SilverDragon frowned. "Nothing?"
"No, sir. The ships are waiting in the next system," the officer replied.
SilverDragon shrugged. "Then move back to Igadzra space, right away."
"Yes, sir," the officer stated.

With that, the fleet began the trip back to Igadzra space.

The Federation fleet charged forward, all weapons ablaze. The remnants of the Edien fleet in the Notil system finally collapsed. As the few damaged ships retreated, the Federation started to set up a defense perimeter and a ring of mines.
Notil was now in Federation hands and Mark was cut off from the other Igadzra systems.

Arada Pilot looked over the latest tactical reports and the latest research reports. The Viper was doing well, considering, and should be done soon.
Suddenly, a red light started to bleep which signaled an emergency transmittion. After reading the message sent by the Igadzra, Arada Pilot thought for a moment, then decided to send a message in response:

"If you think we have the technology and forces to take the Ediens on," Thunder replied to Carnotaur, "then I'll trust that you know what you're talking about. After all, you have been fighting them for six years. I'll see to it that my scientists cooperate to help our ships have the best technology possible. We'll need it if we're going to kick the Ediens out of our galaxy once and for all." Thunder smiled slighty. Maybe together they would stand a chance of winning this war...

MOD: I hope you remember Grundulator that you're still surrounded and that the fleet preventing you from escaping (in the DSN-8209 system) is still intact and is composed of about 12,000 vessels. You would PROBABLY be able to break through it, but you'd suffer heavy losses and you'd have to fight for a while to get past it.
-----------
Carnotaur smiled. "Quite indeed. I actually just got a report from our science team which is working with your scientists on S-570. They've begun research on a new type of detection technology, a new shield generator, as well as some enhancements to our quantum weaponry and sub-space weaponry.
"However, there is something more important."
Carnotaur walked over to a large control pannel, used for displaying large maps, and turned it on. A map appeared, which displayed Kayia, South Tip Station II, and thousands of other Federation ships and ship groups.
"This my friends," Carnotaur said, turning from the map to the representatives and leaders, "Is the Federate 7th Fleet, one of the most renowned fleets in the galaxy. This fleet was first created during the beginning of the Edien invasion and has grown more powerful ever since.
"It has currently joined up with several other fleets. The 37th, the 22nd, the 103rd, and the 114th. It has a size of almost 100,000 vessels. We plan to eventually use the 7th Fleet in our upcoming invasions of Azdgari and Zidagar space. The Voinians will be taking Miranu space and crescent space."
Carnotaur turned once again to the map. "Gentlmen, and ladies. This is one of the arranged plans which we will embark upon to drive out the Ediens," Carnotaur said, then turned back to look at Thunder and the others.
"Our first mission will obviously be to drive out the Ediens. We will first drive them out of Igadzra space, then Zidagar space, then Azdgari space. Meanwhile the Voinians will be finishing up their campaign against Miranu space and Crescent space.
"We will also be working on improving our tech. Kayan and Federation scientists on S-570 will continue to work on that. Thirdly, we will be lending you the partial use of a number of our shipyards and facilities to increase the size of their navies.
"Fourthly, there is the Igadzra Republic. I suggest that we work with Horoth scientists and the Voinians to try and find a way through the Pirate hoards and the scattered Edien mines that infest the middle portion of the Ji Nebula. We must also figure out a way to get past all the interference.
"We must fithly work on repairing the damage done to the Miranu coreworlds." Carnotaur turned to Rima. "Once you have a big enough fleet, you can send it, along with an escorting Voinian fleet to go to Mira and assess the situation immediately.
"Now, is there any other potential plans that we should put into action?"

Hawk sat in his office looking over records coming in from Sirabor, Racet, and a dozen other places. Many battles had been won in the Miranu worlds and that relieved the Kisani. It gave morale to those who had lost those worlds. Outside the office, the corridors would be bustling with new crewers, now that everything had been taken care of. The Kiran forces had five hundered ships left, and with the new shipyards running in Racet, progress was now being made to build new slipfighters. The building would be slow, but necessary. Sisay had been briefed on his idea, and a few ships would be outfited with holo-emiters. It would be faulty in the least, but it could give them an edge.
The captain got up and threw down the last report and headed out the door. The office was starting to get to him and he needed a open space. He walked down the corridors of the massive ship, nodding to the crewers as he went; he entered a lift and ordered for deck 20. The lift shuttled down at a steady pace and Hawk took time to think. The Kiran had been attacking rather clumsy of late and needed a plan, something that could do massive damage to morale as well as hardware losses. Kisa could give the Kiran an edge, but it would be several weeks before an attempt to jump back was posible. In the mean time the Saer would be the only ship which stood a chance against an Edien battlecruiser in one on one without support.
The lift stopped and the doors opened up to reveal a huge room full of plants and even a few small trees. It was one of the more intresting features, called the Garden. Food grew here in case the normal supplies ran out. Hawk plucked a fruit from a tree and bit into it. His thought were now on a memorable battle tale he had heard as a child; the manuver a dying arada captain had executed a manuver called the double jump...
Hawk dropped the fruit and with a smile ran across his face. As he ran, he tapped his wristlink and ordered a fighter preped for launch. He was going to Kayia

"Unless the Federation has been emphasizing in speed," Thunder spoke up, "The fastest and most maneuverable vessel available to us is the Kayan Firefly. A small squadron of these, say three or four, could easily negotiate a sparse minefield. The only problem would be Edien patrols, since the Firefly on it's own is only a light fighter. Perhaps with some support ships from the Voinians and Federation we could get a Firefly squadron through to F-25, and contact the refugees who took shelter there."

Rima nodded thoughtfully. She left the room for a few moments to send some messages out.So she needed a bigger fleet did she? Well, those 3 shipyards she had been given were being put to their work then. With the prototype Miranu Warships done she started building 3 ships in each shipyard.
It was a tight space, and obviously some ships were bigger than others, but it should take a few weeks to get all those ships done. Then she'd have 3 more Warships, 2 more Crescent fighters, 3 Lazira's, and of course, another freighter.
The pulse Weaponry was coming along on schedule. It looked good so far and should be done in around 2-4 weeks. Probably 2 since her research team had nothing too do but research the Weaponry.
She thoughtfully looked at her fleet positioning. They weren't doing anything at the moment. She shrugged and sent them off to Feviry. She walked back to the meeting room and sat down as if she had never left.

Carnotaur nodded. "Yes, quite possibly. Maybe we could send along several squadrons of Federate Azdaras to protect the fireflies. They are quite fast and could easily escort you.
"But the problem isn't trying to get around the mines, it's finding the mines in the first place. They are all equipped with rudimentary cloaking systems and the interference jams our scans. A few of them aren't cloaked, but those aren't a problem. However, I have an idea; do you have some sort of sub-space scanner?"

Finally a few days after the hangover the small fleet arrived. Kryptauros yelled to the idiot long range scanner dude.
"Are we ok to engage them?!"
"Hold on sir the reading are comming in."
.....
.....
.....
.....
"They are still there sir.......would you like to engage them?"
"No you idiot I want to stay here. YES I WANT TO KICK THERE BUTTS! Everybody move out to the NSI-231 system. All warhead freighters evacuate to another vessel. We will now control them by computer. Raiding party move out to Zeus. Let's rock this joint!"
The fleet hyperspaced into NSI-231 and started the battle. Pirate vessels with explosives on them exploded, damaging the ships and destroying some. You could tell the Igadzra fleet wasn't prepared because most of the guns didn't start to fire for about 30 seconds. The fleet started to move foward with all weapons engaged towards the battleships of the Igadzra fleet. Then out of the cloud of the fleet, the 8 freighters packed with warheads emerged from the Akrahd fleet and started towards the bulk of the Igadzra fleet to blow them apart to itsy bitsy pieces.
Battle Stats so far:
Akrahd Losses: 46 from pirate detonation
Igadzra Losses: a couple so far
Total Akrahd Ships: 384
Total Igadzra Ships: a little less than 200

"Sir, there seems to have been a ship that just came in, an arada, carrying a bunch of Kisani. They've been asking a lot of strange questions around. They look suspicious. Permission to bring them in for questioning," the Federate sergent asked.
Lieutenant Mako thought for a moment. "Okay, bring them in. And do a scan on that arada."
"Yes sir!" the lieutenant saluted, then went off to get his men.
------------
A Federate battlecruiser, on patrol in the Riomor system, got a communication from Freeport. It ordered the battlecruiser, the U.F.S. Wasp, to scan an arada which had just docked with Freeport.
The Wasp captain shrugged and ordered the ship to move ahead full towards the station. The Wasp approached the docked arada, slowed down, and began a high intensity scan.
"Standard hull, engines, bio readings...Wait a second, this is strange..." the sensor officer peered at the screen.
"What is it?" the captain said, turning around and coming over to look at the sensor readout along with the XO.
"I think I'm seeing something that I don't think I'm seeing," the sensor operator replied.
"Which would be...what?" the XO (executive officer) asked.
The lieutenant looked at the screen ever harder and finally his eyes opened wide. "It's an Edien sir! I didn't believe it at first, but secondary scans prove it; a female Edien is onboard that arada!"
The captain turnd to the XO. "Prepare a boarding team of marines! Helm bring us on top of the arada! Communications, send messages to Freeport and to any nearby vessels; we have an Edien intruder. Sensors; begin scans for any nearby Edien vessels or Edien lifesigns."
---------
An entire platoon of Federate marines were soon positioned near the docking port entrance to the arada. Most of them were actually marines from the Wasp. Right then there were several ships around the arada. The wasp, the Armageddon, a frigate, two patrol ships, and another destroyer, the Crouching Tiger.
"Ready, set, GO!" the marine XO ordered. Two marines moved forward and blew in the door with a phase grenade, and then they all stormed the arada, guns at the ready. Charging into the ship, the marines quickly secured most of the vessel and headed towards the cockpit area. The first two marines were met my Admiral Tach'usd, weilding a proton rifle on stun. One of the marines was stunned, but the other jumped on the Edien officer and wrenched the gun away from her. Tach'usd responded with a fast punch to the marines stomache, followed by another bash on the back which sent the marine to the floor.
However, more marines soon arrived. Two entered, were stunned, and then a third and fourth entered. The Proton Rifle was shot away, hurting the admirals hand slightly. The Edien karate chopped (yes, the Ediens know karate, learned it from interrogating a human prisoner once) one of the marines on the shoulder, but he responded with a quick left hook which seen the Edien admiral sprawling into a nearby consol. The marine lept, but hit the control pannel instead as the admiral rolled aside and hit the marine on the back. As he collapsed to the floor, the other burly marine moved forward in a karate stance. The other marines had all been human. This one was different; he was an Igadzra.
The Admiral swung her fist forward, but that was blocked, and the Igadzra responded with a stunning blow to the side of the admiral. She fell down, got up again, and kicked at the Igadzra's leg. He hit the knee, and as the Igadzra clenched his leg in pain, the admiral reached for the proton rifle lying on the ground.
But the Igadzra soon recovered and bashed the admiral on the back, sending her down. But Tach'usd wasn't finished yet. In a quick action, she swung her leg to the side, catching the Igadzra off balance and tripping him. The Igadzra crashed down onto the pannel, out cold. Tach'usd got up and turned around directly into the face of an Azdgari marine. The Azdgari growled then leaped onto Tach'usd. The Admiral karate chopped, but that was blocked and the Azdgari swung his fist forward, which was blocked. Tach'usd tried to swing him into the nearby wall, but she only got halfway there before the Azdgari twisted his hands free and flipped the admiral onto the floor.
The Edien jumped up again, and swung a fist at the Azdgari. The Azdgari bashed the hand away and swung again, got blocked, and swung with the other arm, which bashed Tach'usd on the side of her head. Tach'usd responded but several karate chops, most of which were blocked. The Azdgari responded by grabbed Tach'usd by the shoulders. Tach'usd wrenched one arm free and swung at the Azdgari, who grabbed that one, then sent his head flying forward in a quick movement. Before the Edien could respond, the Azdgari bashed his head into hers twice, then let her go, and swung hard. Tach'usd blocked, but it had only been a diversion. The Azdgari's other hand swung wide and smashed into Tach'usd's stomache. She collapsed, holding her stomache.
The Azdgari just grinned, picked up the proton rifle lying nearby, and called in for the other marines to move in, arrest Tach'usd, and bring her to S-570 where she would be interrogated. The Azdgari also called the Freeport command center and told them to arrest and jail all of the Kisani that had come along in the arada.

Oh yes, I forgot about that. Where did you end up in Voinian space? Oh yes, Priat. Well, actually, Nelson, Priat isn't inhabited and no one, not even the Ediens or Voinians, goes there. At least for now. However, I suggest you end up either in the Smott or Holmm system. Both of those are Voinians.

Hawk Kael landed at the designated pad. As the Kisani left the azdara, he grabed a small holo-imager and datacrystal. On it held plans for a a few ship modifactaions to various designs. He had no time to spare at anything so he quickly cut through the starport to the ship techs of Kayia. His mind was ringing with a different dozen plans, but one was predominant.
Hawk reached the office of one of the main technicans, who's door was open, and burst into the office. He walked up to the some-what startled tech and put the projector on his desk, inserted the data crystal and turned it on. Up poped a standard arada model with some highlighted effects about the hyperdrive and engines. "I want a ship like this, with the appropriate modifacations. I aslo want to talk to the highest ranked offical free at this time. It doesn't matter if it's President Carnotaur, Bendon, or even the Royal Emperor of the Fallen Azdgari Empire."

The Voinian cruiser carrying Admiral Ly'rak, and its escorts, soon entered the Voinia system. Descending into the atmosphere of Voinia itself, the cruiser soon touched down with a loud and jolting "THUD!".
Ly'rak disembarked along with his guards; about two platoons of highly trained Voinian soldiers, and another eight soldiers which were from the base. Ly'rak was take to a special building, and into an elevator, which began to descend.
It went down about four floors and finally stopped, and its passengers exited. They headed for a room at the end of a long hall. Two massive, hulking Voinian guards stood beside the door. Ly'rak knew that it was in that room where he would get interrogated...

The Edien Freighter maneuvered into the air, and quickly blasted away from the surface of Edien Prime. This wasn't an ordinary freighter, however. It carried the captured Edien Emperor, Hk'ryund Rigadaz.
"Set course for the Sladerei system, commander," General Grathon ordered the pilot. "We will be making a temporary base on Sladerei's moon, until a more mobile platform comes along." Grathon said with a smirk.
"Yes Sir," The marine said as the freighter disappeared, on a course for the Sladerei system.
Ly'rak stared as he entered the room on Voinia. There was a large Voinian, who was obviously the Interrogator inside with several other fearful gaurds. He stood 6'5, and appeared incredibly muscular, and highly alert. It was no wonder the Voinian Soldiers feared him. There was a commanding presence to this burly Voinian.
"Now, my young Edien Friend," he said, sarcasm dripping from his voice, "We shall discuss your future Predicament."
Ly'rak stared straight ahead, genuinely afraid.
The two Kisani watched as two Federation security officers approached. The Kisani continued with the odd questions, apperently oblivious to the two officers.
As the Two officers approached, one of the odd Kisani shouted out to him. "Do you know where the nearest Edien base is?"
The officer stared quizically at the Kisani. "You're Under arrest. Come with us," he told him, deciding to ignore the question.
The Two Kisani had binding devices placed on their hands, and were lead away.
Now completely locked up, the two Kisani seemed rather confused. The Federation was holding them for unjust reasons, in their minds.
"Who are you?" One of the officers asked.
"We are Kisani. I am Falsat, and this is my brother, Josad." The shorter of the two Kisani said.
"Why are you here, and why was there an Edien aboard your ship?" The officer asked, his voice heavy with suspicion.
The short Kisani paused, and his brother answered in his place. "We are Edien Slaves. We have been under thier control for several years now. The Edien we were with, Tach'usd, who happens to be an extremely high ranking Admiral in the vile and corrupt Edien Empire, wanted to use us on a mission of hers."
The shorter Kisani continued. "She was brainwashing us to perform for her, but we are stronger then that. We are Kisani, with the Fates on our side. She insisted upon us the importance of infiltrating your command structure and giving you info about one of her no doubt evil schemes, which I am reluctant to inform you of."
"However we were able to escape her clutches, and we wish to assist you in bringing down these Edien scum.Please help make our dream a reality." The taller Kisani begged the Federation officers.
Tach'usd was completely exhausted. That battle with the Federation marines had taken a lot out of her. If her Kisani slaves performed adaquately, her capture would be worth it. As long as the Federation recieved information about the new construction project from a reliable source, Her mission would be fine.
"Who are you, Edien Scum?" The Voinian asked in a deep voice.
"I am Admiral Ly'rak, one of the twelve members of the Edien Military Council, you moronic thick-headed Voinian," Ly'rak said with cockiness that completely covered up his fear. He could not look weak in front of the interrogator.
"I wouldn't care if you were the Edien Emperor, I'm still going to see that you get a through Interrogation." As the Voinian said this, the soldiers ran forward with a strange looking device. They began attaching peices of it onto Ly'rak. "This is our 'convincining machine.' It sends a high jolt of pain every few seconds. It alone produces reliable information."
With a flick of a switch, Ly'rak began screaming out in pain. "What do you want with the Kelmoan system?" The interrogator asked.
Between screams and heavy breathing, Ly'rak responded.' My orders were to capture.." he trailed off as another jolt of pain rippled through him. "The Kelmoan system" he finished, breathing heavily.
"Why?" The interrogator asked, increasing the intensity of the jolts.
"Griting his teeth, Lyrak spoke out in a soft voice." The Emperor believes the planet to be rich in metals, but it doesn't matter what he wants anymore."
"Why is that?" the Interrogator asked with semi-fascination.
"Because, as of now, I am the Emperor." Ly'rak all but whispered.

Hawk turned and said, "Greetings, Admiral; I've heard much about you. But I'm afraid I can't dispense with pleasentries. I want to inform the only known ally my people have that as of five hours ago, every Kiran vessel has been ordered into full battle status. The Kiran have some five hundered vessels left, much of them mid-ranged to heavy warships. Four hundered of those ships are going on the offensive in the largest battle they've seen in a hundred years. Three ships will be using a manuver that will be very destructive, so any Federation ship that is to jump to realspace in the specified system should hold in hyperspace until over."
Hawk pointed to the holo-image shimmering in air. "I want three of those built for use by the Federation. Tell Bendon or Carnotaur that it will be essential for the data I give them. The manuver I have in mind will be the three ships to execute a jump as they jump to realspace, yet while they're still in hyperspace. No ship in realspace will have time to react, and it will be guarenteed that any ship the size of an Edien battlecrusier will be little more then spacedust. I don't want any other ship in that vincinity, wheter it be Federation, Voinian, Miranu, or even ships claiming to be of the old United Earth. If you want to send ships in after that, then go ahead. But until then, it is my call. The plans in that datacrystal also include plans to build a Crusader class battleship. I'm going into battle and mine is the only one in existence, but should I fall I want to make sure your people have the knowhow of how to build it. Also I want it known that if I fall, Sisay is to be given command of the Kiran fleet or what remains; if he falls the remaining ships go to the Federation."
"I wanted to tell someone in person for the sake that I owe it. I failed to act when Mira fell, when Azdgari space and Zidagar and even Voinian space fell. I plan on going down fighting, but I also want to make sure that the Ediens know how savagely even Kisani can fight. Fleet Admiral Scorcher, I wish you good day. This will perhaps be our first and final meeting. The Fates guide all of us through this, and may your God be with you in the end." With that Hawk left, leaving behind the projector and crystal.
