FINALLY IT IS COMPLETE (well the story anyway)

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Day of Final assault: 1100 hours

Paul and the other soldiers waited with intent. High command could only send 5000 men for the final assault on the winter palace. The palace itself was huge. It had been constructed by Peter the Great and was lined in front with hundreds of windows. About every other window had a solider with a weapon of some sort. Command had officially stated there were only 3000 men in the palace itself. However most men doubted this.

"Get Ready." Called the commissionar

All the men stood up and readied their weapons.

"CHARGE!" He Yelled

And with that 5000 men charged the palace. They had little difficulty getting through the half broken and rusted gates, but when they reached the courtyard the enemy opened fire. Immediately almost a quarter of the men were cut down as they ran, it seemed as if the people were doomed, but help had arrived because over head they heard the roar of a jet engine, they all looked up and saw several jet screaming towards the palace. The symbols on their wings bore the markings of the Finish air force. 2 jets let out a volley of machines gun fire on the palace walls while the other dropped smoke grenades to shield the soldiers. Paul eventually reached the doors of the palace. More and more soldiers pilled up at the entrance. The way in it self was blocked by a ton of debris stacked there. Eventually they managed to shove it all out of the way and blew down the doors with several charges. Immediately over 2500 men stormed the palace. They kicked down doors and rounded up soldiers and government leaders. Paul himself after learning where the premier was ran off to the room.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

East end of the palace

Paul had rushed over with 50 other Soldiers. When they reached the east wing they immediately fanned out to find more soliders and government officials. Paul himself ran into a ball room. The room had been converted into an office for the Premier. Paul looked around the room. In the center he saw a figure standing. The figure wore a long black cloak with a hood. Paul raised him weapon.

"I order you to surrender."

The figure just laughed. Paul looked puzzled.

"I've been waiting a long time for you. Levitate."

Levitate's eyes went wide, how did he know?

"I see you're resource full." He said throwing down his weapons. "I too have waited along time to see you."

"I'm sure you have," he said with a small laugh

"You won't be laughing." Levitate said then sent a blast of his powers at the figure.

His blast went towards its target but nothing happened.

Levitate stood confused but then it hit him like a bag of bricks. NOTHING HAPPENED

Levitate had seen almost every variation of shields used in powers and inventions and the only thing that had ever been able to fully withstand a blast of his powers was a force field was. One of his own.

"What are you?" asked Levitate in shock.

"Surprised?" asked the man before he sent a blast which sent levitate crashing into the wall. Levitate looked up, his reflects regained.

He ducked again missing another blow as it hit the wall then he sent one flying towards his opponents leg, but being to quick for that his opponent jumped again. Levitate had sent a second blow to the gigantic hammer and sickle suspended from the ceiling and it fell with a crash on his opponent, he then made a rush toward. Using his own power the figure threw the big symbol off him and straight at Levitate, Levitate himself jumped and lunged right at his opponent who put up 2 shields on his hands to combat the blow and the others that followed. Suddenly he felt something in his lower gut. Levitate had stuck him pistol into his opponent and was prepared to pull the trigger, before he could though they both heard the sound of foot steps and people. The figure took this opportunity to kick levitate away. He lunged for the window,

"I'll see you again Levitate, I'm sure of it." He said before lunging out the window

Levitate pounded his fist on the ground furious that now a second time he had failed to solve his burning question. But maybe what his opponent had said would give him another chance some day
