The sounds of heeled shoes and hooves walking on the marble linoleum

“Sadly, they refused to sell us anything more than the SS1 and SS2, but the other corps are selling us fighters, but no Starbreakers.” The crisp voice of the Mining Guild’s Diplomatic rep said to the cyborg Deer beside her as the two walked the hall of the Mining Guild’s Draco Eridanus’s Branch building. “Damn! I would have liked some Starbreakers in the fleet, but ah well” Said the Deer after a cyber breath. “What about a capital ship?” But the other woman shrugged her shoulders, causing another curse, as they came up to the great oak doors of the Draco Eridanus Branch office conference room.

The secretary looked up. “They are waiting for you, head on in!” he told the two and the two newcomers entered the room.

The room was large and filled with a great oak table. The Kurosaki sisters sat at one part of the table, and Kali could tell that the two of them were volumetric projections, as they were back in Sanctum. Behind them was a man, who Kali could tell had some family resemblance to the sisters. Beside them was Nicola Walker, the Branch head of Nephis Branch and like the sisters, she too was a volumetric display, as they were volumetric conferencing. The head of Draco Eridanis sat there, in person as was a person in military uniform, a Dusk Orbital Guard representative, and another wearing the uniform of the Kurosaki sibling.

Kali and Alice chose a seat across from the volumetric participants. “I think we are all here, ” said Astrid when the arrivals finally took their seats. Kali noticed the seat occupying the Royal Representative was empty, from both a Volumetric and physical being. “Before we begin, we should make introductions since some of us have not yet met the others, I am Astrid Kurosaki, CEO of our Mining Guild, and with me on my side are my brother and sister, Aeta Kurosaki COO, and Vilkis Kurosaki, Commander of the Night Guard. “ The latter two nodded their heads in greeting. “Alice Sursilvan, our Diplomatic corps” Alice nodded her head to the others, Kali had already met her. “Tammo Sheath, who will be the leader of the night Guard Capitain” The one she’d seen earlier had also nodded. “Draco Omacron, Draco Eridanus Branch head, and Nicola Walker Nephis Branch head” Both nodded their heads in greeting. “Kali Firewalker, who my sister and I have hand-picked to lead the Mining Guild Branch going out of Kikyo Sector” Kali stood and nodded their head.

“Firewalker, I see your related to the director of the Department of Communications?” Asked the DOG rep. Kali nodded “he’s my adopted father, yes, ” she replied.

With Introductions out of the way, Alice spoke first “I’ve told Kali about the response from the NDC higher ups” At this, the representative from the Dusk Orbital Guard shifts uncomfortably in their seat. “Sorry, ” he’d say in response.

“So they are up to speed, then after you sent me the message, Alice, I took the liberty of speaking to Lady Nyx, since we aren’t in a position where we can ask for things like Starbreakers, she as the creator, and member of the royal family does. Lady Nyx had just sent me a message via Quantum, that the military has agreed to send Starbreakers for your use in Delta Fleet, which is the name for the fleet you come up with?” Astrid asked.

Kali nodded her head “Delta Escort and protection Fleet, yes” she confirmed. “Delta Fleet for Short, and simple, and I’d rather not use an acronym for it. “Alice and Astrid both smiled and nodded along with the others. “So it's official then, we will have Starbreakers as part of the fleet?” Kali asked. “Yes, ” said Astrid. This seemed to lift Kali’s spirits. “Good, so we have the SS1 and 2s, and we’ll have an assortment of fighter craft. “

Astrid nodded and pressed a button, and on Kali’s screen data about the logistics appeared. “We’ve managed to scrounge some of these for your fleet’s logistics, and a few people have donated a Misha to your Fleet needs as well.” “wait, Misha, but those are Yugumo ships! Aren’t we going to cause problems for them by taking their ships while they are preparing?”Kali asked with concern on their Deer face. Aeta giggled “I’m so sorry it's just the look on your face is adorable, but I think you forgot about Second chance salvage right?” Kali widened her eyes, she had indeed forgotten about them.

“Many Mining Guild and Draco Eridanus citizens had gotten one, so when we were getting Delta Fleet ready, they donated them to the cause. We had the Engineering Core take a look and do repairs if need be, while also upgrading them using the Chairman specs of Noval’s since we haven't taken them from Yugumo Corp’s shipyards there should be no problems there, though I am sure they will be bothered if a group like the salvagers got their hands on them.” Aeta finished.

Kali nodded and relaxed back into her seat. “Alright, so we have our fleet, oh will there be any base building plans in the ship’s systems?” “Actually, you won't need to worry about a base building, ” said Astrid and pressed a button, on all of their display was the outside view where they see Station Omacron, and the Dracrei shipyards, and another Station Omacron. “What, two Omacrons?” Kali asked as she looked at the screen. “That is your base, it’s a clone of Station Omacron, the only difference is that one can move while this one can't. The Core is calling it Station Decacron, it will have the same interior as here, only with some updates, here and there. It also has a shipyard attached to it, so you’ll be able to fix and build new and old ships.” Said Aeta with a smile on her face.

Kali looked at the images further. “Speaking of shipyards, what is that project being built?” She asked, pointing to the Matte black ship. “About that, ” Aeta said with a wider smile ”that will be your flagship, your capital ship. It’s a Reforged Class starship, with a slightly similar look to another ship we had built as a surprise for Astrid here. The other day we’d hired people to go out to ship wreckages and bring some hulls back. They’d gone to the site of the battle of Glimmergold, and they were able to bring some things back. The Engineering Core began working and using the hulls into a new ship. The class name was because we were remaking something from an old ship. “

Kali nodded ”dramatic, but when it's done, I’d like to put it through a slew of stress tests, weapon tests, flight tests.” She then blinked “sorry! That’s probably obvious, huh?” Tammo just grinned “hey, it is true it's obvious but it means you got a head on your shoulders, but don’t worry I’ll handle that for you”

“so we got the fleet set up, the flag and the base are still being built, but we are on schedule, the next order of business... Who’ll be coming along on this journey?’ Kali asked. “We have a few people from your former shift coming along, you most likely know them, and we’ve tapped a few reserve members, and newly joined members, that’s just for the Mining Guild. For members in other careers on Decacron, we’ve got a few citizens who wanted to be on board Decacron for whatever reason. We also have a few clones, some from original NDC stock.” Said, Astrid

“Speaking of, from Second Chance Salvage... I’d received something that contains human DNA... I’d like to get a clone made of it.” So I had it sent to where that was possible” Kali mentioned and Astrid nodded ”I can confirm a clone was made so we’re transferring them back to join the fleet. it's not related to anyone there so there won't be any issues for inbreeding when it happens.” She finished before Draco Interjected “Speaking of cloning, I’ve had plans for a cloning lab set to be built on Station Decacron, so if need be, you’ll be able to make clones too. You should have enough DNA from both human stock, to take care of the previously mentioned inbreeding worry, and the same goes for the Anthro genetics, as well as Separa’shan genes. “ They finish.

“Alright, ” said Kali ”so I think, as far as I know, things have been going well in the population, and the ship and base situation?” Draco nodded “yup, we are on schedule for the building, and should be able to make it with time to spare before the Motoyoshi and Yugumo planned to leave. At least it is the hope” They commented, and Kali nodded.

“Since Decacron will have a city like Omacron does, what will its name be? Also the flagship, I know it's called a Reforgec-class capital ship, but is there another name for it, something we tell others?” Kali asked. “Actually, I thought that you should name both. Since you’ll likely be using them and being in them. I’d want you to be comfortable.” Astrid said, amid nods from the others. “ok... Then I’d like to name the city….Decaville as for the ship, Durandium Phoenix, ” she saw smiles in the group. “Both names are perfect,” Astrid said, and everyone agreed. “Ok, baring nothing else of importance to discuss, meeting adjourned!” Astrid said and immediately, she Aeta and Vilkis disappeared. Kali and the others rose from their seats and Kali led the way out.

Kali thought silently as she headed to her home, as she thought of packing her belongings for the trip. Movers will transfer her furniture, to Decaville. So she knew she’ll need to deal with the other things.” Kali stopped at a market in the Commercial district, and ordered boxes to be delivered to her home before she got a ride home.
 
Moving Day!
Draco Eridanus
Station Omacron
Omacron Apartment 5212

Ye 44.8


Kali silently stood in her apartment kitchenette as she sips a glass of water as she looks over the boxes on their counter. Inside the boxes were plates, cups of various kinds, utensils, and electronic appliances. On finishing her drink, she cleaned the class, and puts it with the other liquid containers, and closes the box before she seals it. Then she looked at the large package of a storage device that can attach to her Geist. This she knew was full of information regarding interaction she’ll likely have to do with Yugumo employees or Motoyoshi Clan members.

It was thanks to the officer exchange program, from members from Yamatai who’d been kind enough to provide the information, and it was thanks to them that she’d had the copy. That will go with the rest of the stuff to her new home on Station Decacron.

The doorbell buzzed, and Kali moved to press the button. “Yeah?” “Hey, Kay! I’ve come with the movers to help move your stuff sib!” Said the perky feminine voice. “Thanks, Jan, I appreciate it, come on up! She said pressing another button, and a few minutes later, a female Cat Anthro with a male Turtle Anthro appeared followed by Synthetics. The Turtle got things going, with the furniture gone to the truck, which will then be moved to the freighter ship before the reverse on Decacron.

The hare moved to join Kali “so how's it feel being made a leader?’ She asked. “kinda nervous, because I’ll be leading the branch and we’ll be leaving the sector.” Kali replied “I know, but I’ll be there, and so will everyone, I got your back sib!” Kali smiled ”thanks Jan, oh I heard your sis is pregnant again? What is it this time, 100245th?” Jan sighed “she’s a Cat damn it not a bunny! by the void she’s gonna give Cats a reputation.

The two talked while the movers dealt with her furniture. “Oh! You got the cache?” She asked, pointing to the device. “Yup, I’m gonna look through it when I get settled in “Jan nodded “sounds good, if you're open to it, I might join you, I’m gonna need to go through it too,” she said and soon the movers were done. “Come, let's get something to eat before we go.” Kali thought about the request her friend had made it would be good to have people review the information as a group so she decided to agree, along with the agreement for food. “Good idea, I’m starving,” she said as the two left the apartment for the last time.

The two went to Yama Loki and gave their order for their food and sat waiting for it. “So, we eat, and then take the transport to Decacron?” Kali nodded “Yeah, I want to get the new place set how I like it, before I begin with the learning.” Jan nodded in understanding, she knew that Kali was particular about how things looked and that it would distract them too much.

Finally, their food arrived and the two spent no time talking as they ate their food. Though they will eat the same foods, on the other station, they wanted to savor the taste of the food they're eating now. Eventually, they were finished, and Kali took their food to the drop-off area and paid for their meal. The two walked out of the restaurant, and then to the lift down to the docking bay where they got in a stork and rode it out of Omacron and into Decacron.

Once they stepped off the transport, they were shocked to find it looked the same. “Wow not much different huh?” Kali asked, and Jan simply nodded before they went to the lift up to Deca ville “some difference here, “Jan joked before they stepped into the city square. They were met with a crowd of people, some moving towards the trams others staying put. As the crowd thinned, the two could see there was people giving cards and reading names off of a volumetric display.

Finally, it was their turn “Kali Firewalker, oh hey boss! I got your housing assignment right here” the Helashio female said, handing the address to Kali’s new home, which was the Mining Guild Branch building. “Wow, you're going up in the world!” Jan commented. “Jan Felisadae?” Jan nodded ”that’s me!” The Helashio nodded her head. “You’ll be going the same place, all overseers are, at least single ones.” the Helashio handed over the card to Jan and the two got on a city car to their new home.

They each went up to the residential apartments, and then up to their rooms where each began their unpacking and getting things ready.
 
Durandium Phoenix
Captain’s Ready Room
On Approach to Nephis, then Vale



I’m told we are making great time on our approach to the Nephis System, Once we arrive, we’ll be bringing the Colony ships, and any additional ships that want to join us, back to Draco Eridanus. Which reminds me, The Genetic samples we’d brought how are they doing? Any viable clones?” Captain Sheath asked the volumetric of a Deer Anthro sipping Puraliberry Juice.

I’m glad to hear you’re making great time, sooner you retrieve them, and any desiring to join, the better, the Phoenix is a powerful ship, Though the genetic samples you brought back have greatly allowed for genetic diversity, having more people join is just as good. As for the DNA samples you have brought, I am told they were all viable, There will be a large group of Nepleslians, as well as Anthros, of which there were some Fox Anthros among the group that were loyal pirates. Of course, we spliced these genetics so they don’t look like their original selves. On the off chance, they encounter Yugumo employees who were captured. Though, one of the clones, a Fox had left Draco Eridanus. Kali told him as she set her glass of juice down.

Tammo found himself concerned over the news of the escaping Vixen and found himself speaking. About the Fox that left, anything I should be concerned with? He asked them. Maybe, I heard she got some Cybernetic implants, specifically the Concealed assault Turret, and the Plasma Claws, also ocular implants; of course she also has the Geist implanted. Via Our Diplomatic Rep I’ve sent a message so that others could be on alert should our Eridanian Vulpine Vixen try anything. She wasn’t interested in joining the Mining Guild or the military, which confuses me, if that was the case, why did she get those specific implants? Kali stated and finished with her question.

hmm. Maybe for defense? It was why Lady Nyx designed them after all, as a last line of defense. But knowing the commander, he’ll have the Night Guard on the alert also, which.. ah Yes I see a message from him on my terminal, which means he might have sent the other division captains a message too. . Tammo’s eyes took note of the blinking message indicator from the Commander of the Knight Guard. if there is a safety concern, I’m confident in my fellow servicemen in the Night Guard, and especially those in the Fourth division protecting you and the other divisions. I’m gonna ask my sister, Saria to look into her, and her actions while she was still in the capital, wait was she created in the capital, or Deca City?” He asked Kali.

Yeah, we started them in the capital, DracoTown, though some are in Deca City’s cloning facilities, but we’re giving both the choice to go with us, or stay in the Kikyo sector. I think the escapee was one of those in the DracoTown Facilities. Kali said as she sips her drink again. I’ll see what your sister says about her activities and let you know through comms or in person” Sounds good, in the meantime, I see the alert that we are about to come out of warp, so talk to you soon{/color] Tammo said as he ended the call, then checked the message from the commander of the Night Guard, who basically told him what he already knew about an unscheduled leaving of one of the Fox clones. Turns out the Fox clone also was a AI in an organic body. great, now she’ll react fast to certain situations phhft that’s gonna be fun for the others if it turns out she’s hostile! he chuckled before leaving his ready roo.

Durandium Phoenix Bridge

Tammo left his ready room with a calmness that was normal for him. The doors brought him to the Bridge where he saw the blue tunnel of Hyperspace travel. He remained silent as none of the crew spoke to him, which was normal since they were focused on their work. His second in command moved off the captain’s seat so he could sit down. The seat rumbled as the capital ship entered real space. He could see the Nephis system before him.

He chose to observe and watch as the colony ships approached the capital ship. “Captain! According to reports all civilians who have ships have docked with the colony ships, and we also have people from outside the NDC joining us as well. They have found space in the Colony ships alongside our own citizens. Seems they wanted to join the Mining Guild, specifically those going outside the Kikyo Sector, sir! Said The ship’s communications officer. Good, Helm, once the colony ships have linked up with us, proceed to Vale” He commanded, and heard the affirmative from the helm officer.

Tammo turned his attention back to the screen where the Island class colony ships have made their way to the capital ship, and saw through the communications, and sensor stations that they were soon linked.

Once this was completed, the helm activated the ship’s FTL and they, the escorts and the colony ships were on their way. Vale was close to Nephis so He chose to remain in his seat since he knew it wouldn’t take as long. Eventually, after what seemed to be a day, they’d arrived in the Vale System where like before the ship linked with the capital ship and they were on their way back to Draco Eridanus.
Tammo returned to his quarters where he checked his messages and saw one from his sister, Saria.



Dear Big Brother
According to the investigation, the Fox clone, designated D1252 originally but soon changed that to Mileena , had gotten herself decanted along with a few of the other clones, and during orientation, had asked about spots on freighter ships, unfortunately the guy in charge of that group’s orientation didn’t know if there was any and simply said no space available, and made it seem like she could only join the military or the Mininig Guild, which she apparently didn’t like and had taken a survival Kit as well as a Guppy and had gotten more cybernetic implants, like the Plasma Claws, and the Concealed assault turret, and left. Escaping out to the universe, based on the evidence, the higher ups aren't considering her a criminal, but there is a concerned over her being armed, but we’re adopting a wait and see.

Saria



Tammo leaned back as he finished reading, and processed the information. “heh, knowing Kali’s dad, he’d want to adopt her into the family no doubt hahah”

On return to Draco Eridanus, he immediately sent a fleet wide message to the Delta fleet, and had them begin formation Defender 1. His view screens showed the ships beginning to move into position, with Station Decacron behind the Capital ship and the colony ships and Agriculture ships nestled in between warships to defend and block them from attack. Tomorrow they will prepare to move out, but from the fleet standpoint they were ready just need to get people settled in.



OOC: This would be the final post until they launch the Colonial Initiative. Though i will do Mileena's thing soon.[/COLOR]
