===Operation: Wasp===
The Battlehawks finished restocking in Tynte Mall in Pimbank and headed towards the ominous Ridleybank.
The Battlehawks, in an attempt to distract the Ridley Resistance Front Horde began running repairs and barricading in Ridleybank while also maintaining part of Western Pimbank. The team repaired and barricaded as many buildings as possible, luring the horde to attack the central and east Ridleybank areas. The Battlehawks showed their true colors as they distracted the RRF horde, while surviving in the middle of a massive war outbreak. The Battlehawks also helped out allies while keeping up their hard work, and they even had some singing!
On Sept 16th the first Singing Real Time Strike Adalbert Hospital and Blomfield PD. Zuton Templarvis, and Zombiedodger went in and recovered the buildings while singing songs to the zombies! Zuton went up first with her song, ” I killed a zed and I liked it The waste of the barhah slap, kick, I killed a zed just to try it I hope Lord Moloch don’t mind it, It felt so strong, it felt so right Don’t mean I will survive the night I killed a zed and I liked it, I liked it.” (Katie Perry, I kissed a girl) Next came Templarvis with his song, “When they kick at your front door, how are you gonna come Screaming for help or on the trigger of your gun When the zeds break in, how are you gonna go Dragged out the street or waiting with your gun, You can crush us, you can bite us But you'll have to answer to, oh, the guns of Malton!” (Guns of Brixton) Zombiedodger went on next, ” Take me down to Malton city, where the zeds are rotten and the smell is whiffy, Oh won't you please take me home, yeah yeah” (Guns N Roses) Finished off by Templravis delivering the killing blow to a zombie with a headshot from a flare gun!
On Sept 18th, before they had to leave, Team Battlehawk made one last Singing Real Time Strike. Kathryn Nozed and Azula Invidia broke into Blackmore NT, singing a duet. Azula began the song, “We are the fortress - my friends - and we'll keep on fighting till the end We are the fortress” Then Kathryn came up to finish it, “We are the fortress No time for zombies 'Cause we are the fortress of Malton” (We are the Champions, Queen) They took down as many zombies as they could then finished of by leaving a fresh spray on the wall, "XOXO Fortress Girls"
They moved down to Stanbury Village and Nichols Mall, escaping the first of War just as it began to crush them. They finished their mission in just in time for The Fortress 2008 Party.
A number of other things happened during this entire operation. Kathryn Nozed and Zombiedodger earned their promotions to Conflict Trooper! Derivator, a Battlehawk Legend returned near the end of the operation, and upon the operations end, Arnie Small earned his Promotion to Freedom Fighter, JohnC8X earned his promotion to Deployment Soldier, and Azula Invidia earned her Promotion to Battalion Ranger! Private Mendoza was also recognized for his work on ensuring communications were strong with the Battlehawks and their Allies!
The Battlehawks proved once again that they were a force to be reckoned with and an important part of The Fortress Team!
