Chapter 6: Prelude to Martian Cataclysm

"The crisis named "the tadpoles" has spread to the Kuiper belt and has successfully conquered the self-proclaimed bulwark against the former, pluto, Societal unrest increases on both Mars and Earth as people once again protest against the Venture Star program, this time, more violently, as they accuse the United States of wasting their money on the USS-Venture Star when they should've used the budget to develop weapons of mass destruction. This was backed up by Martian citizens, who declared that they must fight. The reporter on the television of an unknown person displayed on the flat screen as the unknown person and his family kept their eyes on the screen.

"Hold, I've been relaid some more news…..It is by declaration by the United Nations security council to evacuate the outer planets and belt settlements. Refugee ships have been launched and are on course for Ceres and Eros," the reporter says as she reads through the script, which ends.

"This is CNN Interplanetary, out." The LED television flickers as it automatically switches to Amazon TV, where the family was originally watching the show "The Expanse."

The father exhaled a sigh as he stood up.

"Where are you going?" The wife asked as she held her child.

The father, named Miller, puts on his detective cap and jacket as he then turns to his wife.

"I'm evacuating both of you to the UNSS-Hyugo, one of the refugee ships heading here. " Miller says as his wife had a deep look.

"So you're telling me you're gonna stay here?!" She lashes out as their baby starts to whimper.

"Nope, I've been chosen for the venture star program as its head ops director and intelligence commander. I thought I concealed my background well but it seems they broke in and found out I was the former CIA agent who single-handedly infiltrated and caused a civil war with my team of the defunct Italian revolutionaries." As he said, her wife was just glaring at her husband, speechless.

"Which also means I'll be taking one of those stealth ships my close friend Quaritch was taking on Pluto." Miller's wife was just there, standing and glaring at her husband before reacting and slapping him.

"For fuck's sake!" She pauses as she threw a flower vase against the wall "Are you saying you're abandoning us to rot on this godforsaken solar system?" As she lifts her spout, Miller's wife raises her voice to her husband.

"Fuck you, miller; I hope you perish in interstellar space."I knew i shoudve joined the protest" Before speed walking out of the door with her spawn. Leaving Miller as he stood there, contemplating his life before exhaling and walking out, Displaying the full view of Ceres station, a giant O'Neill cylinder is inside the hollowed-out dwarf planet. Although not an O'Neill cylinder, it is similar to one.

Miller walked through the paved cement pathway beside the plains of Ceres station as he entered a building where he was identified by a complex machine through hologram or laser identification. Before the bulletproof door slid open, he was met by two humanoid drone bots and was escorted inside.

Miller was then soon escorted by UN personnel as he walked through the dock and sat on a comfortable seat aboard the UNSS-Osiris, an Amun-ra class stealth-ship.

The Osiris detaches from ceres station as its RCS thrusters maneuver it to face the exit before doing a 1G burn. with the disdain of Miller as he threw up on his personal barf bag. Then thrown to the recycle bin as he had to suffer this immense G force. While the men escorting him mock him, calling him "weak bones" or "Belter wannabe. Obviously not in a racist sense, but as amusing sarcasm.

==========================

10 hours later

As they slow down to fine speeds, 10 dozen ships from Mars decelerate into an intercept course with Earth.entering the entrance points as they dock at Ceres dockyard.

As the dock opens, multiple UN personnel come out, assisted by drones, as they order most of Ceres' population to get into a single file line to enter the 900-meter-long refugee ships.

Some people try to rush inside but are stopped by UN drone personnel providing additional fire support and a product from Boston Dynamics, the systems fifth richest company.

People abide by the rules set by the Martian UN marines as they enter the wide interior of the ships. All are able to hold the population of Ceres at 550 thousand inhabitants.

As the hours passed, all evacuees were carefully exported to the refugee ships. As all refugee ships detach from the now abandoned Ceres station, its Tokamak is still in the process of being extracted to reuse it for scrap parts.

All of the refugee ships accelerate at 0.5 gs for the ease of the Ceres inhabitants as they head for the next bulwark. Mars.

====================================

Outer planets

In a time of desperation, the colonized moons of Saturn were evacuated by civilian-owned ships to escape the next assault of the tadpoles/terrans. in a combined 1 million refugees from Saturn's moons. Mostly from the Titan colony.

This is due to the fact that, in a feyl swoop, the tadpoles could accelerate and get into an intercept course with Saturn. Jupiter's colonies are also evacuated, but to Earth, despite the fact that they are not in the same situation as Saturn.

======================

As a result of the resulting refugee crisis on Earth and Mars, a large group of racists was causing social unrest. AKA the KKK has moved away from black people as it has turned obsolete to Non-inners.

Harassing and beating Belters on Mars, Earth, and Luna, non-KKK simply denigrates Belters in the Interplanet.and in front of them as guards try to displace the 2.

Fights start all over between Inners and Outers, even when a crisis is on our doorstep, it doesn't stop the people's opinions against each other.....
