《HAVEN: THE SKY SCRAPER》Chapter 17: Leviathan
Advertisement
Over in Haven, Phoenix and the team around him are scanning through satellite images and coordinating the army, he notices a group of aircraft worryingly close to where the navy and rescue ships are heading.
"Get me the admiral, get me the admiral now!" He snaps at the others around him.
"What is it Phoenix?" She asks appearing on the main screen.
"The Leviathan is closing in on your location along with red giants" Phoenix informs her in a state of panic.
"How far away?" She continues to ask.
"You should be able to detect them on your scanners in the next twenty minutes or so" he continues.
"Thank you" she replies and the screen goes blank again.
The Red Giants are so called because the aircraft are large in scale and quite literally painted red.
"Your majesty, the Leviathan is inbound" she informs him.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me" he mumbles making his way to the bridge of the ship.
"All ships prepare for combat" Blackcroft announces through a speaker.
Sailors begin to load and reposition guns on the warships, alarms can be heard going off as they enter combat mode.
"This is something we could really do without having to deal with" Nathan moans.
"Full steam ahead" Blackcroft instructs her subordinate.
"Eye, eye, captain, full steam ahead" he replies.
The engines rumble and the ship drastically increases in speed.
"Nautilus, all aircraft airborne, now!" Nathan instructs the aircraft carrier through his headset.
One by one planes take of vertically and zoom overhead.
Before too long blobs appear on the scanners indicating that they are now within range.
"All aircraft standby to engage" Nathan continues to instruct them.
"They're not focusing on us, what are they …" Nathan snaps, as he runs to the other side of the ship, viewing the Leviathan making its way past them in the distance.

"They're targeting the docks" he mutters with a dreadful realization coming over him.
"BLAST THAT THING OUT OF THE SKY! NOW!" Nathan demands.
"YOU HEARD THE KING" the Blackcroft instructs the sailors.
Rockets begin to fire from the ship targeted directly at the Leviathan, flak is fired from the aircraft and the rockets detonate a good distance away from it.
"Naval warships also inbound" Phoenix can be heard announcing through the screen.
"This is going from bad to worse" Nathan mumbles to himself.
