Union space, Mirach system: Union command Orbital 9:45am
Hargun sat in the command room along with a host of other Union captains and commanders. Among them sat Fleet Captain Volkus and the newly appointed Special Operations Commander Ellio Darkstrider. Everyone was in full uniform and ready for the reports to be read out. A lot had happened in the past month and everyone needed to know the latest updates and help plan for the next. Hargun knew the conference had imploded spectacularly however he knew Myrics plan and so didn’t worry about the ordeal.
Hargun stood up “Alright everyone, I want reports on the events of the last month and I want them explained in detail” He said with his hands behind his back. Volkus nodded and was the first to stand up and tapped the Holo table bringing up some star charts.
“First things first, I wish to show you all the details of the resent events concerning Tenebrae” The table outlined a few Tenebrae systems including Exceion “The Immortal Empire has somehow managed to occupy the worlds in these systems literally overnight, using some sort of mass teleportation technology we presume. Either way the authorities have surrendered however we have confirmed reports that groups of military forces are fighting back and there are numerous civilian uprisings against the IE, Thankfully the Orbital stations and ships in system are still under allied control, so we have space superiority” Volkus said and everyone murmured, Hargun nodded.
“So... They have hit Exceion again. Any sort of moves against our forces in system there?” Hargun asked. Volkus nodded and replied.
“They issued an ultimatum for all allied forces to either surrender or pull out of system. Currently we have a Dart and 2 Razor class escorts in high orbit over Exceion Prime. They are awaiting orders, however they have made no military moves against us. I expect they want us to remove our 7 ships there” Hargun shook his head.
“Our ships will not move. The Quantum Gate will be protected, besides the space around the gate is ours by agreement. That and the Defence starbase we have deployed there. I want the ships in high orbit to not engage any enemy forces unless they are fired on. However they are if fired upon to keep all damages to a absolute minimum. Have we got any messages from resistance forces?” Hargun asked.
“A few transmissions sir, however nothing solid. Tenebrae high command is yet to contact us however I think we should help pull civilians out” Volkus added. Hargun thought for a second.
“The Immortal Empire has claimed their space and civilians, helping them would be considered an act of aggression” Volkus laughed.
“Do we really care what the Immortal Empire thinks?” Hargun smirked in response.
“Not really. Alright here is their orders, broadcast a message calling as many civilians as possible to get to a set location, I want you to then ferry using shuttles the civilians to the ships and bring them to the Exceion Starbase. If the IE attempts to intervene in our humanitarian effort by shooting down shuttles or stopping the civilians you are authorised to use force. Civilians are our importance. I wont let innocents die today” Volkus nodded.
“Accepted Sir, however we have also seen the USM deploy a small fleet for peacekeeping operations, I am not sure what they intend to do however they may be willing to help” Hargun nodded.
“We shall see how ours goes for the moment before asking for help” the assembled captains agreed.
Ellio was next to stand up “As for my report on the civil war, we are finally getting the upper hand, after the problems at the Asuras shipyards and one of the major events in the Xath system we have been able to contain the problems. In total around 100 ships have defected however we have managed to either destroy or recapture most of them. However the rebels stronghold in the Dovun system have been successfully blockaded and we hope to be able to take it back within the week” He said nodding.
“Excellent, now that the rebellion is nearly cleaned up we can concentrate on our next moves. How goes the battle against the DT?” Ellio stood standing and another captain stood up.
“Our forces have helped push the DT out of Nex space alongside with our allies however a ground war in the Amathine system is still under way, however the Nex have taken losses same as their ally”The Captain replied. Elliot then added.
“We also have word the Nex ally has been rendered unable to fight after some sort of infection wiped out most of their worlds, they have flagged a no fly zone in their old territory however they have joined up with the Nex now. Once they have both rebuilt we can count on a lot more of their support in the civil war. I have current forces from numerous allies including some Tenebrae commando’s, USM NavCom personel, Spartan ground forces, IRS Forces, and Eramon commando’s” Hargun nodded happily.
“Good, I have also received word that a joint Union and Eramon strike on a Capitol stronghold was a success?” He asked. Another captain stood up as Elliot and the other sat down.
“Yes sir our forces managed to destroy one of their staging worlds with amazing success, the Eramon tactics and ships work very well alongside ours and we are hoping to become closer with some more joint exercisers soon” He said smiling.
“Excellent” Hargun replied “And what of the situation in Telestus?” A women commander stood up.
“The system has been invaded by some sort of enemy called the 'Paradox' details are currently very sketchy however both our forces and those of the AI are working together to defeat them, we should have an updated report soon” Hargun nodded.
“I want that on my desk ASAP” He replied. Volkus then stood up again.
“And what of Carnaith?” he asked “They seemed to have pulled back all forces from the assault on the Immortal Empire leaving the Tenebrae forces on their own. Well apart from the current assault being carried out by the SSC and the DHR. What are our orders concerning that sir?” Hargun smiled.
“Concerning the assault? That’s classified, the Emperor is deciding for himself though we will know shortly. As for Carnaith... some sort of terrorist event. I personally cannot see how one terrorist attack would force them to withdraw all their forces, we have had a civil war and we are still fighting on multiple fronts for Creations sake... I’m not totally convinced about them, the events at the conference have not helped the situation. I just hope they realise what they are doing soon enough. As for the attack on the IE currently under way I have detailed reports for you all. Read these but do not inform anyone. I want you all ready for anything that could possibly happen” Hargun replied. The assembled men and women all nodded in agreement as they got the virtual report.
“So what happens if the Immortal Empire decides to stop or take our forces in the Exceion system sir?” Someone said, immediately Fleet Captain Dewitt turned and spoke.
“Then I take the Transcendent Angel through the Quantum Gate and make them sorry they ever existed” He said grinning widely. Volkus laughed.
“Are you sure? That thing moves like A glacier going down hill on a good day, by the time you move in everyone else moved out or died of old age” He said as a harmless jab. Dewitt smiled.
“So Volkus a challenge eh? Your Cruiser vs my Super dreadnought? Then we can see who really fairs better. Besides I would have fleet support. Don’t worry Admiral sir, the Union interests in Exceion will be protected you have my word” Dewitt said seriously, and Volkus nodded too.
“Good, if anything goes down boot the gate up and send a fleet through, I don’t want them trying to stop humanitarian efforts for our allies” They all nodded. Hargun sighed.
“Alright everyone this meetings over, I expect you all to be on top alert, the next few days are going to be jam packed and I expect everyone to be on their best behaviour. That means you Darkstrider” Hargun said looking at Ellio, Dewitt laughed.
“Glad I’m not the but of that any more” he said with a smile. Ellio nodded and they all slowly filed out of the room. Hargun stayed and watched out the window to the world of Mirach below. Knowing full well the next few actions would decide the fate of the galaxy.
