Elemental Destruction

Elemental Destruction is a story based off of the "Unidentified" element on the periodic table called Ununseptium. Ununseptium is one of the most radioactive and unstable elements on the planet. Considering that the deterioration of the element is extremely fast, no successful half-lives have been stabilized long enough to get identify the chemical and physical properties of Ununseptium. Currently, the Russians are attempting to study this mysterious element in order to find more information.

In the story, when the Russians become successful in their tests, they find out that Ununseptium is the most reactive element in the world, causing an astronomical explosion if it comes in contact with Oxygen, one large enough to blow up almost half of Russia, if produced in large amounts, so before anyone could use the element for bad purposes, the scientists try desperately to destroy their research. Unfortunately, word was leaked to the Russian government of such a destructive force, so they seized the research and put the scientist to work to create more Ununseptium.

Soon, America found out about the plan and tried to create Ununseptium of their own to match the Russians, but when the element was stabilized in test labs and produced in large amounts, the air-tight seal was punctured in the manufacturing plant, causing most of America to be annihilated, while the borders of Mexico and Canada were destroyed as well. Only the most Eastern states were able to escape to Europe.

With war dawning, the EU decides to pitch in most of their resources in a war effort to stop Russia. Now, it is up to the soldiers of this massive army to stop all out Armageddon from occurring, even some Russians have formed a rebellion in order to stop the madness of the Russian government. On the opposing force, the Russians gather up their elite Spentsnaz soldiers to guard the various Ununseptium plants while the regular army protects major cities and other sites. If they do not stop Russia before they create enough Ununseptium to destroy the rest of Europe, then the world is at the mercy of the Russian government.

Post Merge: January 23, 2010, 09:02:57 AMIn a large British training camp, Howl was instructing other soldiers on how to aim correctly. "No no, hold it like this, and use the sights for once, don't want to look like a mindless twat out on the battlefield!" The private nodded and shot, hitting his target in the center mass. "Alright, nice shot. Just keep on practicing and you'll be picking off Russian's blindfolded. I'm going off for a cup of coffee." Howl ran off to the mess hall and grabbed a hot cup of coffee.

Trauss backhands a man across the face; the chair he is tied to almost tips over. The man was wearing a russian military uniform, his face badly beaten and bloody. "I'm only asking one more time!" barked Trauss, holding a picture of Aeris infront of the man's face. "Where is she?!" "I know nothing!" pleaded the man. Trauss bats him again. "I know you were on the team that extracted her, damnit!" said Trauss rubbing his knuckles. "You hit like girl!" scoffed the man. Trauss walked to his black trench coat that lay over a table behind him and took out his 9mm and walked back. "You're useless to me then," he sighed cocking the 9mm. A worried look came about the man as the gun was pressed to his head. "Wait!" begged the man. "I talk!" Trauss lowered the gun. "Your girlfriend, we were ord-" A sniper rifle round tears through the window in the room and through his skull before he could finish. Trauss swore under his breath before quickly grabbing his things and jumping out a window as men poured into the room.

On Russian radios, they speak of the current troubles.
"Command, we have seen another civilian running around armed, he is most likely a rebel!"
"Then apprehend him, find out what he's after."
"Yes, sir!"

[Srgntcuddles]

Trauss sprints down a road void of life, several soldiers on his tail. A few bullets strike Trauss; not being silver they barely left a burn mark. He rounded a corner and ducked into a nearby alleyway and hid behind a dumpster. Trauss brushed off the bullets as five soldiers stood at the mouth of the alley way. The man in the middle silently signaled for the team to move in. All but the head of the group walked in a column formation down the alley; nearing the dumpster Trauss was behind. The dumpster was off the wall enough to hide between it and the wall, but angled diagonally facing the opening deeper into the alley. As the soldiers walked deeper into the alley, Trauss hid silently behind the dumpster.

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

With the soldiers moving in silently, they scanned the area around them. The only object protruding from the ally walls was the dumpster. So, they moved in to check it out. The squad leader opened up the dumpster and turned his face away from the acute stench irradiating from the trash. Thinking that the man they were pursuing had disappeared, they got back on their radio, "Command, the area is clear." "Good, now return to your regular positions." "Yes, sir." Then they ran off, back to the base.

Back at the British training camp, Howl was sipping on his coffee while mingling with another soldier. "So those poor yanks have been blown to bits, have they?" "That's right, Howl." "A shame, even with all the bad publicity. At least the blokes up in Canada and down in Mexico only got their borders destroyed instead of their whole country."

Trauss heard the radio transmission and then the soldiers leaving. He sighed in relief and creeped out of the alley. He noticed the sun was setting and he was tired; he decided to head home to rest.

An hour of walking, he reached a small house. Rather than going in the front he went around the side into the back. He opened the back door and stepped over a tripwire as he went inside closing the door behind him. He walked down the hallway and into a room; with a weapon rack mounted on the wall. The rack was mostly barren other than a hunting rifle and a few russian weapons.
He tossed his 9mm onto a table under the rack; it's landing disturbed the strewn about items, like cell phones, gun parts, bullets, pipes and wires. He tore off his trench coat and tossed it on the bedpost on his bed as he plopped down on the bed. He turned his head to a picture frame of him and his friends. He grabbed it and held it over his face as he lay in bed. "Goodbye..." He set the picture back down on the nightstand and fell asleep.

He looked at the clock on his nightstand. "12:47PM" He tucked his knife back into the bottom of his boot and left the house.

Trauss walked into a bar in town, he sat in his usual spot. The room was full of people, including a few soldiers. The bartender noticed him and slid him his usual glass of cola ontop of a napkin. Trauss took a drink and crumpled the napkin in his hand before setting a few rubles down in it's place and left.

Trauss examined a note that was hidden in the napkin outside the bar. It read "7:15A-Cheryll tower-5k+info" Trauss burnt the note, curious of the "Info" as he walked into the night towards home.

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

"Well, let's hope that we don't turn out the same as America." Said the Lieutenant. "Oi, but it's up to us on the front-lines to ensure it doesn't happen." After that, Howl took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then lighting it up and blowing out smoke. "Some people are putting dosh on the table saying that we're going to loose. But we'll show those pricks, won't we?"

On Trauss's way back, a couple of patrols stopped him. "Hey, you, over here!"

[Srgntcuddles]

((Stange, I don't even know how to merge threads :O))

Trauss sighed as walked over the the patrol. "Yes? Did I do something wrong?"

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

(It does it automatically if you post a comment when the latest comment in the thread was yours. Now, try to keep OOC talk in the OOC thread. I'm not scolding you or anything, but I don't want it to become a habit)

The patrol shook his head and spoke in a very low tone, just above whispering. "No, we're part of the resistance, I'm Абрам (It's Abram translated), and this is Семён (Semyon translated). Right now, we have some vital information for you, but we must speak in private. Follow me." Абрам walked off with Семён into an abandoned restaurant.

[Srgntcuddles]

Trauss shocked, and aroused by a sudden sense of curiousity  blindly followed the two into the restaurant.

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

The Lieutenant chuckled. "Well, let's not get too cocky, Howl. Right now, you should get back out to the training fields, where all the FNGs are waiting." Howl sighed. "Ugh, well, I guess I should. See ya around."

Back in Russia, when they got inside, Абрам looked around to make sure nobody was watching. "I've seen you out there, American, and ya got some talent, yet our comrades fight with your same spirit and are still loosing. But we are tougher then rock and will crush those evil men!" Семён interrupted by clearing his throat. "Абрам, the info." Абрам blushed. "R-right, well, before I say the info, can you tell us your name?"

[Srgntcuddles]

Trauss hesitated; thoughts racing through his mind in an instant. "My name? Who ARE these guys? What if their lieing? What if they know something about Aeris?! Tell them! NO! Can I trust them?! What if-" "Trauss...My name is Trauss," he spoke.

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

Абрам nodded. "Trauss, a unique name, but suiting. Anyway, look at these." He got out some papers and handed them to Trauss, they were all in Russian. "They say that all guards are to leave the area due to immanent bombing. Do you realize what this means?! They are going to test the Ununseptium on this city! The government knows that most of the big rebel outposts are here, so we are trying to get all rebels out of here to meet up with the EU." 

[Srgntcuddles]

Trauss was shocked at hearing this. "A-are you serious?!" asked Trauss unbelieving. "What about the civilians?! Do they not care anymore?!" Trauss stuck one hand in his tranch coat and put his other hand on his head and paced back and forth. His hand firmly grasped the picture of Aeris, stroking it with his thumb in his pocket. "When is it going to happen? I have business here," Trauss spoke trying to calm himself.

[HowlTheGrayWolf]

Семён stood up. "We have two days." He looked out the window. "The civilians won't matter if they rule the world..."
