Mineing Ship Ra's Avenger, Dubbed Reven System
Year 2195, Month July, Date 4th
Captian Adam Fitzgerald sat on the main deck of the Ra's Avenger, his eyes regarding the debries that was Reven 9 before him. This was the First planet from the systems outer Core, thus had been the first planet to be destroyed in the Mining ships Intolerable advance. For the Last Year the Planets Debries had been slowly eaten away, moving at a perpously slow pace as to not mine more then was needed for the next projected 30 Years. The last was now within the bowels of his ship. And ever so slowly he began the scanning of the fourth planet in the system, the next Planet sutible for his ships crew.
They moved through space with practiced ease, their ship gliding past Gas Mining stations set up around the Gas Giants. Population of the System was recorded to be almost Ten thousand, all working on the Resorse miners. Not a bad number, Adam thought to himself. Then with a sudden lurch, the ship stopped, and before them was the yellow glowing planet of Reven IV.
"Scans copleate sir" the Sensor Officer Replied. "We found something unexpected, the second we began scanning for minerals, the planet pulled up some form of sheild. From that evidence I sent a page on through to FLEETCOM for them to go through."
"Sir, Activating Planet Cracker, waiting command" The Weapons Officer said.
"Begin operations, FLEETCOM can call if they wish us to stop."
The bridge crew nodded, and a flurry of activity began as they prepared for Mining operations.
Outside the ship, the massive craft began to open, looking from a long cone shape to look like a Spider. The "legs" pulled closer and closer to the main bulke of the ship, until there was only the slightest gap to which sparks of Red Energy Combined. From the main part of the ship, a shot of Blue Plasma launched out, collecting the red charged energy on the way. The entire combonation began hurling towards the planet at massive speeds.
And it almost, ALMOST struck. But as it got into the upper atmosphere, it struck something. Energy began shimmering, as the Planets sheild system absorbed The second most powerful weapon in the Tsurani Arsanl. Energy that could crack planets mearly shattered like a wave apon rock, creating the most amazing colour display.
"Um Captian...weapons failed"
"I saw Officer, I saw, we might want to wait this one out, lets see what orders we get from FLEETCOM before continuing."
"Sir, we have Short range transmission, coming from...It can't be!"
"what is is Officer?"
"Sir! We have an Inquisitor on her way, she has ordered that we stand down, and that we are to send with her our Landing Compliment and Ground Base, along side that you are to go down as well sir."
"Very well, continue normal procedures until you recive further word. Those that will go with me get ready, I am transfering command over to Kirstin. All of you, to work!"
"Yes SIR!" came the hollow reply. Many knew it, an Inquisitor wanted the Captian, that ment that it was likely he would become into her service. Thus, he would never be seen again.
Surface of Reven IV, Four Hours after Base Contact began
Adam looked around, his hand holding tightly to the Baridium Pistol in his hands. The worlds surface held a yellow tinge to it, and without the Enviroment suit he would have been dead very quickly. The air was thick with Sulfur, or at least thats what his HUD was reading. He sighed, then turned to the Inquisitor.
"Your Holiness, may I ask why my pressance is nessersary here? You seem to have things well in order" He asked causiously.
"Because Captian, these men will respond better to my commands if your here, Its mearly an issue of speed. A number of things on my ship must be out in good time, and the crew would be slower without confidence." She replied matter of factly. "now, spread your men out, we have work to do."
