Second Reichstag

The Communist Reich Commanders, Generals, and Admirals all stood up and began clapping their hands, with Richtofen standing up and saying "And now we will begin to play our music!" Richtofen announced as the music began to play.

Second Reichstag
Rogue

Rogue had had enough of this music and clapping and talking. He wanted his job done now. Rogue slowly slipped his limbs between the rafters and dropped down onto the stage below him, he didn't fire into the crowd be he quickly wrapped his arm around the speaker's neck and pulled the speaker against him. Rogues other arm went out and held his Pulse Rifle level as he scanned it over the crowd and the guards, making sure nobody got a quick shot off at him. Rogue let out a hissing shriek to silence the crowd and get everyone's attention.

Lyre

The Hive was, needless to say, pissed. They had slowly, quickly been worked into a frenzy by the Hive Queen, who was beside herself. The Caregivers had gone against their word. The Hive Queen had concentrated on the experimented eggling and knew then that the Vortukians had done it. When the scientists entered the hive on Lyre, instead of the normal bustling activity of a hive, they would find nothing. The Vresh would not be there, they would be hiding. All that marked that there was any previous presence at all was a body. It was a Vortukain worker, one of the ones who came in to give food to the Vresh. Half of his face was gnawed off, and one of his arms had been removed. His upper and lower half were seperated, with his entrails connecting the two. This was a message, and the words to the message were: We are not pleased. You will pay. As the Lyre Hive Vresh hid away from the scientists, one of the Engineer Vresh, who worked alongside the scientists, had already gone into the room where the little eggling was. The eggling was considered damaged by the Hivemind. The Engineer was directed by the Hivemind to cease the damage of the Hive. The Engineer Vresh picked up a piece of monitering equipment and brought it down onto the egg, silencing it forever.

Richtofen calmly stood as he was held hostage, if today would be his death, he would stare it in the face, and Richtofen spoke "What exactly do you have a reason to take me hostage for?" Richtofen asked the creature.

When seeing Richtofen so calm during the hostage, it also caused the Reich Commanders, and Admirals to calm down, followed by Krukov who ordered the procession to quiet down.

Rogue

Rogue held the Premier tightly around the neck and shoulders with one arm while he slowly scanned back and forth across the guards with his outstretched Pulse Rifle. Rogue knew that if shooting started, the first one to do would be the man he was holding, who he could kill by just tearing his head off. Rogue slowly lowered his head to the side of the Premier's and hissed quietly. This was one of the times where Rogue wished he could speak like other species, but he would have to try and get his point across. He did, however, doubt that a Vresh hiss would be understood by any creature other than a Vresh as simply a hiss. If only he had something to write or type on... Rogue slowly stepped backwards towards the wall behind him, taking the Premier with him.

Richtofen sighed "If you need a translator, it is in the drawer over to your left, if you can't talk that is." Richtofen said, pointing to the translator, over the days after his father's death, Richtofen became eventually accepting of his fathers passing, and began to accept anything that stared directly towards his face, thus he was accepting of a possible death.

The Ainarphem sipped the milk and took bites of the food gingerly, at first, gradually eating more and more to sate her appetite. She ate hungrily and with disregard to what others would think, gradually her fogginess began to subside and her full consciousness came back, her name was Ermael, that she knew for certain, but otherwise she couldn't remember anything else.

She sat up and regarded the Doctor warily, finally coming to her senses of being in a foreign place, glancing about with more alertness and the glint of a predatory fascimile in her visage. She looked the Doctor up and down as if assessing him, crossed her hand and with a wave of her hand the glass of milk came up on its own and she drank deeply. Never taking her green eyes of him for a second, like looking into the bounds of his mind for who he was or what he is

Rogue nodded his understanding and slowly dragged the Premier over to the desk. He slowly pulled his arm from around the Premier and grabbed the translator and put it to his mouth. He hoped it was a good translator. When he thought his words and half-hissed them, the translator spoke in a cool British-accented female voice. "I am Rouge, of the Vresh Hive. I do not wish to hurt you, but if I must, I will kill you. Tell your guards to lower your weapons. All I want to do is talk."

The Engalian communications labs went deathly silent as a message streaked through all barriers, strait through to the heart of Hope. As a decoding from binary code was begun, a Scouting fleet prepared to teleport to the location that the transmission had come from. As the triangulation process was completed the 10 vessels jumped, ready to find out who could have possibly sent a message to Hope.

Post voided, as said the message can not be decoded, reached or such. As well as triangulation does not work in space as it is not a flat surface like the earth.

Reserach Facility, Lyre, Solaria System, Omega Centauri Galaxy
The Hivemind

The Hive was not happy with what they had found. The Vortukians, it seemed, were trying to make Vresh that did not need the Hivemind. Some Vresh were born naturally this way, due to mutation and disease, but the Caregivers were trying to make all Vresh this way. The Hive Queen was upset by this, and by extension, all Vresh are upset by this. The queen on Lyre was instructed to hide her egglings, and her Stingers. After the last scientists left, the queen had a Warrior bend the doors so they would not open. The Tanks were somewhere in the back, trying to push their way through a wall. That Engineer who had bravely sacrificed itself in the airducts had learned there was an armory on the other side of the wall. If the tanks could break through, they could arm the Soldiers and Warriors with weapons. And with those weapons, and the might of the Tanks, they could take this facility, and eventually all of Lyre....

Ermael looked at the books and took them gingerly and opened them, tracing a hand on the lettering, looking at the scriptures and furrowing her brow in concentration. Then, she like lightning struck out a hand and grabbed the Doctors hand, her mind via neutron and electronic pulses, raced along his nerve system like lightning, focusing on the mental blocks of the brain responsible for speech, memory, and language, stimulating the Doctors mind and retrieving the pulses as fast as any computation device. Copying the Doctors learned skills into the Ainarphems mind like a rapidly assembling million piece of puzzle before her eyes.

Then, she just in all calmness, retracted her soft hand without so much as a look and in a voice of unmistakeable calmness of mind Ermael spoke. Softly, with a voice seductive and like flowing honey to the ears of everyone present, "Explain myself? hmmm well you are the one who freed me so I could ask you the same question Doctor. But if you must know, my name is Ermael, I am Ainarphem from a time I believe is eons past, so yes I am sentient to answer your last question, which was accordingly answered by the first two. I must say, I am thankful for my abrupt release."

Halicyon

As Pascal looked about the occasional citizen walkibg past she would notice the raising of voices, first seemingly at a distance behind gardens and towering spires. But, as if an encroaching roar of a musical band that was incoherent and out of tune a crowd of Humans, the majority pure Humans shouting in Emperian; making them Imperial Citizens no doubt to call the easy guess. They seemed angry, with faces contorted in expressions of dislike if not down right resentment, shouting, "HUMANITY ARISE! HUMANITY FIRST! HUMANS AUTONOMOUS!"

The Crowd was also growing as Humans came in from all boulevards, neighboring gardens, buildings and alleys, chanting and even offering profane slurs against the Imperial Goverment and the Empire. With Citizens of other races scurrying away; Aetherians, Emperians, and even a couple Alerians which were a rarity all maneuvering away quickly.

One Human seemed to operating a loudspeaker in the form of a black floating orb that projected his voice a full three-hundred and sixty degrees. Overhead a couple of Imperial Arbitrator Drone's (Imperial Police Drones) zoomed, observing the crowd as the sleek golden and blue colored aircraft about the size of a Human circled. Keeping watch to make sure the so far peaceful protest did not turn into something violent, which to Pascals soon to be unfortunate luck was going down.

At first it was a piece of stone, flung through the glass of a store, then a burning bottle of alcohol that set a part of the street a blaze, followed by the crowd moving to seemingly pillage the stores and the destruction escalated. Meanwhile, silently a line of Imperial Arbitrators formed in between buildings from all sides. They wore grey armor that looked like something from a Knightly fairy tale, they did not seem to be armed or even possess shields, just forming a line while four more Drones arrived overheard.

The crowds intensified in their riotous behavior and a bang sounded as an archaic weapon shot a bullet at the Arbitrators, with the round bouncing off against the armor of the Imperial targeted. That was apparently the last straw and the Arbitrators advanced, more bullets sounded and the Arbitrators walked forward in step, the spokesman pointed a finger and decried the Arbitrators and the crowd rushed forward in fury, some wielded crude weapons of wood, bats, pieces of metal and knives, the ones armed with fire arms fired wildly into the crowd. The Arbitrators broke out into a counter charge and the two sides met in a flurry of limps. Pascal would see the Arbitrators for a moment pushed back then proceed to advance, Humans thrown back, a young man was punched in the chest by an Arbitrator and flew twenty meters back, smashing into the arms of another two Humans.

Some Arbitrators pulled out small black rods that extened to a meter long and one end unfolded into a mace head with crackling energy and with every hit sent a Human into the rigours of a strong tazer, their musculature locking up and crumpling up onto the ground. The fighting continued undaunted as the Drones circled, targeting Humans attempting to run with bursts of blue bolts that knocked out Humans getting hit by this crowd control weapon.

Gradually the Arbitrators moved through the thinning ranks of the Humans, one Arbitrator was wearing a grey cloak that shimmered like silk but remained untorn or damaged, clearly made out of stronger material. This Arbitrator flung Humans left and right, knocked them out with his own Power Maul stun weapon and with a grace no regular Human could achieve in the span of a split aimed his arm at the spokesman still bellowing cries of aggression, the Arbitrators vambrace enlarged and remodulated smoothly to reveal a small muzzle that flashed once, hitting the spokesman with a lethal bolt of energy. The man crumbled slowly, eyes glazing over and blood dripping from the mouth as he clutched the scorched part of his chest were the bolt had struck, burning through clothes, skin, muscles and organs while cauterizing the wound at the same time due to the heat of the energy. The man died in a fit of final convulsions and the light of his eyes faded, the cloaked Arbitrator walked forward as the crowd, with their leader gone and majority wounded or incapacitated sought to flee, only to find the Arbitrators on their heels and one by one arresting them.

The cloaked Arbitrator turned to Pascal, as if noticing her for the first time, his helmet analyzing him and registering her as an off planet visitor cleared by the Planets Administratum. He slowly walked towards her and his helmet faceplate retracted back to reveal an Emperian face, with irises of deep purple and short white hair, a scar ran down the right side of his face on his cheek. Which, was of choice as Imperial Medical science could fix wounds, especially over time to get rid of scar tissue but splicing in newly grown tissue, interweaving it into the surviving original tissue. So this Emperian male wore his scar as a sign of veterancy, aside from his Rank and the fact an Arbitrator near him referred to him as Commander Theran.

Of course however, a twist of fate for Pascal would occur as a Human couple, Male and female knocked into her, and dragged Pascal into an access hatch in a neighboring building, the Commander pointed and shouted to halt, but the couple depressed a small hand held button and a set of explosives went off, no doubt they were more than simple Human activists to had planned this out. The explosives were in the form of eight crude black powder grenades locked in a wooden crate set near where the spokes-person had fallen. No doubt having been planend originally for the Arbitrators, the explosion knocked the Commander off his feat, but without injury, while three other Arbitrators were also flung back.

The couple rushed on, urging Pascal to come with them as they retreated, thinking her of being part of the group by mistake.

Alpha Prime, Engi Science Labs:

The message was brought to the lab, with little other information. The Engis here didn't know what to make of it, but from what they could guess, someone, or rather something, was harming another thing. This was a rather general conclusion, and the scientists knew it. They would try next to take six stations that picked up the message and hopefully trace it, taking into account the time the message took to travel, and where it might be in a 3D space.
