Chapter 1B: Invasion of Acmetropolis.

The Loonatics, or Garuda Team, arrived to North Point at the Hawaiian Islands after Acmetropolis has been invaded by the Estovakians and they had to give the capital of the planet up. They waited for the commander to debrief them. While waiting, some pilots approached them. One of them was a man in his early thirties. He had brown hair, brown eyes, and stood six feet tall. His name is Daniel Pollini, or known as 'Windhover'. Two of the pilots are rabbits, one male and one female. The female had yellow fur with white-colored fur cheeks, blue eyes and long blonde hair. The male had gray fur with white-colored fur cheeks, blue eyes, and blonde hair. They're Miranda and Kevin Hare. They're siblings and members of Daniel's squadron and Miranda's callsign is 'Lanner' and Kevin's callsign is 'Saker'. Another pilot is a man with brown hair, brown eyes. His name is Freddie Durand, callsign 'Avalanche'. Another pilot, also a man, had brown hair and blue eyes His name is William Durant, callsign "Blizzard'. The last pilot is a dog, a terrier with black eyes, black fur and a red collar. His name is Buddy Dawg, callsign 'Serac'. Buddy and William are members of Freddie's squadron.

"Loonatics, glad that you can help us out." Daniel said.

"Well, that's what we do, and the fact that Chopper is a Colonel of the Air Force." Ace said.

"Glad to have you back, Colonel." Freddie said.

"Thanks. So glad to be back." Chopper said.

"Looks like we'll be flying together in various missions, huh?" Miranda said.

"This is great! The Loonatics flying with us. It's an honor to fly with you. Let you all know, I'm a huge fan." Kevin said.

"Thanks." Ace said.

"That was pretty good flying you did out there." Buddy said.

"Yeah, you guys fought like aces out there." William said.

"Well, Chopper's already an ace and we're just starting out." Lexi said.

"Well, actually guys, you all did pretty good out there. You guys keep flying like that and you'll be like me in no time." Chopper said.

"If we don't get shot down." Trixie said.

Everyone then stood up as Donaldson, who managed to evacuate, and another person walked in the room.

"Seats, at ease. All right, let's get debriefed on the situation." Donaldson said. "Our military has escaped destruction because of your valiant efforts on the battlefield. But our capital Acmetropolis has been temporarily occupied by Estovakian forces, and our central government has been usurped by them as well. The nation of Estovakia has declared war with the planet as it simultaneously launched a surprise attack on Acmetropolis, in the North American Continent. In response, the Planetary Republic of Acmetropolis' political council unanimously adopted a resolution of open war against the Federal Republic of Estovakia. Our forces remaining on the American sector of the North American continent are still fighting in desperation to protect our planet. Once our intelligence has been sorted and confirmed, the Planetary Republic of Acmetropolis' armed forces must immediately regroup and counterattack against the Federal Republic of Estovakia. The beautiful city-planet of Acmetropolis belongs to us, and only us-the citizens of Acmetropolis." Donaldson said. "By the way, this is James Palmer, known as AWACS GhostEye. He'll be your AWACS for now on."

James is a man who has brown hair and blue eyes.

"Everyone will remain on standby till further notice." James said.

Afterwards, in 3 months, Estovakian forces occupied the American sector of Acmetropolis. Other sectors in the rest of the planet was spared. Acme forces withdraw from the North American Continent and head to North Point. The Estovakians, known as 'Stovies', knows that the sector they invaded was once a superpower nation called the United States of America, so they strengthen their defenses to fight in this long war, now called the Acme-American Continental War.

That's the end of this chapter. Please review.
