Terra Border Station, Near Krala

Nonua System

Nils waited in the corridor which separated the the air lock of the dry dock of the Expedient from that of the station. He had order the Expedient up and ready ASAP and they had made it happen though they where trying to keep her power signature to a minimum to give them they best success of suppress for the escape. So far very few crew member had found their way to the Expedient. this worried him as to why but dwelling on that wouldn't help the situation. His Next order to the crew was to load what every and as much as they could into the Expedient. He had no idea if they would be able to out run the massing forces or if hiding was the better option. Food and water was the priority, ammunition being second and then anything they could get in her being last. In situations like this, useless junk could be turning into spare parts.

Sextus Nebula, Sextus System

When the door opened, Solomon stepped through entering the conference room. He quickly scanned the room to see that they were alone, no guards, no nothing. He turned back to the Fleet Captain and saluted the higher ranking officer. "Thank you sir," He said before taking an seat in the chain across from Jonas and he looked on pond the Fleet Captain. "Sir, before we start, I need to let you know that my crew has an lock on my lifesigns and if anything happened. They have orders to open fire and bug out. My crew is more to me than my own life and I will defend them from any and all threats. He sighed deeply before nodding "samehere Sir, With everything happening. That unknown station. The Empress now dead and Admiral of the Fleet Jacob Davis is leader of Alliance and we don't know anything or who were the ones that were to be in the coup." He spoke before rubbing his eyes some.

Onboard the Yorktown, Kendra was watching Solomon's lifesigns along with the rest of the bridge crew. The senors went off showing that the Vanguard's weapons were on standby and just picked up reading of an starship nearby before losting it. "Ma'ma, the Vanguard's weapons are on standby and they are using signal light to talk to an ship that I picked up for an second."

Lisa looked over to the Operation's officer thinking about what it could be it. Then it comes to her, "The Tezla" she turned to tactical, "put weapons on standby and have engines ready incase we need to move out. COM, sent an signal to the Tezla and tell them to stand down. We are talking to the Vanguard and will defend ourselves if we are attacked by any ship." she ordered as the light signal was sent to the Tezla at the sametime, the Cruiser's weapons were put on standby and the ship's engines were ready to go incase they need to pull away.

I.A.S. Vanguard, half a million kilometers from nebula edge
Sextus System

Jonas observed Captain Solomon as he entered the conference room. The Captain gave Jonas a salute before sitting down at the table. Saluting back, Captain Taylor also took a seat at the table before continuing. Before he could speak, Captain Solomon began with an opening statement about how his ship was prepared to open fire on the Vanguard if this meeting went south. Jonas would have done the same if his role was reversed. Solomon continued after taking a slight break, he went on about the death of the Empress and how Davis was now in complete control of the Imperium military. Both of these were news to Jonas, these events must have happened right before the Vanguard was declared a renegade.

"Davis... He's behind all of these. But why?" Jonas said out loud.

Reaching for a data stick that was on the table, Jonas inserted it into a reader and information displayed on the main display. It was some of the files that the Vanguard's marines recovered from the station.

"This is some data that were recovered from the hidden space station. I have only seen a small part of it, but I remember something about a Captain Jacob Davis being transferred to that station two months ago."

arrow Captain Tracy Hart
T.S.S. Enterprise - Leaving Krala
Nonua System

"Last fighter is onboard, hangar deck is secure." Commander Davidson reported.

"Helm, set course for Allotesh flank speed." Captain Hart ordered.

The Enterprise moved away from the battle zone and was now retreating to Allotesh where they would link up with a Terran fleet.

"Captain, I'm getting an energy buildup coming from the gate. Its activating." The chief operations officer reported.

Tracy activated a rear camera and put it up on the main display. The Jumpgate activated and hundreds of Vangar warships began to pour out. Their fleet had arrived.

"Sensors count seven hundred and ten ships, all of various classes. There is also a large group of carriers, mostly likely filled with troops." The operations officer reported.

"That's nearly a third of their fleet." Commander Davidson said.

Tracy went to a secondary screen and pulled up the fleet listing for Allotesh, up came only three hundred and five ships along with two stations and a dozen defense platforms.

"Communications, as soon as we clear Krala send a coded transmission to Allotesh fleet command and alert them to the size of the Vangar Fleet." Captain Hart ordered.

The Enterprise continued on her course for Allotesh and would arrive in under five hours.

William and his team of marines were almost to the docking hatch where the Expedient was docked. Two marines stepped around the corner and could see Commodore Wellington waiting for them. They waved for the Admiral to move forward and together they sprinted to the airlock.

"Commodore, I suggest we depart quickly. The Vangar fleet should be arriving any minute now." Admiral Taggert said.

arrow Cmdr. Vanessa H. Griffin
T.S.S. Entreprise
Near Krala


The last fighter Tracey spoke of, was none other than the red starfighter of Commander Vanessa H. Griffin, the insignia of the starfighters corps, who know was also one of the few pilots with combat experience on the corps, not that this will last long, considering the Vangar offensive on the works.

The fighter was still hovering on the Hangar bay as the Enterprise began leaving the sector, masterfully, the young blonde guided her fighter through the hangar towards the repair and maintenance section for fighters "They had to hit to the landing gear mechanism" Vanessa said pissed, she was in a DIRE need of a hot shower and some coffee "Yep" Deya replied watching the edges just to make sure they didn't scratch something, considering V was already in a foul mood because of the damage

Vanessa had already removed the helmet from her head, leaving it to rest on her lap as she maneuvered the heavy fighter around, following the staff instructions, finally they reached the section and with slow and steady hands she turned the fighter around, allowing the metallic claMps to get a hold of the hovering aircraft, once the staff gived the green, she turned off the RCS and opened the cockpit

"Well it wasn't that hard" she smiled while raising and stretching, showing off her curves "Now lets get some..." sparks bolted out of one of the clamps as it released the fighter, forcing Vanessa's back to the seat, butt first, legs up as the other clamp couldn't hold the weight, probably the fight damaged the clamp hydraulics, with a loud sound, the aircraft felt on the floor, but since the distance was short, nothing major happened

"For the record, that doesn't count as crash landing!" she yelled raising her hand and causing a general laugh "Now somebody get me out of here!"

arrow Commander Jordan Gideon
V.N.S. Concordia, entering Nonua System near Krala
Nonua System

The Concordia came through the Jumpgate along with the rest of the Vangar fleet. The carrier was surrounded by hundreds of other Vangar warships, some bigger like the Blackjack, others smaller like frigates and corvettes. Seven hundred and ten ships all appeared in the Nonua system, they were part of the massive Vangar offensive assembled to strike back at the Terrans.

"Jump complete, all systems at one hundred percent." The ships XO reported.

Commander Gideon was sitting in his chair, still uneasy with this whole plan to invade the Terran's with nearly all of their ships. The Vangar never had a large naval force, in fact they have the smallest navy out of the three factions. However, it was in ground combat that the Vangar's excelled in. Nearly all of the carriers that came with the fleet were fully loaded and ground troops, attack vehicles, mech units and various other ground combat forces.

With most of the Vangar fleet here in the Nonua system, the Unroua system was under the protection of the Imperium. Another thing that Commander Gideon found strange. The Imperium Alliance was never the one to openly make an alliance with another faction.

"Helm, maintain formation with the Commonwealth and her escorts. Operations, have all sensors begin constant scans at max range. Just in case the Terran's left some surprises out here." Jordan ordered.

For now, the Vangar fleet had no worries. The Terran outpost was quickly being overrun by the Blackjacks troops, and the remaining Terran vessel was fleeing.

Vangar Fleet Headquarters, high Orbit over Vangar Prime.
Urouna System

Zeric was in his office, his door was locked and the lights were dimmed. A few minutes ago, he got confirmation the fleet had entered the Nonua System and the attack was underway. For many in the Vangar military this was a joyful day, but for Admiral Cain it wasn't.

Ever since the attack on Vangar Prime, everything had changed. People were no longer acting the way they should, The Imperium were now their allies and the Terran's their enemy. Something was going on, and Zeric needed to find out what. Zeric was looking through every file he could get from the day of the Terran attack on the Magistrate. He was reading through thousands of files and pages of documents, security reports, login requests, everything. So far nothing looked out of place, there were a few unregistered guests but after some digging they all checked out.

Zeric moved on to the security footage, this would let him see every room within the Magistrates building. However as soon as he went to open it, it came up with a restricted access message.

"This doesn't make senses..." Admiral Cain whispered to himself.

He entered his access code and hit enter, again it flashed the message of restricted access. Admiral Cain had a level gold access code, which allowed him into just about any file he wanted. The only other person who could override this was the Magistrate and a select few on his staff. This just made his suspicions even worse.

Nike Thorsen
Terran Naval outpost
With his marines

Nike ordered his marine teams to secure the different areas of the station. As they did they engaged in firefights with remaining security forces and soldiers. "Status report. We need to secure the station ASAP." He said over comms. "We are moving slow but steady, toward the bridge of the station. We are taking out any resistance to move forward." The marine said over a secure line.

Naval outpost
Marine commander
Docking Bay

The Vangar marines were walking in to the bay when they saw the Terrans moving toward a hatch. "This is the Vangar Marines. Put down your weapons and surrender. If you do not comply we will open fire."" The commander said to the marines. "Surrender now and you will be treated honorably as prisoners of war." The moment was tense as the marines sized up the Terrans.

((Ecks I hope I am not doing too much here. Your turn.))

VNS Blackjack, Bridge level
Nonua System


Cassandra reached the hangar, the turbolift doors opened and her eyes opened wide as a blaze from the last bomb explosion rushed into the elevator, her armor shield went up just as the heat meters skyrocketed, with just a few seconds left Cassandra acted, in a swift move she jumped, her right feet landing in the elevator wall, using the wall as a support point she impulsed herself up, punching the Elevator's ventilation up, in the same movement, she got a hold of the ceiling and in a extraordinary feat of strenght she pulled herself up as the flames filled the elevator, her feet catching fire as she rolled on the elevator roof, now inside the shaft the flames went up but dispersed in the bigger room the elevator shaft offered.

Quickly she puts the fire off her feets and the armor suit cooling systems worked the extra mile to keep her safe from the intensified heat, without a word and once the fire was quell down, she raised and jumped down, returning in the elevator that was now charred on the inside and the doors jam, obviously this didn't help to improve her mood.

She took a couple of steps back and the ran the small space between the elevator wall and the slide doors, landing a mighty kick on the damaged door, placing it back on the its rail, after this, the elevator door made the usual sound to announce the lift arrival and the doors opened almost normally "That's better" she said, making her way into the hangar

"Teams, report!" she called on the comms, seen the hangar destruction and firefighters teams on their jobs

Cassandra looked around, spotting Mamba and Dom and quickly rushed to their aid "What's his condition?" she asked as soon as she reached them

Terra Border Station, Near Krala
Naval Outpost Aries
Nonua System

Nils jogged up to meet the solders quickly and relieve. When he was almost at the new voices asking for the vise admirals surrender came out of no where. He was close enough in proximity to hear but out of sight in the corridor from the speaker. He made a quick decision, with a quick sprint he was able to grab the vise admiral and pull him back wards while letting the pump action shot gun at hit hip loose on the enemy solders." Solders, retreat and provide covering fire." he shouted as he continued to push the vise admiral towards the Expedient while letting round after round off. Nils turned and kept pace behind the Vise Admiral. " I couldn't agree more in this situation vise admiral." He calmly spoke as he turned and jogged quick to the air lock of the Expedient. Pushing the vise admiral in the air lock, Nils turned to see that the little marine force that was left was getting killed but unfortunately for them, this wasn't Nils' priority, slamming the emergency close button and the heavy door of the air lock came slamming down and the heavy lock could be hear fixing the door in place, leaving the marines behind. Before decontamination and air pressure equalization processed, Nils hit the control panel which connected to the com. "Helm, the vise admiral has graced us with his presence, proceed with undocking and get us out of here with all hast. Commodore out." It was silent for a moment after the order was given as he didn't have time before the decontamination process began to get a confirmation but when a large mechanical thud and clicks where hear through the ship, it was apparent that the Expedient was freeing herself with all speed.

Once the decontamination process which seemed to take an agonizing amount of time was over it was clear that the Expedient was under her own power and heading for the exit. He Burst onto bridge, give quick orders before handing command over the the vise admiral as Nils had never been formally assigned captain and he was the ranking officer aboard the vessel. " Comm, raise the TSS Enterprise. Helm, be prepared for Maximum speed at a moments notice. Tactical I want all remaining power which isn't being used for the engines or to keep us alive on shield. You all have you orders, thank you." Nils stood to the left of the captains chair, not sitting in it. As he turned to the vise admiral " Vise admiral, if you would kindly." He gestured to him, taking the captains chair.

T.S.S. Jörmungandr
Near Krala

As his shipped near the orbital outpost a flood of information started to pour in. Communications kept relaying to him how Terran forces were beginning to pull out as the Vangar fleet began to warp into the system. The Jörmungandr went on high alert as people went to their stations in preparation for battle. "Comms try to hail the enterprise and see who is still evacuating... Let them know we will be holding out until their are out of the combat AO." He said as he settled into his chair as he could see his men scrambling on the communications and trying figure out the casualties and who was still alive. He started to wonder if the Admiral was still alive and kicking. If he wasn't it wouldn't hurt him all that much... Hell it might even help him he thought. He began to order his fighters onto standby just in case they might need to start to run escort duty for shuttles to dock on his ship. His communication officers began to put out the message that the T.S.S. Jörmungandr was going to start accepting Refugees from other divisions that were trying to evacuate.
