During the event of the Gorath disaster, the
Union of Earth came up with a decisive plan of
action. By constructing hundreds of rocket boosters
on the plains of ice of the South Pole, the combined
immortal force would push the Earth out of the
incoming collapsed star's path. Providing fast
ground cover for the team that manned these engines
was the V-TOL, or Vertical Take-Off and Landing
craft.
Unfortunately, during the test phase of the rocket
boosters, the extreme heat awoke a giant walrus
named Maguma. Trashing the power plant of the
facility, the scientist knew that they needed
to stop the animal. Their first effort, utilizing
the V-TOL, was to only cause a landslide and bury
the sabertoothed creature for the time being.
This first attempt was in vain, as rising from
the rocky aftermath Maguma charged the ship that
sought to bury it. Left with little option, the
pilot pulled the firing trigger to the laser beneath
the V-TOL. Seconds passed as blood was spilt in
its wake. Looking down, the team watched the dead
form of Maguma slump over; already it's life-giving
fluids starting to crystallize in the frigid air.
The animal was killed to save millions.
