Fallen World: The Complete Trilogy

by Tom Jones

  Arcades decided to ask Jim his question after disregarding Bocchino’s rude comments, “Jim. Would you be willing to fly the Stealth Hawk and take us there? We’ll make this the last thing we do with the Foundation. Something is telling me that this place in particular needs to fall. It feels as if it’s imputed on my heart that this facility must be shut down whatever the cost.” Jim contemplated the fox’s proposal, and he did look around the room several times while he thought. Jason placed his hand on the fox’s shoulder, “Kurt, I’ll follow you anywhere, mate. You’re my brother. We’ve been through the entire Foundation together. I’ll stay with you ‘till the end.” Bocchino wanted to make a sarcastic comment, but he remembered his last bout with Arcades at the motel. He especially did not want Jim to witness a similar event occur between him and the fox. The cat looked over to Arcades and Jason, “Kurt… Though I don’t like goin’ to all these damn places looking for anthros with you… I wouldn’t want to go into an operation with anybody else. We’ve started this mission. We’ve got to finish it if we’re really worth it. Count me in.” The fox was surprised by how Jason and Bocchino were willing to help with his mission given recent events. Arcades turned his vision back to face Jim, and he finally closed his laptop which the display had already disabled itself due to extended inactivity. Arcades reminded the human of the pending question, “So, we’ve already got a crew of three willing to come. The question is, are you going to fly for us?” Jim took a long inhale before he was finally ready to deliver his verdict to the crowd, “I’ll do it. It’s the right thing to do. The Foundation must be stopped no matter the cost. If this is truly Facility Zero, then we’ll be able to strike a major blow in the Foundation and set their efforts back.” Arcades smiled, glad his crew was willing to help him. The fox stood up from the couch still holding the laptop and said, “Well. Let’s not waste anymore time now. Shall we?”

  Two blue-tiered anthros carried the remains of the former human ISG as well as their own casualties. Zero stood in his office speaking with a member of the Majestic 12, “Yes, we may have prematurely killed the ISG, but somebody at this facility leaked the location online.” The MJ12 member replied, “Was the information able to be removed?” Zero knew that he could only do so much to prevent the spread of information, “I did what I could. I deleted everything related to our location that I was able to do.” The MJ12 member was unimpressed, “The Knights Templar and the Illuminati will hear about this, you know.” Zero sighed, “Yes, but I assure you that the situation is under control here. We are still mass-producing anthros, and we’ve made them as obedient as possible. We’ll send you a batch of special-bred foxes if it’ll make you guys happy.” The MJ12 member was still unimpressed by the offer, “The elites of the world have already spent plenty on their own personal slaves. Besides, you should be taking this slower and be more cautious. You don’t want the goyim to discover this whole operation, now do you?”

  Zero shook his head, “Of course not.” The MJ12 member mentioned Arcades, “That black and white fox I keep hearing about, the one who made it out of the Omega Foundation, how much does he know?” Zero was not entirely familiar with Arcades since he never saw him personally, “From what I heard from the Site Directors and the ISG, he knows a bit more than he should.” The MJ12 member pressed for information, “Does he know about the Foundation’s ties to the Knights Templar, Majestic 12, and the greater Illuminati?” Zero shrugged, “I really don’t know, but I hope he doesn’t know. He escaped from Facility One, but --” Zero was cut off by the MJ12 member, “You let a fox escape from Facility One? Now, we are monitoring a CDI aircraft carrier off the coast of the United Kingdom! We can’t confirm that they are sending it to your location, but your location has indeed leaked. If you are attacked by CDI, you must stop them by any means necessary!” The MJ12 member was sure to add extra emphasis in his demands.

  Zero acknowledged his superior, “Yes, I’m doing everything I can do to make that happen. I made sure to manufacture anthros specifically for the purpose of defending this facility just in case this were to get out of hand. We never expected a layman to find information on the Foundation. We wanted CDI to attack the NSS in the first place before slowly revealing more information about certain facilities for CDI to attack.” The MJ12 member quickly replied, “Your manufactured anthros are supposed to be used by the elites of the world for pleasure-related reasons. You know that already. Anthros shouldn’t have weapons.” Zero tried to diffuse the situation, “Yes, but I want to let you know that they are competent in what they do. They were successfully able to eliminate ISG Alpha-Omega.” The MJ12 member took a pause before replying, “Are they capable of piloting the Dreadnought?” Zero nodded, “Yes, I told the humans that we wouldn’t let the manufactured anthros pilot it so they wouldn’t get suspicious of the plan. They are more than capable of piloting the Dreadnought.” The MJ12 member reminded Zero of something important, “If you have to use the Dreadnought, make sure that you do not let any information about it fall into the hands of outsiders. We need to create at least five of them before we are able to deploy them to Israel. How many of them are currently ready for combat operations?”

  Zero reported the state of the XVP-1, “We only have one combat operational Dreadnought. We have started on a second one, but we don’t expect to finish it for another few months.” The MJ12 member directed the conversation towards a different topic, “Do you notice any difference in energy from sacrificing manufactured anthros compared to naturally born anthros?” Zero shook his head, “Not so far. From the ones that I was able to do, we’ve got the same energy from them.” The MJ12 member replied, “Good. Speaking of your manufactured anthros, the Illuminati has declared that all of the manufactured anthros are now property of the Majestic 12. Your Omega Internal Security Group no longer needs to exist.” Zero nodded and replied, “Understood. Would you at least like me to send a sample anthro? I can give you any race, gender, color scheme, -- whatever you want.” The MJ12 member said, “I would like one regular male red fox to try for myself. All of the anthros we have here are natural-born in the sense that they did not come from your manufacturing facility. However, I would like for you to wait for a while before sending that anthro. We do not know if CDI would be able to intercept it before it would reach our location. We do not need an MJ12 facility becoming compromised. That would be unacceptable.”

  Zero acknowledged the MJ12 member, “Of course. I’ll continue to produce anthros here. With the Omega Foundation now complete in its purpose, is this facility now property of MJ12 as well? Or is there another Illuminati branch which wants to claim it?” The MJ12 member replied, “The Knights Templar is currently looking at claiming it, but the manufactured anthros are property of MJ12 as of now. We technically have control of your facility.” After a brief moment of silence, the MJ12 member continued speaking, “Our efforts of infiltrating CDI have been unsuccessful so far. I recall hearing that some Omega ISG operatives had infiltrated the ranks. What is their status?” Zero reported the information, “They were accidentally killed when we sent a small group of manufactured anthros from this location to attack a CDI office in the United Kingdom. We sent them to kill that black and white fox.” The MJ12 member reprimanded Zero, “That deployment cost us our efforts to get into CDI. The Illuminati does not have control of that company, and they have already obtained aircraft carriers along with other resources. They are a potential threat to the Illuminati at large since they do not fall under any one government. Though we do control the governments they operate in, it would be way too hard to covertly dwindle their numbers without the public becoming aware.”

  Zero nodded quickly, “Yes, I am well-aware of that. I assure you that the XVP-1 is well-equipped to take on the carrier and any aircraft launched from it in the event that it reaches this location.” The MJ12 member considered Zero’s claim, but he still had to remind him of his priorities, “Manufacturing more anthros should be your top priority. We will be able to use them to further d
isrupt anthro-human relations. We could also potentially use some of them for more false-flag attacks across multiple countries in order to instigate a war between the humans and anthros. Once a war starts, we will be able to step in and control the surviving population after we use our biochemical weapon we’ve been working on. Remember the weapon we deployed in Wuhan, China in late 2019? We’re planning something bigger for Agenda 2030, but we won’t be able to commence the attack by the planned date if you lose those anthros.” Zero remembered the Dreadnought, but he did not decide to comment on Agenda 2030, “And the XVP-1? Should that be another priority as well?” The MJ12 member replied, “Continue working on the vehicle. We need at least five of them before we deploy them in Israel, but that is supposed to happen during the anthro-human war before the bioweapon gets deployed. How many anthros do you currently have manufactured?” Zero remembered the last number he knew, “About two-thousand adult anthros. We also have about a thousand anthro children under the age of ten that are still growing. We have plenty of red foxes as well. We can send some of them to the elites if they request them.” The MJ12 member declined the offer, “The elites already have plenty of anthro children at their disposal. Giving them more could potentially spell a leak. We should avoid the spread of information at all costs. Pizzagate was a close call when that went viral.”

  Zero remembered that the MJ12 member told him practically the same information earlier, “Yes, I will do everything in my power to prevent more leaks from happening.” The MJ12 member had one more thing to say to the former Overseer of the Omega Foundation, “And stop looking for that black and white fox. It’s not worth the hassle just for him. You can already manufacture foxes anyways, and we do not even need the Omega Foundation anymore. We have enough genetic material processed from the anthros, and the elites are happy with their purchases from the Foundation. We have enough funding now from them and our many banks to pursue our plans on a larger scale.” Zero acknowledged the information he had just received, “Yes. I will keep all of that in mind.” The MJ12 member decided it was time to disconnect from the call, “Good. We will be sure to contact you with any further developments.” The second human disconnected from the call, and Zero closed the program he used to talk to the MJ12 member. He looked over to the pile of bodies in his room and shook his head as he spoke to the MJ12 anthros collecting the bodies, “They’re too disfigured for a ritual. Just get rid of them.” The anthros proceeded to work on their newly assigned tasks in an almost robotic manner. They were not even considered living beings by the Illuminati.

  Arcades sat inside of the Stealth Hawk as it flew over the continental United States. The fox was holding his trusty Salient GRY despite Bocchino’s requests to use the fox’s signature rifle. Jason was holding the fox’s Heckler & Koch 433, a weapon he was familiar with. Bocchino was using the Beretta ARX-160, a weapon he had a personal affinity with because of his Italian heritage. Jim would not be on the ground during the battle, but he was still carrying the Ruger Redhawk Arcades received when he was involved during the raid on Facility Five. Jim still had fresh memories of that particular helicopter ride taking place within the same helicopter he was currently piloting when the fox first made real contact with Jim. Arcades was wearing his Rhodesian Brushstroke uniform, but it was not the one he wore in the Congo. The fox was instead wearing a Crye Precision G3 style uniform, though the uniform itself was not produced by the company itself. Instead, the uniform was produced by a tailor who made the uniform custom to fit the fox’s irregular body type.

  Jason was wearing a UF PRO Striker X Combat Pants in the Multicam pattern along with a matching-color Platatac Cool Under Tactical Shirt V2. Bocchino was wearing Patagonia L9 Combat Pants with a UF PRO Striker XT G2 Combat Shirt, both in the Multicam pattern. While Arcades wore the same OD Green MOLLE H-Harness he brought with him to the Congo, Jason and Bocchino were wearing plate carriers. The wolf wore Arcades’ Multicam Crye Precision JPC 2.0 while Bocchino wore a Multicam Crye Precision AVS. Both the wolf and the cat wore HSGI battle belts in Multicam, and they wondered why the fox chose to wear his unique camouflage pattern. As always, Arcades brought along a boonie hat with him, this one matching his Rhodesian Brushstroke camouflage pattern. Though he wore mostly green equipment, he still wore khaki Oakley SI Assault Gloves and Crye Precision G4 kneepads. Jason wore a similar boonie to Arcades, despite his previous need for a helmet, but his hat was in Multicam rather than Rhodesian Brushstroke. The cat on the other hand wore a Team Wendy EXFIL helmet with a Multicam helmet cover, and he wondered why he was the only anthro out of the three who decided to opt for head protection. After all, he figured that the group had the potential to get into a nasty firefight.

  The cat questioned the fox about his choices of equipment, “Kurt, why no plate carrier or helmet?” The fox replied with his answer, “I don’t need them. I’ve got the Lord with me. If He wants me to live to see another day, then He’ll make it happen.” Bocchino replied sarcastically, “I’m not sure if I’m going to call that bravery or stupidity. I’m more or less leaning towards the latter.” Jason did not have any comment to make towards the fox. As always, Arcades remained the only one to not wear shoes out of the group. The fox looked out of the helicopter’s window, and he could see that the sun was at such an angle that he was squinting to protect his eyes from the light. Arcades removed his Oakley M2 frames and pushed them in front of his eyes to block out some of the sun. The fox turned to Jason, who was sitting and holding his weapon. Arcades spoke to the wolf, “How are you feeling, Jason?” The wolf replied, “I guess we don’t have anything to really worry about for the next couple of days. It’s gonna take us that long to get over to Devon Island anyways.”

  Arcades agreed with the wolf, “Does your kit feel comfortable? We’ve been wearing it for a couple hours. Mine still feels fine. Gotta make sure we fix any issues before we get going. I’d hate to be out there and run into a problem.” The wolf said, “Your vest seems to fit me fine after a little adjustment.” The fox nodded, “Yeah, I had it adjusted to fit somebody a couple inches taller than you.” Jason did not have anything else to say to Arcades. The fox then began to unbuckle his chest rig, “I think a few hours is good enough for now. Let’s not use all of our strength for weight bearing on the way there.” Arcades dropped his equipment in the cabin of the Stealth Hawk, and Jason began to take off his plate carrier as well. After the fox helped Jason remove his JPC 2.0, he sat it aside in a different pile from his own equipment. Bocchino watched as the fox and wolf both removed their gloves and deposited them into the piles. As the cat rode in the Stealth Hawk, he was surprised by how quiet the helicopter was compared to the Pave Hawk Arcades had. Arcades sat next to the wolf, and they began a casual conversation which Bocchino did not really feel like joining. After a few moments of talk, Bocchino watched as the fox removed a Bible from his equipment and began to read from it to Jason. The cat only watched, and he did not listen to what the discussion was about despite remembering the last time he saw the fox read from the Bible.

  As the CDI carrier was saling closer and closer to Devon Island, the crew was prepping their aircraft by moving them into position on the deck. CDI was planning on launching sixteen jet aircraft during the assault. The Su-33s and Rafale Ms would launch first and be tasked with launching an airstrike on the facility. The F/A-18F Block IIIs would launch after the first two squadrons with the F-35Cs in order to establish air superiority as well as support the airstrike effort. After the airspace has been deemed safe enough to proceed with the next phase of the mission, four NH90s would take off and launch the heliborne assault on the compound. Given the terrain of Devon Island, it would be too hard to launch an assault on the base from the water. Ground vehicles also would not be able to drive to the facility either, so CDI would rely on more aircraft to compensate for the lack of ground vehicles.

  One of the Su-33 Flanker-Ds ascended up the ramp of the carrier, but there was no pilot seated in the aircraft. CDI would still have to wait one
more day until they would be able to proceed with the attack. Four Rafale Ms were already on the deck of the carrier, and two of them were already positioned so that they would be able to quickly deploy utilizing the carrier’s catapult assisted launching system. The Flanker-Ds would be moved closer to the stern of the ship in order for them to move into position and use the catapult after the Rafale Ms successfully took flight. The NH90s would wait until at least the Rafale Ms and Flanker-Ds launch before launching the helicopters. Once the helicopters would become airborne, then the F-35Cs and Super Hornet Block IIIs would launch and enter the combat space around the same time that the first wave finishes their airstrike on the compound. Though CDI did not know if Facility Zero possessed any aircraft they planned on launching to defend the complex, they would still have the Super Hornets and Lightning IIs patrol the airspace. The Super Hornets and Lightning IIs would be equipped with a couple air-to-air missiles as well as air-to-ground missiles, but the remaining aircraft would be only equipped with air-to-ground armaments.

  Arcades looked out of the Stealth Hawk’s window, and he could see the water as they traveled past mainland Canada. Jim spoke to the fox, “We’ll probably get pretty close by sundown. When we get close enough, we should stop, get some fuel, get some food, and then get some rest.” The fox did not know where CDI was, “Do you think CDI would’ve already started their attack by that time?” The human did not know the answer, “There’s no telling. I don’t even know if they’ve launched their carrier yet. We may be there before they get there, or we might be already too late. Either way, it was a risk you were willing to take.” Arcades nodded, “Yes, I am willing to take this risk. If there is one facility we must take down, it’s this one. Right?” Jim did know that Facility Zero was significantly important to the Foundation, “This one sure does mean a lot to them.” The fox continued, “Yeah. Though we may not be able to rescue the rest of the anthros, at least we’ll be able to do something about this place.”
