Tessa and Vannessa made their way outside into the rain and walked toward the edge of the pier. Vannessa put her hands on the safety wall and hung her head. Tessa was fuming beside her. Another attack, a thousand dead, murdered. It was the mall times ten. And this time she wasn't there to tear those attackers throats apart.

Tessa: Vannessa...are you okay?

Tessa had noticed the girl's sudden change of mood and emotion. She hadn't said a word since she dropped her glass ten minutes ago.

Vannessa: Yeah...I'm alright. quote>

quote>

No, you're not. Anyone who answers the question: "Are you al right?" with that answer, isn't al right.

Likisy: Tessa! You there? Answer me girl.

Tessa's ear flickered at the new and rudely loud voice that appeared in her earpiece. Above ground meant comms worked again.quote>

Again, why wasn't a technique developed to make comms work underground.

Tessa: You know this won't continue much longer. Whoever they are, they will be found.quote>

Yes, but when, and at what cost?

Likisy: Tessa who the hell are you talking to?quote>

Her new girlfriend.

Tessa wanted to growl at him.

Vannessa: I guess. Bad thing is though that it's personal...quote>

What does she mean with this?

Tessa: Oh Vannessa, I want you to meet someone.

Vannessa stood up and turned to where Tessa was looking. She saw Likisy then and leaned to Tessa questionatively.

Tessa: Hi daddy, found me huh.quote>

Likisy is not liking this, he sure isn't.

Likisy shook his head and stopped infront of Tessa, giving her a deep look.quote>

If looks could kill...

Likisy: You shouldn't have run off like that Jen, you know the rules.quote>

Didn't Tessa introduce herself to Vannessa as Tessa? Ergo, why is he calling her Jen?

Tessa: I'm sorry dad, just wanted to have some fun.quote>

They've invented computer games for that purpose you know.

Likisy: Jen, may i have a word with you? I have a message from your mother.quote>

Who couldn't bring it herself because? (Just throwing up things that might cause Vannessa to become suspicious)

Likisy: Lez got word from up top, we have concrete leads. Strike teams are en route and will arrive within the hour to make our move.

Tessa: Holy hell finally. Who we looking for?

Likisy: You're...not going to like this...quote>

Her father? No, very unlikely. Vannessa's father? Possibly, this was rumoured previously in the story. But how could Likisy already now that she and Vannessa are friends?

[Patricius Maximus 236]

That dark figure is quite interesting, and mysterious. I also think that WTC may have some foreshadowing in it...

Venessa being a lesbian is a nice twist, although I am very much afraid of that asassin, and I think that Venessa may have some secrets to hide.

[Bigbuilder 0]

The situation doesn't seem to be getting any better, in fact it has gotten worse because of the assassin. I guess we will have to wait and see what is going to happen next.

Misa: Can't be that hard, you wern't even that far underground.quote>

Okay so I made a tech error, sue me. Or better yet, sue Vannessa's rich daddy.

Tessa: You know this won't continue much longer. Whoever they are, they will be found.quote>

Yes, but when, and at what cost?quote>

Misa: Hopefully only their cost.quote>

There's always a cost. Haven't you been reading Follomer? 

Likisy shook his head and stopped infront of Tessa, giving her a deep look.quote>

If looks could kill...quote>

Misa: Runpuc?

Death-sight? Or is that Deadly sight? ... Seeing Death? Okay, I'll stop.quote>

Death-sight = Having sight that does kill. Deadly sight = Having sight that could kill. Seeing Death = Becoming new cast in the Sixth Sense.

Likisy: You shouldn't have run off like that Jen, you know the rules.quote>

Jennifer could be her middle name.

They've invented computer games for that purpose you know.quote>

Misa: Yes.quote>

Going out into a big...BIG city at night with all the lights around you and then dancing the night away in upbeat music that rumbles the very core of yourself giving you an adrenaline rush? One of my fantasies but I usually choose computer games too.

Likisy: Jen, may i have a word with you? I have a message from your mother.quote>

Who couldn't bring it herself because? (Just throwing up things that might cause Vannessa to become suspicious)quote>

Misa: If she isn't already.quote>

Lez is the Intel officer, she needs to stay at her post in the safehouse watching over the situtation as it develops.

Likisy: Lez got word from up top, we have concrete leads. Strike teams are en route and will arrive within the hour to make our move.

The sniper leaned against the railing on the edge of the roof and aimed down the scope, accounting for the slightest wind resistance and distance.

The sniper put a finger to his ear and held it there.

Sniper: Targets in sight...quote>

This can't be good, can it?

Apparently, they found out about Tessa's appearance. I told you she was to famous to go on an undercover operation.quote>

Misa: Should I kick him over the edge?quote>

I'd love to see that. One of Shepards Renegade abilities during a convo in his new game, Mass Effect: Lynais City!

Around the same moment, news came in through executive channels. Lieutenant Colonel Crushedcar was on duty at the base, overseeing the mobilization of a special forces platoon.

Private: Sir, urgent message from the Capital.

The Colonel took the message from the private's hand and read it to himself. He then looked up and turned to the Private.

Lt. Colonel Crushedcar: Call readiness alert and prep a flight of transports. We've got our go ahead.quote>

Judging from the newpaper, they've heard about the US carrier changing course? Or did they also just found out about the lead regarding the terrorists?quote>

Misa: Carrier changing course? Where did that come from?

quote>

That was from the newspaper, and yes it was about the terrorist lead.

[Follarch 326]

 

Tessa, Likisy and Vannessa are in mortal danger as a Terrorist Assassin brings them into his ironsights. Chancellor Tristan fights to understand exactly who Rua is and how he managed to get into the Chancellor's War Room undetected and then escape, and news from abroad continues to be unsettling.

----------------------------------------------

ComputerGuy890100: Lol, your avatar fits well with your comments.

Thank you for the compliments on the story! 

Patricius Maximus: There are secrets everywhere in that city. It definitely needs a deep government cleansing.

Bigbuilder: Situations just love to be down in the dumps in Follomer, though that's nothing new by now. lol

[Follarch 326]

Right Afterward...

Cheltali Airforce Base, the main staging point for Follomer's west coast Air Defense Force. Housing 30 to 40 L-25 Phoenixs' at any given time, the base can scramble 2 flights of 4 fighters in less than 8 minutes.

At the command building, thing's went from on edge to crazy pretty quick.

Lt. Colonel Crushedcar: Call readiness alert and prep a flight of transports. We've got our go ahead.

Private: Yes sir! Attention base personnel, code yellow, all Gryphon crews to your transports. Phoenix pilots to your birds. This is not a drill. Repeat, this is not a drill--

Around the base, an alert siren started going off and personnel ran from place to place. Pilots disembarked their Humvees and went to their planes. They would soon be getting destination targets once prepped.

The first plane left the tarmac and onto the taxi-way.

Phoenix Pilot: Thrusters at 100 percent, electronics engaged and ready, all flight systems able.

Tower:  Lowjack one, you're cleared for takeoff.

Lowjack one nodded to himself and revved up the thrusters before disengaging the brakes. The afterburners propelled the jet down the runway and then lifted off the ground, tearing through the air.

Lt. Colonel Crushedcar: Lowjack one, your mission is to cooperate with our agents on the ground at Lynais city. Stay at high altitude and provide oversight to our inbound strike teams.

The pilot then titled his controls to the right and his jet glided to the side, turning toward the south coast.

Phoenix Pilot: Acknowledged.

Lt. Colonel Crushedcar:  Be aware, there's a storm in the area, in order to provide oversight, you need to remain under the cloudcover and use thermal imaging.

Phoenix Pilot: Copy all Colonel, I'm inbound.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Vahr 341]

Interesting, so the airforce is moving out.

Nice airport! Its very well built. Trees are a tad close, but Follomer is wooded so...

[Blazerhawk 162]

Nice airplanes and airbase to go along with a good story. I wonder what this means for Follomer...

Where did you get those fighters?

[SounderBruce 173]

I love your airplanes and military installation...good newspaper on the 11th page...thanks for including my CJ in there!

You still use those very fuel thirsty Humvees? I thought that Follomer would have made something more advanced, sommething more enviromentally friendly. They seem to care about that, judging by the 4+ PEG artificial trees next to the runway.

Hmm, not much else to say about the update. Let's just keep it on: I can't wait to see what happens.

Is that a Military base??? (or, the airport...)

Even though, nice work. Even though this is my first time posting in this thread, this seems to be interesting...

[Patricius Maximus 236]

A good update. I do wish the pilots luck on whatever they're up to.

Perhaps the artificial trees are designed to negate the effects of the humvees.

[Schulmanator 5,793]

Pix look good and I have got to say the AF is exceptionally speedy in their scrambling. A tribute to their excellent training.

[penguin007 27]

Awesome airbase there can't wait for more

Will

[Bigbuilder 0]

The airforce has gotten involved now and very quickly too. I wonder what is going to happen next. I guess I'll have to wait until next update.

P.S. The airforce base looks great. 

[Follarch 326]

Now featuring more news and an International Section

for both real world and City Journal countries!

[SounderBruce 173]

Very nice new newspaper! Love the grid layout for the suburbs and the retail boom!

[Follarch 326]

A brand spankin new City Journal from yours truly. This time though, Follomer and skyscrapers are nowhere in sight!

Go check it out!

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Death-sight = Having sight that does kill. Deadly sight = Having sight that could kill. Seeing Death = Becoming new cast in the Sixth Sense. quote>

The Ancaron language. Good for the general idea, not quite as good for the specifics. Of corse, you could always add to it to make it more specific.

monrunpuc: deadly sight or death sight

omrunpuc: seeing death

runompuc.: the eye dies

Jennifer could be her middle name. quote>

Ancaron don't have middle names.

Looks like something from Leech Labs.

Fuel cell powered Humvees?

[jacqulina 162]

hello my friend,wow a lot to catch up with,wonderfull work as you allways do,and very interesting newspapers,great read.

[TomMCityfan2 0]

Is this the end of Follomer, or just a second CJ for fun?

[i_love_lamp 0]

Nice story here! And i see you've used the Russian Su-47 here, nice

[cacks 41]

I love this, I just spent an hour and a half quick reading and admiring all the buildings and tension (I'm sorry to say I laughed a bit when I read the airport massacre, just got COD 4 weeks ago and that mission is still burning in my mind... You should have used an ambulance as the get away vehicle ). This has to be one, if not the best CJ I have ever seen - scrap that - this is the best CJ I have ever seen (followed by Franklin county, Virgin shores, and the random youtube videos made by ErwinNegentig... Edit: and of course Haljakey).

You must be super talented to be running more than 1 CJ in parallel!

Putting that huge residential development right next to the Airforce base might compromise security a bit (Uniden Airport pt2)?

[Renedius 25]

great my friend

[Follarch 326]

Jennifer could be her middle name. quote>

Ancaron don't have middle names.quote>

Then some Ancaron must have the same exact name here and there without that extra diversity.

After the dialogue between Likisy and Tessa.

What does the Ancaron versions look like?

Tower:  Lowjack one, you're cleared for takeoff.quote>

Misa: Lowjack?quote>

They like to give squadron pilots codenames.

I'm sure the military would love that.

[jacqulina 162]

wonderfull as allways my friend

[Schulmanator 5,793]

Welcome back from vacation. Did you bring us back any souvenirs?

[penguin007 27]

As always awesome pics and great storyline

Will

[Follarch 326]

 

It seems the calvary is coming to the rescue as Chancellor Tristan acts on those coordinates the shady informer gave him. But will Tessa and Likisy escape from the assassin's ironsights?

------------------------------------------------------------

Blue Lightning: The airforce is flying away! 

Follomer loves trees, but they did get rid of the trees that were closest to the aircraft's flight path areas.

crushedcar: Thanks for the compliments! This means that Follomer will once again prevail!

Those fighters were courtesy of Leech of Leech Labs. Beautiful little buggers aren't they.

ComputerGuy890100: Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the newspaper and you're welcome.

Korot: Humvee's tend to be the "in" vehicle for militaries these days. lol And who say's they can't be using better engines and fuel systems?

TomMCityfan2: Yes, that is an Army Airforce base.

And thank's for dropping by Follomer! Glad to see new faces.

Patricius Maximus: Well, those trees were constructed to negate the jet exhaust of planes taking off, but I guess they work with other objects around as well.

Schulmanator: Gotta love the Airforce for being timely and speedy. Definitely a tribute.

penguin007: Thank you for the compliment!

Bigbuilder: We have to show off our aerial might sooner or later. And thanks for your compliment on the base!

ComputerGuy890100²: Thanks for liking the newspaper! I still have to develop that suburb though lol.

jacqulina: Welcome back to Follomer jacki! Glad you still enjoy Follomer as you did.

TomMCityfan2²: No, I was just advertising my new "pet project" CJ for you guys and girls. Follomer still goes on!

i_love_lamp: Thank you for the compliment, and I love the design of the Su-47, especially the reversed wings.

cacks: Haha, glad you read all of it to this point! Always happy to see new readers for this. And I guess I should have used an ambulance huh, but then I think some readers would have chewed me out even more for unoriginality.

So glad you think this is one of the best CJ's you've read! It's an honor to have a user think that.

Renedius: Thank you for the compliment.

jacqulina²: Thanks jacki.

Schulmanator²: Just more Follomer storyline. And fancy edited pics.

penguin007²: Thank you again penguin, for the compliments.
