The Eagle's Rise From The Ashes

Reinforcements

On board General Kain's command ship, in route to Copper-9

"What the Hell have you mercs been doing? sitting on your asses?, I hired you all to do a job, and you are not doing it, I know that your little commander arrived at Copper nine at least a month and a half ago, in the time it took him to arrive two more teams of our dissesembly drones went offline, and in the two months that your little commander has been on Copper nine an additional five teams have gone offline, so I want to know what the problem is," said the JcJenson CEO angrily. "Before I anwser that I myself have a question, is there some armory or weapons stash you forgot to tell us about? maybe filled with military grade weapons capable of taking down a transport alongside its escort of Migs?" asked general Kain. "What, no, of course not, I told you already, the most they have is small arms and mining dynamite, nothing else," said the CEO. "Okay, well with that anwser that leaves three possibilities, A: your lying to me and my Boss's face and the worker drones got into a armory with military grade weapons, B: your telling the truth and the people on Copper nine were smuggiling military weapons onto the planet, or C: they developed their own weapons and equipment, because heres the thing mister "CEO", we lost two bases and a transport within the first week, Alpha base wasn't blown up by some mining explosives, from what our anaylists say, Alpha base was leveled by missiles and fuel air bombs, Bravo base was destroyed from the transport ship being taken down where it would destroy all of Bravo base, and the transport was at such a altitude that only aircraft of some kind could of attack it, or a really long range anti air missiles, and just recently over one thousand of my men were killed by these worker drones with military weapons, heres the list, 50.cal, 5.56, rockets of some kind, and some unkown weapon that seems to burn soldiers alive, so yeah, im very pissed because I feal like me and my boss were misinformed about this job and that we were unprepared for this, you better pay us more for this blunder, because were taking heavy losses because of it," said general Kain. "I, what? you mean to tell me, that these workers have military equipment, how did they get it?, no matter though your the Steel Talons, supposedly the best mercs out there, you can handle some workers with high quality guns now can you, you just need your armor and air support, so yeah, finish the job or your not getting paid," said the CEO as he cut the comms. "Bastard, telling us only basic small arms and mining and improvised explosives, we they very well have full on military equipment, ugh I need another drink, this is just too stressful, this has to be my most difficult assignment yet, and im not even there yet, ughh," said general Kain as he grabbed a bottle of champagne and drank straight from the bottle.

5 days later aboard the commander's command ship

"sir, the main force will arrive in two minutes," said the scanning officer. "thank you, its honestly about damn time they arrived, our forces just aren't enough," said the commander, who was to say the least, beyond exhausted, since the US has been mercilessly fighting his forces. "Friendly fleet entering the system," said the scanning officer. "thank you again, comms, open communications with them, im overdue for a report anyways," said the commander. "Commander... oh wow you like absolute shit, what the hell happened since we last spoke?" asked general Kain. "A lot has happened in the past three days, I have had no sleep, and these worker drones have been bombing the hell out of any base of significance, airfields, motor pools, etc, and any offensive ops I attempt get ambushed and anilated, its almost as if they know my every move, plus it seems as though they have steath bombers, because all of those bases that have been destroyed in the past three days have one tging in common, they were all carpet bombed by hundreds of 150lb bombs, I just don't know what to do!" said the commander. "Okay umm, go get some sleep, I will take over, after all, this is techinically my assignment," said general Kain. 'well shit, this is going to be tougher than I thought,' thought Kain.

Meanwhile in the US HQ

"General Sir, all but one of the Dissesembly drones have defected to our side, and the Steel Talons main force has arrived, there are at least sixty air cruisers, and around fifty additional transports, alongside some frigates and cruisers for orbital support," reported an officer. "thank you officer, your dismissed," said General Thunderstorm. 'seems as though I need to bring the full might of the storm to convince them that this is a losing fight for them,' thought General Thunderstorm. 

3 hours later in an undisclosed area above ruins of a city

"hey captain, do you think the worker drones really have stealth bombers?" asked crewman aboard an air cruiser. "Pfft, as if, those are hard to make, they probaly just snuck in and planted explosives in the base and trigered them," said the air cruiser captain. "yeah but that means they are very stealthy to be able to sneak into a base and plant bombs in such key areas while they were on high alert," said the crewman. "Uh..., no you actually have a point there, either way that means they can hit us hard when we least expect them too," said the captain. DONK. "what was that?!" shouted the starteled captain. "umm, I don't know sir.... oh shit!, hull breaches on decks one and two, no wait hull breaches on every deck!, engines are taking damage! we've lost engine one!, engine two has gone offline!, switch to emergency thrusters!, Emergency thrusters have just been destroyed! were going down!" screamed the different crew members. 

A smiled as the flight of three air cruisers fell out of the sky, courtesy of him and 30 other commandoes and even Colonel Burton, "hmm, I am starting to like this new body more and more," said Colonel Burton. Then all of the commandoes started laughing evily, 'oh this will be fun,' thought all of them.

In the primary US medical base on copper-9

"Okay Uzi, I have run another scan now that the nanites have made more progress, it seems that they are trying to dismantle your oil synth for parts, and they are starting to change your CPU, don't worry, I have manage with the help of a couple of techs managed to encrypt your mind, so you won't need to worry about the nanites reprograming you, however you are going to have to start drinking oil to keep yourself from overheating, and sudden extreme mood swings are more likely to occur now that the nanites are changing your CPU, I have never dealth with this before so I don't know how extreme the mood swings will be, or of what kind of mood swings you will have, after all your very CPU is being changed so I have no clue what might happen, so have me on speed dial incase if you feel something majorly wrong, and stay close to N, just incase if you become extremely pissed and violent," said the doctor. "umm, okay, thats a bit disconcerning, but, thank you for informing me," said Uzi as she began walking out. 'hmm, this is completely new to me, so I wonder what kind of mood swings she will have, after all her CPU is being completely changed, so...no, no, don't let your mind go there, there are only 3 cases of those kind of mood swings, all of them being a mix of a reaction to healing nanites and alcohol, but then again...., damn JcJenson for being a bunch of sickos, and making some of the upgrades when they came out with the MK3 worker require those features in order to work, hopefully Uzi doesn't have those kind of mood swings or N may be in for a rough, or a fun time, or both, depending on how he reacts to it, if it happens, but its so improbible for it to happen, right?' thought the doctor to himself.
