Part 4

The Devils Sanctuary has a very long military history. This part had stayed the same no matter what type of school it was. The JROTC was legendary for their skills and athletics. The girls in particular were cunning warriors that few expected.
    Vyska was a member of the JROTC, but at the moment, she was in art class. This meant that she and her fellow students would man the observation decks and report back to the schools head students.
    The field guns on the roof were loaded and ready before the dirigibles were even in range. The blimps began to maneuver for position.
    This is when Caith was woken up.
    His boss Scott called him up in the middle of a very nice dream about Caith being the Pink Ranger. The room shook, and Scott's voice could be heard.
    "Caith," said the voice, "Time to wake up and head to DS, they have a battle going on against Selah. Looks like they were caught off guard."
    Caith moved quickly to the bathroom. He showered, dressed, and was ready for the day. He jumped into the hall closet to get to work.
    The newsroom smelled of the last days popcorn fight. Caith didn't have much time to notice. He signed up for his air car, grabbed a camera, and headed out.
    The camera was actually a remote sensing device. Everything Caith would do would be recorded as he tried to get interviews and good shots.
    The air car was ready within 20 minutes of Caith's wake up call. It rose up to 800 feet above the ground and then toward DS at a rapid speed. Caith new it was aiming for the lunch area on the roof. He knew this very well. But he checked everything out to make sure.
    Ever since he landed on an apple tree in the middle of a zombie outbreak, he was cautious.
    The guns had already begun to fire. The loud explosions from the big guns could be heard for miles. They were all fakes. The guns were actually specialized cameras. They were aiming at the ships, and the computers downstairs estimated what was being hit. The clearer the shot, the better the gun aimed. So many of the engineers at the school worked hard to update the lenses and feedback mirrors.
    Vyska saw Caith, but paid no mind. She knew her brother would be there. His job was to record this kind of stuff. She knew he would get a shot of her, but not really show it off.
    That didn't bother her at all. She was busy spotting the different blimps, and what they had loaded up. A large hook and anchor was on one. She knew this was the invasion ship.
    She got a closer look, just to see what the warriors were doing it. This was how she saw him. A hot asian boy stood in Viking skirt and paint. His bare chest and lean figure made her swoon.
    "Do you have a read out on the invading party," asked the art teacher.
    "He's dreamy," said Vyska.
