Chapter 29 - Chapter 19: Rico's Fate and the Drums of War

2 Weeks Before Bug Rock Hits Bueno Aires

Rico Estate...

At a Seat at the Living Room sat a Man Twirling his drink, as he is fuming over the Fact that his son decided to join the military instead of taking over the Family Business, as he stared in the fireplace of the choices he makes as a father....

"Hon, there is a Mail that is for you on your Office table..."

"Thanks Darling..."

As Bill Rico Went to his Study Room, he saw the Letter bearing the Aquila, He tore it off and saw the contents...

"Hon What's This?"

"An Invitation by Alexander Solair the Kid that our Son Met..."

"We could Spend time off; you seem feel stress... and we could use a vacation Hon..."

"And this Invitation we could take time to Relax your Stress and Perhaps that you could take your mind off Rico..."

"I Just Can Believe My Son Left Me Like that..."

"But We Should respect his Choices... Remember You Took a Different Path From your dad, that he wanted you to join the Military, you defy him and started your business."

"Like Father Like Son huh..."

"Come Hon, I better Call My Friends and My Relatives they would love a Trip with us and a Family Bonding time, and Called Our Neighbours to the Invitation, the More the Merrier."

"Fine Darling, Maybe I Could use it to meet my friends and my Business Partners..."

They along with the Entire Neighborhood Packed Up and Get Ready for the Vacation, Children were Happy that they gotten a Vacation as they thanked silently for the Free Day off. Pregnant women got ready for the Vacations as they Nag with their Husbands for their preparations, And Men Are Joking with their Jokes and accompanied by the elderly as they having a good time...

And they were led to a Landing Point and Were Shipped Out to an Orbiting Modified Luna Class that is now converted to a Luxury class Ship, With its Focus to Speed and Comfort as its armor was Halved and Accompanied by Falchion Destroyers and a Modified Luna Class Converted as a Strike Carrier and they headed to Mars, As they reached within Mars Visual Distance a Ramilies-class Starfort Was Shown in the Distance,

Now Modified as a Resort Orbital to Mars and it have Four Quadrants, as it completes with Parks, Restaurants, Childcare Centers, Playgrounds, Arcades, Waterparks, Bars, Hospitals, a Horse Ranch, Malls, Even a Zoo in the Entertainment Sector at the South Quadrant, and a Residential Districts are located in the East Quadrant,

a Mobile Infantry and M.A.Rs Garrisons in the North Quadrant to Assist the Problems and Disputes and possible Pirate Incursion,

and the Trading and Commercial Use is in the West as it is facing towards the Stars and the most Heavily Traffic as Ships from all over the Federation Came to this Place to Trade, the People that were Invited in the V.I.P Treatment having a Blast of a Time, Women are purchasing items and dresses and Children Enjoying Games that were not Implemented in their HomeTown like DOOM etc. While the Husband and males Seek out the Bars and making plans with their Dates,

Until a Fast Gigantic Bug Meteor Was Hurling to earth, gasping as the Local News Predicted the trajectory of the Meteor was Heading to their Home... Causing some of the Weak will to Faint from Shock...

The Moon Defense Platform was Alerted, and they Fired towards the Meteor, they managed to remove some of the Meteor momentum, but the Firepower of the platforms was unable to destroy it and watched helplessly as the Meteor reached into Atmospheric Orbit as the Remains of the Meteor Reached to Buenos Aires, The Gunners of The Moon Platform prayed to the Souls that soon lost...

A Week later Before the Aforementioned Bug Meteor

Such Messages of invitation to Mars was Given to All the Orphanages to visit Mars Wondertainment Headquarters and Hospital Patients that needed Advanced Surgery and Medical Care that was Located in Bueno Aires and they were relocated to Mars, and All Levels of Schools were Given the Choice to have a Paid Free "Tour of Mars" With Parents throughout Argentina, while Some of the Schools rejected the Offer, While Many more Institutions took Up on the Offer and the people that took the Invitation Later Called it "the Day of Salvation" after the Bueno Aires Disaster...

Night Before the Fatal Accident....

As Rico Is Sleeping in the Bunkbeds, His toy Beside him suddenly Activated its Hidden Protocols... As it Carefully removed Rico Arms From him... As It Headed to the Windows to escape from the Barracks and Avoid the Night Monitor that roam the premises to find anyone that is Goofing Off...and Avoiding Patrol Dogs that wants to Chew it, But it was Found out by 2 dogs that was mishandled as the Handlers took a quick Nap they rushed toward the toy, the Space Marine braced itself in front of the Wall and faced the Rush of the Dogs until at the Last moment the Toy grabbed and tossed the Dogs, Smack faced into the wall, whimpering and alerted the Dog Handlers that waken up and Scolded them for being too Noisy that awakened them from sleeping and the Toy took advantage of the Chaos of the Matter and Sprinted until it reached to the Armory

He Looked through the Numbers and Group that is Participation of the Live Exercises that Take Place tomorrow and He Saw Serial Number of the Helmet of the Man That Change Rico Life... After Examining the Helmet and Fixing the Helmet, The Space marine Toy Carefully Retraced its Steps and Stood, In Front of the Barracks and the Door was Opened by the Toys that Other Recruits Carried with them... And the Door Was Closed behind them, And the Night Monitor Nearby was Befuddled why there was No one At the Barracks Going out on a Nightly Stroll and the Door was Opened... He Made Mental Note, that He Should ask the Base Engineer to Take a look at the Door Tomorow...

The Time of the Live Exercise

Johnny Rico now a Squad Leader is Leading His Men Spectacularly In the eyes of the Observers that is Rating him... During that Moment When His Fated Moment of Almost Kicked Out to Washout Lane, when one of His Soldiers Couldn't Fix his Helmet and Begged that Rico to Fixed it and nearly ended his career with his death is no longer an issue, The Soldier no longer Felt Discomfort In his Helmet and Rico Squad Managed to pass the High Score by a Margin... And When He wanted to Tell his Parents that he passed... A Group of Trainees Rushing Towards the Public T.V as the News Blared out that Buenos Aires was Destroyed and Millions Were Destroyed by a Bug Meteor and M.A.Rs and the Mobile Infantry of the Earth Branch Took Immediately Relief Efforts to Find the People that Are Still Surviving from the Blast Radius and To them in a Center that was Immediately Raised up to Cater the Injured and Doing Census Check, as Blood and Personal Belongings was Being Found by the Minute, Broken Toys, Shattered Picture Frames, Body Parts... And Federation as a Whole was Screaming Blood for the Lives that was Lost...

Rico stood frozen amongst the Crowd that is filled with rage, fearing that he might have Lost his Parents, despite his father disagreed his mother reluctantly allowed him to go... they were his Parents... He Joined the Group that went to the Communications Room as they were Calling their Parents, Siblings, Lovers and Friends... Some were Found alive in the Emergency Centers that M.A.Rs Had Built... Some Were Sobbing Uncontrollably as they kept Connecting their Communications that unable to Connect to a black screen as they wailed and broke down that their ones that lost, will no longer pick up the Call...

Rico Felt somewhat hesitant... will his parents ended up the same as the people that unable to connect? As He Punched in the Family Phone Numbers fearing that they will no longer Picked Up the call... After a Few Beeps that Seems Like a Lifetime to Him... It Got Picked Up...

He Stood Silent as His Parents was Alive and Well and they were Onboard on a Luxury Cruise when it happened...

Before his parents disagreed with his Decision, now they agreed and bless him with his decision that he was in the military, if he could have stayed and worked in his father choice... He wouldn't make it...

Author Here School is Tough These Days... Seriously That Amount of Homework is like a Flood and Finishing it, is like Stemming the Tide of Tyrranids with a Frying Pan... And By the Throne I am Glad it was a Auramite Frying Pan

One of my Readers told me to Give Rico Parents to a Trip... Most Likely more Realistic than my Idea Making Entire Argentina population into Branches of M.A.Rs to Hide from the Bug Meteor, and make the Suspicions from the Federation towards Alexander by overstepping their Boundaries...

Hopefully I am able to complete finalizing the Finalizing Drafts of the Plans for the Battle of Klendathu... and I will make a 1-2 Side Chapters Tomorrow... If Possible Sorry for the Missing In Action...

I am Aware I can't save them all...
