Getting a Technology System in Modern Day



NORAD Cheyenne Mountain Complex, Colorado.

The specialists and soldiers at NORAD were engaged in doing their usual routine which included monitoring the radar and satellite data and keeping an eye on whether Russia will be playing their usual game of sending T-95 bombers to the Pacific airspace of the US and Canada.

ALERT!!!! 

"HIGH HEAT EXPLOSION DETECTED - PACIFIC OCEAN - EDEN-ESPARIA BORDER" 

A loud notification was heard throughout the situation monitoring room as the massive screen in front of them displayed the information coming together with the alert coming from the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) satellite constellation. The system showed what it suspected to be a high heat explosion it caught on its extremely highly sensitive infrared cameras loaded on the satellites constellation.

The computer systems in a complex began displaying crucial information about the detected high-heat explosion. This information included the location and other relevant details to help the specialists, soldiers and the commanders to assess the situation rapidly.

Following the protocol, the command center then started notifying the higher authorities and military leadership using the secure communication channels.

In Russia, a similar situation was happening as their early warning information system from their Missile Attack Warning System (SPRN), situated in the Russian Aerospace Forces had received the alert regarding the explosion.

China, too, was not much far behind as their incomplete Yaogan series of satellite constellations didn't fall much behind in detecting the heat from the massive explosion, alerting them of the events that were going on between Eden and Esparia in the middle of the night.

This incident marked as the start of attracting the massive eyeballs on the ongoing war theater where countries scrambled to find out who hit whom and exactly how were they even able to accomplish that feat of detonating such a massive explosion, enough to trigger their satellites, all of those countries who were in the know started changing the orbits of their imaging satellites so that it could pass over Eden in an attempt on imaging the location where the explosion had took place, trying to piece the whole picture as to what was going on. And at the same time, they were trying to establish communication between the two countries where the detonation had taken place, to understand the detonation that had occurred at their border.

.....

"Oh my god," the helicopter pilot exclaimed in response to the explosion that had taken place as a result of him pulling the trigger and launching the bomb.

'Yep, they had come for it, but that was definitely a deserved overkill.' He thought to himself when he remembered how they belittled his nation's military and had tried to threaten them in their very own territorial waters.

As for the soldiers in the surviving boats, despite being grateful that they had survived, now they were also guaranteed with a burden of a lifetime of PTSD. Most of them had their ears bleeding due to being in such close proximity to the massive sound and shockwave, a shockwave that carried the last voices of their now minced soldiers.

In their eyes, the arrogance they once carried had completely vanished, with its place occupied by horror and fear that could be seen deep within them. Their will to fight had turned into a history and the expectation of glory and medal had forced them to question as to how they even thought that they would be winning the war in the first place.

[Hello to the remaining survivors, if you want to surrender, now is the time and anyone who doesn't show his intent to do so will be visited by a second package] Athena sent out a second announcement before the Pilot fired a row of bullets to act as a warning and thanks to the guns being made of railgun, it managed to reach the debris field where even now the debris of more than fifteen boats could be seen as it was slowly sinking with the bodies of all the soldiers littered everywhere in pieces, one looks and the others surviving boats finding themselves in not a good condition.

Upon hearing the announcement, all the soldiers immediately ran to the nearest radio they could find to announce their surrender without showing a hint of trying to fight back.

And just like that, a war where the enemy expected that they would win victory with a landslide, sadly ended with the victory of the weaker side, simply by detonating a single bomb, taking with it the entire high-level commanding structure, leaving only the boat leaders in the commanding ladder and now using their commanding power, they were taking the boats through Eden's water, following the instruction given to them in order to surrender their forces.

This was a war where an entire Navy fleet fought and lost against a single helicopter of the defending nation without facing any retaliatory fire in return.

...…

A few minutes before the Pilot had been ordered to send "TDR bomb" a skirmish on the land border had erupted by the rain of artillery fire from Esparia's forces as the vehicles carrying soldiers were at a hold, waiting for the chaos caused by the artillery fire to disorient the soldiers before they started making their moves.

Three kilometers away from the nearest vehicles of Esparia, fifteen among the fifty soldiers could be seen lying down in cover at different distances from each other, their guns aiming and matching in the direction where the vehicle fleet was situated, the sky above was covered by artillery shells which passed and were heading to their border.

[Take out the commanding structure] Athena ordered, using the long-range data collected from "Henry's eyes'' and integrating what it into the headgears the soldiers were wearing, highlighting the people she wanted to be removed to elicit surrender from the enemy forces.

The moment the highlighting was done, the soldiers wasted no time in pulling the trigger in unison followed by the sounds of bullets leaving their electromagnetic acceleration barrels, finally embarking on their last journey for reducing a few souls from the living side of the universe.

A few seconds later, the entire high-level commanding structure, that had been in the situation room within a tent that was situated about six kilometers away from the fifteen soldiers, preparing to watch and direct how the entire situation takes place, ceased to breathe, severing their access to the living realm. The bullets marked the first objects to take human life, with the artillery fired by their soldiers being ranked second, having killed 23,532 ants that had their nests on the base of Eden.

The rest thirty-five of the fifty soldiers had their guns aimed at the vehicles that carried people on the next line of command within the massive convoy of military vehicles, waiting for the artillery rain to subside. 

Their headgear turned red, highlighting a few people it deemed important enough for them to die before the rest of the fleet.

"BANG" A silent, synchronous sound echoed in the loud night going unnoticed except by the ones who fired it…
