0800 Hours
In the Capital City of Washington DC, the atmosphere remained the same as the early 21st century with old architecture style to keep history alive. The United Earth Congress building was built in the city with trees surrounding it and it seems that in front of it was a big road that seemed to only have one purpose, a parade. The building still remained standing after it finished being built in 2033 CE painted in white with a similar design to the United States Congress. As the big road, it was wide, almost 80 metres wide but as for today, it was closed due to an event celebrated on the next day. A big stage was set up in front of the UEC building with three huge screens set up side by side.
Among the busy roads filled with cars and trucks in Washington DC, a Black SUV stood out the most. Inside the SUV was a man dressed in white with a 5 star Admiral stripe on his shoulders. Sitting in front of him was his trust worthy subordinate.
“Sir, it will probably take around 8 minutes to get to the Pentagon in this traffic.” Said the subordinate to the Admiral.
“8 minutes?” the Admiral suddenly sighed and looked down. The man is Admiral John Bush, the only 5 Stars Admiral and the Chief of Space Operation of the United Earth Space Force.
“What is it, sir?” The subordinate asked
“Tomorrow is the 125th anniversary. I haven't prepared my speech yet” Admiral Bush replied before covering his face with both of his hands while still looking down to the floor. “I need to go to the Space Station to check on things with my own eyes.”
“Ohh.” Said the Subordinate after hearing Admiral Bush words
“Anyway, how's the operation on Mars?” Asked Admiral Bush. “And the mining on the Asteroid Belt?”
“The mining stations still make no mistake and the shipyard…” the Subordinate answered while looking at the tablet he held on his left hand.
“I want the shipbuilding to run at full capacity for 6 months” Admiral Bush cut immediately
“20 SuperNova Class Block 3 every week for the next half a year!?” The subordinate was immediately surprised by Admiral Bush’s order.
“I am just joking. Why would I build more space battleships?” said Admiral Bush. “Aren't all SuperNova Class in storage finished upgrading to Block 3?”
“Yes, you are absolutely right.” His subordinate continued “All 700 finished upgrading for now.”
The inside of the car suddenly went into complete silence. Admiral Bush’s subordinate was using his tablet, checking things while Admiral Bush was still covering his face with both of his hands and he seemed to be thinking of something.
“I have a bad feeling.” said Admiral Bush after lifted his face up “Our Nation has been at peace for almost 125 years and I think this peacefulness won’t last long.” He looked out of the car window and saw a SuperNova Class Block 1 Space Battleship, the biggest battleship ever built in mankind’s history with a length of nearly 800 metres, flying not far away. “Our future might depend on AI-controlled vessels.”
Pentagon, Virginia
0810 Hours
Admiral Bush’s car finally arrived at the Pentagon. The New Pentagon was huge compared to the old one. Being over 4 times bigger than the Pentagon built back in WW2, it was the biggest office building ever with over 35,000 Military Personal and Civilians workers and an estimate of over 5000 non-defence support personnel. The car parked in the parking space beside the building. Admiral Bush and his subordinate got out of the car and made their way into the Pentagon. As he walked further into the building, military personnel saluted him. Through the long hallway, there were photos of important Space Force’s Admiral and Vice Admiral for the past 125 years. Admiral Bush was the 25th Chief of Space Operation since each 5 stars Admiral could only hold 5 years in power. One photo stood out the most which showed Admiral John Regan, the 6th Chief of Space Operation and the person behind the Great Expansion. Admiral Bush reached a door and opened and the room was his meeting room. As he opened the door, two people were sitting inside, waiting for him. Admiral Bush entered the room and a person dressed in a black suit got up from his chair and gave Admiral Bush a handshake.
“So, you're the head of the AI department of Atlas Corporation?” Asked Admiral Bush after he took a gaze at the man
“Yes, sir. I am the lead developer of the 560 Series Intelligent Quantum Computer.” Said the man
“You're Mr. Palmer?” Said Admiral Bush shortly after he noticed a name tag pinned to he man’s coat.
“Yes, it's me, Alan Palmer.” Mr. Palmer replied immediately.
“Well, I guess you brought me the new 560A, right?” Asked Admiral Bush as he looked at what seemed to be a white box on the table.
“Yes,” replied Mr. Palmer.
“Shall we take a seat?” Admiral Bush walked to his chair and as he sat down, Mr. Palmer walked to the box and started plugging cables to it. The big screen in front of the table suddenly lit up, showing an operating system booting up.

“This is the XM5-01 OS, it is the first OS to allow AI models to be self-developed.” Said Mr. Palmer as he started doing his staff that Admiral Bush was trying to get a good idea of.
“Hmm, self-developing AI, isn't that dangerous?” Asked Admiral Bush.
“No, the AI only runs on a virtual interface that cannot affect the current operating systems. It's like running a virtual machine on a PC” Answered Mr. Palmer as he started the AI programme and codes started to be written.
“My parents once bought a 550C back when I was young, from what I understand, that 560A is currently creating an AI model, am I right?” Asked Admiral Bush again as the code reminded him when he first touched the 550C when he was around 16 years old.
“Yes, it's currently building an AI model.” Replied Mr. Palmer “And it will take another few seconds and.. Done. The AI model is successfully built.”
“How many do you currently have?” Asked Admiral Bush as he pointed at the 560A with a pen on his right hand.
“Err, we can manufacture 700 560A according to the number of SuperNova Class Block 3 needing this Quantum Computer. It will take a week.” Mr. Palmer answered.
“Good” replied Admiral Bush before he got up from his chair and left the room without saying anymore words. His subordinate just digitally signed the paper to Mr. Palmer for Admiral Bush.
1st July, 2155CE
0800 Hours
The day finally came, Unity Day. On the big road built in front of the United Earth Congress's building were filled with people holding signs showing the United Earth Federation flag and many more texts. As for the stage set up the day before, the three screens showed the United Earth Federation flag. Admiral Bush was standing on the stage with 3 other chief of Operations. Admiral Bush, being the person holding the most military power in the whole Armed Force walked up the microphone and he put on what appeared to be sunglasses.
“Hello everyone and thank you for joining us on this every important day of our nation” said Admiral Bush to the microphone in front of the huge and long crowd of happy and excited people from all around the world and from Super Earth. Behind him, there were the rest of Chief of Operations of the rest of the Armed Force branches, standing while listening carefully to Admiral Bush's speech. “Today is the 1st of July, 2155. Today marks the 125th year of the creation of our unified nation, United Earth Federation. I expressed gratitude for this unification as it not only makes us, humans from Earth, achieve things we thought to be impossible and also helps us to colonize other star systems faster than we anticipated.” Admiral Bush continued his speech as the crowd went silent, listening to this speech “We managed to prevent global warming here on Earth thanks to advanced energy generation but also to all of you, United Earth Federation citizens, who put all of your heart into protecting this planet which we called home. This planet is the only reason why we were able to survive until we finally were able to colonise other planets, she also protects us from the harmful radiation released by the Sun. So, all we have to do is protect this little rock, repay everything this planet has done to us, and allow us to live to this day. Thank you”.
The crowd started cheering for the speech as News outlets reported on this event.
“Here in Washington DC, a huge crowd of people attend this ceremony celebrated every year for the past 125 years. Admiral Bush, Chief of Space Operation of the United Earth Space Forces finished his speech to the crowd” said a CNN reporter on the stage as the camera moved, showing a huge crowd of people and all 4 Chief of Operations leaving the stage.
A F-22 Raptor, F-47 Raptor II, and a SF-35 Lighting IV did a fly over the crowd, releasing blue powder into the sky, signifying peace because for the past 125 years, the UEF hadn't gone into any war yet. The flyover of all three fighters also showed how technology had improved for the past 163 years, since the first flight of F-22 Raptor in 1991 CE, F-47 Raptor II in 2036 CE, and SF-35 Lighting IV in 2153
CE.
United Earth Coast Guard 1st Coastal Security Fleet
Kuiper Belt
3rd of July, 2155CE
The United Earth Earth Coast Guard’s 1st Coastal Security Fleet was sailing around the solar system, guarding the Kuiper Belt from enemy ships. The fleet was reasonably large with 30 Nebula Class Super Space Battleships and 1 Admiral Class Super Space Carrier, UECG Admiral RASC-01, it was the biggest fleet in the United Earth Coast Guard. The Nebula Class Super Space Battleship was one of the longest vessels in the United Earth Armed Force with a length of 600 metres. Each of them was equipped with 4 Triple Barrels Mark-25 Positron Cannons which were old but still got the jobs done. As the UECG Admiral RASC-01, it had a length of 800 metres, the same as the SuperNova Class Super Space Battleship but its primary job was to carry large amounts of spacecraft and it was also used to conduct planetary assault and invasion. Admiral Class used to be used by the United Earth Space Force but when the Olympus Mons Class Super Space Carrier was commissioned in 2080 CE, the Admiral Class was transferred to the Coast Guard's arsenal.
UECG Admiral RASC-01
Inside the Bridge of the UECG Admiral RASC-01 was a man standing inside, his name was Vice Admiral Ted Rander, commander of the United Earth Coast Guard’s 1st Coastal Security Fleet.
“Hmm, there seems to be warp signatures.” Said Vice Admiral Ted as he looked closely at the Dimensional Sonar. “No, no, no.” He walked away from the Sonar operator.
“Go to Pluto Now!” Shouted Vice Admiral Ted to the Navigation officer.
“Sir! 400 Warp out Signature detected near Pluto!” Shouted Dimensional Sonar operator.
“I repeat, Battlestation, I order all of the ships in this fleet to slip to the given coordinates as there are warped out signatures near Pluto” said Vice Admiral Ted as he told the Navigation officer to send the coordinates to the rest of the fleet.
“Sir, ready to Jump”. Said the Navigation officer.
“Jump, Now!” said Vice Admiral Ted
All of the ships in the fleet suddenly fired their engines, facing the same direction. Those ships suddenly seemed to be pushing through something and all 31 ships disappeared. The ships entered Subspace, a space that existed within the normal space and was surrounded by the Quantum Barrier and needed to be pierced through to enter the subspace and the only drive known to have the ability to pierce through the Quantum Barrier was the Quantum Subspace Drive. Thanks to the latest Quantum Subspace Drive's ability to push a ship to 200,000c, the fleet made it to the next location in mere milliseconds and every ship pierced through the Quantum Barrier for the final time and entered normal space.
5000 km away from Pluto
The fleet made it to Pluto in less than a few seconds. Beside Pluto was a huge fleet of enemy's battleships traversing near Pluto with no clear intention. These Battleships were the same size as the United Earth Coast Guard’s Nebula Class but with only 2 front and 1 rear triple barrels Positron Cannons.
“Oh My god” said Vice Admiral Ted as he looked at the huge enemy fleet which consisted of 400 unidentified space battleships.
“Sir, we successfully connected to their comms network” said the Communication officer.
“This is the United Earth Coast Guard’s 1st Coastal Security Fleet. I repeat, you have entered deep into our territory.” said Vice Admiral Ted to the comms network. “Have you identified them?” he asked the Tactical operator.
“Yes, this appears to be Oriented Republic’s Pegasus Class Super Space Battleship according to its design and configuration. It is equipped with two forward and one backwards triple Barrels Positron Cannons with 50 missiles VLS Cells on its side” The Tactical officer answered after a brief moment of scanning the Battleships in the enemy fleet.
“It can’t be real.” said Vice Admiral Ted after he heard the name ‘Oriented Republic’ “We’re being invaded by the Oriented Republic!!” Shouted Vice Admiral Ted “Get this message to Admiral Bush, Now!”
“Sir, no response from the enemy fleet.” said the Communication officer after waiting patiently for a response.
“Send a message to the United Britannain Kingdom that we are about to get invaded” said Vice Admiral Ted.
The enemy fleet’s 400 Pegasus Class Super Space Battleships aimed their turrets and started firing their Positron Cannons at the 1st Coastal Security Fleet. Green Beams were everywhere, travelling with great speed toward the 1st Coastal Security Fleet as these Battleships fired their Positron Cannons one after another. These Beams hit the Nebula Class’s newly upgraded Energy Absorbing Shield and these Beams got absorbed easily but some weren't so lucky and their Energy Absorbing Shields were suddenly broken and were now vulnerable to enemy's fire which made them got hit and sunk.
“Return Back Fire, Now!” shouted Vice Admiral Ted.
All of the Nebula Class in the fleet consist of UECG Nebula SB-01 to UECG Nebula BB-30 turned to their portside to utilise all of their Positron Cannons at once. Their powerful Triple Barrels Mark-25 Positron Cannons aimed at the enemy fleet and started firing at the enemy’s battleships with pinpoint accuracy thanks to advanced 550W XR Intelligent Quantum Computer on board each ships doing all of the calculations in mere milliseconds due to its super fast Quantum Computing Processing Unit (QCPU). Due to the enemy's Energy Absorbing Shield still maturing, the Nebula Class used their Point Blank Shot mode which easily overwhelmed their energy shield, causing it to break.
As the fight continued, the United Earth Coast Guard’s 2nd Coastal Security fleet finally came. The fleet was as big as the 1st Coastal Security Fleet, consisting from UECG Nebula SB-06-31 to UECG Nebula SB-60 and an Admiral Class Super Space Carrier, UECG Admiral RASC-02.
