be absorbed in thoughts, as they tried to integrate his message. “Dear colleagues, if we want to rebuild our planet, we must start with earth. We must first go back to earth and rescue the human race. It is then that we shall be able to reunite when we come back to Ghostia. It seems to be suicidal but we have no choice. If they conquer earth, they will use it as a base to destabilize us here. Therefore, we need some of you to join us in this counterattack. Others should remain here and guard our planet such that no one robs us of our success again.” All the warriors voluntarily crossed to the side of the Ghoes and were willing to escort them to earth even though it meant fighting their colleagues. They moved straight to the underground facility and pulled out all the weapons and aircraft that had been reserved for their force. They were joined by more ghosts from the general populace, especially those who were former soldiers on earth. Among the volunteers, came the skeleton of Dr. Christine. After being shot to death by her husband, her soul had travelled back to Arcacidia and was dressed in a new skeleton. Lord Ghost did not bother following to re-arrest her because he had no time for that. This scientist was ready to go and help with the destruction of the Chemical and Biological weapons which Lord Ghost had carried to earth. They first marked all their aircraft with white stripes before leaving for earth in order to distinguish them from Lord Ghost’s fleet. The aircraft ascended into the skies amidst cheers from the ordinary ghosts who were watching from the Ruthst Square. The Ghoes were doing everything in a hurry because for every minute they delayed, dozens of humans were being killed by Lord Ghost’s team. Even the plan which they were to follow on their mission was discussed by the team en route! As soon as they entered the solar system the skeletons on earth noticed them. At that time Lord Ghost was in the laboratory supervising the progress of his scientists, but he was hurriedly called back to the Pentagon’s war rooms. “It’s a coup,”” he shouted when he saw the fleet of what resembled their aircraft on the computer screens. “Shoot them down before they reach low earth orbit,” he ordered. However, Gen. Cov also knew that they were being observed because he was the one who had designed the war plan they were following. He thus ordered two aircraft to fire air-to-air missiles at the International Space Station, which was the main computer control center of Lord Ghost’s team. By the time the skeletons on earth orientated their three space based killer satellites to start shooting down the invading aircraft with laser beams, the two missiles had already passed their position. They were able to shoot the station and it exploded at once. Even the twenty computer specialists on board perished. The loss of the station disrupted the communication systems of the ghosts on earth. They had to shift to other satellites more so those they had launched themselves. Gen. Cov also ordered the computer specialists of the invading army to hack into these satellites and take full control over them. This resulted into an intensive Cyber-attack from both sides. To weaken them more, Gen. Cov ordered his pilots to shoot down five of the seven miniaturized satellites that belonged to Lord Ghost’s team before they entered into the US airspace.
Due to the great pressure that had started mounting on their side, Lord Ghost ordered for the launching of the ICBMs against humans, in order to deter Gen. Cov's group from advancing further for fear of hurting more humans.The first to be launched travelled hypersonically at Mach 40 and hit Ottawa the capital of Canada. Its killer prowess was not in the powerful explosion nor the great structural damage that resulted because these were minimal. It was the gaseous mixture of poisonous chemicals and biological pathogens that came from it which were the most deadly. The
