The Triton had finally entered low orbit and Oscar was on the bridge observing earth itself.
"Comrade Diederich! We have our results from the Triton's first operation. Ten Kesalian vessels were sunk and nearly a squadrons worth of fighters shot down. But of course the Ruvanian fleet has taken a beating...but I am afraid they've discovered a fatal flaw in our EDS!
(EDS: Electrosphere Deflection System) ", one of the crewmen said.
"They will have a hard time exploiting it though. One of the Wyvernian's managed to weaken the EDS but not destroy it...that will not make a difference though as I have quite a plan against the WePAC..." Oscar replied
"We'll increase the energy output, that will render the shield completely impenetrable!", the crewman said.
"But first my comrade....we will deal with Boomslang's...they seem to be a glimmer of hope for the disillusioned WePAC forces, we managed to shoot down one of their high ranking pilots but according to the intel I have received he was rescued from the Cinaltan sea and possibly responsible for the EMP attack on our glorious Triton. Of course priorities are important and the one we must eliminate at all costs is Captain Anthony Martinez...he has been a thorn on my side for quite a while." Before Oscar could continue the woman responsible for shooting down Anthony entered the room.
"I will personally take care of Martinez...I will make him suffer and CURSE the day he received his wings! But even then it would be too generous after what his mother and father had done to my Aunt Charlotte over Esknar just after as I was born." replied the female pilot

"Ved'ma...still have the red mist burning inside of you I see." Oscar said.
Ved'ma didn't reply as she turned around and headed back to her quarters. When she made it to her quarters she laid down on her bed and thought of the past...the past from her days as a trainee pilot in the Kesalian Air Force, how she used to take subtle glances at one of her fellow pilots and the day that she nearly killed him and her fellow pilots due to a mistake that influenced her defection. But before she could continue on she heard a knock on her door. She got up from her bed and opened the door to one of her fellow pilots.
"Ved'ma! Get suited up we are headed to Ruvania...we need to protect the bunker housing Comrade Diederich's most trusted General's as he feels that the Boomslang's may launch an attack sooner rather than later...also I heard what you did to Yastreb back in Esknar when dealing with that Wyvernian...if you dare shoot down one of my pilots again I will kill you myself."
"Understood."
Brooke and her wingmen headed to the Triton's Hangar and entered their Vidhi's, they started their engines and awaited the Triton's descent to the atmosphere. When the Triton was close enough the took off and headed to their assigned destination.
"Ved'ma I will make something very clear to you and your wingmen, if you three are shot down in battle and killed or captured I will resort to my last option...a scorched earth policy of Ruvanian and the entire continent...switching communication." Oscar said.
"A scorched earth policy...the entire continent? This is not what I signed up for, but I will do what I must to bring victory to Ruvania" Brooke thought to herself....
