Subject 73 Red
saw
Admiral Tobias Larr exiting the Wheel, and he frowned. That wasn't good, he most likely knew what was about to go down. Then, as if on a schedule, the sirens went off, and everyone began running to evacuate. Red scowled. Damn it! So, the Admiral
had leaked to Loreena. Whatever, that would be dealt with later. Right now, Red had to act.
He shouted.
"Loreena!" He yelled at her, calling her attention. Then, he pulled something out of his pocket. A small, metallic device. Loreena would be able to recognize it, it was a thermal detonator. Red activated it.
"Catch!" He yelled. Then, he threw the grenade at her, and he ran in the opposite direction. The grenade soared towards her...
But it didn't explode. It fell to the ground, harmlessly. Written on the grenade, in small handwriting, were the words, "Congratulations on your marriage."
The grenade still didn't go off. In fact, Red hadn't even activated the timer. Sure, it was a pretty bad gift for a wedding, but it was the best that Red could provide under the circumstances. Besides, with what was going to happen, it might even be useful.
Red ran to a small employee station. The employees had filed out, heading to evacuate. Red opened one of the lockers, and inside was his armor and his weapons.
Red grabbed his armor, and began changing into it, getting ready for the battle ahead.

QEMD-15 Echo
tilted his head upon hearing the sirens. This was a tad bit early, but the attack would occur none the less. Echo messaged all the units awaiting the attack.
Begin Phase 2. Begin the Attack.
Then, Echo began walking forward, towards the theme park. From his loudspeakers, he blared, above the sound of the sirens,
"Loreena Arenais, wanted for illegal terrorism and conspiracy, you are to come forward immediately, or face the consequences. We have you surrounded, this is your final warning."
The message echoed across the amusement park. Then, the message played, again, and again, and again, each seemingly coming from different areas around the park. Everyone heard the message, but Echo doubted that Loreena would turn herself in.
Then, Echo emerged from the tree-line. Now, he was visible, and Loreena would know that this would be just like that time on Orellon II, when Echo had first captured her. He had subjected her and the people around her to horror, to pure agony.
And it would happen again.
Suddenly, another droid like Echo broke from the tree-line, on the opposite side of the park. Then another, and another. Suddenly, each of the large droids began blaring their own sirens from their loudspeakers, these sirens even louder than the ones already happening in the park. They stood at the edges of the park, awaiting for the next move.
~~~
Begin Phase 2. Begin the Attack.
When
TE-236
received that message after he heard the sirens, he knew that it was time. He turned to the crew of soldiers manning the mortars that he had ordered set up. The armor of the soldiers was painted camouflage, so that they could blend into the forest better. He looked at them.
"Select your targets. Aim at the exact coordinates that I have instructed you to aim at." He ordered them. The soldiers on the multiple mortars nodded and began calculating their aiming trajectories.
"The wind is blowing westward, at 2 miles per hour, be sure to adjust for wind direction, wind speed, the force of your mortar, and the weight of your payload." He told them. He was a tactical droid, after all. He was very skilled and calculations and algorithms.
"Mortars are aimed and calculated, sir!" Yelled a corporal.
"Load your mortars and fire!" Gin ordered.
The soldiers loaded their mortars and fired them. The rounds arced up above the trees, and dropped down onto the park. All across the park, high-explosive mortar rounds crashed into the park. Explosions rocked the ground as rides, attractions, pathways, and buildings all got blown to pieces. Then, the mortar team reloaded, and fired again. More explosions rocked all across the park. Screams of those in the park could be heard.
"Mortar Team 1, continue shelling. Mortar Team 2, fire incendiaries!" He ordered.
"Yes sir!"
The secondary mortar team loaded their mortars, and fired the incendiary rounds off. The incendiary rounds, paired with the high-explosive rounds, crashed into the park. Flames burst out, spreading quickly, and blocking off pathways, and setting fire to buildings, and more explosions rocked the park. A high-explosive round crashed into the Orbital Wheel, blowing a large piece of the attraction off.
"Mortar Team 1, Mortar Team 2, hold fire." Gin told them. They stopped firing, but they did load rounds into their mortars.
"Mortar Team 3, fire smokescreen!"
"Acknowledged!"
More rounds fired off from Mortar Team 3. Instead of crashing into the ground, these rounds exploded in mid-air, smoke billowing out and settling over the ground, reducing visibility. At least for the Rebels. For Gin's troops, their visors had thermal vision, which allowed them to see through the smoke.
TE-236 activated his commlink, contacting all of his forces.
"45th Mechanized Infantry 'X' Battalion, begin the assault!"
"Yes sir!"
"Acknowledged, Lieutenant Colonel."
"Roger, moving out!
"Beginning attack!"
"Move to your sectors, trap the Rebels!" Gin told them.
The Battalion of about 760 soldiers began moving forward towards the amusement park from all sides. Each Company and Platoon had a wide variety of troopers, from assault troopers, to snipers, to flame troopers, to heavy gunners. 4
light tanks and
2 main battle tanks also began their approach. They were prepared for almost every situation. They all had that same camouflage armor. The troopers shouted to each other, shouting orders and where to move. Soon, they would be inside the park.
And time would soon run out for Loreena.
