Battle's End

[cityship]

The Ohm had retreated. The various GIA forces on Lirath were withdrawn.

Refugees were being treated and dropped off at the refugee camps, and the crew that had been left there was gathered up. There hadn't been any other outbursts of Catastrophist attacks--it seemed that all of them had either been taken out or killed. Those that had been captured quickly self-detonated their neural explosives to avoid questioning, though the bodies still remained for investigation. Plenty of dead Ohm were there for study as well. Perhaps now the forces aligned against the bug menace could get some answers.

Currently, the Trans 9 was in orbit around the planet the camps were on while Stacy regenerated, allowing them access to and communication with the GIA. Several of the surviving GIA ships were orbiting, making similar repairs. It would be there only briefly before moving out.

Life went on.

Except, of course, when it didn't.

There was no time to recover the countless bodies lost in battle and it wasn't safe to stay on Lirath after the attack. The Ohm could possibly come back in greater force. Only one body was gathered up, with great respect and dignity, and carried up to the Transmigration 9--Superman's.

However, despite the people lost on Lirath--refugees, soldiers, and crew alike--the Ohm had been hurt badly this day. A full invasion force had been defeated, sent running.

They could be beaten, after all.

Closed to Leon, council and command staff

Not long after Stacy had arrived in-orbit, a GIA shuttle left one of the ships, requesting permission to dock in Stacy's hangar.

It docked quickly, unloading its cargo: Admiral Kasna, of the GIA, along with a couple of bodyguards. After getting off the shuttle, Kasna quickly sent a message through the comms to the crew's command staff.

"Captain Kennedy, this is Admiral Kasna. I believe we have some things to discuss. Bring your command staff if you want and tell me where to meet you."

Ashley tried to look like she wasn't spying on the meeting that was going on inside the Precinct. She paced around the building, looking a little banged up, but none the worse for wear. She knew Leon was okay, but she needed to see him. And Nightwing, for that matter. She had to thank him for saving her. But mostly she needed to see Leon. When he was around it was okay.

She tried not to stare at the GIA guy as he left the building, and waited to the side for everyone to file out. She stepped in once she was sure Leon was the last one in there.

She peeked her head in but couldn't contain herself once she saw him. "Leon!" She jogged in to him and grabbed onto his arm. His nice, strong arms that made her safe. "We're really okay? It's really over?"
