MaxJ1800: Sniper isn't going to have any fun in this chapter. Becky will finally come face to face with the one who actually pulled the trigger. The war ends now.

"You sure? I can always conduct the battle from here." Tim offers.
"Oh you," Becky giggles. "I'll be fine. Go run my planet."
"Yes ma'am." Tim solutes and heads for the shoreline. He pulls out his communicator and presses the button. "You guys positioned?"
"We've got all points covered. If the warlords try something, we shall be ready." Gladiator replies.
"Good. Make sure I return to a living Becky." Tim says and takes to the skies after breaking communications.

"Why must you listen to that loud noise?" Emma asks Caelum. The male X weapon had an ear piece in his left ear connected to an MP3 player. Caelum rolls his eyes at her.
"If you're going to live on a planet, you've got to amerce yourself in that planet's culture. Music is apart of Earth's culture."
"Yes, but that isn't music, that's noise."
"I think you need to remind yourself of the definition of the word 'noise'." Caelum quips back as Tim enters the room.
"Tim, will you please tell your brother that his kind of music is noise?" Emma asks.
"Sorry, I've got a war to run." Tim replies and presses a button activating a monitor. It displays the fleet that was finished with its refits. "You ready?" he asks Caelum.
"I don't know what's more ironic, you running Lexicon, or me being the fleet captain of refitted Decimalian ships that are fighting in a Lexiconian civil war." Caelum says smirking.
"The fleet is ready to go...,it just needs its commander." a voice says over the com link.
"Then activate that damned transporter." Caelum says and he and Emma vanish.
"This is Lexicon High command. I don't have to tell you that winning this next battle is vital. Win here and we finish this war. I shall be monitoring the battle from here." Tim says to the entire fleet. "Remember, these are the people that overturned your government in the first place. These are the people that wants nothing but war. End this and peace can be insured in this part of the galaxy." The fleet turns towards space and they go into FLT flight.

"Damn it. The guard is here in full force. We're going to have to take out the one on the roof first. She'll cut us down in a second with that weapon." the head assassin quietly says to his fellows.
"I'll deal with her." a second says and brings a rifle out and takes careful aim.
"Remember, don't kill the guard. We only after the princess."
"No problem." the one with the rifle says and fires. the bolt of energy lances out and completely destroy Sniper's weapon.

***

"Shit! This is Sniper, we've got a big problem! I've just had my weapon taken out. I'm going to be useless."
"Quick Strike, get to the roof and get Sniper out of there." Gladiator orders.

"Did you hear that?" Becky asks Huggy as she was in the library reading. Huggy shakes his head. If there was trouble the guard would deal with it. His charge wasn't ready to go back into a fight just yet. "I swore I heard something. I might not have as good of super hearing on Lexicon, but I know I heard something." She heads out of the library and heads for the nearest window. She could see a fire fight taking place. Becky runs to her bed room with Huggy in hot pursuit. He shouts at her but she doesn't listen. She gets on her WordGirl Costume and puts on the headband and wrist reflectors. Huggy shouts at her again.
"Look, I know I've had a hard time recently and I'm partially to blame for not letting things out, but I'm far from being a damsel in distress. Gravity or no gravity, I can still fight! Word up!" she cries and flies out of the opened window. Huggy slaps his forehead and runs out to join his charge. If she was being bull headed about fighting when she shouldn't, then she was going to be fine.

"Caelum, you are the damnedest commander I know." Tim quietly states watching the two fleets shoot at each other. Caelum had the fleet come out of ftl flight mode right on top of the opposing fleet. He frowns. There was something at the edge of the sensors that kept popping in and out of the outer edge of the screen. "Can we increase the range of the planetary sensors?" Tim asks over the com-link.
"The sensor net on the dark side of the planet might do better." the tech on the other end states.
"Switch over then. I didn't realize that the Lexiconian sun could interfere." Tim states. When the few changes he could see a massive fleet of Consortium slowly making its way towards the two warring fleets. "Caelum!"
"What? I'm trying to win here." Caelum quips.
"Check your sensors. There's a large Consortium fleet heading your way."
"What are you...,shit! Emma just spotted them."
"Don't get into a fire fight with them. They'll destroy you."
"Like I have to be told that."

"So, you are the ones that killed my mother." Becky growls.
"Your mother is probably rolling in her grave seeing her daughter prancing around in such an outfit." the head assassin retorts. "That is, if there were enough of her to put in a grave." Becky snarls. The super soldier DNA that was in her blood stream activates. With the new DNA that had found its way into her blood stream after the last session with Tim along with the genetic code that was already in her DNA, the gravity of Lexicon was no longer an issue.

***

"Lexiconian fleets, lower your shields and surrender. Lexicon is to be turned into a territory of The Consortium." the Consortium fleet commander states. The fleet that was under the command of the warlords turns and attacks.
"Those fools! They'll get killed! Get us out of here now!" Caelum barks. Unfortunately, tractor beams latch on to the other Lexiconian ships. "Shit." Caelum whispers. "We're screwed."

***

"Why?" Becky growls as she has the head assassin in a painful hold.
"We were hired. We do whatever job comes up." he replies in pain.
"Then why did the warlords have my mother killed!?" she demands.
"Unlike your grandmother, your mother thought the war was a useless waste of time. So, she devised a brilliant plan to cripple Decimal and make them negotiate for peace. It worked, but there were members of the military that wanted Decimal to burn so they took over the government."
"And why was I able to escape?" Becky growls.
"Huggy was ordered to get you off the planet if anything happened that threaten the royal family." he answers.
"You will answer for your crimes. Now! Where are the warlords!?" Becky growls.
"At their arctic base." he moans. Becky gives one more punch and he falls like a sack of potatoes. The one that had taken Sniper fires, but the energy blast is reflect by Becky and it hits the ground near him. Quick Strike takes that opportunity to take him down.
"They have been dealt with my Princess." Gladiator states.
"Gather the guard...,we're going warlord hunting."
"Princess...,if your consort...,"
"I need to do this, Gladiator. This has to end."
"I don't have any weapons." sniper states.
"Here, he's got a boat load of caps for that thing." Quick Strike says and tosses the rifle at Sniper who catches it.
"Well, no wonder he got me. This thing has been modified beyond the normal specs. I would have never won against him,." Sniper states.
"Let me kill the bastard." Quick Strike growls.
"You've avenged me, Quick Strike." Sniper says calming her fellow guardsmen down.
"IQ, activate the transporter and get us to the arctic region. I know where they are hiding." Gladiator orders through the com-link.

The two Lexiconian fleets were subdued. The Consortium fleet turns towards Lexicon. Before they could though, another fleet appears in front of them.
"Consortium fleet! This aggressive action into another planet's space will not be tolerated anymore by Decimal. Let those Lexiconian ships go and leave Lexiconian space now!"
"Make us." the Consortium commander replies.
"Oh, I was hoping you'd say that." the Decimalian commander says and the Decimalian fleet opens fire.

***

"Yes!" Tim celebrates seeing that Caelum's fleet had gotten away. The Decimalian fleet pushes the Consortium fleet away from Lexiconian space."
"My liege, we're here on the private retreat. We've found the unconscious bodies of a group of assassins employed by the warlords." a security officer starts reporting.
"Where's the guard and my princess?" Tim asks.
"I don't know, yet. The transport is gone though."
"Do we have any intelligence on where the warlords are hiding?"
"Yes, a secret base in the arctic."
"Fuck! Becky is going to turn my hair grey before I'm thirty!" Tim shouts. "Caelum, come in."
"What now?"
"Becky's gone warlord hunting. Get your ass back here now!" Tim says.
"Don't have to tell me twice." Caelum retorts. Tim changes into his MathWiz attire and heads out of the palace. He takes to the skies and heads due north.

"How could you have managed to get past our guards!?" the head warlord states but is roughly pressed up against a wall.
"Shut up." Becky growls. "I'm in charge here and I ask the questions." The Predicate guard surround the other warlords as Becky starts choking the life out of the head. "It was you wasn't it!? You are the one responsible for this madness!"
"Your...,mother...,was weak." he gasps out.
"My mother was the greatest leader that Lexicon ever had. You had no right to kill her!" Becky shouts back.
"Decimalians are to be slaughtered. That's what they are good for"
"My consort is a Decimalian! The war is fucking over you bastard! You've lost!" Becky shouts now losing complete control of her vocabulary. Gladiator winces. Her mother got like that when she lost her temper.
Becky!" Tim shouts coming into the room. He notices that the situation was quite under control. "Well, I guess you didn't need my help."
"It's alright, I always appreciate your help." Becky says now back under control. She gives the warlord a final punch and he falls to the ground.

"This is a INN special report. The Lexiconian civil war is over. The new democratic government is now fully in power. the monarchy wasn't completely dissolved though. If Lexicon falls into another civil war, the royals will return to resolve the dispute. The warlords were given a swift trial and an even more swift execution. The assassins were also sentenced to death. The royals are returning to Earth.
"The Consortium, embarrassed at their last conflict, has pulled far away from Lexiconian space. Decimal's fleet is now back up to pre-Archive levels, and Lexicon's military isn't far behind. It appears the the two worlds are finally at peace, but if the Consortium decides to attack, it might be a long day for them in this reporter's opinion."
