Mariss Prime was a uninhabited planet located near Yinchorr, the perfect place to put a Germanican military base on. That was the reason Max was picking this place, it's many climates were perfect for civilizations and military strongholds. Also, few people would expect this place habited by Germanicans.

"Gero, are you there?" Max asked in his comm unit. "Tell all Germanican fleets to get ready to land. I can tell there will be little resistance from the "locals"."

Max was in his private fighter. Not many people had them, but they were worth it. Only high ranking officials could have private fighters. Max was no exception of high ranking official. He was the highest rank there was. He liked it that way, but he also didn't like it.

Annie was a SpecOps member.This was her second mission and she was suppose to go on the planet first along with three squads of Germanican troops and a guardsman. She was tired of being the reserve Operative for the "Grays" this was her chance to prove woorthwhile.She was going to prove she could do it.

SpecOps leader Leviasus Muglatroliss sat in his chair within the center of the bridge control section. His officers around him constantly alerted him to the actions of his assisstant, Annie. Although Leviasus had complete confidence in her abilities, he couldn't stop wondering at what may lurk unknown within the planet below, and the dangers Annie might face.

Max was thinking of everybody in orbit of Mariss Prime and young Annie on the planet. Annie was equipped with powerful things, but what if there were even more poerful things? Max knew of many dangers he had to go through when he was younger because of his moth adbanoning him and his father dying.

Annie was a great soldier, beautiful and, friendly. She also was one of the deadliest Special Operatives for the Germanicans. She was going to contact them once she had checked everything and got ready for the big landing. They were going to land any moment, Max knew Annie would not fail them or would she?

Dorn watched the transport ships he sent out to "assist" in the landing. He counted the ships to make sure that the dispatch officer got the orders right. "Alright 2 small transports and 1 squadron of my best fighters" Dorn mumbled. Since the death of his second he was running both positions. He wanted to find a new one to his liking but Max ordered his fleet out before he could choose someone.

"Max" Dorn called out on the comm "remember if you need anymore support we're right here" Dorn said looking out over the small fleet.

Max decided it was too long. He ordered the troops to wait, becase he was going to find Annie and do sentry work while he was at it. He looked towards his picture of her. He would kill for her safety.

Max jumped down into his Advanced Delta-7 Aethersprite's cockpit and ordered his squad mates to get into their Delta-7 Aethersprite-class Light Interceptors. They all flew down to the surface and to a possibly fatal mission.

Max looked down on the planet and made his right wingman to land before him. He then touched down, and jumped out. He pulled out his twin sith blades and ran towards Annie's last location. He saw nothing, and ordered huis men to land.

He was nervous and afraid that Annie might have been in trouble, but she wasn't she was, but not anymore. She was dead. Max looked down and ran to his Advanced Delta-7 Aethersprite and flew away.

[font=Arial Narrow]Dorn saw Max leave the system, he was about to follow as well, but Max's voice came over the comm unit, " No Dorn, I am going to visit Philos, you send troops down there, and have Leonidas lead them, good luck, and capture that planet!"[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"Alright, you owe me though! Remember the Corellian Run?" Dorn chuckled into the comm unit.[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"I try not to, plus that doesn't count! Hurry, my brother, for Germanica!" Max replied into his comm, he looked out towards the Star Destroyer that Dorn was in, as he said so. "And... try to keep the Destroyer safe!"[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]Max zoomed out of the system and towards the capital, leaving Dorn and Leonidas to lead the next raging battle.[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]

[font=Arial Narrow]"I wonder how many times Max has said that to me?" Dorn said out loud chuckling under his breath. "Oh well. Trooper? Are the transports for the infantry on the planet's surface yet?"[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"No sir. The last rtansport has just not left the capital, I believe. The first landing should be any minute now!" the young man stated, obviously nervous in being on his first mission.[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"Excellent. I might just go down there myself!" Dorn stated scratching the back of his neck. "Prepare my shuttle! I will be assisting the ground troops!"[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]'Is that wise, my lord? Aren't you the.... Grand Admiral? Shouldn't you be on the ship?" the same germanican officer questioned to Velvok's order.[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"Do you question my abilities, trooper? You have not seen anyone fight ever, I am sure of, including me. In fact, Max is training me in swordsmanship!" Dorn stated, as the officers eyes went on alert. "It is alright. I understand."[/font]
[font=Arial Narrow][/font]
[font=Arial Narrow]"I will be landing with Leonidas!" Dorn shouted out. "Where is he anyways?"[/font]

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Leonidas felt the heat as he was going through the atmosphere. The transport Leonidas was in now was a capsule shaped shuttle that was shot from the large capital ship that resembled Germanica’s army. The transport held three soldiers each. It also showed Germanica’s lack of technology. [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Finally, the SpecOps leader felt a big bang under the transport and then complete silence. All of the sudden there was a knocking on the transports door and then a voice. “You’re clear to come out!”[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Leonidas took off the straps holding him to the wall of the transport and got up. He needed to crouch in the small capsule. He finally exited the transport swinging his neck from side to side from awkward way he held it in the capsule. He pulled out a rifle from the wall and swung it from his back. He then checked it he had all his gear, including a knife, Blastech EE-6 Blaster Rifles, Blastech DL-18, vibrosword, and a sniper rifle. He is a living arsenal of weapons.[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]Once he got done checking his weapons, he looked around to see six other SpecOps troops, he called them over and they came over. “You three, take two squads of commandos, and scout out the northern hemisphere of a twenty mile radius. You three take two squads of commandos and scout the southern side. Report to me if you find anything or complete it and find nothing. I will then tell you your next mission. I will take three squads of commandos and scout out the remaining area on this island. There also ships fllying around in the sky patrolling the area, do not shoot at them. They are ours. Is that clear?”[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]“Yessir!” was the reply of the SpecOps troops as they started to do their jobs. Leonidas turned around and made his way to a few squads of commandos and ordered them to come with him, and they did![/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]

[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]A few minutes later[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]“Sir, there is a giant city here, is amazing. And the people are alright too! You have to check this out.” was what the voice said coming through his comm unit hooked on the collar of his under robe.[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]“Where is your current position?” Leonidas asked into the comm unit.[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]“We are a few miles south of the check point.” they responded.[/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode] [/font]
[font=Lucida Sans Unicode]“Alright., I am coming!” he replied to the voice on the other line. He turned off the channel and looked back at the commandos. “You heard them! Move out!”[/font]
