"No. Don't send them a warning. Send them a peace agreement. One week of no fighting between our forces. If they believe that we are Wounded, they will no suspect anything when we attack."
English

"Yes sir; follow me." She replies, allowing Kotch and Rotor to talk about Cerberus matters. She opens up the door next to the personal quarters, leading to an almost empty room with a drone hovering itself near the back. Another drone laid near by. "Propaganda room. Pretty self-explanatory. When you're ready, I'll set everything up to look like some type of IMC ship or something like that." Julia explains, going in the back of the room with the drone.
-
Derek took a step forward, entering his office military posture. His hands behind his back, standing tall and strong. "Ready." He said, staring at the drone
-
She tinkered with the drone and her omni-tool for a little bit, before she smiled. "You can go when ready, sir." She replies.
-
"As you know, I am Vice Admiral Derek McKeon, part of the IMC. The Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation has sustained heavy losses at key points of these Titan Wars. Demeter, our supply Depot, at Typhon. In remembrance of these losses, the IMC requests one single week, Seven days, to take off of our war. To mourn those that have been lost to the fullest extent, without fear of attack. We extend the offer of piece to the Militia, for a temporary time. Please do not refuse grievance. That is all."
-
The drone recorded the entire thingg, ending it right after he finished. "Good work, sir! Gonna edit this in a little bit and it'll start running through all Militia channels. Kotch is meeting up with some other Cerberus generals to talk about what'll happen." Julia had added, Rotor coming in. "Vasquez; Kotch says he's gonna take a rest. You've gotten command of the ship, ma'am." Rotor explained in his thick Irish accent. "Thanks. Head back to your stations and prepare for impact." She replies, as Vasquez went to a nearby computer, using her Omni-tool to work on sending it out. "Do whatever you want, McKeon. We got eight minutes before we arrive." She responds.
-
"Understood." Derek said, leaving the room and returning to the armoury, inspecting the various

[spoiler]Aight.[/spoiler] [i]8 minutes later....[/i] "Brace for impact!" Rotor yelled, the ship lading within orbit of a small [url=http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/masseffectitalia/images/2/2e/Anedia.png/revision/latest?cb=20140622173617&path-prefix=it]planet[/url], which was most likely Anedia. "Captain, Kotch just sent a message form personal quarters; says he wants you to come with him to Anedia. You and him have command of the Mons and all dealings with the IMC, ma'am." Someone replies from the terminal. "Alright. Tell McKeon and his posse to meet our a**** at the hangar in five minutes." Julia had commanded, making her way down to the bridge. She passed by the armory, where she motioned McKeon to follow her, as Valencio was modifying an ERAD outfitted with mini-Sidewinder bullets...or at least was trying to.
-
Derek noticed her, and jogged out of the armour, falling in line behind her "Where to?" He asked, looking around the hallway
-
"Hangar. We're on Anedia, and we've got guys working on the ships's FTL core now." She says, as they made their way down the elevator. "Kotch will be here in a little bit; just woke up from his sleep."
-
"Understood. What's the game plan?" Derek asked, tapping at a data pad on his fore arm
-
"We go in, talk to the other generals, then relax here until we're ready to strike; simple as that." She responded, as they landed in the hangar. Atlas mechs were being loaded onto racks, and soldiers and people were rushing around, Kodiaks being sent out.
-
"Seems like a military operation if anything. All these people running about.." As the two walked, the two IMC pilots fell in line behind Derek
-
"Can't blame them. Want to make sure no ship other than either pirates or Cerberus are here." She says, a Kodiak waiting in line for them...with Kotch on it. "You really didn't think I was sleeping, right? I'd need the normal 8 hours over 10-15 minutes." He says, allowing both Julia and Derek on board with the pilots, as the door closed. "Just to let you know, we're meeting with Admiral Petrovsky, which has the criminal homebase of Omega under control, Admiral Sokolov, whose in control of the elite Cerberus fleets on Meizhong, and General Davison, whose in command of our ground fleets. They're already aware of you, so just try not to piss 'em off." Kotch whispers to Derek, as the Kodiak left the Olympus Mons and made its way down to the surface.
-
"Understood, I'll take your advice under consideration. I suppose it depends on what happens down there." Derek glanced over at Kotch, shaking his head in dismissal "Hopefully I say the right things, and hopefully they don't go to hard on me."
-
"They won't. Not many people these days like Cerberus, so to see the IMC step up makes us respect you guys in our books." Kotch had replied, the sound of the Kodiak breaking into the atmosphere of the planet being heard.
-
"People aren't like Cerberus? Is it with their actions? What they've done? Or something else?" Derek asked

Edited by A Stormy Dio: 6/21/2017 3:27:13 PM"Well, they first tried to take Demeter back from the Alliance. Of course, the Militia helped there, and knocked the imposter's forces back. Then we had the whole deal with Arcturus Station. Not to mention that we nearly blew Arcturus Station up with a black hole." Kotch had explained, the Kodiak opening to reveal a woman in a Cerberus uniform waiting for them. "Sir, the admirals were just getting set up." The woman said. "Good; get us to them." Julia had told the woman, the three making their way through the base. ------ ([i]Later...[/i]) "....Well, I want to know if Cerberus had anything that could counter anything Aria plans to throw at me!" Petrovsky had yelled out. "We could provide you with anti-space Thanix Cannons, but at this point, the Alliance might as well have the bloody Death Star!" Another general yelled out. Considering they were all on holograms, this was the scene the trio walked into. "You two dumb idiots, the IMC ambassador is here; show some respect!" Davison yelled out, the three stopping their argument to face McKeon. "Admiral Kotch, Lieutenant-Commander Vasquez, Vice Admiral McKeon...it's an honor to meet your all." Davison started with.
-
"Hello, generals, Admirals, and other various ranked members." Derek said, walking forward in a stiff posture, his hands behind his back as he looked between the three
-
"We would just like to talk matters over with you. The Illusive Man had already sent us the information. You're willing to support us against the Alliance in trade for helping in the war against the Militia?" Davison asked. "If this is true, then I can be willing to send some scout drones into Harmony using Omega; they could be able to trace it back to Aria, which'll possibly end in her losing potential allies." Petrovsky had said, focusing on a chess board next to him. "And I could supply some Cerberus dreadnoughts in full support." Sokolvsky added. "I can add additional ground forces to the ships, as they'll attack Militia ships." Davison had brought to the table.
-
"These are all excellent ideas. But here is my own. I have specially requested to the Militia that there be a Cease Fire between our forces." The Vice Admiral began "Now is the time to rally our troops, and to bring IMC forces from The Core Systems here, to the Frontier." "Once we have amassed a sizable force, we will break the Cease Fire by a full invasion of Harmony."
-
The Admirals had talked to one another for a little bit before returning to the Vice Admiral. "We will accept your plan. Cerberus will send some of its own fleet, allowing with the Olympus Mons in full support." Petrovsky replied. "We may have recovered your Ark plans. The Illusive Man upgraded our main F-SPAR cannons with similar abilities to the ARK, being able (at 100% charge) to blast an entire capital city out of existence." Kotch explained. "If you plan on destroying Harmony, the Mons could do just that, as long as no one attempts to breach their defenses and infiltrate the ship itself." Vasquez explained.
-
"No, we aren't destroying the planet itself. We're going to destroy their morale, their armies, their navies. Everything. Once they see that they will not win this, their people will turn on the Militia. We will gain support of people. That is what we need." Derek said in a voice of authority and confidence
-
"Hm...so we first beat them in a battle of attrition, and then propaganda...quite clever...however, they'll also need to know that the IMC have more powerful allies than the Militia, and that we will destroy if necessary." Petrovsky explains, before Kotch walked up. "My plan would've involved the destruction of Harmony's capital city...it'll most likely cripple Militia morale and show the rest of humanity how powerful the IMC could be. Plus, it wipes out most of their chain of command." He says. "Would that do, Derek?" "Based on his plan, I whole-heartedly agree with the plan; as you have said, if the Militia do lean much on morale, destroying their capital city should suffice." Petrovsky answered. "Bad move, personally. Destruction of the capital will only boost morale of the Milita, considering they can just say that the IMC killed innocents. I'd say use the F-SPAR Cannon on their ships." Davison added. "I'd rather wait on your choice, Vice Admiral; it is your battle that we've been willing to fight." Sokolvsky told McKeon. Kotch and Vasquez were looking to Derek waiting on an answer. "We're behind you on whatever decision you make, Derek." [spoiler]Up to you Royal.[/spoiler]
