((Yup))
Damien got a report of the Helmshirish machines that were advancing. "Well, is it time to bring out the machine that the twins designed?" Damien asked the Chief General.

"Yeah. It doesn't look like our front linemen are making any progress, but I think they took out the majority of the traps." Jian replied. "It seems as if their weak point is here. We'll send them that way."

"Good. Let's show Helmshire our new toy" Damien stated.

Jian sent the signal as hundreds of smaller, single man driven cat-like machines started racing forwards at great speeds (like 100 mph). Because of the sheer number, it created a devastating wave-like motion as they started taking down Helmshire troops.

"Helmshire gave us an extra five minutes, huh? It seems we underestimated our own plan", Zil said after receiving news about what was happening at the border as his troops began to dig a hole into the ground above. The three teams, beta, charlie and delta afterwards went up to the control towers above each team, taking down the media crew and began messing with the radio stations and sending out messages that made no sense to the general public. Team beta sent out the message, "Fox drive sum beta road", for example and repeated those keywords assigned to them after a brief, threatening message that Diethelm was going to be destroyed with help from foreign nations supporting democracy.
Team Alpha on the other hand was still underground, awaiting the broadcast before hearing the loud explosion from around. Rebel supporters who understood the keywords took to arms in the streets, rallying the people for democracy. At the same time, a bomb exploded, collapsing a building close to the Diethelm HQ, effectively making it fall in the direction of the government building. "3,2,1..." Zil counted down silently, listening to more transmissions on his communicator as he awaited the turmoil to begin.
"Our calculations were correct. Diethelm is quite impulsive", Kyrell commented mostly to himself as he received the report. As the first Helmshire wave of machines was destroyed. "Send in the flying ones. Did the head engineer check them well?" The communications head nodded and sent the command. "Second wave. Commence!", Kyrell said as dozens of flying machines (like small helicopters) built with the same core as the cat-like machines went out of hiding and filled the place with a loud whizzing. Immediately, they began to take down one by one each Diethelm machine was left below armed with a handful of lasers, dropped bombs and guns.
Fanny had been sobbing when she saw Zil's communicator black out and felt relieved as team alpha moved further into Diethelm and his signal was back on. It was like a sports game to watch except it meant life or death.
The police was dispatched to arrest the protesters although a lot were shot as well. The secret police snipers had been shooting down protesters and anyone coming from the building where a bomb exploded. They were busy... Very busy. Monica was facing some decisions, distracted by the several things going on at once. Bomb nearby, protesters, the frikkin scam transmissions on three different radio stations... "That's it!", she said to herself as she got up and ran to where Jian and Damien were, barging in with the necessary reports in her hands but before she could say a word, it was only then that she got up from her desk that she realized how exhausted she was and collapsed at the door, still holding the papers. Two secret police officers followed after her and saluted Jian and Damien before coming to attend to their chief.

Damien felt an explosion that shook HQ and then saw Monica burst into his office with files and then collapse. "What is going on here?!!" he demanded.

((Well, Aya, you would be right! Remember those tanks I mentioned the twins building? Three months passed right? ))
"What?" Jian muttered. "They have our technology? But... Well, I'm sure they don't have scarabs..." He muttered, signaling for three large machines to start moving. They were much slower then the cat models, but they were massive machines the size of a building shaped like the legendary bug. They had eight legs with fifty large cannons. They were literally walking forts, and they began taking down the flying machines as if they were flies from a distance. They stayed on the defensive side, taking out the flying machines while the cat machines started finally breaking through the enemy lines.

After hearing Damien, Jian perked up and turned to see Monica on the ground. "Monica?!" He called with alarm, briefly stepping down from his post to check and see if she was alright. "Monica?" He asked, turning her over carefully and lifting her head.

"Who knew?" Kyrell muttered, switching their plans to the defensive. He paced about and said after a moment of thought, "Those pyromaniac apprentices. They mentioned building a missile. Does it work?" The castle head of communications looked at Kyrell stunned before replying, "Your highness! That thing is very volatile. We don't know how big the explosion could be. It hasn't been tested. We should look at alternatives"
Kyrell glared at the man and replied swiftly, "There are no alternatives." He crossed his arms and continued, "Do you think I would even mention it if we had something else to work with? Lives are lost with every moment with dilly dally. We have nothing else left so we might as well have fate in this last cry for freedom" Kyrell put his hand forward and said, "Do it!"
The castle head of communications gulped and reluctantly pressed a button that deployed the massive thing into the sky. The apprentices who made it looked rather flabbergasted that their little experiment that hadn't even been perfected yet was flying in the air, away from the capital and onto the border. The two looked at each other and wondered if someone was messing with their heads. Why would anyone want to use an experimental missile so soon without prior testing? It was flying straight at one of the scarabs. Actually, missiles had existed long ago. It was just not popular in Helmshire before they became this desperate to beat Diethelm. The new invention, in fact, was the homing device that came with it.
"Looks like our jig is up", Zil said, putting away his communicator after hearing that the prince was reluctant to sent more troops down to the border. Judging from the scenario, it was pretty futile. "Time's up. Let's go" He walked away from leaning on the wall and used the commotion above-ground to carefully get his team out and around. "Take those ones out, will you?", Zil said calmly to ten of his best, having them distract Monica's snipers while he and a handful of men snuck into the government building.
One of them nodded and planted a small bomb on the side of the building where some of the snipers were (they wouldn't do much. Probably just make noise more than damage property) and immediately made a run for it, knowing all eyes would be on him and was shot five times before finally succumbing to death. That and the running and panicking outside the Diethelm government building bought Zil's men enough time to get into position and enter from different parts, providing a suitable distraction for Zil and his bodyguards to enter Diethelm HQ unquestioned and unbothered as they were dressed in Diethelm uniforms with IDs of the soldiers they killed previously. Everyone else was too busy deploying troops to protect the building. The game would now begin. In Zil's eyes, the cat had become the mouse... One that had to be exterminated. The other nine of Team Alpha went up each building to distract the snipers further or downright just kill them if they could. Monica still lay unconscious but her grip had been tight on the papers that she had as though it were very important that Damien and Jian read all of it now. It contained the full reports of what happened on the border, info on the bombing and the locations where the rallying on Diethelm's streets had become intense. "Sir, we have reason to believe that this is merely over exhaustion. Chief Ravenstone should be perfectly fine when she awakes", one of the secret police commented.
((OOC: I knew it! I'm right. And I know about that one. For now, I don't know what else Helmshire can do unless Shadow decides to help... Or be a heartless b***h and let everyone die XD XD ))

((Well, here's the thing about Shadow. She can't do anything by this point. She could have when she found the books in the library, but she would have rather burned the books and let Helmshire fall then to give the books to Helmshire to save it. What was written in them she felt would consume the world in war. So yeah... she's just going to stick by the sidelines. ))
"I see..." Jian replied, examining her and checking her pulse.
"Sir, we need you back at the post! Helmshire launched some kind of new missle." A soldier said.
"What?!" Jian said with alarm. "Please guard her with your life." He said, picking Monica up and handing her to the secret police man. He took the papers from her hand and put them on Damien's desk. He then ran back into position to assess the situation. "Move!" He said. "Shoot it down!" He commanded as the scarab shot the missile in mid air, but due to the force of the explosion, it took out a good chunk out of one of the scarabs. "Damn... what kind of... well, at least it's still partially operational..." He muttered. "Scarab 1 and 3, protect scarab 2. Taking down those missiles needs to be your first priority. The second is the flying aircraft. Most of those are gone anyway, and we don't know how many more missiles they have hidden." He ordered.

The prince of Helmshire heaved a great sigh when he heard that no Helmshirians died from the explosion but that it was close enough to have produced a shockwave and partially demobilized one of the scarabs. "Beautiful", he muttered and said, "Alright. Is the telegram up? Send Diethelm this message: 'We have more missiles just waiting to be used and we will not relent until Diethelm stops this invasion or your capital city burns to the ground'"
"But your highness!" The head of communications replied, looking up at his prince.
"No buts. Just do as I say. I know we don't have any more but let us try and get them to back off for a bit. We need to buy a little more time... For the b*****d who should be in Diethelm's HQ this very moment" Kyrell said. The message was sent to be decoded by Diethelmians who received it. His father had been anxious, unsure if he made the right decision by letting Kyrell make the calls in this war without interference from the self-glorifying advisers that always hounded him and contradicted his decisions.
Zil and some of his men were already in the elevator and on their way to where Damien was, delaying not and not giving time for the real soldiers to know something was wrong. There were fewer of them than before. Around just five since the others were in other parts of the building, seeking to mess with the machines to be sent later on. Monica was still unconscious as she was handed to her officer. He hurried with his partner and brought her to the clinic so they could check on her condition.
