Chapter 5: From America

As the week came to a close, snow began to fall over the United States. Commander Perry and the other members of Congress were waiting for the New Ottawans to arrive. 

About five minutes had passed and the New Ottawan Convoy had arrived. Within the harbor of the Port of Baltimore, the United States had delivered the listed vehicles that Juno and Kenji had demanded. The Japanese Navy was awaiting them within the harbor as well. They were there to escort the New Ottawans to their new home. 

As the Ghost dismounted the transport he was on, Commander Perry walked up to him.

Everything you had in the list of demands is about the dozen or so aircraft carriers. The Fleet of naval vessels has also been made ready to leave with you as well. You truly never changed did you?

Commander Perry, I have in fact changed. I am defending those I can depend on. You and your older brother used to be apart of that. You both will always have a place within New Ottawa should you ever need it. However, I hate to cut our goodbye short, but I have people to get safely across the world. 

The Ghost walked past Commander Perry and met up with everyone.

Get all of our supplies loaded. The aircraft we have are already landing aboard the carriers. This isn't simply about cutting out the corruption of the United States, but also securing our place in this world for the long haul. 

With a nod, the New Ottawans raced to their ships. As they got to their posts the Ghost of Ottawa stood on the deck of the Nevada.

Congress of the United States. Please understand, this is directly linked to your inadequate leadership and incompetent ability to stop the New World Order. We fought and died for this nation and yet you brought this upon yourselves. I, the Ghost of Ottawa, hereby revoke the citizenship of these gathered here upon these vessels and those in the sky. Consider us not your enemy nor your friends. However, any attack on us will result in the destruction of your nation as a whole. 

As the wind rushed passed the group, the Ghost's expression was cold and commanding. Senator Blackwell gritted his teeth, knowing they had just lost everything to a faction far smaller than their country as a whole, but far more powerful. 

All ships, engines ahead full. Onwards to Destiny.

As the Ghost returned to bridge, all of the New Ottawan Fleet departed from Baltimore, breaking out into the open ocean with their Japanese escort vessels. 

They pushed onwards for days. The Ghost hardly slept as he monitored the state of the fleet as they pushed for Destiny Island. Everyone was uneasy, this decision wasn't easy, it had them cutting ties with their parent nation and everything they'd ever known. However, the Ghost took a deep breath and stared out the bridge windows as he steeled his resolve. This was their new beginning, their new chapter in the grand stories of the lives. 

Meanwhile, the Overlord was checking over the various murals and historical artifacts of Ottawa when the radio broke the silence.

US NAVAL VESSELS ON DIRECT INTERCEPT COURSE! MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS!

The Overlord rushed to the deck to see the USS Nevada, now named OS Ottawan Resolve opening fire a barrage of shells as US Destroyers moved into attack positions. 

DON'T JUST WATCH! ALL TURRETS OPEN FIRE! GET THE JAPANESE NAVY ON THE HORN!

Cassie radioed their situation over to the Japanese Navy, but the Ghost had another plan up his sleeve. He knew that the United States wouldn't simply just let them leave peacefully, however, he'd had Juno and the Science Division working on a top secret project. As the Overlord looked at the bow of the Ottawan Resolve, saw a pitch-black suit of armor roar into the skie headed straight of the United States Destroyers. 

Juno, this is SR-72PA. I am on defensive intercept. Let's see how the US performs under pressure.

The Science Division had delivered the Ghost of Ottawa the most powerful suit of armor. They had cracked the code of the SR-71 Blackbird and had made it an wearable powered armor. The main gatling cannon was far more powerful that the GAU-8 Avenger of the A-10 Warthog. The SR-72PA was capable of mach 7.8 and was still in its prototype testing phase. 

As the Ghost opened fire, one of the destroyer's bridges exploding into flames. The barrels of the gatling cannon were glowing orange as the Ghost landed on the US's aircraft carrier. He ripped F-22's and F-18's into flakes of steel. A lone pilot hopped into an A-10 Warthog where it became a battle of durability. Both gating cannons were glowing orange as both pilots pushed their limits. However, thanks to Juno's genius, the SR-72PA was far superior to the flying tank. The warthog erupted into pieces and a large fireball. The red, glowing eye lenses of the SR-72PA were the last thing most of the US sailors saw as their ships sank. 

CONCENTRATE FIRE ON THE DAMAGED DESTROYERS! NOTHING BREAKS THROUGH OUR RANKS! THE GHOST BOUGHT US TIME! NOW RETURN THAT FAVOR!

As the battle ensued, New Ottawan ships had been bought valuable time to allow the Japanese to take over as transport guardians while the New Ottawan ships readied to attack. Waves of fire left the barrels of New Ottawan ship-mounted turrets and punched holes into the US Destroyers. 

In the skies, the Ghost was reeking havoc on the US air support. He torn the wings off of F-22's just by flying too close to them. Combat communications were chaotic as the New Ottawans defended themselves from United States. The Ghost knew the tide of this battle had to change soon, and he saw his opportunity. He dropped from the sky and opened fire his gatling cannon at the US Flagship. It was was an Arleigh Burke class destroyer outside of the battle. The cannon ripped holes into the ship as the Ghost kept buzzing it over and over again. He'd gotten the attention of the rest of US fleet as he outran a dozen missiles fired at him as he punched his boosters into full throttle. He spun around and was heading straight for the flagship still being followed by the missiles. It all happened so fast, the Ghost dipped behind the flagship as the twelve missile locked onto the destroyer and blew the ship in half. 

NEW OTTAWANS! THEIR FLAGSHIP IS DOWN! REGROUP WITH THE JAPANESE NAVY! radioed the Ghost as he set down on the OS Ottawan Resolve.

As the New Ottawan's regrouped, they had several damaged ships, but nothing that would call for abandonment. However, the US Fleet had suffered total defeat. 

Senator Blackwell, it was a turkey-shoot. We lost over seventy-five percent of our fleet. The deployed a new suit. It outrank Raptors and missiles as if they were standing still. 

This... YOU TOLD ME YOU COULDN'T LOSE!

Sir, we underestimated them, big time sir. 

Limp your sorry asses back home. We'll talk more about it when you arrive. 

Sir, I-I'm not sure we'll get that chance. 

The Captain dropped the radio as the SR-72PA was hovering above him. 

Give Senator Blackwell a message for me. If he EVER decides to come after my family again, I'll do more than sheer wings off of F-22's. I will crush his skull with my hand. Am I clear?

Y-yes, h-he heard you. 

The Ghost broke mach 7 as he left the area. Senator Blackwell turned off his radio as he stood up.

Truly, we have awakened the Angel of Death amongst us.

He stared at the battle report as he shook his head. This wasn't something they'd ever faced before, something unknown to the United States as a whole.
