General Michaels walked into the conference room in the main mansion, joining Coronel Ryker, Chief Skeer, and the cabinet members waiting for him to finish a phone call.

The pressure in the atmosphere multiplied, making the atmosphere suffocating as everyone waited for him to speak.

"I have confirmation that all five bases have your people in motion." General Michaels announced, "Unless there are caravan issues, everyone should be at Lainwright by 8 pm.

We've received word that the official title for the civilians is [hostage], as it was necessary to ease the tension between the soldiers. It's necessary to ensure their safety."

"That's fine; good work." The emperor nodded, "Now, gentlemen. What are your plans?

I'm sure you know today is the last day you have to decide upon your and your soldiers' fates."
