Here's chapter 8 everybody.
Chapter 8A: Bartolomeo Fortress.
It's December 27th, 2773, and it's been one month since the Garuda Team where able to help the Acme forces drive the Estovakian forces out of Sipli Field and retreated to Bartolomeo Fortress at Mauna Loa. For the past month, Chopper and Trixie has been trying to find information on Mobius Squadron after Chopper found the patch in an old bunker, but they couldn't find information, although Tech told them they'll have to wait until Acmetropolis gets liberated. Anyway, Ace was meditating, Lexi was dancing to her music, Duck posing in front of a mirror, Rev playing ping-pong by himself while Slam watches him, Tech working on a new invention, and Chopper and Trixie were practicing their martial art skills. Miranda then came by the doorway.
"Hey Garuda Team, we're wanted in the briefing room." Miranda said.
"All right, we're on our way." Ace said.
Duck then quack himself to the briefing room while Rev ran to the briefing room in a second. Everyone else walked. Before Ace walked out of the room, he stared at the Mobius patch.
"Humph…I'll put this in my pocket in case someone takes it." Ace said to himself.
He puts the patch in his pocket and catches up with the others to the briefing room. Everyone waited until Donaldson finally arrived and starts the briefing.
"The final remnant of Estovakian forces on this island is concentrated on Mauna Loa on Big Island in Hawaii. The enemy is mainly distributed throughout this mountainous area with Bartolomeo Fortress as it center of operations, providing a variety of high level defensive measures and offensive might. This fortress also boasts strong anti-air capabilities. Our ground unit in this mission is to split into 2 groups, to the east and west, along with an air unit mainly providing ESM, which gives us 3 units in total. Garuda Team, we need you to cover each of these units in which ever order you feel is necessary. The situation will change depending on which turn a particular battle takes. You'll need to keep close tabs on the combat situation of each unit to successfully complete this mission. Our forces on the mainland are scattered and desperate-doing all they can to protect our planet. We need you to help guarantee their success on this mission. And success on this mission is measured by how much support you can provide them with." Donaldson explained. "Dismissed."
"All right, Garuda. Let's jet." Ace said.
With that, everyone puts on their mechanical flight suits, head for their aircraft and takes off for Bartolomeo Fortress.
