บท 330: Rogue Ship

"Shit! The Britannian battleship just fired on their aircraft carrier," the captain of the Rurik Class Battlecruiser cursed, completely flummoxed at what just happened. 

"Captain! We can't contact Admiral Samuel! What do we do?" 

"Inform all the captains of respective ships to commence battle stations!" the captain of the Rurik Class Battlecruiser commanded and continued. "We have to inform the Central Command about this and wait for orders. For now, do not fire unless fired upon."

Inside the HMS Illustrious, Admiral George and Samuel were lying on the floor, groaning in pain as a powerful shockwave knocked them out. They slowly rose to their feet, staggering and reeling as they ascertained what happened.

"Someone just fired on us!" Samuel shouted. 

"Was it you?" George yelled back. 

"There is no way that my fleet will attack the Britannian without my orders!" Samuel defended.
