An Executor's Will (RWBY x Starcraft)

Episode 23: Saving Tassadar

We planned our next move. We found Tassadar's location and it seems he was contained on a Stasis Cell. In other words, a prison.

We landed on a clear site and prepared our warriors for the next battle. We are outnumbered but we need to save Tassadar if we are to achieve our own goals.

Raynor came up with a battle plan and we marched to put them into action.

Truth be told, I still can't understand why Aldaris still believes their beliefs still matter when their Homeplanet is already suffering from the Zerg.

"I'll stay behind with our troops to prepare our escape once we've saved Tassadar. En Taro Adun, Fenix." Says Artanis.

Fenix nodded and started walking away.

I checked my gears and stood up. "Understood Artanis. Wish us luck."

The ones in command of the whole attack will be Raynor. Lupin and I will accompany Fenix on the battlefield as we save Tassadar. We need to push through with brute force this time while they're still recovering their forces.

We're currently riding on a shuttle together with Fenix. We have several Carriers with us so, we took the enemy by surprise.

In the first 3 days, we laid waste to their first line of defense as we push forward. I gotta say, these Carriers are powerful enough to destroy an entire base because of their numbers.

I can only imagine what will happen if we have this kind of firepower to use against the Grimms back in Remnant. I'm pretty sure Atlas will be feared throughout the continent if they can invent weapons like these.

Day 7

We managed to push our way through and destroyed their 2nd line of defense. It was a sight to see since they were helpless against our Fleet. But that doesn't mean I enjoy seeing them being slaughtered.

So before we started our attack, I told Fenix to focus on their buildings so that they will have no way to retaliate against us. That way, it will lessen the casualties of the Protoss Forces.

The defenses surrounding the Stasis Cell is heavily defended as one would expect. We landed on the ground and started our attack after the Carriers destroyed most of their Photon Cannons. We lost some of them during the fight but it's a sacrifice we're willing to make.

We fought and killed enemies on our way. Zeratul and the Dark Templar's absence made this battle slightly harder but it's still manageable.

The moment we cleared the area, we destroyed the Stasis Cell and freed Tassadar from his prison. Raynor heaved a sigh of relief as soon as the news got to him that Tassadar is safe.

But as soon as we destroyed the Cell, our forces were now surrounded by a new wave of Protoss Warriors from the sudden appearance of several portals behind us.

"Tsk! Aldaris huh? I should've known." Says Lupin.

"...a trap huh?" I muttered.

They had us completely surrounded from all sides. We covered Tassadar with our forces to protect him. We were weary from the long constant battle and their timing couldn't be worse.

Aldaris came out in front and stood in a distance away from us.

"I expected you to attempt to retrieve your hero. You will learn that the will of the Conclave is absolute. Make peace with Adun."

Their warriors slowly approached us. We were greatly outnumbered since our assault was a straightforward one. We lost a lot of our ground warriors and our Carriers were all badly damaged from the final assault to their last line of defense.
