The Holy Sanctuary sat in the midst of the beautiful landscape of the planet Faith. The great forests of tall green oaks surrounding the foot of the high snow-capped mountains; with the great waterfalls in turn pouring down into the beautiful river that ran past the holy site. The magnificent stone arch bridge that spanded over it, the only land path to the structure.

A mighty temple city, ancient and advanced in one. A great tower of a special metal split in the middle making two horns that stretched only half way up the high of the great behemoth mountains behind them. The single corridor infront of the structure led into the rest of the town; two symbols of the Faith, one on each side of the corridor outside, then a giant one in the middle of the main hall inside.

This was the home of the Faithful, the religious warriors who inhabited the planet. The people chose to seclude themselves from the corruption of the universe, therefore they had no fleet, only an army. But the weapon they relied on the most, was the power of the elements. The spirits of the world that they inhabited, their very energies. This they could summon to use in the weapon of the Faith if they required it. But alas, the weapon is effective only against large targets, and the many places where someone could hide too numerous for the army; it is for this reason that it would be easy for someone who did not believe in the Faith, someone who wished all that it strived to create for it's people to be destroyed, someone, who would put out a call to any who would here it to come to Faith, and meet the Faithfull.

Main Temple

The Prophets stood infront of the giant altar of marble and stone in the great Temple, finishing the small prayer they led the small group of warriors in. The last words were spoken, and the Prophets turned to look upon the five hoplites knelt before them.

"Rise, Holy Warriors of the Faith. The Tribunal call upon your services to protect the planet and people both, and preserve our way of life. Do thou accept the burden?"

They rised, in unison, the warriors dressed in golden breastplates, greeves and bracers; who had swords of platinum sheathed in leather at their sides, and round shields of silver with the symbol of the Faith slung on their backs. The golden hemlets that covered the entire face, but that had eye slits that led all the way down to the mouths but still had armor coming down to protect the nose, and that had horsehair crests of purple sticking up high.

"With the heart of the people, and the strenght of the Faith, we humbly accept the quest the Tribunal has bestowed upon us. What is it that the wise Prophets of Truth, Strenght and Honour wish be done?"

"There is one who speaks lies, who goes against the teachings of he Faith. One who wishes to destroy our way of life, and the very Faith itself. You must hunt this individual down, and liberate his soul from the corrupted mind and body before he can spread his lies and condemn others to his cause."

"The heretic shall be hunted down and justice brought swift, or by the Spirits we shall fall trying."

In a small cave in the Great Mountains

Darkness dispelled, blue light filled the cave, emenating from the great machine that stood before the man adorned in rags. The man went about busily, adjusting nobs or flicking switches, when finally he seemed satisfied with his work. He pressed a button, and the machine let out a mighty roar.

A single broadcast was cast out into the vastness of space, giving the location of the planet, along with a single message.

Come!

His eyes opened to darkness. A planet had spoken, a religious planet. He began to plot a course to the planet as he looked into liquid the darkness of his chamber.

The space around the ship shuttered, and the ship was gone. It reappeared over this holy world, and He spoke, "We are here". The voice was ghostly, but loud and spread over the planet. He awoke his two brothers.

The Three Sebecean gods had awaken. Sentalin, Conois, and Higarius looked out on the planet, and then looked at each other.

(OOC: Heh, sorry, damn forums and their crappy-ness at the moment, didn't sign me out of my other account. Anywho...)

IC:

The call of a hawk passed through the air as the winged creature glided through the hights. The thick forests below, quite except for the sounds of the many animals, and to the sound of crumbling leaves.

The hoplites moved through, in a close group. Their golden armors reflecting the sunlight that came from above, and their capes of purple flowing behind them as they moved. Their helmets sat on their heads, covering their faces and shrouding their eyes in darkness, impossible for anyone to see; and the purple horsehair crests moved slightly in the small breeze. Their shields on their backs also shimmered in the sunlight, and their swords sat flopping against their sides. The great spears of silver, as tall as a man, held in their right hands.

They moved, up through the trees and onto one of the many mountain trails. Emerging from the cloak of the forests, they came closer together, as to ward off any beasts that might attack. They would find the heretic sooner or later.

The ship entered the atmosphere, and the clouds wisked around it. It slowly moved down over the planets temple, and a ball of blue light fell from the ship. The ball fell, and when it hit the ground splashed like water, and a man was left. He wore a black cloak. He was an average height, bald yet had a young face. His eyes however were black as night, he is the creator of the Higar people (Setian-Sebeceans), he is Sentalinus-Jancrois.

He stepped out of a knelt position and walk towards the main building of the temple complex.

A ball of blue light fell form the skies, through the walls of the temple city and onto the symbol of the Faith painted on the floor. The various people turned from what they were doing, whether it be using one of the holographic computer systems, or just walking along, they turned and saw the stranger.

"By the Spirits..." most of them said, as they all looked on in astonishment.

The guards stationed at each of the four doors leading out of the Great Hall ran from their positions, shields positioned to defend their carriers, and spears pointed towards the intruder. Both shield and spear tip suddenly illuminated, both glowing a soft light. The eight hoplites formed a circle around the bald man with eyes as dark as shadows.

Sentalin raised his hand, and the spears of the soldiers lifted up and back, slamming against the wall and hitting the ground. He looked at them, and proceeded to walk forward into the temple. He made eye contact with one and made the soldier cold.

OOC: The Sebecean gods are masters of the universe. They are like the ancients in stargate and the ancients in many other SciFis.

(OOC: That may be so, but you can't say what happens to my people, that's godmodding. Please don't do it again. Besides, we are an ancient race also, we just do not use magic, our technology works well enough for us.)

IC:

The spears were thrown against the far wall, and taken aback only for a second, the holy soldiers drew their swords of platinum, which also started to glow white. One of the men placed his hand on the shoulder of the stranger who began walking away, while the rest of the guards formed another circle around him.

"Halt, in the name of the Faith! You have intruded on holy grou..."

The hoplite was cut off by a deep voice.

"That's enough Domitian. Release him. What is your business in the Faith stranger?"

The three Prophets stood at the far door which led into the Main Temple. Adorned in their white robes and ceremonial crowns of jewels and gold. They walked forward, advancing on the group with another assortment of ten hoplites who filled in behind them in two lines, spears held with tips facing up.

Interior of the Great Mountains

"We've searched all the cave systems on the eastern half of the mountains, Sir." One of the hoplites reported to the captain of the devision. It had taken half a day, but one section of the mountains was clear for a time.

BOOM!

"What was that?" the captain asked quickly before getting up and running over to the cliff's edge. He peared down at smoke that rose from a small cavern door. Rushing down, followed closely by the rest of the devision, they marched in the door and found the machine in pieaces; and the heretic unconscious on the floor next to it.

OOC: Sorry, but I needed it for an effect, I'm sure you understand...

IC: "I am Sentalinus, Founder of the Higar. We have heard one of yours cry to come. We are here. We wish to speak with this one.", He said in soft, but cold voice.

He than looked at the man who had touched him, "If I am shown any more disrespect...", he looked into the mans eyes and sent a feeling of immense pain of burning and suffering into the mans eyes as punishment for his irreverence.

The guards stood there, stoically, not showing any sign of emotion or even life. Their faces hidden behind their helmets of gold. Their swords sheathed once again and their sheilds held at their sides. The words of the foreigner didn't even matter to them.

"You mean the heretic. So he has succeeded in his task, and constructed a machine to contact the outside universe. But perhaps it is not too late to undo what he has done." the Prophet of Truth said simply.

The Prophet of Honour then joined in the conversation, speaking with an equal grace as his counterpart, "It is impossible to speak with the unfaithful, even if we allowed him the right to speak out his lies anymore, we do not know of where he is."

"Noble Prophets, we do know where he is." The strong voice came from the entrance to the temple, where the group of five hoplites stood, two of them dragging the still unconscious heretic. They moved over to the prophets, and knelt, not even acknoledging the bald 'god".

"Marcus, you have done well. This, foreigner, is the Heretic that has contacted you." replied the Prophet of Truth.

"But as you can see, he is unable to speak at the moment, and he is to be put to death for his crimes of treason against the Faith." said the Prophet of Strength.

'He shall not, and he shall speak! Conois, Higarius!", he said in his mystic voice. Two more balls of light came from the ship one green another red. From them came a man in a gray cloak with a stern face: Conois. The other was wearing a dark cloak, his face could not be seen only two eyes which were a glowing gold: Higarius.

"These are my brothers, and it is by our mandate that you let him speak to us. We must, he sent us a message and we must know why."

Zoom in Oberth (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/macross/sdfmacross/oberth.jpg) class Destoyer Gloria- Sir we are detecting a faint communications signal for a nearby planet. -Lay in a course and begin space fold. -Aye Aye Captain. The Ship glowed and hummed as massive energys began to build and in the blink of an eye the ship vanished into a thin line of energy. The ship defolded above the planet and assumed orbit. -sir we will now begin a scan of the planet to determine who and what sent that signal. -Affirmative ops. Keep me up to date.

"You have no power here, foreigner, other than your tricks and illusions." said the Prophet of Strenght in a matter of fact tone.

"The unfaithful do not deserve to live in our utopia, and heretics must be stopped from spreading their lies to the faithful." joined in the Prophet of Honour.

Nodding, the Prophet of Truth spoke also, "He has done a great deed of evil, and now you are here disturbing our way of life. For his crimes, he must be punished. Now we must ask you to beam back up to your starship and leave our home."

With their minds made up, the Prophets turned and started walking away, the squadron that had been sent out to recover the unfaithful followed a short ways behind them, still dragging their prisoner. The remaining guards that had been there since the beginning, along with the new guards that had come with the Prophets started forming around the three guests; symbolising that it was their time to go, by their own will or by force.

"No" said Conois, as he lifted his hand, and with it force of might. The energy crashed down and lifted some rock which flew towards the guards. Higarius's eyes raged a bright red, and Sentalin with the force of his mind, sent a dense wall of air (dense as a water) to the prophets.

"You do not turn you backs to gods!" Sentalin said, with a booming voice this time.

Emperor Bridger's Cheops was on its way home from the G.F.F.A. meeting when the signal was detected. She dropped to normal space and Anubis (http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/thumb/c/c3/180px-Anubis_looking_at_Daniel_-2-.jpg) launched in the single Tel'tac held in the ship's cargo bay. After the Tel'tac was clear, the Cheops entered a Hyperspace Window and continued on her way home. Meanwhile, Anubis's Tel'tac entered a Hyperspace Window bound for the co-ordinates from which the signal had originated from.

Couple hours later...

Anubis's Tel'tac dropped to normal space in orbit around the planet. Sensors detected the other ship. The ship came descended into the planet's atmosphere. It came to a hover five meters above the ground near the building that was the focus of the unidentified ship. Anubis used the Tel'tac's built in Ring Transport system to beam to the ground. He flowed forward while the two Jaffa that had come with him landed the ship fully.

The humming of the shielding only subsided after the wave the "God" sent dissipated. Turning, the Prophets noticed the four guards that had been hit by the rock standing up and regaining their bearings.

"You are no Gods, you are but magicians and illusionists. But now, your show is done, and the stage curtain is coming down."

Saying a small prayer for all to hear, the Prophet of Truth looked back down at the three strangers like a scornful parent looks at a child. Pressing a button on his bracer, the floor began to glow, and the guards quickly backed away.

"Never return, magicians." finished the Prophet of Truth before the "guests" suddenly vanished in rays of blue light that shot skywards; teleporting them back to their vessel.

"People of the Faith, the heretic has brought more unfaithfull to our doors. Do not fear, for the Prophets are watchful, and the Spirits will not abandon us. If needed, we shall call upon them, and destroy the unfaithful that swamp our territory!"

And with the reassuring words, everyone went back to what they were doing.

Anubis had entered the building and watched what had happened to the others.

"Quite an interesting light show," he said loud enough to reach the group.

His usual Goa'uld tone deepened by the fact he was half-ascended.

"More intruders?" said the Prophet of Strenght.

Replying with a weary tone, the Prophet of Honour said "Damnable heretic should be tortured first for his crimes, then executed."

The guards once again lowered their spears to face the stranger, and started advancing on him. They expected the Prophets to show no mercy on this one, so they prepared to attack, standing just three meters away from the strange man.

"That is enough, I ask all the faithful to please leave the Great Hall at this time, with the exception of the holy warriors of the Faith. Why have you come to our small planet?"

Anubis replied, "Curiosty, and the constant source for Naquada deposits to mine."

The black energy that marked where his face should have been shifted to gaze at the spears and stood his ground. He was not that easily intimidated.

First officer, "Captain there seems to be alot of Bio-Activity on planets surface. Should we send down a cloaked UAV Spy drone?", Captain, "Make it so." First officer, "launch UAV over that facility where the signal orignated get us a picture of what is going on down there." The drone is luanched from the launch tube of the ship and rockets into the atmosphere of the planet.

"If what you call 'Naquada' even exists on our holy planet, it is not yours for the taking. Now, I will ask you to return to your ship and leave us in peace, or would you wish us to force you out?" asked the Prophet of Truth.

So many interuptions, getting in the way of business. With a wave of his hand, he sent the hoplites on their way to torture and kill the heretic; while he and the other two Prophets of the Faith stood their ground, ready to act upon their words should the need arise.

The other hoplites, holy warriors of the Faith, strong in both body and mind, took keen aim at the stranger, ready to unleash death on the Prophets commands.

I have a ship that can gross the galaxy in minutes, and it bloody breaks down in the middle of no where?!

This is what went through the mind of the machine that had just been thrown out of fold space. The craft, a Margistara class transpoty chasis stood in space in orbit of an unknown planet. Swearing to itsself, the machine redirected its thoughts back into the body that was currently motionless inside the craft.

And then, a pod fired from the currently usless craft, streaking towards the planet with an amazing amount of control it landed within the Jungel on the side of the city closest to the Southern Pole.

The driod that came out was...interesting. Tall and thin, it was covered in a purple robe that glittered with stars. The driod had seen the city, and began to move, discarding the cloak to see reveal more of the same, a thin body, with two MPC Rifles linked into the back and 4 Sheild swords. The machine nodded, and began to run in the direction of the city.

Anubis simply looked at the man. The blackness of where his face should be betrayed no emotion. These people were in for a big surprise when they tried their spears on him. He noted the man being dragged away, but, in his mind, it didn't concern him.

The ship still remain. The Three were furious, how could they treat gods with so much disrespect. They would pay, whether their world would be burned down, or if their populace was massacred by Holy Zealots.

As Anubis conversed with the true heretics, three solid lights hit the ground. The Three again came down, this time furious. Sentalin walked to a hoplite, and grabbed at him, however his hand went through. He reached for the man's heart. He found it and grabbed it hard, slowly crushing it. His eyes began glowing red, with light being emitted on the face of his victim.

As the daemons came down once again and attacked one of the holy warriors, the rest opened fire on them. The glowing tips of the spears fired out energy blasts, and the closer ones stabbed at them with their weapons that could penetrate even the strongest of shielding and armor.

Changing their attention from Anubis, the Prophets said allowed in a tone of anger. "You are not welcome here sorcerors! You have been warned, and have decided not to heed it, for this, you shall pay!" And with that, they started to chant. A chant in their native language, so holy that it called upon the spirits of the planet themselves to come together.

And come together they did. The energy from the planet gathered in the top of the temple-city, and formed a massive ball of blue, which onces large enough, shot towards the heavens, leaving a blue tail behind it as it flew fast and true. The mighty cannon of the Faith, so powerful that it could destroy an entire planet in one blast, the magicians' ship would be destroyed for sure.

The Three, slowed the energy of the Hoplites, and tore it apart. The spears entered Sentalin and Conois, spilling no blood. The spears, passed through Higarius, as he vanished like dust in the wind. Sentalin not stopped by the assault, jumped up and came down with a force of a powerful explosive. From the dust, he moved, beyond the speed of normal lifeforms and attacked the hoplites. He hit one, then zipped over to the next; He was just a blur.

The ship, a worthless hulk of metal, was destroyed. As it was hit a beacon went off, and an alert was received on Higar Prime. Warships were being loaded and preped for deployment. They had a holy mission, the Zealots of the Three were coming.

The hoplites in the room were all knocked to the ground by the magician, and when they got back up prepared to strike again, but were stopped by the sound of clapping.

"You have some skills, magicians. But as I said before, you are no Gods, and you have no power here. The power of the Faith is beyond that of any other." the Prophet of Truth said as he reached over and pressed another button on his bracer.

This time, no beam of light engulfed the Three and sent them away, but a beam of yellow encompased them, and when the light subsided, the Three were enclosed in blocks of ice, unable to move, think or function. Complete hybernation.

"And you, stranger, have lingered here long enough. I ask you to leave as well before we have anymore unfortunate dealings. Take these beings with you if you wish, I'm sure you could have use for individuals such as these."

The Three were Symbiants, or an very advanced version. Their bodies were used to hybernation. They still could control the feilds around them, they would not be stopped by this cult.

Storm clouds gathered, not from the planet... they were foreign clouds, dark and lightning streaked across them. One bolt hit the ice the Three were in, melting it. From the remains of it, they awoke their bodies. The got up, and in a blur charged and their hands began to enter the bodies of the prophets of this cult.

The forcefield that gave Anubis's body its humanoid shape rippled as he spoke, "You think you can frighten me? You are foolishly arrogant to think you can survive in the void without allies. Their are creatures out their that wouldn't hesitate to destroy this back-water planet of yours."

OOC: Just a fair warning, Anubis is my most arrogant and stubborn Goa'uld based character. He has all the abilities ascribed to him in the episodes.

As a Machine it continued to run, as a machine it moved with speed that humans could not match. Step Step step, the body crunched on the ground, with movement so quite. It moved with beautiful grace, almost like a dancer with its movement.

It arrived at the city, but its running did not stop. It continued, following an unusual gathering of clouds. It moved with impunity, those who could react did not do so fast enough.

When he arrived at the temple, he slowed, his body showing no signs of fatige. He moved forward, towards the doors of the building.

(OOC: Yeah, that's why I like Anubis, I'm trying to start a war here. Makes my people see that we can no longer live in solitude, gives me my intro into the galactic community.)

IC:

The three smacked into the shield that came up infront of the Prophets. And while they were recovering on the floor, horders of holy warriors poored into the Main Hall and started swarming around each of the strangers; including the robot that had just arrived.

"You have come here, unwelcomed, and have attacked our people! For this, you shall be punished heretics!" barked the Prophet of Strenght.

And with that, the all the strangers were envelopped in blue beams, and transported to Faith's moon, the Prison of the Unfaithful. Where the surface is covered in snow and ice, and impossible to survive by anyone; and the actual prison itself, beloow the surface, full of crazies and heretics. And a planetary shield that let's nothing in or out, absolutly nothing.

The Three discovered the source of the "Faiths" power. They activated the transportation device and returned themselves to the planet. This time they were not alone. The Holy Zealots of Hara-Kesh were there. Several Phalanx Advanced Modular Frigates, began to lay seiged to the temple. Fire rained from the Command Battlecarriers, who began firing their Chaotic Gravity Cannon, the weapon of fear. The Gods returned with fury.

They nolonger took solid form, they were a spirit mist. And they attack the hoplites in the room.

Anubis stepped back as the three returned. He had no desire to interfere with them. Of course, any stray physical weapons wouldn't cause him any harm. Neither would most stray energy bolts. He had survived the destruction of his flag-ship. This was all due to the fact he was half-ascended. In this non-corporeal state, he could not be harmed by corporeal weapons.

(OOC: As much as I don't want to do it, I'm close to firing an Ignore cannon at you Setian-Sebeceans. Since you got here all you've been doing is going OZORSIAMAGODZYOUCANTBEATMELOL!!!!11! Seriously, RPing as a God is a major GM, being immortal is fine, but you have to be able to take damage and die.

Secondly, you can't just say that you found out how my technology works, that's another GM. Now if you would have RPed it out, say going around and talking with other inmates there and perhaps running into a heretic or someone who knows how it works, then I would have accepted it.

Also, you said your forces were on their way, not there. You can't just say your people are on the planet already. You have to RP your ships arriving in the system, and give me time to respond before you actually have them land. It's just a GM to do that, because I could have easily fired my cannon at each of your ships as they arrived in the system, but you said nothing about them being there.

Rethink your posts, change them and your attitude, and then maybe I'll start taking you as a serious RPer.)

OOC: Well yes I see what you mean, but to say my people were hit by a light and frozen, without giving my time to possibly avoid it is kinda GM. Also forcing my people back on their ship by the same way they arrived is as much as a GM as them understanding how you controlled your technology. And yes they can die, but to kill them would be like to kill an egyptian god, you must use something that they created (my little twist).

As with the ships, they fold space-time to jump in and out, and can seem to appear. When I said they had arrive, I ment they had just come in. I landed no one, and the frigates are fast and would be in the atmosphere before any weapons could be power up. Yes you could start firing your cannons, but only the capitol ships be solid targets.

And last my gods are mainly used to combat the jedi and sith and all the starwars people out there. I only used them here because this was a religious type RP

Anyway it you want I can have the Three remain on the moon.-

IC: The Three stood up. They would make these people pay, slavery was the punishment for this crime. They looked around as inmates came closer. Sentalin walked to one who appeared to be the dominant figure. As he near the man, his hand hit him in the chest. He crushed the mans heart and watched him slump to the ground.

"I am Sentalin, I am you god!" he yelled as his eyes appeared to have a red mist around them.

"Serve me, and you will be granted your freedom. Do not, and we will take your souls back"


In orbit, several hundred ships came out of subspace. 25 Command Carriers, 30 Dreadnoughts, and 15 Command Battlecarriers, and many destroyers and frigates. The began firing on the temple, as the Phalanx Advanced Modular Frigates, broke orbit and attacked closer to the temple.

Anubis waited to see what the natives would do next. They had piqued his interest and he needed to find out if they had any form of non-corporeal weapons or defenses. It wasn't for his own safety he wanted to know for, but if these people had the power to transport three god-like beings from the planet's surface to the moon, who knew what else they had in the way of technology.

First Officer, "Holy Jesus Captain!, there seems to be a battle going on where the UAV is currently observing!", Captain "What? let me have a look see....Wow your right thats alot of energy attacks.."-Tatical officer "Captain!!!!!! Energy spike from that Temple Looking building its shooting some kind of beam out at another ship thats in orbit. If that ship is blown up its debry will smash into us in our current orbit! we will be torn to shreds!" Captain "Lock all primary Cannons onto the beam and fire hopefully we can knock it out of line with that other ship!, Also try and manuveur us inside the planets atmosphere where gonna launch some Scout Veritech Fighters to see what the hell is happening. Also contact the Nupetiet-Vergnitzs class (http://www.mahq.net/mecha/macross/sdfmacross/nupetiet-vergnitzs.htm) Absolution we may need her here to moderate the situation" all "aye Captain" -The ship's 4 main cannons line up and Fire thier massive beams towards the shaft of light racing at the unknow vessel- Two fighters Launch from launch bays as the ship begins to descend to the planet.

In orbit, several hundred ships came out of subspace. 25 Command Carriers, 30 Dreadnoughts, and 15 Command Battlecarriers, and many destroyers and frigates. The began firing on the temple, as the Phalanx Advanced Modular Frigates, broke orbit and attacked closer to the temple.

(OOC: No, it's not a GM for me. You see, your standing in MY temple, and my stuff freezes everything in the temple, allowing it to target what it's told to. It's rather simple. Also, I did not send your people back up the same way they came. True, we both have teleportation, but it's most likely our systems work differently.)

IC:

The orbital bombardment commenced, and the enemy fire mainly hit the mountains and forests, missing the complex completely for it's strategic position. A fatal mistake. The planet's energy gathered, much more than before, and formed the great ball. But instead of all being released, it sent off blasts of the same power as before, but from the large amount of energy collected, it could do so every ten seconds for eight shots.

"The Faith is under attack, and your reputations with us are not looking good at the moment seeing as we just met. Now, either leave us in peace or help us destroy these heretics. Otherwise, we shall destroy your ships as well." said the Prophet of Honour.

"And android, you seem of good craftmanship, either draw your weapons and prepare to help defend our temple if they should land their people, or leave aswell." added the Prophet of Truth.

A few of the Carriers and Dreadnoughts took direct hits. The energy was poured into the ESMs (Energy Sink Manifolds) as they turned white, then exploded. The energy was too great. They ships took serious damage from the impact and ESMs expolding, and a few had to pull back to be get basic repairs.

The placement of the frigates was wise, as they were closer, and now had a target on the temple. The did not hesitated to fire, however they had to use less powerful weapons, due to the ROE. But the Pulse weapons still were effective. They fired on the temple's cannon. Orbital Marines were launched from Marine Ships.

Anubis responded, "I will defend myself if it comes to that, but no more. I have no interest in drawing the Empire into a war on another front."

With that he moved to a window (OOC: Assuming any exist) to get a better look at the battle.

OOC: Yes, Anubis will fight, but only in self-defense.

The Machines top duoarms split, four arms drew Feild-Blades from the side, while two lower ones both gripped a MPC Rifle. The Machine moved its head, and nodded.

"I will assist you in defence. As it was previously I set off my LRDCT Unit, and I will have craft come to assist me, I am The 5th Admiral, Chosen to be a traveler. I can not tell you what help you will recive, but it will be usful for you."

There the Machine stood, ready to recive an attacker.

First mate,"sir we are detecting a small fleet over the temple and large battle has comenced...we are also detecting oh my....Prophets sir...what should we do?" Captain, send out a broadcast to the temple." First mate, "Open sir.", Captain, "Attention prophets we noticed that your under attack it is one of our duties to defend a planets natural inhabitants from attack, we offer our ship in your aid, we are only a destroyer class vessel but our weapons are strong we also have one of our Battlecruiser class vessels enroute here as well. Her main cannon should dispose of this small fleet." -Turns to his officers- "Prepare for battle, Instruct our two fighters to engage the smaller enemy frigates they should be able to dispose of those quickly." The ship raced faster through the air as it launched over 18 missles into the sky each one taking off towards the enemy fleet at amazing speed.

OOC: The stats for this ship can be found here: (incase there are questions as to the payload of these here missles)Oberth (http://www.steelfalcon.com/Macross/oberth.shtml) it had two figthers in gerwalk mode in the small hanger. I use macross tech for my ships. Star wars and Star trek FTL
