Commodore Dredd turned up to Planet Manhattan in search for some better cloths. He considered this an adventure upon itself due to the masses of people in the massive mall occupying around a fifth of the planet's surface. Around sixteen million were estimated to be here looking for something for New Years, either alcohol, drugs, or even the more innocent things like a festive shirt or a brand new Land Speeder, but there was a lot of people here. But after seven hours of searching and pushing through the masses, he found exactly what he wanted: Leather Jacket with studs on the shoulders, a pair of Cowboy Boots with the spikes on the back. brown leather pants, and a Cowboy Hat. He was half Cowboy, half Terminator. After all of this action, he arrived at his ship on the main Launching points. The Chimera seems to have bee graffiti-ed by some mob as now on the window itself, it says "Happy New Year!" "They could've write it something other then the damn ship!" He thought angrily. Commodore walked unto the ships wing, held out his hand to the slot and held it there for two seconds. "Access Granted! Welcome Commodore Dredd." Says the ships computer. After being settled into the ship. he turned on the news. Reports of people like Ricky Muss from the Star Warrior's movie was going to be here at Manhattan today. "My favourite Actor!" He thought to himself happily. Other actors and VIP's were going to also be at Manhattan today also. However, the plan was cut short. Commodore Dredd saw something in the distance of the clear blue sky. It looked to be wing of Liberty Navy Fighters in Crusaders. "What the hell are those guys doing in the Atmosphere?" Commodore asked to himself. And within a split second, missiles rained out of the Crusader's onto the building's below. "That's not Liberty Navy ships!" I exclaimed. I started up the ship and before I managed to take off, they fired yet another souffle into a nearby Building. Commodore took off from the pad at lightning speed and engaged the Crusaders. His Coalition Gatling were more then a match for their wyrms. However, he have to be careful, even bullet spray can have the same damage as a missile, and he must use Counter measures at all costs, in case he dodges and the missile hit's the buildings. After a couple of minutes of pure dog-fighting against the terrorists, Commodore emerged victorious. However, their debris made a small bit of damage but according to Authorities, there was no casualties in there, then they looked at the Death Toll's. Seventy Thousand people were killed and a total of two hundred and forty thousand were injured, either minorly or majorly. "They never even stood a chance." Commodore said to himself. I take off from the Atmosphere before the police arrive. Dredd quickly made haste to Planet Pittsburgh to discuss business with a colleague. He approached the man. "Hello Dredd!" Says the man. "Hi King." "Nice to see you here!" King says with hope in his eyes. "You heard about the terrorist attack?" I say to him. "Yes. I heard. The casualties were high. They never even saw it coming. Amazing how the Police Force can't do anything right, right Dredd?" His face looked serious. "Yeah, now how come the LSF couldn't pick this up? I mean those five Liberty Navy pilots were obviously hijacked. So how come the LSF didn't do anything about it?" "We didn't know, they blocked us from their location so we didn't know where they were. They were last at Westpoint so we thought they were going to attack there. We sent a Navy Battle-group to clear things up, but they attacked Manhattan, a more obvious choice for a terrorist on New Years." He then turned to me. "However, we tracked their hideout and know exactly where their base of operations are." Dredd looks him in the eye. "And I suggest you need me there?" "You explored the Galaxy, fought aliens alongside aliens, eliminated that terrorist attack within a matter of minutes, of course we need you there!" Exclaimed King. Now suit up, we have our most trusted LSF officers waiting outside Pittsburgh. I'll meet you out there." Says King as he walks off. "Great, another mission." Dredd thought to himself. He wondered why King had a thing for Pittsburgh.
"LSF Gamma-16, what's your status over." Channels King to the Leader of the LSF wing. "Gamma-6 everything's green over." "Alright everyone!" Says King on area channel. "Form on me, we are heading to the Debris cloud. Once there, we'll pick up their scent." King channels to me. "You ready?" Dredd turns his HAILCON on. "Yeah I'm ready." I hear static on the other end, then "Good, we are heading into the Lion's Den. Stay close to my ship. And don't wander off." Dredd speaks into the HAILCON again. "Roger that" His Formation Autopilot seems to be doing a great job, normally, he'd crash into combs of debris. All of a sudden the radar turned red. "Alert! We read four wings of hostile ships. Everyone." He paused for a moment. "Engage." All of a flying sudden, Dredds Coalition gatling were pounding into a Rouge fighter. Within a matter of seconds, it was gone, he then turned to another one, and missiled it. There was a loud boom, then it disappeared. Suddenly, Dredd was being pot-shotted by a volley of projectiles. Their guns were doing some lengthy damage. So he quickly thrustered, then engine kill, turned, and thrustered in towards them, firing an array of guns and missiles. He killed six out of eight in front of him. Soon everyone closed in on the rouges and they were gone. "That was fun!" Yells King on the Area Channel. "I managed to tag their rendevouz point if thing's went south. It appears they exited the Radiation cloud before they all died." Informs King. "Well we'd better head there then." Dredd says. "Right on." says the Gamma Leader. They were now on the way to the Base of Operation for those terrorists. "Today, we will make those rouges pay." Says King. Within seconds, they entered the black cloud. Then they emerged in the centre. "Oh my lord." Said the second man of Gamma Leader. It wasn't a base at all, it was a Liberty Dreadnought. It must've also been hijacked. Soon, their cannon's opened fire. The entire gamma wing was gone within seconds. "We're [Static]... going [Static]." Then his scream of pain echoed in through the HAILCON. "The gamma leader was gone. Then it paralysed the remainder with some sort of EMP area bomb. Then Dredd and King were boarded by transports. Dredd put up a fight and losr in the end. They both then entered the bridge of the Mighty war vassal. "How do you guys hijack these vessels without anyone noticing." Dredd asks. "Because... Dredd, we aren't ordinary rouges." He was still staring out the Window into the black cloud of darkness. "What do you mean by that?" Dredd asks again. The man turns around. 'We aren't terrorists." His eyes started to glow blue and ha had a purple tinge of light coming out of his eyes. "We aren't even humans." King's eyes opened wide. "Nomads!" Dredd looked back the the man. "I thought the Dom'Kavash rehabilitated you people?" Dredd says. "Not all of us." He looked at King. "You'd make a fine warrior for us people." He then walked over to King and began to convert him. "Arrrghhhh!" Shouts King. However at the end of his scream, a boom hits the Dreadnought, Then LSF agents swarmed the police and shot every criminal in there. The Nomad turned to King then Dredd, then he was quickly shot. And that was the end of that.
Dredd arrived back on Manhattan with his ship, and his life. "Thank god for those agents" he told himself, He then settled into the bar to buy himself some food. He needed a rest after what he just endured!
