Dualla stepped forward to where he could speak directly to Cotter without being overheard.
"The Cylons are sparing Terra for a reason. They want it I've seen something like this three times before. Once, on Libron, with Commander Wagner and Colonel Donovan while I was on Galactica." Clayton did not go into detail of the labs below Libron where humans were being used as guinea pigs in some twisted experiments that bore the signature of SciClops, nor did he mention Sci's own experiment with TwoPair. Then there was the Cylon planet that was almost a rebuild of the lab on Libron, except at a larger scale. Galactica had stabbed into Cylon-controlled space and nuked it much as the Colonies had been attacked.
"The long and the short of it is they can't have Terra turned into a radioactive cinder. What I don't know is why. The Models created by the Tighs are immune to ionizing radiation. It's almost as if they want humans to still be able to inhabit the surface. But then they try to kill us through more conventional means. There's more to it than I can surmise, but it's going to be something big, and we're still all in mortal danger."

Taking the proferred hand, Clayton knew that he'd been dismissed.
"Uh, you too. Thanks for the lift." He was escorted to the ramp at the back of the vehicle by the soldier who'd directed him to the General.
"Thanks for the help, Private."
"Good luck, Colonel." They exchanged salutes, though Dualla was not in uniform anymore.
He stood on the rubble-strewn street, looking around. "Okay, at least I was dropped off at the front door." He proceeded to stride toward the World Assembly building.

*Deep Underground of Corinth*
In a facility only a few know of, Terran Intelligence Operatives ran through operations while the battle raged over them as they worked on sending data to the Darous Office. Sitting in front of a computer screen, one of the Operatives noticed an irregular activity coming from the files they had recently got from the capital database. Calling over a superior, they soon overran the safeties unknown that they just activated a spider virus as it began opening all the filed in Terran Intelligence. Where 1 had opened up, now hundreds to thousands were opening up as the protocols took over destroying everything in its path. Noticing it, the Director of Terran Intelligence turned to his men as they sent the last packet to Darous; "That damn Seven has brought the end to us...all Operatives get to the Darous Office now while we try to save what's left of the data we have..."
Cut off, the facilities emergency procedures activated as the main office of Terran Intelligence imploded sealing its fate underground but leaving all the Operatives above ground to make it to Darous.

*Flying about the city helping with the clean up, looking up watch guns being mounted to building. My men doing patrols everywhere, tanks roaming the streets along side cars. More check points setting up as it become routine, after watching the skies and recording flight routine's of raiders. Noticing one just flying away from the city limit's where Battlestar become stationary. As the raider then jumps into space, finding it odd but then returning to my men.*

They exchanged salutes, though Dualla was not in uniform anymore. He stood on the rubble-strewn street, looking around. "Okay, at least I was dropped off at the front door." He proceeded to stride toward the World Assembly building. Judith stood there, watching the Colonial officer and General Cotter exchange their words. She wanted to step closer but knew this was a military issue. Once they had finished and Cotter had left, Judith walked up to the Colonial officer. "So tell me Colonel Dualla, what do YOU think these Cylons are up to? I couldn't help but overhear some of your conversation and I must admit, something is amiss. I do know from my sources at the Terran military that these Cylon humanoid models have been working on creating a Cylon-human hybrid and have actually been able to "breed" a couple of hundred thousand of them. Perhaps that is the key to all of this, perhaps THEY need this planet." Judith actually knew more than she was letting on. You don't become a Chief Justice without having your eggs in many baskets. She didn't want to let it out that her contacts went far beyond the Terran military, not just yet. Besides, Cotter was still a bit of a puzzle to her and she wanted to keep some of her eggs safe, for now. "If there is anything I can do to assist you Colonel, let me know. Since our so-called Terran representative is now missing, that makes me the senior ranking civilian official here on Terra, at least until someone else comes forward."

Greer felt the lurch in the ship the the lights feel dead, he knew what this was "cylon tactical virus shut down the......" it was to late they where hit and already falling toward the Corinth city, Greer got up to the front and watched as the pilot tried to pull out out the fall, her hands where fused to the stick from the electric energy burst, "try to set her down there on some dirt the out skirts of the city" the gear banged around along with the 4 other marines, Greer looked at shay "we could still make it" he watched the other four raptors struggle in the air the plummet to the ground one landed in a building the others far off into the city. He could see the heavy raiders flay over and smoke from the city "radio the command post tell them the cylons broke through and the second advance team is dead in the air" he click his radio "this is Sgt greer, advance team beta is down i repeat we are going down, the cylons are taking Corinth city, we where hit by...." the ground got closer and he braced for impact. Shay watched as the pilot tried her best to maneuver the ship for landing. Nothing seemed to work, and she turned in her seat to look back at the others. "Brace for impact!"No sooner had she got the words out, the ship went down. Hard. It tossed the crew around, and finally slid to a stop in a small field just outside of the Corinth City limits. Shay unfastened herself and rubbed her head, feeling a cut above her eye. The Ensign turned slightly to check on the other pilot, who was dead. The impact must have been worse than she thought. She called out to the others, in too much pain at the moment to turn and check. "Is everyone alright? Gods damn, report in!"Greer reached for his leg and pulled him self from under neath the Eco station he Nodede at the two marines next to him it was pvt parcen and corporal deen He checked the vitals on the other three men and got nothing he hung his head the herd the voice of ensign shay. "yeah where here I lost three how are you in the pilot" Greer reach for his weapons and the ammunition as the private opened the hatch. Bullets banged off the sides Greer could see two cylons approaching, he stuck his rifle out the hatch and fired, the two marines did the same. "Keep fire on them, looks like they came to clean up whats left, ensign. Can you move" Greer made his way to the cockpit and cut her crash webbing loose.

Shay struggled out of her seat with Greer's help and held a hand up over the cut above her eye. She shook her head; "I think I will be okay. The pilot's dead though." The Ensign frowned solemnly at the sight of the three dead marines. She reached for her sidearm, keeping it close as the other two marines finished off the two approaching centurions.
Turning to Greer, Shay leaned on him slightly for support. "Damn. Have you heard any more from Colonel Briggs?" Unsure if they should proceed into Corinth or head for the XO's position, Jansen waited for an answer.

*Anther space time window opens spitting the Black Bird out right over above Terra. Reaching over flipping on stealth mode reducing engines. Switching on plasma screening, the electron generator cycles up. Creating an ionized a bubble around the Blackbird Mk. II and thus a plasma bubble is generated. Narrowing the engine flaps, cycling up the thrusters. Making anther small jump in over Ensign Shays Raptor Bri then opens all batteries and targeting all Cylons and Centurions, as she opens fire I then reach down cycling up the nose tip left stabilizer then the back right stabilizer. Sending up into a spin whirling around and around sending bullets flying killing them all and any in coming. Cutting the stabilizer's as I level the ship out* "Canopy open"*The canopy un-seals release air as it folds back, leaning forward standing up. Reach over grasping to opening as I leap out falling down onto the Raptors haul with a clunk sound. Maybe starling Greer and shay hehe. Crossing my arm's as the Nanites open on the side allowing me to grasp my SIW7 pistols. Pulling out my hand guns as the Nanite close the suit, taking a two steps leaping off the Raptor. Landing on the wing with my back before the hatch, Squeezing the Triggers. Sending the bullets spiraling out the end of the barrels slicing through the air embedding into two Centurions heads laying on the ground struggling to fire in the Raptor. Cocking my head around Scanning the area, as the HUD pin points the Terra ship to the North East. Looking around pin scanning the dead as words CLEAR flash on the inside of the visor.* Shay struggled out of her seat with Greer's help and held a hand up over the cut above her eye.

*Standing still as I look out upon Terra, pulling up the comm systems.*
"Yogi to Reaper come in, I have got some bad news. It pains me to think about it, Captain Kona has betrayed us. Guess the wait for Playtime in his coma has taken a toll. She is back maybe as the leader on the Cylons. So by that said Admiral Middleton has call all Colonial ships away for now. So Place someone in charge that wants to stay and return to Atlantia. Were just outside the Corinth city limits, Yogi out."
*Bri lowers the ship as I hope back in, veering up heading for the Atlantia.*

She jumped at the sound of another ship flying overhead. Once it was out of sight, she looked over at Greer. Shoot anything that doesn't look friendly, right?" Winking, she took up position at the tree line and tried to think up a game plan. "I'll be okay, let's do what we came here to do."

They reached the tree line when the rain started to fall,they found cover in some rocks ducking the cylon patrols."Quick learner" he smiled and pulled the map from his vest, took a quick glance then stuck it back. "ok our objective is to get out of from behind enemy lines and regroup with the other ground forces" one of his men handed him the eagle eyes and he scanned the area ahead the gave them back. "first lets make you mobile ensign" he pulled the med kit and and injected her with some adrenalin and a painkiller hypo spray he looked up at her as he warped the bandage around her leg. you should feel like a super solder for at lease 5 hours, he tucked the painkiller hypo into her flight jacket pocket then threw his ruck on and jammed a fresh clip into his M-4. "lets move its about to get dark". the sky was grey and and the forest grew silent nothing but rain drops against the plants and trees.

*Looking up signaling to Bri, heading around the nose reaching up to the outer haul ladder releasing the lock un-folding it. Lifting my right foot, reaching up grasping the runt stepping up as her canopy opens.*
"Hunny head to Atlantia"
*Watching the canopy open and fold back, Bri flies around swinging over Greer and his team as I look down. Hanging on to the ladder as we take off, easing around. Looking out at the hill side then over at Corinth city, up to the Atlantia watching Reaper pulling in.*
