"Wait... I think I know the source of this evil... This isn't any pizza... it's from the cafeteria..." Jad said with mock dread, "seriously, though, what kind of idiot designs a ship like that? there's no aesthetics to it at all, plus the bridge is obviously that tiny tower on the back near the engines. Had I a warship, I'd shoot that thing off first... Plus, look at the domes on it... external shielding units?! What is this? a museum piece?"

Nina looked around. "Where's that kid... um, Matt? Someone send out a message... Before either or us attack, we need to determine if they're hostile."

((On cue.))
Matt was sleeping on a couch when somebody sent a message over the PR system. "Matt, get your butt to the bridge before we send you to the cafeteria to do some cleaning there!"
Matt was at the bridge very promptly.
Aerclayr flipped a few switches, then engaged autopilot. He hit another button, and his man-sized cockpit slid back into the interior of the small, scratched cruiser.
The interior lighting dimmed as he fell into a state of sensory deprivation. Much better than cryosleep, in his opinion.
His wrist pad started beeping, and crypted text ran across the screen. Something about his RFID tag... but everything faded away, into darkness....

Jad mused out the window, gazing at the grey ship. "Well, I got nothing. Bets anyone? tickets: hundred if it's a friendly, five if it's hostile! Place your bets! Winners get cash divided evenly!" Jad called, walking down the halls.

"It's about time you started doing some actual work around here, intern..." Nina adjusted her earpiece as she spoke to Matt. "Send out a message to the large ship. It needs to be short, and straight to the point without leaving room for loop holes that the enemy can use against us. All I need to know from them is whether they are friendly or hostile."
Then she looked down at Steve. "I need you to fixate our coordinates on Demeter X. If this ship is hostile and engages in war, we may have to retreat to a safety planet." The Atlantis had an impressive weaponry system, but the opposing ship was huge. Although it was ancient, it still might have power shields or superior weapons.

"i bet it is hostile...and belongs to someone with a big ego. or a small..." somthing caught kryxels eye on the spaceship
"can you trace that marking?" he said pointing to the empire symbol on the bridge.

Rosa examined the insignia on the other ship, but no records found in her database. "No matches found. Its likely a top secret military model or something...or possibly an independent organization such as Axion." Rosa explained to Kryxel.

Matt nodded slowly. "Sure, I guess. Better than being... cabin boy."
The cabin boy walked to the communications console and began fiddling with it. Glancing at Steve sidelong, he asked, half-jokingly, "And this thing works now, right?"
He slowly keyed in a simple message: short, straight to the point, and without... 'loopholes'.
This is the Atlantis. Your nationality is unknown to us, and your ship appears to be following us. Please relay your intentions to us.
The translator also set two other common dialects to be looped after the first message.
((Umm... hope this is what you meant? O_o))

Steve snickered. "I just hope we don't get a reply filled with nothing but spam again."

(( xd Galactic Spam! *imagines a can of Spam floating around in space, eating anyone who comes near it* O_o oh great, you guys set off my crazy imagination again...  ))
Vexis left the crime-infested bar happily, her pocket freshly filled with the cash she earned for killing. "Ah, yes. Gotta love all these vengeful psychos!" Vexis told herself, just before noticing something pinned to the wall. She grabbed the piece of paper, examining it closely -another bounty hunt! "Hmm...so someone wants these two people dead, huh? Lesse here...Layla Wakemen and...uhhh...
Dahhmeeahn Raid...?" she said, badly mispronouncing the name 'Damien'. "This looks uber easy, just two researchers? Pfft, I've taken down some of the highest ranked fighters in this side of the galaxy! This will be a piece of cake, the only hassle will be tracking them down..." Vexis looked around for the person that might have left this info sheet behind. 'This, could take a while...'

(that's one heck of a Job... damien's under Jad's employ, so the treasure hunter's liable to protect Damien with whatever he can muster... and he can muster a lot...
and Layla has an army of Myna units...)
Jad grinned, "that thing is like a freaking tin can! I bet it's mostly metal too... or plastic..." Jad started cracking up then, "Plastic! heheh... Imagine a plastic spaceship!"
(how long is the Atlantis? a star destroyer is over a mile long... but this ship is the biggest ship Luminus built, so its... how long?)
---
Len looked hard at Damien, "You realize that there is something we're on the verge of completely uncovering that could do wondrous things?!"
Shin burst into the room with the briefcase, "Damien! Jad say to fix his robot... whatever that means, and he also wants you to have this... hang on..." Shina scooped out a large amount of credits, "You get the other half."
---
Far below Sentinel Station, a dim light came on on the bridge of the Ascendant Dragon.
---
DAI suddenly detected a surge of power from an unknown and unlinked network.
"Dr. Jeremy! There is a spike of power below the facility!"
"How powerful, DAI?"
"You could run the Empire's capital planet for about the next 300 years on the levels detected..."
"And it's below us?! but the only thing below us is... That ship! Wait... who did MAI not kill?"
"Alias is... Kaito."
"KAITO?! Of all the people she killed, Kaito didn't die?!"
"I like Kaito... he's nice to me..." Miku said quietly.
