      I withdraw some of the Aradas I sent, as they overflow the limits. I think the AW's are still in there because of Igadzra space.

      I instruct the blockade fleet to start defending the south tip, and send messages to all allies that the kayans have joined us.

      Does anyone keep a map for this story? If so, whats the URL?

      Moderation: The Kayans have not joined you, maybe 15 million would have done it but with the 10 million, you were invited to negotiations. I cannot control the Kayans. You are welcome to present any diplomacy on equal terms though.

      On Mira, Rooster waited outside the trade center for three hours. Suddenly, he saw Carnotaur approaching. He appeared unarmed. "Where is my crew?" Rooster demanded when Carnotaur reached him.

      "Here, on Mira. Go to the second continet, near the main area of grasslands. There you will find the Zodiac with its crew as well as the other two crews. I will be unable to give you back the other two CWs, since I have already given them away to two other pilots. Now, where's Intimidator?"

      Rooster had Aeshek hand Intimidator, in stasis, over to Carnotaur. Then, Carnotaur suddenly dropped Intimidator, and pulled out a phase blaster. "Got you, Rooster. Know what happened to Rene? Her escape pod was attacked by a Kayian patrol! I expect a FULL apology on your part, and your promise that it WON'T happen again. Deal?"

      Arada Pilot: I will call of the attack, for now. But if they refuse I will attack south tip station.

    • <MESSAGE TO ARADA PILOT>
      Fellow friend and emporer, I have a request. I suggest that three of us, the Voinians, the Captains of S-570, and the Azdgari, work together to help expand our empires. We can help each other but sending reinforcements, lending credits, exchanging technology, and the like. For my first exchange idea, I will give you Phase Neutron Technology (phase weapons with neutron strength, explain more later) in exchange for your maneuverability upgrades and some info on shield regeneration. Also, thank you for the credits.

    • Rooster: "Hehe...you fool. Don't you know i never bring my captives with me? That pod is empty, and you will compensate for my lost ships one way or another!" He then pulls out his ion blaster to match Carnotaur's.

      (remember, i never said Intimidator was in the pod.)

      It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.

    • Since nobody wants to speak for Verane, I'll do the honors.

      "If the Renegade threat is as great as you make it out to be, Samurai, it appears we have no choice but to form an alliance between the Zachit and the Kayans. I'll send some of my Aradas back to Kayia with you."
      "Glad to hear it."

      Back on board the Gunslinger, Samurai speaks with Buba.
      "So you don't know what that Voinian Cargo on your ship was?"
      "No, I don't have any idea."
      "Well, it must be pretty important. Tell you what. I'll get you to your ship, and from there you can go wherever you wanna go. But if they catch you, don't tell them I rescued you. That would put a damper on my relations with the Zachit. Understand?"
      "Yes."

      Samurai brings Buba back to his ship, under the disguise of a crew member once again. Buba races aboard and prepares to take off, while Samurai discretly heads back to the Gunslinger. Buba takes off, and the Zachit are furious that he has escaped. Samurai leaves for Kayia with ten Zachit Aradas, just as a task force is being formed to follow Buba.

    • Carnotaur is startled, but only for a moment. He seems to calm down. "But Rooster, I can't componsate you! I don't have enough money! Hand over Intimidator, and I'll repay you for the loss of the two CWs, however I can't do that now. I have to go to Igadzra and pick up someone first. And I still want your apologizes for Rene being attacked."

    • "Sir, we intercepted a message to someone named 'LonveVoiniana'. Do you know who that is?" "Yes. Me. WHY IS IT THAT NO ONE CAN PRONOUNCE MY NAME RIGHT!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry. What was the message about?" "He said that he wanted to know what the cargo you gave him was. He wanted you to meet him on Voina." "Very well. Lets go there. Power up the Hyperdrive." "Yes sir." In a blinding flash of light, the Dreadnaught was gone, heading to Voinian space.

    • On Kayia, the RA diplomats negotiated a treaty. They wanted to be at peace with the Kayans because there was a greater enemy. The diplomats also requested that thunder board a transport to Daedulus's secret base on F-25. Daedalus had some things to say. The Agdzari diplomats wanted the Kayans to join them. What will Thunder do?

    • Oh boy. That was a bad typo. We should make a list of typos for Lonevoinian's name. Here are a few that I made up:
      1-LonveVoiniana
      2-Lonvona
      3-LoneZoinian
      4-LoneVikivegimetikite
      5-LoneVetamitameggamin

      Hehe. Back to the story....

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

      Meanwhile, Captain LoneIgadzra, Carnotaur's top man, went to Igadzra. Landing on the planet using an old Igadzra pass code of his, Captain LoneIgadzra lands in a remote part of Igadzra. Transmitting a special resonance code to the surrrounding hills, a hill suddenly disappears. It was a hologram, and now that it was gone, it exposed a small tunnel leading into Igadzra itself. Entering the tunnel, the Igazra then transmitted the code again, reactivating the hill hologram.

      After traveling through the tunnel for half a minute, the LoneIgadzra entered a massive open underground cave. Landing on a small landing pad in the middle, two other Igadzra exited a building nearby. Captain LoneIgadzra met with them.

      "Hello again, Captain LoneIgadzra," said the other Igadzra captain.

      "Hello Captain Darkk, I have a mission for you," LoneIgadzra replied.

      "Computers?" the other Igadzra commander asked.

      "Yes, computer hacking to be exact," LoneIgadzra replied. "We have a small problem. Carnotaur is running out of credits, and fast. Although the 15 million that Arada Pilot gave him will sustain us for a while longer, we need a lot more. Once we have these extra credits, we can help expand our colonies, bring in more colonists and trade, and thus get more credits. Enough so that we won't have to ask for emergency supplies of it. Can you hack us some?"

      The two Igadzra (a captain and commander) smiled. "Sure thing. Who's the target?"

      "The Zidagar. I would rather get the Miranu, they're computers are easier to break into and they have more credits, however Carnotaur believes that an action like this upon the Miranu would not be good for diplomatic relations. So, get the Zidagar."

      "How much?"

      "Fifteen grand."

      The three Igadzra then walked into the large building sitting down at two computers, the two Igadzra computer experts went to work. Hacking into the Zidagar Credit System, they had to work past hundreds of security barriers and numerous booby traps for computer hackers. However, these Igadzra were professionals, and soon they were able to hack into 15 million credits. Then, the Igadzra captain turned to Captain LoneIgadzra. "We've been able to hack 15 million credits for you. I've arranged for them to be sent to the Stror system on board a frieght-courier."

      LoneIgadzra smiled, and handed them both 500,000 credits. "Good job. Bye for now."

      Leaving quickly, the LoneIgadzra took off and then exited the Igadzra system. Arriving in the Stror system, Captain LoneIgadzra found and disabled the frieght-courier carrying the 40 million credits. Grabbing them quickly and strashing them aboard the Igazra cruiser, the LoneIgadzra then hyperspaced toward S-570 under cloak...

    • :::ECONOMY REPORT:::
      Here is the list of how much money indivuals have:

      Daedalus (RA): 24 million + .2 mil/day*
      Thunder (Kayans): 15 million + .2 mil/day*
      Carnotour (Captains): 29 million
      Roostersw: 1 million (if you have more just tell me, I don't remember how much you got from missions)
      Buba: 1 million (same as with Roostersw)
      Lonevoinian: 3 million (same as with Buba)
      Titan (Zidagar): 40 million + 3 mil/day*
      Arada Pilot (Agdzari): 20 million + 4 mil/day*
      Nova6 (Voinians): 10 million + 1 mil/day*

      • = all days are actual real life days

      If I missed any or your money and/or rates seem wrong. Submit your argument and I will make the nessesary changes.

    • Slight Moderation: Carno, that was a good way to get money. However, even with security protocals today it would be nearly impossible. I will grant that the Hackers were able to get you 10 million which they found in an old emergency account. Also the Zidagar have full knowlege of the actions of the Hackers. I will update the Economy Report. Please edit your post.

    • Daedalus, these Igadzra hackers are professionals (they also only work for me and my allies), the best in the business. They've been working on stuff like that and doing it for years. They have the absolute latest in computer technology, and are very good at what they do. However, I will lower it down to 15 million, but no less. So see, they just don't grab one emergy account, they grab little bits from hundreds of accounts. The Zidagar know about them, but they can't trace it.

      Also, how come Titan gets 3 million (from his little tiny empire being killed by the Azdgari), Thunder and you get 2 million per day, and Nova6 only gets 1 million per day from his HUGE empire? And how come I don't get any? It doesn't make any sense...

      I only have ten million!? I should have more than that. And Lonevoinian should get at least one million per day, he controls UE space. (He's my seconed in command) And I should get more than just on million per day. I control a HUGE empire!

      **

      Thunder stood absolutely still considering his next move for at least 30 seconds. Then he made his choice. He first turned to his diplomats and the Azdgari diplomats. "This is a difficult situation." He began. "Diplomats, please continue your negotiations. Both our races have threats to face, and a non-agression treaty would be beneficial to both of us. Our races have enough to deal with without having to fight one another as well."

      Then Thunder turned to Daedulus: "I will hear you out, and will accompany you to F-25, though I don't guarantee any results. But I would prefer to travel in a Kayan arada, if it's all the same to you. You understand that less than a week ago we were at war with your people, and I am still reluctant to board one of your ships. I will disable the navigational records and all non-essential computer files on the arada before we depart, so there will be no record of the location of your base."

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

      Also, about the economy report: seeing as there are six Kayan worlds, some with considerable populations, I think .4 million per day (or at least .3) would be more reasonable than .2 .

      Look closer... Daedulus and I only get 0.2 million per day under the current levels...
