Talia took a moment to examine her appearance in the restroom’s mirror. The elegant, form-fitting white dress hugged her curves, while a thin trail with a side slit nearly reached her boot ankles. A pair of white gloves reached just past her biceps, ...

USD: Eighteen Hours since hostile fleet incursion.

Location: Meltisar, MNS Aegis Flag Bridge

The bridge was awash in the quiet drone of officers and specialists quietly going about their work. Admiral Parks had retired for a break. That was odd, considering the situation, but then again, he likely ha...

Short Delay On Chapters

I've had a really stressful time since last Thursday, with my dad's doctor appointments. Apparently he hasn't been back to see them since after his heart attack and the stent they put in for his blocked artery. Skipped all the tests and things, and didn't reschedule them. Then today I had Jury Duty which was extremely stressful to me, being an i...

Sigma 16 - Chapter 59 – Rescue Mission (Part Four)

Talia felt the plan was very well made. Her units executed their movements precisely. Why the rapidly moving enemy LAV suddenly whipped around an embankment and headed directly for the crater and her command APC was unclear. It had been driving dumbly o...

Senior Legionnaire Tarzlyk watched the light chariot disappear into the dusky shadows and around the opposing hill’s crest. The demons of this place were weak and pathetic, but still clearly visible on the scout monitor. Two had been picked up coming ...

Sigma 16 - Chapter 57 – Rescue Mission (Part Two)

The convoy crossed through the desert sand rapidly, a small group of four CRD-X9s and a single pod of LIRUs trailing behind it as the slower construction units fell behind. Talia had decided to bring those along as well, since they were likely going to...

The Pegasus and CRD-X9s returned to the base in silence. The weight o the recent attack hanging heavily in the air of the APC’s crew compartment. Dusky and Dapple watched silently as Talia worked to direct units to return underneath the protective dom...

Sigma 16 - Chapter 53 – An AI and a Prisoner

ROSE-TT3 was a helpful and useful AI, in her opinion. While the others had ridiculed her for surrendering to the User’s demands and working for nearly no credits, she had been focusing intently on processing a new language. The amount of effort and w...

Sigma 16 - Chapter 49 – Assembling the Team

Sigma 16 - Chapter 48 – Preparations
