Captain Aggro awoke with a splitting headache; he slowly lifted up his visor and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He looked around him and tried to remember where he was. He looked over himself checking for wounds and discovered two; his first wound was a spine protruding form his stomach. He was lucky for the spine had not pierced his skin. Another spine had gone right threw his leg right below his left kneecap. The spine went cleanly though bone and tissue and was pinning his leg to the ground, preventing him from movement. Aggro then looked around him and stared in horror at what was around him.
Zerg and human bodies were everywhere; husks of tanks littered the lush grassland. He could see more Zerg coming towards his position he looked around for his Gauss rifle; he spotted it about five feet from him. He immediately grabbed his trusted 9mm pistol even though it would do, no could against a hydralisk, the weight in his hand comforted him. The Zerg were just making their way over the now barren hill, when Aggro heard a deafening sound. He looked up and saw three Barracudas flying in a "V" formation. The three ships flew over the hill, right after there was a flash followed by an explosion. When the dust settled there was no hills or Zerg.
Aggro slowly remembered what had happened after him and his platoon ran to defend the siege tanks. The platoon was soon over-run by a combined force of hydralisks and zerglings. That was when Aggro had blacked right after he had been hit by a piece of metal. Aggro was starting to feel dizzy he immediately knew that it was the poison from the hydralisks's spine, it was slowly going to kill him if he could not get to a medic and with his bad leg there was no chance of him doing so. He heard a distant rumble, looking up to the sky he thought that he would see more Barracudas, instead he saw the distant shapes of incoming dropships. A smile spread across Aggro's pain twisted face, he sighed for the last time and closed his eyes.
Medics found the dead body of captain Aggro an hour later, his face frozen in a smile. The reserves that had been promised had final landed and they would finish what Aggro and the other dead humans had started.
Over three thousand marines supported by upwards of five hundred goliaths and vultures and over a thousand tanks made their way towards the outskirts of the Zerg base. The Zerg had taken heavy losses, in the massacre of the Terran. While all available larva were being used for more warriors, the Zerg could not hold out against the heavy fist of the Terran. The spearhead strike worked great and the reserves destroyed three major bases along with six minor ones. The strike left the Terran vulnerable on their rear. The Celebrate took advantage and moved all remaining ultralisks combined with over three hundred hydralisks and zerglings to smash in the rear of the army. At the exact moment of this attack other Zerg units would attack via Overlords and drop in amongst the Terran while they were unprepared and isolate chunks of the massive army into manageable sizes. With the plan in place it relied to heavily on the fact that any of the airborne elements would not be destroyed or take any losses. As there were no reserves for both sides' surprise and speed would be the key for victory for the Zerg, but having lost air superiority, the overlords would have no support.
Don't worry there will be two major battles in the next two chapters, this last paragraph was just the outline of the forces involved in the coming engagement. Thanks for all the reviews and keep R&R, thank you.
