War Amongst Stars Part 2

Macross City

A few months after initial investigations had taken place Harry met with the U.S. President with an interesting proposal.

"You want to what?" The president asked dully.

"I want to build a city around the hull of the ship. Macross city will be a safe haven for any and all magical people. Macross City will be an independent city-state, but I would like to be allied with you and my homeland of England. This does mean that we would share much of the technology discovered and since you are aware that the aliens were armed I have every intention to hire a task force devoted to the restoring and reverse engineering of the ship." Harry explained.

"Why should the U.S. allow this?" The president asked curiously.

"I can cut off access to the investigation teams at any time you realize." Harry reminded him.

"There is that." The president agreed.

Within a surprising three months construction of the world's newest country began and thanks to the large influx of workers and magic the city was completed in less than a year.

Macross Island

"Citizens of Macross City, I am delighted to oversee the inauguration of our city state, a state of true equality between techies and magicals alike. I however, am not an expert with fancy words; nor do I have any intention of giving myself a big head so let the ceremony begin!" Harry said before stepping off of the platform.

The citizens of his new country laughed at their leader's words and fireworks lit up the sky above the tiny island state.

Macross City

President's Office

"Mr. President, a delegation from the U.N. is in the lobby waiting for you." Ginny Weasley told Harry.

"I knew this was going to happen." Harry groaned before he stood and walked out to meet the U.N.'s diplomats.

"Mr. Potter, it's a...Pleasure to speak to you." A Korean man said.

His tone was condensing and arrogant.

"Let's make this quick shall we? I have much to do and not enough time to do it." Harry replied as he led them to a conference room.

"But of course." The African delegate said.

Once they had all been seated in black leather chairs; according to their positions Harry listened.

"Mr. Potter, we wanted to ask you, what is your intentions with the Robotechnology you recently revealed?"

Harry sighed internally before he spoke.

"Firstly, I desire to improve the standard of living here on Macross Island, so that my citizens and researchers can better research the technology we are unearthing every day. Furthermore, My personal team is keeping me notified of the alien's specifications. Our current feelings on this situation are that we will need to prepare defenses; just in case."

"Your team believes that there is a potential alien invasion threat?" A woman asked.

"Absolutely, the 'SDF-1' is covered in turrets, laser riffles, hangars with assault walkers that we've tentatively named 'Battle Pods' and much, much more, there isn't an inch that doesn't have some kind of military influence. This is why we are wanting to dig into Robotechnology. It's far more advanced than our own, and if we are attacked we will need weapons based on this type of technology. As to military research, we have begun work on a anti-invasion weapons platform, and while it is slow and doesn't have air or sea capabilities it is a good start for invasion repulsion."

"What have you learned about Robotechnology?"

"Quite a bit, just call for a service bot and it'll give you an idea what we are dealing with. It is highly advanced if you haven't figured that out."

The meeting drug on and on, and Harry had to be careful, dodging and skirting certain topics. He had to make Macross City seem too well defended but not a threat to the world. It was difficult since they were determined to find probable cause to destroy his newly built city.

They had already tried to find a reason to attack them several times, but thanks to Hermione and his quick wits they managed to avert disaster. (It also helped that the U.S. and U.K. alike were direct allies of the tiny nation.)

Finally after five grueling hours of being drilled and attacked the delegation left. Immediately after they left his offices Harry groaned, rubbed his temples and shook his head in frustration. President or not he hated dealing with the U.N.

Research Center

"Hey mate, take a look what we and the techies have been cooking up." Fred said as he saw Harry.

"What is that?" Harry asked staring at the massive metal object.

"We call it the proto micro mobile weapons platform." A techie said.

"Huh?" Fred, George, Ron, Harry, and Hermione all asked blankly.

"You help build it Mr, Mr, and Mr Weasley!"

"Doesn't mean that we understand the name that you gave it." Ron replied.

The techie sighed and spoke.

"Our newer researchers like to call it the Proto Destroyer."

"I see." Hermione bit her lip thoughtfully before she spoke.

"I was needing to ask you a question." Hermione addressed the techie.

"What is it?" The American Techie asked.

"What effect does magic have on Robotechnology?" She asked.

"That's my area Hermione." Ron interjected. "Magic has no adverse effects on Robotechnology, yes, magic can destroy it if you fire destructive magic at it, but the simple fact is is that Magic doesn't harm it directly. Gred, Forge, and I are all working to see if magic can augment Robotechnology because of that."

"A new brand of Robotech?" Harry wondered.

"We don't know if it'll hold or not but we've tentatively named it 'Magitechnology, or Magitech for short." Fred said.

"Good luck." Harry said.

"Thanks." George replied as the researchers went back to work.

Harry turned to Hermione with a raised eyebrow.

"What do you think?" Harry questioned.

"It's a possible edge if it works, and it might help protect us better. Still, we'll need something to counter the big problem." Hermione noted.

Harry nodded.

"That we do."

Macross City

U.S. Embassy

"I'm glad to see you made it safely here Mr. President." Harry said to the U.S. president.

"I've been wanting to visit for a while now. My predecessor said that you had a wonderful city."

"We're proud of it." Harry admitted with a smile.

"Harry, the cars are ready." Hermione said to Harry.

"Mr. President this way please." Harry led them the the government cars and they headed for a hangar.

"Now, what you are about to see Mr. President must never be told to anyone. Already the correct personnel in your country are aware of this but you need to be as well." Harry said seriously as they pulled into a hangar.

"What is it?"

"The former President and the highest personnel of both our nations felt it best to hide a critical secret about the aliens to keep everyone from panicking." Harry said grimly.

"What do you mean?" The president asked curiously.

Harry merely pointed to a diagram on the far wall of the concealed hangar.

"That's a big human diagram." The President noted.

"It's not a human diagram. It's alien, and it's full scale."

The U.S. President looked at Harry dumbly for a long moment.

"The aliens are fifty foot tall beings." Harry confirmed.

"What?" The president gasped.

"We didn't want to cause a panic so we kept that secret but it did mean we needed to figure out a way to fight them toe to toe, and that where our newest babies come into play."

"What? The 'Valkyrie Project'?" The man asked as they observed a couple of giant fighter jets being pulled into the hangar.

"That's right. I'd like to show you the 'VF-X-1' Veritech fighter. It has three modes, fighter; as seen here, guardian, and a final form called the battoid mode." As Harry spoke the fighter switched between the three forms.

The president blinked comically at the massive machine that towered over them.

"So you made a robot?" The president asked.

"Actually, it's called a mecha, and it is a piloted craft, or rather will be once finished. This does bring me to an important point Mr. President, we need test pilots and we need the best of the best."

The president nodded.

"I can understand that, and I think the U.S. Air Force can lend you a couple pilots, and the Marines would love to play with one of these machines."

"That's all I can ask for Mr. President." Harry smiled in relief at the willing aid of his American Counterpart.

February 15th, 2001

U.S. Embassy, Macross Island

Roy Folker of the U.S. Marine Corps had finally arrived after a long 10 Hour flight. He enjoyed the sights of the young and bustling city as he made his way to the government complex.

"Lt. Roy Folker of the U.S.M.C. to see President Harry Potter." Roy said to the secretary sitting at the desk nearest the door.

"Hello, Lt. I was told to send you on up right away, please go to the top floor and straight down the hall from the elevator." The red haired woman smiled at him pleasantly as she pointed to an elevator just to his left.

"Very well. Thank you Ma'am." Roy said before he made his way to the elevator and punched the 5th floor button.

Less than fifteen seconds later he was walking towards the President's office. At the door he heard a young man's voice speaking in a frustrated voice.

"I don't care what the U.N. thinks! If they keep this up; threaten to never give then any more technology! They know as well as we do that our tech is so much more advanced that it'd be suicide for them to attack us now. In particular since the SDF-1 can fire it's big gun if need be."

There was a short silence before Roy heard the man's voice again.

"Once the SDF-1 is a little closer to completion you can give 'em that. Hand them the ARMD robotech when that time comes."

A short pause.

"I'll talk to Hermione later, anyhow, I've got a meeting I need to make, so I'll call back later."

Roy heard a faint click sound and deciding that it would be a good time to knock he did so.

"Come in." The man said.

"Mr. President?" Roy questioned.

"Please call me Harry." Harry replied.

"Yes sir." Roy agreed as she stood at the Position of attention in front of Harry's desk.

"Please sit down, Macross isn't quite so hung up on protocol; unless you're talking about the defense department."

"Alright." Roy said as he took a seat.

"As you may be aware you have been selected to be a top tester of the most advanced fighter ever created. VF-X-1 Veritech Fighter. It is faster, more agile, stronger defensively, and able to do things you've only dreamed of doing in a fighter. But, it's so fast, and agile that if you underestimate it you'll probably wind up very, very dead, and very, very quickly." Harry told him.

"I understand that sir and I am willing to take the risk." Roy assured the man.

"Also, you can't tell anyone about it; there are some very sensitive features about the VF-X-1 that can't be known to the general populace, or anyone for that matter." Harry added.

"What do you mean sir?"

"You have to assure me what you are about to see, that you will not reveal to anyone unless authorized by the Macross Government."

"Alright sir." Roy promised, after all it wasn't like the fighter transformed into a giant robot or anything right?

This is another taste of War Amongst Stars, now since this is only a few early chapters and it's getting everything set up there isn't a whole lot of magic reference. (That comes in later folks) To be frank, you'd need to see a few of the later chapters to see more magic influence.
