Beginning

The year is 2003, the future. Everything you know of the Robotech History is over. This is a different story. Welcome to a parallel dimension of Earth. Aliens have come to take over and destroy all human life. Some aliens have allied with humans and given them an edge against the invasion. This edge is called Robotechnology. This is a story about a small band of unorthodox and elite pilots called The Shadow Squadron. Their mission is to take on the alien race known as The Zentraedi Elite Destroyers or Z.E.D. Let the War begin… L.A.- I wonder if I made the right choice. L.A. thinks to himself almost arriving at the coordinates of Shadow Base 1 in a transport jeep. He feels the heat from the scorching desert only known as classified as “The Shadow Desert” located somewhere in a new country called “New Cross”. L.A. ponders the thought of the choice he was given to start a new squadron, but feels an incredible sensation to join Captain Nautica’s new squadron. L.A.- For some reason, it just feels right. L.A. stops at a guard post, but sees no base L.A- Where do I park? Skyle7- Park where you see that cone, sir. L.A.- Oh, okay. L.A. looks uncertain and drives towards the orange con and stops. He looks back at the guard post but it is gone. L.A.- Okay, no more blue gin this early for me. Suddenly, the ground starts to descend around him. There is nothing but darkness as he looks around. He looks up and sees a hole above him being covered and everything goes completely dark. The surface around him still descending, L.A. is now aware that the base is underground and that the guard post was able to go underground as well. The descending stops and red lights are seen in a long tunnel. L.A. starts driving down the tunnel in the transport jeep and is impressed by all he has seen so far. As he approaches, he sees some light at the end of the tunnel. The jeep stops and L.A. get out and looks at the officer waiting for him as he approaches. Specialistsubject- As your memo said, we call each other by our code names. I am Specialistsubject. Nice to meet your acquaintance L.A. L.A.- Same here, sir. Specialistsubject- You and I are to meet with Captain Nautica in his office. L.A.- Well then, I hate to keep him waiting. Specialistsubject and L.A. notice the large variety of Veritechs as they walk from the hangar. L.A. grins as he thinks about being in action. Specialistsubject- Well, we are here mate. L.A. and Specialistsubject enter the room and standing next to a desk was a highly decorated officer known for his bravery and leadership. Specialistsubject and L.A. salute him as he faces them. Nautica- Hello gentleman, at ease. As you have read in your memo or reports, you two passed up other squadrons in order to join this one. For this reason and both of your flying expertise, L.A. you are promoted to Lieutenant and Specialistsubject to Lieutenant Commander. Both Specialistsubject and L.A. look in amazement as they are giving their new ranks. Nautica- I want you to meet the rest of the squadron that have just arrived and get to know each other. After all, they will be taking orders from you and me. You will meet Commander WinDsor later. Commander Fastrax is here, but is occupied working on some Veritechs. That will be all, soldiers. The two young officers salute Captain Nautica and leave the office. Specialistsubject- Okay, that kind of promotions happens everyday. L.A.- Hahahahaha!!! You got that right! L.A. stops and thinks about a horrifying thought. L.A.- Oh no!! Not him!!! Specialistsubject- What is wrong? L.A.- I know Commander Fastrax. I met him at a bar one time. We got along real good. Specialistsubject- Then what is the problem? L.A.- Well, we both got really drunk and got into a bar fight. Of course him and me came out victorious, but I passed out. When I woke up, he had to my Veritech and was making a drunken massacre of the city buildings. He damn near hit everything in the city!!!! Specialistsubject- Haahahahahaaahahahaa!! Oh man, I can see the look on everybody’s faces when he was hitting the buildings!!! Hahahahahahahahaha!! L.A. gives Specialist an angry stare and starts to breathe heavily. Suddenly, another officer is seen walking towards them. He stops and salutes them. L.A. remembers that he was the officer at the guard post. Skyle7- Hello, sirs. I am Sergeant Skyle7. It is nice to meet you. L.A.- Nice disappearing act, Sergeant. Can you pull a rabbit out of your pants? Skyle7- Yep, but I will do that trick only at parties. Right now I am supposed to take you two to meet the other officers. Specialistsubject- Damn, I would have paid to see that rabbit trick. Oh well. All of them continue walking and they enter a waiting room full of young officers chatting and conversating. All of them stand up and salutes. Skyle7- Specialist and L.A., meet privates Nei Circuit, Veritech VF-1J, C_Hunter, Denieru, Bulletproof…Iwish, KilroyLeader, Niscar, B-Wing, MaceWindu10, Esc, Silver Hawk, and Zor Alpha. L.A. careful looks at the band of young, and skilled pilots and gives a little grin. He now knows he made the right choice.
