The mission commence

The participants sit calm and patient as the C-1500 enters Krakens atmosphere, at a speed of nearly 200kts and an altitude of about 1800km quickly desending, although they had done many simulation on their base planet, for the lvl 1 cadets this was their first real mission, tension hung in the cabin as the C-1500 silently cruises through the night sky, finally a stern voice broke the silence, in each other's coms, a voice resounded, it was the major command,

"I am major Gerald, your may have already received the detail of your mission, but I will quickly brief it again"

*Private coms

"Hmm, he must think we are amateurs who know nothing, just because we have cadets before our names"

"Yeah! We are Vangaurd cadets, it's not the same thing"

"I agree"

"I concor"

"Definetely"

"Enough! Quiet and listen to the briefing"

"Understood, Captain"

"Apologies sir"

*major Gerald

"This type of airborne operation are normally given to the unawakened forces, but this reaction from the natives was unexpected, our special forces a spread far and thin, and this is a chance for you to widen you horizons"

"Understood Sir!"

"Prepare to jump at my order, the ramps will be pulling back now brace yourselfs"

As they lowed the speed and altitude, the aircraft suddenly begun to shake frantically, it's inbuilt stabilisation software tries to stabilise it to no avail, they had been caught in a telekinetic disturbance caused by the Trelfs to impede and avoid ariel combat as they posesed no means of ariel combat, any aircraft that came within range would be faced with a pulling force that would, if given the chance, bring it crashing, The Pilot in charge (PIC), pulls up in an attempt to escape the disturbance field, he succeeds, evident of his experience and the C-1500'S ability for vertical takeoff.

If it were any airbone unit, he might have had to abort the mission, but these were full fledge transendents, they were the pride and the result of the human race's resilience and nobility, even from that altitude he was confident in dropping them.

"There has been a development, due to telekinestic disturbances, we cannot afford to lower our altitude, lest we be compromised, we are now at an altitude of 200km"

"Understood, it is the emperor's will that this planet be won, we will not retreat until it fufilled."

The PIC nod's, showing his approval of their loyalty and fearlessness in regards to their service to the human race, the ramp starts to draw slowly, letting in a cold gush of wind evident of the pressure in the high altitude, the cabin was filled with a disciplined line up of impressive cadets, in the new gen stealth armour , equipped with the latest technologies, one could tell at a glance they weren't cheap, a picturesque view of Kraken's calm night sky come into view, contrasting with the raging battle down below.

"Go! Go! Go!"

The major shouted over the coms urging the cadets to jump in two's, one after the other, diving through the night sky, their eyes radiant with a neon green hue, exsentuating their night vision goggles, at their level they weren't yet able to see clearly in the dark, with the help of the force armour's inbuilt jets they accelerated, shortening their airtime.

As they came in a certain proximity to land their armour alerts them,

*beep

They slow down by turn off their jets and increase their area of contact by opening their hands and legs, similar to the starfish of the old home,

*beep

Upon the second beep the squad captains, Yulius and Nyx who were sentinel type transendents, quickly used their pyrokinesis, engulfing themselves in flames, creating an opposing force to the gravitional acceleration and landing with a burst of flames, drawing attention to themselves. Their mission was to fight on the frontline, and to delay the deterioration of the line of defense until Squad Nathan, of which David was apart of will returned with the weapon resource.

David,who was a physical type landed with his squad in a nearby forest area, away from the clearing of the battlefield, they were all physical types and their mission was to retrieve a package containing weapon resources that were airdropped earlier, but were compromised.

Once on the ground they quickly and quietly regrouped, they had to call as little attention to themselves as possible, and time was of the essence, the punctual retrieval of the resources would determine wether the colony's inhabitants, would have to retreat off planet or persist to pay respects to those who died to secure the colony base.

"Stay on alert and ready for contact, the package is confirmed to be in possession of the trelfs"

The four man squad tactically and stealthily navigate the forest, unhindered by their bulky force armour which despite it's size and mass was but a gentle beast, allowing the squad to gracefully cruise through the dark and obstacle filled forest.

It wasn't long until they reach the crush site, but what they saw was undesirable, the package was no longer in the designated area.

"Quickly spread out and search, remember be in alert!"

"YES SIR"

They spread out and a moment later they here over the coms,

"Contact! Contact!"

"I am under attack by three, possibly four Trelfs, I require assistance"

Everyone was immediately on high alert, they had been careless, thinking that the package was no longer there, they assumed there was no longer a Trelfen threat, they were wrong.

David was the first to arrive on site, Bethany was behind cover, occasionally coming out the return fire, but the Trelfs were closing in, fortunately David appeared from behind the Trelf, he quickly decides to silently eliminate them, he materialises his force sword and silently approach, the sound of gunfire drowning the sound of his steps, upon reach proximity lunges at the Trelf, his speed considerable, in a matter of seconds he was upon the Trelfs, but the Trelfs without showing a hint of surprise change their target, they were now pointing their guns at David.

Unlike the Telfs, David was taken by surprise, still he doesn't hesitate and even speeds up, his kinetic energy shield activates and blocks the incoming energy beams, but the Trelfs didn't have the same privilege, falling one after the other under the pincer attack. In no time they were dealt with.

"Bethany are you okay!?"

"I am uninjured, but you might end up injured if you don't keep on you helmet"

"A thank you would be appreciated, and there are no more...."

David didn't finish the sentence when Bethany shout's,

"Watch out!!!"
