Xenonauts: Menace from The Void



INTRODUCTION


The surest evidence that there is intelligent life in outer space is the fact that it hasn’t come here…
-Arthur C. Clarke

Let us start by asking a question. Do you believe that there is life “out there”? Are the stars’ truly empty, devoid of extraterrestrial intelligence? That we are the only rock in a galaxy billions of stars across capable of sustaining life? We are not alone. We are all in danger of an imminent destruction. If you are reading this right now, we have found that you are of use to our cause, be it combat experience, scientific expertise, dog-fighting skills, etc. “What is ‘our cause’”, you may ask? “Humanity’s survival”, our reply.

We think it’s time you knew the truth.


BACKGROUND INFORMATION


On April 23, 1958, NATO and NORAD radar picked up an unidentified flying object flying near US airspace. Initially, it was thought that it was a Soviet ICBM; however, the fact that it was only a single contact as well as its sudden change of trajectory quickly eliminated that theory. Soon, every fighter on the Atlantic coast was launched to intercept the UFO. The Soviets also began launching their own fighters in Europe, thinking that a NATO invasion was occurring. However, talks soon began between NATO and the USSR. A squadron of F-8 fighters intercepted the UFO and they attempted to communicate with the craft. However, as they approached the craft, the fighters were immediately fired upon. Of the six fighters in that squadron, only a single heavily damaged fighter returned to base.

Soon, NATO responded by firing six ICBMs at the UFO in a spread pattern, so that when the missiles detonated, it would envelop and destroy the UFO. It was somewhat successful, as the craft was hit and crashed into Southern Iceland. NATO and Soviet troops started to land near the Crash site, with a command post being set up. The plan was for the combined forces to encircle the UFO and to slowly close in on it. The attack force consisted of troops and tank support. Eventually, the order came in to advance on the wreckage. When the troops closed to about one kilometer, they came under heavy fire from the surviving Alien crew. The human forces suffered heavy casualties as even tanks were sliced apart with ease. However, the human forces pressed forward, and soon the Aliens were evidently losing the battle. Several hours after the battle started and as the human forces were about half a kilometer from the crash, the Aliens detonated their power source. The resulting explosion completely wiped out the entire advance human forces and the UFO, with the only survivors being the field officers at the command post and wounded pulled back from the fighting.

The event was covered up as an attempted Soviet invasion of Iceland, a joint Soviet-NATO force was stationed at the crash area and scientists began studying what had survived the explosion, which was basically nothing. However, this incident caused NATO and the USSR to form the Xenonauts, an international organization designed to combat any future Alien threats, armed with the best humanity had to offer.
