The United Nations invited all countries to the UN HQ in New York City to hold a conference with world leaders. They discussed the possible alien attack soon, and all countries agreed to support and protect each other. 

Meanwhile, in the Vatulian spaceships, the soldiers see Mars and Earth have artificial satellites meaning genius beings live on those planets. After confirming those things are satellites, they start their engines and exit Neptune's sphere of influence, then start heading towards Mars. The people of Mars detect the Vatulian ship exiting Neptune's orbit. Alerts are sent to Earth about the ship's rapid approach from Neptune.

Anti-air vehicles and soldiers are deployed all over Earth. Then, on planet Mars, the Russian Space Forces and the United States Space Force assembles in divisions to protect their bases. Timofey wakes Proxima up and tells him to evacuate. "Why are we evacuating?" asked Proxima, "Because they're coming here!" said General Timofey. Proxima instantly knew what he meant, and the both of them began to run to the exit. General Timofey quickly wears his cosmonaut suit and enters the depressurizing chamber with Proxima. General Timofey runs to the Martian Cruiser, and Proxima follows him. They entered the vehicle, and then General Timofey started the Martian Cruiser.

In one of the Vatulian transport ships, the military officers strategize on how to attack Mars and Earth. They plan to surround one planet at a time, and they invade at the same time. All the ships are currently passing by Jupiter and are entering the Asteroid Belt.

While Proxima and General  Timofey are still on their trip to the Martian South Pole base, the Russian Space Forces and the U.S Space Force have prepared their soldiers to fight against the Vatulians. Then, they patiently wait for them to come.

The Vatulian ships exit the Asteroid Belt, go towards planet Mars, and blast one of the satellites. Then, the remaining satellite falls through the atmosphere of Mars and burns up. The spaceships started to surround the planet partially, and then one of the satellites detected the spaceships and sent an alert to NASA. NASA received the warning from the satellite and sent the announcement to everyone explaining that the spaceships surrounded the planet.

Proxima and General Timofey received the announcement from NASA. Proxima began to panic, and General Timofey tried his best to calm him down, and then General Timofey drove faster so they could reach the base quickly. The Vatulian ships begin to decent and enter Mars' atmosphere, and then the soldiers see and open fires at them. The Vatulians have also opened fire and attacked the soldiers. Proxima and General Timofey hear the firing sounds and see a bunch of spaceships going inside the atmosphere, and then a space fighter follows them behind. Timofey noticed immediately, "Can you drive?" asked General Timofey while going to the back, "What? No," answered Proxima, "Well, you better learn now," said General  Timofey grabbing a rifle and opening the door. Proxima sat in the driver's seat and grabbed the steering wheel. He turned the steering wheel to the left a bit to start comprehending how to drive. General Timofey aims at the fighter and fires his gun, then the pilot shoots back and almost caught General Timofey. Proxima sees a cliff and stops the vehicle, and then the pilot is too focused on General Timofey, and then they finally realize there's a cliff in front of them. The pilot lifted the spaceship to raise his altitude, but it was too late. The bottom part of the fighter got hit by the ground.

Then, the fighter crashes on the hill. Proxima and General Timofey get out of the vehicle and go to the spaceship that crashed, they approach from the back, and then Proxima opens the backdoor. They enter the fighter and see a pilot seat in front of the spaceship. They approach it and see a yellow protogen with its visor completely black, and then Proxima is shocked to see it as he doesn't remember seeing another protogen before. "There's more of you?" asked General  Timofey, surprised, "I don't remember I'd have more of my type," says Proxima. "Should we bring with us?" asked General Timofey again, "Yes, please," answered Proxima. Both drag the yellow protogen and put it in the Martian Cruiser. And then, they continued their journey to the Martian South Pole Base.
