King destroyer of Coalition is aware of this and persuades his counsel to approve the making of a Silent bomber. The silent bomber is to be invisible to the eye and to other observation devices like the radar. The counsel is persuaded and they make a Silent bomber. Mike who is prince of Alliance is in love with Milka the Princess of Alliance, he uses the Silent bomber to spy on her before king Cutter attacks his kingdom. Mike uses the Silent Bomber to wipe out coalition kingdom. Mike and Milka in their shared destruction from the technology bring an end to destructive weapons for good.

In the Alliance kingdom, there was uproar in the counsel of governing rulers. The moderator was talking but nobody seemed to be listening, everybody was talking at once. “‘Order!, Oorder!, Order!” He wailed,. “You are all out of order and I am going to have the counsel suspended,” he threatened climbing on top of his speaking table waving his hands menacingly. Just then the front doors of the chambers opened and the king entered led by his two close aides. The counsel started to clamor on to their seats awkwardly with the moderator almost falling off his table as he sat embarrassingly.
King Destroyer took his usual address position and looked at the house. Within a minute it was all silent and everyone was looking expectantly at him. “That was very remarkable,” he began as everyone laughed embarrassedly,. “I have led this country for twenty years now, when I came into power we had three enemies; poverty, ignorance and disease. We have dealt with them fairly well, but there is one enemy we never thought about-Coalition Kkingdom. We have tried to be diplomatic with them but all that they seem to be doing is pokinge our noses and ears. Twenty minutes ago, I received a report that they have sunk three of our patrol battle ships on the sea of Hope. This has cost us one hundred kilograms of gold ian additional to the damage that they have already caused us in the sea. I come to plead with you that you approve the bill for the construction of the Silent Bomber proposed so that we may destroy our enemy once and for good.” With that he walked out.
The counsel was left as silent as ever, the moderator rose and cleared his throat before he was stopped by an objection. “Moderator, this kingdom has ten Stealth bombers and they cost the nation an awful amount of money to make, if we allow the making of the silent bomber, we may be jeopardizing the economy…” silent counsel, it’s time for a decision now, “with as many with a similar opinion with the king say “attack”, “attack” boomed the room amidst of a scattered nay. “Motion passed, counsel dismissed.”

In the Coalition kingdom, the King Cutter was sitting with aides on a table, “Mmy king, we have disabled them completely at sea, and the next thing is attacking them where it matters most and we shall have the monopoly of the world.” The King smiled, “what do you think they will do?” “The worst they can do is attack us with the stealth bombers.” “Are they not dangerous?” The king asked. “They are”, answered aide Lelenkus, but we have found out that they are not completely invisible to the radar, at a range of seven hundred miles, our ladder can pick them up easily and we can dismantle them before they can get any closer with our rocket launchers.” The king nodded in understanding then he rose, “in that case I will be marrying a new wife in the spring when my enemy is completely destroyed.” The amusement spread as he left the room head high.
One of the other aides looked at Lelenkus when the king left and asked, “How we areare we supposed to attack them while they can see us as well from the ladders?” “If I have to remind you, we made the bombs that are sitting in their shed outside their capital twenty years ago.” “They are not going to bomb themselves.” “Old man, you keep losing your memory, do you not remember that we had an agent down at that shed that was to help them test them. They forgot that he was supposed to be sent back home and from the information that we have, he knows the place inside out and he just need a little assistance and he could launch them as far as the capital.” Lelenkus patted him on the shoulder as he left the old man dumbfounded.
Early the next day in the national defense hanger of the alliance kingdom, ‘tThe defense chief whip was sitting on a cockpit of the Silent Bomber shell,. “I can’t get around this technology maze,” the chief whip confessed. “Let’s go and have a look at the basics,” the engineer said leading the Chief whip out into a large warehouse. They came to a table and on it was a grey net. “This net is the ionization medium; it has been made by joining millions of diodes together that function as capacitors,.” The Chief whip frowned. “The function of the diodes is to heat the air up around the net. Once the air has been heated up around it, there will be a difference in the density of the air. The heated air will have a trivial density resulting from the heating, and the airs next to it will be denser from the atmospheric cold. “Are you trying to frustrate me?’’ the Chief whip asked impatiently, “let me get to the point, this net is supposed to make the silent bomber to be invisible to the radar of the Coalition kingdom. With that, we can hammer them out of nowhere at any place. “Sounds romantic,’ the Chief whip announced triumphantly,. “TThey will be expecting us to arrive in stealth bombers but instead we will arrive miraculously from the air around them,” the Engineer said gleefully as they split.

King Ddestroyer was in his private chambers when his son came in. “Dad I Hear there will be a new kite in town soon.” “Yes, of course, we have to destroy our enemies before they destroy us completely.” “I want to ride in it when it is completed,” he said excitedly. “No Mike, you can’t, I can’t risk having you in such a dangerous mission, you are my only son and successor to the throne. “Come on dad, I flew the stealth quite nicely and I am sure I can handle this one perfectly.,” “That is true, but Il will only allow you to go for the trials and tests but not the actual firing.” “That’s good enough dad,” he said as he turned to leave, “wait a minute, “I received disturbing news that you went to the Ravine Island and met King Cutter’s daughter.” “I aAm sorry dad, I was just fishing when we chanced on her, she rather prefers to stay away from her war like dad.” “Be warned, I will not have my son to be in cahoots with the enemy.” “She is just a harmless little thing. Uunhappy with her world and I have nothing to do with her,” Mike defended himself as Destroyer waved him away.

In Ravine Island, Princess Milka was in her chambers with her maid and she was smiling to herself. “What is wrong with you?” asked her nurse. “Nothing,” she said sharply. “You can’t hide it from me; I saw the way you looked at Mike two days ago when he came here.” Milka laughed, “He is such a fine guy, the finest I have ever met in both kingdoms.” “But remember your kingdoms are enemies.” “Yes I know, but that does not change who he is. Despite he didn’t seem like a serial killer.” “Well, you better forget him, it’s impossible, besides tomorrow; your dad is coming to take you home. I hear that there are big military plans and he wants you to be at home.” “I won’t go,”’ Milka screamed.. “I can’t go and watch him spread blood all over me” “You have no otherwisechoice.” “NoYes, I havedo, when they come for me I will be hiding, and I will have someone tell them that I have gone home on a different sea route.” The nurse looked at her in horror. “It is okay,” Milka pried her, “promise me that you will play along with me, I can take care of us, and we are big girls.” The nurse nodded with her mouth wide open as Milka threw a pillow at her which she dogged and grabbed another and hurled it also.

Mike climbed onto the silent bomber buzzing with bliss; the Chief whip saluted him as he closed down the cockpit. The chief whip proceeded to the watch room that also housed the radar. The co-pilot to Mike smiled at him as they gunned the engine. Mike switched the silence mode and let the engine work itself up as they prepared to take off. The chief whip watched with amazement as the giant craft started to fade from view, yet he knew that it had not taken off from its launching position. He grabbed at the chief engineer and shook him roughly, “Wow! What did you say that effect is called?” The Chief engineer started answering but he cut him off, “whatever, this is amazing!” As the Silent bomber started to taxi on the runway, it began to fade fairly fast and the Chief whip gasped as the technical team cheered at their handiwork. They all quickly ran to the watching board as Mike veered the bomber towards the sky.
The control manager signaled Mike and they picked them easily as it steered into the sky. Mike did loops as was ordered in way of testing the bomber. Then he was ordered to cut off the communication for them to try and trace him for ten minutes. Two minutes after the switch off, the plane went missing from the ladder and the technical team could not find the plane at all. The technical team cheered as the screen went blank. Ten minutes later, he was on and they were delighted as the plane came into the screen again. Then the chief whip ordered him to switch off again and go into the Coalition kingdom and take some aerial pictures of their suspected nuclear sites and the capital from a close range.
Instead of going toward Coalition Kkingdom, he piloted the craft towards Ravine Island and his co-pilot began to protest. ‘Relax, let’s have some little fun,’ he signaled him back and the skeptical co-pilot nodded much from making the Prince happy rather than approval. Mike edged close to the ravine and started to project the ravine perimeter. It took him several minutes before he located Milka on the beach with her maid sunbathing on the sun. He smiled to himself as his co-pilot smiled from the mask. They watched for a while before a giant Coalition military plane crossed their lenses and headed for the island. Mike cursed and wanted to shoot it down but his co-pilot restrained him.
They watched as it landed on the airstrip and then watched as Milka and her maid scampered behind some big rocks on the beach. Mike could not understand why she was hiding and watched curiously. The occupants of the plane proceeded to the main house where they were met by a butler. They talked briefly and then they left for their plane which then took off immediately. Mike did not need telling what had happened.
Meanwhile they proceeded to follow the plane out as it went back to Coalition Kkingdom. When they got there, dusk was gathering and the capital seemed to be in a fury of activity. There were military personnel moving out here and there. When they viewed the marked nuclear sites they had been mandated to spy, what they saw was overwhelming. The Coalition was preparing nuclear launchers as if getting ready for war. Mike wanted to attack them immediately but his co-pilot restrained him. He persuaded him that they should hurry home and warn the nation.

When they got to their airspace, they switched on their connections and picked their main hanger. Immediately they did this, the voice of the Chief whip screamed down on them. “Emergency, Palace destroyed, all hangers destroyed all military aircraft dead! Emergency, palace destroyed….” “Mike almost had a heart attack. He gunned the craft to full throttle as he dived for the capital. He zoomed the lenses and he could see the Capital was on fire. He began to weep in the mask. He did not want to imagine what may have happened to his father and family. He did not hear the Chief whip tell him of the suspected source of the internal attack. He only woke from the daze when his co-pilot shook him roughly with his mask out. Mike looked and him and popped his own mask out still weeping. “They have killed my father!” he wailed. “It’s over, grow up. We have to attack the attacker now before he kills everyone else!” his co-pilot shouted pointing at a point he had traced outside the city.
For the first time Mike heard the Chief whip shouting orders, “attack 24. 5677, 48.586, repeat attack 24.5677, 48.586, repeat,,…..” Mike fumbled with the controls without his mask as he armed the firing engines. He bombed the coordinates like hell, and he didn’t wait to hear the “cease fire call from the Chief whip, he had already turned and was heading for Coalition Kkingdom with the rage on a wounded bull. He cut down all the connections and switched to silent mode. This time, his co-pilot did not object, he know what was going on in his mind and just nodded when Mmike looked at him as they flew through the air like a whirl wind.
The first place that they went was to the capital and Mike dropped controlled nuclear arsenals on the palace. It immediately went up in flames with the capital exploding from the nuclear attack. He then headed for their military base and set it on flames together with their nuclear reactors as he shot down any plane that left the ground. When he was satisfied from the anonymous job, he headed for the Ravine Island. However instead of attaching it, he landed and ejected himself from the cockpit leaving his co-pilot amazed. He took a gun and his full military gear and headed for the main house. He caught the door security off guard and knocked them off, before gunning into the room. Milka was seated on the couch with her maid terrified. He grabbed her and herded her out roughly as she protested but her strength was no match for him.
He pushed her into the cockpit and ordered the co-pilot out at gun point. Startled, he cowered out and Mike gunned away with the Silent destroyer. He didn’t speak a word to her as he took her through a tour of both destroyed kingdoms. She didn’t need telling on what had happened. She wept silently all through and by the time the tour was over both of them had tears rolling down on them. They were tied by a common fate and a cursed inheritance.

Mike and Milka took it upon themselves to unite the two kingdoms after they married. They swore a truce of never to allowing any fighting to ever happen again on neither the two lands nor the development of weapons. The two kingdoms knew better than to let any weapons to ever be developed ever again.
