Blake woke up to a slight pain in his right chest. He was in the same spot when he was shot. A medic had just started fixing his wounds. After an hour, when he could walk, he noticed that almost all of his crew had been killed, and almost all of the ground vehicles in the vehicle bay had been either totalled or heavily damaged. The engines of the Arcangel2 were nearly totalled. Only a few crew personnel managed to hide out for a while until they left. All of the berserkers and bombers were gone. Why hadn't BE 1000's forces just kill him when they had the chance? Blake didn't want to bother retaliating against BE 1000 right now, he needed to fix his ship. He went to the engine room and began repairs...

Blake was greatly saddened by the lost of almost all of his crew. He also wondered that he had better hurry repairing his ship and defenses, since Kensai might send more of her minions to finish the job.

gtg. I'l be back tomorrow sometime, don't kill me or attack my ship until I get back at least.

FOR XEROH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And as for Xeroh, (if she/he listens to me, and I don't think so), I'm not sending those Marines after you. My Marines have just been trying to rescue you. I don't know who is trying to kill you.

My Marines burst into the facility, whipping the guards into pink mush with their cool guns. They had followed the black van carrying the mysterious prisoner, and had decided to rescue.

After receving confirmation from the Admiral, they infiltrated the mercenary base under the guise of 'the new guys'. (Hey, it worked for me when I infiltrated the Iron Throne in Baldur's Gate). As they reached the top floor, they couldnt fool the guards in the corridor, and had to pulpify them.

Listening through the lead and titanium door with special equipment (cup on a string), they heard a man interrogating someone. The person was threatening to cut off limbs, when the Marines decided to act.

They burst in, using the dead guards from the corridor as shields against the wave of bullets. The guards were taken down easily, (typical for an rich and powerful evil corporation to hire weak and dumb guards) and there was only one other person left alive in there: Xeroh.

The person in chains on the wall was staring in shock around herself, with the Shade Marines cutting the bonds holding her to the wall and checking the bodies. They asked her if she was ok, and said that they should leave, (the guards were banging on the door).

One of the marines blasted the wall with a chaingun, leaving a big hole where rthe plasterboard used to be. Behind that was a solid peice of titanium. The rescue party wouldnt be getting out that way. The marine captain smiled as he thought of an idea...

Two tiny C12 charges were placed onto the top of the door that the guards were outside. (Its a big door) The charges went off, and the huge titanium blast door rumbled, then fell away onto the crowd outside.

Easily half the guards were crushed, and the rest ripped to shreds by the high powered rifles that the Marines wielded.

The party ran out of the the base, where a dropship was waiting for them. The ship escaped the planet, and entered orbit around the moon. The Marines high-fived each other, a great feat with the bulky environment suits on. The leading Marine, Captain Gregson, walked over to the silent form of Xeroh.
The Marine sighed, wondering why Admiral Shade had ordered them to rescue one of thousands of people taken away by mercinary companies.

Gregson tried to establish contact with Xeroh.

"Why did you land on this planet? It's the hive of criminal activity in the system. Were you trying to get hired as a bounty hunter, or a mercenary or something?"

She only glared back at him.

"Well, if you dont trust us, so I'll tell you who we are and what we are doing here."

A spark of curiousty passed into her eyes.

"We are the 1st Squad of the Shade's Space Marines. We were stationed here to keep an eye on the place, but when your ship crashed into the park, and those mercenaries captured you, the Admiral ordered that you be liberated from them.
The Admiral is currantly on a highly dangerous mission with the rest of the fleet, to stop a terrible evil from being unleashed upon the galaxy, but even with the help of several allied fleets, victory over the evil is unlikely.
We saw you fighting those bounty hunters, and I am personally bamboozled as to how you survived all that ammo they threw at you. I kept a tally of the weapons that hit you. Here."

He stared at her over the sheet, her eyes locked in his solmen gaze.

"I'm not a sceptical man, but that made me look twice. I won't ask you how you survived all that, but I will ask you one thing: Will you help us? This battle the Admiral is at, it's not just a fleet-to-fleet, a-planet-or-two is-at-stake thing, its a three-fleets-against-the-most-powerful-evil-in-the-universe thing . I mean that if this evil isnt stopped, then the entire galaxy will go up in smoke. Nothing will be spared in the aftermath. I'm not going to force you, but if you decide to lend your hands to the fight, then this bunch of planets and stars might just have a future in the future"

His speech over, Captain Gregson of the SSM waited for her answer.

For the second time in our history Pat's empire must find a new homeworld. After engineering a tech which flawlessly transports them in and out of slipspace, to cover their tracks of course, the remainder of the empire jumps to a new homeworld, which is a perfectly kept secret. Untouchable.

During the ride, Pat sits in meditation in his flagship. He trys to come across what happened to Lillith, but fails. Perhaps she's been turned into the exact opposite of Kensai? Good instead of evil? Oh well, if all else fails, perhaps we can amputate the wings. While he meditates flashes of the past enter Pat's mind, the first ravaging of his homeplanet, years in the past. And his first alliance, with Auir. He is struck by a sense of loss about Auir. He thought on that for a moment, at least Blake was still around. But poor Ex, his empire destroyed, and himself dead. But what happened to Pink Menace? Ahh well, no time to question the past. He returns to the bridge.

Lillith inspected her wings. Below where the wings meet flesh. There was a odd markings it looked like black bindings going back and forth(like the back of a corset) it was if it was telling her she was bonded to something. Each time she brought out her wings the pain lessened as they tore through her skin.... Kensai stepped of the charred ground of the docking bay. She saw through the hole on the wall the devistation below. She ordered a immediate evac. They knew where she was, she would have to rebuild...

"So this spirit is the cause of yor power. Interesting, if need be I now know your weak point. Never rely on something you yourself does not already have. I need no outside help for my power." Kensai whipped her cloak around and walked back to her ship. The demo charges had been laid. The ship had put all necessary equipment aboard....
