Carnotaur and Rooster walk into the bar, Carnotaur still fingering his phase blaster. "Still got that nervous trigger finger, eh?" Buba asked.
Carnotaur nodded, then sat down at the table. The Voinian bartender ignored them. Carnotaur then pulled out his phase blaster and then activated the guns energy charger. The bartender then quickly went over to their table and gave them both a Borb soda, and Carnotaur put his blaster back into his holster. Then he turned to Buba.
"Buba, do you have ship?"
Buba looked surprised. "Yes."
"How much cargo can it carry?"
"Seventy tons."
"Armed?"
"Yes."
"Enough to stand up to a Zidara?"
"Well, uh, yeah."
"How fast?"
"Pretty fast."
"Good. Meet me on Kirtrak in 40 days. I'll explain more."
And with that, Carnotaur got up and quickly left the bar.

At first the governor of Kayia was reluctant to accept Thunder's plan, and it was only at the urging of several of his top aides that he was finally convinced. He now found himself in guest quarters aboard Thunder's Zidara, dropping out of hyperspace into the Bakoom system.
On the bridge of his ship, Thunder heard the familiar sound of warning sirens blaring as two renegade aradas converged on his position on attack vectors. Thunder responded in kind, ordering his own five Aradas to engage the enemy at close range. The renegades were almost instantly overpowered, one of their ships exploding in a brilliant fireball, and the other left floating disabled. Thunder manuevered his Zidara into position and secured his airlock onto the other ship. Several of his crew members boarded the disabled arada, retreiving the renegades on board, two of whom had already been knocked unconscious in the firefight. The Strandless authorities would take great pleasure in prosecuting them. As for the crippled arada, Thunder ordered two of his aradas to tow it into dock with them. After the authorities were through with it, the standard procedure would be to let Thunder keep it as an addition to his fleet.
-----------------------------
After gaining clearance to land, Thunder and his small fleet touched down in the spaceport on Bakoom's capital. Once his ship was secure, Thunder went on about his buisness. Accompanied by the Governor of Kayia, he strolled down the street until he reached the Bakoom Government headquarters. Inside he arranged to meet with the Prime Minister of Bakoom. After a breif wait, he and Kayia's governor were ushered into a small office where the prime minister sat, looking over some files at his desk. Seeing his guests enter, he set down his files and greeted them.
"As you know," Thunder began, speaking on behalf of the Kayan people, "both your system and the Akrahyek system are plagued by a constant onslaught from the renegades. We are locked in a perpetual struggle for survival. Many traders are too afraid of renegade attacks to come to our worlds to trade. None of us has the resources necessary to build a fleet large enough to defeat the renegades, and it is all we can do just to defend our own systems. Together, though, we might fare better. That's why I'm here to propose an alliance between our systems. We could combine our forces and our efforts. Together we'll have the resources to build a stronger force, with more Laziras and maybe even Crescent Warships, to augment the forces of aradas and crescent fighters the militia use today. We could coordinate our efforts and come to each other's aid when one of our worlds is under attack. Together we can fight off the renegades and defend the South Tip. So, what do you say?"
"It's an intriguing proposal." The prime minister replied. "I'll inform the senate at once, and I'll get back to you with an answer when they decide.

Continuation:
As Buba and Captain departed Buba quickly stopped by at a nearby bank to pick up his reward from the credit chip that his contact handed him.
Bank Clerk: "That comes to 50,000 credits. Cash?" Buba: "Uh... yes" It was more than he had expected and was a little taken back by the generous gift. Buba took the money and headed off to his ship to get it ready for flight. Deciding to look up a little background info on Captain, Buba planned a little trip to Dames before heading to Kitrak. I've got plenty of time he thought to himself as he entered his ship.

Hello. (again).
Name: Daedalus Clan: Renegade Race: Human Origin: Earth Occupation: Pirate Description: I was born on Earth and grew up bored. I was always an adventurous type, always climbing the tallest trees, swimming to the deepest depths in the ocean, jumping from the highest cliffs. I left college and bought myself a beat up scoutship. After going to the Voinian front, and exploring the worlds of the Miranu, I decided to join the renegades of the south tip. My raids were very successful and I soon developed a reputation and small fleet. I came to be respected in the North and South tips for my valient deeds. I have just begun a campaign against the Southern Miranu space far away from the Zatchit. ------------ Continuation: Com Officer: Daedalus, we have recieved the signal, all ships are in position. Excellent hyper in. In the Smott system, 3 Cresent Warships and 2 Aradas escorted 2 heavy miranu freighters in. <Transmission to Smott station and merchants> (if there is no station in Smott then it is the closest place with a station) <Lower all shields and prepare to be boarded. Otherwise prepare to die.> <End Transmission> The station was completely undefended, Pirates almost never attacked this far south. Some daring merchants tried to speed away but the CW's fire pursuit missles and the retreating ships blew up into fireballs. The rest of the merchant's dropped shields and the station prepared to be boarded. The Renegade Aradas went to the various merchant ships, boarded them and stole their goods and money. The CW's and Heavy Freighters boarded the station. Daedalus's fleet then left the system considerably richer.
------------------ ---------------------- Give them shell! give them solid shot! Damn them, give them anything!
The lord of the Azdgari has been doing some research. He traces his family back long ago, and determines that they were actually from a far away world. He decides that if he could find this world, his race could develop an alliance. He tells his escorts to stay behind except for 6 Azdaras from the AW's to guard the border from any new species that may be hostile, and sets his course west. Soon he sees a very strange looking ship, It is a small red fighter with two large protruding weapons on either side of the cockpit. It seems to be scanning him. He instructs his escorts to hold back as he easily approaches the fighter and moves into comm range. Suddenly a voice plays out from his speakers: "Unidentified craft in sector 7G, report." "This is Yoo Oe, lord of the all-powerful Azdgari. Do not take any hostile or you will be destroyed. Please report your status, race, and alliances." "This is Lt. Bill Smith of the 2904th United Earth air wing, on patrol outside Molos. I am not hostile. By UE code 1027b, you are required to lower shields and power down weapons systems when you enter united earth space. I will now provide escort to the nearest spaceport, where you will be met by a foreign relations team." Yoo Oe, lord of the Azdgari, orders his escorts to return to Veltes with a full report, and follows this pilots instructions. At the saceport, he is met by a team of so-called 'UE' agents of a race he has never seen before. They question him about his background, and he asks about their government. They are currently engaged in a friendly conversationm about new worlds and peoples from far corners of the galaxy. "Where is your headquarters?" "Our capitol is Earth, in the Sol system." Earth, he must have heard that word somewhere. "Tell me how to get there." "I'm sorry, but you need to have a follow-up questioning before I can permit you to leave..." The Azdgari stands up. "Now. I control the most powerful race in the galaxy. Do not question my decision. I am going to earth." He takes a map from the terrified official and runs to his ship, determined to solve the mystery of his past.

Alright Im the head of the Zacha. Ill kill any renegade I see. and as i said before... Name:Zacha Snake Occupation:Head of Zachit Born:New Tokyo Ship:Igazraand Weapons:Phase Turrets(6),57 SAE Moduels,a plasma siphon,and a cloacking device. Escorts: Two Igazdra Aradas, Four Zachit Fighters, and One cesent Warship
------------------ My name is Zacha Snake, if anyone tries to mess with me I just have one thing to say..... YOUR GOING DOWN!!!
Um, Buba, what kind of ship are you in, and how is it armed?
---------------
Landing on Dames, Buba scanned the spaceport for anyone who might know anything about Carnotaur. Suddenly remembering where Carnotaur's home was (Carnotaur had told him a while ago but Buba had forgot, until now), Buba made his way to Dames City, the second largest city on Dames and the Azdgari's main ship manufacturing facility.
After getting lost at least a dozen times, Buba finally found where Carnotaur's dad worked. It was a shipyard, and then Buba remembered that Carnotaur said that he had worked for the Azdgari with his dad before he left Dames. Buba saw an Azdgari, and asked him where Carnotaur's dad was.
"Not here," the Azdgari replied. "Gone. Come back soon with warship."
"Warship?" Buba asked, just as a majestic Azdgari warship glided over the city and then set down on the landing field ajacent to the shipyard. Carnotaur's dad was a tall, muscular, human who was at the time wearing a grey flight suit. Buba interrupted Carnotaur's dad in while he was talking with his Azdgari second-in-command. After asking Carnotaur's dad, who said to call himself 'Intimidator' (name sound familar? ), Buba left to go back to his ship.
After looking up Carnotaur on the galactic person register, Buba actually found out very litle about him. All that he knew was that Carnotaur was a mercenary, sympethizing with the Azdgari, UE, and Voinians. Buba also learned that Carnotaur had been involved in at least 1 or 2 smuggling missions, but nothing much else. However, Buba was puzzled about the fact that the Galactic Person Registry had so little information on him. They usually had much more. Strange...
Buba then set a course for Kitrak...
Rima lifts off from Pozdag-3 in her ship,Silverdawn.She circles the planet as a pirate jumps in the system.The Zidgar ships Take care of it and Rima jumps out of the system towards Mirava with some cargo.
Zacha Snake heads for Mirava hoping to get apeice of those damn Zidagar.....
Rima hops into Mirava and circles the planet to slow the ship.She lands on the planet to deliver the cargo.
Zacha Snake assembles his fleet and jumps into Mirava......
Rima quickly makes The SAD modules her secondary weapon, incase the fleet shoots on Silverdawn.
Zacha Snake in S.S. Flaming Spear starts shooting at the Zidaga ship launching SAE modules flickering as they smash into the ship. Pursuit Missles Flying Everywhere. At the same time this battle is ocurring Zacha Snake remembers how they shot down his family in a miranu ship the Zidagar had no reason too they were just haveing fun so Zacha Snake has made an oath to destroy any corrupt Zidagar that he sees!
Ah, a new female arrival to the boards...Zelda will be pleased. I accept everybody's arrangements so far. Also, Rima, you don't have to be so technical. Powering of weapons, shields, etc. is considered automatic, as well as slowing of the ship.
Rooster walked onto the Ops deck of the Zodiac the next morning. Aeshek: "Get enough sleep, Commander?" Rooster: "Yes Lieutenant, thank you. Have our engine repairs been made yet?" Just then Officer Yalben walked in. Yalben: "Quite efficiently, sir. We couldn't have expected better from even Pybin." Aeshek: "Actually, now that you brought it up...Commander, Station Pybin* was raided yesterday." Rooster: "Who?!" Aeshek: "Daedalus, sir." Rooster jumped into the Nav seat and powered hyperdrives. Rooster: "Find out where he is, i'll set a course to Pybin and we'll track his signature if it's still hot. The warship entered hyperspace and would arrive at Pybin in three hours.
*Station Pybin - My recent residence and closest station to unihabited Smott.
------------------ It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.

Incase your shooting at my ship,I'm a Lazira.Thats to I'm the best at Evo.And I'll stop being technical. ----------------------------------------------------- Rima uncertain of what to do, rima uses her turrets against any attack on her ship.
Zacha Snake is not attacking Rima but the Zidagar ship that followed her to Mirava
Zidgar followed me?ok. ------------------------------------- Rima watches the Fight,but does not get into.The zidgara does not ask for help so she does not help it.She watches the fleet attackiong it and wonders what the Zidgara did to make The fleet angry.
OK, here are the listings. And, the idea was that people (those of you that chose to own a nation) would open their own nations on the EVO territory slots. So Arada, you can name and conduct the Azdgari space as your own. Imthebest, Titan, Nova, same for ya'll.
NATIONS
Arada Pilot - Azdgari space, Azdgari Empire, <no ship name> Imthebest - Zachit area, Zachit Station, Z.S. Flaming Spear Titan - UE space, United Earth, <no ship name> Nova - Voinian space, Voinian Empire, <no ship name> Thunder - South Tip, Kayan Alliance, Starship Storm
INDEPENDENTS
Rooster - Hired Operative, Starship Zodiac Carnotaur - Operative, Starship Carnotaur Buba - Hired Smuggler, Dark Shadow Daedalus - Pirate, Wind Thief Rima - Hired Operative, Starship Silverdawn
Sorry if any of this is wrong. Let's get stuff named people!
