't want things to go the way that Drake wants, so a lot of people are joining up to help," said Irvine. "I know that we could use the help but these people can lose their lives," said Van. "They have been told that, but they still want to help," said Irvine. "I guess we really can't refuse their help then," said Van. "Guess not," said Irvine. "Hey Irvine, is Moonbay back," asked Fiona? "Yeah, she is around here someplace," said Irvine. "Thanks," said Fiona as she ran off.

"Hey there Moonbay," said Fiona. "Hey Fiona, you look better than the last time I saw you," said Moonbay. "Thanks," said Fiona. "So how did your short time off go," asked Moonbay? "Really nicely," said Fiona. "Holy cow," said Moonbay as she spotted the ring on Fiona's finger. "What is it," asked Fiona? "Where did you get that beautiful ring," asked Moonbay. "Van," said Fiona. "You mean he proposed to you," said Moonbay. "Yeah," said Fiona. "So, you are going to get married," said Moonbay. "I know," said Fiona.

"Alright everyone we are almost fully prepared for the attack we will make on them so that we can end this," said Crougar. "I appreciate all of you that have offered to help us because it will even out the numbers on both sides a lot," said Crougar. "You should be warned though that these guys are ruthless and you might not come back alive," said Crougar. "So if you want to back out I understand," he said. When he didn't here a response he spoke again, "I want everyone to get a good nights sleep tonight because tomorrow we will start bright and early in the morning," said Crougar. "All right everyone, dismissed," said Crougar. Everyone then cleared out of the area. "Sir do you think that it is wise for you to send out people who haven't had any military training," asked Van? "I don't like it, but we need as many people as we can get. We have trained them a little since some of them came here, but that means that they only had about two weeks or less of training," said Crougar. "I don't like it either," said Van. "Even with them, this base is still outnumbered," said Van. "The president and the emperor are sending their best soldiers right now so we should have a better chance with them," said Crougar. "I don't want to get you worried Van, but," said Crougar. "What," asked Van? "Remember the battle where you nearly lost you life," said Crougar. 'Yes," said Van. "Well I have gotten information on the amount of warriors they have and it equals to about three times as many," said Crougar. "Three times as many," said a shocked Van. "Yes," said Crougar. "We won't be able to stand a chance against that many," said Van. "That is why we are getting as many soldiers as we can, but we can't take them all because the rest of the bases still need to have their own defense, but even with all the extra help I still think that we are outnumbered," said Crougar. "We will find a way," said Van. "I am sure we will," said Crougar. "Just leave it to everyone that is willing to help and all the soldiers," said Van. "I guess you are right," said Crougar. "I am also going to be there and with me and Zeke, even if we die, we will take out as many of them as we possibly can," said Van. "Ok then I will be expecting that, Captain Flyheight," said Crougar. Van was shocked with what he just heard. "Does this mean I am," asked Van? "Yes, I have been given orders to promote you," said Crougar with a smile. "I won't let you down," said Van. "Very well, dismissed," said Crougar. "Yes sir," said Van with a salute.

"Congratulations Van, you deserve it," said Fiona. "Thanks," said Van. "Why haven't I gotten promoted yet," asked Thomas jealously? "Because Van is a better pilot than you are," said Irvine. "And you won't be, if you don't stop complaining," said Karl as he walked into the room. "Oh, big bro. I mean, Colonel Shubaltz, sir," said Thomas with a salute. "When did you get in," asked Thomas? "A few minutes ago," said Karl. "You wanted to know why," asked Karl? "Yes," said Thomas. "It is because you still have a long ways to go till we feel that you are ready for something like that," said Karl. "I am ready," said Thomas. "Can you prove it though," asked Karl? Thomas couldn't answer. "Van has showed he was ready many times, even if he didn't know it," said Karl. "Now that is enough lieutenant," said Karl. "Yes sir," said Thomas. "I hope you are all prepared," said Karl. "We are, sir," said Van. "Tomorrow is going to be a big day, so good luck," said Karl. "We will sir," said Van with a salute. Karl then left the room. "Shut down by your own brother," said Irvine. "Shut up, Irvine," said Thomas. "Karl does have a point Thomas," said Moonbay. "What do you mean," asked Thomas? "At times you act more like a child rather than someone in the military," said Moonbay. "HEY," yelled Thomas. "What it is the truth," said Moonbay. "I am a very serious person," said Thomas. "Then why are you complaining like a baby because I made that one remark," asked Moonbay. "Anyone would," said Thomas. "I doubt it," said Moonbay. "Just stop Moonbay," said Thomas calmly. "Give it up Thomas, you can't really win when you are up against Moonbay," said Irvine.

"So they actually think that they can win against the army I have produced," said Drake. "I give them points for courage, but I will take them away for stupidity," he continued. "What do you think," Drake asked Rachael? "I agree with you," said Rachael. "How about this," said Drake. "When I do take over this planet you can rule beside me," said Drake. "I am flattered," said Rachael. "Unlike Van, I can see your beauty," said Drake. "He just didn't know what was in front of him because of that Fiona," said Rachael. "You seem to really hate the ancient zoidian," said Drake. "Yeah, I do," said Rachael as she clenched her fists. "Who knows maybe you will get a chance to get her," said Drake. "I sure hope so," said Rachael.

"Is everything ready, captain," asked Crougar? "Yes, we are almost fully set up and ready for the attack," said Van. " The other bases have been given the exact coordinates of the base we are attacking so we should have some help there," said Crougar. "That is good news," said Van. "The people seem to be scared," said Van. "It isn't really surprising," said Crougar. "They are going into a battle where they could lose their lives so of course they would be scared," he continued. "I hope that everything will come out alright," said Van. "Lets hope," said Crougar. "We should be about ready to head out," said Van. "It looks like they know we are going to attack so they set up a defense, so you will have to break through their lines," said Crougar. "We must get their leader so this will end," said Van. "That should be the main goal," said Crougar. "I will make sure it will be completed," said Van. "Very well," said Crougar. "Oh and Van," said Crougar. "What," asked Van? "Your father would be proud of how you have turned out," said Crougar. "Thank you sir," said Van as he got into the blade liger.

"All right everybody, listen up," said Van. "We should be coming across their defenses soon," said Van. "So you had better be ready for what is to come," said Van. No sooner had Van said that, than missiles started to bombard them. "You ready Zeke," asked Van? Zeke gave a loud growl within the liger. "Good," said Van as he extended the blade and charged right into the enemy zoids.
