I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. President Ronald Reagan, United Nations General Assembly, 21 September 1987
High above the world, eyes looked down coldly. There was no need for them to speak. They had their Purpose. It would be done. The alien craft, a saucer-shaped construction, sleek and flawless, slipped into the atmosphere. It was cruising in the lower atmosphere when one of the native's war-craft was detected. It approached, clearly on an attack vector. Different native fighters had tried before, no match for the armaments of the aliens.
Destroy it. There must be no interference.Obediently, weapons locked onto the native fighter. A single shot was prepared. No more had been needed to vapourise the primitive steel and aluminum structures used by the natives. The plasma beam reached out and splashed across the fighter, and the attention of the slaves in the alien craft already were turning away when their screens beeped. The native fighter was still active. It had launched missiles.
One of the slaves had time to see the missiles just before they struck. If it had somehow been able to look at the missile in the brief second before detonation, it would have seen there was writing on the side in one of the native languages:
"E.T. Go Home".
Deep beneath the hills of Wales, United Kingdom, a room erupted in cheers. The Commander, however, did not crack a smile, their steely eyes gazing at the main screen.
"Strike One condition?"
"Already airborne, Commander." The reply crackled back.
The Commander's expression did not change. In a way, the interceptor had the easy job.
OPERATION BRONZE SHARK - TURN 1
It had been a short journey in the Skyranger. Stike One stepped out the craft, staring about. All the drills, the training… it lead up to this moment.
“Green to go, Strike One. Good luck,” Cloudview, the Skyranger pilot, radioed in. “I’ll remain on station in case evac is needed.”
