Chapter 1:The Ikatangan Story

Ikatanga was fed up.He spent weeks researching the medical properties of twignite.Tanga-Bunga stepped forward.''I realized that if we had vespene gas squeezed into a vacuum with neutrons and aimed it at a piece of unanlium sulphate(UlSO4)you might get unaakium vespanium(UaVpS7)one of the key compounds of twignite,'' he explained.Unaakium was much more stable than unanlium and was even discovered to have medical properties.''We need to treat soldiers in battle with the aliens,'' Ikatanga stated.''I just don't think it's enough to ionize 322Ul to make 315Ua using vespene gas and leave it at that.'' ''What are they talking about?'' little Igia asked Twig. ''They're looking for a new compound,'' he replied.''What type?'' asked 10-year-old Ikia.''Interesting,that one.Uncle Tanga-Bunga is talking about superheavy elements.'' ''Superheavy elements!Like in my wand?'' Ikia whispered.''Sorry,but I need to get on with my research.'' So off he went,and Igia and Ikia whispered to each other.

Chapter 3:The Secret Code

ONCE Ikatanga and his small army had broken through the Secret Entrance,they found old leather-coats,lots and lots of big books,but they were particularly intrigued by a code that was written in large block capitals:15769. Ikatanga held the note and declared,''This will be our Secret Code!'' Twig was astonished that he could find such a valuable thing in such a messy room.The code was actually information concocted by their group as part of a sabotage operation. Ikatanga,though,was convinced that if the Gollarks had stolen information from Overican encoders and decoders,they would have threatened everyone who was under the rule of the Duke of Chika.The sabotage operation on the enemy capital would have failed.They needed to activate ''Operation Forest'' before the Gollarks invaded.Ikatanga detected Gollark information,and simply took it.Operation Forest was activated at last!

Ikatanga the Great and the Secret Entrance:Chapter 5

The Dominators attacked!They rampaged through the forest,towards the town of Ritaeringa,and towards our soldiers.Their artillery began to bombard Ritaeringa.Our heroic troops fought back furiously,trying to defend the town from being destroyed. We threw fireball missiles to set fire to the artillery,and at the same time,we advanced onto the enemy lines. ''We have to enter right into there,'' instigated the king of the Dominators to his soldiers. ''We have to destroy this town!'' Meanwhile,Ikatanga the Great whispered,''There they are!'' he exclaimed.And the battle continued.

Ikatanga the Great and the Secret Entrance:Chapter 4

Emprryrean was a war zone in 2204-2209.A constant fight between Overicans and Ifungans.There were few vespene gas generators in Emprryean,and every settlement except Akbunga was a small town.At the same time in Overica,a sudden blast of ash,dust,stones and gas blasted its way through the Overican forest,streams and sparks splattering on the houses and vespene gas generators,for the town that it hit,Kaya,lied right in the middle of a line that divides the three landmasses.Meanwhile in Emprryean,Ikatanga and his forces had defeated the Ifungan fleet,but the Dominators had soared around the capital,almost defeating the protesters.''We have to push the Dominators towards the north of Emprryean and into Tergiverse 4,'' urged Ikatanga.The Seal in the Moon wasn't convinced. ''We must destroy the Dominator menace with our underwater artillery which will weaken them,'' he replied grudgingly,with another loud grunt(as in seal language to make up a sentence)Until...

Ikatanga the Great and the Secret Entrance:Chapter 3

Against the Dominators,the fighting was at its worst, especially in Akbunga.The sluishing mud that the Overican guards faced made the march very arduous.Twig(or the Seal in the Moon as we called him)suggested that we should weaken the Dominator army by attacking some of their ships.The River Akbunga was a complicated stretch of narrow lakes,so Ikatanga crossed a narrow path through to attack.But it was almost too late.The Dominator ships had broken through the river and attacking a small town near Akbunga.Then the Emprryeans launched a small fleet to attack the Dominator ships.

Ikatanga the Great and the Secret Entrance:Chapter 2

Ikatanga had reached the town at last! All the pandemonium of a battle between the two regions,but now had the Dominators broken through?They could only imagine... In Akbunga,the capital,protests had overrun the Emprryean government.Buildings set on fire,destroyed by guns and lightsavers,only for the protesters to rampage through the city.Twig wanted his army to join the protesters,but Ikatanga replied,''No!If we join the protesters,Akbunga might fall!'' Just at that moment,a postman came through with a letter for the seals.It said:OLH-10367.''Quick!'' Ikatanga cried.''That's our code!'' And...

Ikatanga the Great and the Secret Entrance:Chapter 1

One day,Ikatanga was in the Inatanga Plains.He and his troops were prepared for the Dominator attack and at this point,unexplicably,they seemed to be soaring round the main town with an enormous army.Ikatanga,Twig and the other leaders knew they had to lead their army.''Across the river!'' bellowed Tanga-Bunga.''That means you!'' he added in a more high-pitched voice.''Come on!''he continued in a more conciliatory tone.The troops slowly began to move out of the river.The enemy horses were not prepared for the attack and...CRASH!!! The enemy spears shattered into pieces by seals!!! Ikatanga fired a gun at the enemy lines and the Dominators fired back.''It's not exactly there in that town,'' whispered Ikatanga.

INATANGA UNDER ATTACK

As they landed,the mystery of the aliens had been unlocked.Across the River Overica,the huge river that divided Overica from Ifunga,were alien cavalry ready to cross with their ships.Ikatanga thought of the first Ifungan occupation(1956-1958),when the Dominators(a group of aliens armed with heavy weapons)entered Overica. With 15,904 troops,the Dominators entered the Galactic Gate(as if none of the Ifungans had entered Overica before)and invaded the countries of Attackinga and Acki Acki.They continued nonchalantly towards Tunga,destroying 24 settlements. But this invasion was different.18,000 Dominators spread across the Fingerian front,encountering resistance from the Arm regions,including Overica.2,540 Dominator cavalry struggled in the north of Overica.Ikatanga told Twig:''Inatanga is under attack-the pulverizers-quickly,''he demanded to his soldiers.They built missile towers,and Ikatanga and his soldiers were nonchalantly off to the shore.They saw a huge transport ship,the Chikabanga.After many hits from the Overican pulverizers,the Chikabanga exploded with a huge CRASH!.

THE JOURNEY TO INATANGA

One day,there was a seal called Ikatanga.A very determined seal he was.And one day,he vowed to circle from his home in Tuktunga to the Ifungan cities of Core Prime and Chungatank.Boldly enough he and his companions went to Chika to be signed in as Vice-Commanders of the Reign of the Overican Army(VCROA). Laura had already been signed in as Commander,so they made great friends with Commander Laura.Ikatanga had always been armed with information and a lightsaver that only destroyed aliens from Ifunga.''I vow to be signed in as Vice-Commander,''he told Commander Laura,''for when I start on my expedition,I will discover a whole new world.''Commander Laura was astonished,although she knew Ikatanga.''How are we going to get there?'' asked little Pik-Pok quizzically.''We never know how to get there at the very start,''replied Twig.Ikatanga also knew a song that contained principles of different worlds.The words ran: In the gliding morning the sun shines bright, Slowly plunging towards the freshwater stream. A bird or two, crossing the sky, As I walk through through the rocky dyke. So they were off!They encountered alien aircraft,dangerous rockets,rumbling tanks,but they did not stop.They went through the air...without stopping...

Going to Tuka

It was a warm day.We went to Tuka,and we got the relaxing train to Finga-Finga. When we arrived,passengers crowding up to the station at Tuktunga filled the whole platform.They assumed that the huge 15-coach train had arrived at the previous station slowly and calmly,therefore it was late.At exactly 11:13,the train clambered slowly into the platform,and we got in,at last.The conductor said it would be 85 Overican pennies(£1)cheaper if you had an SRT.This we had,so it was 15 Overican pounds for all of us to go to Tuka.The underwater train passed by rocks and river,corals and crackling crackly ridges.At last,we arrived at Finga-Finga.Above Finga-Finga underwater station,were populated,urban areas. The 12:21 train to Tuka via Chika Harbour-because of waste,did not stop,surprisingly,at Bujio B. We arrived at Tuka.And...

The C120

The next day was the coldest of all.Bitter winds and increasing ice,at -60, whizzed over us as we found shelter in the flying tanks.Our seal army marched bravely forward towards Tuka.Our troops were only 500 main troops,300 defendants,70 flying tanks and 40 normal tanks.Thousands of aliens were landing and our flying tanks were incessantly attacked by intimidator machines.It was 3:30 am.The aliens rushed through the city,but the Overican people fought back with accompaniment from our armies.The aliens fired again and again towards Tuka,but only a few dozen aliens were left.46 flying tanks and nearly all of the normal tanks were destroyed.Of our rocket scout team,lots stayed functioning.''Find evidence of recent eruptions on Mount Kaya.''I said.And so we did. In the aliens' base,I am sure they were planning to land in Tuka for the second time. Tanga-Bunga thought that if the aliens had come here to steal resources,we must fight them back.But we had already fought against them,I said.''And we had victories over them!'' ''Why bother attacking the aliens' base?''I added.The aliens were running towards Chika Harbour with ANOTHER ARMY!

The C120

It was a freezing day.The temperatures reached -17 and we wanted to get transport... but we absolutely needed to find some form of travel. We had no communication,guns or massive ravening tanks.We had no defence around our small cave either. After hours of searching, we found a huge ROCKET! We were sure it weighed thousands of tonnes.It said on its wing,it was the C120. However,there was a problem.The rocket was full of slimy aliens armed with guns,towers and tanks.They fired as soon as we got near to the rocket.We were hit by pellets and bullets,thereby causing many casualties.We went placidly among the rocks,eventually entering the rocket.We suddenly recognised who the aliens were.They were vexatious to our laws! We crushed and defeated their tanks,but the aliens were running towards us faster than we expected.Twig was the external commander.He told Aula and Pik-Pok not to stay close to Tanga-Bunga and me.Meanwhile,the aliens' guns were knocked over and they lost their slime. After a gruelling battle,we secured the C120 for the small town of Tuktunga! Thermal vents and chemicals were found in the lab...but our supplies were running low.Twig wanted to enter in a flying tank and explore the River Overica.We all agreed, so we went into a flying tank and set off for Chika Harbour,25 kilometres away.Near Tuka,aliens were running towards Tuka with INTIMIDATOR MACHINES!What an earth were intimidator machines?

In the forest

I wake up;with a dream. For in the gliding morning the sun glows bright; Slowly plunging towards the freshwater stream. A bird or two, crossing the sky; As I walk through the hilly dyke. I see the green ogres, standing upon the ground; And the vast forest that seems to have no bound. I walk through the path, without a murmur; As I vowed to be learner of this great land. Finally I reach the top; But I am scared that I might flop. But look at the beautiful sight; No people in spite of me; The golden sun, made out of brass, Shining on the green green grass. Far-away lands I can see. The vast forest covers the plain, Caressed by waters of the main river. But now I think I have to go back; But I will miss the land I have never trampled on.

I wake up;with a dream. For in the gliding morning the sun glows bright; Slowly plunging towards the freshwater stream. A bird or two,crossing the sky; As I walk through the hilly dyke. A light blue shore across the horizon; Far away from the green ogres that stand upon the ground. And the vast sea that seems to have no bound. I reach the top,without a murmur; As I vowed to be learner of this great land.

Overica

OVERICA might be the region where everything was industrialized over recent years,and storehouse still are common.However,the cons of going to Overica do not stop it from being the greatest empire in the whole world of Obaseda.In the first years Overica emerged,things were stabilized.But in medieval times,Overica got into trouble.The constant fighting between Overica and Ifunga led to shortage of resources in both countries.Ifunga was rich in minerals and valuable metals,but even this could not stop the caravans sending only small amounts,particularly on the border in an Overican settlement.A small region called Fingeria also resisted against the fighting.Tunga II,King of Overica,demanded that the border zone was actually under Overican control.King Tunga III once said,''We will not tolerate the fighting here.'' ''We will have to lead a rebellion against Ifungan troops on the border.'' So he and his huge army marched towards Tyuk on the southern coast of Ifunga,where they would get the least damage from Ifungan troops.And so they succeded.An extra territory for the Overicans!In the end,he was defeated in the capital. Despite the fighting on the border and on the Fingerian Front,things were getting on quite well in Overica.Farming took a major part in Overican life.Extra resource bonuses were made,and in spring fruits entwined with stems of mint plants filled the bushes,despite the confusions with the limits of resources you could have,controlled by the King of Overica.Fighting continued until Overica and Fingeria made an incessant attack on Ifunga in 1823.By 1825,all of Ifunga was governed by Overican and Fingerian monarchs.Later in 1892,huge meteorites hit Northern Overica caused by a sweeping meteor hurricane,later hitting the east of the Fingerian coast.And Overican History comes in modern times...

Overica in struggle for domination

Overica continued with the conflict against Ifunga.Despite lots of defeats,the Overican people flourished across all of the continent.It was only in the 1600s when Overica and Ifunga made peace. In 1434,the small Fingerian Empire crumbled after many attacks,and relocated to the mountains outside Overica.Ifungan troops landed on the border with Overica.Lots of Overican-controlled resources were found until Ifungan troops destroyed them.They were planning to invade Overica with 23,000 troops(quite a lot!)The defending army had 2,000 troops in the east and 4,000 ready for battle.Ifungans were also anxious to control North Overica, although it had thousands of defending troops positioned in Dijingbac,to the north of Inatanga.They were in charge of the Okbanga unit,powerful but weak against scout horses and other unarmed cavalry.After the failed invasion,King Tunga launched a sneak attack as a punishment.With 500 boats,the Overicans planned to invade South Ifunga.The first stop for the invasion was Tyuk,regarded as a resource base with several fishermen. The resources were delivered to Chungatankas and,guess what...
