[ WP ] aliens invade earth but what the do n't realise is that humans have been fighting each other forever and have become very good at it .

`` Sir, there is no better a time to attack Sol-3. According to our probes, the local sapient race is currently experiencing an internal conflict.'' 
 
 Admiral Lubbud smiled. `` Those are so extremely rare. How lucky we are to come at this time.'' 
 
 His assistant understood what he meant. `` How many ships will we require?'' 
 
 `` For such a primitive race, in the middle of chaos? We'll only require half the First Onaresian Fleet.'' 
 
 And so the assistant delivered the order to the communications experts, which then gathered the fleet. Then, they all stayed, facing the world they were about to occupy. They were going to strike three locations: An economically developed union, according to the messages these apes were broadcasting into space, a feudal empire in the bigger landmass, and what carbon sensors identified as the main industrial manufacturer of the race. The admiral was pleased: this race should be easy to conquer and their resources should be plentiful. They discovered radio communication, as proven by their noisy use of it, but they should have no way of seeing them. 
 
 `` Lieutenant Maryt, issue the command for the ships to land in the designated areas.'' The admiral said. 
 
 `` Understood.'' 
 
 The admiral then turned on the broadcasting system. He picked up the microphone, and spoke to the entire fleet. 
 
 `` Soldiers, that planet over there is Sol-3, a beautiful planet full of resources. There is a plague on it, however. That plague calls itself humanity. It believes itself to be the apex race of the galaxy. What is our duty?'' 
 
 **'' PROVE THEM WRONG! `` ** Echoed the soldiers. 
 
 `` Correct. Now, prepare for the most bloodless conquest in the history of our great intergalactic empire.'' 
 
 Lubbud looked out of the ship's window, pleased with himself. He saw the three ships approach their required points on the planet, the one which will soon belong to his empire. He saw them approach, and then, he saw three bright orange sparked-sized lights. 
 
 He looked at the feed. No contact. 
 
 `` Sir, they've taken our attacking force out.'' 
 
 The admiral understood this, clear as day. He promised his soldiers a bloodless victory, and now they all know that he lied. He lied about the bloodless victory, but he can still do one thing: Make the victory a reality. 
 
 `` We underestimated them. We must do a full-force attack on their miserable civilization.'' 
 
 And so the full fleet was charging at the planet. They would wipe this planet clean, and let the planet be ripe for settlement. He knew it. He knew that they could have had the firepower for three ships, but they would never have the firepower for one thousand ships, all heading towards their vital points. 
 
 They went into orbit. They saw the clouds. Then, they penetrated those, and they saw it. Human civilization. It was strangely... beautiful. That beauty wo n't stay in their empire. 
 
 `` Perfect. Land in the cities, and deploy troops.'' 
 
 `` Sir, incoming projectiles.'' 
 
 `` Must be they actually have a guided missile or two. Ignore them, they ca n't damage our hull.'' 
 
 `` Sir, these missiles are different. They are emitting gamma radiation!'' 
 
 The missiles were flying towards them. 
 
 `` Shoot them down!'' 
 
 `` Unders -- -'' 
 
 They were hit by an invisible wave of force. All lights on the ship went down. 
 
 `` Sir it was an honor serving with you.'' 
 
 The admiral did not hear this. He just committed his final sins: he sent half a fleet to its death, and failed all his men. But the worst thing was not that. His race once tried to make these atomic missiles. Later, they became unified, and all reason to create them was gone. All other civilizations were primitive and easy to conquer, but not this one. This race was addicted to war: So much so that they have such a huge arsenal of atomic missiles, enough to decimate his homeworld. They were forced to stay on this planet, not able to spread their reign of destruction elsewhere. But he made one mistake. 
 
 He brought them just what they needed to get off-planet.
