The War That Transcends Timelines - 91 Captured
Time: estimated 12 hours after fainting
Location: Unknown
POV: Kyle’s
I try to move my hands but to no avail, pain assaults me as I move. I grit my teeth as I hold back the urge to scream.
”Mhm, It seems our ‘Wanderer’ is awake.” The same voice who shot me said.
I look up, only to see a black silhouette in front of me, ”Why…” I said hoarsely.
”Isn’t it easy to understand, we don’t like the Confederation, so we don’t like Wanderers. You just had to be one,” The voice said jokingly before continuing, ”I do like to get some more information out of you before I finish you off, so be nice and obedient and I might make your death painless.”
A grin appeared on my face as I looked at the Silhouette,
”Try me Bastard, I will suffer a thousand deaths before telling you anything about the Organisation,” I said with determination in my eyes.
”A pity.” The person replied flatly before signalling another person to enter, which tools probably not meant to heal people.
”Stop!” I shouted hoarsely, ”Why? Who are you!” I demanded.
” ‘Marshall’, Over the aeons of time many empires have risen and fallen. But 3 have stood the tests of time and are the largest in existence. Two you are aware of, the other is not concerned with mundane wars. Now, you must understand, that if Empires can control space, why not time? Only 1 Empire can do that at a very great cost. But no cost is too great if it means killing you here and now.” The Person said before continuing to walk away.
”I HAVE DONE NOTHING TO YOU!” I shouted, angered by the person’s posture. Pain assaults me again after shouting.
The person turned around with a solemn aurora, ”You might not have done anything now, but I guarantee you that you will bring calamity to everyone in the future. I will make sure that your organisation will suffer from its own flaws.”
‘IMPOSSIBLE! HOW DARE THEY!’ I curse them, ‘Time travel?!? Utter Bullshit!’ I shouted in my heart, angered by their explanation.
”Stay still ‘Marshall’ and enjoy the suffering.” The torturer said.

Time: 5 Minutes after the Kidnapping of Kyle
Location: HMS Dreadnought
POV: Rudolf’s
The captain and I stood on the bridge looking through their Binoculars to see anything through the thick clouds.
”ENEMY PLANES INCOMING!” A forward observer reported.
Confusion covered the faces of the Captain and me, ”What is the Radar’s situation?” We said in unison.
We contacted the Radar room, but no one replied, ”This is very odd, I have a bad feeling about this.” The Captain said worriedly. ”The Marshall went to the Radar room 10 minutes ago!” I just remembered.
”I’ll go, you must not let any soldier near the radar room!” I ordered the captain before running off to the radar section. ‘If the men find out that the Marshall is kidnapped or dead…” I shudder while thinking about it, ”calamity will befall us.”
I run as fast as I could towards the Radar room, on my way I saw bodies upon bodies, all dead, faces of confusion and despair on their faces. ‘Who could have done this?!?’ Many thoughts run through my mind. The airlock hid the bodies from view, as not many people come here besides those that work in the sector. But everyone is lying motionless on the ground.
Worry clouded my thoughts as I ran faster towards the Radar room, more and more bodies lie in front of me. ”Airlock 2 opened!” The captain shouted over the intercom to warn me,
‘NO!’ I could already guess something bad has happened. ”STOP!” I shouted at the silhouette at the edge of the airlock whilst pointing my pistol towards him or her.
I could see Kyle. Barely breathing in the arms of the Silhouette, ”KYLE!” I shouted, but there came no reaction out of him.
My hairs stood up straight as the Silhouette spoke, ”You are lucky I ran out of bullets. Much regards. The Union.” And with that, the Silhouette jumped out of the Zeppelin. I ran towards the edge, seeing no one through the thick amount of clouds.
”Commander! What happened!” A group of Gold Skulls stood at the entrance to the airlock, looking worriedly towards me. ‘They can’t see this.’ I acted quickly, but it was already too late. The gold skulls saw the tanto, Katana and Pistol of the Marshall on the ground, blood all around it. It was not hard to conclude what happened.
”DO NOT LOOK!” I ordered the men, but it was to no avail. Their eyes turned bloodshot, anger, furry and hate clouded their thoughts. This was an effect trained deeply into every person’s mind of the Organisation. In the case of Kyle dying or being unable to lead we had to stop morale from plummeting, the solution was to convert the fear and worry into anger and resentment. But it seems it has backfired into us, as they will no longer follow specific orders, the only thing they follow is revenge and avenge the marshall.
”ALL MEN STOP THE GOLD SKULLS!” I ordered the men just running towards the airlock, They reacted quickly but it was too late. It spread like wildfire, the kidnapping or death of the Marshall. ‘I must get to the captain!’ I started to run towards the Bridge, ‘As long as he keeps his rationality I can stop this from escalating.’ I thought quickly.
But when I was halfway my biggest worry came true,
”THIS IS THE CAPTAIN SPEAKING! OUR MARSHALL HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED BY FOUL UNIONISTS! IN THE NAME OF THE ORGANISATION THEY MUST BE PURGED AND KILLED TO THE VERY LAST MAN!” The captain shouted angrily over the intercom when warning systems sounded all over the ship,
Anger was in the air, people were running with crazed looks on their faces, it was too late, their own indoctrination backfired on them.
”Warning, Bomb bay doors opening. Warning, main Batteries targeting multiple metropolises. Warning, secondary batteries targeting Military installations. Warning, Sarin Gas bombs targets acquired. Warning, all military systems activated, total war mode engaged…”
I just stopped running, Manchester was only a warning to their invasion, which with we had a reason to hit as they attacked Geneva. But massacring all people in major Metropolises in England will make us the biggest villain in the world.
