The Hades Rebellion

During a joint Terran-Vasudan operation, rogue Terran forces fired on Vasudan forces with intent to kill. Naturally, the Vasudans defended themselves. The engagement field turned into a full warzone. As a result, the Galactic Terran Intelligence (GTI) sent in two wings to sanitize the area.

There were three transports, one freighter, and two or three wings of Terran and Vasudan forces. The first transport, Aries 1, was docked to a Vasudan freighter during the engagement and was destroyed along with the freighter. The second transport, Aries 2, escaped the engagement zone. The other, Aries 3, was making its way to the nearby listening post to spread the news of war with the Terrans. It was destroyed en route. Needless to say, if Aries 3 made it to the listening post, the Alliance would have been destroyed.

The freighter was undoubtedly transferring crew and supplies to Aries 1, and was suddenly interrupted when the Terrans fired on them. Alpha and Beta wings were forced to destroy the freighter as well.

Aries 2 escaped to Antares, where it was later destroyed by Alpha and Beta wings. In addition, the four or five Aten-class cruisers were destroyed to prevent the news of the engagement from leaking out. A Terran science vessel later jumped into the field of engagement, designation GTSC Einstein. It was later discovered that the Einstein was supposed to be destroyed in the Ross 128 event. The Einstein reported that it was carrying 'volatile materials', yet Terran Command ordered Alpha and Beta wings to destroy the GTSC Einstein anyway. Seconds before the Einstein was destroyed, it launched two escape pods, but they were not destroyed due to the massive energy readings coming off of the Einstein. A massive shockwave ensued with the destruction of the Einstein, but by that time the escape pods had escaped.

During a rescue operation to recover the escape pods, the Shivans attempted to destroy every ship in the vicinity. They were held back, but a second wave appeared. By that time, an unmarked Orion-class destroyer, its designation only GTD, arrived with about four wings of unidentified fighters that were invisible to sensors. As the Terran forces fought off the Shivan forces, the Orion destroyer picked up the first escape pod. After the 'GTD' left the area, the unidentified fighters then commenced a coup de'tat in an attempt to cover up the operation. Alpha and Beta wings repelled the hostile wings. A second Orion destroyer entered the area, designation GTD Myrmidon. The last escape pod had been rescued, and Alpha and Beta wings returned to the GTD Krios.

It wasn't until a rogue cell in the GTI revealed itself that the friendly GTI realized that the unmarked destroyer was in fact a rogue GTI ship, unmarked to prevent tracking. The unidentified fighters were also identified and dubbed the GTF Loki, the pinnacle of stealth technology during then. However, a weakness in the stealth technology was found, and its strongest defense was exploited.

In a bold move, the GTI attacked the Krios with several wings of GTB Zeus bombers. The Krios was soon destroyed, but not before it launched several escape pods. Alpha and Beta wings saved the escape pods valiantly.

The surviors of the Krios were stationed onto the GTD Soyakaze, which soon spread the news of the rogue attacks. The Soyakaze attacked the GTI's base of operations, GTI Jotunheim. Alpha and Beta wings neutralized the station's defenses and nearly destroyed it when a huge warship, armed with two Shivan Flux Cannons, which soon proved to be the GTD Hades, the GTI's top project at the time. The Hades soon proceeded to launch many Loki-class fighters. The remaining bombers and fighters managed to neutralize the Hades, with the help of the GTC Orff. After the destruction of the GTD Hades, the GTA dissolved the GTI and created the GTVI, which was under strict supervision from the new GTVA.

Many people believe that the GTI's Hades rebellion was caused by the destruction of the GTD Legion, which was flagship of the GTI fleet. Its destruction at the hands of the SD Lucifer triggered a series of events that led to the Hades rebellion.

Afer the conclusion of the rebellion, the GTA and PVN buried the GTI's research and made it extremely difficult to anyone except the highest ranking officers to gather any information of the GTI's Shivan studies. Regardless of the GTVA's efforts, Bosch managed to find the information for ETAK.
