Continuation of the story (no further sprites yet, sorry guys)
Date: 234 12 20
Location: Deep Space, Outside the Reine Nebula
"Sir, the main fleet has arrived" an officer stated, and from the looks, he was an higher up officer, possibly fleet commander, he was dressed in the standard officer uniform, an blue top jacket and shirt with dark blue pants, and near black, but still retaining some blue, shoes.
Ofcourse this wasen't the standard iniform for all officer, but for the more prominent commanders, this was.
"So the assault begins. Ready the detachment"
"Yes sir, and congratulations on your temporary promotion to Fleet Admiral"
Meanwhile, at the Tri-Thacyon outpost in the outskirts of the Reine nebula.
"Sir, we're having interference on our scanners, dosen't look like something major, tough."
"Keep running the testing, you know both the CEO and the board won't like it if we're behind schedule."
"Right, sir"-
The board had pressed the CEO to try out their newest scanners on some remote base, and he had chosen this base, because of it's particular remoteness.
And now it's particular remoteness was going to be it's fate.
"Ehm, sir? I don't think this is interference on the sensors."
"What do you mean, commander?"
"I think there is something out there"
"Don't be ridiculous, it's probably something with the new scanners, they're fresh off and bound to have bugs and errors."
"Maybe true, but how do you explain the very same thing showing up on our ordinary scanners aswell?
"You had those on? I thought ordered you tu turn them off?"
"Yes sir you did sir, but i had them on just in case"
"Sir, we've got incoming" the wepon officer suddenly screams
"What??"
"Multiple ships, on our scanners and our sonars, and boy they're big"
"Can you classify them?"
"I think sir, It looks atleast like there are 15 battleships, 23 cruisers, 35 destroyers and two carriers, and a big fighter assortment."
"Can we take them on?"
"No sir they'll just destroy us, but we can however, leave a rear guard to cover our retreat."
"Are you suggesting that we leave a battleship behind?"
"Not one, but two"
"Are you crazy?"
"Seems reasonable to me."
"We don't have much of a choices, do we?"
"Not much time either, sir."
"Right, Evacuate the base but leave the two paragons behind to cover our retreat."
"Yes sir"
And whilst the evacuation shuttels were leaving the two paragons were advancing upon the enemy fleet, tachyon lances blazing.
"They're not seriously thinking of sending those on us? They'll get slaughtered"
"Sir, we are taking some damage, and one of the carriers flight decks are completly destroyed, took a mean front from the tachyon lances and forgot to raise shields, and also they misjudge the firing distance of the enemy."
"Goddamnit, keep proceeding forward, push the flanks."
"Yes sir"
To be continued....
