@Dys


The dome began to crack as the continuous aggressive concentrated fire on the dome's ceiling. The beast swung his sword at the Hubrazians that got in his way as it continued to charge.


-Tarus-


@Lord Anubis


The Beast looked at Tarus and Korwin. It began to charge as it swung taking out any hubrazians or revenants that got in it's way as it skidded swinging it's silver sword at tarus


-Hydrax-


@Fezzes


Fizzik closed his eyes preparing for his impending doom. From the ruble to that back stabbing centrion. As a few moments passed, Fizzik opened up his eyes to pitch darkness. He activated his flashlight and saw that he was still alive. He looked down and saw TJ standing up. "What do you want?" Fizzik spat with hostility.


"You know. I really would appreciate a thank you. Since I gave you a shield to protect you from the impact."TJ said cracking his neck. "You never know when not to bud into other people's businesses." Fizzik said. "Don't think I am blinded by your attempts. Centrion."


"No. I think you should re consider. I could have easily let you die by that beast on more than one occasion. But I chose to block those shots. My decision alone. Not because I want to prove something. So stop judging me and my race. Because I can show you evidence that will make you question why you even decided to join the humans in the first place. My race was the victim to their never ending discrimination. And they decided to use nukes against us. Accident or not. So don't expect a lot from me either. Oh. I would stay here i I were you. Since the beats will think you're dead." TJ said before teleporting out of the rubble leaving Fizzik.


"Show off." Fizzik said.

After a few moments of tense silence, there was a noise. "Access granted." he grips released as the golden object was presented. But upon closer examination it seemed at this hand sized device was much heavier for just a single being to hold. "Please take this to the Renegate system." The voice said through the device.


 
-UGF news-


@Basscannon1


"We feel that attempts at re-establishing trade with the HLE is one step closer to communication with the young race. After nearly a thousand years." The president spoke in front of a room packed with thousands of congressmen and women.


"Discussions will take place on neutral territory. And we are confident that trade relations can be restored." The thousands of politicians then stood up and began to applaud the president as he shook hands with the speakers who were sitting above him. Before shaking hands with his fellow political leaders and the vice president.


"If the HLE shows that it has matured as a space faring race. And that they are able to hold themselves to a higher standard. We are wiling to further our talks for an alliance for the first time in a long time. And in turn return many of their citizens who have been trapped in our buffer zone, far from our outer territorial galaxies." The applauds began to echo as the politicians and military officials began to clap loud "Long live the centrion race. May the deaths of our ancestors never be in vein. And may our freedom and peace never die." The president closed with the UGF's motto as he began to walk down from the massive podium with the vice president leaving the room with an applauding room of political figures.

Several UGF navy vessels made their way towards HLE space.

"Is that really necessary? Vincent?" A young female lieutenant said approaching. Vincent turned around. "I don't know. Ms. Maveriks. Is it?"


Kiria held back a small laugh as she approached vincent. "You have four platoons of marines. Three APCs and two Anti-personnel fighting vehicles. And you are here." Vincent made a blank face. "Your point?"


"Shouldn't yo ugive them a break at least? They don't know our laws."


"Second Lieutenant Maveriks." Vincent sighed as he covered his face with the palm of his hand. "You have much to learn still."


"Hey. Might I remind you that I, am a master strategist. Who defeated the HAA in the battle of Harmony." The female said. Vincent turned around. "I agree that you are highly intelligent. But your decision making skills still need work."


"You really should listen to what your dad tells you."


"I do." The lieutenant replied. "How can I ignore my own father's advise. And who so happens to be the personal good advise giver to the elites. Who so happens to be really good friends with his only child. His daughter." Vincent smiled before facing tania's jet as it landed. "Watch and learn."

Jacob try to lift it and he barely rise it despite he is well geared with SAA gear with full power and he quickly gets exhausted only just trying to lift it further, "Ugh.. bring that item please.." two engineers carrying the drones that will carry the hand sized object, he and two engineers lift it and slowy putting it at the drone carrier. "Return that thing please.." some soldiers nodded and they put the statue grip back to where it belongs, to the statue itself and they pay respects to the temple before they leave.


Now they have to find Renegate system in order to search what is the purpose of this stuff. He and his crew goes back to the kodiak and rally up on Galleon Planet in order to gather his fleet and quickly went to Regenate system in order to investigate further.

"An old ghost you could say." The General said to the two Elites. "Wait. How." One of the elites interposed at the cryo tube. "The Sovereign Colonies never got rid of them. They simply locked them away in a very secure area of the planet. Some place the U.N.S would never look." The General said walking towards the frosted glass. "The Sovereign Colonies would never get rid of their prized possessions. That being said, they did everything to prevent anyone from ever gaining access." The General continued. "They might not have gotten rid of them. But they did get rid of all evidence and traces of how to build them. Anyone involved had their memories of their contributions erased, all files, even the smallest ones were destroyed. Any back ups were purged. And all remnants of the deleted data were purged again."


"They were inside a door disguised as a small wall. Pretty smart. But the thing is, there are only half of them here." The General said. "The other locations are probably in old Sovereign Colonies secret military research facilities. Or possibly on other planets."


"Who did you find here?" The other elite spoke up. "We found them." The general said.


"Who?"


"01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 010. The ten aces of the twenty." The general said. "And many species attempted to get their hands on these guys. Knowing that the technology to build them far exceeds even our limits. Which is also why the S.C destroyed everything. Every file, data about the,"

@Basscannon1


There were several UGF ships that were next to the border of HLE.


It consisted of a continent sized vessel. The design seemed to be brand new as there would be no codes to identify the vessel. The UGF's brand new sace navy appearing on the border after nearly a yhousand years.


-Livonians-


The battle cruiser would have picked up a massiclve dome structure which the signals were being pinpointed towards. There seemd to be a battle eruting as another faction's ships were firing at the structure on the surface.

 

[Basscannon1]

Even if they came in peace, the Livonians had made quite a lot of preparations to ensure that whoever came into Livonian space didn't feel particularly welcome.


Asteroids and loose material gathered from the systems nearby and raw materials had been cobbled together to form a massive wall around the solar system, in all three dimensions. On occasions, jet flares could be seen as the AI maintained the position of the wall around the solar system, preventing the wall from crashing into any planets contained within.


There were gates, some of enough size to cater to the UGF ship's size, but all of them seemed to be rather heavily defended. An automated message was sent to the approaching craft.


"Please be patient and wait for an appropriate screening time to be seen by appropriate taxation or trade authorities."





Then, the system repeated the message, presumably in Livoniianoi.

"Please be patient and wait for an appropriate screening time to be seen by appropriate taxation or trade authorities." The words kept repeating in english. The main language of the Centrion race. "My ass." The captain said to himself hearing the message. Below him, there were bridge crew working around the clock maintaining the ship and manning their hologram screens.


"No response from them yet captain?" The admiral stepped forward, resting his hands on the railings. "Nothing yet sir." The captain replied. "Ship status. Report." The admiral said as a hologram screen appeared in front of him. "All personnel are accounted for. Ship status, normal. All systems are functioning properly."


"Troop count." The admiral said. "All 50,000 troops's chips have been accounted for. All vehicles have been accounted for."


"And the politicians?" The admiral added. "All politicians and representatives have been accounted for." The admiral turned the hologram off.


"Now we wait." The Admiral said walking back to the conference room.

HUBRAZIAN SCOUTING GROUP OMEGA - GROUND

The Hubrazians scatter once more, most jetpacking or grapple-gunning to the cavern's walls. They do not, however, seem to care all that much about any losses they sustain. The injured are simply moved aside and the fight continues, with those least injured quickly getting back up to regain the ranks of the uninjured. They seem to be, at this point, biding their time. It likely has something to do with the ever crumbling ceiling.


Outside, the firing continues.


HELLDIVERS

The Helldivers stand by on the domed ceiling of the cavern, awaiting the moment when it finally gives. They ready their various equipment; an assortment of heavy-duty lifting equipment. Their plan is to, when the ceiling finally crumbles away, to jump down and secure the beacon and have it lifted out via Atlas dropship back to their fleet for study.

 

[MuchPsykers]

-Relic world-


The dome finally started to give in as some parts of the ceiling began to collapse, crashing down to the floor beneath. The beast quickly looked up as it stretched a hand out towards the beacon as if it were doing something to it. It quickly looked at tarus once more charging.


-Korwin-


@Fezzes


The hydraxs saw that the ceiling was giving weigh as some chunks began to collapse. "Quickly. Take cover." Korwin said as he and the other hydrax ran towards a sturdy looking section of the ceiling, taking shelter. "Is it going to hold?" The hydrax asked.


"It looks sturdy. Lets hope this thing can last." Korwin said.


-Tarus-


@Lord Anubis


The beast began to charge once more as it raised it's sword swinging it at Tarus.


 
-Tania-


@steevenajj


As Tania's ship was landing, the UGF marines readied their guns as they pointed it at the plane. "Stay back Lieutenant." Vincent said giving hand signals to some mairnes as they crept forward.

@Ramero


There seemed to be no maps of any sort to identify the location of the system that was told. The whole purpose of this device was still unknown. And seemed to look plain with no buttons or anything.


Meaning that they would have to try blind jumps. Perhaps the hand held device might correct their route.


-HLE-


@Basscannon1


"How long do we have to wait again?" The captain asked the Admiral as he walked back to the bridge. "Up to them." The Admiral said crossing his arms once more.

 

[Basscannon1]

It was, indeed, quite up to them, but after a while, a channel opened up as a bureaucrat of some kind, possibly a tax collector, peered at them over a video screen.


"Mm? What's this? Not a trading ship. Rare, that, so you're either here for war or some other purpose."





The man looked rather comfortable in his setting, although it was obvious he was a low-level functionary.


---


The battlecruiser sent out a signal to the surrounding vessels, mainly asking about the situation and about the shots being fired on the planet below. After all, they were relatively new to the scene, and hadn't quite figured out what was going on, or what there was to be done about it. The mechs surrounding the battlecruiser moved restlessly.

The Captain lowered his hat slightly. Looking at the Admiral. "What attitude. Impressive." The captain whispered quietly.


"If we were here for war, there would be thousands of ships, not just one." The Admiral said. "And we have a strict non-aggression policy. And very neutral. So, war is out of the question." the Admiral stated. "This is the UGF space navy. In the past two years, our military has gone a major advancement and we replaced all our navy vessels and equipment. Which is why you would not recognize our ship."


"Since this continent sized vessel is barely a year old." The Admiral paused. "I'm sure you've seen the news. Our governmetn has decided to attempt talks with you folks once more, to see if you've matured as a space faring race. If things go well, they are offering to ease some grips, and return some things."

-NSA 1st Fleet 1st Regiment-


With no clue to Renegate system Jacob decides to put the devices into navigation devices and let the item leading the way to it. The AI communicates with Jacob, "it has some sort of energy that we have yet to discover it.." Jacob nodded, "Alright, prepare the jump and i'll let this stuff lead us to where it is.."


Rho looks at Jacob at the bridge, "hey boss, what if this stuff holds a key to a certain technology?" Jacob lift his shoulder, "I don't know but if it was temple it's off-limits to us and we can't just salvage it.."


The NSA Fleet are entering warp and goes to where the stuff they retrieve from the temple guides them.

After more severe bombardments, the ceilings finally gave weigh as the ceiling collapsed,with a gaping hole. The parts were falling to the ground as the beast activated an energy force field shielding himself from the chunks of rock.


-Tarus-


@Lord Anubis


The Beast began to swing his sword at tarus before the ceiling began to collapse, in which, the beast activated his force field to prevent chunks of rock from hitting him.


-Hydrax-


@Fezzes


The ceiling had begun to collapse as people were rushing to get out of the way of the massive chunks of rock. Luckily, earlier korwin and the other hyrax had taken shelter in a sturdy section of the dome, shielding them from the falling debris.

@steevenajj


The Marines waited, fingers on the triggers, waiting for the door of the plane to open. "Don't shoot. Unless they come out guns blazing." Vincent said. "Just keep your cool, and be patient." The female lieutenant simply stood back as she crossed her arms, observing the elite and the marines.


-HLE-


@Basscannon1


"Or, is your government not willing to talk about setting things right like our government wants to?" The Admiral said as he received tablet from a general that had entered. "We are here on a diplomatic mission. Like I said before, If we were here for war, there would be thousands of ships, not just one."


"Our purpose, Like I stated before, is diplomatic talks with your government. If your government and people show that you are mature as a race, and are willing to cooperate, We, the UGF are willing to ease some grips and return some things to the HLE. As you know, a large amount of your people are trapped in the buffer zone. But, safely still far from our outer territorial galaxies. Things of those sorts."

ATLAS DROPSHIP

​

HLE/HUBRAZIAN SCOUT GROUP OMEGA - ORBIT

Shortly after sending out the message to various vessels, they receive a response. Originally, it came from the Supercruiser, but was re-routed through various ships till it appears to come from one of the Aether-class battleships. The response is curt, simple, and straightforward. A gruff voice comes over with the simple response of:


"Military matters."


HELLDIVERS

Upon the ceiling's collapse, the dropships and orbital ships cease firing and the Helldivers spring into action. They quickly boost up and secure a line onto one of the Atlas dropships before jumping down into the hole onto the beacon. They secure the line on the beacon as well. Once this is done as well, the Helldivers give the order and the dropship pushes its engines to full power and begins to rise.

The Hubrazians begin slowly backing out of the cavern, still opening fire on the beast. At this rate, it'll still be a few minutes before they've backed out completely.

- NSA 1st Fleet-


Jacob only raise his shoulder while on hyperspace, but he and his units are all in standby for in case they arrived at hostile territory or some galaxy system that they are not yet to explored. He only wear his combat gear clothes as his SAA was at behind him. He won't sheer off course but everything must be prepared in order to avoid any threats that comes to NSA. Whether they decide to obtain the next technology or not depends on the place they will be coming next and they won't just salvage it.


In the meantime another NSA Fleet is also preparing to catch up with NSA 1st FLeet but since the 1st Fleet has not yet to reach destination, another Fleet are on standingby in order to explore further.

[Orbit around the relic world]


The flag ship Matriarch took position close to the gate while the other vessels 4 heavy cruisers and 3 light cruisers began to charge plasma cannons, ion beams and several missile ports began to extend there shells to release swarm missiles.


[relic world surface]


The invasion spires began to launch several clouds of infection spore clouds into the atmosphere. 3 hives had already bin establish producing droves of lesser life forms to maintain the hives. The spires began to extend several large super heated plasma accelerator cannons. missile ports were readied as well. Invasion spire are well equipped to protect themselves from external forces.


Within the dome Tarus waited for the creature to attack him, when they were interrupted by explosions, and debris falling from the domes ceiling. He glared at the ceiling making sure to keep track of the beast movements, as it was distracted. He new right away something was off. In his mind the massive psionic connection he had with every Revanent both in this galaxy and his home galaxy. The flyer units outside showed Tarus the alien species within a flying vehicle. Then he saw them descending from the vehicle strapping wires to the beacon device. Then he glared at them his crimson eyes glowed brighter, and his wings began to flare a bright dark crimson red. To all the unites outside from the hives, to the flyers and grounds units within the area one command came to them with great importance ' Come Forth ' Was all that was said. Instantly every unit began to swarm towards his location. Tarus looked towards tj" It would seem we have some intrusive guest." he said in a serious tone no longer joking around. in orbit two of the light cruisers received orders from Tarus. They began to break off from the main force making way towards the relics location.They had orders anything bearing the relics signature were to be destroyed while doing minimum to no damage to the relic.

-Tarus-


@Dys


The beast looked at the hell divers angrily as it charged at them grabbing a couple and throwing them across the room. It began to fight the hubrazians as it shot a powerful purple beam at one of the dropships above the now non-existent ceiling. "How dare you!" The beast said as it fought to take back the beacon. It jumped as it reached, taking one small piece of the beacon before landing with a thud. It looked at the beacon as bared it's teeth growling before securing a chip like object in it's hands meaning it did not secure all of the important components. It then stomped a couple worriors.


-Hydrax-


@Fezzes


The hydrax looked in amazement. "My god." Korwin said amazed by how fit the beast is that it can jump so high. He saw the beast retrieve something from the beacon but saw the beast's very sharp teeth. "I think that it can use those teeth to cut metal." Korwin was assuming. "Fizzik. How are you?" Korwin radioed.


"I'm good. My bones have almost healed." Fizzik radioed. "Keep an eye on everything. I'll be there soon."


"Understood." Korwin said.


-Tania-


@steevenajj


Vincent stepped forward. "You it's rude to enter someone's territory and land on their planets. Even more so that you take far too look to come out of the damn plane!" Vincent shouted. The Marines inched forward slightly.


-HLE-


@Basscannon1


"You think the UGF is some sort of bully empire?" The Admiral said. "You're wrong. We don't hurt less advanced empires or take advantage of them. We only act if our very existence as a species is threatened."


"Now, we are here on peaceful terms. Under our president's orders." The Admiral said.

[Obi-Wan Kenobi]

-Expedition Team, Wayoun-


The interlopers may have taken most of the beacon, but the beast looked more annoyed than anything else. That wasn't a good sign. He wanted to get away from this... this thing. At the same time, he had a duty to his Sergeant, and wasn't going to abandon him. While he was debating this, the beast was going on a rampage. He lowered himself down to Fizzik. "Sergeant, we need to get out of here." The Sergeant groaned in pain. "My bones... still healing... can't move." That wasn't what Wayoun had wanted to hear. He looked over to TJ, who was extending a hand to a Revenent leader of some sort. Great, now the UGF and Revenents were working together. This mission was getting worse by the minute. He just hoped that the Invention was ok.


That triggered a thought. "The Invention. I wonder..." He looked up, estimating the size of the hole and comparing it to what he remembered the size of the Invention as. Not quite. The ship was ten or twenty metres too large, from what he thought.

 

[Lord Anubis]

[relic dome]


Tarus eyed the centrions hand before extending his own to shake it. Although he did not particularly like it. The moment he shook his hand" It would only be in our best interest." he said his mind became open to him in a instant. taruses overwhelming psionic power. He let go normally before he smiled looking to the beast. Outside the flyer units began to fire their plasma cannons at the air ships hoisting up the beacon. Several squads of 12 worriers began to swarm the walls climbing over them . The tanks unites were shot over the walls by the nearby invasion spire. Once landed the Tanks dug into the ground anchoring themselves before large organic like cannon extended from a hardened shell on their backs. They began firing Ion bolts at the air ships as well.

[Equipoise]

HUBRAZIAN SCOUTING GROUP OMEGA - GROUND

The Atlas dropships, built specifically to be able to withstand a beating such as this, do little else but shudder slightly against the fire coming against it. In response, the beacon appears to begin being winched up into the ship itself. The ships surrounding it also begin shielding it, making hitting it a much more difficult task. They also commence opening fire upon the flying units. On top of that, the airships all open various hatches and let out swarms of their own.

These swarms are of tiny, unmanned, mechanical drones of varying kinds. They make a rather large black mass surrounding the airship as it climbs, angling itself up as it prepares to rapidly ascend. The six massive rocket exhaust units behind them beginning to glow red and vibrate slightly. The larger of the drones appears to be capable of deploying various miniature shields around the airship in an effort to minimize damage. The smaller drones quickly swarm the fliers, either firing high energy lasers from ports on the bottom of them or flying extremely close to the fliers, latching onto them, and exploding.

On the ground the tank and mobile artillery units, upon discovering the location of the hostile tank units, begin pounding them with heavy amounts of heavy artillery fire.


-


Meanwhile, in orbit, four of the Gladius-class destroyers break off from the main fleet and begin rapidly descending towards the planet. Like the dropships before them these ships come down in a screaming ball of fire, giving off brief flashes as they rapidly begin to slow. Finally, once some predetermined height had been reached, the ships abruptly cut power to their main engines, diverting power to various other directional propulsion engines stationed around the ship. The result is the ship going from near terminal velocity to level and unmoving in mere seconds. Quite a feat, really.


Albeit a violent one.


The result of this maneuver was the ejection of white hot plasma near directly upon the ground. Either by accident or by intention, more likely the latter, the Destroyers came down near directly upon the domed structure itself. Particularly, it came down in the area the dropships were about to ascend to. This causes the trees and just about everything else alive directly under the ships themselves to be incinerated, those outside of them would spontaneously catch fire due to the heat, and the ones outside of them would receive extremely painful burns.


The destroyers commence firing on just about everything in the area, particularly the flying and tank units. One of the destroyer's hangar bay doors slowly begin to slide open.

 

[MuchPsykers]

-TJ-


@Lord Anubis


TJ smiled back opening his psonic abilities up for Tarus as well. "Perhaps this is the first steps towards a permanent alliance between our civilizations." TJ said as he put on his combat gloves. "Right now, that thing is mad. From my analysis, the only way were were even remotely able to touch it was through it's unprotected face. And that had consequences." TJ said looking back at the damage the beast had caused.


As he turned back, he looked at the revenants charging the hubrazians. "You sure that's a good Idea?" TJ asked looking at the hubrazian's drone retaliation. "That was definitely not a good idea."


-Tarus-


It seemed as though the minute TJ had opened up, another one's psonic presence could be detected. It was a very powerful one. One far more superior that TJ's and anyones. The psonic energy was very overwhelming and at the same time, felt as if it was dark. It felt like whoever this psonic abilities belonged to, had a soul of true pure evil. It gave Tarus a vision from the entity's perspective. Nothing could be heard but voices in a black void.

Spoiler

"No, no. This. This Alex Vincent Sashi." The voice said. "Unit 00. First one from the S.C's long series of Reaper units."


"Are they dangerous?" TJ's voice asked. "Yes." The voice replied.


"But how come they never turned against the Sovereign Colonies? Or gone rouge?"


"It's the sovereign Colonies. They were known by many civilizations for their very sneer tricks and their brute force. The reapers were their alibi. But at the same time, they were also a problem. And in order to keep these. Super-centrions from ever rebelling. Or far worse, re-instating themselves as the leaders of the S.C. The S.C, made sure that every possible outcome would result in their favour. The reapers, some were very kind, others were blood sucking cruel, and very few."


"Very few what?" TJ's voice asked.


"Very few were the devil. Living, breathing proof that evil existed. They were so evil, that they made demonic deities in other religions look like boy scouts. One, a female, was an absolute psychopath. When she was in the early stages of augmentation and synchronization, she managed to hold an entire facility hostage. And before you say anything, there were ten full battalions of S.C.S.O.F troopers and five full battalions of S.G.S.T troopers stationed in that facility. All of them were apprehended. Half were compromised. K.I.A."


"Eventually, through ungodly experiments, they managed to get them under control. They are the closest any civilization has ever gotten to instrumentality. They are living breathing evidence of harmony and Zeel."


"Instrumentality?" TJ's voice was clearly shocked. "Wait. The Sovereign Colonies actually believed in that farce?"


"It wasn't farce. It's real. When the S.C first found out about Harmony, and Instrumentality. It scared many of the government. And they found damning clues and evidence of it on some of their planets. Which were subsequently quarantined and excavated. They used it, these 100 children were their experiments and they created monsters through decades of research and experiments. And these reapers were the result."


"And that's why they must never be activated. Ever. They are to remain in cryo tubes forever. The UGF will never allow these monsters to ever command or fight. Even if our nation is close to eradication once more. You, and your elites are going to be the ones to pull us out of extinction. Not these monsters."


"And you better see to it that if they wake up. You and your elites destroy them. Permanently. Because They are a threat not only to the UGF's existence, but to other civilizations as well."

It was over. The psonic presence disappeared. It left with more questions and suspicions of it's origin than answers. Perhaps there was something that the Centrion called TJ knew about. Or worse, something that the Centrion race, a noble race who desires to protect the universe's integrity and peace is hiding something dark from the rest of the universe. Something that should have never come to existence. Perhaps further questioning would be necessary. Starting with what Instrumentality and Harmony was.


-Beast-


The component that the beast ripped from the beacon held it tightly as it crushed several more enemies. It once more fired a powerful beam of purple energy at one of the hubrazian support ships before looking back at it's enemies once more. It grabbed it's sword tightly as smoke came out of it's nose.


It twisted the hilt as another sword sprung out of the new handle. It looked at Tarus, TJ, and the hydrax. It let out a roar before it charged at the three different civilizations.


 
-Hydrax-


@Fezzes


The beast began to charge once more. The hubrazian destroyers's blasts doing little damage only slowing his momentum slightly. But not enough. He raised his dual swords at the Hydrax, Centrion, and Revenants.

"Crap, Noah what did you do this time?" Halley yelled at me as she grab my clothing and slam me against the wall of the Cal-Sat-5 station.


"I didn't do jack!" I replied trying to avoid her fist as it landed on the wall, "All I did was got into the lab and shit exploded, come on we have to get out of here before someone finds us."


Noah and Halley begin running back to the port where their ISA Model Shock Dropship is at. A large group of soldiers start firing on them, Noah whips out his M24 Rifle and takes shots at them. A bullet fly by Halley, cutting some of the tips of her hair and leaving them with a slight char to them.


"Shit, we cant get out of this mess as easily as I would've wanted to." As the tips of her hair fall to the ground after being sliced off.

The Beacon seemed to stop mid-air from being taken up. An invisible force was preventing the beacon from leaving. "Fools. YOU think I'd give up the beacon that easily?" The Beast roared. "That thing is binded to me! It is not going anywhere unless you ants can kill me!"

There was a strong signal being emitted from another galaxy in another section of the universe. It's origins were unknown but it was strong enough that other factions have probably heard it. (This is for your faction. Or whatever soldiers your characters are in command of)


A mysterious female in all black clothing and pitch black thin coat warped in behind the two before she grabbed the two and transported the two out.


The female brought them into the transport room in which there were several soldiers standing. They were UGF. The UGF had curb stomped the Human and Alien Alliance over the past 15 years and now they have free control over certain space of HAA space.


The female simply looked at the two. "Humans. Nice. You guys were being pretty rowdy here.If you're wondering, this is the DFS Mexima. And we are currently within UGF territory which I will ay is quite well defended. I know it's a little scary since you humans looked down on us centrions until just recently since we kicked your damn ass."


"So." She bent over to Noah. "Why was there such a ruckus where you two were?"

Despite they are at hyperspace, they are still alerted as Jacob still making the alert on the ship turns to yellow and Lumen 3, the highest level of Yellow alert. The devices still guiding them and a signal comes from the bridge. "We have arrived, sir" even with technologies of advanced slipspace that can travel around 80 light years per hour they still researching to reach at least around 120 light years per hour in order to speed up the trade lines, market lines and also reinforcements.


They saw Renegate Galaxy system and Jacob becomes more alerted with this but he know where the devices lead them to. Until the devices marks the planet where they will visit, he standby the floating devices on the side of it, ready to be transported once they approach a planet.


"Rise the shield" the ship was quickly shielded and he order his troops to standby as the Lune Lumen was being guided by the devices.

The device sent the ship into hyper drive once more. The device took them to a system of 8 planets. Mostly gas planets apart from one terrestrial planet a good distance away from the star. The device stopped the ship close to the planet. "Renegate system."


The planet was a sandy world from the device's scans being projected in the ship. It's continents were mostly dried up grounds and deserts with some oceans. The device then pinpointed a location on the planet. Form it's scans it seemed as though there were structures buried deep under the sand and only the top was still visible. The device was pinpointing a location deep under the sand and under the crust.

Jacob decides to park the Mothership distances away in order for in case of something happens. He moved to another NSA Recon Fleet consisting of two Astrid-Class Cruiser and ten Kodiak Frigate. He bring the devices along with him, "Masks on, we don't know until we have assured what lies down there.."


It's quite bold enough to set up the LZ very close to the structures itself in order to deliver the devices or most likely guided by the devices. Once the units has reaches the LZ, he await for the devices to begin guiding him and his troops. He have to be aware for this situation especially this planet is new to him to visit but it's worth than he doesn't go.

The device was pinpointing the exact location of the place that it is supposedly suppose to be taken to. The device eventually stopped directing as continuous beeping sounds continued rapidly as the location was deep underneath where the NSA forces were.


The structures seemed to be tall but most of the structure was buried deep underneath the sand. The structures were grey and seemed to be rusting away slowly from millionsor possibly billions of years of inactivity.
