A Day to be Reckoned With - Part One

[Adrian Gibson]

The Command team close all of the Documents, they look at Ranger and they stand up slowly and head for another table that was placed at the other end of the room. The pull their chairs out and sit down, opening all the documents again. Whispers and the odd raised voice can heard by Ranger but he can not make out exactly what they're saying. Some time passes before they stand back up and take a seat around the table that Ranger was sat at. All 4 documents are placed back out on the table but only one was passed back to Ranger. It was titled "Texas".

"Texas" Andrew spoke slowly. "This is where we'll be staging our attack. The field that you have suggested will do and it is not to far away from the nearby jump hole that takes us to California and then onto Magellan. As you are aware, Task Force Warhammer will not have enough personal to manage to cause a distraction and to capture the Vessel. Here's your new assignment for now. We need you to get into contact with other Hellfire squadrons that are out there, see who is willing to help us and then brief their Leaders on what is going to happen. We do not have a set date for this as of now, but all personal will have to be ready for when we say it's go time. Everyone will remain on high alert after you get the communications out because the attack could happen at any time. Our scouts will be sent out disguised as Civilians and they will radio back every 30 minutes about the current situation in the surrounding systems of Texas. You have your assignment, get out and do it. You are dismissed." As Ranger gets up to leave via the door, the Command Team head back over to their table on the other side of the room and they start to talk once more. He leaves the room to prepare to send his communication out.
