Squadron assembled

Trojans and droid's

Three sisters their target

Null to void

Atmosphere entered

Red to grey glow

As we near earth's terrain

Red rivers flow

Cities on fire

Civilisation of pyres

No daylight sensed

Extinguished, by these darkened pariahs

The droid's report back

These sisters three

In New York spotted

Near the Statue of Liberty

The decision is made

To take them out

To salvage the earth

Return to the devout

Kestrel fighters

With missiles primed

Head to the target

Mission define

On contact of hit

The heads explode

Filled with the souls

Of past earth's abode

It has to take

The souls of the free

To rid these pariahs

For all eternity

In formation swoop

Waves of three

Triangular pincer

Missiles release

The first to fall

Kristy Krull

Two direct hits

This devout cull

Ale-era the Apocalypse

From the freedom torch falls

All three strike home

Liberty Island calls

Illyanna

The darkened leader

Whom the sisters follow

Pariah feeder

In Central Park

Her power failing

Kestrels strike

The darkened flailing

The last entity

In blackened spew

Illyanna

Downed by the souls so true

It took many many years

For the deathly red to fade

For the earth to return

To it's previous glade

From the Jungles of Jupiter

A cry was heard

Mother earth is dying

Devout is our word
