"Aside from the fact that they too are mobilizing for something we don't know about”, the Vigi continued, “I think it wise that we begin mobilizing. I have already conversed with the science department and they have agreed to update us on weaponry and defenses." The Line Admiral sat down and a woman stood up. Her name was Alara and she is a brilliant but short tempered woman. She is a perfectionist in all she does, and will never cease to work until she knows that nothing can possibly go wrong; even to the point to when things do go wrong, she knows about it. People call he insane, but Josius can think of no one better for the job.
“Aside from the initial reports of our progress that you have seen, the major advance is the new ‘stealth suits’ for the Night Fighters and ‘Hell-Suits’ for the Hell Squads.” The large screen that displayed the miniature dots now switched to show two spinning suit. The size of the first suit seemed to be equal to a normal person, but the second suit towered it at about 13 feet by 8 feet. Josius was now very much amused. Alara smiled seeing the interest in the Ethereal peek, “all I need now is funding.” The board chuckled a hushed laugh that brought a large smile across Josius’ face.

I want everyone to remember that this is NOT a war, but a means to prevent it. Vigi,”
“Yes, sir?”
“Do you have the coordinates to the others?”
“Yes, sir we do.”
“I want an emissary sent to each capitol. Emphasis on that we are a people of peace and do not wish to fight. However when push come to shove, we will bite back.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Good, I want everyone back here for a status report on our mobilization before the setting of the sun; dismissed.” The room emptied very quickly and Josius was sitting alone in the room. It transpired all so quickly that he needed time to take it all in. “Sir?”, inquired one of his bodyguards. “I think I’ll take a walk,” he replied and rose from his seat and headed his way out of the war room and towards the outskirts
