Thunder and several other Kayan Alliance Militia officials sat at a table aboard South Tip Station discussing the condition of the Alliance.
"Renegade attacks on the 3 alliance systems are down 45%." reported one of the officers. "And civilian losses are down 80%"
"We've combined the militia forces from Kayia, South Tip Station, Obutes, and Bakoom to form the Kayan Alliance Militia." reported another. "We've purchased four crescent warships to augment the militia forces and are in the process of constructing additional Laziras and Crescent Warships to expand our forces and accomidate the new militia recruits. We're also working to outfit many of the new ships with pursuit missiles."
"Trade to our worlds is up 400%." Thunder noticed. "It looks word of the Kayan Alliance is getting around in the merchant community."
"We're conducting training exercises to improve the fighting experience and effectiveness of the militia." said a third officer. "If the renegades step up their attacks, we want to be ready with a strong, well-trained force."

Zacha Snake goes to Igazdra and gets a few escorts since hes old friends of them. He goes to Zacha Station and Upgrades all his ships with armor and sheild upgrades. He rhen hires a few more arada escorts. He then goes to nearby sytems of the rock and disables a few lazrias and boards them for escorts he now has a fleet twice the size of his old one. He may still need help and will pay good money to anyone who helps(and if victorious).
------------------ My name is Zacha Snake, if anyone tries to mess with me I just have one thing to say..... YOUR GOING DOWN!!!
After Buba lands and goes into the bar on Kirtrak, he immediately sees Carnotaur sitting at a table. Sitting down at the table and ordering some Saalian Brandy, Buba speaks. "Well, I'm here. What do you want?"
Before Carnotaur can answer, three Zidagar soldiers enter the bar. A hush falls upon the partons. Without waiting a second, Carnotaur leaps out of his chair and pulls out his phase blaster. Although the Zidagar already have their phase beamers armed and ready, Carnotaur blasts all three of them before they can react. As two Miranu drag the dead Zidagar away, Carnotaur sits down.
"What was THAT all about?!" Buba asks.
"Phase Beamer technology. The Zidagar want to keep it a secret, however, I've figured out how they make them. I have all the components I need, but I don't have the Purple River Eels that actually make them work. That's why I needed you. Although my Voinian Cruiser, the Red October, is fast, it's not fast enough. And besides, I needed an experienced smuggler to transport some, a thing that I couldn't do. What I need you to do is take over 1,000 Purple River eels, about 5 tons of them, to Voinia. Once you get there, wait for me to arrive. Deal?"

In Spaceport Mission Computer...
Classified...
Wanted: Twelve experienced pilots with good ships, good enough to take on a UE Destroyer. Pay is 100,000 credits per pilot. All pilots who voulenteer meet in the Stror system. You will be given instructions there. No information leaks about this mission. Top secret.
--------------
In the Bakoom system, as four Aradas take of from the planet...
"Militia Squadron Leader, this is Red 3. I am detecting five large warships. Distance, 350,000 kilometers."
"Red 3, this is Squad Leader, approach vessels and investigate. Do not open fire unless targets are confirmed hostile."
"Roger Squadron Leader."
The four Aradas approached the three unknown vessels. Nearing them, the pilots could finally see what type of ship they were.
"Squadron Leader, this is Red 2, unidentified warships have been identified as five Crescent Warships. Do we open fire?"
"Negative Red 2. Investigate and confirm government affiliation."
"Roger Squadron leader."
A few minutes later...
"Squad Leader, this is Red 3, no crew aboard CWs. Government affiliation is militia. I have recieved an automated message from one of the warships. It says that they have been given to us and are for us to use as we please. Shall we board them?"
"Afirmitive Red 4, board ships immediately. This is certainly a bit of luck for us!"
**A few notes:
1. Please post additions a little larger than a few sentences. Try aiming at 1 to two paragraphs at least. Also, don't post many many many times during the course of a small amount of time (like a few hours). Make a long post and then wait awhile for others to make theirs, THEN post again. It is easier because since we have sooo many people it is annoying to read everyones post.
2. Captain, you basically controlled my character however thats alright since I was looking up info on you and your the one who knows you best :D**
Buba's Ship Info: Name: Dark Shadow Type: Miranu Gunship (outfited with more cargospace for a fast, versitile, blockade runner)
Continuation:
"Deal... Although I usually like a little more back information on my missions. I'm not THAT desperate for money to run into a job without knowing what I'm up against," said Buba rather bluntly.
Captain shook his head and added, "I'm sorry, I cannot give away any more information than that the Zidagars want our techonology. You shouldn't run into TOO much trouble. And with the ship you got it should be able to make it through the run alright."
"Alright... How much?" asked Buba.
"50,000 now..." said Carnotaur flipping Buba a credit-chip, "100,000 when you arrive at Voina with the cargo... intact!!"
"Of course it will be intact," said Buba cooly.
"Alright, the cargo will be loaded onto your ship in 2 hours."
"OK"
Carnotaur hoped for the best and departed the bar. Buba quickly finished his wretched Ale and looked at his portable mailer before heading out. One message appeared. It read:
:Classifieds:
For Hire: A seemingly innocent merchant to spy and smuggle cargo. Please send transmission to Node 534-896 for meeting coordinates.
Buba noted the transmission code and headed to his ship to make the call.
-----------
Buba entered the code (534-896) and waited for the connection. A small beep sounded letting Buba know it had worked. Soon a small holographic picture of an officer appeared on his screen.
"Yes?" the officer asked.
"I'm Bubaganoosh, I'm interested in a small message posted in Classifieds?"
The officer smiled, "Ahh yes..."

A message has been sent to Zacha Snake:
To Zacha Snake, After the Renegade fleet was essembled at the rock they have reconstructed a docking station. They are now constructing a spaceport bar. If they finish constructing this station again They will be a big threat to the miranu. I have worked my way up and have found out by the fleet leader that they are planning to attack New Mira, Then Mira! THye must be stoped as soon as possible. Onc e they attack Mira they plan to try and make an alliance with the human renegades so they can threat the entire galaxy!!! Your friend, the spy on the rock..... With news of this alliance Zacha snake goes to earth and tells them about the alliance and the attack on mira. The UE-Miranu-Zacha relationship has always been a trading relationship. He meets admiral Mcpherson at the Luna bar. Zacha Snake infomrs Mcpherson about the threat. Admiral Mcpherson affers 3 Ue cruisers for help and 7 large bombs that will be able to detroy the rock once and for all!!!
Then, suddenly, a beeping sound told Buba that he had recieved a communication. It was from Carnotaur, and read: "Buba, this comlink isn't secure so I will have to be fast. I'm altering the deal, you get 120,000 on arrival at Voinia. Why the sudden extra cash? Simple. Three Zidagar Zidaras are after you. However, my fleet cannot back you up nor can I hire anyone. However, I'll see if I can get my dad to send along a few Azdgari Aradas for protection against the Zidagar, but don't count on it. Over and out."
<INCOMING TRASMISSION> <Sorce: Voinia> <Target: The Wind Thief> <Encrypted>
Hello, I am Nova6, leader of the Voinain Empire. We have been fighting the UE for a long time, and no one seems to be winning. But with your help maybe it won't be so long. I have a mission for you, and I need you to accept. I need you, to assassinate a high ranking and respected UE general. More info later. Will you accept?
<END MESSAGE>
The lord of the New Azdgari Republic lands on Earth and meets with the government officials. Titan-"Welcome." Me-"Hello." Titan-"Tell me, where are you from? Of what people are you?" Me-"I am lord of the Azdgari, highest of the crescent races. I have a proposal for you." Titan-"I'm listening" Me-"I wish to form a military alliance. We can finally crush the lowly Zidagar once and for all!" I sit in waiting for a response.
------------------ Is the answer to this question 'no'?
Daedalus Arrives in the Riomor system and enters a meeting among all of the Pirate lords. Someone is already speaking... "...we must leave, there is no way we can beat this new government, we are now surrounded on all sides. None of us is strong enough to beat them." This is met with sullen nods of agreement. Then Daedalus stands, "You are wrong, I thought pirates would do anything to defeat an enemy. You should all be ashamed of yourselves for backing down so early. I have the answer, we must become a government. <crowd gasps> The only reason we can't win is because we are all separate and competing with eachother. If we unite we can win. Instead of raiding planets for resources, the planets will be ours and give us their resources. <excited murmurs> We have been pirates to long, let us become the Renegade Alliance, wealth and money for the strong!!" <huge applause, standing up> "Who is with me?" <All members rise, original speaker sulks in corner>
"Accumulate your fleets here, we will attack soon."
------------------ ---------------------- Give them shell! give them solid shot! Damn them, give them anything!
Revoked, Imthebest. You must make contact with Titan, who can then issue you United Earth vessels.
The Zodiac is flung from hyperspace, plasma burning from the engines. Rooster: "Zachit Station....this is Rooster of Corocijak.....help us!" The Zodiac's engines then burst, disabling the warship. Rooster knew Daedalus' people would be close behind and hoped the Zachit would tow him in.
------------------ It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.
Zacha Snake losing his patience begins the attack on the rock.. ------------------------------------- When his newly assembled fleet arrives at the rock surprisingly there were only 3 dozen cresent warships much less than expected. ---------------------------------------- Zacha snake and his fleet easily take care of the cresent warships now to search the rock for the right place to put the bombs. ------------------------------------------- He tells half of his fleet to go with him to New Mira ------------------------------------ Whne he gets there he sees what he xpected a whole lot of rengades the ships that he took with him consisted of Lazrias, Igazdrras, and Cresent Warships. -------------------------------------- The renegade fleet completley outnumbered them he orders his fleet to evacuate to the rock where the bomb has just been planted. -------------------------------------- The bomb would destroy every asteroid in the sector including the rock. ------------------------------------- Zacha Snake quickly takes his entire fleet to New Mira Now He has a chance. --------------------------------------. The SAE and SAD modules flickered all over the place smashing into ships. TheUE Cruiser took care of the Bigger Warships while the smaller ships took car of the lazria. The igazras made sure no renegade ships landed on New Mira. The cresent waships were taking care of the ships trying to hyperspace out. It was a long and hard battle. Zacha snake expects that to only be half of the fleet that the renegades had but the rock was destroye the Zacha were victorious this time..............
To Buba: Infiltrate the new government forming in the South Tip, find who the leaders are, do one of the following, set up a portion of their fleet into a trap, or assasinate leaders. Pay is 600,000 on completion. Will be increased for good work.
To Nova6: If it involves the UE, I accept. Is it Admiral McPherson you want destroyed?
But suddenly, just as Daedalus finishes his sentence, another Renegade officer runs up to him. He looks horrified. "What is it?" Daedalus asks.
"There's an Igazra class warship in orbit around Freeport right now! It has its guns trained on the station!"
As Daedalus and the other Renegades run off to defend Freeport, the station is suddenly shaken tremendously.
"A phase blast!" someone yells.
Then, a piece of paper is placed in Daedalus's hand by someone. Looking at it, Daedalus reads the paper. "Do NOT try to defend Freeport. If you attack us, we will destroy the station. We have cargo for you. Accept. Now. Or be destroyed. Go to Docking Bay 7A-C5 when you accept. - Subterfuge."
Considering his odds, Daedalus calls back the Renegade ships. Then, Daedalus goes to Docking Bay 7A-C5. As he watches, the Igazra launches an arada, which enters the docking bay and then lands. Daedalus then sees a group of cloaked figures unload 40 tons of cargo. Then, they leave, and the Igazra, called the Subterfuge, leaves.
Examing the cargo with a few other Renegades, Daedalus opens one. "NEUTRONS!" he exclaims.
"WHAT?!" another Renegade asks.
"Neutrons! Neutron Weaponry! Neutron blasters (hand gun), Neutron cannons, and even Neutron Turrets! Here's a note. It reads: 'These are for you. Use them wisely.' This is just what we needed! There's enough of these weapons for us to fit at least 3 of each one of them on each of our ships!" Daedalus replies.
"But aren't Neutrons to big for our ships?"
"These ones are miniaturized. I wonder who sent them..."
Buba sighs, "Alright, I better not get any heavy damage. I went through a lot of trouble to resalvage that ship and outfit it to the power ship that it is now."
"Quit your complaining Buba. Nothing bad will happen, I'm guessing your a good enough pilot to outwit those ships," Captain said, in a tone that hinted a bet.
Buba smiled, "Alright, see you on Voina."
"Hopefully, I might get caught up in some buisiness and not be able to make it."
Before Buba had time to reply the transmission was cut off. Buba finished readying his ship and head off to cash his credit chip. Finding that he had a large amount of money in the bank he withdrew enough to purchase a Cloaking Device*. He thought he might as well use it incase he ran into a lot of trouble.
*Cloaking Device - Although the United Earth constructed this wonder the secret quickly got out and other goverements were able to adapt it to their own ships.
Note to Daedulus: I contacted your code (request for a mercenary/smuggler). I will assume that your were busy at the time and I'll call back later. Or you can send me a transmission when you are ready.
Zacha Snake sends out half a dozen ships armed with tractor beamsand tow him to Zacha.
MODERATION: Imthebest, this is the second time i am reminding you that you have no access to UE ships. Please read all posts before making yours. Also, if you don't mind, lose the lines after every sentence. I'm assuming that you towed ME into Zachit Station as all you said was "him". Carnotaur, someone has to give you that (a player) in order for you to recieve it. Daedalus, remember The Rock is yours. Protect it if you wish. You do not have that many credits at your disposal, please lower it to 400K.
CONTINUATION: Rooster walks off his ship along with his crew. They are escorted into quarters while his ship is debreached and repaired.
Zacha Snake finds a disabled Azdgari Warship and captures it it is renamed Z.S.S Flaming Spear and is now Zacha Snakes new ship....
One of the crewmen on the bridge of the Storm spoke: "Thunder, one of the Militia scouts is reporting in. They report increased renegade activity, and the presence of Human renegade ships in and around Mavs."
"That's not unusual." Thunder replied. "Human and Crescent renegades squabble amongst one another all the time."
"Here's the strange part:" continued the crewman, "they appear to be co-existing... peacefully. What does it mean?"
"It could mean the renegade factions have called a ceasefire." Thunder mused. "And if that's true, we could be in trouble. They'll be able to pull forces away from their borders and focus them on our border. It seems like more than a coincidence that all this is happening just after the Kayan Alliance formed."
Getting on his comm unit, Thunder contacted the Militia headquarters on South Tip Station. They reported that they had confirmed the reports of unusual renegade activity and had also recieved a mysterious gift of 5 crescent warships from an unknown source. Thorough scans of the ships showed them in perfect condition, ready for battle. Also, they reported that 40% of the Militia ships had been retrofitted with pursuit missiles, and about 20% were being armed with defense pods. They also informed Thunder of unsubstantiated rumors of a visitor from the North Tip who could be involved with the renegade activity.
"If these rumors are true, then there may be something I can do. Let's keep our patrol strength up, and put out a general warning to the populace, just to be safe. And let's keep working to retrofit our ships with defense pods, if possible. Thunder out." Thunder said, closing the comm link to Militia Headquarters. With that he opened another comm link, this time on a highly encrypted frequency...
