No OOC Rubbish, the only people that are allowed to post right now are Doomingsland, Chronosia, The Imperial Navy and Coreworlds. No one else until i say so. I have a plotline people!
The Empire Lusts for War
"Senators please calm yourselves, there is no need for all of this. I assure you, i will not let this Empire which has lasted for over a thousand years fall into the darkness. We are in new times, and new times demand new measures. The younger races are growing, they are breeding like livestock in a pen while we stagnate and watch. The Empire has hidden in the shadows for too long, it is time we come forth and take what is rightfully ours. I will tell you all now, that my plan is not without risk, there are many enemies, but they are weak powers, squabbling amongst themselves for the small scraps we neglected to consume. My plan is simple, we will begin expanding in the Northern rim. Hologram on." The centre of the room burst into life as a map of the Galaxy was formed. In the centre a vast hazy yellow covered all of the Coreworlds and innerrim even extending to the Galactic edge. "Here senators is the Empire in yellow," Thrawn motioned towards the map."We currently control over half the Galaxy, with many more vassal worlds that have semi independence. Our military is currently second to none in size, though it is ageing. Our enemies have begun corrupting our colonies with false dreams of freedom, that as you can understand is unacceptable."
"Grand Admiral, though your concern for the growth of the Empire is admirable, what guarantees do we have that the young ones will not ally and fight collectively against us. We cannot fight them all, not with rebellion creeping throughout the Empire, we need a large bulk of our forces just
to keep order, the Cult of Dethos is growing daily and the Sith are up to their tricks again, I believe our forces are better spent removing old enemies and not making new ones."
"Senator Deshi, of course, I understand your concern, I am sure that everyone else here shares it." Thrawn pointed to the room filled with nodding heads. "That is why our first offensive will take place upon old enemies, I am not a fool, we will crush those that are supporting the rebellion and the cult. Hologram phase two. Here senators highlighted in red is the enemy. They have been supporting the rebellion from the first war, one thousand years ago, and it is time that they are ended. a combined fleet spearheaded by Chronosia and Doomingsland will take them out and level their population. Meanwhile an Imperial fleet, excluding the Deathstar will head towards this target in the unknown regions." A small area lit up bright white. "This is our target, there defences are quaint but not to be underestimated. A force of one hundred and twenty one Imperial Star Destroyers will secure the area, the command ship will wait five Light minutes out just incase its needed."
"Admiral Thrawn, you do not have my support in this act of unfocused aggression. As elected senator of Courscant, I am using my dully appointed Veto to block this action. I will not have any undue act of war without necessary reason."
Thrawn turned, his red eyes narrowed into pinpoints. "Is the senator sure of her choice?"
"I am Admiral."
"Very well, but I will say now, I tried to act before we ourselves fell victim to outsiders, if we pay the price for your ineptitude, I will not be held responsible." Thrawn turned from the senate and walked out of the council chambers followed by a trail of his supporters. Leading the way Grand Admiral Thrawn spearheaded the walk down the Imperial corridor followed by the rest of the Grand Admirals.
"Well Thrawn what do we do now? We have made fools of ourselves in front of the senate and the Empire."
"Be silent and keep your tongue to yourself, this was all planned, we need the public to grow dissatisfied with the senate, and this is the only way to go about it. In one week from today an attack will happen on Coruscant iself by an alien force. They will hit, and target civilian structures, leaving the senate responsible for the massacre. The fleet will be within range to strike, rescuing the planet and throwing the senate deeper into public dissolution." Smiling Thrawn moved towards a hyper lift. As the doors opened he turned back. "Admirals, see to it that senator Deshi has an accident, we do not want her to rally more support, perhaps she will fall victim to the alien invaders hmmm?"
The doors closed leaving nine Admirals on their own, while Thrawn descended towards the former throne room. Admiral Velo stared at the closed doors in shock. "He wants us to kill a senator? This is not the old Republic, we are surely past the days of cloak and dagger?"
"You forget Velo, that Thrawn is from the days of the old Empire, he or should i say his clone formed our democracy centuries ago, he is far more capable than all of us."
"But still, this is high treason. If we are caught..."
"If we are caught what will happen, the military will detain us? HA! They support us not the senate, Thrawn has engineered their loyalties over years, they will not betray us for a bunch of politicians."
"But."
"But enough Velo, the discussion is over, now arrange for the senators demise as Thrawn ordered."
Velo turned with the look of conflict on his face "I will do as you ask, but only sorrow will come of this Vland, you and I know it." Turning to the other Admirals Velo nodded his head. "Good day Gentleman."
As Velo walked down the corridor eight pairs of eyes followed him. "We're going to have to remove him Vland, you know that don't you?"
With a heavy sigh Vland looked at his fellow officers. "I picked Velo for his morality, a trait that I find lacking in the Navy, sadly I now realise too late, that in the military morality has no place. Someone get rid of him... But make it quick, I don't want him to suffer, this war has
already destroyed his heart...."
The ships moved silently upon Coruscant; ancient, decadent ships that scarcely even resembled Imperium vessels anymore; wordless terrors moving through the void of space like ravenous sharks, advancing upon their prey. Aboard were countless Imperial guard, dressed in strange, alien uniforms; acknowledging that for this time, they must be subtle as knives, as they slid towards their objective. The vessels paused; hovering above the orb of the world; before weapons glimmered and shone; and the bombardment began; waves of flaming death descending through the atmosphere as the first bombard cannons roared in thermonuclear fury...
Small fighters began to descend; weapons blaring in a lightshow cavalcade of carnage; dropships screamed through the atmosphere, Imperial Guardsmen in their strange garb within; clutching their weapons and preparing...Preparing for this strange illusion of war; this danse macabre that they now partook in.
Thrawn stood on the command ships bridge eagerly waiting for the first attack wave. Turning to eight Admirals that flanked him he raised his fists and clenched them. "Today, we make history, no longer will the Empire be ruled by the decadent senate and their foolish and time consuming "Democracy." A new order will rise, and with it the Galaxy will burn. In the ashes the Empire will grow, flourish as it done a millennia ago. But for the greater good sacrifices must be made."
"Admiral the enemy fleet has just dropped out of Hyperspace. Coruscant is minimally defended."
Thrawn turned towards the command pit. "Begin phase two, shut down all sensor and power relays."
"Shut down commencing Admiral."
Coruscant
As the enemy fleet emerged from hyperspace, the planetary shield was raised almost instantly. After a small lull, defending fire erupted form the surface towards the enemy force. As the defenders took to their stations the planet descended into darkness. Power grids began to fail, as bombs detonated critical locations. Communications and sensor networks collapsed rendering the planetery weapons useless, and with the fleet away on essential training exercises the fighter screen was at its lowest since the end of the civil war.
The blue bubble that defended the planet collapsed in almost instantly, leaving Coruscant open to crippling attacks.
Imperial Navy Post The 4th Imperial fleet, under command of Admiral Vyse were on patrol of the Unified Sith Border.
"Admiral, contact with Coruscant just fell!"
"Source?"
"Unknown."
"This could be serious. Set a course for Coruscant, Max Hyperspeed-we must find out what is going on! And inform the Emperor of our actions!"
"Aye Admiral. Setting course."
The fleet shot into hyperspace, destined for Coruscant...
Weapons fire poured from the now clear skies; bringing the fury of hell, divine wrought vengence from the skies. Buildings crumbled and burned under the sunderign fire; ships darting through the skies bursting into smokey flame as the great explosions rocked the earth and air.
The dropships landed, disgorging their human waves; men pouring forth with bolter and flamer and lascannon; to crush all in their path; an innumerable tide of wrath, hurtling towards the senate chambers. A vast roar echoed through the city as the dropships opened fire with mortar at the great dome of the senate building; annointing these skies with flame and blood and death....
The ships paused; even as they fired their vast weapons; and sensor arrays blinked into life; scanning the limitless expanse of the ocean of space.
"My Lord; we have incoming vessels identified as those of The Imperial Navy"
"Do not open fire; continue with the mission, even at pain of death. We have the orders of the great Emperor" They watched as more of the city burned beneath their wrath. "Our warheads will punish all without distinction..."
"Orders Admiral?"
"Open fire. Kill them all. The rest of the fleet can't be far behind."
The mighty cannons of the fleet came to life, firing on the nearest unidentified hostiles.
