Sama was admiring the new armor and preparing his weapons, when suddenly he heard the voice and turned around to see Colette. His jaw dropped upon seeing the girl who rushed right past and grabbed the remaining piece of armor.

Having a stowaway was a problem. He simply let out a sigh, shaking his head, before turning to Hammah.

“… Your choice whether she can come or not.” Sama said, looking over to the blonde.

[Asteroid]

As they headed back to the surface, they were suddenly in for a surprise – a shuttle had already landed, and three figures were standing in front of them. Two were marines, and the third was Alouette.

Asuka suddenly growled in an audible way and jumped away from Didymus, rushing towards the Chaplain.

“der teufel wird los sein!” Asuka shouted loudly, reverting back to German as she often did when she was angry.

Alouette simply held up her hand. “I apologize, Asuka. I deceived you both, and it was not how I wanted to do things… but I’ve known you for a long time, Asuka. There are three things which have haunted you… NERV’s experiments, the Rebellion’s fall and your time infested by the Zerg. Two of those you’ve conquered over in the past, but you had always ignored NERV’s role in all of this.”

The chaplain shook her head. “What they did to you was reversed on a physical level, but you still did not confront it on an emotional level until today. I do feel bad about HOW this had to happen, but this is what had to be done.”

Asuka crossed her arms and sighed. “… Yeah, alright.”

“Well, I can't stay behind to watch her...” Hammah said, “If something does go wrong with the armor, I'm the only one who can fix them.”

He frowned, shaking his head as he looked towards Colette, “Colette, you shouldn't have come along. Mom and Dad are going to be worried.”

Still... Colette might be helpful if something happened and Hammah couldn't deal with it himself, technology speaking. She was good with machines like him too.

“Alright, I know you're going to follow anyways even if I tell you to stay on the ship,” Hammah said, deciding to be pragmatic about it, “But you follow our orders... I tell you to hide, you hide. I tell you to run, you run. I tell you to go back to the ship, you go back to the ship. Got it?”

-T.A.R.D.I.S.-

“Good evening,” Azmuth said to River as she entered the T.A.R.D.I.S., nodding politely towards the woman. She was insane... but quite clever.

“Ahhh, hello River!” The Doctor said, “Have we done, hmmm... The Colbert Mountains of the R Planet yet?”


“Come on, let's go,” Ethan said to Rica, then paused, glancing towards Rica.

“Oh, and next time you die again, try not to do so so dramatically. Almost made me sad you were gone,” Ethan said idly.

Probably the closet Rica's going to get from Ethan for “Glad you're not dead.”

“Well, this is my stop too, I need to find Jade and the others,” Ben said, stepping out of the T.A.R.D.I.S.

-Haven-

Erin was in the apartment, making cooing noises at the babies, watching over them still.



Galv walked with Melanie, putting his arm around her, smiling a little, knowing they were still alive.

“Can we go check on my grandfather and Elizabeth first?” Galv asked Melanie, “Then we can do whatever you want.”



Ben headed out, pulling out his cell phone, dialing Jade!

-Spicer Satellite-

“What the heck is that?” Jack wondered, frowning as his instruments picked up the device coming towards him.

“Jack Bots... find out what that is!” Jack ordered, and several Jack bots flew out from his base, towards the ship!

Binthu

Colette was actually pretty surprised when Hammah agreed to her coming along. The girl instantly attacked her older brother in a hog. "Oh awesome! You won't regret this at all!"

Suuuuuuuuure.

Colette was the youngest. And a girl. She was often sheltered by both her parents and her brothers. Chances like this to actually fight did not come around often.

“Alright, I know you're going to follow anyways even if I tell you to stay on the ship,” Hammah said, deciding to be pragmatic about it, “But you follow our orders... I tell you to hide, you hide. I tell you to run, you run. I tell you to go back to the ship, you go back to the ship. Got it?”

"Got it" Colette said with a nod "And don't worry brother, I may not be too strong or anything but i'm pretty much as smart as you. I can help in case anything goes wrong with the armor"

Haven

Melanie was tired but she wasn't about to tell Galv no when he asked to see his sister and grandfather. And anyways she didn't feel much a need to check on her own siblings; Kanna would do that. "Of course" she told him "I'm sure they'll be relieved we're back"

[...]

"Erin! We're back!" Jason exclaimed, spotting his wife on the couch and grinning at the sight of the young woman and their very young baby. "Hopefully they all didn't give you much trouble?"

"Oh good. The crazy one didn't kill all the children" Kanna said, walking in past Jason and over to Aaron, Adrianna and Laila. Her expression softened when she came up to them. "My darlings...Did you miss your momma?"

"Geez Kanna, we're you ever that nice to me and Mel?" Jason asked, rolling his eyes.

"I was. And then you learned how to talk and wouldn't shut up" Kanna answered, picking up Aaron.

[...]

Im gonna assume Jade is somewhere on Haven, because once again I cant remember

Jade definitely was not expecting Ben to be calling...The girl picked up her phone, hoping nothing had gone wrong. "I was starting to get worried" she said sarcastically, but with a smile. "Where are you?"

“Alright… listen, everyone. We need to work together as a team. We watch each other’s backs, and we make sure that we all come back okay.” Sama said, and he quickly opened the massive doors of the Celsius and stepped out into the dark grass of the planet’s surface.

He peered out over the rocks they had landed behind. In the distance was the mysterious bunker, and the massive cannons atop it. Sama took a deep breath. “Alright… let’s do this…”

[Haven]

“You think I’m going to die and leave you alone with Kanna? Don’t be silly.” Rica laughed, crossing his arms as he headed off towards the house.

[TARDIS]

“Oh yes, I remember that one.” River said, nodding her head. For once, she did not pull the book out from her pocket and flip through it. “For once I know exactly where we are, Doctor… and I wish I could say that was good news.”

River frowned. “… Terrible things are happening, Doctor.”

[Spicer Satellite]

The ship stopped as the Jack Bots flew towards it, and suddenly it projected a holographic sphere around the ship – and around the Jack bots. Inside the hologram, sound would travel, allowing the ship to broadcast a message.

“I’m looking for Jack Spicer. I have a business opportunity for him.”

Didymus began walking to the shuttle.

"I can't say I approve of all the deception, captain..." he said to Alouette.

"But..Asuka DID have some time to think about her past. Hopefully this does help her, and if so...thank you in advance. For the helping part."

He looked back towards Asuka, wondering if this would help at all. He figured it would need some time to seep in...

“You have my sincerest apologies for the deception, Colonel.” Alouette said, nodding her head. “If you feel the need to pursue disciplinary action, I completely understand. However, if I’d told you about my true plans ahead of time and Asuka discovered that, then her rage would be directed at you instead of me… and that would have invalidated one of the reasons why I did this.”

“Hold on... I might be able to do something...” Hammah said. He knelt down, focusing as he typed at a holographic keyboard appearing over one arm.

He was trying to access the computer systems towards the cannons, and see if he couldn't shut them down...

-Haven-

“Thank you...” Galv said. Soon, they would make it to the house, Galv opening the door.

“Galv! Melanie! What happened?” Jacob said, seeing them walk in, looking worn out, “Sit down, here, I'll make some tea.”

Elizabeth gurgled in a play pen, spotting Galv and Melanie and making grabbing motions at them.



Erin frowned at Kanna, but then perked up when Jason came towards her, holding Solanna.

“They were a little fussy, but alright,” Erin answered, “Besides dear little Solanna, Aaron was very well behaved... I swear, Adrianna and Lalia there were trying to annoy the other... I had to separate them.”

Aaron gurgled in his mother's arms, smiling at Kanna.



Ethan smirked, “She's already lost enough... Come on, I want to check up on the kids myself...”



“Hey Jade! I'm back on Haven,” Ben said, “Errr... are Kevin and Gwen with you too? Want to meet up by the Mr. Smoothie here?”

-T.A.R.D.I.S.-

“A bit of an understatement,” Azmuth commented, The Doctor frowning himself.

“You may have to narrow it done, River,” The Doctor said, “We have a few crisises right now.”

Red Lanterns, Metarex, Daleks, miscellaneous... quite a few problems.

-Spicer Satellite-

Jack paused, then keyed a transmission, sending it towards the device.

“This is Spicer... what kind of business opportunity?” he asked.

Didymus shook his head.

"I...was never fond of prioritizing results over protocol...but...ugh." he chuckled.

"We'll just see how this plays out. But don't like again, chaplain. Not to me at least. I mean, come on. Asuka's rage being directed at me is nothing new." he grinned.

"Now let's get back."

Haven

Melanie smiled at Jacob, about to plop down on the couch when she heard Elizabeth from the other side of the room. The girl tiredly went over to the baby girl, picking her up from the play pen.

"Hi there" she said softly, bringing the little girl to the couch and sitting down. She knew that her relationship with Elizabeth and the other babies was a sore spot for Galv so she was trying to extend an olive branch to the boy she loved more than anyone.

She leaned against the cushion with the baby, looking to Galv.

[...]

"Thanks for watching them all" Jason said, holding Solanna and kissing Erin quickly. "You did a really good job, despite what Kanna says"

[...]

"Yeah, i'll get them and we'll be there soon. Heh, Kevin will be disappointed you're alive; he had a bet with Gwen that you'd get thrown in space" Jade said over the phone with a laugh. "Don't worry, I sided with Gwen"

Galv smiled as Melanie picked up Elizabeth, who smiled happily and leaned into Melanie, burbling softly as the young baby started to fall asleep.

“I'm glad Elizabeth likes you...” Galv said, sitting next to Melanie, letting her lean into him if she wanted. He was feeling very tired.



Erin smiled, “Thank you... We should head home now though. I'm feeling a little worn out after watching all of them.”



Ben laughed as well, “Well that's good! Heck, even if I was thrown into space, I bet I'd be okay. I'll see you soon!”

Ben then headed towards the local Mr. Smoothie.

[Somewhere in the Lagoon Nebula]

Amongst the gas clouds of the Lagoon Nebula, there was a completely different sort of events in progress. Two ships, one a cruiser-class yacht, the other a corvette-class warship, floated side by side, both in perfect alignment with one another.

The cruiser-class ship was dark, many holes in the hull sparking and blinking as light flickered on and off, electrical circuits sparked and shortened. Debris floated around the ship, a definite testament to the damage it has undergone. The engines were off, the thrusters dark, and one of the main thrusters missing completely.

The other ship was also dark, but not because of any lack of lighting. It was almost completely pitch-black, with only faint red outlines and lights here and there, the entire ship shaped almost like a fish that had only its spine left directly in the middle. Numerous fins protrudes from its main fuselage, and a faint green field flared every now and then as small stones and debris impacted some form of shield around it.

A few minutes passed in total silence, and then a team of dots flew out of the broken cruise ship. It was a team of men, dressed in space dark space suits, carrying with them several large crates, making their way to the ship that was shaped like a fish. They entered through an opening that slid open for them, dragging the crates through the opening after them, and closing the seals behind them.

----------------------------------

[Red Crow Bridge]

A man sat in the central control chair of the bridge, lazily scrolling through several holographic screens in the red-backlit darkness of the section of the bridge he was in. Browsing through the files, the man finally let out an annoyed sigh and closed the screens down, settling further into the command chair, just staring forward blankly, thinking.

The door to the bridge opened, and a bigger, muscular figure stepped through, rubbing its arm.

"God-damn guards... Captain, we got the cargo."

The man who was called the captain snorted, replying with a raspy voice.

"Of course you got the cargo. Did you find what we wanted?"

The man shook his head. "The one thing we didn't find captain. It wasn't on board."

The captain swore under his breath, bringing up the screens again and beginning to list through them. "Are you sure? The informant I had was undeniable, and wouldn't be wrong if he knows what's good for him." He continued to flip through the pages, searching for something, and looking more and more annoyed that he didn't find it.

The other man shrugged. "It wasn't there. I don't know who your informant was, captain, but the Map wasn't anywhere on the ship. We've looked through everything, interrogated the personnel, nothing."

"That son of a B*TCH!!!" The captain slammed his fist down on the control board next to him in frustration. "He'll pay for this."

He sagged in the chair, putting his hands together in thought for a few seconds, before waving his hand at the other occupant of the bridge. "Get the crew patched up, get the engies to work on the drives, load up that ship with enough explosives to turn it into dust... And patch me through to Station Zeta." He stood up, cracking his knuckles. "Tell them to keep that rat Yarkin behind the bars. I want to hang him by his entrails myself."

The other man saluted, snapped out a "Yes, captain!", and headed right out the door, leaving the captain to his thoughts...

[Binthu]

The cannons soon responded to Hammah’s hacking attempts and they shut down, lowering slightly and the lights blinking on them vanished. Sama grinned and stood up, brushing some dirt from the legs of his armor.

“Excellent! You’re a useful guy, Hammah! Okay… let’s get in there and get to the bottom of these Cerberus guys… think you can hack that door open, too?”

[Haven]

At the local Mr, Smoothie, Kevin soon arrived, presumably along with Jade and Gwen. He sighed and leaned against the counter, waiting for Ben to show up.

[TRS Crusader]

Soon, the shuttle reattached to the main ship. A very tired Asuka stepped out of the airlock with a sigh, leaning against the wall.

[Spicer Satellite]

The probe soon broadcasted a response, in the form of a recording.

“Hello Mr. Spicer. My name is Azula Veidt. I’ve heard of you, your genius is quite renowned. I am putting together a team of operatives for a most important undertaking, and I’m officially inviting you to join us. You will be compensated most generously for your time.”

What the recording didn’t mention is what would happen if Jack said no…

[Lagoon Nebula]

A similar probe to the one that approached Spicer, soon approached the ship. This probe was larger, and came encased in a powerful protective shield. The rumors about this pirate captain were well known, and Azula had to insure the probe reached its destination intact.

It broadcast out a beam of red energy – the same energy used by the Red Lantern Corps – and as it washed over the ship, a message would be broadcast to everyone aboard.

“Good evening. My name is Azula Veidt. I’ve heard stories about a man called Thevyn, and I seek to hire him. I am putting together a team of specialists in various fields for an important task… and I want you involved. I’d like you to meet me at the follow coordinates at the time and date specified to hear my offer. Even if you decline, you will be well compensated for your time.”

It followed with the location of an orbital satellite and instructions on how to reach it.

[TARDIS]

“Oh, Doctor, if only you knew.” River shook her head sadly. “A great many of your problems are connected… or at least, they will be.”

The time traveler sighed, slumping her shoulders as she looked away from The Doctor. “There is a human at the center of it all. He’s a most meddlesome man, constantly getting involved in events that shape the galaxy, all the while going by a moniker instead of his real name… except he actually keeps a low profile.”

River couldn’t help but make the small joke, but even as a faint smile crossed her face, it was clear that this actually did have her worried. “He’s called the Illusive Man… and he’s about to set into motion a series of events that will threaten, well, everything.”

[Somewhere in the Lagoon Nebula]

The captain smurf had been stewing and seething ever since he found out that he'd been misguided was on his feet the moment the message broadcast began. He did listen to it, but he brought up every screen he could, watching the probe approach on his long-range scanners, but scowling as the message finished running through the coordinates.

"How the..."

He continued typing, before slamming the control board again, and bringing up the comm system.

"Alright, you lot! What the HELL happened to the ship's psi-shields?"

A second later, a reply came over the comm unit from the engine sector.

"We have no idea, captain. The shield registered it, but overloaded. Whatever that was, it was one hell of a powerful message to get by the passive shielding that easily."

The captain growled something under his breath and sat back in the chair heavily, pondering. HE had just been contacted by someone called Azula Veidt who was either a power adept herself, or had access to a power adept. Expert-class adept too, judging by how quick the passive shield went down. No one was supposed to know that he was hiding here, yet the probe found him... Also troubling, but could be explained in a myraid of different ways.

Whatever the case, he needed to find out where this came from. It sounded like an offer for a job, and he wasn't about to turn away some good money. And power adepts usually had enough cloud and money to throw around to make the most skeptical pirate pant like an over-excited dog. If it proved to be a good venture, it might be even easier than trying to chase down the prototype he was STILL looking for, even though the contract expired several months ago.

Who knows. Maybe this job would take him by Zeta and he'd pay a visit to a certain informant who needed to be taught a lesson.

Half an hour later, the bridge lit up as several others trooped in, taking seats and bringing lights to the previously-dark bridge of the Red Crow. The man the captain was speaking to previously came in last, taking a stand beside the captain's chair and sighing.

"The crew's pretty excited, Thevyn. That telepathic message has them riled up. You going?"

The captain, identified as the very person Azula was looking for, nodded slowly.

"I want to know who this Azula is, why we should work for her, and maybe earn some cash along the way. We've had a pretty bad streak with jobs lately, and it's starting to show on my accounts. We have enough to pay the crew, provisions and fuel, but not much beyond that. If we get into another large-scale skirmish, we won't have enough for large repairs."

The man beside him chuckled. "So, we go then?"

Thevyn nodded, smirking eagerly.

"We go. Alright, all you idiots, active battle stations! Start up the engines, run stealth in passive mode, get the jumpdrive wound up and ready to take us out. Liv, time?"

The man next to him replied immediately. "47 minutes. We're running well ahead of schedule captain. The explosives are set for exactly one hour, standard galactic. Do you want to stay and watch the fireworks, or should we jump to stated coordinates?"

Thevyn pressed a few buttons, brought up the proper screens, and leaned back. "Jump. This is a cruiser, it won't blow up as spectacularly as a battlecruiser. Besides... I want to know who the hell managed to find me this deep in the Lagoon Nebula, and why they were willing to do so with such a close approach."

Liv nodded, also somewhat concerned about it... But he figured his captain already had everything thought of, so no time to argue. "Initiate jump sequence! Just make sure not to brush the tunnel edges this time, you idiots!"

From the outside, the ship flashed a red color that shifted to blue by the time it passed the center of the ship, creating a blue blurring line behind it, almost like that of a comet. A second later, the glow enveloped the fish-like spacecraft, and it was gone, warping to the coordinates...

2 minutes later, the cruiser they left behind began to broadcast an SOS signal.

10 minutes after, the SOS signal cut out, and more space dust joined the Nebula...

[Ysmault]

When Thevyn’s ship emerged from Warp it would now be orbiting the planet Ysmault. The planet was not home to any native creatures – life was impossible to sustain on the volcanic ball of ash and fire. The few landmasses that did exist were smolderingly hot, and the temperature around the planet’s surface was so hot that most lifeforms would die within minutes.

However, orbiting the planet was a station. It floated around the burning, volcanic on a pre-set path. It was shielded in such a way to protect it from the heat.

A second probe launched from the station and stopped just in front of Thevyn’s ship, broadcasting a second message.

“Excellent, I’m glad that you’ve come. You can dock at landing bay 13. Feel free to bring weapons with you if you’d like, but I do assure you that I mean you no harm – only one very lucrative business opportunity.”

[Ysmault Station]

Liv shot a sideways look at Thevyn, who sighed in annoyance, tapping out a rapid pattern on the steel framing that housed the button controls for the command chair.

"If she keeps breaking my psi-barriers like that, I swear that I'll do something unpleasant."

Liv chuckled in response, but said nothing as he motioned the crew to move it. With coordinates set and all docking procedures running smoothly, the fish-like ship glided into the 13th docking bay of the space station, exchanging docking codes and confirming its arrival. It settled softly into the docking clamps, the ship's few lights finally settling into their default patterns.

A second later, several figured appeared out of this air on the docking ramp, as if stepping through a portal and walking on without a single pause. There were five figures that rippled into existence, all of them in very familiar positions.

The first was a figure dressed in very agile-looking, purple-plated armor. He had black skin, white hair, and somewhat luminescent purple eyes that focused on details quickly and moved quickly from detail to detail. He was lithe, grim-looking... And was less than average in height. Standing at 5'8, he was the shortest of the group around him, but he was the center piece that spoke of authority and menace. There was a presence to him, a powerful mental signature that pressed upon everyone who was psionically sensitive.

The second figure was taller. Thin, wiry, gray-skinned and rather emaciated-looking was the tall second-in-command, Liv. The man wore combat armor similar to the one worn by the central figure, but without the strange additions around the arms and legs, giving him the proper look for a power-armored trooper. The power armor itself, based on tensile electro-fiber, was just as agile-looking as the shorter central figure's, but was somewhat darker in coloration, and shone less.

The third figure was a hulking man, standing at a full 7 feet and dressed in full super-heavy power armor. This armor bore signs of modifications and customizations that definitely didn't belong on standard armor of any of the races in the known universe, including a shimmering field around the plating of the armor itself.

The last two figures were power-armored soldiers as well, but theirs was the medium-sized armor type and carried weapons openly unlike the three figures in the center. They looked rather grim as well, serious and ready for combat.

The central figure finally stopped in the middle of the docking platform, and called out in a low, raspy voice.

"So, where's the welcoming party? Is this how you treat your potential employees?"
