Space is an expansive void filled with stars, planets, moons, and suns within galaxies or systems. One particular system is home to humanity, unified under a banner of democracy. However, the humans there must defend their way of life from existential threats, marking the start of the Second Galactic War. The Federation of Super Earth is a massive interstellar government that values freedom, liberty, prosperity, and democracy. Currently, it is at war against the Mechanized: a union of Automatons and Dissembly Drones seeking to destroy the Federation, and the Covenant: an alliance of alien species who sees the human race as heretics and an upfront to their god. 

Federation would send out its bravest and elite Spartans and Helldivers to beat back the bots and aliens. It would make sure that its universe is safe and is embraced with democracy. Soon the SESC is sent out to liberate a special planet called Etheria.

Etheria's Orbit

A/N: Just imagine it like this but replace several of the Super Destroyers with SESC Dreadnoughts, Frigates, Starships, and Carriers.

Far from the orbit of Etheria, six large dreadnoughts, 10 super destroyers, 4 carriers, 10 starships, and 8 frigate crafts appeared after utilizing the FTL (faster than light) drive installed in their ships' rocket capacity. One of the six dreadnoughts is the famous SES Liberty's Vanguard, which serves as the HQ for Spartan Master Chief, Spartan Ethan, Helldiver Raelynn, and Dr. Vincent. As a few more ships arrive, the soldiers prepare for their first mission on Etheria.

SES Liberty's Vanguard

Inside the Vanguard, the ship is filled to the brim with Spartans, scientists, technicians, Marines, and Helldivers preparing cargo, ammunition, and, of course, weaponry. In the science department, the scientist Dr. Vincent is currently testing out his newest weapon, the Tesla-Rifle V2. 

Vincent: Alright, I need to add the volt rifle extensions and the electromagnetic coils, and then it should be done!

As he attempted to attach the extension to the rifle, the sliding door automatically opened, revealing Joseph and surprising Vincent.

Vincent: AHHH, Jesus Christ!!!

Joseph: Hey Vincent! I have to tell you this- WOAH!

Joseph almost missed a shot when the tesla rifle fired, startling Vincent, who fell off his chair and accidentally activated the rifle.

Joseph: Jeez Vincent... You gotta be careful with your gadgets and weaponry.

Vincent got up from the floor and dusted off his lab coat.

Vincent: Uh huh... So what brings you here Joseph?

Joseph: You didn't hear from the SESC Service Announcement? Man, are you behind.

Vincent: What about the Service Announcement?

Joseph grabbed the remote from Vincent's desk, pointed at the TV, and activated it to show a service announcement coming from the Super Earth Star Command.

Joseph: Now watch this Vincent.

TV: Attention all personnel of the SESC please turn your attention to this service announcement by the Super Earth Star Command, Captain Keyes.

On the screen, a man with black skin wearing a SESC captain's uniform was shown while being recorded on the brig.

Keyes: Hello everyone at the SESC, this is Captain Keyes speaking. Today we are in orbit over the alternate planet known as Earth. According to the Ministry of Intelligence, this world is currently in conflict.
