The Osprey Honor team currently used. Was beginning to approach the meeting zone that was 34 kilometers away from the mission objection. Amelia, steered the Osprey to start landing as they approached the meeting zone where they wouldmeetup with the other Riftan-IIIs. The Osprey's landing gear unfolded Amelia than landed the Osprey onto the ground. A thud was heard when the Osprey landed. "We're here." Amelia said signaling they have arrived at their destination. "I noticed, open up the back ramp, Three." Mason responded. Amelia gave a nod, she than pressed a button to open the back ramp, it lowered to the ground.
"Ha, finally we get to kill some connys and shove their plasma rifles up their asses." Ivan said jokingly. Mason stood up first from his seat. He looked back to Ivan. *Chuckle* "Yeah and take Concord ship in the process." Mason responded with a chuckle. His mind taken away just for a bit over the loss of Marco which still bothered him greatly. Seven grabbed her RA rifle from her back holding it. As she stood up from her seat she walked past Mason. She stepped off the back ramp and onto the ground. She looked around it was dark very dark just how it should be for this mission she thought to herself. She noticed a movement, she immediately aimed her weapon in the direction of the movement where now a dark figure was appearing. Slowly walking over to them Mason joined next to Seven also aiming his weapon just in case.
Elena aimed her sniper at the approaching figure as well it's head in her sights. "Identify yourself." Mason demanded from the figure in the dark. Seven lowered her RA rifle when she turned on her night vision. "Seven?" Mason asked confused. "You don't have to point those guns at me." The figure said. The figure walked forward into the light of the Osprey. Mason lowered his weapon in surprise.
"Commander Chief, you were waiting for us?" Mason asked the Chief. "Yes I was. But time is short Honor team, we only have six hours until it starts becoming the light again so follow me." Commander Chief said. He gestured Honor team to follow his lead. Mason nodded to his team. Amelia closed the Osprey's back ramp as she walked off the back ramp. The Chief looked back at Seven, knowing who she was he was surprised she was here. He nodded to her to acknowledge her. Seven gave a nod back.
Honor team followed the chief whom had entered a sprint. "So, Chief where's your team?" Mason asked as they were sprinting. "Waiting for us" the chief responded in a quick and simple answer. The Riftans sprinted several kilometers in a few minutes they past dozens of Concord patrols remaining hidden from all of them. They arrived at their destination.
Honor team finally linked up with the other Riftan-IIIs and Commander Chief's Riftan-II team. "Finally you arrived took you long enough." one of the Riftan-IIIs said to Mason. "Sorry about that we had to fly all the way from New Amsterdam to here. It took nearly half a day of flying to get us here." Mason responded to the Riftan-III leader of a team. "Everyone, you know the plan. Stealthly kill the guards surrounding of the Concord corvette. With your combat knife to avoid attracting attention and them warning the whole Concord we are here." The chief said. Everyone listened carefully to the chief.
"Let's go" the chief said. Everyone saluted the chief. All the Riftan teams got on the move they slowly covered the last 21 kilometer distance that the Concord corvette was from them. The 55 Riftan-IIIs silently took out the Concord forces in the surrounding area of the Concord corvette slowly moving forwards. Seven was stabbed her knife into the throats of tens of Concord having one of the highest kill counts currently on the mission.
Honor team and the other Riftans got closer and closer finally making it to the outskirts the Concord corvette. Amelia placed down a communication scrambler to block the Concord corvette from calling in any reinforcements. Amelia nodded to the chief, he than gave the sign the Riftans could move over to their guns and attack the corvette head on.
Seven grabbed her RA shotgun and opened fire first on a Senglo who was noticing many Durtan guards were dead. Seven shotgun shot pierced the Senglo's shields in an instant killing the Senglo immediately. Seven jumped over cover and moved in the other Riftans doing the same the Concord corvette realized they were under attack from Seven's shot alerting the Concord close to the entrance of the corvette they alerted the other Concord.
The Riftans stormed into the Concord corvette rapidly wiping the floor with the Concord. However the first Riftan did die as Concord plasma fire, melted through the Riftan's mark 2 Excalibur Armor killing the Riftan. The Riftans starred rapidly approaching the bridge of the Concord corvette. Dozens of Senglos got the drop on a few Riftan-IIIs the Senglos plasma swords melted straight through the Riftan-IIIs chest plates killing them instantly.
Seven saw this and immediately pulled her shotgun in the senglos direction and open fire killing all of them. Seven dropped her RA shotgun and turned around and punched a senglo behind her whom was using his stealth armor. Remaining nearly completely invisible to the normal naked human eye. But Seven's eyes were far superior than normal naked human eye. The senglo was sent back flying dozens of meters and hitting a wall extremely hard. from Seven's extremely hard hit with the strength of several metric tons of force behind it.
Seven picked up her shotgun she dropped and walked up to the Senglo. she aimed her RA Shotgun against the Senglo and fired killing the Senglo immediately. Seven than continued on towards the bridge. She arrived first at the bridge and stormed in firing her shotgun at the Durtans in front of her. She ducked down behind cover as the first plasma bolts flew by her. Seven grabbed a plasma grenade from the corpes of a Durtan. She did not activated it and threw it across the room. The Concord screamed in their own languages and tried to get out of the way.
The plasma grenade never detonated and when they realized Seven was already ripping through their numbers. The last Concord standing was the Senglo captain of the 900 meter long Concord corvette. Seven shot at himwith her RA shotgun his shields broke immediately like the rest did before him. He jumped just enough to the side however where Seven's shot didn't hit his heart of brain. But he was still hit in some of his major organs. He fell to the ground screaming in pain. Seven placed her RA Shotgun on her back and walked over to the Senglo captain. She picked him up. Seven grabbed him by his upper neck with her right hand, she than grabbed his torso with her left hand. And Seven than ripped the neck off from the Senglo captains torso. Bare handed she than dropped his. Body and severed head and neck to the ground.
Seven than grabbed her RA shotgun again and waited for the others to arrive. The other Riftans and honor team arrived shortly after having finished off the Concord in the ship. The other Riftan-IIIs were quite impressed by Seven's work in the bridge. Amelia turned off the communication scrambler. Outside the ship and gave a sign to Mason. "Soldiers the corvette has been secured, bring in the bomb." Mason contacted League soldiers waiting for his signal to bring in the Osprey with the 1 gigaton nuclear bomb. They fly the Osprey into the Concord corvette's hanger bay a few Riftan-IIIs were waiting for them. They unloaded the bomb from the Osprey.
The Riftans were now ready to assault the Concord supercarrier. The Osprey than left the Concord corvette heading back to safe territory. "Alright, chief, were ready to attack the Concord supercarrier." Mason said to the chief. Chief gave a nod. "Good, start up the ship." Chief responded. "At'aria you know how to fly this thing right?" Mason asked her. The other Riftans looked disgust to At'aria for her being a Concord. She noticed this and started to feel nervous. George noticed this and placed a hand on her shoulder. He gave her a comforting nod. At'aria nodded back to George.
"Yes, I do I'll fly us up to the supercarrier in orbit." At'aria said in a shy and scared tone. She than walked over to the controls of the ship and took control. She started up the corvette's engines and it took off. The trees around the corvette started shacking as the wind generated from the corvette taking off made them shack. The corvette moved very awkwardly. "You know what your doing right? Alien filth. One Riftan-III said to At'aria. She didn't answer, fear creeping up her spine.
George walked up to the Riftan-III who said that remark he towered over the Riftan-III. He placed his hand on the Riftan-III's shoulder and said "I know that we are all angry for what the Concord have done." George said in a understanding voice. "But we do not to blame her for everything the Concord have done. She feels the regret of what she was part off and is trying to make up for it." George said looking back At'aria. Before he looked back to the Riftan-III. "Alright ?" George finished in a friendly tone.
The Riftan-III nodded his head and said. "Alright I'll stop." George's words touched him enough for him to stop. George removed his hand and nodded back. At'aria Stabilized the ships movement. "I'm surprised you know how to operate the ship." Mason said as he walked up to At'aria. "I used to work in a corvette's bridge helping with operating the ship. Before I was forced to do maintenance work." At'aria said shyly. "How so?" Mason asked intrigued. "I don't wanna talk about it." At'aria responded with a bit of shame filling her tone. "Alright I won't push further." Mason replied.
At'aria pushed up the speed of the corvette, It moving quicker now. The Corvette broke through the atmosphere of Harvest and into space. "There it is our soon to be play ground, hoho." Ivan joked while rubbing his hands together. "What the fuck do you mean by that? You think this is a joke? One of the female Riftan-IIs of Commander Chief's team said her tone dead serious. "Whats wrong I'm not allowed to make my own ass retarded jokes now?" Ivan remarked sarcastically with a smirk. Which the Riftan-II could see as Ivan didn't have his helmet on. "You will quit that attitude" the Riftan-II said frustrated. A Riftan-III's hand touched Ivan. Ivan turned around and looked at him. "It's best you do not piss Lena off Riftan." A Riftan-III squad leader said to Ivan.
"Ha fine I'll quit for now." Ivan responded with a slight smirk. Annoying Lena again. The Chief shook his head before returning his gaze to the Concord supercarrier. Chief than turned on his comms. "Riftan teams, Charlie fire, five core, delta Alpha and Honor team, you all will assist me and my Riftans in bringing delivering the bomb to the reactor core of the supercarrier. The rest of you will stay here on the ship and defend it until we get back." The chief ordered through the comms. Those that are with me on this mission assemble in the hanger bay where the bomb is." The chief continued.
"And you Quorthian stay here. We will need you more here than on the supercarrier" the chief finished. At'aria nodded. All assigned team for bomb delivery than headed towards the hanger bay. They all arrived when the corvette started the docking procedure. "Finally my bones were aching from doing nothing" Ivan said to himself" Lena standing close to Ivan heard him say that to himself. She looked at him annoyed which Ivan noticed "Oh, what do you want more women?" Ivan said in a sarcastical tone. Lena looked away now ignoring Ivan. "Two focus" said in a commanding tone "Yeah yeah yeah, boss" Ivan said as he put his helmet back on.
The Corvette finally docked with the supercarrier in the back of the supercarrier. The hanger bay opened up as a few Durtan dock guards faced them. The Durtans were completely shocked seeing the Riftans standing in front of them not expecting it one bit. Seven moved first and took them out with little effort. She than knelt and gestured 6 other Riftan-IIIs to cover their position. They got out of the corvette and into the supercarrier to cover their position. "I'll carry the bomb I'm the strongest and Tallest one here so I will be least slowed down by." George volunteered
Chief, nodded. "Than you Honor team will protect your team mate and the rest of us will clear the way and keep the way safe for you." The chief give the order in response.
"Yes sir." Mason responded. George walked upto the bomb and said to Amelia. "Amelia, give me the bomb I'll carry it on my back. Since I have energy shielding and you guys don't, it'll protect the bomb better." Amelia nodded to George. "Alright, George I'll give you the bomb. Amelia said as she pressed on the panel of the 1 gigaton nuclear bomb's armored container. It opened with small hiss as it opened. Amelia walked from the side of the bomb's container to in front of it.
She grabbed the bomb from the container it. She carried the bomb over to George and she pressed onto George's back. She secured the bomb his back. "Alright George the bomb is secured to your back." Amelia said to George. "Good than let's get moving." George replied. Amelia nodded to George in response. Elena walked up to George. "George I hope out in one piece, after this."
Elena said with a hint of concern. "We will, I promise you that." George said as he placed his right hand on Elena's left helmet cheek. Elena grabbed onto his hand for just a moment before nodding. George than removed his hand and give a soft nod back. He than looked to Mason. "Sir, I got the bomb." George said to Mason as George walked up to him. "Good than were ready to move." Mason replied "Chief we're ready to move!" Mason shouted over to the chief. The chief nodded and said. "Than let's go!." He shouted back.
The Riftans all got around George to protect him for the journey. Seven got back in position with Honor team next to George. The Riftans got on the move and headed deeperinto the Concord supercarrier's hanger bay. The 24 Riftans remaining on the corvette went to covering the entrances of the corvette locking down the exterior blast doors of it.
The 24 Riftans, Honor team, Commander Chief and his team and the other Riftans that were now entering the halls of the supercarrier. Moved through the blast door from the hanger bay their stolen Concord corvette was. Entered a large central hallway. Chief grabbed a Senglo by the arm and slammed the Senglo's entire body against a wall. The Senglo tried to get back on. But had his back blown out by a RA shotgun from a Riftan-III. The insides of the senglo splattered everywhere in the hallway.
The Riftans moved quickly as Concord reinforcements were arriving. "How far Three, until we reach the reactor?" Mason asked Amelia as they were sprinting. "12 clicks from here and a million Concord along the way. until we reach the reactor" Amelia replied. "Great and that million isn't even an Exaggeration" Mason responded dread in his voice.
"Ha, a million connys now that's an fair fight." Ivan jokingly interrupted. "Oh look the first have arrived for playtime." Ivan jokingly remarked. The first few hundred Concord arrived and got in the way of the Riftans. The Riftans tore through them those hunderds of Concord were slaughtered in seconds. Than a second wave of thousands of Concord now got in the way they got ripped apart by the Riftans though at the cost of one of their own now only 23 were alive. Commander Chief slammed a heavy blast door shut at all riftans got through a blast door preventing the Concord from following them from that section they just came from. "9 clicks left to go" chief in formed everyone as they started sprinting again. Through tore through the ship. A few Silvoths got the jump on a Riftan-III Seven intervened immediately she pulled her RA shotgun in the throat of one and fired killing the Silvoth immediately.
She than grabbed the next one by the next and crushed it to a pulp. The last Silvoth tried to get away put Seven grabbed her by the ankle as she was trying to fly away from Seven. Seven slammed her to the ground breaking a few of her bones in the process of the heavy force Seven used. Seven than stamped the skull in of her. The Silvoths brains, shattered skull fragments and blood splattered over the floor. The three Silvoths were all dead in 8 seconds. The Riftan seven saved got up and thanked Seven before they moved on into a sprint again.
The Riftans continued on fighting through a thrid, fourth and a fifth wave of Concord units they killed thousands on their way. 6 more Riftan-IIIs had died on their way the entirety of team Charlie Fire was dead and most of team Five core and Delta Alpha was dead. They continued onwards regardless. The mission had to be finished. The Riftans arrived arrived at an elevator. "This elevator is the elevator we need to take to get to the reactor. It's the quickest way form what my map says of the supercarrier, I retrieved from the corvette we stole." Amelia said to everyone.
"Quick, open it up than" the chief said. Amelia nodded and open the locked elevator from hacking it's panel. George and Seven entered the elevator first. But as Mason, chief was entering with several other Riftans.
Amelia jumped out of the way just in time before a plasma bolt missed her. It instead hit the control panel of the elevator causing it to send a final signal as it melted. The Elevator door closed in front of Mason and chief before they could enter. The elevator was send downwards the system of the elevator facing a critical error preventing Seven from opening the doors on their end. And stopping its decent downwards.
Mason, chief and the Riftans got behind cover. "Dammit, they're separated from us. We need to meet back up with them now" Elena said with extreme concern. "No" the chief said. As two more Riftan-IIIs died ending team Five Core. "What?" Mason asked? "We do not have the bomb anymore to continue. and we neither know which floor they are on. We have to retreat because we can't finish this mission. I'm sorry." The chief said in a authoritive voice.
"So we are leaving them behind?" Elena said her concern growing far more for George. "Yes, I'm sorry but we have too. Now let's move before we are completely pinned down." Chief said as he got up and fired his RA assault rifle.
"Sir we can't leave them behind." Elena said to Mason. "I know and i dont leave them either. But they will finish this mission and comback I'm certain." Mason finished his sentence. He know Seven had the experience to safe themselves both. 11 remaining Riftans under chief moved back to the corvette.
The elevator hit the destination floor. The doors of it opened an George and Seven moved out of it. "Fuck were separated we need to regroup with the others." George said aith deep concern. Seven looked at him shaking her head as she walked past him. "Than what do we do, Seven? Retreat ourselves?" George asked Seven. Seven stopped and moved her head over to look at George over her shoulder. George's body reflected in her helmet's visor. She than said "Negative, we finish the mission." Seven responded in a cold, efficient voice.
"Of course, you want too. I still have the bomb on my back after all." George said with a sigh. "Alright than let's do this." He finished. Seven gave a nod to him. As she continued onwards. George followed her. The two entered a sprint. There was little resistance as most Concord troops were deployed to deal with the Riftans in the corvette and the Riftans under chief currently in the supercarrier.
The two only had to cover a distance of 4 kilometers until they reached the reactor. Seven and George wiped the floor with anyone they came into contact with Seven through a plasma grenade at a Elsari Matriarch and her Elsari guards they didn't suspect it. And they paid the price for it with their lives. Seven covered George the best she could taking out the front fire and dealing with the enemies while George kept the bomb safe. Seven herself only got hit by one plasm shot one on her upper left arm armor plating. Not doing much damage to her armor.
The last 2 kilometers went without a hitch. As they reached the supercarriers reactor. Seven pressed the panel but the heavy blast doors protecting the reactor didn't open. So Seven put her RA shotgun on her back and placed her hands on the heavy blast door. George joined in. They together forcefully slid the blast door open breaking it in the process so it remained open. They both went in. They killed the Quorthian engineers and Durtan, Senglo gaurds in the massive reactor room. George walked over to next the reactor and remove the bomb from his back and placed it down as he knelt to place it on the ground carefully. His face was pale, hidden behind his helmet. George stood up. And he said. "Seven, go the range detonation receiver apparently is broken. A plasma shot hit the bomb apparently. It now needs a manual detonation." George said in a saddened tone. But he continued. "They need you more than me." He continued, as he grabbed his dog tags.
He walked over to Seven and gave them to Seven. "Tell Enela, that I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise. And tell her that love her with all heart." George finished his sentence a tear went down his face behind his helmet. His saddened tone grew even more saddened. As Seven grabbed his dog tags, she responded with, "I will" in a softer tone than she ever said before. Even something that sounded like a hint of sadness to George but he wasn't sure.
"Thank, Seven. The others have already left the supercarrier. I'll detonate the supercarrier." George said as he looked to the bomb. And than back to Sevn
George nodded to Seven as she walked to the edge of the ledge. The large one kilometer across plasma vent tunnel below her. Seven looked down it and turned around to face George one last time. "I'll hold them off until your a safe distance Seven, from the supercarrier and detonate this bomb." George said his tone sad. Seven gave a salute and leaned with her back off the ledge down to the plasma vent tunnel. George give a final nod as Seven leaned off the platform. And turned around to face the Concord horde that was now running towards him over the 500 meter bridge he and Seven just walked over. He readed his RA minigun. Seven heard it fire. As she continued to fall down the plasma vent tunnel. Hee descent in creased rapidly as the artificial gravity of the ship pulled her down the vent tunnel.
George's shooting faded into the distance as she continued to fall through the 5 kilometer vent tunnel she finally reached the massive plasma beam cannon that was the size of a League of Nations frigate in the last 500 meters of the tunnel. Seven fell past it avoiding hitting anything. She finally reached the end of the now plasma cannon end of the plasma vent tunnel. She past through it finally existing the ship into space. Her Excalibur Armor was air tight lucky.
She now began descending down towards the planet and re-entered into Harvest's atmosphere. George's finally ran out of ammunition. Ten thousand Concord died to him and thousands more were on the way he knew. He dropped his RA minigun to the ground it was useless now. He looked over to the bomb and walked over to the bomb he knelt down next to it. He was ready he thought to himself.
He checked Seven's distance from the supercarrier she had descended 36 kilometers. "Good, she's out of the contained blast radius of the bomb" he said to himself. He opened the manual hatch of the bomb. He waited a bit allowing Seven to get to an even safer distance. Than his thoughts to Elena, he sighed "I'm sorry Elena that I couldn't keep my promise."
He pulled his helmet off. A tear fell down on his helmet. he pressed button and than for a slightest of moments, nothing happened than George's vision overwhelmed by a bright white light. And than nothing. The bomb went off the one gigaton explosion teated through the supercarrier. Everyone and everything was evaporated in an instant the blast was tens of kilometers wide. It was still contained somewhat by the super structure of the Supercarrier but it was ripped apart from the inside out. Seven saw it detonate as she entered the atmosphere. Her thoughts were silent as she saw the explosion.
As she descended to the Surface of Harvest. The Riftans that survived on were on the corvette a hunderd kilometers away. They saw the massive explosion as well. "They did it, they actually did it." Mason said with a smile on his face. "But did they get off the ship?" Amelia asked concerned. "I hope so. George promised me we would all make it out of it alive." Elena answered fearing the worsed hadn't happened. The chief looked onwards impressed those two actually did it on their own.
The Corvette flew back to the surface of Harvest. It wasn't save remain in orbit. Seven looked into the distance of space as she fell back to the night side of the planet. She saw Rift Stream openings she knew the Concord had arrived in force now. The end of Harvest truly has arrived now she thought to herself as she continued to fall back to the surface.
