Battleship Kataria (Treacherous)
"My Lord, the planet is now in firing range!" A robed warrior stood in the doorway "Excellent, have the cannons ready to commence orbital bombardment immediatly!" A dark figure swang around "Yes My Lord!" The warrior turned and left, the dark figure walked over to a figurine, it was that of the great hero Kadun, the dark man took an axe and slit across his palm, he let the blood drop into a bowl at the base of the figure "Warrior god Kadun, please let those who defile you be burned by this attrocity!" The dark man bowed his head and rose, cannon shots could be heard as the planet below began to burn.

Unknown Planet, Unknown Race
it was as any other day on the planet below, people continued their commutes to jobs and others wasted away the hours that made up the dull day, it was hardly expected that great blasts of unknown origin should fall this day, it was hardly expected that the lives of an entire race should be snuffed out in one day, but it was just so, that millions lost thier lives that day, the Priesthood had struck

Planet Kaduna
"Grand Duke, the Priesthood have struck, we just got word from a DSR ship that an unknown system was reduced to rubble." The Grand Duke had a look of panic come over his face "The Priesthood have planned this before, if they have done what i believe then the very future of the Kaduna now hangs in the balance!" The Grand Duke sighed, these were dark times "what is it Grand Duke? What have the Priesthood done?" The messenger asked "We will be the one's blamed for this attrocity, we are going to pay for the Warrior Priests bloodshed!"

(OOC: an intro to my nation's terrorist group, the Priesthood, also known as the Warrior Priests, anywho, if you find the planet all evidence will point to Kaduna being the aggressors)

Aboard the ICS Tiranoc
Captain Aelion gazed out of the transparent scrith of the bridge, at the limitless void of space, as his frigate cut through the vacuum on a routine patrol.

"Sir, a previously unknown planet has been detected by our sensors. It seems to have recently had all life destroyed." The Sensors Officer said.

"Check for ships in the area, if an entire species has just been liquidated, Caladonn must know the cause." Aelion replyed, his jaw tightening.

The elf complied, and the frigate continued forward, searching for the ship...

"there are Kadunese Deep Space Recon vessel's looking for us i understand!" The Dark figure said to the man across from the table "yes, but they will not get far, now tell me, how did we lose our way and end up as the weak Kaduna?" The man asked but before the dark lord could answer another priest entered "My lord, a vessel is in the area, it may be looking for us!" Both men at the table rose "I am sorry My Liege, i must take my leave lest i be discovered here!" the man said to the dark lord "Understood my brother, Priest! Have the engines charged, and get ready to fire cannons!"

"Sir, our sensors have detected a battleship of Kaduna origin! They may have been the ship that bombarded the planet," the officer said.

"Very well. Full Red Alert, all crew to battle stations. Order for the warp drives to be prepared, in case they are hostile," Aelion ordered.

The ship sprang to life, with red beacons gleaming and elves running to and fro. "Greetings. This is Captain Aelion, Imperial Naval Officer of Caladonn," Aelion said into a communications channel. "What is your business in this area, and what do you know of the destroyed planet yonder?"

08-07-2005, 20:19
"My Lord! The ship appears to be attempting to communicate with us!" A Priest rushed into the dark lord's chambers "Patch the communication through into this room!" The Dark Lord responded "Very well my Lord!" The Priest left and the communication was repeated in the Lord's chambers "This is the Priest Lord Kraegar, you have no business in this area! Leave now or your ship will be fired upon!" Kraegar shouted back "My Priest, are the cannon's online?" He asked "Yes My Lord, should we fire upon the other vessel?" The Priest asked back "Do it!" Kraegar sat and contemplated event's as they unfolded, the plan was going well.

Ten ships, all Zaitsev Class Imperial Star Destroyers, and 25 Ships, all Mao Zedong IIs, and 10 Prochkhorovka Fleet Carriers and 12 Relay Mobile Suit Carriers were dispatched. Sure, the Workers State was mighty busy at the moment, but it could spare the resources.

The force hyperspaced to Kadunan space, and signaled the Kadunans:

"This is the New Dornalian People's Navy. We are here to fight the Putschists who wish to do you harm. We will begin patrol of this sector...."

"Our Grand Duke is currently away on matter's of the states importance, I Admiral Krowadan have taken his place, we have sent a small ship to the planet from which the Rebel strike came from, hopefully we will be able to clear up any misunderstandings that arise, we would suggest that you do the same, lest you look like you aid a murderer."

Admiral Tsujimoto said, "We will do the same. We hope that no misunderstandings emerge, as we have come, as stated, to fight these terrorists, not help them."

Tsujimoto then ordered a ship to move to the planet where the strike took place, sure enough, to investigate.

Meanwhile...

Admiral Tsujimoto got this reply from the ship. Well, it wasn't a reply, just a heckuva lot of static.

"Damn.....they've jammed us. Nobody gives me the raspberry," she went, slightly annoyed. There were mere terrorists.

"Move the ships closer. Order a strike on that probe."

A crewman said, "Ma'am, our comms are on the fritz! What do we do?"

She said, "Switch to the Gertrude, use microwave transmitters."

The crewman said, "Aye, Comrade."

The crewman began broadcasting messages out on other bands, hoping to find one that wasn't easily jammed.

Meanwhile-the Mao Zedong II vessel that was dispatched to the scene saw also reported problems. It saw the JAMBOT, but was unaware of what to do with it.....

Deep Space Recon Vessel Karder

Captain Karder's Deep Space Recon Vessel popped out of FTL just outside of the burned planet, "sir, comms are experiencing jamming, it's a Kadunese JAMBOT, it has possibly been tampered with!" An ensign called out "so brake into it, just stop it from jamming!" Captain Karder called out sarcastically, the ensign nodded before tapping away at his console, "remote link has been established, encryption code has been transmitted!" A while passed before the ensign spoke again "captain we have recieved transmission's from the JAMBOT!" He called out "well open it, let's see what our Priesthood friends have sent!" The captain ordered "Captain it's opening by itself, it's messing with the computer!" The ensign cried out before a great shock was sent up his body, a transmission began to echo around the bridge "Captain, as you may now be aware your vessel has been sabotaged, i now control the weapons, the engines, the Cammunication's and the self destruct mechanism, if your crew fails to maintain my vessel or attempts to break my hold then you will all perish!" The crew looked stunned, they could not think of anything to do, they were going to die!

"They're firing upon us!" came the startled cry from the defense officer.

Immediately Aelion began barking orders. The holoshields went up, with the enemy cannonballs impacting harmlessly several meters away from the frigate's hull.

Normally, a frigate would stand little chance against a battleship, but Caladonnian ships were built with highly advanced technology. Although drastically small in numbers, they compensated somewhat by their technology and shipbuilding.

The Caladonnian railguns, plasma rifles, and lasers rang out in response, but unfortunately the enemy escaped, and Aelion's attention was occupied by a strange probe they had ejected, jamming the communication signals. While the communication officer attempted to circumvent it, another Kaduna ship was sighted.

OOC: Do the two Kaduna ships look similar? If that's the case, Aelion may start blasting.

IC:
Tor Caladonn, Caladonnian Ringworld
Supreme Chancellor Aramil sank back in his form-fitting white chair, and gazed out at Tor Caladonn, the capital of Caladonn through the huge pane of Transparent scrith that dominated his office. He was sipping Aelian coffe when the Minister of Defense entered, looking grim through resplendent in a deep green robe.

"Lord Chancellor, a frigate of ours on exploratory patrol was fired on by a Kaduna battleship near Spacedock 67. They offered no explanation, and may be on the befalf of the Kaduna government."

"I do not want war with Kaduna," the Chancellor said somberly. "However, if we are attacked, Caladonn must fight to defend ourselves. We do not exactly have limitless reserves, what with the Chronosian pirate conflict and the Goblin Insurgence, but we do have some ships to spare.

I want a squadron ready to investigate, with a fleet mobilised at Spacedock 67 to back them up if need be. I will adress the Senate in the morning."

The Minister of Defense bowed and left.

Only hours later, a cruiser, two destroyers, and two frigates under the command of Commodore Archetron set sail from Spacedock 67, ready to provide any support possible to the ICS Tiranoc. However, due to warp storms, their arrival time has been delayed.

(OOC:

OOC: Do the two Kaduna ships look similar? If that's the case, Aelion may start blasting.

yes, they are similar in design, however all other Priesthood ship's follow a different design)

(OOC: Soviet Leaders, you mention sending communication's to all ship's in the area, so far only New Dornalia has been able to circumvent the JAMBOT, unless you RP breaking through the interferance(sp?) or finding the only non jammed channel then the comm you just sent fell on deaf ears)

Deep Space Recon Vessel Karder

The New Dornalian message broke through the resistance, it was faint and had a lot of hiss but it was clearly a question of the ship's status, unfortunantly all attempts made by the crew to respond had failed, an automated message recorded by the Priesthood began to transmit itself back on a similar channel "we are fine, a few small technical dificulties but nothing we could not handle, you may have noticed a vessel up ahead, this is a known Priesthood vessel, unfortuantly our weapons remain offline for the moment but we are sure that you could assist us in destroying this enemy of the empire!" The ship ahead was Caladonnian and the crew knew this, the captain then and there made a snap decision "ensign try to fight off this sabotuer, it is better for us to die than have the whole galaxy burn!"

The ICS Tiranoc turned to face the Karder.

"Fire all available weapons systems at the enemy ship! Although their ally escaped, they shall not be so lucky," Aelion ordered. Immediately, the guns turned to face the new enemy, and soon hundreds of blasts were fired. The plasma cannons in front fired off their deadly cargo, followed soon after by the railguns and lascannons, streaking toward the vile Kaduna. The Communications Officer continued to attempt to circumvent the jambot, but was still having difficulties.

Deep Space Recon Vessel Karder

The ship rumbled as shots hit the shields, Kadunese cannons fired back, the crew could do nothing but watch as the Priesthood made them seem more like the bad guy's, "Ensign how far are you from breaking the Priesthood's virus?" The Captain asked "not nearly close enough captain!" He sounded worried and so did the rest of the crew, a violent explosion caused the bridge crew to colapse, "captain, the JAMBOT has detonated off our starboard hull, it has caused a giant breach, the Priesthood will not let us seal off the decks, comm's are still down, it does not bode well Captain!" The Captain grimaced this was a bad moment in the history of Kaduna and it was to get still worse, a Fleet of two Priesthood battleships appeared in orbit of the planet.

(OOC: the Priesthood ship's don't look like the Kadunese vessels, they still retain some of the original design but have very different markings)

IC: The shields of the Tiranoc held, the enemy shots dissipating harmlessly. The guns of the frigate bellowed out in response, firing a constant stream of deadly fire at the enemy ship, hoping to wear down their shields, while the Defense Officers worked frantically to prevent the failing of the Caladonnian ship's shields.

Aelion noticed other ships on the screen, but ignored them for the moment, hoping they were not hostile.

IC: "It is not my place to make decisions regarding all of Caladonn, however we have been attacked by a Kaduna vessel, that is a declaration of war. Any assistance you could render would be helpful," Aelion said in response to the Priesthood's offer of help.

Aelion was confused. The Kaduna had never done anything to Caladonn before! Although contact was limited, they were traded with occasionally and certainly did not seem like the nation to attack unprovoked. Nevertheless, the salvoes continued.

The Grand Duke stared into the view-screen of the long distance comms device, "Lord Prophet, i was just about to put into place order 6-72, what is the meaning of your communication?" He asked "Excellent High Priest Karden, Kadun will place you highly in the ranks of his celestial army, we have the assistance of one of the Alien species found above unknown planet, is the disaster ready?" The lord prophet asked "do not fear my lord for no Kaduna ships sha'll be launched from this day on!"

Kadun Homeworld, Undisclosed Location

"Admiral, it has been confirmed, Karden is a traitor!" The Admiral grimaced at this news, "Have Karden eliminated, have it blamed on the Priesthood!" The Admiral felt sick, this was the Grand Duke, the man who had secured Krowadans position, and yet he was a Priest, it was undisputable, he was indeed working for the bad guys.

Above the Unkown Planet
As the Tiranoc continued its firing, lightyears away, the warp storm died down. Immediately, the squadron of Caladonnian ships warped into reality, the cruiser, ICS Silver Needle transmitting a message to Aelion of the Tiranoc:

Sir Captain,
I have arrived with a squadron of our finest warships. Caladonn will be notified immediately of this treacherous attack by the vile Kaduna. Meanwhile, by the orders of Lord Admiral Ilthamar of Spacedock 67, your ship is placed under my command.

Lord Commodore Architron, Imperial Caladonnian Navy

Aelion read the transmission, just as the Caladonnian squadron warped into view. He quickly set a course for rendezvous, and soon the ships were united, bearing down on the Kaduna ship with guns blazing. Commodore Architron sent a message to the Kaduna ship:

Captain of the Karder,
I am authorised by the Imperial Caladonnian Government to use all necessary force to subdue your vessel. Your treacherous attack has been considered an act of war against the Caladonnian Empire and the Intergalactic Union. I will offer you this one chance to surrender before my squadron boards you.

Lord Commodore Architron, Imperial Caladonnian Navy

Architron also sent a message to Caladonn, informing them of the attack. Messages were sent out for a hasty reconvening of the Caladonnian Senate, and preparations were made for war.

The communication systems were at the moment under the control of the Priesthood, and so when the response was sent to Caladonn it was that of the Priesthood "The great nation of Kaduna is ready to take anything that the puny Elves can throw at them, you will not stop us!" The Priesthood were planning somthing

Kadun Homeworld, City of Kaduna

"Friends! We have been betrayed by the Admiral Krowadan! He was caught plotting my death! If the Admiral is seen he is to be shot on sight!" Kadun would be proud of the Grand Duke's plot, it was a monumental plan that so far was going without hitch, the Admiral had grown increasingly weary of the Duke's religon, he could not be trusted, but now there was only one more man who could stop Karden, he looked to Grand General Korten, he had the full loyalty of the army, but there would be only one way to turn him.

Priesthood Fleet Above Unknown Planet

"Lord Priest we have a communication from another alien vessel! They are asking as to the wherabout's of the people who scorched this planet!" The Priest Lord smiled "Tell them!" He quickly said back, a message was sent back "This attrocity was performed by that of the Kaduna! If you wish to assist in destruction of this vile species, then please come with us!"

The Priest Lord made a rare visit onto the bridge "Priest Captain! Do we have a response from Caladonn and New Dornalia?" He asked "Yes my Lord, the Captain of the small vessel told us that he would not be able to make any agreement's on the behalf of the Caladonn people, however a larger Caladonn Fleet has arrived, we are hoping that they mat assist!"

Decurion Caelian and his Decury of ten men blasted into the bridge, the soldiers quickly attempting to apprehend all personnel and identifying the captain. Caelian said, through his helmet, "You are arrested in the name of Caladonn for what you have done. Do not make a move or my elves will blast you where you stand."

All around the ship, the legion of elves apprehended other crewmembers, waiting for enemy resistance.

The Elves had burst onto the bridge, this was a good thing, the Kaduna could at last explain the situation, an alarm began to ring on one of the consoles, "Captain!" One of the Ensigns shouted out "You need to get off this ship NOW!" The captain shouted at the Elves, hoping thay would heed his warnings, the self destruct had began.

Grand Duchal Flagship Kendwina

The bridge shook once more as Krowadan made his way from the planet of Kaduna, the planetary defences had began to fire upon the grand vessel and 3 battleships had blockaded the space above them, this was going to be a tight escape, Krowadan thought to himself as another missile hit the Vessel, "How far are we from safe FTL point?" He asked one of his Aides "Captain we need to make it to the Satalite of Kanden before we can leave safely!" Another hit shook the vessel harder "what have we lost?" Krowadan asked "sir the Engines are going offline!" An Aide quickly responded "Screw safety limits! Aide Kuet, take us into FTL!" quickly an aide began the process, after a minute he was ready and the ship sped through the Blockade.

Kadun Homeworld, City of Kaduna

There was now a great crater deep into the Cities center, there was fire all around and dead bodies scattered within the pit, most had been melted by the engine flare, Karder was angered, this was not supposed to happen, but it had resulted in some good, he now had indesputable evidence that Krowadan was working for the enemy, he opened a long distance transmission to General Korten to tell him of the news.

"I understand," Decurion Caelian said. He quickly opened up his intercom, and relayed the message to the other elves that the ship was self-destructing. Meanwhile, the other soldiers went around taking the Kadun prisoner with anti-grav manacles, before herding them into the boarding shuttle. Caelian sensed that they only had a few moments to escape.

"Quick! Close the doors and take us out of here!" he shouted as he lept through the doors of the shuttle a fraction before they closed. The engines whirred to life, and the shuttle blasted back to the ICS Silver Needle. Through the viewports, hundreds of the other shuttles were doing the same thing, when suddenly, a huge blast rocked all of the shuttles, as they looked behind to see the Karder explode in a huge supernova of light, rocketing the shuttle back to the Caladonnian cruiser even quicker.

Bridge of the ICS Silver Needle
Commodore Architron looked up from his holographic display to see two battlesuited warriors escorting a man in Kaduna clothes, bound at the hands and neck with anti-grav lines stringing him to the elves, preventing all but movement of the head and feet.

Captain Karder

"Please! You must believe me when i tell you that this is all a plan orchastrated by the hands of the vile Warrior Priests, we did not mean to fire upon your vessel, and had we not had a computer error we would have been able to stop ourselves, now please, i must mourn for the loss of my crew and comrades!"

A lone Red Fleet patrol ship was hearing communications from the neaby battles.

"Call home. Send for the 3rd Fleet."

-----------------------

The 3rd fleet came out of jump space. Star Marshal D'Allaire was on the bridge, surveying the remnants of a recent battle.

"Sir, we've detected a Caladonn vessel. Transponders show that it is the Silver Needle."

"Very well, hail the area on a wide band frequency:
This is Star Mashal D'Allair of the RFV Liberty. We received reports of major battles in the area, as well as rumors of a planet being glassed. The Red Star Federation would care for an explanation."

"My Lord another vessel has appeared, they wish to know the reasons for the planet being destroyed!" The Priest calmly told his master "I will handle this communication, put it through in here!" The Priest lord responded "Alien Vessel, I understand that you wish to know what happened here, we will tell you, a violent insolent race of putrid genetical wasters came and they destroyed the planet for what it was worth, we are here to see that they pay for the crimes of murder!" The Priest Lord grimaced at the word murder.

Outside of the Silver Needle
"I see, sir," Decurion Caelian said. "I am in no position to make decisions, however I will escort you to the Commodore. All I can say is I saw your ship firing on a Caladonnian frigate." The shuttle entered the massive docking bay of the cruiser, along with many other shuttles. The elves began disembarking from all the shuttles, leading strings of Kadun prisoners on anti-grav neck chains. It appeared that almost the entire crew of the Karder was captured, save the ones in the center of the ship.

The Decurion led the captain by his chain to the bridge, tugging unceremoniously, although thinking over what he had said. The other prisoners were taken to the Brig, to be interned until further notice.

Finally, Caelian and his captive reached the bridge, and entered, to see the commodore gazing at the holographic display. He turned as they entered, and his gaze hardened on the enemy captain.

Caelian tugged on his neck chain, and stood holding it behind the prisoner. The Commodore sat down, and said, "Welcome to the ICS Silver Needle, Captain. No doubt you are glad you were able to damage our ship. Well, the wrath of Caladonn has fallen upon you, and your ship has been destroyed, with the only survivors awaiting a Caladonnian prison camp. What do you have to say for yourself and your nation, captain? What caused this unprovoked attack?"

Commodore Architron was abruptly taken from his interrogation, as the Communications Officer said, "Lord Commodore, we are recieving a transmission from our allies, the Priesthood."

Architron listened to the message, and responded, "The prisoners are being questioned by myself, they may be returned afterwards, if the Caladonnian Senate wishes it." He turned back to the prisoner, but no sooner than that another message came through, from Yugoamerica. Architron replyed, "Greetings. This is Commodore Architron, of the Imperial Caladonnian Navy. A Caladonnian frigate was suddenly attacked by a treacherous Kadun ship, which has now been destroyed, with the crew apprehended. Caladonn is considering action against Kaduna, with our new allies, The Priesthood."

As D'Allaire was speaking to the Priest Lord, his comm officer chimed in. "Sir, the Silver Needle is contacting us, they say they have allied with the Priesthood."

"Very good! Open a three way channel between the Priesthood and the Silver Needle."

The faces came onto the viewscreen.

"Gentlemen, it seems we are allies."

Architron ordered his first officer, Lieutenant Osgiliar, to continue interrogating the prisoner. He turned to the three-way viewing screen with the Yugoamericans and the Priest Lord.

Commodore Architron was a middle-ages elf, with jet black hair and deep green eyes. He wore a sleek silver-and-black uniform over his lofty frame, as he sat down in a hoverchair on the Caladonnian bridge, the two others in holograms before him. "Indeed, it appears circumstance has placed that role upon us," he replied levelly, staring at the other two. "Once the gravity of the situation is realised by the Caladonnian Senate on Ringworld, I am sure the fleets of Caladonn will be at our disposal. At the moment, our squadron lacks any sort of fighter support, which makes extended operation difficult. I am interrogating the Kadunese captain, hopefully he will provide information on why a normally peaceful nation would suddenly attack us. What are your thoughts on the matter?"
Yugoamerica

"For the moment, we will scramble our fighters, giving your fleet coverage. I think that we should jump to the nearest colony of Kaduna, and find out what is the meaning of this.

the Priest Lord groaned in secret, this was the trouble with trusting outside help they always asked too many questions, he hoped that the Prophet lord had an answer to these questions, "I am sure that all questions sha'll be answerd(sp?) but for know we must fight an unjust enemy, what say you!"

"I thank you for the fighter support. I have news that the Caladonnian Senate is meeting on this matter, and will most likely agree to the sending of a full Carrier Task Force. As for proceeding to a Kadun outpost, I agree wholehartedly. My men will begin calculations for a warp jump to their nearest settlement, while interrogation of the prisoners continues. Farewell for now, esteemed allies. Architron out."

The Commodore turned from the hologram, and ordered for the calculations to begin, while he retired to meditate. Soon, the fleet was ready to warp.

Senate Chamber, Tor Caladonn, Caladonnian Ringworld
"The Imperial Caladonnian Senate is called to order!" shouted Cantor Quarion, in charge of the procedures of the Senate. The Senators filed into the vast chamber, going to their respective places marked by their planets. In the center of the collossal hall stood Supreme Chancellor Aramil, standing on a hovering disc.

"My fellow Senators of our illustrious nation, I bring grave news. Right after we adjourned yesterday, an unlawful and treacherous attack was conducted on one of our exploration frigates, the ICS Silver Needle." This vile outrage was perpetrated by the most unlikely nation possible: Kaduna, with whom we have had little contact. The ambush was executed by the Karder, a vessel of theirs. As expected, our valiant crewmen returned fire, under the command of Captain Aelion. The enemy ship was destroyed, with many prisoners taken. A faction of that nation, the Priesthood, wishes to aid us in executing this war forced upon us by ill will, as does the nation of Yugoamerica.

I hereby propose that a Carrier Fleet immediately rendezvous with our existing forces in that area, and proceed to Kaduna to take whatever actions necessary. What is the will of the Senate?"

The Senators all resolutely pushed the green button on their discs, signalling approval. The results were displayed on a huge hologram just above Chancellor Aramil: 1000 to 0. The war had officially begun.

"Your lordship, i am honoured to be in your devine presense!" The Grand Duke was knelt before the Prophet Lord "Rise my Disciple, the time hast cometh, the lord god Kadun will return to us!" The Prophet lord exclaimed as the Duke rose to his feet, "How will you silence the prisoners taken by the Caladonn?" He asked timidly "The lord god Kadun shall silence them for us!" The sharp voice of the Prophet was raising all of Karden's hairs, "M'Lord as you well know Krowatan escaped in the Kendwina, do we have to fear him?" The Dukes questions did not bother the faithful Prophet "I have sensed that Krowadan is in grave danger, he is no longer of any concern to us!"

Romeo sat in his command chair, surrounded by glowing red panels, crewed by the appropriate member of his staff. In front of his was a large, windowed dome, with navigation and tactical consoles sticking out over the window. Directly in his view was a large screen, that came down during face-to-face communication and battles, showing the battle situation.

"Computer, send all messages and tactical and communications logs to the nearest Yugoamerican relay probe. Request a response from the Supreme Red Command as soon as possible."

A pleasing tone was heard on the intercom.

"Message sent."

"Be wary. The future of the sector could lie in your hands. Durong out."

All around the world the same broadcast was being played, the same message telling the warriors the news that they had dreaded most "All warriors are to board their local carrier vessel, the Priesthood home planet has been discovered, we must strike now whilst the iron is still hot!" The Grand Duke's voice echoing around the world as Warriors began to climb aboard battleships and vessels to take them to the supposed world of the treacherous Priesthood, now was a great occasion but no-one seemed happy.

"Ensign, what are we doing here? Where is the enemy planet?" The Captain asked "Captain, this may shock you but there is not another world for many lightyears, has the Grand Duke got it wrong?" The Aide asked "The Grand Duke is never wrong, laun-" He was stopped by a loud alarm "CAPTAIN!!!" This was the Self Destruct alarm, now everything made sense, but of course now was too late.

The Carrier Group appeared out of the warp in a flash, quickly rendezvousing with Commodore Architron's ships. The Imperial Caladonnian Fleet now numbered one heavy carrier, five cruisers, and ten frigates. They were commanded by Vice Admiral Valinon. He quickly requested an audience with the Yugoamericans, from the bridge of his flagship, the heavy carrier ICS Gondolin. When the hologram appeared, he said, "Greetings. I am Vice Admiral Valinon, of the Imperial Caladonnian Navy. I suggest that we warp in concert to the nearest Kadun outpost, while the interrogation of the prisoners is completed.

"Very well. The prisoner is presently being interrogated by us, but you are free to send some of your troops also. Just be warned that Caladonn will not tolerate any abusive practices."

The Captain was moved to the Gondolin, where the Vice-Admiral himself prepared to speak to him.

"Captain Karder, I can hardly understand that you meant no harm, as Caladonnian ships were attacked. I regret to inform you that due to your actions, Caladonn has declared war on your treacherous nation. So we can end this rather quickly, I would suggest you co-operate and tell us what prompted this ambush."

Before the ships jumped to warp, a small shuttle carrying five men, all carrying large cases, landed on the command ship.

They exited the shuttle and walked to the interrogation room, putting their cases on the floor and the lead extended his hand to the chief interrogator.

"Greetings, I am Major Leonid Makarov, of the KGB. We have been sent to aid the interrogation of the Kadunan filth."

Suddenly, the Yugoamericans entered the bridge, and he shook their hands. He told the prisoner, "I am sorry, but I cannot spare the time to question you, as we are about to enter the Warp. You will be escorted to the Interrogation Room." He turned back to the holoscreen.

Two marines, battlesuited and carrying intimidating plasma rifles, unhooked Karders grav tether, and escorted him to the Interrogation Room, where he was tethered to a chair. Five Caladonnian officers sat around him, and motioned for the Yugoamericans to sit also. The two marines took up positions behind the prisoner.

"Greetings. I am Lieutenant Casparan. Let us get down to business," the lead elf said. "You seem to be claiming that the Priesthood sabotaged your ship. How did this happen?" Before Karder could reply, one of the other officers picked up a needle from a sliding panel in the wall, and injected it into Karder's arm. He then sat down again.

"M'Lord, do you think it wise to attack the Yugo Americans and the Elves?" A Priest had found his way into the captains room, "Kadun would think it wise!" The robed captain replied sending shivers down the spine of the Priest, "No offence M'Lord, but you are not Kadun." As if each of the two men could sense the thought of the other, both drew their weapons and met in the middle of the room, staff hit staff as the two men struggled to break past the other, "We should retreat and consolidate our forces!" The Priest cried out but the captain wouldn't listen, "Kadun will consider it most unwise for us to flee!" he responded.
