The USS Excalibur orbits around Star-Base 12 on April 30, 2159, the families that left Europe on April 29, 2153 finally reach their destination four and half years later one day before that Fateful May 1, 2153, that changed many lives forever.
The shuttlecraft touches down on Star-Base 12, on the north side of Star-Base 12, and the first one to walk out is Lord Patrick William Howard with his wife, Lady Margaret Penelope and her brother, Lord Richard and his wife, Lady Ann Hastings, and the other families follow him.
A representative from Star-Fleet Command and The United Federation of Planets is there to greet the new arrivals to Star-Base 12 and standing nearby is Phillip Williams and his wife, Phyllis and three other American couples, Thomas and Linda Weston, and Robert and Louisa Wilson.
Phillip Williams and his wife, Phyllis walk to where the new arrivals are standing and Phillip offers his hand to Lord Patrick William Howard and Lord Patrick William holds out his hand and Phillip William says to the new arrivals, "Welcome To Star-Base 12. We heard of your arrival."
Lord Patrick William Howard and his entourage are amazed to see their American counterparts and the representative of Star-Fleet Command explains, " These were the first settlers on Star-Base 12 from The United States before May 1, 2153. They lived in a divided country torn between Pro-War and Anti-War demonstrators. They arrived here on February 1, 2153, three months before World War Three broke out on May 1, 2153."
"These nice young couples have agreed to extend their hospitality to everyone." The commissioner of Star-Fleet Command tells Lord Patrick William Howard.
Phillip Williams tells Lord Patrick William " My wife and I can extend board and food to 10 families and my friend, Robert and Linda Weston can give the remaining families board and food."
Lord Patrick William Howard, Lord Richard Devereux, Lord John Carey, and their wives go to stay with the Williams and the other five couples go to live with Robert and Linda Weston.
As they walk toward William's manor, Phillip tells his guests "My wife and I left Planet Earth in 2147 due to political arrest in the United States."
"While we were growing up there were a lot of demonstrations between Pro-War demonstrators and the Anti-War Demonstrators." Phillip explains.
Lord Patrick William tells Phillip Williams " We left on April 30, 2153, and we had no idea that the next day that World War Three would break out, but it came like a thief in the night when everyone was asleep and we heard that over sixty millions were lost during the first nuclear weapon."
"When we asked for a list of the fatalities from the International Red Cross. We were told they were still gathering up the numbers." Lord Patrick William tells him.
"We heard about the outbreak of World War Three from The United Federation of Planets and Star-Fleet Command." Phillip tells Lord Patrick.
"We too asked for a list from the International Red Cross, but we were told that list was not completed" Phillip admits.
"I did hear some news that Colonel Philip Green was killed by Flint the Immortal over his Montana headquarters by the Ebola Virus and it killed his followers and him instantly." Phillip tells him.
"I have a list of the cities that were destroyed." Philip tells Lord Patrick William and he hands him the list of cities that were destroyed
Washington, D.C., London, Moscow, Berlin, New York City, Boston, Dallas, Mexico City, Paris, Rio de Janeiro, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Mecca, Riyadh, Samarkand, Karachi, Singapore, and New Delhi, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Ho Chi Minh City. Denver, Madrid, Rome, and Istanbul.
Lord Patrick William looks at the list of cities and London, Paris, Madrid, and Rome were three of the cities that were destroyed instantly with over a half million people dead instantly.
Lord Patrick William and his entourage knows that none of their family survived and he asks "May I keep this list."
"Yes of course, I have another copy." Phillip tells him " Once you get settled. Your friends and you may want to arrange a memorial service for your families."
"My friends and I have already done so." Phillip explains and with that they finally arrive at Phillip estate and he tells them " Consider this your home until you build your homes."
Philip Williams and Robert Weston and their wives build lasting friendships with the new arrivals on Star Base 12 and until they move out into their new homes in 2163 and lasting friendship is established between Lord Patrick William Howard and his friends between Phillip and Phyllis Williams and Robert and Linda Weston and the rest of the Americans on Star Base 12.
Lord Patrick William names his first son in honor of Phillip by giving his firstborn son his middle name Frederick and Lord John Carey does the same by giving his first born son his first name of Phillip Carey. Both were born in 2165 followed by Lady Jeanette Virginia Beaufort and Lady Anne Devereux in 2167.
