Green Sun assembled a large fleet to attack NeoBlack Sun. They found very large signatures around one asteroid orbiting Buddha, a large Gas giant in the Green Sun system.
Fleet contains:
-The Andromeda, a half-completed Flagship that is capable of combat.
-The Vine, a Large Battleship.
-The Flare, another Large Battleship.
-The Earnest, a Very Large Battleship.
-The Wood, a Large Destroyer.
-The Hercules, a Very Large Destroyer
-The Bolt, a Medium Cruiser.
-The Spring, a Medium Cruiser.
-The Typhoon, a Large Cruiser.
-The Everest, a Very Large Cruiser.
-The Condor, a Large Carrier.
-The Falcon, a Very Large carrier.
This large fleet could easily wipe the Asteroid belt clean of NBS. One jump had the entire fleet one the Buddha side of the Asteroid belt. They broke up into four groups of three.
-The Andromeda, The Falcon, and the Earnest would attack the identified NBS base.
-The Condor, the Everest, and the Spring would search another section
-The Vine, the Typhoon, and the Bolt would be another group
-The Flare, The Wood, and the Hercules would be the fourth subfleet.
Green Sun is very confident in its fleet's abilities to wipe the NeoBlack Sun clean. They were not going to last the week.

NeoBlack Sun spotted them first. Hundreds of fighters of equal or lesser value poured out of the Asteroids, but they were met with Green SUn fighters, which had better training and in many cases better equipment, not to mention they were slightly outnumbered. An enemy cruiser emerged from th Asteroids. It was obviously a 'hand-made' cruiser since its outward appearance didn't have the look of a factory-made Green Sun cruiser. It opened fire on the Falcon with its MAC cannon, but it was deflected by the shields, thou just barely. The Eanrest engaged and made scrapmetal of it in no time flat. The Andromeda unleashed its hellfire of weaponry on the asteroids. MAC shells and Lasers tore the rocks apart, leaving many satisfying booms. Over the destroyed rocks came a Large Battleship, one that had gone missing from a nearby nation several years ago. It was outfitted with many attatchments, ranging from Archer pods to additional Fighter carriers.
"Take out its fighters, I want a crew on that ship to take out its crew and the ship returned to its owner."
"Roger that. Alpha wing engaging."
"The Earnest will target its Archers and fighter pods."
"Unleashing the chicks!" the captain of the Falcon announced. This battle would be easier than they thought.

After fifteen minutes of brutal fighting, the rubble started to move out of the way. The Andromeda was hit the most, but only minimal damage was made to the giant behemoth. Parts and ships were floating about. The target was detsroyed. They had destroyed the lungs. Now all what was left was the HEart and the brains, and the ships' captains had a feeling that they would be in the same place and put up the biggest fight of any conflict with NeoBlack Sun.
