-JTF Camp

Conrado:Jeez

Aiden:Something wrong, Conrado?

Conrado:Fox Boy has been always keeps on cooking something new

David:Don't worry about it, besides, even the Marines love the Devolon

-Gallian Camp

Varrot: Thanks in part to Squad 7 and the JTF, the Great Vasel Bridge is back in our hands.
That pushed the front line back, forcing the Empire to gather forces in central
Gallia. 

Faldio: Does this mean we're headed that way as well?

Varrot: The army will take that front. Meanwhile, the militia will head south.
(pointing to her map) Our next target is here, in the Kloden area. 

Welkin: The Kloden Wildwood...I was there last summer taking soil samples. It's
a dense forest with plenty of hills and valleys. It's hard to get around in
there.

Faldio: What's our strategic objective there, Captain?

Varrot: The Empire has set up a supply base there to fuel their invasion of
central Gallia.

Faldio: I see. So if we seize the supply base, we cut off the flow of supplies
moving north.

Varrot: Precisely. The Third Regiment's objective is to take that base. All
squads are to prepare for woodland combat and await orders. Good luck. 
Dismissed.

Faldio: Woodland combat...what a nightmare!

Welkin: What do you mean?

Faldio: The woods dull your sense of direction, and poor roads make for slow
advances. This'll be our toughest operation yet.

Welkin: Maybe so, but deeper in the woods you have a better chance of spotting
rare foliage. There's one kind of insectivorous plant in Kloden called the
moondew that can suck a--

Faldio: All right, I get it! You really do have a one-track mind, you know that?

Welkin: I'm saying nature isn't just a burden. We might find the key to victory
in the woods.

Faldio: All right. I'll keep a lookout for your key while we're slogging along.
Hopefully your plant won't have eaten it.

[The fortress of Ghirlandaio, occupied by Imperial forces. Meanwhile, in one
of its rooms, the Imperial commanders have a meeting. One of them, Berthold
Gregor, taps his fingers impatiently. His look is unchangingly stern.]

Berthold Gregor: Gallia's mongrels have reclaimed Vasel Bridge. Are the men of
our defensive units cowards? This loss is a stain on the Emperor's honor. 
Useless fools.

[There are other people in the room: Selvaria Bles, a gray-haired, red-eyed
woman, and Radi Jaeger, who is leaning back in his chair at the moment.]

Radi Jaeger: I hear the enemy crossed the river in tanks. And whoever's leading
them is no fool.

Gregor: On the contrary, this was a fluke. These are peasants, nothing more.
Peasants and barbarians. How could they be anything else?

Jaeger: If birthright is all it takes to win a battle, you must find war so
very boring.

[Gregor growls menacingly. Selvaria stands up.]

Selvaria Bles: The issue here is Gallia's resistance and how to end it swiftly
and decisively. 

Jaeger: Exactly. They'll use their victory at Vasel Bridge as footing for a 
counterstrike in central Gallia.

Selvaria: How should we proceed? What says Your Grace?

[Emperor Maximilian is sitting at a desk apart from the other officers. He is
robed resplendently in white.]

Emperor Maximilian: We will extinguish these flames. Our course is clear: The
Gallian army must be crushed.

[Maximilian stands up, and so do the other officers.]

Maximilian: We will require reinforcements. They will be sent to central Gallia.
Now then, the route of supply through Kloden has to be made unshakeable. Gregor,
see to a...restructuring of our central forces, then you will continue to press
northward.

Gregor: Sir.

Maximilian: We will head to Barious. Selvaria, be so kind as to accompany Us 
there.

Selvaria: With pleasure. And to the ends of the Earth, your Grace.

Maximilian: The Kloden base and supply lines, see to them, Jaeger. They need protecting. Gallia may have already dispatched troops to the south. Therefore,
make haste to Kloden.

Jaeger: Of course. Leave it to me, your Grace.

-In the Kloden Wildwood

Rosie: What are we doing? Remind me, whose idea was it to come out here anyway?
Enough with the trees already.

Largo: You can say that again. Woods are so thick you can't tell up from down
with these trees.

[Welkin is pacing about, looking for something. Suddenly he sees it...some
tiny brown seedlike objects.]

Welkin: Here we go...

Rosie: Hey great, what did he find, a map in the dirt?

[Largo shrugs. Alicia steps up to Welkin.]

Welkin: Alicia, hold on to these for me, will you?

[He puts the little brown seeds in her hand.]

Alicia: Sure Welkin. What are these? Some kind of nuts?

Welkin: No, actually they're Longbeard goat droppings.

Alicia (tossing them to the ground): Ahhh! Gross! You made me hold poo? Are you crazy?!

Isara: Hey Welks, did you find something useful?

Welkin: Come here. Take a look at this.

Largo: Hmm. The grass has been trampled down, looks like. What's the deal with that?

Welkin: An animal trail. With any luck this could be our way out. Animals have
a natural instinct to find the most efficient path. That's why the grass is
trampled down. They snap off the branches, they eat the grass. As a result,
they clear a perfect trail.

Rosie: So if we make like goats and follow it the path will take us through.

Welkin: The enemy supply base should be nearby. This is where we'll start our
operation.

[Rosie is singing to herself.]

Alicia: That's really nice Rosie. What song is that? It's so pretty.

Rosie: Hm? Oh, just a song I sang, back in the day.

Alicia: Oh, you used to be a singer? I didn't know that!

Rosie (blushing): Ha! You paint a much prettier picture than it was. I used
to sing at a bar in my town.

Alicia: Still, that song was really pretty. I'd love to hear the whole thing
sometime.

Rosie: Heh. Maybe I'll put on a little show one of these days.

[Suddenly, a rustle in the grass.]

Isara: We're not alone here.

Alicia: I'll go investigate. Put your hands in the air!

[It's a little pig with wings, a Porcavian later named Hans.]

Hans: Moink?!

Alicia: It's...a pig?

Isara: It looks like a porcavian piglet.

Conrado:(What's seeing in his head)

[Alicia picks up the Porcavian.]

Alicia: What's your story? Get separated from your mom? Aww...

Welkin: I'll take a look further in.

[He gives a sudden gasp as he searches.]

Alicia: What? What did you find?

Welkin: There must have been a skirmish here...it looks like a stray bullet hit his mother.

Largo: Even out here the war's still claimin' lives.

Alicia: You lost your family too, huh, little guy? Left all alone...

Hans (sadly): Moink...

Welkin: Well Alicia, does he want to come with us?

Alicia: What? Can we?

Welkin: We're the militia! Every Gallian has the right to join.

Alicia: You hear that? As of today you're a member of Squad 7, little guy.

Hans (with love): Moink? Moink!
_________________________________________

Welkin: The tank will follow the road to the south. Team two, take the trail to
the base!

[The Edelweiss and infantry support advances on the base, while the flanking team takes the western path. While the JTF Units And Vehicles are hidden, only IFVs are with the JTF]

Isara: Anti-tank gunnery reported on the north bank. We're in danger while it
remains, Welks.

Welkin: We'll have to hope team two can take it out from behind.

Keith:Don't worry, i got this *Loads.70 FKB Rounds to it's FKB-88*

Isara:What weapon is that?!

Largo:It looks more like a Tank Gun than a regular gun…

Conrado:It's the same weapon from Vasel, and trust me, y'all know and see what happened back in Vasel.

Keith:David!

David:Yeah?

Keith:Yeet me up!

Rosie:Yeet what?!

David:Okay! *Picks Keith up and throws him up high*

Rosie:That's crazy!!

BANG! BANG!

BOOM! BOOM!

Explosions erupted as Keith has hit the Anti-Tank Gunneries were destroyed and he lands back down safely.

Keith:All clear, move out!

Isara:Y'know what... im not gonna ask...

Keith:All Units... Initiate Nam Tactics

[All JTF went to hiding smoothly]

Keith:Good luck, Welkin... not to worry... we got your backs [Disappear]

Rosie:How on earth can they even do that?!

I. Soldier 1:These Gallians are not giving up!

RATATATATATATATATATATATATATA!

Many Imperial Soldiers were cut dowm by the JTF ambushes, as they reach the supply base with the Squad 7
_________________________________________

Jaeger: I got here as soon as I could, but...apparently not soon enough.

Imperial Soldier: General Jaeger! You've brought reinforcements?

Jaeger: A few, but this place is almost surrounded. We'll lose both the base
and supplies if we hold here. Listen, I want you all to pack up what you can
and get ready to evacuate.

Imperial Soldier: What will you do, General?

Jaeger: Buy you guys some time. Just leave the enemy to me.

[Jaeger's tank has arrived on the scene to the northern camp.]

[By now, however, it is too late and the Gallians and JTF have infiltrated the base. Jaeger]

Conrado:<All units, Enemy Heavy Tank Spotted>

Tony:<Copy that>

Aleya:<Rog>

Jessia:<I see it. Engaging> Hanz! You see that tank get ze Panzerfaust!

Hanz:Jawolh!

[Hanz leaves]

Keith:<All Units, I ran out of .70 FKB Rounds, Engaging Close Range Combat>

Aiden:<Flanking, were taking their reinforcement from the rear> Marines! Weapons free! Fire!!

The UAC Marines open fire on the Imperial Soldiers catching them off-guard

I. Soldier:Ambush!! They're coming from behind!

The Imperial Army fights back

Hanz:I'm back.

Jessia:Hanz did you bring ze Panzerfaust?

Hanz:Nein! I brought the Panzers

[2 Tiger Ia and 1 M1 Abram appear, Just 2 Tanks]

Lena:<I see it, AP loaded, FIRE!>

BANG!!

Whisssssss

CLANK!! *Ricochet*

[The Shot from the Tiger I was a ricochet]

Jaeger:What the?! Where did that shot came from?!

Lina:<I got it! AP! FIRE!!>

BANG!!

Whsssssss

CRUNK! BOOM!!

[Another shot from the Tiger I of Lina hit the Lupus's MG ended up destroying it]

Jaeger:What the!? [Glimpse] There it is! Return fire!!

BANG!!

whsss

CLANK!! *Ricochet*

[The shot from the Lupus was a futile Ricochet]

Lina:<Warpig! Take the shot!>

Warpig:<Roger that, Firing AP>

CRUNK!!! KA-BANG!!!

[The Lupus was hit critically injuring Jaeger and his crew, he has little choice now but to pull out, although his men are doing their best.]

Jaeger: That should just about do it, (Coughing).

Imperial Guard: General Jaeger! Base camp has been occupied! The relay from
base patrol says they barely got out with most of the supplies. Good. But I've got to
hand it to them. Gallia sent a real fox into these woods. Well, it's not a 
supply base anymore if there are no supplies. We're all done here.

Jaeger:Good, all units pull back!! Retreat! Highspeed!
_________________________________________

Isara: Incoming transmission, Welks. They've taken the base, but most of the
enemy already fled.

Welkin: One step ahead...they timed that perfectly. I'm just glad that backup
unit arrived late. Still, we've completed our mission. Nice work out there, 7s!

Keith:<All JTF Units, Regroup>
_________________________________________

Varrot: Well done, soldiers. The operation was a success.

Alicia: Another victory for Welkin Gunther.

Welkin: Nope, not this time. All the glory goes to this little guy.

Hans: Moink?!

Alicia: Way to go Hans. First day on the job and you're already a hero!

Welkin: Our success today was thanks to the animals living here in these woods.

Hans: Moink moink!

Largo: So, uh...who named the bacon Hans?

Welkin: Captain Varrot, I'd like to introduce Squad 7's newest addition, Hans.

Varrot: Hans, I hear you performed admirably today. I expect great things from
you. Dismissed.

Hans: Maioink!

Keith:(Mind) Hmmm... Lechon
