Space E-war

[The Kingpin]

the first to boared through the Airlock entered the craft through the Control room, spotting Serephir. "Freeze, human! Don't move a muscle or we'll fill you with holes!" hissed the larged dark green brute in the lead. "Turn around or you're crew are in for hell" said Serephir calmly, Jarmun standing behind him, machinegun in hand, having been taken from the emergency weapons bin on the side of the control panel. "We give the orders here, Human!" the reptilian hissed as it shot at him. suddenly, two loud clanks were heard on either side of the moderately sized control room, Serephir perfectly fine, his blade in front of him, held upside down, the blade in front of his face. the creatures' eyes widened. this human's sword slashed a bullet in half! "You fools were mistaken, attempting to board our ship" said Serephir as he swung his sword upwards, slashing the attacker's gun clean in half, the attacker himself having half his snout split down the middle. an unearthly screech came from the creature as it fell back as the attacking crew threw him forward, only to be impaled on Serephir's sword and hurtled at them with such force the whole 5 man attack crew were sent flying back...

"My Lord...there has been no sign of.." Harper was cutt off, despite Revan's figure appeared in the transmission which took up the main window..the dark Lord stared into his eyes, arms crossed. Harper felt as if something was ready to just strangle and crush his throat.

Suddenly there it was...a loud beeping in the radar was flashing...Kaine and his Fleet appeared out from hyperspace back into the blockaide as the fleet began to return towards the blockaide. Kaine was in the Reaper...he could only look out at the main window as he saw the Annihilator right there and its personal Armada around it. Revam was here...

"Typical.." Kaine thought. He what to expect..

"Kaine..." Revan shutted off communications with Harper and began to
talk to Kaine, there was alot needed to talk about..

"My Lord..I'm aware of my actions...I failed in my mission..my personal mission" Kaine responded.

There was no action from Revan but Kaine decided he should just talk on. "I seeked to unite us Elite and Imperial Forces in the end...there was not a justified decision and we left. I apolgize for the ammount of ships lost and lives taken from some bugs but it appears the bugs are smarter and deadlier then we thought.." Kaine added.

THe Dark lord of the Sith said nothing yet..only but stare into the Admiral's eyes.

Thara checked the mirror again... barely 10 steps away.... He counted in his head.... At just the right moment, he rolled out from behind the door way. Two pirates infront of him. he grabbed the first ones gun, throwing it to the side as its barrel erupted into gunfire. Thara aimed with his free hand under the panicing pirate, his targeting crosshair turning red. He pulled the trigger and the fire storms barrel lit up with flashes, blasting out a torrent of bullets into the pirates chest and lifting him off the ground. Thara then brought the machinegun up, clattering it over the back of the first pirates head, causeing him to loosen his grip on his weapon. Thara turned it around, placeing one foot on the pirates chest and sending a burst of machinegun fire into its chest before throwing the gun back... He continued on down the corridor, holding his firestorm in both hands...

[dinoman666]

Another of the reptilian pirates slammed down the door into Arqueek's room, but he was nowhere to be found, yet the door had been locked from the inside. Thew pirate waved his gun back and forth, stepping quietly into the room. Suddenly a shape dropped from the ceiling behind the pirate, completely silent. In nothing but a blur, Arqueek drew his knife and plunged it into the reptile's throat. It gave a gurgling hiss, blood frothing from his mouth, be crumpling to the floor. "You asked for it," Arqueek hissed, turning and heading out of the room, a greenish poison dripping from his knife with a sinister hiss...

[Anaclagon]

Kaine swallowed hard...he survived. Yet where was Revan heading?

Did the Dark Lord of the Sith intend on destroying what remained of the Sanghelli or intend on scouting the area once more, revisting such areas like Shadow Haven or other worlds, seeking to destroy his enemies that he had not been able to finish. Revan was now looking for something, or intended on going back to war. Thats what Kaine and Harper thought..

Due to the sheer ammount of war colonies estabalished across imperial controlled territory, Revan intended on expanding it further, make it stronger as he intended on using the blockaide as the headquarters of a new start of the new Imperial Offense.

There was no title for this new opertation, this new offensive but it was bound to be heard of soon. A massive grid of defenses was to be established, making the Imperial Blockaide much more powerful and harder to reach due to the fact Imperials intended to use this new grid system and make them as little steeping stones that enemies had to pass in order to get to the blockaide and then further through the empire.

Planets were searched and when something they did not like on it was found...it would be glassed, or at least the section of the planet. The process was being put into motion, The Dark Lord of the Sith looked from his spot, his usual spot in the Annihilator.

Military Production was going to prehaps double to make sure the new "stepping stones" would be more powerful and built up more quickly. But a simple thing was required first...destroy the enemies by your door step..

[Doc 42]

Thara walked down the corridor carefully, eventually spotting someone ahead. His voice buzzed out of his suits speaker "Hey there Arqueek... How you doing?"

[Anaclagon]

"We have Imperial Probe Droids all over this new system, searching new planets and anything of interest, everything is going as expected. As for the Defense Grid, is still in progress.." The officer said.

The Grand Admiral nodded, "Good, I shall inform Lord Revan at once.." The Admiral turned around down the hall, planning to re-enter the bridge. Progress was being done as several planets were sucessfully scouted and then military forces landed there. These planets were roughly close to the blockaide as large space stations and large group of units were being assembled. The 501st Armada had its mission to destroy enemy forces that tried to interferee with the defense grid while advancing.

The Grand Admiral continued, the blast door opening as he sighed and walked on through, Revan in his casual spot. He walked on, crossing the platform before he stopped and bowed..

"My Lord, everything is motion right now, the bases should be finished in the next few short days. As for now, none of the Probe Droids have returned with any information, still scouting this system.." The Grand Admiral stated.

"Good..be ready in orbit but be ready to deploy at any moment on my order Admiral.." Revan responded.

"Yes My Lord" The Grand bowed once more and turned around to go about his busy business.

The predqueen that had fought with Omega had calmed down now. She had been enraged the past hour that another predator had decided to challenge her and this one had been far more skilled than she had thought. However, she was in luck as though her chest had been damaged, the injuries weren't mortal.

[The Kingpin]

as Serephir walked forward, sword in hand, the 5 attackers stood up, fumbling for their guns just as Serephir lunged forward, blade decapitating all 5 of them in one blow. he looked right and left, suddenly being attacked by a Reptok, Serephir swiftly turning to block it's charge, swinging his blade forward and twisting it so that the flat side of the blade hit it, stopping it dead in it's tracks from the strength of the hand holding it. Serephir pushed the blade forward, stunning the creature before kicking it back, drawing his side arm and shooting it once in the head, the heavy caliber pistol completely obliterating the creature's skull. it seemed there was more focus on the other doors on the ship. moving in, he sheathed his sword and drew his machinegun from beneath his outer cloak, moving through the ship ready to fill whatever attacked him with holes...

[Anaclagon]

Imperial Probe Droids continued on searching far through space looking for anything worth while. An earlier discussion between Revan Piett made things a bit odd...they questioned what to do with the Sanghelli, prehaps finishing them off or admitting them to the Empire. But would they submit? or what if they destroyed them, killed all of them...what if their technology or help was needed. Then what..

Because strikes against the Empire had decreased heavily for the past weeks...Imperial fortifications have actually progressed. Turbo Lasers were stationed along the base as walls armed with turrets and cannons and troopers allowed them to fire. Shield Generators produced shields that covered and protected the base.

Space Stations in orbit began to house Star Ships from Imperial Class Star Destroyers to the simple Tartan Cruiser. The Space Stations were massive and also heavily armed and with the first line of the Imperial Defense "Grid" almost completed. They could advance...still the further away from the blockaide, the more dangerous it got.

Thats why Revan's Armada was ready to deploy to intercept with on going threats and probe droids were being to further scout what was going on in the wild unknown space..

[dinoman666]

Arqueek looked up, surprised. He quickly sheathed the knife and replied, "Other than an invasion of weird lizard guys, same old, same old."

[Doc 42]

Thara continued along the corridor, his feet thumping off the ground. He buzzed in response "Yeah... I noticed that too... strange isn't it? Oh and, nice knife..."

[The Kingpin]

Serephir was slowly moving through the craft, moving to his right as an opening turned up, only to see a Reptok charging at him. he fired a shot at its head, the beast's head exploding right after the bullet penetrated, as it dropped instantly. ahead was a door with strange symbols scraped on the door, which, unbeknownced to him, was "Slaves" in the Reptokian Language. as he slowly crept towards the door, his assault rifle aimed towards it, he heard an otherworldly moaning howling sound from within. walking forward, the door sliding up to see three Reptokian Pirates with large dual-pronged fork-like devices, a powerful electrical current running between them as they poked several creatures of various races with them, howls of pain coming from the fearful creatures who wanted so badly to escape. they suddenly fell silent as they noticed Serephir entering. the Reptokians hissed at eachother before turning around, seeing Serephir, his assault Rifle back in it's place, his sword at his side. the hissed at him as he looked at them, his eye-patch now lifted from it's place to reveal his other eye, the two sea-blue eyes almost cat-like in a way. "Come on then...bring it" said Serephir, making sure to speak Galactic Standard, so that they'd understand. as they hissed one swung it's electric staff at him, Serephir swiftly slicing it in two before roundhouse kicking the Reptokian back against a wall, just as the other two attacked, seeing this attacker was above the normal standard they were put up against. as the two swung their staffs in on him from opposite Directions, Serephir bent back, the two Staffs swinging past his upwards facing face and locking against eachother, as Serephir swung his sword up into them, slicing the electrically charged tips of them off, before swinging himself back upright, pointing his sword forward, letting the first attacker impale himself on the sword after a failed Charge attempt. the two on either side of him tried to pound him, just as he swiftly backed away, drawing his blade out and turning it so the sharp edges were pointing to the sides, hurting the two attackers as Serephir stepped back. with frightening speed he lunged forward, grabbing one of them by the neck and lifting him up, before slamming into his slightly shocked friend, swinging his blade around as the two collided, slicing the pair of them in half with one hit. he looked around at the slaves, who were reaching out to him, as if begging for his help. "Please...free us...they enslaved us...killed our families..and friends...help us" gurgled one particular creature that was speaking in broken up Galactic Standard. Serephir looked around, saying "Where's the switch for the cells?". "On that wall" gurgled the creature again. Serephir nodded, and walked over to it, flicking the switch, the cell doors sliding up into the cieling, the creatures escaping. they charged towards a wall which, after the leader who spoke to Serephir flicked a switch, slid open, the creatures rushing in and taking their weapons from the armoury. as they came out, they looked at Serephir, as if expecting him to lead them. "Kill any of this crew you find. but leave anyone else. my own crew is fighting them off of my ship right now...after this lot are dead, take this ship, and return to your homes, or continue to travel. if there's any wealth on board, you could use it to repair the ship, get some cargo, become merchants. it's up to you. just help me fight these things off, and keep close. i don't want one of my crew to mistaken you for an enemy" said Serephir, before raising his right arm to his face as if he was checking the time. a panel opened in the armour and a screen turned up. "Alex, Xander, Blaze. do you read me?" said Serephir. the blue screen changed from silvery blue to a split screen, split into three parts, Blaze on one, Xander on another, and Alex on the third. "Yes sir!" they responded, a shooting sound being heard as Xander disappeared from the screen, a screeching hiss being heard before he returned to face the screen. "Sorry about that, Sir" he said. "Don't worry about it. Listen. all these Reptilian creatures are to be eliminated. anything NOT of their kind are to be left alone. I've just freed some of their previous victims and armed them. they're gonna help us get rid of these ********". "Yes sir!" they responded in unison. "Oh, and make sure Jarad, Jarmun, Arqueek and Thara know as well. we don't want any friendly fire" he added. "Over and out" he said as he hit a small button on the side, which gave ended the transmission and switched to a Radar, detecting an incoming threat. he turned around and eyed the door, which was blown off and bent upwards as a large black Reptok walked in, a machinegun in one hand and an axe in the other, looking around angrily at all the freed slaves...

about 20 Reptoks were now aboard the Endeavour, moving through the decks in search for her crew, who were making use of the ship's numerous compartments to help eliminate the attackers...

[dinoman666]

Arqueek nodded. "Yeah, um, thanks. I usually keep it holstered." He shrugged. "I just don't support literal backstabbing, Skaven or not. Now how about we find out who's behind all this?

[Anaclagon]

"Admiral...the probe droids have found nothing so far. I think its best we stay quiet for a while and focus on the this part of the grid and then advance. Who knows what the probes may find" An officer replied, who was just reporting in on the Probe Droid progress.

"I know what you mean, its like were looking for enemies anyway. Continue on with your reports commander. As for me, since nothing is done I'll just send some other officer" Admiral responded.

"Well of those enemies at Shadow Haven? we never finished there" The officer asked.

"General Veers fought there first hand and it wasnt good, even with help from droid forces...they jammed us pretty damn well which disrupted everything. Military poistions, radar and such. The fleet couldnt bombard the enemy city correctly. Veers just made it out alive" Piett replied.

"How is Veers doing right now anyway?" The commander questioned.

"Well he hasnt had much combat...the fact that our land forces are getting constantly beaten back begins to trouble me. Is it Veers fault? no. I think we just came in too quickly and expected our forces to quickly dominate. Still Revan has been very secretive..he knows alot more then we do.." The Admiral answered as he glanced to his left to see the Dark Lord of the Sith in his usual spot.

[Doc 42]

Thara replied calmly "Sure..."

He continued to move down the corridor, spotting something reflecting off a nearby window... One of those reptillian things... It had heard them talking... He took aim with his firestorm just before the creature lunged around the corner, before it had even fired its weapon, he had pinned it to the wall with submachinegun fire. When he stopped firing, the dead beast slid down the wall leaving a trail of blood along it. Thara continued on past the corpse commenting "Serephir is going to flip a bi**h about his ship..."

[dinoman666]

"Yeah, well, he's the one who wanted to be friends with the natives of this galaxy." replied Arqueek, unholstering his rifle from his back.

Meanwhile, a single spore pod, but not an Arachnid one, was speeding towards the Endeavour and its attacker...

[Doc 42]

Thara rounded the corner, checking for enemies first... He buzzed "Think we should head to the Rec room?" He wasn't too pushed about the pirates, by the looks of it they were badly armed badly trained and just plain stupid.

[dinoman666]

"Why n..." A thud rumbled throughout the hull of the ship, and warning sirens went off, signaling a hull breach. "The hell?"

[Shadow]

After 74 pages of me doing nothing, I'm starting!

A small force of 60 Imperial Guard Troopers set out into the harsh deserts of the planet Gigan to see what they could find and report their dicoveries to the Imperium. As they trekked through the sands, something was watching, waiting for the right moment to strike. Reaver and a group of 4 other Raveners slithered through a rock arch, spying on their prey, hungry for flesh...
