While standing behind the Briefing Room’s podium looking over the Patrol Group, Explorer Leader Thelt says, “Quiet down and find a place to sit.
“After we spoke earlier today, Ship Commander Shimlt ordered me to her Briefing Room for a Mission Briefing. I did not like what she told me, and once I pass her briefing on to you, I will probably be spoiling this Ship Day for you, as she spoiled it for me.
“Ship Commander Shimlt was selected for this Mission for the reasons I stated this morning. Now, she has selected our Patrol Group to land on the target planet and recover the Supreme Royal Zldat’s First Offspring.
“Commander Shimlt briefed a select group of the ship’s officers on the Mission. She did not explain everything to us during the earlier briefing; especially the limitations that have been placed on the ship’s company in completing the Mission.
“You may not be aware of it, but there was a Mission to the target planet before ours. They Time Distorted four hundred Solar Revolutions into the planet’s past. When they returned, they brought back Planetary Assessment data that indicated the planet was inhabited by a primitive, hostile, but intelligent species.
“On our last Mission, we Time Distorted two hundred and fifty Solar Revolutions into the target planet’s past. After we returned, our Planetary Assessment data was compared to that of the prior Mission. The Exploration Council and Royal Zldat Council decided that the dominate species is evolving socially and technologically at a very high rate. They are both curious and concerned about the level of civilization and technology level the dominate species may have attained. Their main concerns are inhabitants’ level of hostility and the planet’s current level of technology. Their level of Civilization was similar for both sets of data, but the technology level had increased significantly. If that trend continued, their levels of hostility and technology may be sufficient to adversely impact our Mission.
“In addition to recovering the Supreme Royal Zldat’s First Offspring from the planet, we have been tasked with evaluating its current level of civilization, technology, and hostility. The data we take back will be analyzed to determine when they will evolve into a spacefaring race.
“With that in mind, the Royal Zldat Council has directed us to comply with Full Diplomatic Protocol. In addition to that tasking, the Exploration Council has tasked us with complying with Exploration Directive 1495. That’s one of the reasons why we will have an Assault Package and a Division of Assault Troops on the ship. A second reason for the Assault Troops is the Supreme Royal Zldat decided that he should be represented on this Mission. Therefore, a Soldar from the Royal Zldat Council and one of the Supreme Royal Zldat’s personal advisers will be joining us when we stop to pick up the Assault Package and Assault Troops. We and the Assault Troops are jointly responsible for the safety of the two Zldats.
“It may not be important to us personally, but the two Zldats have requested that they be quartered with the ship’s complement of Zldats. From what I have been told, Commander Shimlt thinks that request is because they think our Zldats may have information about the First Offspring’s decision to stay on the planet. They will also be bonding with our Zldats to increase their persuasive powers, such that they will be able to convince the First Offspring to return to the ship with us.
“To complicate matters further for this Patrol Group, Gletb was a member of our Patrol Group. Commander Shimlt believes that our Patrol Group should have the honor of being the ship’s primary interface with the dominate race of the target planet. We will also have the honor of escorting one of the two Zldats down to the planet, when they decide it’s necessary for one of them to make planet fall. This may seem like good news for we will not have to convince the First Offspring to return with us and it will make accumulating the data we are tasked to acquire easier; but it isn’t. We will be held personally responsible for the safety of the Zldats when they leave the ship; and we will not be allowed to carry offensive weapons. Thus, we will have no means of protecting the Zldats.
“Before I continue, are there any questions? Yes, Relpt.”
“Sir, I’m confused. Diplomatic Protocol requires that we commit no acts of aggression against the planet’s inhabitants. Directive 1495 requires us to take whatever action necessary, including violent action, to ensure an aggressive space faring race cannot attack the Empire. Isn’t that a conflict in Mission Tasking?”
“I agree with you, Relpt, that is a conflict in tasking. I suspect that’s part of the reason why a Senior Soldar and the Adviser are going to be with us, and in charge of the Mission I might add. Commander Shimlt informed me that once we are close enough to the planet’s solar system, we will stop to gather data and the Zldats will assess the current situation on the planet. At that time, we will be briefed on how we are to conduct ourselves when we are sent down to retrieve the First Offspring.
“She has already informed me that, until the Soldar and Adviser decide the planet is committing an aggressive act toward us, our Patrol Group will comply with Diplomatic Protocol. In her interpretation of our Mission Directives, the Patrol Group will not commit any aggressive actions, so that’s why we will not be armed with offensive weapons when we make planet fall. I seem to recall her saying, “If you don’t have them, then you won’t accidentally use them.”
“I can see most of you have recognized the significance of that direction. For those of you who are a bit slow this early in the Ship Day, I will explain it in blunt terms. The Soldar and Adviser are in charge. This Patrol Group is to be used to evaluate the level of aggression the planet’s population exhibits. Finally, our lack of offensive weapons means we are expendable.
“Yes, Vert, did you have something to add?”
“No, Sir. I was wondering if the Royal Zldat Council had provided us with any specific information that will be helpful to us in convincing the First Offspring to return to the ship with us.”
“The only information we have is that the Supreme Royal Zldat attempted to dictate the details of the First Offspring’s first Division. The First Offspring objected and left the planet on our ship. Considering how sensitive the Zldats are regarding the manner in which they divide, no one has asked for them to share any specifics.
When I returned to the table, I set Mary’s box down, looked at the three women, and, with a big sigh, I sat down. While I was busy getting Mary out of the safe, Alicia had fixed the four of us strong drinks. I think she wanted to get Madge a little blitzed. You know what they say, ‘Chocolate is nice, but liquor is quicker.’ Anyway, I decided I would probably need more than one before this evening was over. Before I started talking, I took a big gulp of my drink. I must have finished off half...
I was sitting in the Captains office wondering why I had been called in on the third day of my 30 day R&R. I had spent the previous three days with the yards in their village getting drunk and telling tall tales to my men. Even after walking back the two miles I was still about half drunk and slightly nauseated from the native food I remembered eating last night. I remembered eating some kind of live wiggling larvae that tasted like walnuts from home and my men had all laughed at me...
The game always took place on the outer rim of the scorched city. An abandoned manufacturing facility long since left to decay by the authorities, far enough out that it was deemed too costly to demolish or protect from squatters, the dust, vermin and time allowed the privilege of sealing its fate. That's why it was perfect. Out of sight, out of mind. Those that picked up the coded messages advertising the date of each game knew the challenge was not necessarily winning. It was getting there...
Fantasy & Sci-FiAs usual these are stories and the belief in the truth is up to the reader. These are in first person and UN Edited. They are all also copyrighted to the writer and not to be changed without the writer's written permission. I was in the third day of a 5 day leave, and had just tumbled into my cot drunk as hell with all the rice wine we had been drinking at Chung's village. I dozed off into a drunken haze about dawn and was asleep when someone started knocking or should I say pounding on my...
This particular story is graphic so be warned!! All disclaimers apply so it is up to the reader to decide what is real and what is false. Names as well as regions and topographical locations have been changed to suit the story. This is told in first person and UN EDITED. I was sitting in the Captains office watching as the orderlies poured our coffee. The Captain hadn't said a word since the runner had brought me in. I was beginning to wonder what was going on since the Captain had always...
I was laying half asleep in my hooch nursing a major hangover from the homemade rice wine my yards had snuck in to celebrate with. We had been told to stand down for a week to have a little R&R and relax from our last mission. My second, Carlos had went to Saigon for five days, but I tried to stay away from there and usually hung around the base getting caught up on laundry and letter writing and this type of thing. Besides it gave me time to nurse my hangover and get together with our...
I woke up with someone pounding on my hooch door. This is getting old I thought to myself. We were supposed to be on a three day break between missions. When I answered there was an MP standing there and I immediately recognized him as working for the Captain running his errands. "Sarge, Chung is at the gate and asked to talk to you. I tried to tell him you were still sleeping, but he said it was important." "Ok, tell him I am on my way." He left and I started getting dressed. I...
After signing the papers Sam left for me, I said, “Carol, I was scheduled to return home tomorrow, because of the papers I would have to sign today. It seems odd to me that Eric, Phyllis, and Heather were scheduled to fly home yesterday. If they hadn’t been late, they would need to be here today to sign papers, also. “A second odd thing is that after the reading of the will, Alicia and I spent most of the day together and then she decided to change her return flight to tomorrow. But, when...
We were still sitting in the chow hall and Chung was again teasing Gunny who was giving him hell. The conversation broke off as the Cookie approached our table looking for me. "Sarge, the Captain just called and he wants you to report to his office ASAP." "Ok Cookie thanks." I told Gunny and Chung I would meet them back at the armory as soon as I was done and maybe I might have some more information for us. I double timed it over to command and was surprised to see two MP's on duty....
I was sitting in the Captain's outer office waiting to see why I had been called in so soon after debriefing. I was half asleep after a hard ten day jaunt into Laos where we were chased by VC patrols almost from the time we were dropped off. I had just sent the team back to the village to unwind and get some sleep and was on my way back to my hooch when an MP had picked me up saying the Captain had sent him to catch me before I went to sleep. Although this was strange I was too damned weary...
“Alicia, I called Sam about an additional advance to cover the cost of our wedding and other expenditures.” “Good thinking, Jeb! What did he say?” “He said yes, but he has to get approval from the Probate Judge. Sam thinks the Judge will approve the additional distribution, but it could be a week or more before we get the money.” “Oh!“ I was hoping it would be sooner than that.” “What’s the rush, Alicia?” “I don’t know. Something keeps urging me to build up our finances. I know our...
When Chung walked up to the jeep he was still laughing at me and Jenkins. "Sarge, you have problems, first you shoot at big mouth and no hit. Now you make team doctor mad, better hope you no get wounded or he might sew something in wrong place. You need get drunk and relax." "I don't think so my friend. This whole mission is getting too big and complex for me. Come, let us walk and I will explain what is going on." While we walked around the village I was explaining to Chung all that...
Neha had a very tough childhood. Her father left her family when she was just 3 years old and since then it has been only her mother and herself. Right from her childhood she was determined to do something for the country, to make her mother proud. It didn’t surprise many when she decided to join the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Many felt that it was a tough job for a girl and she would probably fail, but Neha always had the belief and the will to succeed. Neha, right from her...
The Guidance Council and Cathy had stepped in to restructure my personal life and organize my financial affairs. With Cathy’s involvement, I went from a pathetic lonely widower to a happily married man with three wives. To be more accurate, I consider my three women to be my wives, but we are not actually married in the legal sense. I suppose you could say we live together and call each other husband and wife. I’ve heard of whirlwind courtships, but mine has to have set a record. One day, I...
I was sitting in the Captain's office waiting to be called in for my mission briefing. I had been sitting drinking the lousy coffee for forty five minutes already and I could hear the Captain shouting at someone in his office. I don't know who the poor soul was, but for the Captain to raise his voice above a whisper, he must have really gotten him pissed. I was somewhat pissed myself because I was still looking for a second and still hadn't found one I thought I could work with. The few I...
“Alicia, our Time Scope ... err, sorry, I really need to start calling Mary by her name. Anyway, Mary told me that the people in orbit want to meet with the representatives of our planet. It will be a meeting between our representatives and their representatives, and it will be held here on Earth. “Mary said that they will announce their presence to the world telling everyone that they want to negotiate an Alliance Agreement between their Empire and the people of Earth. They will contact the...
Note to Readers: A lot of the facts in this one are true and also a lot of what is described actually happened. The VC were cruel and hated the hill tribes with a passion. ARVN troops were almost as bad as the VC and it created a lot of tension with the teams working in the bush. LZ Hardtimes was a firebase and thus the VC gave it hell every chance they got to do so. I had just come out from putting on my camo's to go back to my hooch when the tail end of a conversation between Chief and...
During the week after the privacy legislation had been passed by Parliament, Frank, Jim S, I, and our wives met to discuss our plans for the future. Some months back, we had decided that a few of our older children were mature enough to be informed of the mission. We briefed them on the four tasks and our desire for them to help support the mission. We made very sure to make it clear that the decision to support the mission was theirs to make. When they agreed, we strongly suggested that they...
I woke to the sound of the flaps coming down on the civilian transport plane landing back in Nam. While I looked out the window anticipating being back, I had to admit the ride back, although long, had been well worthwhile. I had been officially inducted into the mile high club by the cute little brunette who seemed to have latched on to me as soon as I boarded. She was a cute little stewardess who talked my head off for the first hour then invited me to tour the galley, and it had went from...
Dammit I thought why the firebase can't find some indigenous personnel that knew what they were doing. Seemed like this was the third trip this year to Dak Seang. The last time we had been sent Chung almost beat the Hmong head scout to death. He had met our chopper when it landed and told Chung he wasn't welcome in their camp. It had taken me and Ling both to pull him off the idiot. When the Captain came over and started chewing me I had told him the next time that ass jumped one of my men...
The usual disclaimers apply such as the names and locations have been changed to fit the story. This is all in first person and UN EDITED. I hope you enjoy this one as it is a little unusual. We were sitting in the middle of a big ass swamp, cold, wet and mad as hell. It was almost dark and we could hear VC moving all around us. We had been running full speed almost all day with Charlie keeping the pressure on. We couldn't even swat at the swarms of mosquito's around us for fear of giving...
I was aiming for that horrifying place where I had met Moranna, where I had been so greatly changed. Of course I hadn't told anyone I was going, they never would have allowed it; but I had to go--I was on a mission. I was pretty sure I would recognize and remember the terrain from my trip out to the village. I knew I had to head southeast, and even though nothing looked familiar, I still had my old instincts for finding my way around in the field. The capital city, like the island, was...
The following story is just that - a story - fiction. As such, all characters are fictitious and any similarities to persons living or deceased are purely coincidental. Some research has been done for authenticity and so I didn't screw it up too bad. Just so I don't receive nasty-grams from any WWII vets, the Balao class submarine, keel number 353, was never built. No military missions of this sort actually occurred in the areas at the dates specified. Furthermore, I hold the highest...
The Mission I I "May I come in?" It was the Ambassador. We called her that but she was more than just an Ambassador. We referred to her as her as a convenience. Her gender was something like human female but not exactly. She is Thanopses, the leading diplomat and project director for the Fomalhaut First Contact Mission to Earth on behalf of the Galactic Federation. She is also my boss. My office, in whose door she stood, is in the building now known as the First Contact...

Inside were the eight recruits and Annie. They were just beginning with the ground rules for the morning’s agenda. Each of the recruits was stationed at a small table with a computer, double monitors, and other office supplies they might need for the assignment.Sam heard the door to the small, darkened room hiss open and close.

The Mission II I "Aunt Sissy wants to take Judy and Solly to work with me today. I want to show them off to the staff. We'll have lunch in the refectory and they can watch me deliver my address from the broadcast studio. I promised them a treat and this is what they asked for." "Can we Daddy," they chorused. My mate Gwen, their mother, was standing right next to me but they addressed their request to me. It wasn't as if I were the final arbiter in this family, only the...
The ususal disclaimers apply but this one will be a little strange. I know about it, and it was strange to me as well. I have talked to several Vets and none of them had heard of this. There were eight of us that were chosen for this duty. I don't know if you could consider it an honor or a very distasteful duty. I do know that none of the others liked it any more than I did. Thankfully it was only for thirty days. This is in first person and UN EDITED. All mistakes are mine, and I refuse to...
"Dammit Chung, this is the third time this month they've sent us in here. I don't give a damned what HQ says there are no hidden bases in the middle of this swamp." "How you know Sarge, you telling future now?" "Very funny you sawed off comedian." I listened to the quiet laughter among the team and was glad to hear it. I looked over at Jenkins and he was shaking his head and smiling at the exchange between me and Chung. Finally after working together for so long he had finally...
We were wading in a stinking rice paddy in the delta and just about to get to dry land to take a break when off in the distance all hell broke loose. I could hear 16's as well as AK's popping off and from where we were at it sounded like it was in the area we had been sent to check out. This one was supposed to be nothing but a sneaky pete to see if some chopper jockeys information was true. This was supposed to be in and out within two days. We had packed light for a change and had made...
This was supposed to be a routine mission, but as usual although starting out easy it rapidly turned fubar. I didn't have a second but instead had gotten saddled with a radio specialist that was afraid of his own shadow. We were supposed to be testing some new type of radio that scrambled the signal so that the VC couldn't listen to our transmissions. Although a good idea the A Shaw wasn't a good place to test it. I had been overruled by the General and was ordered to go out with this...
"Dammit Chung, how the hell are they still tracking us. We got rid of all the dogs with Ling's balls of CS and itch powder. We haven't heard a bark since yesterday afternoon but they are still on our asses. We are about an hour ahead of them by my thoughts and we need a rest." This whole fiasco started with a simple recon mission to check on two of the small roads in the Mekong that seemed to have picked up a lot of new traffic. We had been asked by the Seals out of Dong Tam to check the...
I know many of you thought I would end this series with a big battle and blood and gore and etc., but I thought I would end it in a different way. I know all of you have heard of the Tet Offensive and I described some of it in the previous mission, and I will throw a few things in to describe it a little more, but I mainly wanted to give you my impression of my time in country. I stepped off the plane in Vietnam at the ripe old age of 17 1/2 years old because some remf screwed up my...

By Jax_Teller It was Aglom 32.870 and I was just getting underway with the retrofitted space craft Deflax. As a corporation Morox had spent a lot of money to repair this old ship, bringing her up to date and they had done some inventive upgrades. I took the job as Captain because this ship had a better than not chance of completing its mission. Often these journeys lost crews along the way and continued on remote for years before a new crew caught up with the ship. Often during...

At D-Day minus six months Jerry and I had, by satellite imagery, located a site on the continent of Plutus that roughly matched the terrain that Navy Intelligence had designated as our target on Metek’at IV. Jerry and I set up a sand table (really a holograph projector built into a table) and invited in the CO, XO, and NCOs that we would be working with on our chunk of the mission. If we were going to write a plan for the mission, we certainly wanted input from the troops who were going to...

As the traffickers wanted innocent girls, one of the most important things was to cover her tattoos in a way, which would withstand different conditions. Penny contacted a friend, who was an expert in these matters, and soon, Lilly tattoos were begin covered with a water-proof paint, perfectly matching the color of her skin. She liked how the procedure, combined with a bare pussy, made her look so young, and fragile. But instead of pondering on the innocence that was ripped from her at her...
I run a mission organization that coordinates volunteers for short- and long-term projects helping orphanages, clinics, and schools in 3rd world countries. Our office is located in a small town next to a conservative Bible College and Seminary. It is a great location because our operating costs are low, there are many students who want to go on mission projects, and we make contacts with future pastors who can steer project volunteers and, more importantly, donors our way once they are...
“Vert, we have been training for almost a week. We’ve improved and now we’re fairly good, but these Assault Troops are immeasurably better. If we have to make planet fall, I want one of our boy toys on each side of me. What about you?” “Yeah, I guess so, Relpt.” “What’s wrong, Vert?” “I’m not sure, Relpt. I’ve got this premonition that things aren’t going to go the way everyone is expecting them to go.” “What do you mean?” “Well everyone seems to be split between two camps. One camp...
While sipping on her mug of Helve, Relpt says, “Vert, do you remember telling me about your premonition that things wouldn’t go the way everyone is expecting them to go?” “Yeah. What of it?” “Well, I was thinking about the events that have taken place since you said that. If I didn’t know better, I would say you’re part Zldat and can see the future. “I mean, we all thought there were only two real options open to us before the Zldats contacted the First Offspring. Then, the First Offspring...
Explorer Leader Thelt begins by saying, “Alright, people, find a place to sit, and no chit-chat. We have a lot to go over.” As the Patrol Group members take their seats, Relpt asked, “What’s this about, Vert?” “I don’t know, but we are about to find out.” Thelt begins his briefing with, “Ship Commander Shimlt, the First Offspring, Soldar Tomrd, and Adviser Xlau have been notified of several problems with our current plan. They decided it needs to be revised. These changes will impact our...
“Settle down people,” Thelt said. “I know the Rumor Conduit is filled to overflowing with rumors of what happened yesterday and earlier today. Ship Commander Shimlt has been in almost nonstop meetings for the past two days. Before First Meal today, she briefed the ship’s officers on what happened yesterday and what she thinks will happen during the next five days. “Two days ago, Ship Commander Shimlt and the three Zldats finalized their plans for notifying the people of the target planet of...
It was apparent that Paul’s mind had wandered off somewhere. He looked like I felt: pulled through a wringer. In a mild voice, I said, “We still have a bit to talk about, Paul.” “Yes, we do. My mind is running around in circles right now, Jeb. I was picturing what the media might do with Directive 1495, and it wasn’t a pretty picture. What do you want to address first?” “There is too much for us to discuss if we try to cover everything before tomorrow, so I suggest we limit it to three...
Group Captain Montague's Mission By Vivienne Marcus One: The young British officer stood straight as a musket on the varnished wooden floor of the office on the seventh floor of the Whitehall Headquarters of the Secret Service. There were three other people in the room. Ahead of him, sitting behind an imposing oak desk topped with well worn dark green leather was a short gray-haired man in a dark brown tweed suit. He had a neatly trimmed moustache. A straight pipe was...
Now, the reason that I had been avoiding doing my “racial duty,” and getting lots of pretty girls pregnant, is that after being around for over a half-century, I’ve kind of lost the taste for casual fucking around. I know, I know. Big talk from a guy with a harem. But I wasn’t fucking around in my harem; I was supporting them and their kids. We were family. Most of my distaste for casual fucking around was caused by the number of relationships that I have seen hit the rocks and sink over...
Wonder Woman flew her invisible plane through the dark sky heading west out of Washington, D.C., the home of the IADC agency, of which she was the most famous field agent in their history. However, she had only rejoined the agency 4 days ago after a 30 year absence. She had returned to her home on Paradise Island back then because Orcs, large fierce green creatures, had invaded the Amazons. Thirty years later after the war had ended and the defenses had been strengthened so no such surprise...
Polly was leading me quickly from the restaurant where I had eaten her as well as an omelet made to appear as a portrait of myself arriving at the resort. “Spectacular performance in handling that volatile situation with Ruth. It was about to end badly. She is an exceptionally good agent, but still way too green to pull off a mission such as this. The CIA really needs to spend more time finding young looking agents that can properly get into their cover identities. She just blew seven years...
As Relpt joins her at a table for First Meal, Vert says, “Morning, Relpt, you look worn out this morning. Late night with one of our boy toys?” “No, I just wish it was something simple like that. “I had just climbed into bed, by myself I might add, when I remembered a conversation I had with some of our Patrol Group members. One of them asked what we should call the Supreme Royal Zldat and the First Offspring if the Supreme Royal Zldat is replaced during the coming contest. Blitht said we...
We were at Phyllis’s place, since we did not want to advertise our relationship to my new apartment neighbors, when: Ring ... Ring ...
