◇ Story
The human evacuation plan to the Barnard’s Star system was executed, and five days after the large-scale gravitational anomaly triggered by humanity’s desperate counteroffensive, Operation Babylon, the people left behind on Earth continued their struggle for survival.
A small group of survivors gathered aboard the stranded U.S. aircraft carrier JFK, desperately seeking a place of safety.
That day, U.S. Marine Second Lieutenant Wilbert D. Collins, while on a reconnaissance mission, picked up a faint distress signal and set out to investigate.
