[OOC: It is recommended that you read this (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=121721) RP for background information and for the other RP.]

Nanakan Patrol - Crab Nebula
Nanakaland had a secret presence in the Crab Nebula. It wasn't always like this and it wouldn't be like this after the top secret mission was done. Squadrons of fighters were patroling the area. Nanakaland wasn't the only nation that had a presence there. Super American VX Man and Techon had a presence there, too.

In the Crab Nebula, several fleets from all three of those nations were together along with a super capital class ship that seemed to be a joint Nanakan-SAVXian effort. They were there to crush an invisible threat - the Stalkers. Until recently, no one had seen the Stalkers and survived.

The Stalkers were intelligent, but they didn't let it show. After all, the Stalkers looked more out of the movie Alien than they looked humanoid. The Stalkers jumped from ship to ship, feeding on their prey - basically the ship's crew and passengers - they got their name by the way they stalked their prey before attacking. The Stalkers would take in all technology they found and add it into their mothership to make it better and they stole fighter ships to use for the mothership's defence.

The Stalkers had discovered earth and the moon. If not stopped, they'd soon annihilate the human race. Thankfully, they were stopped. The Intrepid, the stolen ship they were caught on, was destroyed. Super American VX Man, Techon, and Nanakaland traced the Stalker mothership back to the Crab Nebula, where they went and prepared to fire the new superweapon, the United Grand Celestial Glory.

First, however, the defences had to be disabled. In a space battle, the fighters defending the mothership were entirely destroyed. An infiltration team made up of Nanakan and Techon marines was sent to the Stalker mothership to disable the shield generator. The team managed to get onboard, but Roberto, a Nanakan marine, turned out to be a traitor.

Roberto was shot and the team continued. They managed to find the shield generator and set up explosives. The team then fled from the Stalkers to the boarding frigate. However, Roberto was alive. Even though the co-pilot of the boarding frigate tied him up, Roberto escaped in an escape pod and has signaled the Great System's hidden fleet to come. The infiltration team is still en route and the Nanakaland National News Network almost leaked valuable information about the United Glory.

The Holy Celestial Empire of Great System of Deep Space and the Stalkers have formed a dark alliance. Even though the Stalkers are pure evil and are not to be trusted, the Holy Empire doesn't trust Nanakaland and is willing to support an alien race that is dangerous than let their enemies use their superweapon.

A Nanakan patrol flew through the sector, searching for Stalkers when they instead found a hidden fleet! The Great System really did trust the Stalkers. The Great System had probably been hiding a fleet for days. The fighters hurried to return to their fleets and report the news when a beakon suddenly sprang up. The enemy fleet was on the move....

Nanakan Space Shuttles

It was a matter of racing back to within range of communications with the Nanakan fleet. The Great System's fleet was heading toward the Nanakan/SAVXian/Techon fleets to attack them and the Nanakan fighters had to get back in time to warn them before it was too late....

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/scout02.gif
Nanakan Space Shuttles

The Beast had stayed dormant through all of this,but finally,it had awoken.As the Nanakaland spacecraft neared,a unencrypted,open line was sent out to them:
>>>START MESSAGE
[code:1:fc90b7c161]
This is the XMS Beast.We have listened in on your radio chatter,about these "Stalkers" and "Great System of Deep Space" and have come to the conclusion that you require assistance.We are able to assist you with our mothership,the Beast,several Frigates and several thousand fighters.If you accept, that is.If you do,tell us your coordinates,we'll Jump there.That is all.
[/code:1:fc90b7c161]
>>>END MESSAGE

OOC:Oh,alright.Just ignore this then

[OOC: Xanter, just wait a little bit. I'm waiting for a key development in the plot before the storyline advances.]

The Boarding Frigate Attached to the Mothership
"Ejecting in 10 ... 9 ... 8 ... 7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2... 1," the co-pilot said. "EJECTING!" The boarding frigate ejected and headed back to the United Glory. There was a big explosion a minute after the ejection and the shield generators were disabled. The superweapon prepared to fire!

As the superweapon, the United Glory, prepared to fire, the enemy fleet readied their assault. The Great System's fleet was going to try to stop the Nanakan/SAVXian/Techon attack on the Stalkers.

[Now it is important to view both threads. If not already, start viewing the other thread from here (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2808348#2808348).]

[OOC: Xanter, now you can join the RP.]

ROOSTER'S Crow

"Sir," The tech said. "The infiltration team made it out. There was a total of two casulties."
"Good," Four star Admiral Colin Walthour said from the command seat. "Then this battle will be over soon."

[OOC: Keep watching both the A Scream in Space thread and this thread.]

[OOC: Don't worry, I am.]

The United Glory was almost done readying its primary weapon. The laser was aimed at the Stalker mothership. The superweapon would soon fire.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/battlecruiser19.gif

The fighters flew past part of the SAVXian/Nanakan/Techon fleets to get within communications range of the United Glory.

"Hostiles have been detected," the sqaudron leader said over a com-link. "It looks like the Great System's design. Prepare for combat." The warning was given. Now the fleets needed to ready for battle.

Walthour had just finished his congradulations with the boarding marines when the message came through.
"Send all fighters to the ditress beacon. We won't need them here, pull out all the ion frigates, and half the semi-nuclear frigates. Also sned in the X-Runners, and the Backrunners. I want all available firepower from the Destroyer, make sure all power is taken out of engines and divide it evenly into firepower, and shield energy. I don't want us to be caught unprepared."
"Yessir!" Three techs said.

The superweapon fired, shooting a huge laser beam into space. The beam soared though space and ripped through the hull of the Stalker mothership. The mothership exploded, killing all of the Stalkers on board. The Great System was the only problem remaining, or so they thought....

The ships of the Great System moved closer, within firing range. It was time for a battle.

"They're within range!" shouted Admiral Clark. "Destroy them before they destroy us! Get the fleets ready."

"Yessir," replied a lieutenant.

"Also, prepare to fire the superweapon again," Clark added.

"I can't do that sir," the lieutenant said.

"Why not!?" the angry admiral asked.

"It will take at least five to ten minutes to recharge the weapon when you take into consideration the cooling period," explained the lieutenant.

"Fine," Clark said. "However, I want to destroy the Great System's fleet with the superweapon ASAP."

The X-Runners led the 'charge' it is what they were designed for. They had unike shield generators on the front, that formed an X. When the shield was on it was a square. Lasers could be fired from the X-Runner, but no light, or medium laser could get through it. X-Runners were meant to break into enemy lines. The regular Runners are for retreating, they have heavy firepower on the backs, to hold lines while retreating. Both ships usually had a ten man crew.
The X-Runners started firing, and soon they broke the front line, and soared through the ranks.
Other one man fighters, such as X-2s, which were balls, with four wings pointing out, making an X, Starheads, sleek ships designed for speed. Also T-Wings, ships that looked like Ts when stared at straight on, the two arms being the laser turrets.
They all broke into the enemy, and the big fight begun.
Towards the back the Ion Frigates and semi-nuclaer frigates watched. The Ion frigates began to fire the blue bolts, but the nuclear frigates waited, trying to find a cleared area.

Now was the time to test the experimental Nanakan Laser and Gun Drones (based on Higarian design). Several capital ships dropped rows of the drones in front of the Great System's advancing fleet in an attempt to slow them down and maybe destroy a few dozen enemy fighters.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/gun_platform01.gif
Gun Drone

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/ion_platform01.gif
Laser Drone

"Are all the drones laid out?" the admiral asked.

"Yes," replied a lieutenant.

"Is the enemy fleet still advancing toward our position?" Clark asked.

"Yes," the lieutenant replied again.

"Do synchonized firing at the same coordinates in the enemy fleet to destroy some of their ships," ordered Admiral Clark.

"Yessir," the lieutenant said as he typed into his computer. All of the drones deployed in front of the advancing enemies fired their weapons at once.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/ion_platform03.gif

After the first wave, several dozen enemy fighters and ten frigates were estimated to be destroyed. After the enemy retaliation, half of the fifty drones were wiped out. The drones fired again, aiming all of their power at the enemy's main capital ship...

Dispite the constant enemy fire, the fleet moved forward. It depatched fighters and frigates to counter Techon and Nanakan fighters and it aimed its capital ships' weapons at Nanakan and SAVXian drones. 41 fighters, 21 frigates, and 3 capital ships were lost as the fleet kept advancing.

The capital ships starting firing at enemy targets and secondary squadrons of fighters were launched. The drones were plowed through as the fleet moved forward to attempt to destroy the superweapon before it could shoot back.

The light design of the Nanakan Space Shuttles meant that rows after rows of fighters were destroyed. The frigates were not ready for battle when the Great System's fleet reached the area so the enemy got the first strike. All Nanakan ships retreated further back to defend the capital ships, especially the Celestia, Empyreal, and United Glory.

Something needed to be done to prevent a loss. It was time to do a field test on another set of prototype ships that were being carried aboard the Gallant. 50 Nanakan Enforcers, an experimental class Nanakan heavy fighter, were launched. Twas the day of field tests.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/fighter_a11.gif
A Nanakan Enforcer

Hundreds of the Great System's fighters advanced to take out all fifty Nanakan Enforcers.

That advancement was the biggest mistake the Great System's fleet made. The Nanakan Enforcers had not yet gone too far from the NSS Gallant. The Enforcers' and the Gallant's shooting managed to inflict heavy losses on the enemy ships.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/somtaaw/destroyer2.gif
The NSS Gallant

The Great System's fighters retreat from such a trap before all are lost.

Now the Enforcers are really put to the test. They chase after the enemy fighters and start destroying them.

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/fighter_a11.gif

:twisted:

The Great System sends out anti-fighter frigates to take care of the Enforcer threat.

:roll:

"Fine then," said a voice in a transmission to the Great System's fleet. "Because you did not leave in ten minutes, you will feel the wrath of my superweapon!"

The superweapon fired at several enemy capital ships. The laser plowed through entire Great System frigates and fighters and tore through the hull of the target capital ships.

"Looks like we got here late," Fleet Command said,in a voice not male or female.
"Indeed it does," replied Captain Tirahn dryly.He turned to his main weapons officer."Ready the Gravwells,when they are 50% charged,launch them.After that,send out the bombers for that ship." Tirahn pointed at the Great System's capital ship."Looks like it took damage already,but it can take more" The weapons officer nodded and urried of towards the weapon console...

Meanwhile,Fleet Command had opened a COMM line to the Tri Alliance(Nanakaland,Techon,and...another one.Sorry I could'nt remember);
[code:1:d75fcb7d45]
>>>MESSAGE BEGIN
It seems we have arrived here late.But we can still help.We have sent a squadron of bombers for the capital ship,and our cruisers are being readied.May Ht'thaarn be with you.

"Help's better late than never," Admiral Clark said over the transmission.

Roberto's escape pod was picked up in a heavy frigate.

"Aim all of the firepower at those super battleships," Admiral Nelson ordered. "Without their command, the enemy fleet may retreat!"

The Great System moved its frigates and fighters to defend the super battleships.

OOC: Sorry, I'm gonna be busy for a while today. I'll try to join in later.

[OOC: Sorry if this seems a little gomodding, I am rather pissed off at the moment. Not to mention tired, I got four hours of sleep total last night.]

Three X-Runners pushed on. They fired at enemy after enemy, all seven turrets blazing away. They had pushed back a little part.
The captain of one signalled in.
"Sir, area is clear!" And his, and the other two X-Runners cleared out.

On a semi-nuclear frigate, two missiles launched. They flew right into the cleared area, exploding, creating a wide gap.
" There it is, a break in their lines, hurry fill in before they can retake it!"

Two sqauds of X-2s, Starheads, and T-Wings flew into the area, the gap leaving the capital ships open for attack.

.::BUMP::.
BUMP for two reasons. (1) So both RPs can be finished. (2) So I don't lose the threads via purging.

The break in the lines gave a clear path to the super battleships.

The Nanakan Enforcers moved through the break in the line along with the Techon fighters. It was now or never to destroy the enemy super battleships via fighters....

http://well-of-souls.com/homeworld/hws/hw2/fighter_a11.gif

The Techon fighters take the lead, the aces up in front. The aces took off to the left, to fire upon one super battle ship. The rest start to scatter to the other ones.
Three sqauds of T-Wings, eight each, flew upward from the battle, then they turned around, and flew straight at one battleship.
"Fire missiles," The leader of the squads said.
All the T-Wings let loose of their missiles, and the forty eight missiles soared straight for a battleship.

The Enforcers target enemy defensive fighters and frigates, giving Techon fighters clear space to the enemy capital ships.

[OOC: Enforcers are anti-frigate fighters.]

All capital ships are destroyed and there is anarchy in the fleet. Everyone attemps to retreat, but the only ship that can successfully hyperspace out of there is the frigate that Roberto is in.

The Nanakan fleet takes this situation to their advantage and starts moving the entire fleet to take out the enemy forces.

Techon fighters and frigates provide aid for the Nanakan fleet.

The Great System's fleet surrenders. Only one heavy frigate escaped via hyperspace - the one mentioned earlier.

As the fleets moved to surround the surrendering enemy fleet, news got out to Admiral Nelson Clark....

The United Grand Celestial Glory
An officer walked up to the admiral.

"What is it now?" Clark asked.

"I think we have a problem," the officer replied.

"What is it?"

"It involves the Stalkers."

"What now?"

"Ships captured by Stalkers are all gathering near the moon," the officer explained. "Many of us think they're preparing to take it over."

"We need to get back to the moon and stop this!" Clark ordered

"Yessir."

"Sir they retreated, we won," A tech said.
"yes," Major Leader said.
"Good to hear," Walthour said.
Then a message came through, talking about the stalkers.
"That isn't good to hear," Leader said beside Walthour.
"All ships, report back to destroyers, we are going back to were we came from," Walthour ordered.

OOC: DOnt post anything major untill tommorow at about 4:00.

[OOC: I was going to take a breaking point here anyway.]

OOC: Gah, damn. I've slipped so far behind. Just give me a quick rundown of what I need to do at this point.

[OOC: The Great System's fleet defeated. We went back to the moon to stop the gathering Stalker-captured ships from invading the moon.]

.::BUMP::.
This BUMP is so Super American VX Man, Techon, and Nanakaland can finish this RP.

[OOC: Yo, I am here, but tommorow I probably won't be on untill late.]

[OOC: Okay. I just want to finish this thread soon so we can move on.]

[OOC: Otay!]

The Techon fleet redied itself, moving up to the fronter regions of the rallied fleet.
"Ready the fighters," Walthour ordered.
"Yessir," Aaron answered.

[OOC: Otay!]

The Techon fleet redied itself, moving up to the fronter regions of the rallied fleet.
"Ready the fighters," Walthour ordered.
"Yessir," Aaron answered.

The United Grand Celestial Glory and the rest of the fleets prepared to wipe out the Stalker threat once and for all. The remaining Enforcer prototypes were deployed to intercept the Stalker infested ships before they invaded the moon.

Nanakaland had several counter-measures. The Enforcers manuvered past enemy fighters and started firing at the Stalker-stolen frigates. Nanakan Space Shuttles joined the frey to keep the enemy fighters off of the Enforcers. The United Grand Celestial Glory prepared to charge it's superweapon to take out the one Stalker capital ship there. The fleets needed to hurry up as the Stalker ships were almost entering the moon's thin atmosphere....

"We will fly through the atmosphere to keep the stalkers away," Sage said into the transmission, the Anubis had taken some heavy hits during th battle with the Great System, and it wasn't doing that well, so they decided to stay low in the atmosphere to stay safe, also to shoot any stray Stalkers.

The Techon fighters were lead by the X-Runners they charged into the stalker's lines, taking one man fighters out by the dozen.
The four Destroyer class ships began to fire at the frigates, and other large ships. Things looked rather well, escpecially when an unexpected visit came in.
Five Devil class ships from the Vindar. These ships were firebreathers, almost literally, they had five semi-nuclear missile launchers, twenty Dremda rotating missile launchers, and thirty Raven Rocket rotating missile launchers. Along with ten heavy turrets, and twenty medium turrets. They were so destructive the Vindar Government almost had them banned, untill the Nella wars came around.
The Devils began to pour on missiles onto the enemy. And they demplished many quickly, then the enemy began to pour onto them.

---Double Post---
I don't want it to waste it so:

The Stalkers took heavy losses.

The Stalker capital ship was progressing quickly and there was no time to charge the superweapon. All of the ships were too busy fighting to notice the Stalker capital ship launching pods down to the moon - almost all of the ships, that is. The NSS Celesia moved as fast as it could to intercept. The number of pods were too big to be able to destroy them all in time, though.

The Celestia started to enter the moon's atmosphere, the heat of the entry was burning straight through the shield to the hull. The capital ship wasn't designed for the entry onto a planet or moon, so the the outer hull was getting damaged. Then, the order was given. The Celestia's EMP cannon was fired and the pods were pushed up by the magnetic field. Most of the pods exploded in the magentic field or rammed into other Stalker ships, but the stray pods got destroyed by fighters.

The only problem was that the NSS Celestia was still plumeting into the moon!

The NS Celestia was plummeting to the ground. Commander Johnson took over manual controls in an attempt to pull it up as more Stalker pods fell to the moon. Time was running out. Suddenly, there was an explosion. The Stalker capital ship was destroyed. There was no time to celebrate, however. As the Stalker ships got destroyed, pods fell to the moon's surface and the Celestia crash landed....

"The Celestia has crash landed," said Lieutenant Williams.

"Really?" Commander Johnson replied sarcastically. "I thought we were still in space. Thank you for stating the obvious."

"We need to intercept the Stalker pods that landed and run a systems check," commanded Lieutenant Walters. Everyone looked at her. She was obviously taking command in such a situation...

The Anubis saw the crash. The NSS Celestia plummeted down in front of them, it wasn't on fire or anything, but it wouldn't go back up. All the turrets were focusing on pods that came near, and the Anubsi flew towards the falling ship.
"Sage there is nothing we can do," Jack said.
"You are right," Sage replied. He stopped the ship, but continued to watch the NSS Celestia.

Chess Board
In the Destroyer Four star Admiral Colin Walthour sat in the command chair. Major Aaron Leader was to his right, they were listening to the hustle of techs.
"The NSS Celestia crashed!"
"Bring all forward turrets to the right, a enemy frigate is coming for us!"
"Fighters, you need to intercept those pods, we can't let them crash!"
Colin stayed silent, beside him the blonde haired male (Aaron) barked orders.

[OOC: All of the things these techs said are an important part. Even though you probably knew that for two of the three.]

The Chessboard sat towards the front of the fleet. The front turrets were blazing at a frigate that was heading for them at a fast pace.
Little did they know that it wasn't a Stalker ship, but a totally unkown race's ship, or rather stolen ship. It had jumped in during the battle, and cloaked itself. The creatures aboard sensed that this would be a good feeding place.
The turrets shot shot after shot, the bolts hitting the shields. The frigate got closer and closer, and then a explosion came from the front. A piece of debris (Suppoisdly) flew away, it looked much like a box. It flew forward and hit the Destroyer. It clanked against the hull, and stuck onto it.

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

Inside the ship a rectangular wield was made, and soon the little rectangle fell down from the cieling, along with four of the creatures.
In appearance the creatures looked like a insect in a way. They all had four legs, and kind of a parrallelagram body. It looked like it was put together with square puzzle pieces, metal puzzle pieces. They had no eyes, but they had a mouth, just two little pinchers, in front of a hole.
These were the Sequa (Sek-way) they were a product of the Xan. They were sent to tear apart ships, and kill its crew. They were used as a weapon by the Xan in the beginning, but then an outbreak of them got a mothership destroyed, and all the crew died.
Now they were metal, and blood thirsting machines. They patrolled all over the galaxy to gain more and more numbers. They acted like a stalker in a way, they would kill a ship, and get enough more Sequa from it, but they made sure to keep the ship in tact. Unlike the stalkers they ate a lot of metal.
The four little creatures looked around, they were in a storage compartment, they ran to different boxes, and started eating, within a mintue, there were ten of them. They reproduce by dropping one of their chips, and the metals they eat replenish that loss of chip. The chip they lost grows out of itself, forming a different Sequa, there are many different types of Sequa, each one has a specific job. Here are a few

Warrior-Attack any moving object, kill any living organism.

Worker-Eat metal, and reproduce, to expand population

Scout-Scout out areas of the ship to find were the richest metals are

Queen-Reproduces constantly, is produced by a hundred different chips coming together.

The Chess Board was soon to have its own infestation.

Several teams from the crashed Celestia put on space suits and climbed out onto the moon. On the moon, there was a horrible sight. Dozens of Stalker pods and lots of wreckage was scatered all over the surface, creating fresh crators. The Nanakan marines raised their weapons as they looked around the area.

They were a fair distance from the Nanakaland Moon Colony, so the survivors of the Celestia crash were a long way from civilization. A lot of people survived the crash, but the Stalkers started bursting out of their pods and climbing out onto the surface of the moon. There was no choice but to fight every Stalker in sight....

[OOC: Techon, do you want to help stop the Stalker invasion of the moon?]

[OOC: Sorry, Forum has been shit lately]

[OOC: Understood. They say they'll switch to a better server in April.]

The teams of marines swarmed out of the crashed NSS Celestia and attacked the Stalkers before they could leave their pods. Dozens of shots were fired. Commander Johnson checked the radar. The dots of the enemy pods gradually disappeared. The Stalker invasion of the moon was finally stopped.

The survivors of the Celestia crash went back to the ship. The commander gave the order. Dozens of flares shot up to the sky. Scouts detected the flares and signaled others. Soon, hundreds of Nanakan Space Shuttles from orbit all over the moon started descending. They landed and picked up the crew. Frigates moved down to tow the crashed dreadnaught.

Nanakan Space Shuttles



Meanwhile, back in orbit, the remaining Stalker ships grouped together. The Nanakan fleets tried to destroy them, but they appeared to have raised some sort of shielding around the whole fleet. Only one thing could destroy it.

The United Grand Celestial Glory charged up. By the time the crew of the Celestia were picked up, it was ready to open fire. Once all friendlies had cleared the area, the superweapon fired and destroyed the Stalker forces. The Stalker threat had finally been eliminated - or was it?

A pod ejected from the back of one of the Stalker ship just before the Stalker fleet was destroyed. One Stalker had escaped...
