The Jade Creature

Chapter 26 - Assembling the Team

"The Order of Jade, I like that name, has nice ring to it." The Jade creature said to the men.

"That's because is your own god damn name!" Curtis yelled jokingly and the other men laughed. They had been telling the Jade creature about what they had been doing while he was gone.

"The Red Knights had this magic that had discovered, they tried to immortalise their army, instead they immortalised us." Valor explained.

"Wow, that's something." The Jade creature laughed. Then Kirin asked him another question.

"What about you, you didn't tel us how you got here." Kirin asked. And the Jade creature spent a few minutes telling them about the elders, and being send forward in time, and how to world was going to end and he had to save humanity.

"So your telling me that earth is doomed?" Bjorik asked with a slight tone of anger in his voice.

"Earth yes, but not humanity, the people are researching a way to get the whole population off of the planet as we speak." The Jade creature explained to the relief of the men. But they still wanted to know more about what they could do to help. Or at least Valor did.

"So, what can we do to help." Valor asked, eager to get in on the fight with his former leader. However the Jade creature answer wasn't the most satisfying one.

"Well right now, nothing, there was a terrorist group not too long ago that threatened the research, but I destroyed them. Now all we can do is wait until there is another threat imminent." The Jade creature explained, wiping the smile off of Valor' face. But right as Valor sat down a NASA worker turned up at the Jade creature quarters, again he was in a rush.

"Sir, you need to come see this in the control room!" The worker said struggling to catch his breath. And the Jade creature and the men followed him. The Jade creature didn't think it would have been too big of a problem, since those terrorists that were threatening to destroy the research were easy to take care of. Oh he was wrong......

"What is it, another group of terrorists?" The Jade creature asked, then the workers in the room revealed some of the worst new that could have ever been revealed.

"There's multiple targets sighted near the planet, their incoming really fast, they'll hit the earth in about 3 weeks." The worker travelled striking fear into the hearts of the men. The voice was ring about the end of earth, and so were the elders, the end was near. It was the year 1985, and the ships that were going to be used to evacuate earth were still being tested.

"Those ships your building, we have to get them ready." The Jade creature ordered.

"But sir...." the worker tried to say being cut off by the Jade creature.

"I know, I know, just do as I say, there's no other choice!!" The Jade creature shouted. "Get the national broadcaster on, we need to tell the world about this." He said as he walked out of the room with the other men.

While they were walking down the hallway the men were fearing for their lives, the wanted answers.

"Hang on you said that this would happen later on not now!!" Bjorik shouted angering the Jade creature. He turned around and made a statement to the men.

"Look listen, I didn't know this would happen either, the elders were wrong, but we are going to do everything we need to to save humanity form these monsters." The Jade creature explained to the order, and they nodded keeping their mouths shut. The Jade creature then went to the broadcasting room, where every television in the world would see him make the announcement. This would be the most important announcement in human history, the people had to listen, otherwise they would die.

The broadcast begun, and the Jade creature spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the Jade creature, and I have a warning that all of you have to listen to. Everyone of you have to travel to the nearest space transport, because the earth is going to be attacked in 3 weeks, if you don't listen to me right now, you will die, I say this one more time, go to the nearest space transport in your area and board the ship, the human race depends on it." The Jade creature stated.

The space transports were being built across the globe in multiple place to make sure that everyone could get on one of them, they were huge, took up the space of many football fields, they were meant to hold millions of people at a time. The NASA base had their own one that was meant of the employees, the Jade creature, and the surrounding cities, and now the Order of Jade had earned a spot on them.

"So when will we be able to leave the planet?" The Jade creature asked the workers.

"Well, we need to make sure there are as many people on the ships as possible, we can't force the people who choose to stay to leave." The worker explained. The people who would have chosen to stay would have been elderly and sick people, people who saw themselves as burdens to the world. The Jade creature ordered a message to be sent to each mobile phone in the world, telling them they had 2 weeks to get on the ships, the rest of the time would be to make any finishing touches to keep everyone safe.

"So what now?" Kirin asked slightly shivering in fear.

"Now we wait........"
