Year 2070

Ground Zero

"Thank you." was all he managed to hear as he saw the ruthless and enigmatic Kane walk through the Scrin Portal at threshold , after the more than fifty years of suffering and war, the war against Nod was over, as Kane walked through the portal, with some of the inner circle of the , Commander Daniel parker would not know this, as his optical implant began it's shutdown he slowly fell into the abyss, he saw his wife come to him, crying for him to stay alive.

Meanwhile General Griggs ran into the , alongside other GDI zone troopers and zone raiders, had came across the rest of Colonel louise's splinter of them had surrendered, and now, all he had to do was to check on the status of had been expecting for Kane to be dead, and Colonel Louise to be gloating over his body.

Instead, when the zone troopers had blasted the doors apart, all he found when he entered the white room was Colonel Louise and commander Parker lying on the ground, and Kane missing.

"Jesus Christ, what happened here?" he asked , as the Zone troopers spread out to secure the room, he went to check on COlonel Louise, he found her dead, staring ahead into oblivion, along with finger marks on her necks that made it look like she was strangled.

"Damn Louise, why?" thought the general. As he closed her eyes, before moving over to commander Parker.

"Hey, he is still alive!" yelled General Riggs, as he started carrying out Cpr, while a Zone Medic ran over with an AED.

"Oi, don't die on me!" yelled Riggs. As a zone medic primed the AED, general riggs knew why he could not die here, the GDI still needed a scapegoat for the coup by Colonel Louise.

2 month later

Commander parker woke up with a last memory was that of kane stepping into the threshold, while thanking him?that did not seem to make any sense

"Ah commander, glad to see you are awake." said a was general enough, for a man who was likely to clap him in irons and throw him in jail, he seemed … relaxed.

"Well commander, it appears that you were the high council may not like your association with the Coup , the council has agreed to drop the charges, on the condition you work for us again, and with increased oversight."

"what happened, wasn't I supposed to be, well arrested?"

"Well, commander, we reviewed the footage from your optical implant, we realised that she manipulated you and us for her vengeance on Kane.A pity she could not see the wood for the trees."

"I expect to see you back on duty soon?" General Riggs asked.

""Yes sir, I will be soon as my ribs stop hurting, that is."Said Commander Parker, trying to salute, wincing in pain as his ribs flared up.

Year 2085

The war against Tiberium was long ascension of Kane had given rise to the removal of the lethality of Tiberium, while the GDI were the sole surviving planatery divisions that marked different countries in the days of old were erased, the only indication of the days of old were accents and appearances.

Reversed engineered Scrin and NOD technology that was left behind meant that a new scientific and cultural renaissance was now underway. Colonisation attempts have resulted in the Solar system being colonised, with Luna , Mars and Titan becoming new homeworlds. Peace was finally attained.

At least that was what people thought, for in another world, the machinations of some would shatter the peace in a violent bloodbath.

"It is only fitting and proper that we civilise the nation on the other side of the gate." said Emperor Molt Sol Augustus to the Senate, s the senate nodded in Saderan empire was the largest Empire ever to exist, with the kingdom at its zenith, it could only seem to go up from there.

But as the laws of reality dictate,what goes up must go Empire was now large beyond belief, and the Army was hard pressed to hold it if the large size of the Saderan Army had meant they could impose their rule with a iron fist, however, their power was crumbling and the upper echelons of the Senate knew it.

"My emperor, while I agree that the Saderan Empire is the beacon of civilization, however, I must question, why are we sending two whole legions when one cohort or a few should suffice, after all, what if the other side were filled with something that the army could not beat?" asked marquis Casel, as he raised a good point.

"All right you worry wart, go ahead and use your new ideas, it's ot like the barbarians will understand the ideas!" jeered a rather war hungry senator, as the other war hungry sections of the senate began to do exactly that.

"Worry not, Marquis, for the mages have made their predictions, and frankly, they predicted that the other side will be too busy to deal with us, and we will simply be the straw that breaks their back." said the Emperor, remembering what the head soothsayer had said.

"Senate, fellow lords, I will not lie, we need that new slaves and metals will revitalise the will be a small sacrifice for the Empire to reach greater Invicta!" yelled Molt, as the senate broke out into cries of"Ave Molt'' and "Sadera Invicta."

Having discovered the gate, a small crack team of praetorian guards were sent through the gate, and they came back with stories that seemed to be strange beyond their wildest walls and giant towers that had more glass than the entire chariots that did not require horses, and even giant flying dragons.

Of course no one believed them, so they decided to get more then kidnapped a person living in the seemed to be wearing a metallic mask with blue eyes, and was wearing a yellow helmet and pants.

Even though he was uncooperative, given the fact he killed seven of the snatch team, he refused to talk, until the torture of the emperor's personal torturer broke him and the help of a translation magic, he talked, mocking them.

They were near a place they called" New Adana" . It was the seat of power for the Gee-dee-aye had weapons far beyond their understanding, and would rain hellfire from the skies.

The final straw was him spitting at the legate, his men promptly crucified him afterwards.

The other men and women who they caught and interrogated had a similar spiel, and even said they were more stupid than what they called , the men were crucified and the women were raped and sold into slavery.

Within days, the first and third legions were assembling at the Gate, followed by their demi human auxilla, with some of the other states also joining Marcus did want a bit more information, but the nobles back in Sanders wanted the spoils of war, and they wanted it now.

"Men of the Saderan Army, And demihumans, today,we embark on a journey to further the longer shall we be a small empire, no, we shall reign upon more lands, and prove ourselves as the beacon of civilisation.!" yelled Legate Marcus, commander of the Saderan Expedition.

"We can open the gate whenever you desire." said Mage Godasen, as he and the mages nearby prepared to open the gate.

Could you prepare the shields a few leagues away from the gate?" asked Legate Octavius

"Why legate, one would think you are a coward!" laughed Legate Lucius.

"Just in case, I have a very bad feeling about this." said Legate Octavius, as the gates opened, and the legions marched in.
