Unexpected Outcomes

"What is Clovis thinking!!! Is he really that big of an idiot? He's left himself alone in the place with no one around. He even sent the 7th generation Camelot Knightmare meant to be backup away. When are we going to reach the place?"

"It will take a quarter-hour more. Clovis must have planned this. With the news coming to us late and all the military transport being busy. I must say he might just be a part of the royal family. This performance was making me doubt it." Leylin spoke

"Who do you think the enemy commander is? They seem to be above average at least, give me your evaluation."

"They're smart and have information on Britannian positions obviously. That or they have aerial surveillance which is improbable and not as efficient. They also obtained enemy Knightmares, this leads me to believe Clovis had a leak, or maybe someone was careless. Whoever it was they just gave a Britannian Knightmare to the enemy. That allowed them to gain all the information. It's the most probable way of course they might have hacked into the mainframe but they could do so much more if they could hack into the mainframe. No, I think they just got one of our Knightmares."

"And what of their tactics?"

"Well they have quite a good understanding of Clovis, I would wager a guess. After all, they have successfully riled him up and left him without any guards. Next, they would probably send a small force towards Clovis, probably to capture him and make their demands."

"We have to get there now then!! What are you thinking going so slow!"

"We can't do anything now, Clovis made sure we won't be able to reach him and he gave all his reinforcements to the enemy. Plus it's just us two, for now, we don't even have our Knightmares with us. I've ordered them to be kitted and ready when we get there however I suspect it will be too late."

"You suspected this and didn't tell me?"

"No, no princess, I only figured this out as the enemy made their moves. I did not expect the opponent to have such a good commander. I know every terrorist in that area and none of them showed the capability to do what is happening. No, I suspect this is a new player. Oh my, he seems to have reached Clovis."

"Attention all forces. Ceasefire at once. I Clovis, third prince of Britannia and royal viceroy of Area Eleven, hereby command you, all forces are ordered to cease fire at once. You also cease the destruction of any buildings or property. All casualties, whether Britannian or Eleven, shall be treated equally and without prejudice. In the name of Clovis la Britannia, you are hereby ordered, cease fire at once. I shall allow no further fighting." came Clovis' voice through the TV in the car.

"What is he thinking, he just started this and now he's ending it like that? Does he think he will be a messiah or something?"

"No, he's been blackmailed. He wouldn't do that otherwise. The terrorists got to him, and now probably have a gun to his head. What's intriguing is that we got no notification of this happening. Let me try to contact G1."

"Damnit, how could this happen so fast, what's the news from G1?."

"They aren't answering, I've asked the people outside to check, we should know soon."

"Good, Leylin what do you know about this group, if you have no clue about the leader what about the others?"

"I know of the identities of most of them, don't worry I doubt they would be able to stay safe once this is over. Their leader from my memory was someone named Kaname Ohgi, a school teacher, before the invasion, who turned to terrorism after the school closed. The group has no history of anything before this except for their previous leader being caught by Clovis and being killed. It seems he found out about the project and told his cell."

"Damnit, also investigate who could have given the information in the Knightmares to the elevens…" suddenly the phone began to ring. Leylin picked it up and answered.

"Are you sure, did you check the pulse? Take him to the medical wing immediately."

"What is it?"

"You might want to sit down for this princess, I seem to have guessed wrong. Prince Clovis was shot, he bled to death before help came."

"What of the G1, how could anyone get in without anyone knowing?"

"It seems they entered through the back entrance, one would need the compliance of an intimate aid for that. I doubt that aid is alive anymore though. All the files have been deleted as well."

"Godamn it why would they do that. I never liked Clovis but he was my brother and he died while I was close. Damnit Leylin, I want you to make sure to find this Ohgi person and get all the information out of him. I want each and every one of them caught."

"Yes, your majesty!" Leylin said knowing how serious the situation just got.
