Welcome to Gaia! ::

Deep space. For some, a vast field of endless scientific possibilities. For others, wilderness. A no man's land where rules and laws mean nothing. In galaxies, residents still have to abide by intergalactic laws, but in deep space, it's incredibly easy to get away with most crimes.

A giant carrier slowly drifts through the stars. The residents in the carrier, grotesque, to say the least. The carrier's population entirely of a strange, robotic cyborg race. Their anatomy mostly that of an insect. They had blaring red eyes that glowed in the darkness of the ship. In the room at the center of the ship, sat an individual, while very similar to the rest of the residents, was also very different as he was mostly larger and bulkier. It sat alone in the room, his throne mighty and intimidating.

The doors at the entrance of the room shooting open as a lowly grunt crawled in. "Master... I have good news to report." He said with a masked robotic voice.
"What is it?" the creature in the throne said, his voice significantly deeper.
"We've detected a small carrier ship launched from Zira. Our scanners detect that its cargo is a squadron of B.E.N.." the grunt replied.
"Hm? Wherever could it be headed?"
"To a planet called Tempmus, sir. The Zirans have recently befriended this planet and some have even migrated to it. We are only to assume that the B.E.N. are being sent there for the planet's protection."

With this news, the creature in the throne tapped a button on the arm of his throne, bringing up a large holographic map in front of him. He located Tempmus and tapped it, the ship turning course and flying off at light speed towards the destined planet.

"How are the B.E.N., Torom?" A familiar purple Ziran asked through his computer. A video chat was engaged and connected to the cargo ship full of B.E.N. that was headed to Tempmus.
"So far so good, Captain Manu! Just a few more moments and we'll be entering the atmosphere!" Torom replied.
"Good!" Manu said simply. His expression changed drastically, however, as a red light started flashing in the ship on the other end of the call.
"M-Manu! S-Something's happening! I think we're being--"
BOOM
"W-What's going... N-NO! NOT YOU!!! CAPTAIN MANU, HE--"
The transmission was then cut short as it was filled with static. Manu hooped out of his chair and ran over to the code red alert switch. Dex rushed into the lab, looking at Manu frantically. "W-What's wrong?! Why is the emergency alarm going off?!" he asked in a panic.
A large boom rang out over the entire planet of Tempmus as the massive carrier broke into the atmosphere and began its terrifying decent to the ground. All who were under the ship would soon be crushed if they did not run for their lives, but all outside the ship would not soon face a better fate.
This was an invasion, the enemy still unknown, but the violent intentions clear. May your fate be kind.

((The ship is descending on top of the ghettos))

Scare

Scare, having been woken up from the earth-shaking boom, shot up when Ares entered. He bolted out of the room in a hasty manner. Not wanting to leave Ares behind him, he grabbed her hand and ran faster whether she wanted his help or not.

Roy burst into Arial's room after the roaring boom sounded off, frantically waking her up. "Arial! Wake up, I say! We need to get out of here post haste! Quickly! Grab Shelly!" he shouted urgently.

****




Teddy's heart dropped when he heard the loud boom ring out in the sky. Without thinking, he looked out the window, seeing the giant alien carrier descending onto the planet. He quickly grabbed Sawyer out of bed before he had time to react and ran through the house to Ella's room, bursting in. "Ella!! We have to get out of here! Come on, quickly!!"

****



Ben was shook and awakened by a frantic-looking Manu after Tempmus shook with a boom. "Ben! Quickly! We have to get you into hiding! It is not safe to be out!! THEY are attacking!!" Manu quickly explained.
Pupils shrinking, Ben began running quickly the the lab where Manu had prepared a secret hidden shelter small enough for Ben only.
"Delta!!" Dex shouted, the droid hovering over to him quickly. "Secure the castle!! Make sure nobody gets in unless they are allies!!" he commanded. Delta nodded and began flying throughout the castle, blocking openings with thick, steel walls and keeping watch.
Manu waved his hand in front of the emblem on his headband, his trusted blaster appearing in his hand. With the most serious look he had ever had on this planet so far, he was ready for a fight that would be no doubt bloody.

As the roaring boom sounded off, Silverlight jumped in fear and curled up, frozen where she was standing. She yelped when she felt a hand on her back, but instantly felt relieved when she saw that it was Swift who had come to her aid. "Mom! There's... something coming! We need to get you to safety!" he said in slight fear.
"B-Brother!!" Donna called, running over to Swift in tears. She latched into Swift, Silverlight keeping her comforted as well. "W-What's going on?!" she asked.
The three felt warm wings wrap around them before Swift could answer. They all looked over to see the mighty Fenikkusu protecting them. "I fear we are being engaged in a battle that will most undoubtedly be bloody..."

Jaybomb banged his head on the monitor at the lab having felt the quake. "Ouch, ouch, ouch." He rubbed his head and gets off his chair. "What is going on?" Jaybomb then notices that the boom had cause the tank holding his brother to crack. "********, I got to get him out of there." He drain the tank and grabs Spyke and exits the lab. "DEX, Where are you?" He heads into the castle main area and notices Delta doing something. "Delta? What is he doing?" He then sighs. "I need to stop coming to the lab and staying in there for the night." He then looks over his shoulder looking at his brother who he is carrying. "I wish you would wake up, you idiot."

Roman dashed out of his house carrying his prize guitar. "Shelia run!!!" Roman hurries towards the castle where it is considered the safest while Shelia follows behind. Shelia looks back and sighs. "Geeez so much for a safe place."

((You do realize that a carrier crashing down to the planet would both be too fast for people to escape, and also cause a large enough explosion to destroy the entirety of the island Ceres is on... But hey, who needs physics and logic in a world like ours? More fun this way.))

Fenrir is startled awake by the amassing heat in the air around him and shaking of the ground beneath him. He took up residence in a small apartment in the ghettos where he would be mostly left alone. And if he lost control, atleast most of his victims would not be missed. But of course, something has to come along and ruin everything... This time? A giant ******** ship crashing down on his head. "Well ******** me sideways..." He stands and stretches, deciding to help others less fortunate out of here, instead of saving his own skin. He could leave at the last second form this very spot, about as close to the impact point as you could conveniently get, and still be fine. Shadow Travel allowed that. So, off he goes in search of slow individuals, or those unable to leave. Elderly, sick, young, weak, whoever he crossed shadows with, he would absorb into the blackness and deposit somewhere in the kingdom proper, away from the impact zone.

Grim stands atop the hangar, watching as the clouds tear apart to reveal a massive ship descending upon the planet. If it weren't so close, he would be out there helping. But there is no way he could reach them in time. So many people would die today, just off that explosion alone.





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Both rivals stood next to each other, giving up their bickering for a few moments as they saw the ship coming down. "What's going on?" "Don't know. But whatever it is, it's not good." The two were stunned into awe as they watched the ship descend. Neither moved a muscle.

((I assume this is the latest RP, so Ammospam would be with you guys now.))

Ammospam sighs, standing atop his makeshift house made from sand. He wills the sand to collapse and take refuge against his body, reforming his protective skin of highly condensed sand. He had an odd feeling that a fight would be coming. A ship doesn't fall out of the sky like that under normal circumstances from what his studies told him.















((Would the Torrans know who this alien race is? And would they react immediately to an attack by them? Because if so, they could amass a force to come and assist us far faster than if we just ask. They would refuse to act until asked to assist.))

((Justin: Probably not, seeing as the entire race has been unprecedented in the Species of Tempus thread))

Gareth jolted up with the sound and feel of the carrier colliding with Tempus. He was a few major idlands away from the place, but he still felt the shock. He quickly got off the old, torn couch that he had been resting on, walked across the rotting, dusty wood floors, and walked out of the crumbling shack he was now residing in. He had a difficulty standing up, let alone walking, and decided not to risk isle jumping until after the earthquakes stopped.

Awoken by screaming, Frost scrambled out of bed, only to trip on her sheets and land flat on her muzzle. Moments later her children rushed in, latching onto her and wailing. Angel hovered over them, soothing them with soft words and a calm aura.

Picking up on the distress signal sent from the lab, Techa zoomed over, bursting through the door. "W-What's going on?!"

Haven was walking through town at the moment the impact occured, and jumped 10 feet into the air, screeching and ducking for cover when she heard the loud boom.
