"Flood 006," continued Rtas, "Is an artificially-created Flood form, made by Zahr'kagar. Specifically how he did it is unknown, though we suspect is had something to do with the Lekgolo, or at least their homeworld." Bias snapped, "That is absolutely unacceptable! Does he not know what could happen if he tampers with the LF.Xx.3273 Flood Super Cell?!"

[Buwx]

Rehr looked up at Bias, "That's exactly it... he did. Yet he succeded in altering the super-cell in order to create the 'ultimate form of flood'... which he had intentions of using as a super weapon. According to the Covenant records... the F-006 super-cell was capable of, regeneration, asexual-reproduction, and enter a host's body through non-oral openings. Creating a creature that was capable of infecting even the Leckgolo..."

[dinoman666]

Bias bobbed in irritation. "This... this... this must be stopped at once!" "It was," assured Rtas. "My Special Operations teams destroyed F-006 awhile ago. But if Zahr'kagar gets more of the Flood Super Cell, it may happen again." Bias replied quickly, "Then we must stop this... Zahr'kagar before he destroys this galaxy! We MUST activate the Rings!" "No!" barked Rtas. "We stopped him once, we can do it again."

[Buwx]

Rehr nodded, "Yes, Zahr'kagar was infact stopped by SpecOps Commander Erhi 'Espatee- may he rest in peace- and the infested moon glassed over several times. This is something we can definatly handle." The other Sangheili in the room just stared, puzzled, and shocked... it could easily be seen that they were devastated about their next task.

[dinoman666]

Bias froze in mid-air, seemingly stunned. Then, after a moment, he began moving fluidly again. "Very well. My Sentinels will assist however they can. I will personally make sure this "Flood-006" experiment does not come to fruition! My Makers would be appalled..."

[Buwx]

Rehr nodded, "Very well," he then faced the others, "I'm sure you all have an understanding of what our task is... and I suggest that you prepare for the worst."

[dinoman666]

Rtas nodded as well. "Alright, as soon as my squad gets back, we're going to hunt down Zahr'kagar, and may the Gods show mercy on any who get in our way!" The Elites in the room all howled war cries, shaking their fists in the air...

"Your plan had better work, Zhar..." growled the towering War Chieftain next to the Kig-Yar on the bridge of Minor Transgression. Zhar hissed reassuringly, "Don't worry, Chieftain. I have the utmost confidence in our new... ally." He watched out the viewport at the Rapid Conversion, and couldn't help but feel impatient himself. What was taking Zahr'kagar so long? He didn't want the new Chieftain of the Jiralhanae to get any more angry than he already was.

[Buwx]

As Zhar finished his sentence, the windows of the Minor Transgression were luminated by the bright light, of seventy star-ships exiting slipspace, and a COM channel was opened, "We are here!" barked Zahr'kagar.

[TyrannoTitan]

The massive creature now moved in between the planet and the ships, passing by gracefully for his size, his eyes transfixed on the planet below, debating which planet to feed off of, ignoring the fleet behind him for the moment, more focused on the opportunity to feed...

[dinoman666]

The fleet of ships over Trandosha immediately opened fire on the massive creature trying to push past them. The Invisible Claw in particular raked its thick hide with the mini Superlaser, tracing scorch marks into the behemoth. The Sentinels also assisted, forming into large octahedral formations and pounding O-RLY with deadly golden beams of energy.

Rtas received an alert of an attacking creature from his COM, and said, "Looks like we have more company. I'm heading for the bridge. Rehr, get the troops informed about Zahr'kagar." He turned and sprinted out of the briefing room and for the bridge, which was, like many Sangheili ships, nestled safely in the interior of the ship.

The Chieftain, who's name was Majorus, arched a brow at the size of the GPF fleet. "Those pirates have a lot of firepower..." "Don't worry," replied Zhar. "They shouldn't be a threat to us anyway." Over the COM on the ship, he said to Zahr'kagar, "Go ahead and head for the Battlecruiser. All you need is in there."

[Buwx]

Zahr'kagar laughed, "So you think... remember our deal," his voice began to seem more devious, "Although this may be enough for now... you still need to bring me my 100,000 infection forms. Combat and carriers are useless!" The GPF fleet began to head closer towards the battlecruiser, more specifically the Unbouted Repentance.

[dinoman666]

Zhar chuckled. "There are plenty of them in there, specifically the Dispersal Pods. You just need to get past the Combat Forms and Carriers first!"

[Buwx]

Boarding craft could be seen being launched into the battlecruiser, and Zahr'kagar laughed, "I'm sure you'll find that we're more than capable of dealing with them," and with that, he disconnected the connection.

[TyrannoTitan]

The creature roared in pain at the attacks, its maw opening as a torrent of white hot energy swept out, vaporizing the nearest target. The creature's massive arms spread out, swinging at the closest ship, its movements slow but devastating...

[dinoman666]

The cruiser tried to move out of the way of the arm, but as clipped by the attack and sent careening uncontrollably into a second one, both being consumed by a large fireball. The Shadow of Intent fired its Energy Projectors, slicing O-RLY's skin with the deadly particle beams. The rest of the fleet never let up on their attacks either, making evasive maneuvers when necessary, but trying to keep the massive... thing away from the planet at all costs.

Zhar watched the boarding as they flew towards the Rapid Conversion. "Oh, you had better be prepared," he growled. He didn't want to see Majorus if this whole incident got turned on its head.

[TyrannoTitan]

Another torrent of white energy slammed into another ship, the creature angry and confused at the attacks. Turning its head, the beast lunged, latching its massive jaws onto a smaller ship, a fireball appearing around his maw, the only remains of the ship. The creature continued to move forward, trying to circle around and head toward the planet...

[dinoman666]

Rtas barked into his COM, "Send in the rest of the fleet!" The "fleet" was actually only nine Battlecruisers which had escaped the assault on Sangheilios, but it was a useful pincer attack. The nine ships emerged from Slipspace directly in front of the massive beast, Plasma Torpedoes already charged. They let loose with all their weapons, straight at O-RLY's face...

[TyrannoTitan]

The creature roared in pain, its eyes showing piercing rage, firing yet another stream of white hot energy ahead, straight into the cruisers, trying to hit something, not having a set target. It swung its arm to the side, slamming it into one of the cruisers, roaring loudly in rage...

[dinoman666]

Teh cruisers managed to scatter before the beam hit, but the unfortunate cruiser that got to close to the creature was immolated in a blue fireball, which scorched O-RLY's hide. More weapons fire came from the ships and Sentinels behind the beast, pounding its backside relentlessly. Several nukes, which were stationed in orbit around Trandosha (but had been used only sparingly in the previous battle), detonated near O-RLY, enveloping it in large spheres of white-hot energy.

[TyrannoTitan]

The creature roared in agony, the massive explosions burning his hide. Moving around, the creature roared, slammed its jaws shut on a group of smaller mechanical enemies, opening its maw once more as another burst of white energy erupted out, the torrent of energy sweeping over the ships in an attempt to destroy them all...
