   Thousands of enemy aircraft bombed the city. Some had light blue paint with ice crystal insignias on them. On board the helicopter, Abigail's wound was already being stitched up. She had managed to stay conscious the entire time. Out the back window of the helicopter, she saw a horrible sight: the entire city was in flames, and troops from the horde marched through its streets. Some troops wore light blue uniforms with the same ice crystal as those that were on the jets. Once the helicopter landed, Rain and Abigail rushed to Aro's office. "Who the hell were those people with blue uniforms?" Abigail asked.
   "The Nether-Sovigonian Commonwealth," Aro responded.
"What the f**k is Sovigonia?" Rain blurted out.
"First of all, watch your mouth. Second, they're one of two countries that make up the continent of Atlas, Aroxia being the other one. They're a communist empire with a militaristic agenda. When someone commits a horrible crime here in Aroxia, they usually attempt to escape to Sovigonia to seek refuge from the Aroxian authorities afterwards." Suddenly, an alarm blared throughout the base. On the loudspeaker, a soldier spoke with nervousness in his voice.
   "Nether-Sovigonian forces are approaching the base. Prepare to defend against assault." Aro tossed two M60 machine guns to Rain and Abigail.
   "Let's go kill some anti capitalist scumbags." And with that, the trio ran outside and were immediately greeted by a Su-27 swooping down to attack. It was easily torn apart by a phalanx turret next to the runway. Troop transports started landing at the base entrance. Aro threw a purple and black object at one and it created a blackhole that ripped it apart before imploding itself. Abigail was killing dozens of pigmen and wither skeletons until something caught her eye. It was Scorch, her former comrade from the horde.
   "Scorch," she said to him, "it's been a while." Scorch laughed.
   "You were safer when you were still part of the horde. Now your fate stands before you," he drew his sword, made of molten lava in the shape of a scimitar. Abigail charged, only to get stabbed in the stomach. The pain was immense. She felt as if someone shoved a bucket of lava down her throat. "You have become foolish. Your demise is now." Tears began streaming down Abigail's face as she thought about all the memorable experiences she had. But then, she remembered the most important part of her life. Rain. She realized that if she died, she would be leaving behind her one true love. Her eyes glowed white and she began aggressively stabbing Scorch. Abigail eventually decapitated him. Rain had been watching the fight. The invasion had ended at about the same time Scorch was killed. He went over to Abigail and kissed her. On the balcony of his office, Aro stood, overlooking the battlefield.
   "The Nether-Sovigonian Commonwealth has enslaved, arrested, and slaughtered millions of our people. We will not allow them to plunge our glorious country into chaos any longer. At sunrise tomorrow morning, we will launch an offensive against Azeria and take it back. We will win this war and no one will discourage us."
