The Spacer War of Independence [IC]

[Guavalandia]

The remaining Smoked Paprika decides to do some fun stuff such as: observing other alien species. The Smoked Paprika immediately initiates life scam across the nearby galaxies, after finding a species with a fine technology level, the Smoked Paprika initiates FTL and heads to the galaxy.

Ring Nine's sudden departure left the Kami simultaneously both surprised and disappointed. "Did we scare them off?" Tsuji asked.

"I guess a couple thousand ships suddenly showing up in front of your house has that effect," Kagaji said, "Look, I can trace their last jump coordinates, but there's no guarantee that they didn't jump a second time. We'll have to split up our forces and search for them." The other two nodded in agreement. Given that the Spacers were on the run, it made sense that they would try to mask their true destination by jumping multiple times in quick succession, in which case they would have to act quickly as each successive jump would become increasingly more difficult to track with time.

"Get me their jump coordinates, Kagaji," Tsuji ordered, "Meji, give the fleet intelligence full authority and send out the scouts to sweep and search the area."

Two hundred ships from each of the three Kami's fleets detached themsleves from the formation and warped to their assigned coordinates to search for Ring Nine's whereabouts. As they departed, the remaining ships quickly reformed into a new formation to protect the three flagships at the centre before entering warp as well, headed for Ring Nine's last jump coordinates. Only time would tell now if one of the scouts finds Ring Nine first or if the main force does.

6 Punic-Class Supercarriers, 10 Marathon-class Heavy cruisers, 8 Valiant-class Super-Heavy Cruisers, 6 Autumn-class Heavy Cruisers, 40 Strident-class Heavy Frigates, 14 Halberd-class Light Destroyers and 75 Anlace-class Light Frigates exit Slipspace while notifying the Coalition that they have been sent assist them. Battlegroup X-ray is the largest Battlegroup assembled since the Human-Covenant War so they appeared on the edge of the star system were the civil war was taking place.

The nearest QSDF garrison responds, "Welcome. In this system, there are eight Spacer cities, five of which are revolting. We have two of them blockaded. If you could help with the others, we would be grateful.

[Ferrum Hills]

All survivors have been rescued and the wounded were transported back to Ferrum space.

Admiral Thorin: “Prepare the ground forces, we are going to island hop all of the spacer habitats.”
First Officer: “Do we even know the layout of the habitats?”
Admiral Thorin: “We do not. Comm Officer, send a message to the QSSC, ask them if they know the layouts of the Spacer cities.l
Comm Officer: “Yes sir.”
Admiral Thorin: “We currently have 8,000 infantry and 2,000 SF. I was not able to get armored support. The infantry just need to make due with close air support from the carriers.”

KA-BOOM!!!
The sound all ship owners fear, the sound that tells of the explosion.

The sound that kills.

A massive fireball goes up from where the Tartarus struck the planet, carrying with it corpses and parts, burning fuel, and supplies. The trees of the forest within which the ship collides burn, creating a forest fire little else could make.

Seconds before the ship had collided, some eject pods shot out, but they were depressingly few and the majority were caught in the explosion. One of said pods landed in a nearby lake, another in the boughs of a tree, and the third, the last, landed in a sinkhole . . .

In total, a pod could hold 6. The majority of the ones that survived held less than 4 . . .

The single greatest disaster the Hive has faced since the Outbreak . . .

"MAYDAY! MAYDAY!!" comes the transmission from the pod in the sinkhole. As they came in, it upset the walls of the sinkhole, causing a collapse.

The pod in the lake is deathly quiet, but whether that means they are dead or just unconscious, that remains to be seen . . .

And the pod in the lake. The one that had the best chance of survival, the pod-door opened, and out stepped a single person, the trademarked survival suit on them, as they look around the chaos that came with the crash.

"Oh . . . gods. What . . . how . . . why? No, this, this, no . . . Did anyone survive?"

The survivor dives into the heated water, their suit inflating, as they swam towards the distant shore. In a matter of minutes, they reach the shore.

And all they see is a burning forest, junk, and death.

"Gods . . . no . . ."

They walk through the woods in a daze, not sure what they are looking for, but still looking. They walk pass piles of scrap, fires, and corpses.

All a sign of death . . .

As they travel, they face dangers, from firestorms to explosions.

But it won't deter them.

They walk, and walk, and walk, searching for survivors.

And, finally, they come to the sinkhole, hearing the collapse, the screaming, and then the silence. They don't hesitate. They dive in and start digging, determined to save anyone, anyone, in there.

For she couldn't be the only survivor . . .

The AIs aboard the ships outmaneuver the nanovirus, containing it and systematically destroying it. However, four ships were destroyed by the virus, but that only meant that the virus was gone from those ships.

The other ships, however, began firing on the new arrivals and the remnants from the last fleet, employing stolen Black Hole Shells to rip through the enemy. Ring Nine also began firing its massive guns at the fleets while drones and bots begin fighting the Shockabots from New Master.

The Bots and drones from the nearby city reach the edge of the crash site, scanning for lifeforms.

One of Kami's scouts encounters a QSDF blockade around a Station. The site was a battle, yet one-sided. This station did not have the nanovirus aboard, and so was being boarded by bots and drones.

For she couldn't be the only survivor . . .

She jumped into the hole, tearing at the ground, moving rocks the size of cars, and throwing them to the rim, all from a streangth and endurance born of desperation.

"C'mon . . . C'mon."

She dug and dug, no clue how much time had past, save the sun passing over her back.

And she saw the hatch. She cleared enough of the ground and rubble around it, enough so none would get in the way or come rushing in, and she tried to open the hatch.

It didn't work.

She did not panic, for she knew that if the pod suffered any damage, it locked up. But she knew where the lever was.

She dug around the pod, and, at a level a foot below the hatch, she found it. Quickly, she yanked it, and heard the pod open, releasing a gust of used air.

She looked in . . .

OOC: Can you please add a rough count of how many insurgent stations and ships have been destroyed? It helps me estimate my own causlaties, make better posts, etc. No pressure though lol

IC:
A few ships get sucked into the mini, temporary blackholes, but most of the shells explode in empty space after the ships they were aimed at relocated using stream jumps.
The new ships that just arrived, the super fleet, opens fire, effectively tripling the fire output of the force. If they weren't doing damage before, they sure as hell were now. The big ships of the fleet focus on using their massive canons and large numbers of smaller emplacements to bombard the stations, but the Interstellar's have a job just as important: dispersing nanites and D-5s. As lasers, Missiles, and many other types of weaponry bombard the ships and stations, nanites quietly cut holes into the ships and stations, entering to wreak havoc. They cut apart electronics, cut holes in the walls, and disassemble people alive. As they're destroying the ships and stations slowly, one tiny piece at a time, D-5s ram into the sides of the ships and stations, deploying in squads of 50 to go around, killing any insurgents they see.

Best read when listening to Meganeko - Ultrakill Cybergrind Theme
Five Jörmugandr-class superheavy ships speed out of slipspace, they make a graceful 360-degree drift by detonating a string of low energy antimatter charges. They turn starboard unleashing a SSShitstorm of fraction-lightspeed mix of 400mm and 700mm railgun slugs. The lead ship fires it's arquebus railgun at a ring, a SIM-coated S U P R E M E brick at a ring, the four other ships speed forward into the battlefield.

At the Lamentor...

Normal day at the Lamentor, every day checking the radar, meteors and the progress of the New Masterian troops, but something strange happened. The radar operators Circuit and Glide detected an crashed spaceship, but not any spaceship, an massive spaceship and it crashed on a planet now named NM-364. NM-364 was near Cylinder Forty, where a battle happened and what it seems that spaceship participated on it. No matter if its an Spacer Spaceship or an Coalition one, they had to check it, it may have survivors! Glide walked to the fifth window of the Lamentor, where General Sizzle was standing there, looking at the space.

"General Sizzle?"

"Yes, Radar Operator Glide? Whatcha' need?"

"So, me and Circuit were checking the radar and we detected an crashed spaceship on a planet we named NM-364, we have to make sure if its an Spacer or an Coalition spaceship, for the security."

"Oh yeah? Well, as the Shockabots are helping our allies in Ring Nine, you can choose an squadron to go there, pick five and may Primus be with you."

"Thanks General."

After that, Glide called in the inter coms to all 50 Transformers to come to the control room. All came and Glide really took a time to pick up 5 to go to NM-364. He checked the alternate modes, guns, everything. Finally he choosed, those were Yokuryu(An Pterodactylus), Joyride(An dune buggy), Meanstreak(An dragster funny car), Skyklik(An triple-changer and so, he transforms into an helicopter and a jet) and as no other Transformer wanted to go on that mission, Glide picked up an scooter-drone called Clutch to accompany them. Then, everyone entered an pod and Circuit set the location that the pod would go to NM-364 and here they went. The pod entered NM-364 atmosphere and activated its landing gears and did an butter landing. They leaved the pod and saw the great nothing in the horizon but luckily, they found the crashed Tartarus and Skyklik, as the most intelligent of the group, ordered Yokuryu and Meanstreak to check the spaceship and Joyride to accompany him alongside Clutch, Skyklik saw an hole and transformed into his helicopter alternate mode to check the hole and detransformed and screamed:

IS ANYONE THERE?!

Also Clutch started scanning the ground and atmosphere.

Also Clutch started scanning the ground and atmosphere.

The women, engrossed in what she saw in the pod, did not hear the yell, did not hear the ship, and did not notice anything.

What she saw was devestating.

In the pod, there were 3 dead, one unconscious. Worse, she KNEW who the dead were.

One was her father.

One was the Viscount.

. . . And one was her husband.

She barely showed it, little more than tears at the corners of her eyes. It was not completely bad. The survivor, a mechanic by the name of Denis, was one of her friends, her best human friend. She reached into the pod, and scooped Denis out.

". . . Valeria."

It was one word, but it was all she needed to know. Denis would live! She heard the yelling in the distance, one that ratels the ground, and she went in that direction, Denis carried in her arms, six feet off the ground . . .
