now if I were to tell you that High is very much wanting us to perform with our best in the operation I would be lying to you high wants us to perform with up most Perfection, well if they wanted that they should have gotten someone else to do this job other than me. the orders given were something to behold as we were going to fulfil our purpose, the recapture of H-55 from the Aku-no.
Phase 1 of the op is for my team to do recon for a week in the sector then after that week is done set up shop near Entry point to H-55 we then build up and defend until we think the time is right for Phase 2 to start, when Phase 2 starts hell is going to get a new layer, the assault will begin for the recapture of H-55. my team for when we give the signal to start are to head to H-55's school zone and set up there for advanced combat missions or reinforcement's from Command of high, this will be said to take 3-4 weeks of combat with the toll of death being that of 800,000 people to take back one lost sector, if all of the sectors require us to have to send this many to die over hundreds of sectors we would die out ending the time Homo-sapiens were ever here but for the start of trying to take back the lost sectors he is going to be hard to accept but is has to be done as much I would like to Not have this happen, now a lot will say this will go against my moral code or betray my character.
thing is I have always noticed sacrifices made to protect others and a slaughter of people trying to fight for something that can’t be won, I see this as both a slaughter and a sacrifice for chance to see this might succeed I hope it will but it will probably won’t be won which if it is not a success then call me a mass murder as I am will be one of many people to send off the people of last light to die for something that seems like a pipe dream and that pipe dream is something I want to become true.
Phase 3 the clean-up of H-55 after the battle in said sector. Now even though we are not to share this we have to debrief the team on what we are going to do but then I read the last sheet of paper saying that the whole team has authorization to know key parts of what we are going to do, now to explain what we are going to do is going to be hard as I am not one for speech's but it needs to be done.
"Kimber round them up for briefing" Kimber nods as he also read the orders he had a different reaction to mine but still somewhat the same, I wonder if he has someone to go home to, someone to care for, someone that loves him, only time will tell if he did have someone to go home to then if he died under me how would I react who knows.
I head to the main courtyard to where I see the whole team standing waiting hoods, mask, gear, weapons, and some personal things. all they did was sit there and wait for me to arrive to debrief them on what we are going to do, I step onto the stage and speak "listen closely death-bringers of last light we have an operation to conduct in sector H-55, yes the lost sector, we are to insert in and commence recon operations in the sector, after we have done sufficient reconnaissance we are to set up a forward operating base in the school distract of H-55 after which we are to fortify the FOB the best we can, then we are to send a signal to the main force to begin the assault on H-55 as such when battle has started we are to provide support for the teams in the assault, this will include scouting, medivac, fire support and reinforce the teams against the Aku-no, now if any Death-bringers want to leave and not fight I will not put it past you, you may have family at home, if you do so wish to not fight during this operation you will be put into Loggie roles for the attack and you will not leave the team, now who wants to fight back"

the whole team even Kimber stood there in shock after what I had said to them, the court yard was laid with a deathly silence no one wanted to talk, then one of the men spoke up "sir, we joined because we knew we are going to die someday and have accepted that fact, we joined to die hoping that one day Last Light will be rid of these monsters, mutants or whatever they are we want the city to be free so that the generations after us will be free and live in a cage like we are" again the court yard was filled with silence then as if after what that man had said they all stared to say "I will not cower" or "I wish for future that's not like this" or "I may die, but I others to be safe" right then and there I knew I had the mightiest team in all of the world, I might as well call them my new family. a tear slowly ran down my face with a smile that none can see.
I straighten and start acting like a commander "alright then if you wish to explore the hell we are creating get your gear and head to the trucks for deployment tomorrow I will let you all say goodbye to those you love and care for as this maybe the last time you see them" all them salute me and salute them back and they start to do what was ordered that also goes for me as well. I see Kimber waiting for me like he is dog waiting for owner to return "stop waiting for me just go you like a puppy" he looks at me with me a smile "oh, and why would this puppy leave a dumbass like you alone to do more dumb things, someone needs to watch you" I look at him, this question has been plaguing my mind for a while now I suppose now is time to ask, that voice again. "Kimber what is your first name I have been wondering for a long time now" he looks at me in question wondering why do I want to know his name "it is Toby sir why do you ask" I look to him and smile then we both walk to the armoury.
----------------------------------------
a letter has reached Jacob to tell Elizbeth/Beth, Jack, Isaac and Nicole of why and where he is going to be in that letter is says his goodbye to the people there if he were to die, also in the letter had what was going to happen which was allowed to spread though out the civilians but not my team and what the stages of the operation where. Jacob was looking at this letter with eyes of disbelief and called everyone to meet at his place.
it takes them a while to do so, after everyone is there and ready here the letter Jacob wants them to know something first "look Richard he our friend I know that but something just feels off when he was around the last time we were to meet something has happened to him and it’s something goddamn important" they all look at him in agreement "you know it Richard he has always had that aura around him that just fells off to whoever is near him" they all look at jack with questioning looks wondering what he meant about Richard.
After what Jack had said a little piece of paper fell from the envelop, Jack notices along with Isaac, they both look at the little paper receiving the attention of the others toward it as well, Jack picks it up and reads it only to have horror to paint his face

after the day had been passed the men of team 5165 or know as to High Bringer'O'Death is ready for the operation to start, all of them sitting and waiting then the crackle of the radio starts from each UC (Unit Commander), AUC(Assault Unit Commander) and SUC(Scout Unit Commander) all shush the people in each truck waiting for the call to move out.
"Operation Phoenix is a go all units move out"
