Something is moving (OPEN FT..mostly)

[The Fel]

OOC: see ooc thread, nothing in stone atm.

IC: Round a little regarded start a planet was in a unstable orbit, it was a dead world, utterly volcanically dead. The other planets were living and the star was younger than the planet appeared. It was in the wrong orbit way out amongst the gas giants, not where a terrain like world should be.

The silent world's dead pitted surface had something that could not be but artificial structures, but then a beam of light cut out from below the surface. It cut slowly, then another, and another. There was a blast as a two kilometre wide area was thrown into space, the fel were moving. The first three ships, looking more like Succulent plants with a rounded end emerged and dove into the close by gas giant.

There was silence for a little until a beam of energy was fired into the void caused in the rocky planet and the gas giant started to shrink. This continued for some time before the gas giant was reduced to it's solid core. Seven more ships appeared and used there powers to redirect the dead gas giant's moons into a dive into the young star. The first three that sat about the core of the gas giant were redirecting it to the star, it would take years for the fel's action in this part of the galaxy to have been completed. But a few decades were nothing to them and well they had done the job, even their home world was going to be ditched into the star, it was not their first. Who would notice something odd happening out here? The fel ships started to leave the place they had hidden for quiet some time and each simply phased away when free of the planets gravitational field, they were all very organic looking.

Why they had moved now was anyone's guess, but they left no defences, but it was clear that they left little of value to them.

The planet's orbit was very strange, it had far to little mass, like it was hollow...or mostly so. But is was well off the beaten track where only pirates and smugglers would go...or the odd surveying vessel, if anything had seen this no one would ever believe them.

The small Death Cult exploration ship rocked and shook as it re-entered real space, it's machine spirit deciding it was time to leave the warp, it had overridden the controls. The captain sat in his command chair, all around him the bridge bustled and the crew worked frantically to prevent the old Imperial ship from coming apart. He questioned the Machine spirit "Why have you brought us here?" The cold machine generated voice answered back: "during routine sensor checks of the Navigator and astronomican's psychic output, an anomaly was detected, the warp has shifted to encompass a new body, this means a planet was either born or drastically altered, the process is recorded to have taken several minutes, this warrants investigation and possible notification of the closest imperial agents." Captain Julio laughed at the machine spirit, the Death Cult and their Primarch Zeta were focused on re-contacting the Imperium of Man, not serving as ecologists, either way though he would check it out.

------------------------------------------------several hours later----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Captain Julio and the rest of the crew of Exploration ship Delta gazed out at the new star, it burned white hot, young and vibrant, the old gas planets and the one oddly shaped terra like planet seemed very out of place, Julio pondered for a moment and said to the assorted Tech priests and other crew members "calculate that planets orbit around that sun." It took several minutes, the planets mass and polarity making its calculations very odd and the crew had to run it several times to be sure. "Captain the planet is on an eventual collision course with that new sun, we have also made calculations about the approximant age of the sun to the planets around it, the sun and gas giants are several hundreds of years old, while the planet is millions if not billions of years old, I've never seen anything like this, we have to record these findings for when we re-unite with ter-" the captain motioned to silence him "Command to Navigator Belo, how is the warp fluctuating?"
"Captain there is a wake in the warp I could follow, looks like 3-4 ships unknown class, unknown origin, warped out of here several hours ago, i could still follow them, if we are blessed by the God-King Zeta and his father the Emperor, we may end up where they did, but there’s no telling where we'd end up or if they are friendly or hostile." Captain Julio turned and said slowly "we follow them."

The small ship pitched and rocked as it re-entered real space again, this time in another system. This system in contrast to the last one was populated, the small ship's ancient frame began to fail and a small atmosphere leak was in one of the two cargo holds, Julio ordered that the ship land on the Xeno world, they would search there for any clues about the anomaly they had just left.

[The Fel]

The fact was seven fel ships had left in a more conventional manner than the rest, but between them they only laid down a trail like three, or perhaps four. With three of them laying a trail, the extra was their warp drives leaking a little, but next to nothing, it was not that they had used the tech in eon or two, well some what more. They picked up that someone was in the system they had left their planet.

They split, leaving one there near a red giant.

The other six blinked out, five went to the rim of the galaxy, but one headed back to what had once been a home world. It had picked up something was near the location they had hoped to leave for a little time. It was a living world and the ship was there for a reason.

OOC: Fel ships always show up as a life form, well because they are.

the Delta was low on fuel, low on supplies, and needed desperate repairs, it slowly drifted towards the lone habitable world, "Machine spirit, divert power from the atmosphere generators around the cargo hold to the engines, we need t reach that planet." Captain Julio thought, the machine spirit was directly connected wit his mind via an ancient and complex harness machines, the sprit signaled that it would comply and abruptly said "Captain, the sensor rely on the far side of the ship needs repairs, the Techpriest among us are not certified to repair it due to the fact that it contains possibly secret information, you must make the repair personally."
"Fine, but machine spirit keep the ship on a steady course towards that planet."
"Yes Captain."
Julio unhooked from the machine and strode into the central cabin of the small ship, "Everyone, I am going to repair sensor relay 4 n he left side f the ship, until I am back inside the ship stay on a steady course and do not make any maneuvers." The crew sounded off various signs of affirmative and Julio stepped into the air lock, he pulled on the Ancient void suits, checked his oxygen reading and muttered "only enough for 4 hours, ill have to make this quick then." He stepped out into the cold void and began to climb towards the damaged sensor relay, looking at the damage he sighed and said "This'll take awhile."
Tech priest Vologos sat at the sensor monitor, he switched off the one captain Julio was working on and stared at the others, a brief blip registered on number 1, that was pointed towards the gas giant, Vologos keyed up the display and the monitor read "organic life form estimated 10,000 Kilometers off of the port side. Vologos was about to delete the file, but the machine spirit shrieked out "What could possibly that old, it pre-dates the Omni-messiah, IT IS OUR DOOM!" the stunned crew sat in silence as the machine spirit continued its wailing, the Vologos wondered if the spirit had been corrupted by a demon in the warp. a split second later there was a brief flash, an within a hundredth of a second a massive beam o energy split the ship in two, the explosion from the now dead ship flung Julio out into the cold expanse o he void, and as unconsciousness claimed him, his last conscious thought was "only 4 hours of air, only 4......"

[The Fel]

The fel ship continued on course having removed an annoyance. It recognised the ship from some time past, but was still not that certain where from. The ship moved on.

It's lone crew member had only just awoken and looked at what their ship had done.

"bad"
"Enemy"
"No"
"why?"
"Time"
"why?"
"Change"
"Why?"
"Unknown"
"Enemy"
"Now"
"Friend"
"Possible"
"Why"
"Weak"
"Why"
"Time"
"Date"
"200,000,000, 15 3"
"Slept"
"Yes"

Julio awoke, he was in some kind of medical facility, the air tasted stale, probably recycled. He tried to sit up and felt a bitting pain, whoever owned this ward, they had him restrained onto his gurney. He looked around frantically and sort of relaxed as he saw a human enter the ward. "At least its not Xenos." Julio muttered, the man walked closer and Julio could see he was a doctor, the doctor bent over him and said to him "my friend, what happened to you?" Julio struggled to remember, all he could vaguely remember was the machine spirit saying it was an old ship, impossibly old. Julio tried to tell the man, but it sounded crazy even to him, he struggled to continue, "an old ship, ancient, some kind of Xenos, destroyed my entire ship in a few seconds, organic...." The doctor silenced him and said "organic? HA, you obviously have taken some brain damage my friend." and with that the doctor slid a syringe into Julio's arm, he drifted back into unconsciousness again.

[The Fel]

The Fel crew member was less than happy about the reaction of the ship. She detected the live person outside the ship. She had brought the ship alongside and the ship had extended tendrils and brought Julio aboard for a little while. She had checked him over...she was surprised, he had Fel DNA. This was a problem as he had regained conciousness and though the Fel could blank memories in most, those of their own they could not make the block stick.

The ship had repaired Julio's void suit and replenished it, when her ship had detected the incoming ship they had released him into space before blinking away. His memories would come back over time, but that was not the biggest problem, the living world near by had an unexpected problem. There was a sapient race down there, the Fel had seeded the world to make more ships, they didn't expect there to be a people down there now. Sapience was not that common, the keeper of the world should not have allowed it or at least moved the ships away.

The keeper was still down there, the Fel entered a chamber and the ship closed around her to change her so as become one of the locals down there.

OOC: Sorry for interfering, I'll not do it if you don't want, but do you mind if I start messing with Julio's dreams?

[TURGOV]

OOC: Mess with his dreams as much as you want, ill set it up.

Julio drifted in and out of consciousness when he was awake he tried desperately to tell the doctors his story, to make the understand, when he was asleep he dreamed of.....

[The Fel]

Julio dreamt he felt the unconformable heat and the sulphurous smells. He saw in the semi-light a spindly claw over him and felt that he knew this person. Despite this something made him feel relaxed, he didn't hear her but knew it said "Your one of us....it is too soon.".

His dream changed.

He saw a red giant going to nova and a fleet fleeing, they were not that different from his people's ships.

As he awoke his memory of the dream faded but he remembered where the stars were and thought he might know where that was. It was from a long time ago, perhaps there was still something there. Something was calling him.

---
OOC: If he goes there her will find the stars in a very different location and not much, but perhaps a clue. Up to you if you want to roll with this. If you don't mind I'll keep up his memories coming back and his racial memories.

[The Fel]

The fel ship had waited for sometime before it landed on the living planet, it landed without showing any disturbance to the local plant life well for a few seconds before all plant life round it died. The two hundred and fifty meter area of dead plant life started to move in section then five huge leaves started to rise from the ground and slowly enclosed the craft, leaving a small gap at the base.

The fel solo crew member exited, she looked like a native of the planet. A strange almost feline looking race, but unlike them she had a determined look about her. The keeper of this place had gone too far, things were meant to be kept quiet, though this was an out of the way worlds, it was too obvious. She knew there were thousands of ships like hers here, this was just asking for trouble.

The ship's arrival had not gone unnoticed. From the jungle a native appeared and bowed before her, she looked at it and around her wrist something glowed. It carried fel genes.

Perhaps the keeper had done something right, he had seeded this world with more than ships....But how long had her people slept?

The only way the stars could be where they were if they had slept a galactic rotation too long, that would explain a number of things, this should have been a barely living place. Those that had not slept like him must have spread, and done what they could when the rest had not awoken. That would explain the person she had rescued out there, what had delayed there awakening?

[The Fel]

She walked past the natives all cowering at her feet, then she touched one she smiled.

"Do not fear me like your god, he is no god. I must speak to him." she said quietly.

"There is onl.." the native that said that was dropped by a beam from the ship, but still moved....alive.

"He lives now like me."

The ship pods on the planet started to open.

"What is happening," a petrified native asked.

"We will leave your kind alone, but some of your people will feel the need to come with us....But you have helped us and your world is safe from all. There is no need to feel afraid." She smiled as reassuringly as she could.

The ships in the area were launching

"He who has claimed to be your god faces me, and I am no goddess but can match him."
