Time: 30th of April
Location: Mulhouse
POV: Commander Edmund
Flak shot at the planes as we fly over Mulhouse, ''LISTEN UP MAGGOTS! OUR TARGET IS THE UNION'S HEAVY ARTILLERY PRODUCTION FACILITY AND RESEARCH LABS! STAY IN GROUPS! AFTER ACHIEVING OUR GOAL WE WILL ESCAPE THROUGH OUR COVERT OPERATION NETWORKS!'' I shouted at my men and over the radio,
''GO GO GO GO!'' I shouted while pushing the Ravens down, 'Operation Fury is finally a go!' I clenched my fists in agitation,'
I counted in my head while holding my Golden badge in my hands, ''FOR THE ORGANISATION!'' I jumped out of the plane whilst shouting.
It was hell, Flak pounding upon the air fleet, a sky covered in parachutes, paratroopers dying left and right...
I looked around me to see my men, before looking at my landing spot, '5000 Meters away from the Factory, we have 1 hour before reinforcements arrive... Challenge accepted.' I smirked.
After a short period of time, I finally landed on the ground.''This is Commander Edmund, my platoon head towards the southern entrance, we will meet up there.'' I ordered my men over the radio.
I checked to see if my MP 40 works before running towards the Entrance, making my way through the thick forest surrounding the factory took 10 minutes, including the time of the drop already 15 minutes have passed.
I grabbed my radio whilst running, contacting the artillery corps, ''I request 3 Shells on the Factory for suppression!'' I sadly hastily, ''Commander Edmund this is the Railway artillery corps as authorization has been given we will fire 3 HE shells upon the target, expect heavy damage...'' The Local commander reported.
Two massive railway artillery pieces rolled out of the mountain with a shell already loaded in each of them, ''LISTEN UP BOYS! WE HAVE 5 MINUTES TO FIRE AND RETREAT BEFORE THE ENEMY AIRFORCE WILL SWARM US!'' The commander shouted with his Radio still on before disconnecting.
I ran another minute before slamming against the outer fence where the platoon was waiting, ''GO GO GO!'' I shouted as we pushed our way through the hole in the fence the others already cut.
''ENEMIES SPOT....!'' A Unionist soldier shouted as he pointed from his watchtower, before his head exploded into a thousand pieces, ''THE TWO WITH EXPLOSIVES SPLIT OFF TO THE RIG...'' I tried to order the men when suddenly the entire earth shook around us and a piercing sound came from afar, massive piles of dirt were blown into the air, ''..IGHT!'' I finished before another explosion came from further away.
'Finally!' I exclaimed as the railway artillery shells did their work, the enemies were thrown into chaos as the shells impacted the Factory, ''HURRY!'' I shouted at the men before signalling the others to follow me into the research labs on the outskirts of the complex.
''ENEMY MACHINEGUN!'' A raven shouted before being mowed down by that very gun, ''fuck!'' I cursed under my breath as I looked into the distance, ''Smoke grenade!'' I ordered while leaping away from my cover.
The machinegunner quickly locked on but was soon thrown into disarray due to the smoke, we crawled under the smokescreen to the edges before firing upon the enemy gunner, ''Charge!'' I shouted while already running,
We reached the Labs with only 2 more casualties, making us only a 4 man squad from the original eight, with the two demolition experts heading over to the factory,
my men walk silently into the bunker which contained the labs, using hand signals they proceeded silently. I stayed outside to stand guard, only 15 minutes pass when I suddenly hear gunfire and desperate screaming, 'What in god's name is going on!' I cursed while running into the building...

Time: 1st of May
Location: Motherbase
POV: Mackensen's
''An utter disaster...'' I said while reading the report, ''Of the one thousand ravens send only 100 made it back through our cover operations, 900 died, no valuable intel was taken and only 2 out of 5 manufacturing buildings were destroyed, and that was only due to the railway fire!'' A general said analytically.
''Write operation down as a failure.'' I stood up and walked up to the window looking over the central transportation hub, the hairs of the generals stood straight as they heard what I said next, ''Classify this operation as SSS graded, send it to the black hands to deal with it and the Marshall, this is even out of my jurisdiction, only one higher power can know.
''Also start Mobilization of the 23rd Motorised Division towards Transmanmur, it is time to prepare for the old plan code named: Celestial Dragon which will try to replace the failure of Operation Dragon. '' I looked at the generals while sliding the report onto the table, ''1 Month, one moth to prepare.''
'These labs research something related to the Marshall, that we can be sure of by the reports of the 100 Ravens that escaped. I have had my suspicion that the marshall is not from this place but is at the same time. I must decide what path to take from here...' I organised my thoughts whilst walking ti the Convoy.
Will these discoveries make the Organisation split? Or even more, unified?
Time: 28th of April
Location: Delémont
POV: Rudolf's
''I am not even surprised this would happen...'' I shook my head as I looked at Kyle surrounded by bomb specialists.
An engineer handed me the analysis of the Mine, 'Spring release structure, large blast radius, anti-Infantry. Why Kyle, why you have to increase my workload...' I sighed deeply before walking towards the Marshall, ''Sir, it will take approximately 1 hour to 2 hours to disarm the mine, please inform the Marshall that he must endure until that time.'' The Chief engineer quickly asked me.
I walked up to Kyle with a frown, ''Marshall, It will take approximately 1 hour to 2 hours to disarm the mine, besides that, I have heard you have taken in a Civilian under special protection, do you want me to transfer him to mother base?'' I Checked the clipboard with the report of the Battle of Delémont,
''And I forgot to mention that operation fury has been given the go-ahead by the general staff to cripple Union production capacity,'' I said casually,
''Rudolf, don't forget to have the HMS Dreadnought go with the mission, it is of utmost importance that they get full support, this mission has more meaning to it than at first glance...'' Kyle replied seriously,
'Why mobilise our strategic assets so early? I will re-evaluate it before deciding, mobilising the HMS Dreadnought will make us take a huge hit at finances.' I didn't take the Marshall's words to heart.
If Kyle could hear Rudolf complain about money he would surely choke him, they have almost infinite amounts of it, and only to not have hyper-inflation he keeps it stashed away.
2 hours pass by quickly and the mine was disarmed, ''Marshall 2 transport planes are currently parked at the makeshift airfield, please follow me, we have urgent issues at Motherbase!'' I gave Kyle the report clip I have analysed beforehand to him.
He gave it a quick before handing it back to me, ''Rudolf, I trust you know how to deal with this.'' Kyle hat a cold glint in his eyes when he said it, causing me to shiver slightly.

POV: 3rd Imperial Senator
''SHUT DOWN THE BUILDING, ALL PERSONNEL EVACUATE THE IMPERIAL LIBRARY!'' 20 Generals shouted as they started to run up the stairs, ''ETA 5 MINUTES SIR!'' One of the younger generals reported to the oldest one taking the lead. We all have a pistol in hand, although most generals prefer close combat and thick armour. Now is sadly not the time for that due to time constraints
20 men donned in beautiful old military uniforms barged into my office, a man of seemingly high status, ''WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!'' I shouted towards the men, ''Under the 3rd act of the 5th Constitution, you have broken moral law by sending a native back in time! The very 1st moral law: Thou shall not send those with knowledge into their past like one would not send an anti-matter bomb ready to detonate into the past. For one who knows the future is invincible. As History has told us, those that have the knowledge shall use it without bounds. Your very act HAS ENDANGERED OUR NATION!'' The oldest general shouted at the man.
I stood up seemingly knowing this would happen, '' HOW DARE YOU ALL SAY THIS! The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home! YET. we, we have failed, riots, unrest, famine, OUR NATION IS CORRUPTED TO THE BONE! YET. yet no one dares to take action because of you all... swearing to protect this nation from threats both WITHIN AND WITHOUT! YET. you have done nothing, my hard work slips through my fingers like sand and dust, my efforts to heal this nation just vanishes into thin air. I can't stand it, I can't let these old giants, ruled by autocracy and fear continue to exist. Thus I have chosen a successor, he will be the one worthy to challenge the might of the old 3 empires, or if you are really knowledgeable: The Great 5...''
''YOU! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!'' The older general demanded, ''You can't do anything anyways, I have sent a native from the old empire back in time...'' I said smiling lightly. The faces of all the generals all turn ghastly white, ''...The old empire, please tell me it is not the empire of humanity?'' a general muttered, ''SHUT IT! HE IS LYING! After the utter collapse of the Old empire due to the Coalition, they... they died!'' The old general said anxiously, I smiled lightly, ''An empire based on their words: 'Democracy through force.' Where they believe that democracy must be adopted by every Nation in existence, the old Empire...'' I sighed as I put my pistol against my head, ''FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF THE PEOPLE THE OLD EMPIRE SHALL BE REVIVED!'' I pulled the trigger causing instant death, my last thought was what the world would look like when the old empire would rise again in its glory.
''QUICKLY GET HIM TO THE REVIVAL CENTRE!'' The old general shouted as he pointed at me, after which he quickly went to a private room, ''Emperor!'' The General saluted to the hologram, ''And?'' The emperor asked casually, ''Emperor, I can only say these words; 'Emperor Invicticus''' After which the general quickly ended the transmission afraid of it being intercepted.
