Colossus By Design: Entry 0093 - All Hands On Deck

[January 2, 2146]
[South West National Park, former Tasmanian island]

[Crowd of park rangers and visitors are gathered in front of the crater containing the Epsilon]


(Park Ranger 1): We gotta call this in to the G.U.D.!

(Park Ranger 2): Agreed. First, we'll dismiss all the visitors and send them back home. And then--


[The Epsilon begins to glow a faint yellow colour, and everyone present suddenly stops what they're doing]
[Everyone begins to destroy any and all technology on them with communicative properties]


(Park Ranger 3): That's better.

(Park Ranger 2): Yes. Everything is under control.

(Park Ranger 1): Indeed. Under control.

(Everyone): Everything is under control. Indeed. Under control.

[G.U.D. scout fleet is on patrol]
[Union's Warrior is on-board the flagship carrier]


(Karen Marais): Fleet, do you have anything on the scanners?

(Captain): No ma'am, I-- Hold on, we got something!

(Karen Marais): Where?

(Captain): Directly to the west and coming fast!


[Union's Warrior turns towards the west and looks up]
[High above in the skies, a small group of Betas flies overhead and is heading east]


(Karen Marais): Fleet, warn the other patrols. Let them know of the Betas on the move.

(Captain): Aye aye, ma'am.

[Pacific Ocean]
[G.U.D. scout fleet is on patrol, as well as Royal Commando in the water alongside it]


(Admiral): Commando, we got a bogey incoming from the east.

(Arthur Roy): Location?

(Admiral): Should be overhead..... now!


[Royal Commando switches his visor to long distance targeting and spots the Delta flying overhead]


(Admiral): How shall we approach, sir?

(Arthur Roy): Inform all other patrols, as well as the other Warmongers. This thing is clearly looking for something.

[G.U.D. Refitting Station]

[Honda-class supercarrier 'Nightfury' and Freedom of Justice are both docked for refitting operations]
[Freedom of Justice is called up on comms]


(Karen Marais): [COMMS] Thomas, Betas have been spotted heading southeast.

(Arthur Roy): [COMMS] Thomas, the Delta has been spotted heading southwest.

(Thomas Scott): Alright, maintain eyes and ears and contact Feng and Sasha. I want us all ready to converge on that location.

(Arthur and Karen): [COMMS] Yes sir.

(Comm Tower): [COMMS] Sir, possible bogey detected heading for this station!

(Thomas Scott): Where?

(Comm Tower): [COMMS] Just off the dock where the Nightfury's being refitted!

(Thomas Scott): Understood.


[Freedom of Justice rushes across the station to the view of the sea from the Nightfury's dock]
[Freedom of Justice sees a large fleshy mass picking up speed in the water and heading straight for the Nightfury]
