Fiction:The Battle of Geeqy

The Battle of Geeqy was one of the first battles of The Rapture's counter offensive in The Sagart Gap War.


 * The Noble Pioasan Empire: 5 quadrillion


 * The Rapture: 450 quadrillion

Background
After the Pioasans had barricaded themselves in The Sagart Gap, all The Rapture flung themselves at the 200+ systems in the gap. Severly weakened by their charge, the remaining Pioasan Space fleet was ordered to fall back to a repair station in the Cohllnr system. This would leave the Pioasan ground forces stranded in the gap, in what was assumed to be a massacre.

First Shots
On Yoisa Mekk 14,687,38 P.Y. (April 14th) the first wave of The Rapture landed on Geeqy. The Pioasans, despite being orbitally bombed the entire time, were able to kill 45 billion Rapture and lost only 4 million across the planet surface. When the Rapture stopped coming, many thought they had pushed back the invasion force assigned to take this planet thereby delaying The Rapture. In reality they had just stopped the first of hundreds of waves. 7 hours after the ending of the first wave the sound of descenting ships filled the air; the second wave had started. Many Pioasans had fallen asleep when the first shots were heard. As one Pioasan solider put it.

"We fell asleep to the sound of whistles and laughter....We woke up to screams of terror."

Caught offguard the Pioasans rushed to positions, many of which had been over run. While they were fighting many Pioasans were astonished at the sight they saw

" I saw someone throw a grenade into a oncoming horde of those things...they just ran right over it and the entire middle of the horde was shredded....but they didn't stop, hell they didn't even blink! Some just picked up the dead corspes and pulled the gun out of their hands! "

" 2 miles out thier is a hill, that hill wasn't there 3 days ago....and it keeps growing. I think I even saw some of them digging into the corspes and firing inside it! "

However just like before the second wave was repelled. This time however there was no celebrating, the cold hard reality of what The Rapture are like began to sink in...

" I turn to the guy next to me and said ' What the heck are these things?! They run over the bodies of their comrades like its a paved road! ' he laughed and told me ' They are The Rapture. The sickest, craziest, and most determined things in the damn galaxy...' then he got up and walked away. "

However a few days would pass before the true might of The Rapture was upon them.

Casualties:
 * Pioasan: 1.2 billion
 * Rapture: 32 trillion

The Charge of Rapture
5 days after the first wave and 2 days after the second. Many Pioasans had begun to loosen up and started to rest. The smart ones knew better.

" If I fall asleep I just know I will wake up with one of those things grabbing at my throat. "

At (12:24 AM) the alarms went off,
