[b]Serenity Insurrection[/b] SAF 015 moved into high orbit above Serenity. The Orbital Defense Network above the colony--still (thankfully) under control by the SCNOSE--parted as a large group of dropships and Rakora-Class Assault/SAR vessels descended into Serenity's atmosphere. They landed some distance outside of Gurin, the capital of the colony world. Several squads of HT-1 Scorpion hovertanks and three squadrons of HV-6 Sparrohawk VTOLS moved towards the city. The loud thrum of the Rakoras as they drifted ahead, their magnetic accelerator cannons primed, thundered across the valley they were situated in. Three Sparrowhawks were deployed from an orbiting Trikolo II-Class Orbital Bombardment Vessel, carrying a total of sixty three special operations airdrop soldiers. They were on standby; if ground operations went awry then the need to send in ADB soldiers to go behind enemy lines would be necessary. Given the huge population of rebels that occupied Gurin it would be very possible that opposition would also be heavy. Supreme Commander Felasi'hum read reports and watched feeds on Karboria. Her heart beat and sweat dripped down her face. Fighting a foreign enemy that threatened Sazkarjhia was one thing; brother-fighting-brother to preserve Sazkar and her colonies was something completely different.
