Yoshiteru recieves the message.
Yoshiteru: "I took the precaution to not send an armed ship but rather a small cargo ship modulated into a scout ship, if they see its shape they will make out that its not fight worthy, there will be nothing to be startled over.

Though what would worry me is the combined appearance of some many races, if this is there first contact with alien life forms, they have received more than would be appropriate at one time."

The ship moving in on one of the population centers begins to sound alarms warning of radar locks. The fast paced warning blips turn to a continuous lock-on alert as two local SAM sites fire intercept missiles.

The missiles eject from their tubular launchers and engage boosters. There are two distinct cracks over the skies as the missiles are propelled at speeds exceeding mach 5. The only explanation for a quick lock being the ship entered an overlapping radar net.

The encrypted communications that are being sent by the inhabitants of the planet continue bouncing around. Bits and pieces of communications leak and show data "bread crumbs" that are the ship to ship conversations and information sent to them by the Soter Republic. If at all possible, one would be able to tell they have been listening via their satellite dishes. If the people of the planet understand and can successfully translate the messages can only be told by time. For now, the invasion of airspace is addressed aggressively.

CAPTAIN FIAR

Upon being fire at by the missiles, two fighters would go down. One blowing up violently in the air, raining small debris on the city. The other fighter however survives the hit, and makes an abrupt crash landing in one of the cities. The pilot nearly dies in the crash, he is unconscious and severely wounded and is stuck inside the cockpit of the now burning fighter.

The shuttle and two remaining fighters quickly go back into space, heading back for their respective cruisers.

"We've encountered hostile reactions to entering their airspace. They have surface-to-air missile systems which are capable of shooting down our fighters and shuttles."

Captain Fiar would purse his lips beneath his hood, looking down on the planet from space as the fighters and shuttle approach. "Very well...allow me to evaluate our options."

The Amundi ships would send what they have discovered to the Zaedrax ships in encrypted messages.

A few more Zaedrax fighters emerge from the cruiser, and approach planetside.
Flares attempt to dispose of the missiles, as well as their energy projectors. A few are hit, but suffer minimal damage.

Two fighters would approach the crash-site of the Amundish fighter, and two armed Zaedrax pilots would emerge and attempt to engage in rescue operations.

The Admiral continues to monitor the situation. The ship, RSS Mercy, continues sending the same message with the dictionary and phrase book.

The Admiral hails the Nichi, Zaedrax and Amundi ships.

Quote :: I would recommend pulling back from the planet immediately, the inhabitants have shown they don't appreciate foreign ships entering their atmosphere. Your forces should pull back before this escalates any further.

The Soter scouting fleet begins scanning the space around the planet including its moon for information, objects out of the ordinary and any transmissions from the planet in attempts to understand the language and culture as well as defenses.

"I am the Law" Posts : 406 Join date : 2012-02-04

There are no above ground military bases to find, the Nichi are unsuccessful.

The deployed flares against the SAM sites is completely ineffective for their method of tracking. The incredibly fast missiles slam into the fighters as they get locks. Attempting to fire at them is comparable to hitting a baseball flying at you with another baseball.

Entering the close proximity to the city engages the city air defense guns. Multiple 35mm CIWS deploy on rooftops, unfolding from metal storage units. They engage targets with twin rapid-fire automatic cannons.

Any craft that manages to make it to the crash site would notice the blinking street level cameras. There is a rumbling that seems to be coming down one of the adjacent streets.

Above in space, one of the satellites transmits a message out in reply to the Soter.

The majority of the fighters would be thrown off course while emergency thrusters attempt to launch them back into space immediately.

The rescuing Zaedrax would disregard the sound. The nine feet tall armored creatures would attempt to pry the damaged vessel's cockpit open, and rescue the Amundi pilot.

From orbit, The ZTN Infinity responds to the Republic of Soter:

"We are attempting to pull out, however the downed Amundish vessel requires our attention and rescue. We would hope to not stir too much more agression from this young nation, but we must rescue our ally."

The ZTN Wonder would send a message in all known Zaedrax dialects, as well as in Swedish, UCUS Binary, Templese, Amundish, Zaedrax - Amundi - Imperri Binary, and in standard League of Stars format as well as sending the dictionaries for each dialect:

Upon noticing no military installation and witnessing the distant Surface to Air defense systems by the cities,
The lone Scout ship heads course back to orbit and docks in Capital ship.

The Nichi Capital ship creates a blue fissure and goes into it and the fissure closes.

The Admiral reads the message and sends back his reply to the satellite

Quote :: I am Admiral Ajax of the Republic of Soter, the "invaders" are attempting to recover their pilots in the most aggressive fashion possible. We are the Republic of Soter, have not invaded your airspace and are currently holding position roughly by your moon. We are requesting permission to land and speak with your leaders.

The Admiral sends the message and pulls his fleet back toward the moon distancing himself from the other nations.

CAPTAIN FIAR

Captain Fiar gets a message from Balashot Space Station and mutters something under his breath. "Set course for Balashot Space Station, we've got to be re-equipped."

Before the two Amundish cruisers depart, they get the co-ordinates of the planet and mark them down. They also let the Zaedrax ships nearby know they are leaving. They then turn, and after a short warm-up, warp back to their homeworld.

Receiving the Amundish message, a comm officer approaches Supreme Ambassador Verunas Nossa, alerting him of the actions of their allies.
Verunas thinks deeply upon it before ordering a meeting within the Infinity's chambers.

Supreme Ambassador Verunas Nossa, Security Commander Ihlanna Nossa, Naval Intelligence and head of Science and Research Abado Fuusa, Honor Guard Zielmot Bodir, and Admiral of the ZTN Kedoma Svir enter the chamber.

Kedoma is the first to speak:
"The Juveniles are making it out for us to be the villains, with 'Aggressive' behavior. It is as if they wish to pit us against themselves, or even this lesser nation."

Ihlanna responds back:
"Perhaps, but why would they? With a flick of a wrist either could be out of our hair so to speak. Of course, that is not the will of the Tetrabune, and should not be out approach. Perhaps this is time to field the next generation?"

Abado is quick to intercept:
"Are you mad? Testing with all sources have proven catastrophic! Unless it is our intention to displace an entire city, that should not be our approach. Our military defense as it is could easily hold off this nation's weapons."

Verunas calmly provides his input:
"We are in no position to leave at this point. The Federation may have decided to do so, and leave their own men behind, but we will not leave an ally behind. I say we hold and..."

Zielmot Bodir approaches Verunas, whispering something into his ear before returning to his position.

Verunas sits quietly for a second before speaking:
"Disregard my previous message. We will depart the system. Rescue operations will continue, and the Wonder will be tasked with remaining here. She is a scientific vessel, our least 'aggressive' ship. Her hangars will be able to sustain the fighters and Amundi when they return. Admiral Svir, order the fleet to engage slipspace drives and exit the system. We will wait for the Federation's response."

The group disperses, and the commands and messages are relayed. All ships besides the ZTN Wonder open up slipspace portals and exit the system.

The Wonder then continues to relay the message previously sent by the Infinity, urging the new nation for peace.

Groundside, the rescue operation continues.

"I am the Law" Posts : 406 Join date : 2012-02-04

The rumbling ends as two multiped tanks surround the rescue operation. Coming around the street corners to block off an escape route, the two ambushing tanks roll to a hard stop on their wheels before the wheels retract onto their walker legs on either end of the street. Their front extended appendages seem to have internal weapons that are already spooled and ready to fire on the Zaedrax walkers. A small hatch on the top of the vehicles pops open, a javelin style missile is locked on target.

The tanks do not open fire, despite having the element of surprise on the invaders. Their arm guns continue to spool, locked in on their targets.

A message is returned...

The ZTN Wonder would listen to the ongoing situation from the safety of orbit, attempting to figure out the proper course of action.

===

The two Zaedrax would be completely surprised by the sudden show of force. The Zaedrax would slowly lower the Amundish fighter's window on the floor as they pull the near-death Amundi out of the fighter. Both Zaedrax engage a small button on their weapons and drop them. The Amundi is carried by one Zaedrax, who can easily hold the ally in his arms. All the while, the second Zaedrax approaches all of the fighter vessels, pressing in three different commands on his arm-mounted computer As well as commands, he slides a small capsule into each vessel.
He would then turn to one of the tanks and swipe in a message on his computer before it is submitted in a format identical to the one received.

Code:: ::> Interpretted agression is false
::> We were rash
::> Jumped the gun, and now regret it
::> We are now unarmed
::> Accept our humility
::> Accept our apology
::> We have not fired any weapons
::> And we will not
::> We mean only peace
::> And peace, we shall stand by

As the Zaedrax sends the messages, the Amundish and Zaedrax vessels begin to fall apart piece by piece. Parts chip away, and the ships slowly become increasingly fine until they are merely piles of junk metal, no machinery or electronics intact. The Zaedrax weapons do the same.
The Zaedrax stand humbly, no weapons on their person, and the wounded Amundi lays in one of the Zaedrax's arms, grasping for any hope that he will make it out of this situation.

Monitoring the situation, the Admiral hails the Zaedrax ship

Quote :: Stand down, we will recover your men for you, the more you do the more you're pissing them off. We just received clearance to retrieve your men, we will handle this, I would like to avoid any bloodshed if possible.

The Admiral sends a message back to the satellite.

Quote :: Roger, we have received your message, we will retrieve the aggressors and make sure they depart the system immediately. We are launching a shuttle escorted by two fighters. The fighters will leave the ship before the atmosphere and maintain orbit in that location.

A fully armed squad of Rangers boards the drop ship accompanied by several medical personnel. The drop ship departs the RSS Mercy and heads toward the coordinates on the planet. The drop ship is accompanied by two fighters, who break off as soon as the ship enters the atmosphere and heads toward the downed craft.

Two Amundish cruisers warp near the ZTN Wonder.

"We have returned, our ships are equipped with new weaponry now." Captain Fiar says to the ZTN Wonder. "Update me on the situation."

The ships would sit still, one on either side of the ZTN Wonder, shields at full charge and weapons left unpowered.

With the arrival of the Amundi vessels, the Wonder would send over a log of all the events that took place, and quickly make them aware of the situation.

The Zaedrax holding the Amundi would attempt to aid him by using a first aid kit recovered from the wreck. The other Zaedrax pilot in front of the tank sends another message:

The Admiral sends a cold response,

Quote :: As you wish, just know their blood is on your hands. This isn't some little game you're playing, you have no right to administer tests like some B science fiction movie to judge if they're ready for the galaxy. The medical support I have en-route will be re-routed.

The Admiral sends a message to the satellite.

Quote :: The soldiers on the ground are called Zaedrax and Amundish, they have denied our attempts to pick their troops up, apparently they're trying to give you some galactic test to see if you're prepared for the galaxy. My units are currently on course to attempt to pick up their wounded and stranded, but I will not be able to get them to pull off in time, they will attempt to land within three minutes, but will attempt a hover pickup. Please take note of this, attached to this transmission are what they and their ship look like. I am attempting to abort the mission as we speak. If you would like me to divert them to meet with any of your command please notify me, if not then we will leave the system and upon the other ships leaving your planet, leave in peace.

The Admiral has a subordinate send the recall message to the ship, but it is sent slowly due to the distance and disturbance of the new planet, it will not make it in time to stop the ship's mission.

The ship continues its approach and slows to hover over the Zaedrax and Amundi.

The tank facing the Zaedrax pilots perks up. The tank on the opposite end of the street proceeds to hunch down before vaulting itself, with its legs, over to the next street.

Flashes of light pulse up the streets and reflect off the windows in the buildings. Windows nearby begin to shatter; they are blown out by the intense pressure built up in the confined area. The multiped tank facing the Zaedrax and the Amundi pilots lets loose a stream of 35mm gatling cannon fire. The APCR rounds shred apart any armor and pierce holes in any flesh in their immediate pathway. The runaway rounds skid down the street and leave earthworm like pathways in the street. The arms fan left to right as they spray the piles of metal and any standing bodies with bullets.

The cannons stop firing, the moisture in the air that contacts the exposed parts of the barrels vaporizes immediately, turning to steam. The spooling slowly comes to a halt as the mechanism in the arm loads a secondary belt of ammunition. A small port for water cooling vents steam out the side.

Two circular panels flip over, exposing the tank's ocular sensors. The scan around, searching the light spectrum for targets.

The drop ship hovers for a few seconds, but its more than long enough to witness the carnage below. The abort message comes through loud and clear, the recovery team is more than happy to oblige. The drop ship's engines rocket the craft upward toward the rendezvous position.

The images are transmitted from the craft to the Mercy. The Admiral grimaces at the scenes played before him. He sends a message to the Zaedrax and Amundi.

OOC: Um how exactly are you reading my transmissions? They're not being sent in your direction, they're directly being sent to the satellite and you've never mentioned cracking my transmissions or even attempting to intercept them as they weren't sent in your direction or to your ships.... So... How exactly are you hearing the transmissions not being sent to you?
