Constriction

In 2561, the United States rebelled against the UNSC, effectively starting the "Second American Revolution". With in a couple of months, US Military Forces, using only 23rd - 20th Century technology, overpowered and defeated the UNSC forces stationed in the United States.

The UNSC has planned a counter-attack through both space, air and sea. Can the US hold it's own against the might of the UNSC?

Prelude
Date: July 23rd, 2561, 2200 hours

UNSC forces converged on the major outposts, depots, naval yards and museums to block the United States Military from obtaining more weapons, tanks and overall firepower. Most of the UNSC forces in North America were sent to the San Francisco Naval and Space Depot, where half of the United State's sea and space reserve fleets were located.

Earlier in July, the 7th, 9th and 13th Marine Divisions captured all of the museums of significance along the Eastern Seaboard, while the 8th and 15th Army Regiments pushed UNSC forces westward. By the 23rd of July, all of the tanks, planes, ships and transports were activated on the east half of the United States.

Colonel Ryan Mitchell ran aboard the URS Bismarck BC-34, the last space battlecruiser to ever be put in service during the Sol Wars. Colonel Ryan ran to his post in the forward gun battery and sat down at his chair.

"Forward Battery 1, is everyone in their posts? Repeat, Forward Battery 1, is everyone at their posts?" Colonel Ryan heard a voice over the intercom and pressed a button next to it.

"Everyone is at their posts, we are ready for take-off," Colonel Ryan responded.

"Ackowledged. Bring her up!" Ryan felt the old ship start to take-off the ground and gripped the turret controls. He looked up at the roof at the turret, then looked back down. Although it didn't feel like it, but the ship was climbing up at a speed of 1500km to battle Earth's gravity.

At 20,000 feet, the Bismarck leveled out and met up with the rest of the reactivated space fleet.

"All ships, this is Admiral Gregory. We are heading towards Japan to battle the UNSC space fleet. Be prepared and fight to the end," Admiral Gregory told the crews of all ships in the reactivated space fleet.

Ryan brought up the firing controls and a holographic interface to see where the turret was firing.

"This will be one hell of a day huh?" a female crew member sitting next to him asked. Ryan looked at the crew member and nodded.

"It sure will be," he replied and looked back at his post.
