A video screen of the hangar deck was looming over the engineering bay. Richard picked up an old commentator's Microphone and linked it to the Hangar's speakers. His voice darkened as he stated "Welcome to my parlour said the spider to the fly."
Stark yelled out "Jones, get this door open now!" The response was degrading as it came through "I'm afraid not, Mister Stark. If I were you, I would consider a slightly better tactic than the most obvious one to anyone thinking straight, which your associate, Mr Takeshi isn't?"
Stark stated bluntly " You like the sound of your own voice, don't you, Richard? You really are smug son of a ..." The Commander interrupted "The gratitude you get for locking Hughes out of the hangar depression controls is insulting. Not to mention the fact that The Inferno is now a rather large bomb, technically means I've saved your lives again, does it not."
Takeshi yelled "You ba-" before Stark put his hand over the mouth. Stark replied "As Hughes doesn't have control, you do?" A delighted voice came through the speaker "Now there's the brain that got you to Commander. Correct, I do. Now how about we make a deal. I have no political qualms and do not care what faction of civil war controls the ship. I only have one agenda."
Stark thought for a second before adding "The ship. You didn't wish to save our lives - you didn't want to rebuild the hangar deck. I swear what ever happens the Sudriana survives intact." Richard pressed a few buttons and spoke into his mike "You may be a rebel, Stark, but you will keep your word. You need this ship in one piece just as much as I do. There are 6 interior doors to that hangar, 1 is unlocked. Security teams are forming on your positiion. Never call me unsporting, Stark. I know you like a challenge." Jones switched off the screen and put down his mike. he had work to do.

OCC: Whoops, sorry Clay, I got the intentions in my head:P Plus, I needed to do that to show Takeshi's Intentions ==========================================
Stark and Kitagawa listened to Richard's message as his voice and image vanished. Takeshi saw the Inferno, a bomb. A Bomb? A Bomb!
Takeshi and Stark deployed two Skippers from the roof as they saw the launch deck, which shoots fighters into the thick of space. The Inferno was a bomb according to Richard.
"Get into your skipper Stark, were getting out of here. Takeshi picked up the launch controls as he sent the Inferno shooting into the door and BANG!!!!
The hole was large as the current of space picked up the door's wreckage and various equipment. Takeshi and Stark flew out and away from the SSS.
Takeshi was curious, "Right, what now?"
============================ OCC: Sorry bout the explosion. XP. And if I got anyones character wrong.

A bell rang in the engineering deck. Ricky swung around and stared at the display. The landing bay had been blown open! He punched into a computer and loaded up a targeting display. The exterior view of the landing bay was brought up with unusual crosshairs lying dead centre. A set of grappling arms grabbed the door remains and drag it back into place.
“Computer, launch all engineering drones.” The Commander ordered “Have them converge on landing doors exterior and repair it.” He turned to an insubordinate and stated “If you could ensure an engineering team is suited and fixing the landing bay doors, please. I would dearly classify it as a priority.”
Jones tapped into radio communications and set up an audio communication between the ship and skippers, only to hear a communication between them. "Right, what now?" said Takeshi loud and clear. Richard picked up his mike and stated bluntly “Now you both die trapped in a very large metal coffin. I was draining the skippers fuel tanks when you came in. It seemed a very sensible course of action, what with a very large explosive nearby and no more planned flights. So when considering your next move consider the fact that you’ll be lucky to have enough fuel to escape Sudriana’s weapon’s range. let alone fly to Nebutra. If you survive, there's one thing I hope you learn from this- Think before you leap. ” He held the mike down waiting for a response.

Tom cursed under his breath. He thought expletives only. Eventually he raised the skipper's microphone to his mouth. "We'll come quietly..." he started. "What? No! Tom, please..." Kitagawa's voice echoed through the speakers. Stark ignored him. "You know, Jones, as well as I do that this was a futile attempt at freedom. What odds, a whole ship against a few dissenters? No, we will return. I expect there to be a court-marshal." Jones smiled. "Good man, Commander. Wittmann will be waiting for both of you in the landing dock." He flicked communicatios closed, and opened another channel. "Commodore Hughes?" "Yes?" "Tech-Commander Jones here. They're coming back." "Who are?" "Stark and Kitagawa." "Hmph. Didn't know they'd left." "Yes, it was all just now, Sir. The large bang was the cargo doors exploding as they flew out." "Have we got someone repairing them?" "We are in the process of deploying a repair team now." "Good. I'll get Great to set up the court-marshal room. You would think Stark would have a bed there by now." "Indeed, Sir."
Stark led Kitagawa back to the SSS. Kitagawa tried to take Tom to task over his decision, but Tom knew full well that Ricky was not lying. Also, in his mind's eye this was only a scare tactic. The next part of the plan involved getting Wittmann on side. The same Wittmann was at the dock, waiting for them to arrive. Immediately they landed, he strode over to Tom's skipper, tore the door open and shouted, "You've really screwed up this time, haven't you Tom! Blowing a great big Barry hole in the cargo door? What the hell were you thinking? You can rest assured your ass is-" He stopped abruptly on looking behind himself, giving Tom the opportunity to get out of the skipper. When he did, he saw exactly what Wittmann was looking at. Another Commander Tom Stark. "Hello, Tom." Doe said simply.

OCC: Sorry, gotta get on with Takeshi's plot, so I must bid adeu:P ==============================================
Takeshi saw the group waiting for him and Stark, he knew this kinda s*** would happen. He knew Stark may go back on his word...he had no help, his reapers were dead. "What can I do!?!" he thought with anger. No Reapers, no equipment. Hughes and a bridgade of Troopers walked in, guns on Stark and Himself, dammnit...
Hughes: Well. Both of you. Nothing but Trash! Court Marshal maybe but don't think I wouldn't shoot you right now!
Stark and Kitagawa looked, this was Hughes way of acting tough. "Think Takeshi...god dammit think..."
Suddenlly, a flashback to the trip to Nebutrania...
"Aggresive sir?" "Thats right. So I packed you and the boys little treats in your compartments, take them once we reach the capital." "Right away Sir"
Jester...thought Takeshi. "Treat...THATS IT! Hell! That was it! Time to get out of here!" he said to himself.
Takeshi spotted the Reaper ship, the Joker, Jester's vessel he forgotten to take, instead he took a skipper, not smart. Takeshi spoke up.
"Hughes. Now that we are in your hands I may say, my LT, Jester, he has...well..."
Hughes: Speak Kitagawa! "A Bomb..." Hughes: What!? Jones: Bullshit Wittmann: He's lying Hughes: Wait, these Reapers...they must have! "Sir, I'd rather be treated a murder for your men then a genocide of everyone. Please, the Joker has it."
Well, Wittmann and Jones held their guns right on Kitagawa, keeping the others on Stark. Takeshi and Hughes walked over and Takeshi went into the cargo hold. There it was...the detonator and a ST-66 Handgun and a AR-54 Rifle. Hughes waited as Jones and Wittmann walked over. Suddenlly...
"FREEZE! BOTH OF YOU!"
Caught of guard. Takeshi pulled the handgun and pulled it on Hughes, the royal majesty, Hughes. Takeshi pulled the detonator.
Hughes: What the hell is this Kitagawa!? Wittmann: Drop it! "You drop it Witty! One move your droids got another mess to clean!" Jones and Wittmann stood firm and kept their guns on. "You have 10 seconds before I blow out this Station and your Commadore's brains trooper..."
Well, the station would be in panic...so the two lowered as Takeshi pointed at Stark.
"Bring Stark over here. NOW!" Two guards carefully pushed Stark towards the JOKER, as Takeshi tossed him the Handgun. "Listen well Loyalist trash! Time to play a game, Jester's game. When this detonator goes off, a bomb in the engine room will begin. 5 Minutes. Another in the Bridge, this one 4. Another in the Weapons and Armory, all those explosives. This being 3...then another in the Dorms...and all those little rec rooms...these being two. Pick wisely scum...you have only a small time before Jester gets to laugh..."
Takeshi and Stark looked at Hughes.
"Another thing, Mr. Commodore. Your dinner last week...Salad and Nebutrainian Meat?"
Hughes: What of it?! "Nothing, but the final bomb which will go in 1 Minute.
Stares. The Reapers had this planned? "Lets just say Radar can cook...now. Time to play!!"
Wittmann and Jones fired...Stark took two hits to the leg but rushed. Takeshi shot, killing a soldier then jumped into the Joker. No way that Jones touched this. He looked, no mods or tricks, not with the SSS system. He opened the cockpit as Takeshi saw Wittmann's pet ROSIE rush out and bite down on Stark's leg, he was pinned.
Stark: DAMN IT! KITAGAWA! "Sorry Starky, but I don't give in...like you..."
Takeshi took off as his voice BOOMED over the SSS speakers. "Hello Citizens! Today were going to play a game of find the bomb. Play fair!"
Takeshi detonated the detonator...now it was up to Wittmann and Jones.
Jones: ALL BD TEAMS! HEAD FOR THE BOMB LOCATIONS NOW! WITTMANN WITH ME! HUGHES NEEDS HELP! (OCC: Lol caps)
* * *
Meanwhile, Takeshi was far out of range of the SSS' guns as he looked at the picture Jester had in his cockpit. One of his girl, another of all the Reapers.
"No worries my friend, your game is being played."
Takeshi had no choice, low on fuel. Damn, no foubt Jones siphoned some. He had no choic....
Nebutrania...again.
================= OCC: Ok, sorry if this was rushed and I will rewrite this if need be. But I have plans for Takeshi so I figured I should start. Xo

I think it's time for LOG 2
It seems pretty obvious what'll be the start up for the storyline, but I'll try and make it simple for you all, and elaborate on what may happen:
INFERNO [aka LOG 2]
Takeshi will try to flee from the SSS. Stark is being taken to questioning, but is willing to form an alliance with the SSS crew to prevent the bombs wreaking havoc across the Sudriana. However, Hughes, Great and Jones aren't sure to trust him, but Wittmann is tempted by his offer, and accepts his help. Great and Jones sets chase after Takeshi in tactically adapted Skippers*. Stark begin helping with the bomb disposal, but he may have a few terms of his own to be met!
* The SSS has a few tactical skippers for use in emergency, often in battle or 'red alert' situations of a more dangerous and serious type. Personally, I'd like Great's tactical skipper to be called PROTEUS.
Who ever wants to kick off, feel free, but I'd rather like to take a back seat at the moment and let the current action continue.
Some parts of the storyline have been left rather vague, and this is intentional. It's an RPG, so I'm trying to leave it up to you guys as much as I can. Besides, you know the course you'd prefer your character to take and most likely have ideas of your own.
Of course, I may have left out some characters, but the storyline above is intended to help continue the storylines of more immediate situations. Remember, theses episodes are also so that certain characters can have a more predominant role, so next time round your character may have a larger part to play. However all participants should feel free to take part! Of course, even you could set the storyline when the time comes after we feel INFERNO / LOG 2 has reached an adequete length and conclusion/cliffhanger.
Hope everything here is OK. Looking forward to reading the rest.

OCC: Looks awesome EdwardtheGreat but you left out one thing:P
- Theres a bomb in Hughes chest:P
Other than that, i'll make a simple start. ============================ Takeshi saw Nebutrania, only chance. He pushed down landing procedures as he heard the alarm, two Skippers, new class, now called PROTEUS class fighters, bearing on him. Takeshi smirked.
"Reaper technology will always surpass."
Takeshi pressed a button as two Scout Droids popped out the back of the JOKER. They opened as two mini guns and a small missile pack appeared as they went off, sheilds up. At this point the Joker's fuel was dead and he had enough to land near the outskirts of the capital, where he lost his 20 Reapers. Before landing, he made a call to Reaper HQ on earth.
"This is Lieutenant Kitagawa, come in" Spade: This is Private Spade go ahead "Spade, the project, is it ready?" Spade: Yes sir, all ships have disembarked and we are in jump. Your location? "Nebutrania, Captial City. Deploy ALL fighters when arriving, the Sudriana won't take kindly to your presence, we've been discovered." Spade: Yes sir!
Takeshi saw his two droids, they began swiftly moving around the two PROTEUS fighters and they kept them at hand, for a while anyways.
"Nebutraina...the Reapers...the Nebutranians...they'll work as well.
Takeshi was now in the atmosphere, he landed just on the outskirts. A small waterfall cave. He geared up and went for the Capital.

Stark rolled over. He wasn't going to get any sleep, though. Wittmann loomed at his door. "Get up, Tom." "Don't wanna, Mick." Stark mumbled. Wittmann let it slide this time. "Court-marshal's in ten minutes." "What? Is that the time? Barry heck..." Stark leapt out of bed and started pulling on his tunic. Wittmann watched, impassive. When he was ready, Stark held his arm out for the cuffs. Wittmann attached them as per procedure, and led him to the dock.
Hughes was there. "Commander Tom Stark, you are hereby charged with desertion, the murder of 20 Reapers and generally being a pain in the backside. How do you plead?" "Not guilty." "Not guilty?" Hughes raised his eyebrows. "Well," Tom elaborated, "Not guilty of the desertion and murders. I am a pain in the backside though." He chanced a grin. Hughes didn't return the smile. "OK Tom, let's make this quick. Where's your defence counsel?" "Look, Commodore, I've gone through every barry counsel on this ship three times over. You couldn't find one who'd be willing to have me as a client anymore. I'm defending myself." Highes grunted. "Prosecution, begin your case."
As the case rolled on, Stark thought of Kitagawa, the loss of the Reapers, the Nebutrans - even John Doe, who had disguised himself as Tom for a short while. Why? He didn't know. He considered that it may have been a masking to make it appear as though he was still on the ship, rather than out in the great darkness. Speaking of which, it was probably a good thing Kitagawa was indeed AWOL, as his emotional state would not have helped his defence in the slightest.
"I now call to the stand the defendant, Commander Tom Stark."
Tom sighed, stood, and made his way to the witness stand.

Kitagawa sighed. Nebutrainia's forests were beautiful, but how can one enjoy a planet were one's 20 best friends were murdered. He chuckled and clicked the detonator...defused. There were no bombs, only a guise to permit Takeshi's escape. Now the Reapers were on there way, he thought of Stark, court martial no doubt.
Takeshi hid the Joker and made his way towards the captial, there were Nebutranians everywhere, and they were armed. He hid as he spotted some Skippers, the ones some of the Reapers landed earlier in the mission. He saw the Nebutranians send out scouts. They knew he was here. He grasped his comm and called Spade again.
"Spade, how are we?" "We are 20 minutes from Nebutrainia sir!" "Good, keep cloaked, keep a low profile, how many ships?" "The ordered amount sir!" "Excellent. Once your here, bombard the Capital..." "Sir?" "I'll be out of ranger, Sector 7 Area 335" "Copy Sir, shall we send a boat?" 'Yeah, and some fuel, I want the Joker fueled, I'm gonna retrieve the body of Jester, get the Surgeons ready..." "Yes Sir"
Takeshi took out his rifle and ran into the city, time to find Jester...

"...Very well. You have my word!" promised Commadore Hughes. This was directed at Stark, standing in the dock. Stark was calmly led out of the dock by Wittmann's security officers. Wittmann himself stayed behind. "Keep him outside. And don't let your eyes off him," called Wittmann. "Are you sure we can trust Stark? We can even be 100% sure there are any bombs!" grumbled Hughes to Wittmann. "If your life is at risk, Sir, then I think we have to. Takeshi claimed that... well, he pretty much has a bomb inside you, Sir!" responded Wittmann. "I see your point. But I have to agree with what Great and Jones said before they pursued Kitagawa. We can't absolutely trust him," warned the Commadore. "You gave him your word. We won't keep him in the brig if he helps us diffuse these bombs. We need his help," said Wittmann, and he turned around, and exited the dock. Outside, Stark was in cuffs surrounded by a good number of security officers from one of Wittmann's teams. "I can take it from here," said Wittmann. Wittmann, his head directed at the floor, glanced at Stark, without moving his head. Stark just smiled slightly deviously. Wittmann could see, with the anger in his eyes, the cunning behind that smile, and considered the possibility he had made a perilous mistake in trusting Stark when he stood in that dock.
The two tactical Proteus-class tactical skippers zoomed towards the surface. "I can't find the Jester. Too many sensor echos and the like," grumbled Great. "It'll be that spacial disturbance," reported Jones. "I don't think we'll find the Jester, not in this." "Even these new modified tactical sensors are having a hard time, I must admit. I don't think we should give up though. I'll find the Jester if I have to do it with my own eyes!" declared Great. Then suddenly, the console in front of him began beeping. "You getting this Jones?" cried Great. "Sure am, Edward. Lifesigns!" responded Jones in a surprised tone. "Either there's a glitch in our sensors, or..." Great trailed off. "...they're human," Ricky finished for him. "We'd better report back to the Sudriana," exclaimed Great. "This is Sudriana Proteus-class tactical skippers ELITE and PHOENIX to Sudriana. Come in, Sudriana..."
"So... do you know what you're doing?" asked Wittmann. "Sure diffuse the bombs. The Commadore should be fine now, after what they did to him in medical, but erm... quite distusting we won't talk about that! So now the rec rooms and the dorm, but we don't have long," replied Stark. "Well your trick with the shields seems to be working. Adapting them so that only specific signal frequencies can get through. Although, it's only working as long as Kitagawa isn't remodulating his frequency constantly, in which case, bit by bit, that countdown is going down, but at a reduced rate," babbled Wittmann. "So if you could hurry up with diffusing those things." "You don't get it do you?" chuckled Stark. "I'm sorry?" questionned Wittmann. "You haven't figured it out yet, have you?" asked Stark. "I've got no time for games, mate. I just don't want to get blown up here!" worried Wittmann. "There aren't gonna be any bombs! The Jester gets to laugh? Come on, I didn't think you'd fall for that. Kitagawa wouldn't dare detonate the bombs. We may be rebels, but we're not out to kill out crewmates. He won't even blow any of the bombs in the Inferno!" explained Stark. "But the Inferno is rigged to blow. It should be anyway. It's packed with explosives. Are you sure Kitagawa was having us on?" raged Wittmann. "Trust me," smirked Stark with that same look again. "Now, onto more serious matters. You know what I have to say to you... about that propostion!"

Kitagawa spotted the two elite skippers flying over the city. He had tapped into the SSS comm and when he heard those words "There Human", he shrunk. It can't be, Reapers, REAPERS!!
Takeshi spotted a Nebutrainian Comm Station, he needed to get those damned loyalists away from the planet. He went inside and shot the Nebutrainian dead. He picked up the comm and spoke over the comm system over the city using a voice modulatar developed by Radar.
"Ki laka no ma shan! do xillo khan da! (Humans in the air! Scramble all fighters!" It worked. A couple dozen Nebutranian Fighters deployed and went after the Skippers. Takeshi now had his mission, in 18 minutes the Reapers would arrive and now there were Reapers still alive, he went into the city, looking sharply around as the Nebutranians went after the Sudriana Fighters.

"We've already taken enough damage from those cursed droids, are you sure we should get closer?" asked Jones, in the Phoenix. "Well, I'm going to!" exclaimed Great. "There's gotta be Reapers down there! We've gotta help them!" Suddenly, the console infront of Great crackled. "This is Sudriana come in," replied the communications chief. "Tell the Commadore. There are human lifesigns down here! I repeat... Human!" cried Great. He flew the Elite closer to the surface, and the Phoenix followed. Soon both of the Proteus-class skippers were whooshing lower to the ground. Suddenly there was a shrill buzzing over the loudspeakers in and around the city. Ki laka no ma shan! do xillo khan da! "Is it or me or does that sound like Kitagawa?" asked Ricky. "He must be close!" muttered Great. Then suddenly... BANG! Some Nebutranian Fighters were whirring slowly up from the ground, and was beginning to persue the skippers. "Can't stay here!" called Jones, and he swooped his craft upwards. Great tried to follow suit. BANG! Another hit... sparks flying. Great returned fire. One of the Nebutranian fighters were hit. Smoke poured from the aft of the vessel, as it plummeted to the surface. Great did not see it again after that. He was too preoccupied with the five other Fighters now surrounding him. Great went down, and spun to the port until he was facing the other way, and tried going back on himself. One of the Fighters had seen this coming, and had maneuvered similarly, still within weapons ranger of Great's Elite. Another hit! Explosions tore through the side of the vessel. Great fought for control. "COME ON!" he strained. "Sudriana. This is the Elite. Require assistance!" Great yelled. Suddenly, there was an almighty flash. The ship following the Elite had been just in front of him, and above his skipper. Now it had disappeared, thanks to the Sudriana's mighty weapons. The other four Nebutranian Fighters were still hot on Great's tail, however. "I'm going down!" announced Great, over the communication. He tried to slow down, rather successfully, but he was still inching closer to the surface. Too late! Great's vessel smashed through some top soil causing it to cascade over the ground having shot through the air. Some of it landed on the Elite, too. Great's Proteus-class skipper had now stopped. He battled to get it to whine into life again. At last, the console came into life again, and the console lit up like the most wonderful Christmas lights Great had ever seen, and there was a joyous tittering of beeps and boops from the stations around him. Great lifted up the Eilte, and began maneuvering it towards the air again. Another blinding shot from the Sudriana took care of another Nebutranian Fighter. As he began to go skyward, Great noticed a man, with his arms spread out. It was Jester! Great looked on, shocked, but he knew he couldn't land. Another shot was fired by a Fighter, too close for comfort! Great's craft whined as it sped up towards the Sudriana once again.

Jester waved and waved but Great's craft sped off towards the Sudriana. Jester sighed. "Damn! So much for help!" "Jester?"
Jester spun to see Takeshi, Takeshi dropped his guns as he hugged his brother in arms. "Damnit soldier! You don't die then come back to life!" "Sorry Sir, Reaper armor, we are super soldiers after all!" "Damn good to see you Jester, the Joker's in the forest and the SSS has probablly branded me a traitor..." "You did it?!" "Yeah, last measure, Stark's also a traitor, a rebel I think." "Takeshi, what do we do now?" "Anyone else alive?" "Radar, Punch, Smiley and Bricks, all downstairs." "Thank god, rally everyone, we need to get out of the city now!!" "Why?!" "The Reaper 2000 Project, it's coming here to bombard the capital." "The...you mean?!" "Yes Jester, it is time. Rally the troops..."
Takeshi had an idea. He grabbed his voice mod and spoke through the hacked speakers once more.
"Kal isha dad no konn omno, killik ah an kon non sho kolaz no brot, she kan no do kolo mo sasarak!" (The Humans are fleeing, they are responsible, which means we must finish this fight!)
"No killoik on a shon!" (Deploy all Fighters and Ships!)
As the Reapers reunited, they saw the Nebutrainian Fighters and Ships rise from the City towards the SSS. All those lives...a pity.
"Well Kitagawa, or, Reaper, we have done it!" "Yes Jester, now gentlemen....PREPARE FOR WAR!"

OOC: Stop trying to get Wittmann to rebel so early on. SOMETHING will happen with regards to Wittmann but not right this minute! >:(
Also remember Wittmann's dog follows him around ________________________________________________________
Wittmann as soon as Stark had started to speak had felt the grip of the second nightmare start to tug at his throat
"Not now..... ....
....Right next bomb"
"why?" Questioned Stark
"because of.........last time...Bugger. Ive said too much"
opening the com device on his wrist Wittmann started to move toward the next bomb site
"Drones command: hunter mode!"
Wittmann: "that's funny...." Stark: "hmmm?" Wittmann: "Drones aren't responding. I'll ask 'Ricky' when I'm not trying to save all of our hides"
Wittmann started to work on the next bomb, Cutting wires and sweating in the same measures

Takeshi was glad to see that 5 Reapers survived. He had asked about the others but no luck. Soon, Radar had a new direct link towards the Sudriana...time for another message.
*** On the SSS, Wittmann was working away at getting the bombs, Hughes had the Station under control and Ricky and Great had just landed when...
"Ladies and Gentlemen!"
It was Takeshi, over the SSS loudspeakers.
"Hughes, the bombs have been disabled because you and everyone else DYING would be to...tragic. In fact, I wanted all of you Loyalist garbage to feel what I went through. The next step of the game, add some new players!"
Hughes was confused, then looked out the Bridge, the Nebutrainian Fleet!
"I have...well, let out the dogs to say the least. The Nebutrainians are eager to get some...playtime..."
Hughes spoke up. "Why do this Kitagawa!?"
"WHY!? Because I can! We Reapers have been HUMAN's pets for too long! Starting with mankinds greatest project, we will start a revoloution. We are bred to be perfect and pure, but we no what we have done wrong. Soon, all of mankind will suffer...starting with you and everyone on your precious station!"
Hughes was startled. Reapers...wanting revenge?
"Now Hughes, and everyone on board. The bombs may be done, but the Nebutranians are ready to board and tear apart everyone on board. After what I've seen them do, there more vicious then stated in your...reports...have fun everyone!"
Takeshi signed off. Now, time for phase 2, in case the Nebutrainians failed...

Prior to landing :
Richard watched as the Elite swung violently in alternate directions. He found himself saying "Nice one, antagonise them, why don't you?" Jones tapped into the navigation console and made the most direct full speed course to the Sudriana. The back of the skipper had multiple explosions as a few rounds made contact. “Oi!” Ricky complained “I’ve got to fix these later!” He launched himself towards the ceiling mounted engine and pulled down two levers. Suddenly, the entire ship went black.
The fighters then moved away. “Just as I suspected, they were never told to destroy us.” The commander gloated “Now all I have to do is drift back to Sudriana and pull these levers back to restore power.”
Richard thought it was over when he had landed but the speakers had other ideas. "Ladies and Gentlemen!" was broadcast as he tapped into the panel to record it. Jones and Great agreed the bridge would be a wise place to be at this point.
As they walked on board the deck, the broadcast has just ceased. Jones bluntely stated “Do not bother with the Nebutran Fighters. They will know the radiation from our engines is lethal. If the ship gets destroyed, all life in this system will die. I think Mr Takeshi is turning into a one trick pony, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Nebutrans were already onto him.”

Takeshi and his Reapers were on the move. They had reached the Capital building. Takeshi got word the Reapers from earth would be a little late so they decided to check out why the Nebutrainians were acting so aggressive. Once inside, the 5 Reapers made defensive positions as Takeshi hacked their data. Nothing, except for... "Jester, look at this" Jester walked towards the Computer. "What is it?" "Look at this, 254 Million Nebutrainians killed in an unknown bombing" "Unknown?" "Can't tell, but 254 Mill, thats alot." Jester pondered. When they found a horrific article. "My god, look at this." said Takeshi, with a stare All the Reapers watched as Takeshi put the article on the main screen. "Those 254 Million Nebutrainians? All Women and Children..." "My god...,that explains why all the Nebutrainians are men" "Sir?" said Radar. "Yes Private?" "Permission to unveil plot sir!" "Granted, well?" "Sir, make an alliance with the race and assist in taking the Sudriana" "Yes...two against one...we can win, indefinetly!" Jester smirked. "It's time, isn't it sir?" "Yes Reapers, War, against Humans! Too your ships!" All the Reapers ran to their ships, Takeshi taking the Jester and the others taking elite nebutrainian fighters. They made it to space where they saw Nebutrainian fighters be destroyed by the SSS, not guns though, the Radiation. Takeshi made quick word with the Nebutrainian Fleet. "Kala no kon ah la shalak kan!" (Call off your ships!) Then the reply. *** Brackets means talking in Nebutrainian Neb Leader: (Identify yourself!) Takeshi: (We are the Reapers, from earth, but we are not Human) Neb Leader: (Lies! Your all scum! Murderers!) Takeshi: (We were the ones on your planet before! You killed my men!) Neb Leader: (Then why contact us and not kill us!) Takeshi: (Because like you we suffered millions of loss...) Neb Leader: (You...know?) Takeshi: (Yes, and we know whos responsible...) Neb Leader and Takeshi: (Humans!) Takeshi: (I propose an alliance, Reapers and Nebutrainians! Working as one, then once the Sudriana is gone, millions of races will join against humans!) Neb Leader: (A new order!) Takeshi: (We have ships on the way, they will deal with the defenses. Get landing parties ready, everyone on board will soon die!) At that moment, jumpspace opened, dozens of Reaper Captial Ships emerged. Spade lead the charge. Spade: We are ready sir! Takeshi made on final broadcast to the Sudriana. Takeshi (Sudriana Loudspeakers): THIS IS TO ALL ON THE SUDIRANA, NOW YOU FIGHT REAPERS AND NEBUTRAINIANS. PREPARE TO BE BOARDED HUMANS! Takeshi smirked as his large Reaper ships sent out hundreds of Reaper fighters, the Sudriana was surrounded as the Reaper and Neb ships fired, destroying a couple turrets and alot of exhaust ports. The Boarding ships went for the hangars, time for WAR! ============================== OCC: Sorry, very long. I'm setting it up because I wanted Takeshi to be a big villan, plus he needs to die. Wanted to get onto a new plot I reckon, get the Reapers out of the way. PM me with any concerns.

Richard stared at the wall of his office. He could recall the original Reaper project. His presence was at one of its earliest meetings - a military finance meeting. The proposal sent a chill down the back of his spine. It still does.
Jones wasn’t involved with the actual project. In fact he was with the Engineering Corps’ robotics division bidding for the same contract. A contract to create a disposable army - of sorts. Obviously, the engineering bid was for robotic drones, which Ricky later cannibalised into the Sudriana drones.
The original Reaper project was much more sinister. The use of reanimated cadavers, supplemented by chemical stimulants and genetic alterations was on the table. The ‘dead’ human soldiers would be taken for ‘upgrading’ to the point where they only resembled a human by look alone. The Reaper project was taken up, as it was the cheapest proposal at the time.
Not towards the end, though, the Engineering Corps were against the mass desecration of corpses and refused their expertise, resulting in a massive fee for outside engineering services. The military called it sour grapes at the time. Now of course the Reapers had come to destroy humanity. The military really had reaped what they had sown.
============================== OOC: Sorry Cranky, I know the Reapers are kind of your NPCs but I’m finding it rather hard to believe someone who looks human enough to the Nebutrans without actually being one. A back story like this sounded too good to miss. I would point out I left dead as a disambiguation - they could have converted living people also.

The bombs in the dorm and the rec rooms had all been safely deactivated. Rosie limped alongside Wittmann as he scurried to the bomb. He was flying along. He was quite proud of himself by now. "I should get a medal for this!" he bragged. Rosie barked cheerfully, despite the damage she had sustained throughout the day. Wittmann, Stark and Rosie were working in the Armoury now. "One spark from this lot, and KABOOM!" stated Stark to Wittmann in a moking manner. "No pressure on you, there!" Wittmann wiped his brow. "No pressure," he muttered under his breath. "Give it a break! By the way, you've said that maybe four or five times now. Besides, you're supposed to helping." "The bomb disposal teams on the bridge and in the engine room should be done now. And... I've barely used that joke three times! Relax!" remarked Stark. "It's the barry Inferno you should be worried about!" "What?" puzzled Wittmann, stopping for a moment to look at Stark. On the bridge, the bomb disposal team had indeed done and were moving out. "We have a breach!" cried Great. "Some minor weapon's fire has punctured one of engines. Radiation is seeping out. Sir, it's leathel!" The Commadore knew this. "Hail the Nebutrans!" demanded Hughes. "Channel open. All frequencies..." updated Great. "Nebutrainian ships. Retreat! For your own sake. One of your shots has slightly punctured our hull. It's not enough to severely damage our vessel, but leathel radiation is leaking. You'll all be killed. We have no quarrel with you, Nebutrans!" said Hughes. "(You bombed our planet. Women and children slaughtered. You showed no mercy. Neither shall we. We shall perish if it means your destruction)" echoed the reply over the comms speaker in the bridge. "Transmission ended!" murmured Great frozen at the spot. "You know what this means, Great!" cried Hughes, spinning around to face the Colonel. "At your post. Get all tactical officers in their places!" "At once, Sir!" cried the Colonel. He grabbed the mike over near his console. (Intercom) Chief of Tactical Colonel Great would like to say *Bzz* All tactical officers to your posts. Battle stations. I repeat battle stations. Enemy target: Nebutran fighters. Nebutrans! *Bzz* Thank you for listening! *Bing boog* "What do you mean? The Inferno is no immediate threat. The shield frequency remodulation means no signal can get through to start the detonation! Besides Kitagawa said he wasn't going to activate the bombs. We're just doing this as a precaution. He could change his mind, plus a bomb is a bomb. It's dangerous enough as it is here and now. Those fighters are on their way to board the Sudriana now!" yelled Wittmann. "No signal can get through the shields. Correct, Mr Wittmann! But what if the transmission was inside the shields?" he asked, holding up his own detonator. "You!" gasped Wittman. "Oh, that's right. Now I want you to open a channel to Hughes. I have some demands I'd like to be met," uttered Stark. ================================================================ Believe it or not, but we've already written enough for LOG 2. Next, LOG 3. I'll let someone else decide what the synopsis can be Although, I quite fancy Almighty_CRJ's term of REAP WHAT YOU SOW as a title. Nicholas

REAP WHAT YOU SOW [aka LOG 3]
The Sudriana is damaged and under attack by Nebutranian and reaper troops
Inside the ship the power struggle is reigniting and the main weapons are being prepped
As heavy fighting breaks out, the SSS rally's its self like a slumbering giant to Fight. Fight those who would destroy or capture her!
The final question? is someone abroad or not abroad the SSS about to die.....
