T.R.S. Normandy-mess hall

Didymus was caught off-guard by Coop's yank, and may have been about to hit him in "self-defense", but if so, he caught himself. After taking a seat, he addressed Kiva.

"We're waiting for the other pilots here on the Normandy. One goes by the name of "Sama", he's a captain, and was a squadmate of mine out there. The other answers to the name of "Seepock", and he was held captive aboard that robot frigate, and he's been sent to a medical ship to see if there's anything wrong with him...if there is, he may not be coming. Anyway, once at least Sama gets here, and we get news on Seepock, if nothing else, we'll have dinner." he paused.

"So..." he said. "...I take it you're not from around here," he said, as he had read the briefing sent to him on them. "is there anything you don't know you'd like cleared up?" he asked.

"Man, hope that guy's okay," Coop said, scratching his head, "I can't think of anything to ask...Oh! Do you guys have freaky weird aliens too? I have to fight a bunch back home."

Meanwhile, Kiva was conversing with Rachel over the history of their respective worlds/universes, which, Spork here thinks doesn't really need to be actually said...Right Vidit?

(As for history, it doesn't need to be said, but I've put some thought into it that I'd be glad to post. In fact, I think I will, and if you object and/or want to add input, we can do that. Anyway...)

T.R.S. Normandy mess hall

Didymus spoke in response to Coop's question.

"Well, we've various alien life that isn't sentient, like basically alien plants, animals, etc., from time to time, at least, but it's been rare enough, at least, that, well, let me put it this way: we're having chicken for dinner. but as for sentient bug-eyed men or some such, no, we haven't had any confirmed contacts of that." he said.

Meanwhile, Rachel was listening to Kiva's story of the Gloorf (is that what they're called?), attack and telling history in "this universe":

"Well..." she said. "...the colonel's a bit more into history than I am, but...the United Terran Republic had its roots in the late 21st century, where...let's see...after World War Three, the Earth was united in a federation, the United Terran Federation, and then we expanded for a couple centuries in peace, then, control of the outer colonies was getting hard with a decentralized federation, so the government was reorganized into a republic, but some people didn't like that and there was a big civil war simply known as the Republic War, in which the federation supporters were beaten by the republic supporters, and then the United Terran Republic, as our nation was renamed, expanded for another couple centuries or so in peace. Then, there were the Pirate Conflicts...Didymus served in those, they were only a little while ago...and then there's now. The U.T.R. is vast, and this rebellion we're facing only encompasses a little of its territory. Again, if you want more details, like who won WW3, or what the Pirate Conflicts were like, talk to Didymus. But yeah...humanity here hasn't had to deal with a massive alien invasion like the Gloorf...that's really awful." she said.

(Is that agreeable?)

(Sounds good Vidit!)

-Normandy Mess Hall-

"No aliens?" Coop said, "Bummer. Where we're from, there's all sorts of aliens. Some bad, though I know some good guys too."

"It seems similar to our history...Except before we were able to get past our solar system, the Gloorf attacked us..." Kiva sighed, "I was sent back in time to help stop them, but I overshot, and Coop there," she pointed towards the large man, "Found our robot that was suppose to stop them, and changed it so only he could pilot it, so I've been training him...'Cause he's going to have to be the one to save us..."

Didymus spoke, addressing Rachel.

"Rachel. You can't remember who won WW3? Come on. It was a harbinger to how human civilization as we know it developed into what it is now. Hit the textbooks sometime, Rachel. It was a very important historical event, and you should know it. But for now..." he continued. "It's actually been rather nice not having to worry about an invasion from another species. As you may have guessed, well, humanity has more or less prospered in, well, our universe. But there could be other sentient species out there in the galaxy...we haven't explored it all. And if I may ask...why have you opted to help us?" he asked.

(Psh, yah, everyone knows who won WWIII. :LOL: )

-Normandy Mess Hall-

"You guys seemed liked good guys. My gut told me to help yah guys out, and it's never wrong!" Coop grinned, patting his stomach, which gurgled again.

Jamie and Kiva exchanged looks, saying without so many words that this wasn't always true...

(Fine. I'll tell. :LOL:)

T.R.S. Normandy mess hall

Rachel somewhat smirked.

"I'll hit the textbooks, if you like, sir, but I give up. Who won WWIII?"

Didymus grinned.

"The Alliance of Democratic Nations." he said. "That's why the U.T.R.'s a democratic society with a capitalist-style economy rather than a communist dictatorship, which is what may have been formed if the so-called Pact of People's Nations won instead." he said.

(Hooray for sci-fi history!:lol:)

T.R.S. Normandy-mess hall

The door opened and in walked Sama; who'd re-docked a few minutes earlier, but had made a detour to get cleaned up before his appearance. Although his uniform was a bit disheveled, he was looking in good spirits. The battle had been insane, but it was over now. There was a happy grin on his lips.

He did have some idea that the Colonel could be upset at him for some of the earlier actions he'd taken... but he hoped that would all be water under the bridge.

Upon his arrival, he stood to one side of the room awkwardly. There were already a lot of conversations going on, and he never was any good at jumping in half-way.

???

Elsewhere, Megatron was not dead at all. His body was destroyed, but he'd broadcasts all that was his brain to a secure computer network that belonged to his employer.

In the depths of a secret installation, that employer sat in his green leather back chair, his hands pressed together. There was a grin of satisfaction on his face.

"Hah... perfect. The information I needed is well in place; and that bomb Megatron planted in the kid should buy me some time."

He leaned back. The battle had shown him a wide array of who his enemies were. Now he just needed to wait for the right time to reveal himself.

"Victor, dinner's ready." A voice called to him.

"I'll be there in a minute." He replied.

(Finally, some progress! ^_^. TSC next, Sama? Please? :LOL:)

T.R.S. Normandy-mess hall

Didymus eyed Sama as he came in.

"Sama!" he called to him. "Sit down! Join us. We were just discussing history and life in the universe as we know it. Oh, and we're having chicken for dinner. Anyway, meet our new additions, Coop, Jamie, and Kiva, who I'm told will be accompanying us on our next mission-which, by the way, is a diplomatic one to Orion. I expect you to keep procedure on it-I've already got a new hat ordered for your dress uniform-and on that note, please, next time we're in battle, don't wait so long to join it! That being said, during Megatron's attack, the way we went in, as a unit, striking in unison and overwhelming their defenses-that's what I like to see. Keep it up."

"Sir?" came another officer's voice over the intercom.

"Yes?" Didymus replied.

"Seepock had a device implanted in him...it's a timed bomb. We've been ordered to go on our mission without him."

Rachel's hand flew to her mouth when she heard that, and Didymus spoke out loud again after a few seconds.

"...has the PM-113-F been offloaded to Avalon?"

"Yes sir. We're ready to go."

"Very good. Well, the let's not keep "Old Man Sensei," as they call him, waiting. To Orion."

"Yes sir."


With that, the ship started off, and soon, was hyperspacing toward Orion.

"So, Sama, have you ever been to Orion?" he asked. "A neutral planet in our civil war." he said to Coop, Jamie, and Kiva (if she were listening).

(As soon as possible, I assure you. ^^)

T.R.S. Normandy-mess hall

Sama couldn't help but crack a grin at everything Didymus had to say. Maybe things wouldn't be as bad as he'd assumed when he first heard he was being transfered to a more militaristic role. Still, he wondered how well he could observe "proper procedure". It was something the Captain had little personal use for.

"I'll give it my best... er, sir." Sama remembered, leaning back at the table.

When word of the bomb in his fellow pilot's chest came over the intercom, Sama was visibly shaken. That kind of thing was downright low -- Megatron was worse than he'd heard about. He hoped that Seepock would be alright, assuming that the Colonel had someone on the staff who could help.

"Orion? ... ... ... Nope, can't say that rings any bells." Sama gave a large grin, but there was something fishy about his pause.

(Okay then. I can be patient.^_^)

T.R.S. Normandy mess hall

Didymus eyed Sama. His pause aroused suspicion.

"Never been there, Sama? It doesn't ring any bells? Haven't you heard of it, at least? By the way, lying to a senior officer is, in certain cases, at least, a court-martial warranting offense." he said.

Meanwhile, the cooks set their food upon the table they were at and returned to the kitchen, and the Normandy entered hyperspace, setting out towards Orion.

"Oh man..." Coop said, humbled by the news of Seepock's condition, "That's bad dude..."

-Orion-

Once the Normandy made it to Orion, two large ships would be in orbit.

One was a space station, Orion made. It had very little weapons, and mostly had recording equipment to see the weather patterns and other things needed for the farming planet.

The other was a Rebellion Ship, roughly the Normandy's equivalent, but it was waving the proverbial flag of diplomacy.

It seems both sides were here to discuss a treaty...

Sama leaned back and sighed a bit; he was becoming too transparent. Still....

"I wasn't lying, I've never been to Orion. I used to know someone who was from Orion, that's all."

Orion orbit

The Normandy's helmsman spoke up in a communique.

"Orion orbital traffic control, this is the Terran Republic Service Normandy, requesting shuttle coordinates for diplomatic envoy."he said.

???

"How's the work going on Megatron's new body?" The man known as Victor asked his butler as he prepared for the next act in his grand scheme.

"Slow, but only because we're improving the new body so much over the older model." The butler replied.

Victor sighed a bit. "Will he be ready before the Negotiations on Orion are concluded?"

"Unfortunately, no." The butler replied.

Victor was standing in his laboratory -- a dark place, full of machines of every shape and size, all covered in blinking lights and making buzzing or humming sounds. He put a hand on his head in annoyance, and then turned to his butler.

"How about my suit? Is it ready?"

The butler nodded. "Yes sir, as is the Mecha."

Victor crossed his arms. "... I didn't want to expose myself this early in the game, but I see I don't have much of a choice. Have my Mecha standing by."

"Yes sir."
