You guys are merging again? I hope it works out better this time. I had no idea the previous merge was going to be such a flop. Good luck guys. Find some good dedicated RP people. Solar Alliance deserves nothing less.

The only real thing to merge is the membership and discord servers. SA and UCN will continue to still be active

New deutschlandium

It had been raining hard in the southern planes, as we continued our patrol of the Southern Parakkan Border. Reports had been received by the King that Orks had crossed over the River Gem and had been raiding small villages collimating in a Town destroyed, with only a few survivors. As such The 3rd Cavalry unit to hunt down these Orks and send them packing.

However, things had been made more complicated when a Talon dropped in to provide us with a recognisance report. It seemed that the Ork force were larger than we had anticipated. Normally they only raid in small parties but this was a war party. A war party normally consist of over 200 Orks, and this party was no exception. As such we were out numbered by 3 to 1 odds. As such The Talon had left us to head to Castle Jackson to muster reinforcements.

The plan was simple we would keep pace with the Orks whilst the Army at Castle Jackson marched to intercept them. This would allow us to attack from behind whilst they were engaging the army. The only problem was to ensure that we didnt get spotted.

I thought to myself in a nonchalantly way that it was a good thing that Talons had Airbending as an ability it made them great scouts among other things. Though i knew that not all Talons were airbenders but to my understanding most were. Hell rumour had it that the King himself was an Airbender.

Batavum secondus, Northern provinces

Batavus secondus was an ironic name it referred to the most northern provincial capital city of Kriech, a city built into the mountains. A city that was high in the skies carved from the stone it was said, while in reality, it was a combination of carving building digging and perseverance, it had one way to get there, over a bridge which surrounded a large valley. It was said the city was first built by earth benders some 3000 years ago, earth benders leaving their homelands to the East for this, it might have been true and logical considering its location. The city that was rich in knowledge of mining, trade and their legendary black stones the black stones being used around the capital and other major cites a stone so black it absorbed the light and felt oddly warm and wet. The city itself had long since spurred many other colonies around the mountains these colonies becoming all linked with their mother city through bridges, roads and towns. It was one of the last kingdoms that became part of kriech only in 2 Before unification. The city and her daughter cities formed the province of In Caelo et in terra. To be governor of such a province was thus a prized position that was fiercely fought over in the field of politics. It was a position that Legatus Davos Raengyr had secured for himself for 5 years.

He looked at the city with its black walls and the great ravine that was its greatest defence as he went on the road that led to the city. Behind him was his procession of his wife who finally had her way as he now was more than just a Legate of a Legion, behind the procession was the Legion itself which would be stationed in the city, he would thus command the legion and the 3 other legions in the Province. The Governor palace once the royal palace was clear for all to see it was in the centre of the massive circular city and it was made of marble and Blackstone and one could see from afar the green gardens. As the procession made its way into the city he looked around and this was a true city the streets were wide and the buildings tall and people cheering for their new governor for the prior governor had been killed by the mobs after he withholds the free grain allotment that was standard in the cities directly governed from Vetus Portum. He had thus gotten the job a quite simple job to eliminate all those mob leaders and show that rebellion against the central goverment was not tolerated. Davos thus had a lot to do and was sure not to have much rest for the first few months. For census records would need to be checked taxes needed to be checked and overall inspections would need to be carried out and he would need to be informed about what was playing on a more local level.

3 Months later

Davos leaned back in his stool and he had finally done the day to day administrative work of the day, singing the laws, documents military orders of his job as a governor and Legate. He now decided that it was time to sleep and looking outside it was indeed late and dark. He walked to his balcony and looked down over the city which was lighted but clearly asleep. He was intending to do the same when the explosions started across the city.

Mandora Sea Patrol

Four days out from the Parakkan Port and all we had hit thus far was storm after storm. This had to be the worst start to a voyage in ages. We were off to a small city state known as Auris, which was Mandora Continent approximately 150 West of Zeka Triwen capital city.

Rumours had it that Auris has had some rocky relations with Triwen, most recently involving the sea skirmish between a few ships. However, that was a year ago, no doubt things well have sorted out since then.

"Captain, ships to port side, and gaining" shouted a sailor, i turned to port side and walked to the railing and looked three attach ships were closing in all carrying the Triwen flag. I turned and bellowed "All hands prepare for battle" everyone on deck rushed to the side ready to repel any stray boarders. Though i knew they wouldnt be much good, we only carried a small group of soldiers for this type of voyage. My hope was that the Triwen ships would pass us by.

*Bang*

I stumbled as a rouge wave rocked us to starboard side as i got my feet another wave rocked us again when i saw them, two waterbenders bending the water, slowing us. Before i knew it lines had been throw up and i could see we were being boarded.

We put up a good fight but where no match for the Triwen Raiders. Those of us who survived where chained up and we waited for the Captain to arrive. As we waited i could hear the moans of those who were wounded and moaning of the pain, then the stabbing noise as they were being put out of their misery. "Who is in Command of this ship?" A hooded person asked. I looked up and tried to make out their identity but i couldnt make out anything in the dark. "I am..." i replied then getting cut off. "Well Captain this ship is charged with supporting the Enemies of The KCR Alliance of Triwen and as such we are here by seizing this ship and its contents with its crew being put in prison." "You cant do this, we are a merchant ship of the Parakkan Empire." i said in defiance, when the figure just laughed and replied "We dont care about the Parakkan Empire. Besides they well never know about this" He turned away as i felt someone behind me and drag me to my feet and push me towards the Triwen ships.

Siege of Auris

The siege had been going on for over a week with little progress being made.  Mostly because until tomorrow the forces i have available are just enough to do this let along attack.

What also complicated matters was Auris walls where rather strong.  In fact over the years Auris has probably repulsed more raiders than any other city i can think off.  Which had helped to make it quite an affluent city state.  Hence the attraction with it, gaining control of the city would give us control or access to a number of trading routes thus furthering our nations power.

The city itself was made up Aurisians and Triwenians which made it in part an ideal place to conquer as local resistance was mild.  However, The problem was getting in.

The City had built its port outside the main city walls which whilst it protects the city from getting raided by that direction it also cut it off from resources during sieges.  Not that it would have been much of an issue given we had a blockage in place. 

In addition as the city had expanded it had built new walls around the various "new" parts of the city.  Whilst not uncommon it still presented a problem, if as we knew they maintained the old fortifications as it meant they could cut off sections of the city once a breach had taken place.

The final issue though not a major one was that of snow, it meant any sieging army had to keep warm whilst the defending army could just wait it out in cosy conditions.

At least tomorrow the attack would finally begin.

State of the Consortium

*With the Consortium electing a new leader Mazer yaeger A master of Earth and fire bending the Consortium,The citizens of the Consortium are interested in the future of the Consortium The continuos strenthening of ties between races have resulted in many cities across the consortium,boar dens and farms are a common sight in the Consortium,the flexibility of the Consortium is a testament too how much the different races have come together,all the citizens have a mandatory 5 year education to teach them them math,writing and many other skills,paper manufacturing is managed by those who are very proficient in water bending no matter of race,The consortium prides itself in it's many different schools which teach self defense and gives it's citizens useful knowledge

*due to the constant warring more than 300 years ago the descendants of those once warring tribes have an assortment of bending techniques passed down from generation to generation now many of those techniques are taught but the best bending techniques are only taught to a few skilled anough individuals

*since it is peacetime the patrols are carried out by orcs and goblin clans accompanied only by a few benders the kobolds and the brightest in the Consortium are actively trying to improve the Consortium's technology with many concoctions and devices continually being developed in the various faction's in the consortium while the kobolds continually mine precious and important resources in the mountains that supply the consortium with all it's resource needs the currency of the Concortium is called the luxen

*The capital of the Consortium is Hidone city founded by the founding ancestor himself it many not look as grand as the other nations but it makes up for it through sheer size since many races across the consortium flock here to trade there goods and expertise,the stonework of the consortium may not be good but major strides have been made

Battle Jackson Province

I swung my sword into the Ork standing in front of me, just before he could raise his shield, the sword sliced into his shoulder cleanly throw his arm. The ork bellowed in pain and staggered backwards. I pulled my sword back into position and stabbed in in the chest. He crumpled down to the ground as i pulled my arm back. I turned looking for the next Orcs. The battle had been going on for well over three hours and whilst the main armies were engaged in fierce combat small "group" battles had broken out in various part of the plain.

The Army from Castle Jackson had been ready for the orcs as they had arrived on the plain giving them little chance to ready themselves for a battle whilst our Cavalry unite had been harrying their scouts they sent out ahead of the main force. This had meant that they were not prepared for the force waiting for them. Despite that, the orcs were still a match for the army waiting. Once the main battle had started we attempted to attack them from behind which was partially successful until they managed to rally themselves then the battle slowly started to turn.

*BANG*

An axe swung into my shield just as i was moving to attack another orc. I turned just in time to see the axe swinging towards me allowing me to raise my sword in defence. Our blades clashed in a ring of steel. The orc then pushed me backwards and i stumbled. He was physically bigger and stronger than i was, as i sat up knowing i was about to die a horn blasted. The Orc froze for a moment, i lunged forward and my sword took him in the stomach.

As i got to my feet i could see the Orcs were in full retreat not because of the Army from Castle Jackson but due to the arrival of additional Talons on the back of sky bison. Some of which were firing arrows down, others were using their Air Bending abilities.

Town crier in Gar Jenna

"From His Majesty the King and High Families.

Citisens of the Kingdom, it has been decided upon by the High Families that we will begin to reorganising the military of the kingdom into a more standardised army. Not since the days of being under the control of The Dominion of Morehan have we had a known a standardised army. Since the Dominion downfall each high family has maintained its own military force that would be called upon in times of crisis by the Crown.

However, we within the High Families recognise that the time for unifying our kingdoms assets is not just in the benefit of ourselves but also the Kingdom as a whole. This new military structure will operate outside of the control of a particular High Family and instead under the direction of the Crown. No longer will command of the armies be awarded to nobles but instead will be granted to those who have the skills needed to lead and win wars for the Kingdom.

As part of this restructure we will also be undertaking a campaign of expansion, with a view to extend our borders to the Glass Sea to the south and to the shores of Clear Water to the west. To this end we have sent a representative to the nation of Timmer (Swabia-Swissland) in order to ensure there is no misunderstandings with our neighbours."

Earth bending

*Maezer yaeger:as it is the greatest tool the Consortium has,a new kind of style has been developed the iron sand style with the Consortium's best smith's creating the strongest metal possible and melting it into small balls that can be used by the Consortium's best benders this new style is one of the most versatile styles the country has but it requires the user to carry it with them to use it but only a selected few have been given access to the iron sand,our farms are ever growing and as customary in peacetime our orc clans and goblin clans patrol the lands only accompanied by a few benders,

Democracy
*After the meeting Maezer Yaeger goes back into his Lodgings and talks with the Council,The main topic Democracy the main foundation of the Consortium although back when the Consortium was founded it had no term it was simply called the trial but 40 years ago the previous chancellor of the consortium had organized this idea of the trial into what he called demoracy,the previous Chancellor had made many reforms pertaining this,but now Maezer yaeger one of the disciples of the previous Chancellor is discussing with the council of the possible spreading of this idea by Paper pamphlets,as the consortium had made sure that paper would not be lacking in the consortium even every child had access,to paper and ink although this bore some expenses the consortium received a bounty of educated and smart citizens which made the consortium prosperous unlike in other parts of the world where paper is seen as something nobility and wealthy citizens can afford *as the meeting begins many of the council go back and forth as though many agree to spreading this idea of democracy to other lands,they each have different opinions of the means of howq to spread it some say by paper pamphlets,orators,or perhaps even inciting rebellions in other countries,and then tell the populace about democracy,but as many hours pass an agreement was reached upon by the council,this notion of democracy will first reach orcs,and monster races outside the consortium in hopes that the monster races not in the consortium will instead start organizing themselves to defend themselves better

*SECRET messengers have been dispatched to any monster race outside the consortium that has organized into a group of 100 to ensure the survival of the monster races many hordes,settlements and dens shall be visited,messengers are accompanied by orc beserkers to protect them if the humans should find out about this and target the messengers,the existence of these messengers and this plan is only known to member's of the council END SECRET

Foreign relations
*as the attacks of orc hordes and clans get more common in the The Kingdom of Parakka,diplomats from the consortium are sent to the orc hordes in the area and Parakka as well to ensure that no further conflict arises between the orc hordes and the kingdom of parakka diplomats are also sent to The Kingdom of Kriech to discuss trade deals between the merchants of kriech and the consortium,as many merchants from the consortium would like to trade more with the kriech due to the quality of there goods and there equisite craftsman,although the consortium has many talented craftsman the quality of kriech goods attract human and eleven races better than consortium goods,

Northern frontier

*Many of the northern tribes or clans north of the consortium has good relations with the consortium amny treaties have been signed and many hordes and clans in the northern frontier volunteer in the Consortium's army,a small federation of sort has been formed to the north as more and more clans organize themselves to protect themselves,better against threats,trade has been flourishing between the consortium and the monster races in the north with the consortium supplying most of the goods that the monster races in the northern frontier need from metal to food,The most notable clan north of the consortium is the Niodine Clan within this clan is 500 kijin,kijin are the most talented monster race in Earth bending so these Niodine clan comes in frequent contact with the consortium with the leader of the clan a good ally of the consortium

General events in the Imperium of Kriech
YEAR: 2501 After unifaction

The education reforms of 2501 saw the centralization of the various different educational institutions within the imperium and move the responsibility away from the church to the state. It saw an implementation of a standard curriculum for all children from the age of 8 until 20 which sees them thought in philosophy, mathematics, history and preparing those selected for their military roles. This reform will attempt to standardize education and allow a greater amount of prosperity with a better-educated population.

---

A series of military campaigns into the great eastern hinterland have secured the peace and prosperity of several client kingdoms and saw the establishment of 8 new colonies. These new colonies are already greatly defended by their walls and are expanding their road network between each other and Kriech her eastern border. These colonies are however under threat from hostile kingdoms in the hinterland and various tribes that have been attacking the various trade posts thus forcing a legion to be permanently stationed there to deal with the various hostile factions not yet fully under the control of the Empire. This has caused the permanent dispatched of one of the 30 legions that the empire has available.

---

In a time of peace cities across Kriech from the eastern cities to the western fertile lands have expanded and increased in their population, due immigration and a population boom. With preplanned urban expansion being carried out to prevent shabby towns from being established. This has seen an increase in efficiency of farming methods used to increase crop yields as much as possible to feed the mouths of the new increased population. This has also come with a great degree of economic innovation and technological innovation.

---

In the political aspect of things, a rising star within the Military has married into the Royal family. Legatus Legionis Davos Raengyr has married into it and thus increasing his political influence and wealth immensely. As he and his bride are now on their honeymoon in the dragon isles it is expected soon heirs will be born. Meaning that those children unless the oldest son of the King gets a son will be the heirs to Kriech.

The Imperium her Frontier
Keolia primus, Keolia system


Keolia Primus was a world that was on the frontier of the Imperium, it had been discovered some 73 years ago. It had the same sort of environment as Kriech in the old days it was colder and snow was frequent its poles, however, were warm and tropical. It already it had some 320 million inhabitants spread across 7 large cities on its equator. These cities all had a space elevator that was connected to the large orbital ring above it which functioned as the main defensive area, industrial area and space dock area. It was there that new settlers came and went to the planet it was there that goods where produced that could not be produced planetside it was there that the space ships that entered the system docked and unloaded or loaded their cargo and left. The planet due it being on the frontier of the Imperium near what it dubbed the great void, which was various uncharted systems hostile species and the such.

For that reason, a small Navis Imperialis squadron was based on the 7th planet of the Keiloia system. Which had 11 planets Keolia Primus being the 4th planet from its star and had 7 moons, the 7th planet from the star was, however, a colder place life not possible unless it was terraformed as it was a gas giant and served as the local base of operations for the navy and system security forces. It was dubbed Keolia militarum for her role her official name being Keolia 7th. It had 77 moons that were of various biomes and livabilities and were used for training mining and shipbuilding. On the gas giant itself, several mining operations were in the clouds where things, where mined from the hot pressure and radiation, filled surface.

It was thus that when the last messages from the system came in fratured that the regional command went into ovedrive the messages not being a good sign;

“[i]We are under attack Vaa…..

230 counted we nee….they destroyed the oribt…….

In the name of the old gods please….

Those where the last messages from the system and when regional command and eventually the larger command they knew one thing it was the Vaagari. For the last 90 years, they had begun a slow approach upon imperial space and it seemed they now had conducted a large slave raid that was not just a raid but rather a full attack that was successful upon an Imperium that was not expecting such an attack of such a scale. Many knew however that the 5th Vaagari war had started and revenge would be swift and brutal.

-----------------------------------

Western frontier territory
3 weeks after the attack of Keolia Primus


Ever since the attack on the Keolia system, the Imperium had begun a campaign of finding Vaagari ships attacking and destroying them. The plan was simple they first needed to clear their western frontiers of the Vaagari slave raiders and outposts before any major offensive upon larger known Vaagari outposts could take place. These clearing actions where being carried out by 3 squadrons and was called Operation: Veangance part I

In this sector of the western frontier somewhere on the edge of known and well mapped out space a battle was evolving around the small star system simply called WFS-08238, it was nothing noteworthy about the system with no habitable planets and it was thought that eventually the planets would be terraformed but that was still hundredths years away. Now however a Naval squadron was batteling with a Vaagari naval force and had been for the past 2 hours. Upon the Imperial squadron, her command ship stood commander Antilles as he looked upon the holographic image of the battle. He kept on watching as the display changed as a fighter squadron was launched from the Anaxes class carrier that was behind his command ship.

His naval squadron was on a standard search when they encountered Vaagari signals and thus moved to intercept. His squadron consisted of 11 Destroyers, 5 Cruisers and 1 Anaxes escort carrier. He now overlooked the ever-updating display of the battle his force was facing a Vaagari slaver fleet of some 40 ships, only 19, however, were of a proper combat design thus despite being outnumbered he had confidence in his men and his ships. He clicked upon the image of 3 dots that were heading towards the enemy fighters and moving to intercept them, their classification was the Singer drone fighter and he had confidence in them. He then got a message from the captain of their Archer artillery cruiser that he had a clear shot for the large bulky Vaagari command ship. The Antilles knowing that it would likely demoralise the enemy and cause confusion. That the command ship was a Vaagari dreadnought, thus it would be suicide for their fighters to attack and hope to survive given the go-ahead for the Archer artillery cruiser to strike. At the same time, he made sure that 3 wings of Berserker strike craft were ready to finish the dreadnought.

Near the carrier, in the rear of the fleet flanked by two frigates the Archer artillery cruiser NIS Long penance, her large massive maser cannon fired. Its beam being light blue and for a moment the beam was constant ripping through space, it then stopped and the bolt was away. The light blue maser round moved through the hundredths of thousands of kilometres of space in an instant going so fast that nobody, no sensor, no radar, nothing seen it coming. When the round hit the large 3-kilometre long dreadnought her shields flickered for a moment it seemed that its shields would holt and resist the round. Those thoughts quickly went away as the massive amounts of energy hit the shields and proved to be too powerful and ripped them apart and then hit the armour, in an instant, there was a light flash that seemed to engulf the dreadnought but then it dissipated and all that was left was a dreadnought that had a large hole in it and the engines that were slowly drifting away. The Antilles smiled as the captain of the Long penance confirmed the kill, the Wing leader of the Berserker strike craft then confirmed they would start their attack run upon the Dreadnought and her cruiser escorts. He then ordered all captains of the ship to open fire upon the Vaagari warships and ordered Volkarion fighter bombers to attack the transport engines before they could jump away.

It seemed the battle was over and the Antilles ordered the marine detachments to get ready to board the transports and see what was inside.

3 hours later

Antilles looked at the reports of the boarding parties and was both disgusted and somewhat relieved. The marines that had boarded the transport ships had little resistance and found the cargo of the ships to be Kriech citizens that where supposed to be taken off to be sold on the Vaagari slave markets. In vengeance the marines on all ships executed the Vaagari without mercy and when the Kriech citizens were evacuated and all date was retrieved those ships would be destroyed.

All by all despite it he knew that this was a victory for the Imperium both literal and tactical as strategic they had rescued citizens, been able to get more date on the Vaagari and got revenge for Keolia in some small sense. The commander was sure that would give him some sort of promotion he hoped it would at least be in the paygrade as his wife was getting more and more expensive ideas.

System of Abars

We had been deployed there in an effort to help reduce the pirate attacks that had been taking place on shipping thing that entered into the system. As of yet the PSE Lighting (Fenris Class Battlestar) had yet to detect these pirates. It had been wondered if there was perhaps some sort of informer in the system telling them information about military movements or if they were already in the system watching and waiting. Whatever the case, something had to be done!

"Colonel, prepare the ship to depart from the system, though have three Raptors left behind to monitor the situation with enough provisions for the next couple of days including some entertainment." I said without turning from the system display.

"Yes Commander, im guessing you have a theory?" he enquired whilst picking up the comm and relaying the orders.

"I wonder if there is something that has made the pirates aware of our presence and wonder what they will do once we leave. By leaving the raptors they can monitor the situation and hopefully when we return we will be able to shed some light on the situation." i replied

"What happens if they get discovered, Raptors arn't known for their defence systems?" he asked then continued as the realisation dawned on him "they can jump away"

"Correct, plus we are going to jump out of the system then tomorrow covertly make our way back in under stealth mode. That way if something goes down we are in the system to react." I replied. Though as i said it i had a feeling that something was going to go wrong.

Imperial Vagari border area
Planet of Shyr


The dark planet of Shyr was a world that was within the Vagari sphere of influence and a member of the Vagari defence pact. Upon the world lived an insectoid species known as the Shyr for which the planet was named. This species was insect-like and where called buggers for their looks, they had a small system-wide empire. Thus when the Imperium struck they managed to secure the system but the Shyr navy that while neatly destroyed quickly, its remnant proved deadly in space combat and its ground defences forced a costly ground invasion to capture the shielded larger hive cities. This forced in a brutal ground campaign which landings proved hard but eventually, a foothold was secured on its most northern continent and thus the campaign to capture all the hive cities had started. Hive cities that were immense and populated in the billions and in between the hive cities were nothing except muddy dirt swamp. Now that was a brutal battlefield between the Imperium her forces and the defenders, the landings took place on the planets northern continents and thus it was a long road to the south. A road that had so far taken them 3 months

He was blown in the air and landed down hard on the ground in the dirt as around him the bolter and blaster rounds flew towards the enemy position as the enemy was returning fire. He laid there as an officer ran past him leading a charge and yelled to him
Come on do you want to live forever Tom

Tom got up and grabbed his rifle as the bolts flew around him from one side to the other, he looked to his left and a dropship dropped of an attack vehicle next to him, that as soon as it dropped off its cargo was shot down by Shyr artillery. Tom then shook his head to get it straight and looked at the CO that was still charging forward, an artillery shell then hit and blew him up, Tom who had been following him closely his helmet was covered with blood but kept on going forward running as fast as he could to a crater for some cover in this chaotic battlefield, he jumped in the crator and the moment he landed a mortar hit where he had just stood, he hugged his rifle tighter and took a moment to breath.


As he did that around him the madness ensued and even grew larger. In the center of the beachhead the Imperium had secured 3 massive artillary pieces where activitated their weapons aimed and then fired, their firing released a massive shockwave as the shell breached the sound barrier and then went faster and faster. Its target with the shielded hive that was this whole attacks target, a hive that was heavily defended shielded and built into a literal mountain and expanded from there, it would have been hard to secure in the best of times but in these conditions with the dark muddy and rainy weather it was almost impossible. It had not stopped the Militarum that had pushed onwards from their foothold on the planet towards the hive, they had advanched some 37 kilometers and still had 40 to go. These shells went faster and faster and then when they where in the center of their flight the shells began to be boosted by rockets increasing their speed and when they hit the hive her massive walls, which where shielded against planetary bombartment, a white flash spread through the immediate area. It was followed by a sheer brutal shockwave that ripped apart the area around the impact zones and caused the walls of the hive to crack. As the walls cracked the blast spread through the outer parts of the hive ripping apart the buildings that where located there and causing damage that would take years to repair. On the battlefield as the air blast spread further and further troops on both sides who noticed the white flash where running towards cover as quickly as possible.

Tom noticed the flash as he laid there and ducked some more and soon after the massive blast wave that was so powerfull it moved the tanks fighting some meters to the back. As the wave passed Tom looked to the highest ranking officer within the crator, a lieutenant who took a breath and looked at the group that was assmembled in the crator a mix of sky troopers and normal soldiers. He then checked his wrist display and looked at them, Tom looked at the man

Put on the masks and charge push forward we are almost near their outer defensive lines

Tom took a breath and put on the mask and as he did so the HUD was activated with then the names of the troops their deisgnations, munitions he had left and maybe most importantly the objective which was outlined in red. It was still some 3 kilometers away and from what he saw it was well defended, but it was not his place to ask why his duty was to do or die or so his instructor told him. He did just that and got out and ran foward and despite the air blast having turned around the dirt and revealed many bodies of Kriech soldiers he pushed forward into the maddnes. He found a Land raider who was pushing forward and he got behind it and then moved to the wreck of what was a troop transport and as he jumped behind cover the hull of the transport was hit by Shyr fire. He got up aimed and shot quickly and managed to to shoot at 5 Shyr soldiers who then fell down. He grinned but did not have enough time to revel in his small victory as he got the order to push forward. With nothing else no way out Tom did just that and went into the fray.

-------------
3rd day of the battle for Hive Despot

Tom did not know how he had survived it but he did and it had been 3 days of fighting but he lived. Not that they had secured the Hive by any means they had however managed to breach the outer defensive lines and his regiment which was used in the breakthrough battles for the outer defensive line had been rotated out. They still had a long way to go however but it was said his regiment would now be rested and resupplied and be redeployed within 5 days for what they hoped would be the breakthrough of the 2nd defensive line. Tom at this moment did not care as he walked towards the baracks that where dug in underground he was just happy to have survived the first one and would now take a moment for sleep.

Events within the Imperium

Eastern frontier was unlike the western frontier in peace in fact the Imperium had started to settle its frontier more intensely and as it did was currently charting what would become its new frontier. This was done by sending various probes into hyperspace without any set of coordinates but rather those would be used to plot stable hyperspace routes that could be used for easy travel and thus communciatio nbetween the systems. Already large colony vessels each containing millions of fresh colonists where moving towards the frontier to settle the new systems and make them prosper. This does however bring the Imperium ever closer to the unknown species that lay to its east.

The great exodus the era as it is now called where Kriech firt expanded outwards some 3000 years ago was today celebrated upon the throne world of Kriech itself. There the lord commander of the Imperium spoke to the people assembled there before the festivities commenced. This message was spread through the Imperium and told about the determantion of revenge the imperium had and would fight back the Vagari untill their rogue state was crushed into dust.

Hyperspace relay point system expanded Through actions and order by the central command the relay network used for safe and quick jumps by Kriech ships will be expanded to reach into the frontier to allow the resources and godos from the frontier to enter the core and the aid, technolgoy and infrastructure from the core to expand easier.

Parakka wrote:System of Abars

We had been deployed there in an effort to help reduce the pirate attacks that had been taking place on shipping thing that entered into the system. As of yet the PSE Lighting (Fenris Class Battlestar) had yet to detect these pirates. It had been wondered if there was perhaps some sort of informer in the system telling them information about military movements or if they were already in the system watching and waiting. Whatever the case, something had to be done!

"Colonel, prepare the ship to depart from the system, though have three Raptors left behind to monitor the situation with enough provisions for the next couple of days including some entertainment." I said without turning from the system display.

"Yes Commander, im guessing you have a theory?" he enquired whilst picking up the comm and relaying the orders.

"I wonder if there is something that has made the pirates aware of our presence and wonder what they will do once we leave. By leaving the raptors they can monitor the situation and hopefully when we return we will be able to shed some light on the situation." i replied

"What happens if they get discovered, Raptors arn't known for their defence systems?" he asked then continued as the realisation dawned on him "they can jump away"

"Correct, plus we are going to jump out of the system then tomorrow covertly make our way back in under stealth mode. That way if something goes down we are in the system to react." I replied. Though as i said it i had a feeling that something was going to go wrong.

Day 2 - Raptor 3 - System of Abars

"Still no news from these pirates, Raptor 1 and 2 are also reporting its all quite" Said jack, who sat at the back of the Raptor, I had to agree that things were getting boring and in fact it looked like the Pirates had moved on. "Perhaps we should send the signal to PSE Lighting?" i asked the Lieutenant next to me. He was a Twi'lek who had spent more time in a Raptor than almost anyone else onboard the Lighting, yet due to some sort of brawl got demoted down and left at Lieutenant. "Not yet, if we..." he started to say when Jack shouted "CONTACT".

On the scanner it was a large ship of an unknown configuration (https://i.pinimg.com/564x/74/44/a0/7444a0cb03b7a2695ce354c911915465.jpg) it was moving towards the planet slowly. "Its powering up weapons to target the planet" Jack said with a tone of concern in his voice. The Lieutenant replied "Signal sent, bring us into attack position with Raptors 1 and 2. Planetary defences have already dispatched several Patrolstars that might help delay things until the Lighting arrives to provide aid"

I moved our ship into position and begun to prepare us for battle readiness when over the com a voice sounded "Raptors take up support positions of the Viper squadrons." At that moment gunfire hit the side of the hostile ship on its flanks from what had to be the Lighting. Yet the shots seemed to do little damage, though it did get the Hostile ships attention. I sat transfixed as it turned towards the Lightning and began to fire its own weapons. In the background Jake was say "Lighting defences down to 57%... Hostile Defences seem to have suffered minor damage... Viper squadron one on an attack run... No damage..." we fired our weapons he was commenting "no effect..." he continued.

At this point the Planetary defences had also added their firepower to the mix, i watched thinking it was like flies flying around a hoarse, annoying but nothing more. It was at this point that 4 Thor Class Warstars jumped into system behind the hostile vessel and opened up on its flanks. "Hostile defences beginning to break, its turning to leave." Jack said from the back as the Lightning closed on the hostile ship flying over our head. The hostile ship started to power up its engines whilst under fire from the 4 ships it was about to enter into hyperspace when it promptly brought back out. it was then that i noticed a Scoutstar was on the edge of the battle staying well outside the firing range of the Hostile ship.

"Hostile defence systems down!" Jack said with excitement in his voice. After that the hostile ship didnt last long before it was destroyed or as good as. I knew what would happen know. A Repair ship would arrive to see what could be salvaged and of that, it would be examined to see what new technology we might gain A bit like the cloaking technology on our Stealthstars.

Interstellar Space
Hyper Space Lane South of Aikka

We had been sent along the Hyperspace lane from Aikka to investigate an attack on a KCR Alliance transport ship. Upon arriving nothing seemed out of place in the system, we Knew that this hyperspace lane connected to the lanes to the Parakkan Star Empire and Kriech. It had been speculated by Command and indeed the Senate if one of those two factions were responsible.

The system that the attack occurred seemed to unremarkable other than a small station, known as Three Star Station, its location was more of an interstellar trading hub and ships if required would come here to offload their cargo or make a pit stop before continuing. It had been rumoured that the station had been under the control of the Black Spire Cartel.

"Open a Channel" i said

"Channel open sir" came the reply from the comms officer

"This is the KCR Defiant, we are enquiring about a transport ship that was attacked her a couple of days ago and wondered if you knew anything about it?" i said, then waited for the reply.

A raspy voice replied "Greetings Captain, at least i presume you are a captain? We know there was a slight disagreement between the freighter in question and some business people regarding transportation fees, that to my understanding the freighter captain refused to pay." I seethed with irritation at but kept my voice neutral and replied "Under who's authority was this transportation fee issued by?" The voice replied "Well Captain that would be mine as commander of this station. The Freighter captain docked but didn't pay the fee thus i had to order for him to be detained. Unfortunately he escaped into Hyperspace before i could get my payment." I was about to say something when the voice continued "Which is why im glad you are here as you can pay for your freighter captains bills."

"Captain 5 ships have detached themselves from the station and are making their way to us" said a voice on the bridge. I said to the voice "I wouldn't try and collect if i were you. Currently your station exists outside of the derestriction of us, and that can change if you push matters."

As i waited for the reply my first officer said "activate defence systems and send the signal."

Instantly 30 ships jumped out of hyperspace behind us. I heard the voice inhale sharply and say "You make a point Captain please accept my apologies for the misunderstanding." I smiled and replied "My that is very generous of you but i think you have highlighted a concern around this system. As such Ill be leaving Commander Kehim Nirra and a small squadron of Keldon and Bird of Pray class vessels in the area. Im sure you both well form a fantastic business relationship. Defiant out"

Tarox Prime

"All hands Condition one throughout the Fleet. Launch Vipers when ready" said the voice on the ship com. I started running to the shuttle where waited the other members of my Platoon or at least half the Platoon. Our orders were simple the Fleet of 15 Atlanta Class Battlestars and various other support ships would take down the defences then the 3rd Regiment would be deployed planet side...

4 days earlier Holonet news

It has been revealed that the attack on the system of Abars was carried out by the Tarox Hegemony who it is thought has managed to acquire new technology from Vulcan Republic (New electron). It is thought that they managed to acquire new defence shields that enables them to withstand more damage than normal shields. However it is not thought that the Vulcan Republic knew what the intended purpose of the sale was.

The Parakkan Senate has vowed to answer this blatant violation by the Hegemony with force, with one Senator saying "It seems we need to put these upstarts in their place and so we will."

.... "Hurry up or we will be late to the party." said one of the guys from the platoon as i boarded the shuttle. I took my seat and the Lieutenant said "right ladies and gents, we have been ordered to seize their station orbiting the planet. Seems Fleet has decided to send our Cylon toys down to the planet to seize the capital and force their surrender. All we have to do is take the station."

As i sat i felt the shuttle jolt as we took off. We sat in silence gathering our thoughts as was common before a battle, when the shuttle alarms went off and a voice that i assumed was the pilot said "Dont panic, just scrapped the shuttle on some debris. Seems like the space battle is nearly over as Repairstars are beginning to clean up" the tension inside the shuttle seemed to have eased somewhat. The Lieutenant walked back in and said "Good news, it seems Tarox have surrendered, so we are turning this bucket around and going home. Though the fleet will be staying in the system for the next day or so whilst terms have are agreed but its thought it should be a relatively simple matter.

--------------

"So the Tarox have surrendered, disappointing. I guess we will have to move onto plan B." said my insider in the Fleet. I sat with my hands with finger tips pressing together in a dark room thinking. "Yes move onto plan B, though this time ensure it goes better than this plan, we have wasted a lot of resource on this plan for it to bear no reward" i replied back the voice on the other end sounded shaky when it replied "Yes my lord".

As the com closed i got up and slowly walked around and rested my hand on my lightsaber, the feeling of it was reassuring. I picked it up and placed it on my belt beneath my long coat and left the room, walking throw the hallway and out the front door. All the while thinking it was time to check on my other plans.

Kriech
Imperial Palace

John stood at attention like the other 50 officers that where the room, while the civilians, the merchants the bureaucrats all gave the imperial salute as the doors of the chamber opened. The room was silent for a moment as the honour guard first stepped in, their white armour with golden trims shinning and reflecting the lights from up above. they were followed by the Lord commander of the Imperium Sev'rance Tann a woman who had risen through the ranks at a young age and was now leading the Imperium. As she entered the room the loud cheers of Ave Imperator were loudly heard. As the Lord commander passed the officers began walking towards the podium. there they stood once again looking out over the crowd, the crowd in itself watched the Lord commander sit and the Honour guard vaded in the background but ever-present.

The lord commander sat down and the lights in the room darkened and a large hologram appeared in front of the Lord commander who stood up and began to speak. John looked at her with rather a bit of indifference. He admired her and respected her but unlike some others, he did not seek her favour for he was a Mitth and this excellence and skill were the reasons for promotion. He was here however to receive one of the highest awards in the Imperium, the order of Kriech for his actions during the Xaria Campaign were under his command they eradicated the last Shyr fleet leaving no survivors.

He watched on as the Lord commander gave the speech telling the crowd about the honour and skill of duty and conduct the military officers had shown in their duty to Kriech. She gave all the awards to the officers and after that, the national anthem was played and when it all was over everyone moved to the large gala held in their honour. There John stood at the edge of the gala having just talked with some diplomat and already had been rather bored. He clicked his wrist display and saw he had some messages including several from his wife. He checked them and it all came down to her being rather bored, he smiled at it and put it away and then looked at the gala. The lord commander had not yet arrived but then he heard a sound and then a explosion and then chaos and then the holographic symbol of the Xiar federation….

In a brief moment what was supposed to be a happy occasion was turned into a bloodbath and then in one quick moment it was decided by order of the Lord commander herself. War was declared upon the federation which laid on the eastern borders of the imperium and controlled a stable hyperlane and thus it would be taken and the highest level of revenge was to be granted.

Frontier world of Carlac

The world of Carlac was a frontier world that was settled some 43 years ago by a Clan that had charted it. The planet was a lush jungle but held a great amount of Promtehteus stores that, that resource was a rather important one and that had provided the economic stimulus needed to sustain it. By now the world had some 3 Million inhabitants all centred near the equator around the various space elevators that connected them with the orbital space docks that were scattered around. It was, however, a strategic world and thus had been a target for the Krogan and it was 2 months ago that they attacked with an entire fleet decimating the defence forces. Fighting on the planet was quick and the Krogans won the main battle around the main settlement and captured the spaceports. The enclaves, however, would not let this go easily and send a Raider class corvette in to keep watch over what the Krogan occupation force did and drop commando’s to gather information on the Krogan occupation and lay the groundworks for eventual liberation.

-----------
EEFS Drakki

It had been in the system for some 3 weeks and had so far been hiding in the asteroid belt and launching probes. To the crew her horror however it seemed that the Krogans were amassing a force that was immense and wanted to use the system as a staging ground for the invasion of the Enclaves. They ha been placing hyperspace jammers in key potions meaning that any force would be forced to exit hyperspace at the edge of the system thus giving the Krogen enough time to respond and destroy any counter-invasion force. The Drakki was thus on its own until it had completed its mission.

Aboard the ship, Ben Ordo stood looking at the latest data that had come in from the probes that had been dropped over the planet, probes that tapped into the colony her security network and thus provided a good picture of what was going on. It was not to his surprise that he found out that the Krogans were settling the city with their own, considering the Krogan birth rate. He then got another message in from one of the probes that was monitoring a gravity generator that forced ships out of hyperspace and prevented hyperspace much further than the outer planets. He clicked on it, immediately a 3D hologram appeared of a fleet of 17 vessels. It seemed that 15 of those where Krogen colony ships while the remaining 2 ships where small light patrol vessels. Ben then got an idea and he ordered his Senior staff to start to get the ship ready for a raid. To hurt the Krogans they would destroy those transports and make it known that this system was not given up on and that the Krogans could not just settle without any danger to themself.

He thus made sure that the crew was ready to strike, that all the weapons where active, al the targeting systems where working, that all the Marines were ready to board the command vessel and leave behind nothing but death and destruction.

-------------
3 Hours later

As the Krogan colony flotilla was moving past the outer planet of the 11 planets within the Carlac system. It passed an ice planet that had a large asteroid belt and the colonists on the fleet were looking forward to their new lives. These colonists where still Krogan but more of the peaceful groupings and the 15 colony vessels were all together carrying some 700.000 settlers. Their escort was small due it being reasoned that the Encalve forces had been driven from the system and Krogan military assets where marshalling across the Krogan federation in preparation for the war against Enclave. These settlers and their defence ships did thus not expect missiles to not just crippled all of the unshielded colony vessels, while giant charric bolts hit the Krogan defence ships.

Ben looked at the 3D view of the battle as it was going, the Drakk had been able to sneak up suppress Krogan sensors and then target all the engines of the settler vessels thus crippling them in death space. He was in luck that the Krogan defence ships were outdated and thus as he lured them away from the colony fleet the Drakk was able to destroy the older defence ships. At that point as the defence ships were nothing but burning wrecks floating through the cold vacuum of space. The Drakk then began to focus it’s upon the helpless colony ships, all except one the lead ship that had a length of some 5 kilometres. Ben looked at the scans and then send out the two boarding vessels into the hangars of the ships. In total, those two landing ships held some 35 marines that had a single goal devastate the settlers. He sat down in his command chair and looked on from the live feed.

The landing ships entered the hangar and started opening fire at the Krogan security personnel that had surrounded the hangar, destroying large parts of the interior wall and causing structural damage. Under the cover of the landing ships their fire the marines excited and began moving towards the habitation section of the ship. Ben watched from one live feed as the Marine near constantly was shooting down incoming Krogan security personnel without little trouble and doing little to limit the damage. He watched in awe at the lethality of what they did shooting everything in sight. After 3 minutes they had entered the habitation area and there it was a large slaughter with nothing holding them back, the area’s where vented as the large glass sealing was simply ripped apart. It took 30 minutes and in that period all of the settlers where death, while in the centre of the habitation module a large hologram showing the Enclave fist was left behind.

Ben knew and maybe somewhat hoped that it would come to war for he wanted revenge upon the Krogans like so many other Inwitts did.

Session of the Senate

"I wish to raise the concern around the rumours of the Klingon Cardassian Romulan Alliance (Triwen) massing a fleet at Three Star Station, which as we know is located at the intersection between ourselves the KCRA and Inwitt. This station was once an independent trading station falling under neither of the foremost mentioned powers control. However, now it is under the firm control of the KCRA. This cannot be allowed to continue as it could disrupt the flow of trade and transport along that lane." Said Governor Galanas, who proceeded to sit down after his speech.

Governor Xenouli stood up, a tall woman in her mid 40s. "I wish to remind the senator that said station was known to be used as a pirate outpost from time to time. Even i recall when i first took my seat on in this chamber some 5 years ago this matter was discussed and whether we needed to send a fleet to address the lawless of that station yet it was decided that we shouldn't. As far as im concerned if the KCRA wish to occupy the station then good luck to them" she then sat down.

Next to stand up was Governor Flax, a tall Twi'lek who was known for his military career before leaving and taking up politics. "My concern here isnt with the occupation of the station but the fleet thats being massed there. Reports from the holonet seem to suggest the fleet consists of 152 ships of various classifications. Should they choose to move against us they could attack Aren in a matter of hours. I would like to recommend that the Senate orders the mobilisation of the 3rd Defence Fleet, with the 8th Auxiliary Fleet placed at condition two"

This was met with some cheers and boos from the various other governors. Finally the agreed upon Chair of the Senate for this session stood and said "We have heard some of the views around this topic, i agree that developments are troubling but we have to trust in the Diplomatic Core to hopefully ensure a peaceful resolution to our concerns. During this discussion i sent a communique to Central Military Command who have said that they are monitoring the situation and well take all necessary steps to protect the Star Empire. However, i am in agreement with Governor Flax concerns and feel that the Senate should vote on the the recommendations suggested."

With that he sat down and continued "Please vote green for support and red for rejections" i stood and watched the screen above the chairman's head as a Green and Red square appeared and the numbers started to appear in the centre. After a couple of minutes the votes where cast with majority in favour of the proposal though there was one who voted to abstain.

Governor Egelwin a beautiful Elf stood and said "I respect the decision of this chamber but i am concerned that this course of action could be seen in a negative light. I do not feel that the Diplomatic Core has been given a chance to find out the situation and this action will only make things worse for them." with that she stood and the Chairman stood up again and thanked everyone for their contributions and votes and said who would be the next governor to chair the next Senate session.

With that i turned and left the viewing platform, as i walked along the corridor i couldnt help but think someone was following me. I turned and a man rushed at me igniting a lightsaber and lunged for me. I threw up my hand and sent a bolt of force energy directly at him. which sent him backwards. I ignited my own lightsaber and held it up in the ready position; waiting for him to advance. He stood there looking at me and grinned, i was about to ask him what was funny as he launched a vicious attack. I was skilled but i suspected that this guy was better than myself. I managed to back away from him and put my hand in my pocket and hit the emergency beacon which i hopped he had not noticed. I was just about to pull my hand out when he shot force lightning at me, it connected and the pain i experienced was unbelievable. As quickly as the pain started it stopped and a tall figure was standing over me and asked "Are you ok?" i nodded and he then turned his attention onto the attacker and said "Why dont you try your tricks with me" He stepped forward and ignited his own Lightsabers, two brilliant silver coloured ones.

The attacker said "Greeting Titus, i would love to play but i have to go now." he said and threw a smoke bomb or something on the floor and by the time it had cleared he had left the scene. At which point guards where coming up the corridor. Titus held out his arm to help me up and said "Now this is going to be an interesting report to write up"

Captains Log KCRA Falcon (Brinok-class)

We have been making our way towards the Aren system inside the Parakkan Star Empire to return a captive that had been held on Three Star System under the old regime when we received a distress signal from a small ship was received. We diverted our course to intercept the signal and offer aid. Upon arriving the ship was caught in some sort of special anomaly, however as using our tractor beam we were able to pull the ship away from the anomaly.

The captain was of a species known as the Verpine, an insectoid race that was known for trading amongst other things though he refused to elaborate on what else they are known for. I attempted to discover the location of their homeworld in order to allow us to establish relations with his species, but he said that the information wasnt to be shared with outsiders for fear of persecution.

I have filed a report with Command regarding this species and have suggested that we look into seeking out their homeworld to find out what other information they might know and perhaps bring them into the alliance as a servitor species. They certainly would have their uses to the alliance.

On another note when we finally got to the Aren system we noticed the increase of Parakkan military vessels, scans seemed to suggest that there was at least 30 ships of various classifications within the system. Whilst the Parakkan Military were pleased with us returning the prisoner of Three Star System they were not keen on us staying in the system for long. My command crew and i agree that this Parakkan military mobilisation at Aren is probably due to the deployment of Klingon 3rd fleet at Three Star System.

Whilst i do not think the Parakkan Fleet would be enough to stop our own fleet it would be an interesting battle to witness and indeed would be such a close contest to call.

Summer Lucas appointed to represent the Star Empire in the Solar Alliance

At age 27 Summer is perhaps the youngest person ever to be picked to represent The Star Empire in galactic affairs. Summer said "This is a tremendous appointment and i am looking forward to traveling to Minbar to undertake my work." When we asked her how she would cope with the variety of different races she responded "Naturally there is going to be a bit of a... learning curve to this but im up for the challenge of working with different cultures to ensure galactic peace."

However, her appointment has been met with some concern by members of both the Senate and House of Representatives. Who have both said she is far to young and inexperienced for such an appointment.

Three Battlestars being sent to Three Star Station

In a suppressing move Three Battlestars of unknown classes are being sent to Three Star Station that is currently occupied by The KCR Alliance of Triwen. We are unsure what the purpose behind this deployment is but we will keep you posted.

Tarox Enters into Military Alliance

Tarox that recently was the subject of some military action today has agreed to enter into a Military Alliance with the Empire. The Tarox ambassador said "This will see an end to the current issues between our two nations and will be the start of long term peace and prosperity for both parties." Whilst a spokesman for the Senate said "This Alliance will repair the wonders of recent events." However, public opinion on the alliance is low mostly due to the piracy they carried out. Some members of Rim Worlds saying they should have been brought fully into the fold of the Star Empire, rather than as a puppet.

Western Frontier region
Known space (being well known by the others)

Jaster looked from the bridge of the EEFS Spirit of Vengeance, a dominion class cruiser, he looked into the blue hue and another dimension that was Hyperspace. He stood there on the bridge in his dark grey-blue naval uniform. He stood on top of the bridge and an ensign walked to him and stood at attention.

Sir we will exit hyperspace in 10 minutes

Jaster turned around and walked to his command chair and as he walked he gave the simple order that was o so meaningful.

Battle stations prepare for combat set battle modus

At that moment the entire ship went active, lights turned red from their normal colour, crew members began running to their battle-stations, weapon systems were activated by the computer, the large heavy maser cannons were turned on, point defence systems activated, missile pods readied for immediate fire. Thus when Jaster sat down in his command chair, the holographic displays activated showing the readiness of the vessel, the countdown from hyperspace was made clear. Ten seconds to go, he took a breath and closed his eyes as the ship exited hyperspace.

The moment they had exited at the edge of the system the new readings from the system came in. One of the ensigns had collected them and double-checked them just to make sure, while at the same time the targeting computer had put in the target coordinates and the missiles were ready to strike. An ensign then spoke up on the bridge.

Sir we have 3 unknown ships, assumed to be warships, 1 large space station that is right in the pathway but no sign of the Verpine ship

Jaster set back and looked at it again, all these ships were unknown classes and heading towards a central station. “Open up a channel on all frequencies”. The ensign nodded and confirmed that it was now active.

“This is the captain Jaster Baverinn of the EEFS Spirit of Vengeance a ship of the Inwitt enclaves. We are looking here for a Verpine ship[/i]”

Now Jaster knew it was simply a waiting game.

n aThree Star Station

The Parakkan ships arrived at 3pm local time, it was interesting to watch the Klingons start rushing around as if there was a out to be an attack. Instead the Parakkans asked if they could send a couple of people aboard the station. Among the parakkan guests was a young Twi Lek, until then I had always thought that Star Empire consisted of humans. They didn't spend long on the station. Though during their visit they did spend a bit of time with the Klingon Governor.

As I waited eagerly for what I expected would be a confrontation between two big powers within this sector of space. In the back of my mind I was thinking all of this old lead to the return of my station. Unfortunately that confrontationdidn't happen. Once the Parakkan delegates left the station and returned to there ships. The ships just went into warp or hyperspace depending on your terminology.

I walked slowly down to the promenade passing a young girl on the walk way, I handed her a slip of paper covertly. She took it then ran off. I smiled to myself and walked on thinking that it wouldn't be long till the station would be mine again.

When I got to the promenade I was met by a group of three Klingons holding blasters. The one in the lead said "come with me now!" I followed him and the other two fell in along side me slightly behind. My smile vanishing as we walked. I wondered if I was walking to my execution or not.
