Flying over the City and making notes of all the destruction still visible the stealth Raider settled into the atmosphere and positioned itself where the instructions said to wait for the 'package'.

Felt like they were almost flying on the ground as the humvee with Sgt. Lewis at the wheel making their get away from the Bunker and the unavoidable charges waiting therein. Jasline grabbed the sidebar with her right hand and bounced along over the holes in the road from the bombs.
"Oh man, these roads are terrible!" she pushed her hair out of her face as they hit another pothole. "Where are we headed?" she had no idea where she should go or what was expected from her now. Her mission was successful - sort of. Would she be welcomed or shunned because she failed to actually kill the President?
Suddenly a cat ran out from the side of the street making Sgt. Lewis swerve and she thought for sure they were gonna tip over. He corrected the swerve and settled the humvee back into line. They were almost out of the City at this point but the damage was pretty clear all around them. Buildings had been bombed and the power grid was spotty at best. Though crews could be seen working on it around the city.
They drove at break neck speed down the dusty road to the wooded area outside of the City. He finally turned off and drove over raw ground making his own road til they reached a cave. "We have arrived at our destination, Miss. Come with me. We are getting you to safety and away from this mess." They got out of the humvee and he helped her step over the brush til they reached the inside area and they spotted a Cylon Raider. As they approached the Raider scanned them and apparently they passed security as the Raider opened up and they climbed inside.
Once in the Raider seats tightened around their hips holding them in place and lifted off. Immediately JUMPING out of atmosphere.

All across the city, sirens began wailing, the type of sirens alerting to an attack. As citizens and military personnel looked up and all around for what could possibly be a reason for the sirens going off, a sudden flash of light high above the city burst, then within seconds, everything-buildings, trees, people-were hit with a massive shock wave.
For a good five minutes, there was nothing but the deafening sound of buildings collapsing and what could only be described as a massive wind storm, like the sound of a hundred thousand aircraft flying overhead. Then, silence. The scene was nothing short of total destruction of the city, although a few dozen sturdier buildings still stood. What had once been a great city was now mostly piles of rubble. The dead would number on the hundreds of thousands, the injured and wounded many times that number.

The atmospheric detonation of a non-nuclear weapon was used against the City of Corinth and which was fired from the surface, thus being detected by DRADIS seconds before it detonated. The weapon used was a NON-NUCLEAR weapon, a vacuum type bomb that destroyed most buildings and structures in the city (homes, residences, smaller constructed buildings) but left standing more sturdier structures (government compound, university buildings, power plant, heavier constructed buildings). This weapon was a HIGH PRESSURE weapon that when detonated as an air burst, brought down upon the city immense pressure that essentially flattened buildings and bridges and structures, also killing pretty much any living person and animal that was outside at the time of detonation.

Landing in the cracked concrete, Gabriel stepped down into the wet ground likely from the destroyed water main under his feet. Ordering crews to spread out, Gabe started down the street to see the dead Marines, SFs and even civilians as he crouched down beside them. There wasn't time to bury all of them or even dig a trench...this was the cost of war. Whispering a silent prayer, Gabriel got up as he tapped his ear piece while his team began setting an FOB; "Orange on the ground setting up operations but things are looking grim," getting up as he went with teams to go down into the old war bunkers to look for survivors.
Corinth was eerie quiet with only flowing water around them as they proceeded down the old subway tunnels. Water at their knees, they tried going down the old war tunnels but water was stopping their path and the water was still rising. Connecting to the City Emergency Broadcast System, Gabe knew any survivors would leave the city as he had the Raptors begin search patterns:
This is an Emergency Broadcast to all survivors of Corinth. Please meet the Evacuation Team at the Governmental Plaza where Medical Services will be available as well as coordinated Evacuation of Civilians and Military personnel to the Battlestar Titan. Setting it to repeat, Gabriel began picking up equipment while his team rushed to relocate with the subway flooding out onto the street.

As Lukana Moldoran, Assistant Secretary of Labor (NPC)
Standing in what now constituted as her office (a tent that was erected on the grounds of the University of Corinth), Lukana stood at the podium, preparing to address the crowd of people before her. She looked at her assistant to make certain they were ready to broadcast. Clearing her throat, she spoke into the microphone.
"Ladies and Gentlemen of Terra, my name is Lukana Moldoran and I am here to announce that your government is still here and we are in the process of rebuilding as I speak. Do not listen to the message of a former member of the military, one how has decided to take by force, the reigns of leadership. General Harperson is not in charge, I am. I hereby declare that any and all persons who take up arms against my duly appointed government and the citizens of this planet, those persons shall be arrested, tried and executed immediately, regardless of who they are. I am also declaring that ALL military personnel and assets are hereby under the control of the newly constituted government. Since our fearless President decided to evacuate herself and her friends from Terra, I am officially assuming the office of President of Terra, complete with all powers and authorities therein. More information shall be provided in the future. Thank you all."

Sandy sat there on the park bench, taking in the cool air, watching as the humans rushed around like chickens with their heads cut off. She had heard the rumbling sound of an explosion in the far off distance but from where she was sitting, she couldn't see anything. She then was able to see a faint bright light far off to the east of the city. Instantly she knew what had happened. Bowing her head down and shaking it lightly, she really wished she could get her hands around Cavil's neck, all of them, and just squeeze the life from them. This was all so senseless and a waste of time and resources. Why the Cavils could not just let this fight with the humans end was beyond her. Still, the fact the humans kept sticking their noses into Cylon airspace wasn't helping the situation out any and was only giving the Cavils the excuse they needed. Standing up, she tossed the rest of the sunflower seeds that were in her hand to the waiting birds that had gathered around her. It was a shame the others could not experience the little things this planet had to offer. Walking towards the far end of the park, she spotted the two hybrids that were waiting for her. Stopping before them she saw the expressions on their faces.
"What?"
"An Eight detonated a nuke in Alpheus."
"Well, that explains the sound and flash of light and from the direction, I guessed it was Alpheus. But there's something else, what?"
"There are a couple Cavils on the surface and they intend to nuke every single city. We don't have enough of our people to stop them."
"Oh, I believe I can get us some additional help, as soon as I can find a friendly type here, if he hasn't left already."
"Well, we need to get out of here as quickly as possible."
"Is the city a target?"
"Most likely but there is a bigger issue as well. They unleashed that Virgon Flu and it's mutated."
"I told them to leave that alone, that this would happen and not only could, but WOULD infect us as well. Oh, the arrogance of the Cavils and his followers. Okay, I take it we are driving out of here?"
"Yes, there is a vehicle right over there."
"Ok, let's go then."

Sandy stood off to the distance, watching the group of humans leaving the Council building. She wished there were some way to tell them what they knew and what their plans were but to do that would only mess everything up, and get herself killed in the process. Looking at the hybrid female next to her, she spoke.
"Let's get moving, we don't have a whole lot of time and we have a lot to do before this all goes to shit."
