For Several years, the Zoir Pirates had been Terrorizing the Space lanes of the Galaxy, often in Areas forcing merchant Starships into Convoys guarded by warships if not whole fleets. In spite of the Efferts of the Great and major space powers to hunt them down and put an end to their reign of terror. However nobody could find their homeworld. However the Zoir Warlords soon grew over confinent and began to plan several Planetary raids across the Galaxy, further more one of the Warlords got the idea to kidnap the Queen of Tordor and hold her for ransom. Would this over confidence spell their end, only time would tell for even now fleets from the various powers was hunting and searching across the galaxy for the Pirates homebase and it was only a matter of time for it to be found.

Grand Marshal Borl was cursing up a storm in his office in the Teritoran Space Police Headquarters. Where in name of all the saints in heaven was the acursed Zoir Pirate's Home Base. Whole Fleets from Teritoran Space Police and the Teritoran Space forces and the fleets of many and ship of many space powers had searching for it and nobody seemed to be able to find it and the bloody Pirates were runing rough shod over the Galaxic space lanes on the scale unheard of in years even worse than the last time the Zoir Pirates struck large scale. He did know one thing, when the Zoir Pirate homebase found, There would be a long line of people waiting to attack it. Nothing do to but sit and wait for either the pirates to make an mistake and give the location of their homebase away or hope that it would found by one of the Fleets searching for it.

The Socialist Republic has heard of the recent actions of the Zoir pirates in regards to the nation of Teritora, our long-time ally. We would like to offer our assistance to our allies in finding and recovering their kidnapped leader. Please inform us of how we can help and we will do all that we can.

OOC:One of the warlords got the idea to kidnap the Queen of Tordor, Queen Seria not Teritora which is ruled by King Doran. Xanthal.

IC:Queen Seria stared from an veiw port of her Personal space cruiser as it speed towards her to home when the Alarm went off and the captian was heard over the intercom reporting that Several Zoir Pirate ships were heading towards the Cruiser and that all interselar communation seemed to be jammed. He said that he would attempt to out run the pirates or fight his way out. She stared and watched as the battlesheild came down over the veiw port and went to sit down.

OOC: Eh-heh.... Oops.

Zoir.I wouldn't suggest targeting any Traileric vessels.I can assure your our,Star Armada outclasses yours by far.

Emperor Gernx: I would assume you are are talking about the Zoir Pirates who wouldn't listen to any theats you would make anyway. They attacked Space lanes of countries far more powerful than you and got away with it. They've only been terrorizing the space lanes across the Galaxy for the last 6 years and its only the third time that they done so and raided the Sol system many times. Because I know you were not talking to the Imperum Lord Admiral Gero, as one we do not commit Piracy and two You would hardly I think out match an Imperal Fleet. But enough of that, we have pirates hunt and I will not waste my time on some upstart human.

Else where, the sleek fast warships of the Warlord Borix approached Queen Serias Cruiser and opened fire, aiming to disable the ship, they had strict orders to capture the Queen unharmed.

Around the Pirate homeworld, 9 Warlords and their fleets prepared for an massive raid against three planets, the first target was Allos in Atlantian Outcasts, another was an tiny, remote, Teritoran mining Colony near Xanthalian space and the finally Target was an Remote new Tordoran trade colony. The Warlords had planned this well and if all went well the target would never know they were coming intil it was to late and they would be gone before anyone could come to the any of the targets' aid. There was risk but it would be worth it if they suceeded.

If the Imperum wanted to attack one of your ships, it would be destroyed. Human Serf. However I refuse to trade insults with an fool when I could be hunting down the pirates. Bloody Warlords I'll have their heads yet.

~Emperor Gernx of the Ancient Zoir Imperum

OOC:o.o..I..thought that my leader was conversing pleasently with one of the Warlords?..

Allos was mostly unprotected. Normaly the 3rd fleet would have been protecting the planets, but since they where being lended to another Nation.....
The Outpost orbiting the planet was full of traders, wanderers, AO solders, and others. None knew what was about to them

OOC:Nope, he sort of just insulted repeatly the Zoir Emperor.

OOC:Nope, he sort of just insulted repeatly the Zoir Emperor.

OOC:I havn't been keeping up with the random invasion typedy things of Zoir pirates...

Human Serf.

OOC: Ouch

Allos was mostly unprotected. Normaly the 3rd fleet would have been protecting the planets, but since they where being lended to another Nation.....
The Outpost orbiting the planet was full of traders, wanderers, AO solders, and others. None knew what was about to them

The Zoir Warlord Fleets came without warning, decloaking and attacked all the communation arrays they could find while attempting to jam all communation. After this was done and they eliminated any defenses They would set out to plunder everything they could find in the system that would valable and to hunt down and kill or capture the local inhabance to sell as slaves later. Else where, other fleets headed for the other two targets.

As the 1st weapons hit the Base, many of the people went to thir own ships, to
1. Escape or
2. Fight the invaders.
Thse who stayed where obliterated, while a many of those who tried to escape where also annialated. Only a few ships managed to jump to Cirrus, the home planet.

The Teritoran Mining colony was not well defended, it was rather small having an population of less than 5,000 it was defended only by an dozen Star fighters, an two defend cannons. If it wasn't for the fact that the valuable Metal Gerexi was mined there nobody would live there.

The Tordoran Colony was an small colony with a single city of 20,000. above an single Patrol ship was in orbit and there was 20 grounded Star fighters. This was after all while not a major space hub still located on a small but valuable trade route but it was also remote and nobody expected that anyone would ever attack it.

After figuring the amount of time they would have before any AO ships came to Allos. Therefore the Warlords set out to take everything of value in the Allos system and try to get out before an AO Fleet showed up.

At the Teritoran Colony, another band of Warlords struck, seeking to quickly overwelm the defenses and plunder the colony and third band of warlords struck at the Tordoran colony this two weren't out for anything but plunder and out to kill everyone at the colonies to leave no witnesses. This two colonies were valuable, one would surely have valuable trade goods, and the other well the metal Gerexi was extremely valuable for ship building and other uses. This goods would raise their status among their fellow warlords and the money earned from saling them on the Galaxy black market would worth any risk involed.

On board the Flagship, the Olympia, protecting Cirrus:

"Sir, I'm reading unidentifid signitures jumping in"
Commander Vega walked over the the computer where a Lt. was sitting.
"How many?"
"6. 3 of them Scarab shuttles, another one is a mining vessle, and I'm also reading a private Xanthal vessel, and a private Zoir vessel" The lt. paused
"We are being hailed"

****************************************************
Later:

the 2nd and 4th fleets where ready. both would be sent to Allos to drive off the invaders. The 1st and 5th Fleets would remain where they where, just in case other systems where attacked. The 3rd fleet was currently being lent to another nation.

Both fleets jumped on the signal, cloaked, and headed for the Zoir ships......

The mining colonies defenses was quickly overwelmed however the colony officals manged to send out several distress probes with messages telling of the attack and the idenity of the attackers and the location of the colony.

The Patrol ship was conducting retine repairs, they never knew what hit them and the colony below was unable to put up a long struggle before the inhabitants were killed by the Zoir Priates. They never got an chance to get out an distress probe or even an distress signal. It would fall to the next Tordoran Patrol or an tradeship coming to the colony to find out it was destoryed and plundered.

At all three attacked planets the Zoir pirates continued to plunder while in deep space on route to the Tordoran Systems, An fast cruiser, two light destroyers and 5 Fast Frigates continued to give chase and try to capture the Royal Cruiser with Queen Seria of Tordor aboard.

In the Zoir imperum, Emperor Gernx was directing the Zoir hunt for the Pirating warlords. The Emperor to put mildly, was enraged but he didn't show it, that was one of the things that made him so dangerious, he never showed his anger or rage but always keep an cool head. Right now however he felt like disbowling somebody. Where in the 13 freezing hells was the Warlords' homebase. he sighed and continued to direct the Zoir efferts, he could get mad later, when he got his hands on the warlords.

"Sir, we're about to exit the jump node"
Commander Vega sighed.
"Leaving jump node now"
The fleet entered Allos space, just in front of the Zoir ships.
"Decloke, engadge Ablative armor, and open fire!" ordered Commander Vega

The Three Warlord fleets attacking Allos were caught by surpise with their shields down and nearly an third of the small light warships were destroyed or disabled before the rest got their shields up and another third of the ships were serverly damaged and the Pirates began to make an break for it as they tried to find a clear paith to make an jump into subspace. They didn't even bother to try to pick up their landing forces as they tried to flee. Else where the raiders at the other two planets left to return to the home base.

"Sir, the enemy forces are retreating!"
Vega smiled. "Casualties on our side?"
"we lost a few fighters, a few Destroyers got damaged, but that's about it. We cought them compleatly off-guard. Hell, they left thir ground forces on the planet."
Vega's smile grew wider. "Let's "give them a lift""

The remainder of the Allos raiding fleet fled leaving, an trail of particles that was unique to Zoirwarlord ships, normally their wasn't enough to track over long distances of space, an solar system yes but not farther, howver many of the ships were badly damaged and the ships were leaving an heavy and easy to follow trail. Meanwhile on the ground. The Zoir raiders surrendered without much of an fight.

"sir, we've picked up their warp signatures"
"Lock the heading in our computer. Send out a wing of fighters cloaked."
"Yes sir"

Minutes later, 3 fighters jumped in the gneral direction of the Zoir ships, cloaked.

Hurling through, subspace via their Gerastic drives, the fleeing ships headed for their home base, apon arrival, They entered orbitl above the dead planet in the void of space that acted as the Pirate base. Hundreds of Light Destroyers, Fast frigates and Corvettes could be seen from various warlord Fleets and even more star fighters. In all there was the combined forces of 20 warlord Fleets in around the planet. 6 fleets arivaled at full strength into the system, the forces that raided the Tordoran and the Teritoran Planetary colonies. In all it showed that the pirate base would not be easy nut to crack, there wasn't any cruisers or more power ships but that was made up for in numbers.

Alpha 1: holy shit
Alpha 2: you can say that agian.
Alpha 3: Let's head back. There's no way just 2 Atlantian fleets can take on this.
Alpha 1: Agreed. Inform Commander Vega.

The 3 Ships immediatly jumped back into AO space.

None of the warlord ships noticed the breif flare on their scanners, jumps to and from the system were always taking place. Instead the warlords put their efferts to spilting their loot stolen from ships, convoys, and the Planetary raids among them selves. As they figured it, there was little chance the Zoir Emperor would find out where they were, nor would the Teritorans, Tordorans and many others who hunting them so unless one find out and gathered their enemies they would likely be safe after all, nobody had been able to find this base the last three times their lanched Galaxic wide raids.

"Your sure it's a base?" asked Vega, as he walked down the hallway.
"Yes, I recommend you report this to the high council at once." said Alpha one.
"Of coarse"

Emperor Gernx read the report of other nations looking for the pirating warlords. "Hmm, so the Tordorans, the Teritorans, AO, the Silver Turtle..." the list went on and on. He spoke out loud. "Well if somebody does find their base, there be no lack of forces to take it out." He sat back and waited for the good news that somebody found the warlords homebase. His daughter was lucky, she didn't have all this paperwork, no she was off with one of the Imperal ships somewhere in AO learning more about the AO people when she wasn't hanging out with her AO friend that she had made, Commander Vega. He chuckled, to be young and free again.

Senator Orion's eyes where solumn. "I'll notify the Zoir Emporer at once. Good work, Vega. I'd promote you, except for the fact that you already control the entire armed forces"
Both of them Chuckled, before Orion turned off the comm link. He then contacted Gernx, knowing what good news he had.....

Emperor Gernx smiled broadly as he was contacted by Senator Orion. "My Orion my Atlantian friend, it is good to see you well. Its nice hear from you, my daughter hasn't caused too much trouble in your land I hope."

Emperor Gernx smiled broadly as he was contacted by Senator Orion. "My Orion my Atlantian friend, it is good to see you well. Its nice hear from you, my daughter hasn't caused too much trouble in your land I hope."

"No, not at all. But that's not why I am contacting you" Orion then proceded to send Gernx the fleet logs of the last hour.

Emperor Gernx grinned as he read the logs. "My so they finally goofed and given away the location of their base. So 29 fleets seen around it including the three that got mauled badly by your forces. So theres likely 10 to 11 fleets more out raiding the space lines."

"Yes. However, We are not going ahead just yet, as just 2 fleets would not do the job. We are gathering the majority of the Council's Fleet together for an attack."

OOC: I'm not counting the House's fleet's, as they are not under the Council's control

Emperor Gernx spoke. "Yes, of course, you know theres an lot of people out there that will want a peice of the Warlords, including the Imperum of course. Their Pirating, been going on an long time and they nailed an Tordoran trade colony and an Teritoran mining colony very recently. Wiped them out."
