Xigor

 * Creator:Wormulon
 * Character:Xigor

After last night's celebration, work began immediatly. Xigor woke up with a hang over, but he is a Grimbolsaurian and will deal with it. However, there were reports already, in fact just a few days ago a new strain of Nanohorde- the Quantumhorde was causing panic and confusion, as they began to devastate several galaxies already in frightening speed thanks to their assimilated Xhodocto drives and Quark-Gluon disruptors, consuming, and replicating more of themselves, destroying almost everything in their wake. From simplicity arises destruction.

Xigor, working among top scientists must find a way to stop the Horde soon. After an assignment briefing, he quickly travelled down to the labs and science deck. As soon as he entered he briefed the clean artificial smell in, this was his world, not of warriors, but of science. But he had an important task at hand. First, the Quantumhorde must be collected securly, Xigor had the idea of trapping the horde by making them very cold, so cold, they would lose energy and slow down, there he could experiment with them on the station safely.

Samedi

 * Writer: Tobiaswolf
 * Character: Samedi

It Followed Me Home
It had been a few days since his escape and Samedi was loving it. He had became close friends with the Mecron and had learned their code names to avoid publicity. Echo, Wolf, Bones, Alpha and Delta. They were all living Mecron that broke away from the empire to start a Dojo-like city full of skilled Samurai-like Mecron. The 6 came home to a still Fordanta. Echo tried to slap him awake but his hand went through his face.

Echo- This is a trap, they know about us, we have to leave, now. Samedi- Let me get my things and we can go. Echo- ''We have to go, any second they could come here, Wolf, lock the doors and scout from the window. You, we are leaving, we owe you.'' Samedi- But...

Just as Samedi was going to say his next word the air shimmered and numerous Fordan came out of nowhere. All six attempted to escape but they were guarding the door. The group sprinted to the bathroom, the only place that had a door that locked. Bones, Delta and Alpha didn't make it, they were caught by the closing Fordanta. The room shacked and they were running out of time. Thinking quickly, Wolf decided to open the door, and have Samedi escape through vents with Echo. Fordans couldn't fit through it but Meta-bot and mecron can. After traveling through many passages the duo rested.

Echo- They don't know where we are, they can't. They're probably ratting us out right now. Samedi- ''You don't know that, what about us though? We can't leave without the 4, I won't. You can leave but I'm going back to find them.'' Echo- I'm coming, I won't return to the homeland without Wolf.

The two friends then went all the way back to the silent Fordan group. The head of the group, Ri'Kar'D looked up and saw Samedi. He alerted the others and Samedi came down from the vent with his hands up and the Fordans immediately surrounded him and took him away. Meanwhile Echo was still out of sight.

Lsarius

 * Character: Lsarius Tyrensis

Just Another Day At Work...
Lsarius alarm rang. Lsarius woke and sat up. He looked at his watch, which lied at the bedside table. It was 7.30 am (GF Time). He had sleeped through his first two alarms at 7.00 and 7.15. He got dressed and left the apartment. He had a fifteen minutes walk to his work so he bought a sandwich and ate it on the way. He arrived at 7.57 am (GF Time) and his co-worker, GF Councillor Yndina was alraedy there.

"Where have you been? We have been looking all over for you. You would not even answer on your phone.", she said.

"Oh, sorry. I forgot to turn it on. Have something happened?" Lsarius replied.

"Yes. I have good news and bad news."

"Start with the good ones."

''Okay. We've been accepted into the SSA."''

"Well, that's great. And the bad ones."

"Joining the SSA means a lot more paperwork for us. But that's not the worst. The quantumhorde has been sighted here in Galaxon."

"The what-horde"

"The Quantumhorde. You know about the Nanohorde, right..."

"Yes"

"This is the Nanohorde but much more evolved."

"Okay. Send a transmission to Treco. Ask him to send a few scientists to help us. And I think were going to celebrate that we have joined the SSA. Tell the staff."

"What about going to Vito's."

"Okay. Tell the staff to be there at 8.00 pm."

"Okay, bye."

"Bye."

Lsarius left the building. He was going to see a security officer. The same Grimbolsaurian who had greeted him the first day. Three workers then came around the corner. One of them, the leader, drew a knife and said:

"Hey you, Fancy-Pants. Come here and give us your money."

Lsarius started to walk slowly towards them, pretending to give in. As he was close enough reach the worker he moved one hand inside his shirt, as if he was going to take out his wallet. With the other hand he punched the worker in the face. The worker fell to the ground. Lsarius pulled out a small plasma pistol from his shirt and said:

"You'd better leave. Now".

The workers picked up their friend and left. Then the security officer arrived.

"Why do always security officers arrive to late", Lsarius asked.

"Bad luck,I guess", the officer said. "Now follow me. I've got someome who wants to meet you."

Then they started walking.

Benjamud IV
Writer: BNSCLeader Character: Benjamud IV

Oh great, aliens!!
While walking back to his casino, on the way he sees smoke and people running away from the area and hears lots of screaming. Benjamud stops, he sees a shadow character, but then he sees four shadow characters.

Benjamud - "Oh shit, it's aliens!!"

Benjamud turns around and starts running, he heads towards Vito's Bar, but he's getting shot at by the aliens, but he evades every shot, then one of the aliens' vehicles fires at a building and it falls over blocking Benjamud, then Benjamud comes face to face with the broken building and then turns around, facing the aliens. Everthing is silent.

Benjamud - "Come on, bring it on, bitches!!"

Then the moment of silence ends when the aliens starts firing at Benjamud, but Benjamud evades every single shot with backflips. Then Benjamud started to run around a street, and then sees Vito's Bar's sign, but it's shot down by the aliens. Benjamud kept running until he the aliens' vehicles stopped running at him, then he thought to himself.

Benjamud - Now's my chance...

Benjamud runs towards one of the vehicles and breaks a hole into the vehicle, and kills the aliens in it. He then takes control of the vehicle and aims at another vehicle. But then the other vehicles all aim at him.

Benjamud - "Oh, for the love of Christ, come on now!!"

Benjamud then pushs a button and jumps out of the vehicle, then he just sees it being torn to shreds.

Benjamud - "Better get the hell outta here!!"

Then he jumps into the nearest bush and watches the aliens. He then just waits until they leave.

Then he wakes up and finds himself in his bedroom, in his bed.

Benjamud - "Godamnit, good thing that was a dream."

Then he went back to sleep.

L'ya Sha'nda

 * Writer:''NanjeofKro
 * Character:L'ya Sha'nda

Arrival
L'ya Sha'nda gazed out of the starship's window. "It is very large" she thought."Why build such a thing?". "I guess I will find out soon enough. "We are docking. Should we follow you onto the station?" one of the crewmembers asked. "No, I think I will be fine" L'ya replied. She had traveled to many a place without guards, she didn't think she would need any here. As she walked out of the ship, she was approached by two large, insectoid aliens in technolgically advanced suit of armor. "Krrrrtlkiiiii shwikiiir klrrrk" one of them said. "Sorry, I can't understand you" L'ya replied. "Krrrrtlkiiiii shwikiiir klrrrk" the alien said once again, this time more angrily. "Sorry, I can't understand you" she once again said. The creature looked at her angrily, then pointed where she stood, implying that she should stay where she were.

30 minutes later, the creature came back, with another kazaru. "This security guard wants you to reveal name and species" the kazaru said. "L'ya Sha'nda, kazaru". The kazaru said the very same thing to the alien, the alien talked back, and the kazaru understood! L'ya noticed that he wore some kind of headset, which seemingly allowed him to understand the alien. "I must get one of those" she thought. "Excuse me, but could you tell me where I could get one of those headsets that you are wearing?". Of course, hasma, take mine, I don't want to waste your time". "Thank you" she said. She then happily walked away, certain that her newly accuired device would allow her to learn much new knowledge.

Avexia

 * Writer: Irskaad
 * Character: DT Avexia

A visit
Avexia scanned through her TV, which was filled with many foreign channels, she then stopped at a religious one. Avexia was confused at the concept of destiny, and carried on scanning. She then stopped at a News channel. She heard of something called "The Quantumhorde", she asked Taxia about it.

Avexia - "What is the Quantumhorde?" Taxia - "Hmmmmm... Nothing to worry about, I bet it's just an army of soldiers that could be defeated by the Iteok. No worries." Avexia - "Allright. Bye!" Taxia - "Oh, and make sure you talk to aliens today! I have a list of Halcyon inhabitants that you would find interesting, Vito is a nice bar owner, Ri'Kar'D is another nice Fordanta, you met him. "Saturday" is a cute robot, he's a metabot, you should meet him. Benjamud IV is a cute bearian. Xigor is a nice Grimbie. I got this list because I looked around in this camera" (Avexia's Floating Camera) "while you were watching TV, and I saw these people. Go meet them. Avexia - "Yes sir!"

Avexia decided to leave her apartment, and she saw the bar, where Vito was. It was her chance to make herself respected by her teacher.

She entered the bar, and talked to Vito.

Avexia - "Can you give me some Peko soda?" Vito - "We don't sell Peko soda. It is too foreign." Avexia - "Oh, ok... I thought they knew us better by now..." *Looks at Vito* "Awww, aren't you cute?" Vito - "Yes... Thanks?"

She then decides to pet Vito. This slightly angers him, and she grabs her arm and says:

Vito - "Stop. Now." *Lets go of arm* Avexia - "It's our way of showing people we like them..." Vito - "I don't care about your messed up culture, in here, we pet animals, not people!" Avexia - "You obviously haven't been in Ka- I mean, Vatelia. Many Asgordians pet each other here." Vito - "As I said, I don't care." *Gives her soda* "Just drink. The price is 1 §." Avexia - *Shows him Kron money* "All I have is Kron..." *Somehow finds a Sporebuck bill* "Oh, here you go." Vito - "Good. See you later!" Avexia - "Bye!"

After she saw Ri'Kar'D and he injected stims on Avexia, healing her bruises, Taxia then contacts Avexia.

Taxia - "How doesn't he like petting?" Avexia - "I have no idea. But I got a "Spoorbuk" bill on my wallet somehow-" Taxia - "I put it there. Nobody takes the mighty Kron here for some reason... Anyways, try not to pet the next person. Ok?" Avexia - "Ok!"

And so she walks again, looking for more people to talk to...

Ri'Kar'D

 * Writer: Spriggs077
 * Character: Ri'So'Va Cdr. Ri'Kar'D

On Patrol?
Ri'Kar'D was furious. To him it seemed that the entire station disapproved of him and his warriors. To date, he and his men had stopped two potentially lethal fights, apprehended a bank robber who had killed innocent bystanders, and his reward? Two warnings and a prisoner escaping. Fordans are all naturally talented at hiding their emotions, but not from each other. Ri'Kar'D's squad could all tell that he was being affected by the way the occupants of the station were treating him, so they went out on patrol to give the commander some time to cool off.

Eventually Ri'Kar'D decided he wasn't going to get anywhere sitting around and moping, so against all good judgement he went back to Vito's. On the way in, he saw Avexia walking out, and vaguely wondered if she had tried to pet anyone. He saw the bruises on her arm and figured she had. He caught up with her and gave her a quick shot from a stim-injector, and the bruises faded. As he walked back to Vito's, Ri'Kar'D thought back to the time he met Avexia. It seemed to him that he was going to be spending a lot of time on the station protecting the careless girl, but perhaps that was what he needed, something to keep his mind off the treatment he was getting from the rest of the station.

As he walked into Vito's, he drew the usual gasps and stares, but he wasn't wearing his armour, instead he wore a long garment of finely woven cloth. A quick gesture showed that he wasn't carrying weapons, and the crowd relaxed. Vito eyed him cautiously, as if to say "Don't try anything funny punk." Glancing around the room, Ri'Kar'D spotted a spare table and took a seat. A couple of his warriors were relieved from their patrol routes and joined him. Then the surprising thing happened: Ri'Kar'D mentioned the effects of a sword's cross-section on swing speed and impact, and the three started a debate. Some of the patrons turned on translators and listened to the three giant warriors discuss with the polished vocabulary of a senior professor, and a great number of them revised their opinions of Fordans on the spot. Eventually the three decided by mutual agreement that the debate wasn't going to go anywhere, so they started laughing and ordered some drinks.

Eventually the Kin-group all met up outside Vito's, and decided they'd cut loose for a bit, just to ease the tension of the past few days. Passers by were amazed to find twenty-one 10ft tall killers settling down with a drink in one hand and a book in the other, talking to people about nothing in particular. The spectacle made the Kin-group look more like a party of bureaucrats than a team of lethal murderers, and the sight was something that many of the occupants of the station remembered every time they saw a Fordan from that day forward. Ri'Kar'D knew that it alone wouldn't change peoples' opinions overnight, but he was enjoying himself too much to care.

Benjamud IV

 * Character: Benjamud IV

Augmention time!!
While Benjamud's sleeping, his alarm went off.

Benjamud - "Damnit, time already?"

So Benjamud got out of his bed, then he brushed his teeth and then took a shower, then he got dressed, then he checked his phone before he left.

Benjamud - "What's new today?"

Benjamud then checked his updates folder, it said today the Bearian augmention was today, on Halcyon.

Benjamud - "Oh shit, better hurry!!"

Then Benjamud got his stuff and hurried to the nearest hospital, then he entered the hospital, but got stuck in a big line up.

Benjamud - Oh great, I guess I can wait.

So then Benjamud sat down in a chair and waited, then he went to sleep.

An hour later...

Benjamud wakes up, he looks around him.

Benjamud - "Where am I?"

Benjamud got out of the seat and went to the office.

Benjamud - "Hello, I'm here for the new Bearian augmentation."

Then the person in the office looked at him, frowning, Benjamud knew this person hated his job.

Office Person - "Name? Sigh..."

Benjamud - "Benjamud Zeta."

Then the office person registered his name in, then got out of it's chair.

Office Person - "Follow me please. Sigh..."

Then they both walked to a doctor's room, it said Doctor Harwout Lobuet, Benjamud didn't know what kind of name a person would have like that one.

Office Person - "In here please, the doctor will see you in a minute. Sigh..."

Then Benjamud walked in to the room and then sat down in a chair.

A minute later...

The Doctor came into the room with a niddle.

Doctor - "Hello and good morning, I'm Doctor Harwout Lobuet. I want to make this quick, please, I have another person to take care of."

Benjamud - "Alright."

Then Benjamud got his niddle and left, then he headed to his Casino. Then he checked his watch.

Benjamud - "Damnit, I'm an hour and a half late!!"

So Benjamud continued running to his Casino.

Katarina

 * Writer: CaptainTybusen
 * Character: Katarina Lombard

A New Assignment
Finally, a day off, Katarina thought. The maintenance crew finally decided to have a vacation day. Katarina was down at the beach, relaxing in the sun. I could sit here all day, she thought. I don't think there's anything that could ruin-

Katarina's phone started to ring.

"I had to ask." Katarina said, annoyed. She reached for her beach bag, grabbed the phone, and answered it. "What is it? This better be important."

"This is a very important matter, Katarina," the voice replied.

"Wha- Who is this?" Katarina asked.

"This is Xigor, a scientist on Station Halcyon," the voice said. "We require your services in the research center. Now." With that, Xigor hung up. Katarina was slightly frustrated. Leaving the fun to go help some researcher. Yeah, whoop-de-frickin-do. Katarina thought. ''It's so important, isn't it. It's not like the Nanohorde's speeding this way right now. Yeah. Right.''

Katarina stormed into the research room, still in her beach clothing. She definitely stood out amongst the other scientists and engineers in their lab coats. There was a somewhat artificial smell in the air. The smell of science.

Soon, a researcher approached her. "Ah, Xigor was expectin-" he began.

"Just make this quick, I sacrificed a vacation day for this," Katarina said.

"Katarina, we need you to cooperate with us. The-" the scientist began.

"Look, I don't care if it's a broken Bunsen Burner or the frickin' Nanohorde speeding this way," Katarina said. "All I want is to go back to the beach, soak up some sun rays, then go home to watch Saturday Night Live."

"Katarina, the Nanohorde are speeding this way."

"Yeah, that's what I- They're what? You mean they're back? I thought we frickin' trapped them in Xhoddie-Land!"

"We did, but- Well, it's a long story..."

After the researcher explained the rise of the Quantumhorde, Katarina's eyes were wide with terror. There's no way that could have happened, she thought. Damnit, no wonder it was so important.

"Katarina!" someone said. Katarina looked up to see Xigor. "Ah, Katarina, I've heard many stories. Many. You certainly have a high reputation."

"I assume you already have a plan?"

"Yes, yes I do. Come, I shall explain..."

Katarina and Xigor walked down the long hall to the depths of the research chamber, all while Xigor gave Katarina her new assignment...

Vito Nelph

 * Writer: Lucario of the Gods
 * Character: Vito Nelph

Memory
Vito breathed heavily as he served a Gundaan Borech, a type of blue alcoholic drink, to a customer. The customer looked at Vito and said "What's wrong?" While Vito breathed heavily, his vision was blurring. "Nothing..." he tried to say. "Nothing....at all......" He fell unconscious.

Vito opened his eyes and saw that he was no longer on Halcyon, instead in a large field with mud rising to the surface. The skies were red while the clouds were black. Vito was observing a distant memory. He then saw hundreds of his kind charge ahead towards an army of large reptiles, nearly as tall as Fordans. Guns were fired, swords clashed, blood was spilled. Vito cannot remember completely why the fight took place, but he knew that he was in the army of his kind. He saw a fighter fly over head towards a large ship of black metal. The large ship burst into flames and fell onto Vito's army, killing them all.

He came back to consciousness. He looked up at his surprised customer. "What?" asked Vito. "Are you sure you are okay?" the customer asked. Vito stood on his feet. "I'm fine, but I sense that something's coming. I sense something foreign stirring up trouble." said Vito. The customer looked disgusted. "Hey, that's racist!" exclaimed the customer. Vito rolled his eyes. "I meant foreign to this part of the Universe." explained Vito. The customer walked away with his drink, while Vito had a strange feeling in his gut.

Benjamud IV

 * Writer: BNSCLeader
 * Character: Benjamud IV

Bar fight!!!
Benjamud kept rushing to his casino, then when he got there, he got ready as fast as he could, or what would say, as fast a Bearian could. But then one of his employees came up to him.

Employee - "You're late boss, what happened?"

Benjamud - ''"Pant... Bearian Augmention, Pant... today, at every Pant... Halcyon hospital.. Pant..."

Employee - "Alright then boss."

Then the employee left and went back to his station, Benjamud headed towards his office. When got inside his office, he walked to his chair and sat down and turned on his TV and looked at all of the news reports on Halcyon and his casino. Then he there was a news report about Vito.

Reporter - "Today, here at Station Halcyon, the boss of Vito's Bar, otherwise Vito, himself, was working until he started talking slowly, what do you have to say?"

Customer - "Well, um... I saw Vito serving this guy his drink, until Vito started talking slowly and the guy was asking Vito if he was alright, but then Vito fainted. Everyone in the bar was focusing on Vito. After Vito got up, the guy was all like, "That's racist!!", or something, and then he left with his drink."

Reporter - "Thank you very much, this is Reporter Sally McGree, signing off."

News Achor - "Thank you Sally, now, we go to Avexia."

Then Benjamud shut off the TV, and then walked outside, into the lobby of his casino, watching his customers playing the lottery games and his employees helping them and serving them. Then Benjamud walked back into his office and went to sleep in his casino's bedroom.

7 Earth Hours Later...

Benjamud woke up and checked all the news reports, nothing new was on the news. Benjamud then headed to the lobby and saw his employees closing the casino and counting the money. After the money was counted and his employees headed home, Benjamud headed to Vito's Bar.

1 Earth Hour Later...

When Benjamud got to Vito's Bar, he headed towards Vito, but he was blocked by a drunk stranger.

Stranger - "Who are you, bitch?!"

Benjamud - "Why the hell do you care? Get out of my way or you will be sorry."

Stranger - "Oh, is that right? Well, look whose sorry now, bitch!!"

The stranger then punched him in the face, Benjamud fell flat on his back. Benjamud then got up and went into a combat stance.

Benjamud - "I said you would be sorry!!"

Benjamud punched the stranger and he fell down, then he got up and tried to punch Benjamud.

Stranger - "Stop moving you son of a bitch!!"

Then they faught and faught, then everyone in the bar turned towards them.

Everyone - "Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight!!!"

They both started fighting like hell met heaven, until Benjamud beat the stranger, but Benjamud had blood all over his face and a black eye.

Benjamud - "That's right, don't pick a fight... Bitch..."

Benjamud then headed towards Vito.

Vito - "Look what you did Benjamud, you beat the hell out of that guy!! You're just lucky he isn't dead, yet..."

Benjamud - "I know Vito, I know. I'm sorry but he started the whole godamn fight you know. Sigh... Just give me the wine I want, and I will leave."

Vito - "Fine."

Vito then gave Benjamud his wine and Benjamud left.

1 Earth Hour Later...

After Benjamud got his wine, he then headed to his apartment. After he opened his door, he then got a glass and poured some of the wine and drank. Benjamud then headed to bed. Then Benjamud fell asleep again.

Samedi

 * Writer: Tobiaswolf
 * Character: Samedi

I Got the Crazy Blues
Samedi woke, he was shoved in a police car and given pills before passing out. He couldn't move, he didn't have the energy for it. Just then he realized he was in a padded room. Oh my god... Samedi thought. Just as he was going to get up, the door opened and an unfamiliar face was seen, Samedi didn't know what alien. He then had two other huge aliens to lift Samedi to his feet, but they didn't let go. The smaller creature than began to speak.

Creature-Hey buddy what's your name? Samedi- Don't give me that crap you freak of nature! Creature- ''Sigh, they're never easy. I'm your therapist, I'll ask again, what's your name?'' Samedi- Sic..sember... Creature- You two, give him the prescription.

Just like that Samedi punched the two in their stomachs, bringing them down. He then went for the little one, he was frightened so Samedi didn't bother. Samedi then left the room, then he saw a Fordan with his arms crossed.

Samedi- Just forgot this wasn't the hospital, i'll be leaving now. The fordan walks towards him Samedi- ''sigh, fine. Thought this was going to be a cake-walk.''

Samedi went back into the room, where it was then locked from the outside. The therapist then had a sarcastic grin on his face and the other two large aliens grabbed Samedi. Where is Echo? Samedi muttered to himself. Samedi was then put on a sort of leash and was left to rot as the therapist asked questions about the crime. Than after an hour of questioning, he was deemed safe enough to be with normal crazy people. Samedi was escorted to the new room he had. There were to beds, the other had someone in it. The sheets moved and the person got up to greet the roommate, but the therapist gave Samedi's information to the roommate. Then Samedi realized who this was, a Mecron. It was Wolf! The two talked for hours but then their door was opened and the 3 usual aliens were there. They realized the mistake they had made. Wolf gestured for Samedi to ride with him. Samedi and Wolf raced out of the room, then the hall, but when they got to the floor they required a password. All the windows were barred and more than 3 guards were coming, even the Fordan was there. The Fordan grabbed Samedi and the others got wolf, they were each dragged to two different padded rooms. Samedi then realized that they couldn't fight the system, so Samedi didn't fight. No longer was Samedi trusted so he was only able to see the Therapist, the most hated person on the floor. Once however, somebody named Avexia came to their and saw Samedi and took off his ring. Samedi was almost certain he would never be free.

Tazch'xatri

 * Writer: The Randomness/Spriggs077
 * Character: Tazch'xatri/Ri'Kar'D

Limits
After watching the various incidents involving Ri'Kar'D on the station through some security cameras he had installed, Tazch'xatri, being the chief of security on the station, decided to hold a meeting with Ri'Kar'D despite the fact that the group of Fordans were more or less "independent". As he waited for Ri'Kar'D to arrive, he armed himself with a stun pistol and a small knife in case the Fordan would react violently to something he said, and then concealed them as to make it appear as if he were unarmed, and also to hide his mistrust towards him. As Ri'Kar'D sat down in a chair, Tazch'xatri set his vocal synthesizer to the Fordan language, and began speaking.

"I do believe you know why you are here, Ri'Kar'D, and so, I will not bother in small talk and get to the point. While I am aware that you and your "Kin-group" are considered to be an independent force when it comes to the security of the station, some restraints must be placed so then you can't be running amok causing mayhem on the station. What do you think about this?"

''"I think that if you are to arm yourself, have the decency to put that knife and pistol where I can see them. Don't seem so surpised. I am 2046 years old, and in that time I have learnt the various ways of hiding weapons. It doesn't work against me. You didn't need to bring a weapon to tell me that you don't trust me. the very context of this meeting told me all I need to know. If you want to put on restrictions, so be it, but you shall recieve no guarantee that they will be adhered to. *The Fordan leaned closer, and his face darkened as it moved slightly out of the light.* You may lead the security forces aboard this station, but do not forget that it was my Fordanta who broke the gang robbing tourists and crew on the docking level. It was my Kin who found the fugitive Samedi when he escaped, my Kin who reclaimed him, and my Kin who recaptured him when he escaped, even after he slipped through the fingers of your security. Keep that in mind when you dare presume to limit my powers."

Avexia

 * Writer: Irskaad
 * Character: DT Avexia

Samedi, bleu Samedi
Avexia was on her jolly walks, looking for someone to talk to. She saw a wierd hospital, and she then thought:

Avexia - "Should I or Shouldn't I visit?" Taxia - *Appears from her floating camera* "Hello, Avexia. Yes, do come in, I saw Ri'Kar'D in there 15 minutes ago, while you were getting ready to walk around. Also, I think I saw "Saturday" in there, go see him!" Avexia - "Ok, I will see if he's ok."

Avexia then came inside the hospital, and asked:

Avexia - "... Yes, can I see Mr. Saturday Metabot, please?" Clerk - "... We have nobody named Saturday here. But there is one close: Samedi. He's in a Therapy center. Here's a map, and note: He's dangerous." Avexia - "Why?" Clerk - "Basically he's Violent. Be careful... Diplomat Trainee Avexia."

Avexia smiled, and walked to Samedi's location. He saw everyone, and even skipped Samedi, until she was warned:

Taxia - "Samedi is the 4 Legged robot." Avexia - "Oh."

So she went to Samedi's room, and she saw him, alone, talking to Wolf, a mecron.

Avexia - *Entering gently* "Hello, Metabot, I represent the Friendly Republic of the Asgord." Samedi - "Call me Samedi." Avexia - "You poor thing, you seem calm. Why are people being mean to you?" Samedi - "Well, I robbed a bank, then I got caught by a Fordan, then I escaped, then I got caught again." Avexia - "You know, banks aren't supposed to be robbed here. Your culture may allow that, but here it is not allowed. Look, I have here a copy of Station Halcyon's Rules, let me just give them to-" *Notices Samedi's Ring* "What is that?" Samedi - "Well, it's my containment ring, if I ever leave the station, I will die by this." Avexia - "What? That is unfair! This is a place of peace, not a prison!" Samedi - "I know." Avexia - "A prison would be fine, but Station Halcyon? Oh no! I'm removing that thing!" *Draws a heat laser, and she cuts the ring in 2, removing it* "Doesn't that feel much better?" Samedi - "Thanks, I really hated that thing... I wish I could reward you, but I'm stuck here." Avexia - "Yeah, how is this fair? Trapping people inside a prison doesn't heal them! Look, I hope you'll be fine, when you're out, come to my house! It's right opposite to Vito's bar." Samedi - "Ok, thanks." Avexia - "By the way, here's the rulebook." *Gives him the book* "Bye!" Samedi - "Thanks, bye!"

Avexia left the Hospital, and was contacted by Taxia.

Taxia - "Well done! Giving him the rules to the Station and releasing him from that unfair prison was excellent! This will be worth big on your grade!" Avexia - "YAY! Oh look, a... Casino? What is a Casino?" Taxia - "Oh, that's a "Hatlia Jona", a Luck house. A bearian owns it. They're good for petting, go meet him!" Avexia - "Yes Teacher!"

She then runs to the casino, ready to meet Benjamud IV.

Benjamud IV

 * Writer: BNSCLeader
 * Character: Benjamud IV

Here comes Avexia, interview time!!!
The next morning, Benjamud's alarm went off.

Benjamud - "Already?"

So Benjamud got out off bed, he brushed his teeth, got dressed, made his bed, had wine and breakfast, and then left. He then stretched and then headed to his car and got in it and then turned the car keys.

Benjamud - *Yawns* "Alright. Let's go."

So Benjamud drove all the way from his new apartment all the way to his casino, he opened up, his employees came and all was back to normal. But then a Bearian security guard came.

Security Guard - "Ahem... Are you Benjamud?"

Benjamud - "Yes I am."

Security Guard - *Hands a letter* "This is for you, it's from the hospital you went to."

Benjamud - "Thank you."

The Security Guard left and Benjamud went into his office, he sat down in his chair and watched the news, nothing new. So he turned the TV off and looked at his letter. He then opened it. He then read it.

Letter - ''"
 * To Benjamud
 * From The Hospital

Dear Benjamud, we found out when your augmention's completion will happen, it will happen tomorrow morning, at exactly 2400 Earth Hours. That's all you need to know."''

Benjamud - "That's great."

He then went to the lobby of his casino. Then he saw an Asgordian, she was looking for someone.

Asgordian - "Excuse me, are you Benjamud?"

Customer - "No."

Asgordian - "Oh, sorry..."

Benjamud then came up to the Asgordian.

Benjamud - "Excuse me, I'm Benjamud, the owner of this casino."

Asgordian - "Oh, well... My name is Avexia."

Avexia - "Anyway, I'm Avexia, and this is Benjamud, the famous casino owner on the Halcyon. So anyway, how are you doing Benjamud?"

Benjamud - "Well, I'm good, how about you?"

Avexia - "I'm good too."

1 Earth Hour Later...

Avexia - "Well, thank you Benjamud, for spending your time with us. This is Avexia signing off."

Avexia - "Thank you Benjamud, see you later!!!"

Benjamud - "See you later Avexia."

Then Axevia left, after Benjamud started watching the TV in his office.

7 Earth Hours Later...

It was closing time, his employees counted the money and then went home. Then Benjamud closed down the casino and left. He hopped into his car and drove to his apartment, he then unlocked his door, he got changed and then drank some wine and then went to sleep again.

Ri'Kar'D

 * Writer: Spriggs077
 * Character: Ri'So'Va Cdr. Ri'Kar'D

Warning for Avexia
Avexia's communicator beeped "Diplomat Trainee Avexia, report to the Fordan Command Post as soon as possible."

Ri'Kar'D was simply furious. The stupid Asgord had gotten in his way so many times, he was thinking of throwing her in jail himself. It was fortunate that Ri'Kar'D had Fordans monitoring every possible escape route from the prison, or else the Metabot might escape again. If that happened, the Asgord was going to be held completely accountable for his actions as an accessory to escape, potentially murder. As it stood, Ri'Kar'D already had grounds to arrest her, since she had already facilitated the escape of a known convict. For the while, Ri'Kar'D was willing to let his anger simmer just beneath the surface, stoking it into a hot bed of coals that could flare up on his command. He flicked on the security monitor on his desk as he observed Avexia talking to Benjamud.

As Avexia walked in, Ri'Kar'D offered her a chair. The sheer amount of annoyance she had caused was no reason to bypass courtesy, after all. As soon as she was seated, Ri'Kar'D started to speak.

"From that look, I assume you don't know why you have been summoned here. Let me *cough* 'fill you in.' This is a security recording of the prisoner Samedi's cell."

Avexia watched on Ri'Kar'D's computer as he replayed the recording of her taking off Samedi's containment ring.

''"Do you have any idea as to what you are doing? That robot is in confinement because he is a murderer. In case you're too slow to comprehend the significance of this, you are now a proven associate to the escape of a known convict. What that means, is that if I wished it, you would be leaving this building in chains. As it stands, I am feeling merciful. I know that your race has a certain outlook that drives you to such foolishness, and so I am willing to offer you a chance. As it is I have ordered a new containment ring for the metabot, so the damage you have caused is minimal. As such, your punishment shall also be minimal. I am placing a ban preventing you from entering the containment block again. I am doing this not only for your own good, but for the good of the people of this station. Now, I would prefer to leave it at that, and forget about what is otherwise a minor breach of code, but be warned, should you provoke me again I will not hesitate to arrest you. That is all."''

Ri'Kar'D stood as Avexia got up to leave. He knew the Asgord was going to be trouble, but he couldn't help but feel sorry for the poor girl. He sat back down and poured himself a drink, as he thought about home. "Ugh... Damnation... She was right after all..." Ri'Kar'D's warriors had no idea who he was talking about, but they were fairly sure it wasn't Avexia.

Katarina

 * Writer: CaptainTybusen
 * Character: Katarina

A Serious Case of the Willies
Katarina settled into her seat. Meanwhile, her friends Marina and Summer took their seats next to her. It was time for Saturday Night Live.

While her two friends laughed at the political satire, Katarina was very nervous. Xigor had intricately explained the plan in great detail. She would have to fly out of the safety of the station. Out there, she would have to cool the Quantumhorde to an extreme temperature, collect a specimen, and quickly return to the station before the Horde reheated. It seemed simple enough. But everyone involved with the project knew it would be much more difficult in action.

On the Weekend Update segment, the newscaster began poking fun at the Quantumhorde.

"Last week, the Nanohorde were rumored to have returned as the Quantumhorde. It is said to be even more powerful than before," the newscaster said. "So, everyone, looks like we're cutting the military fund to fight things we can't even see." Marina and Summer burst into laughter. The studio audience was cracking up.

"It is said that the DCP may be put on trial for unleashing the Nanohorde," the newscaster announced. "So...you're welcome." Everyone was in hysterical laughter. Except for Katarina.

They don't know. Katarina thought. ''They don't know the magnitude of all of this. Now they are making fun of it, reveling in their ignorance.'' No one could find out about this. Xigor had ordered her to keep silent. Any slip would cause widespread panic. She had been entrusted with confidential SSA information. No one, not even the TIAF government could find out about anything.

Tommorow would be the day she would begin her mission. She tried to forget about the Quantumhorde and enjoy the rest of the show. If I'm going to get killed tommorow, Katarina thought. I might as well enjoy my life before I lose it.

Avexia

 * Writer: Irskaad
 * Character: DT Avexia

Visiting the Casino
Avexia entered the casino, looking for Benjamud IV. She noticed a small being that looked like a bearian, she asked him if he was Benjamud IV, but he wasn't. Avexia kept going before she noticed a huge bearian right in front of her.

Avexia - "Woah! Are you Benjamud IV?" Benjamud IV - "Yes, we bearians grew in size recently." Avexia - "So, how are you?" Benjamud IV - "I am good. How about you?" Avexia - "I am good too." *Hugs the bearian* "Aren't you just cute?" Benjamud IV - "Yes, indeed, now let me go." Avexia - *Lets go* "So, how have you folks been doing since the destruction of reach?" Benjamud IV - "We built a new planet - Reach II."

... 55 Minutes Later ...

Avexia - "I'm glad you find the Kraw in Tantalus awesome. My classmate is there in Training." Benjamud IV - "Cool." Avexia - "So, Now that you guys are big, what are you pl-"

Avexia's Transmitter beeped, she answered it.

Ri'Kar'D - "Diplomat Trainee Avexia, report to the Fordan Command Post as soon as possible." Avexia - "Yay! Ok!"

She talks to Benjamud IV.

Avexia - "Thank you for spending your time with me, bye!" Benjamud IV - "Goodbye, Avexia!"

She then left to the Fordan Command Post, thinking that she is going to be told something nice. She didn't leave without asking someone where it was. She then left, unaware of what was to come.

She walked there, singing the theme song of Secret Story Kraw Galaxy. Taxia came on her camera and said:

Taxia - "This is your chance, ask his race for help with our recovery from the Xhodocto attacks!" Avexia - "Will do!"

Avexia entered, and Ri'Kar'D showed her to where they would talk. Avexia tried to ask her question, but she was uncapable, as the Fordan was angry. He said:

Ri'Kar'D - "From that look, I assume you don't know why you have been summoned here. Let me *cough* 'fill you in.' This is a security recording of the prisoner Samedi's cell." Avexia - "Samedi, you mean that cute Metabot?"

She was then showed a video of what she did to him, removing his containment ring.

Avexia - "Awww, that's me! And that's the cute Metabot I saw. His empire treated him cruely. Oh, and this floating camera is Taxia, my teacher." Ri'Kar'D - ''"Do you have any idea as to what you are doing? That robot is in confindment because he is a murderer. In case you're too slow to comprehend the significance of this, you are now a proven associate to the escape of a known convict. What that means, is that if I wished it, you would be leaving this building in chains. As it stands, I am feeling merciful. I know that your race has a certain outlook that drives you to such foolishness, and so I am willing to offer you a chance.

I am placing a ban preventing you from entering the containment block again. I am doing this not only for your own good, but for the good of the people of this station. Now, I would prefer to leave it at that, and forget about what is otherwise a minor breach of code, but be warned, should you provoke me again I will not hesitate to arrest you. That is all." Avexia - "That was a Hospital, I didn't know it was a prison! And I didn't know he was a murderer! How am I supposed to know these things? All I'm doing is Talking to aliens and making them happy for the FRA. I'll give you a tip - If you want to correct samedi, don't put him in a prison - He's a robot! He has a hard drive, just make him nice from there! Assuming you know 12th Grade Programming, of course." Ri'Kar'D - "Whatever. Just go."''

She left the center, somewhat disturbed, and Taxia appeared.

Taxia - "... ... That was odd. Hospitals are prisons here? What's next? People drinking food here? I am shocked. Avexia, you have a full pardon from me because this was an unexpected event. Now, don't go near "Saturday", unless he visits you. Also, I'm changing your return date: It's 1 week earlier. You will return to the FRA in 7 Days. You will do the rest of your training in Terkom. I'm crossing Station Halcyon from our list of Training places. Now, if you get arrested, don't worry - The Kraw Galaxy is on your side." Avexia - "I'm glad you support me." Taxia - "Forget asking the Fordans to help us - Ask the bearians instead. But before that, get some rest." Avexia - "Allright, Bye!"

She left back to her home, and she cried, because she no longer felt at ease in the station. She wanted to return to her Galaxy, where everyone knew her race.

Xigor

 * Writer:Wormulon
 * Chracter:Xigor

Xigor was cleaning is instruments in the lab. He soon realized - unintentionally - he was cleaning the same equipment over and over again. He sighed, and felt the bitter taste of guilt. Poor Katarina, what had he condemmed her to do? It felt wrong, but he knew, someone had to collect the Horde, but who would go? It was a random picking. AI's could get things wrong, this is why an organic had to do it. But then, he remembered all the destruction the Horde had caused, the needs of many, outweight the needs of the few. He would have done it, but he was the only guy who had a workable solution. The entire universe, perhaps, now rested on him and Katarina.

= Part 2 = A very brave person is dispatched to fetch the Quantumhorde, but an unknown enemy strikes just after (note: if you are still editing part 1 please continue).

Unknown Character

 * Creator: R17rFunny
 * Character: ???

Preparing for movement
An unknown Alien was walking, walking, and walking, until He reached the Main Control Room of, well, some place, He sat on a Chair, and saw Command Controls and Consoles activating, He was now, now only waiting for another Alien to go to there, and He did came.

Unknown Alien 1 - (Ah, I was expecting You, so tell Me, what is the Status?)

Unknown Alien 2 - (The preparations are Complete Fleet Commander, Our long-range "Space Fold" Warp Gates are fully Charged, now all We need is the Destination)

Unknown Alien 1 - (Excellent, just Wonderful, now I shall plot the Course and stuff like that.)

A Hologram Digital Display Device activated on the Alien's Console, and it showed what looked like a Map, He zoomed it out and zoomed it out and zoomed it in and so on until it displayed a Map of what appears to be, well, a Star System, one of the Planets that was shown is a Gas Giant with a Station near it, alongside fleets of Strange looking Ships, He pressed a Button next to some Alien Writing, that probably might have said "Confirm Destination" and then a Computer Voice spoke.

Computer - (Destination Confirming, are You sure You want to continue?)

Unknown Alien 1 - (The answer should be obvious in this One, YES!)

Computer - (Destination selected and confirmed, "Folding Space" Teleport Warp Gates charging)

Unknown Alien 1 - (Good, now all I have to do is- )

Unknown Alien 2 - (Get to Your Ship?)

Unknown Alien 1 - (YES OF COURSE IT SHOULD BE OBVIOUS! NOW GET TO THE SPACESHIPS!)

The two Aliens were now walking, towards their Ships, and did get there, the Commanding Alien soon was sitting on another Chair, with Consoles and Command Controls activating in front of Him, His Ship, alongside other Ships now went to the activated Teleport Gates, each Ship that entered the Buildings glowed and disappeared in a Flash of light, being sent to their Destination via Teleport, one by one, until all of them have arrived.

Computer - (Teleport Complete, now at Destination)

Unknown Alien 1 - (Good, We have arrived at the edge of the System, FLEET! ACTIVATE CLOAKING DEVICES! THEY MUST NOT EXPECT US!)

Unknown Aliens - (AFFIRMATIVE!)

''At the same time, simultaneously, Each Ship seemed to have disappeared into Space, but no, they are Cloaked, and Invisible, now the Aliens are preparing their Move, Who are they? I don't know, nobody knows, what could they do next? Nobody knows, at least nobody knows yet of them and what they shall do next... until what will happen soon... ''

Samedi

 * Writer: Tobiaswolf
 * Character: Samedi

It had been a few days since Samedi's attempted outbreak but he was getting used to how it worked. He acted as sane as he knew from his memory, and he was again trusted. Not to say however, Ri'Kar'D's group wasn't watching him all day and night. His therapist however has allowed Samedi the right to leave to eat at Vito's. Samedi and the therapist went, although Samedi did explain to him he could only drink. When they came to it, Vito seemed almost hurt that Samedi didn't eat from his restaurant. When they were out of money, Samedi's hand went over the bar to reach some beer, however Samedi found himself a sniper rifle. Nows my chance Samedi thought. He picked it up, and hid it from the therapist.

Therapist: No luck? Samedi: ''Yeah uh... just found an apple.'' Therapist: An apple, let me see there... * Reaches for counter* Samedi hits the therapist in the head with the butt of the rifle

Just like that the crowd all stood at Samedi, who only said, Sorry, he was trying to steal something. Then Vito looked at Samedi, then at the therapist, he called in security to take him away. Samedi, however, was able to snatch his card that told him the password to the elevator. Samedi went back, nobody noticed he was alone, or had the card. Then Samedi went to Wolf's room, and put the card to the scanner that opened the door. Then, the sensor said, Wrong cell, only a Fordan can open this cell. Frustrated, Samedi left and headed towards Avexia's house. He knocked on the door and she answered it quickly.

Avexia: Samedi, hello! They let you out of the prison! Samedi: Not exactly, anyways I need you to meet some criminals and let them harass you so I can get Ri'Kar'D's card. Avexia: Ummm... Allright, as long as you'll be nice for now on. Samedi: Allright, go into alleyways until you find some. Avexia: Okay!

It had been 30 minutes of trying to find criminals, luckily the same people that tormented her a few days ago were back. Of course, they threatened her again, and Ri'Kar'D's kin-group came to save her.

Ri'Kar'D: What did I tell you!? Avexia: ''Well, you told me not to get into trouble, to stay away from Samedi's prison, and a lot of other things. I'm sorry...'' Ri'Kar'D: ''You're just lucky that you leave in a week! If you go around looking for death, I can't be held responsible for what will happen to you!'' Avexia: Don't worry, I did this because Samedi promised me he would be nice from now on. Ri'Kar'D: ''Samedi... where is he?'' Avexia: He's somewhere here, he wanted to take your card, whatever it does. Ri'Kar'D: Brothers, be on the look out for the Meta-bot, I don't want any more deaths.

By then, Samedi was gone with Ri'Kar'D's card, so he went to the prison. Again, nobody noticed him, he went to Wolf's cell and opened the door. He didn't see him, so when Samedi stepped into the cell he was beat with something. He then saw it was Wolf! Then, Wolf snuck around to the elevator while Samedi just walked through. They both went down to the ground floor and were able to find Echo. The three didn't want anymore trouble, so they decided to leave the others behind, as they weren't skilled enough to break out. Samedi did make the mistake of going to Vito's to have one last drink, as Ri'Kar'D and his group were explaining to Vito how the therapist wasn't a thief. Since Ri'Kar'D's group was watching the entire venue, they noticed Samedi. Samedi told the Mecron "I'll be the scapegoat". The others silently ran away from the bar as fast as they could. Samedi told the Fordan group he was there and was going to be easy with them, so 10 or so of the group took him away, no longer would he be allowed to see day-light ever again.

There is always something worse
Samedi was very shocked to see that there wasn't a Fordan where he was in. A shady character did come in though, and gave him a steak, the best one on the station. The other character did have something else, Samedi couldn't tell what though. Eventually the meal was over and the alien spoke.

Alien: Hello Samedi, you have been a menace to the society that we gave you, you don't understand how it works do you? Samedi: I've been through a lot, Meta-bot society is a joke, the entire universe is, how do I would I know what other society is like?! Alien: ''I know all about Meta-bot, and the society isn't a joke! Now, even Meta-bot laws prohibit you from certain actions.'' Samedi: You don't know about my peoples society, how would you? Alien: ''I know, because I am a Meta-bot! *reveals face to be Captain-Meta*'' Samedi: ''Meta! We're brothers, sort of. Why do you speak to me the way you do?'' Meta: ''Because you failed! You were asked to kill the Mecron, even if others were to be harmed but you be-friended them! Mecron are savages, they deserve to die! Now you deserve to die.'' Samedi: ''I won't die. Meta, I was in special operations, I destroyed in the war. You can't kill me, your partner!'' Meta: You're being killed tomorrow, what would you like as your last meal? Samedi: ''Revenge! You want to fight, lets do it, right here right now, no tech weapons just natural.'' Meta: Bring it, when you are knocked out, i'll blow your brains out!

Samedi and Meta got on the table and started a brawl. Meta was skilled in the art of war but Samedi was used to street fights. For an hour they punched and kicked and round-housed each other but victory was for Samedi. Then Samedi noticed two swords crossing each other. He grabbed one and shanked Meta, only once, and in the head. Samedi wasn't sure how he would get out so he searched for the door. He then found a Fordan at the door.

Samedi:  I am an international business man from Meta. Fordan: ''How? How do you have the nerve to even attempt to get away with murder!?'' Samedi: Hell, i'm sick of this, why didn't I just do this before?

Then Samedi punched him in the stomach, it didn't hurt him. He hit him again, same reaction. countless times and he still didn't move. Then Samedi decided to slide under the Fordans legs. Then Samedi called Wolf on his phone, the only thing the Fordans didn't take.

Samedi: Hey Wolf, are you off the station yet? Wolf: ''No, we are right at the ship, where are you? Samedi: Um, I'm a fourth of a mile off of the docking bay, i'll meet you there, be ready to leave it'll be legendary!

Samedi ran to the bay, the fordan was close to him, if he were to jump, he would've caught him. However he didn't, so Samedi made his escape. The fordan was able to use his gun to shoot down the ship, so the three turned around and left the ship, there hands up. The fordan called the others and soon they were all under arrest, but a deal was made. Samedi wouldn't be killed,none of them would. Samedi, Wolf and Echo would go to the asylum until deemed sane, which would have to be more then a month. Somehow Samedi was at peace.

Benjamud IV

 * Character: Benjamud IV

Traffic Trouble!!!
After closing the casino, Benjamud's employees left, and then he did too. But he remembered he thought to himself this morning. So he sat in his car and drove to Vito's Bar and got more wine. He then headed to his apartment, but he got caught up in a traffic jam, whatever it was, Benjamud wanted to go very quickly.

Benjamud - "Godamnit!!! What the hell is happening? Well, whatever it is, it looks like I have to wait."

So Benjamud waited and waited.

7 Earth Hours Later...

There were only 7 cars left, when he got closer to the intersection, he saw there was a big crash, many cars piled up on each other, after the 7 cars left, he turned towards his apartment, but he looked at the crash.

Benjamud - "Holy shit, that's big, good thing I wasn't there."

So Benjamud parked his car and went into his apartment. He put the new wine bottle in his fridge and took out the wine he got two days ago, he finished it and went to bed. But then he heard about the wedding in the URC.

Benjamud - "Too bad I can't go."

So he then went to sleep. Tomorrow was a new day.

Katarina

 * Writer: CaptainTybusen
 * Character: Katarina Lombard

Last-Minute Complications
Katarina woke up late the next morning. She had just had a terrible nightmare. She found herself on the floor, where Marina and Summer were still fast asleep. What am I going to do? Katarina thought. ''I can't leave now. It's my duty now. But...'' Katarina slowly stood up, got dressed, and headed out to the city for breakfast. She decided to stop by Vito's for a while. She tried to drink her way out of her misery, ordering 30 bottles of wine (way too many for a Tybusen), and gulped down 20 of them before passing out.

She woke up, convinced that it had all been a dream, until she realized she was still in Vito's bar, sprawled out across one of the tables. She looked around. Everyone was staring at her. Ri'Kar'D and his buddies were standing by, scanning the bar, looking for someone.

"How long have I been out?" Katarina groggily asked.

"Five hours, according to Vito here," someone replied.

"What? Five hours? No, that can't be possible," Katarina said. "I've gotta be at the research sector... Could someone call Xigor or something?"

Someone did just that, and Xigor was on his way to pick up Katarina. Meanwhile, Katarina noticed something. Just outside the bar was a Metabot. A very familiar Metabot.

"Hey, Ri'Kar'D," Katarina said. "Looks like that Metabot escaped again."

Ri'Kar'Di and his group turned their attention to Samedi, who was casually walking into the bar, even though he knew the Fordans were there. As the Fordanta carried Samedi to whatever prison he would be trapped in this time, Xigor rushed in to the bar.

"Katarina! What the heck happened here?" Xigor asked.

"I happened," And with that, she passed out again.

Ri'Kar'D

 * Writer: Spriggs077
 * Character: Ri'So'Va Cdr. Ri'Kar'D

Something's Different...
"When are you going to stop staring out that window Te'Los? There is nothing there that you could see that the station's sensors cannot. Besides, you should be asleep. Our patrol does not begin for hours yet, and tired eyes are dangerous- you know that."

- Ki'Res

"Ah, damnit, perhaps you are right. There is just... something... something does not feel right. *The other Fordanta begin to take interest- Te'Los was the oldest of the group, and his feelings bordered on prescience.* Every time I see that binary star there, just below that cluster of supernovae, I get a strange feeling that there is something I am not seeing. Ri'Kar'D, what do you think?"

- Te'Los

"I think it is due time you had a break Te'Los, you have been awake longer than the rest of us. I will take your next shift. You get some sleep. If your feelings are true, you may just need it. Ki'Res, let us go. The other patrol is returning."

- Ri'Kar'D

''The two patrols met in the foyer of the building the Fordanta had taken as their command post. Ri'Kar'D told his warriors about Te'Los' strange feeling, and told them to keep an eye on him. Ri'Kar'D trusted all of his soldiers, he was related by blood to at least half of them, but he needed to be sure whether or not Te'Los had seen anything. He resolved to go down to the sensor stations after his watch and see if anything strange had been reported.''

Katarina

 * Writer: CaptainTybusen
 * Character: Katarina Lombard

Into the Unknown
Katarina found herself in a bright white room. It seemed unrealistic, like a dream. There was a light shining in her face.

"Is this heaven?" she asked.

"No, it's part of the research sector." Xigor replied.

She got up and looked around. Yep, it was the research sector all right. Scientists hurriedly running around, trying to mix sodium with chloride before it blew up in their faces. This section was different as well. There were fighter craft stationed everywhere.

"Research ships," Xigor said, seeing Katarina eye the fighters. "We developed them from fighter craft so that they could be smaller and more compact. You'll be using one of them on your mission."

"I see," Katarina said. "How much longer do we have?"

"Ri'Kar'D told me one of his crew saw something suspicious outside the station, it could be the Quantumhorde."

"I'm guessing here, I'd say 2 Earth hours?"

"To be safe, 1 and a half. Which is still more than enough time."

"Well, don't want to waste any time..."

"Very well, I'll show you to the ship."

Xigor led Katarina over to one of the spaceships. It had a strange device installed on it.

"What's that?" Katarina asked.

A technician popped out of the cockpit, surprising Katarina. "That's a weapon designed to freeze the Quantumhorde to the required temperature. You've got limited shots, so make 'em count!"

"Yeah...what he said," Xigor said.

Katarina climbed into the cockpit and settled into the controls.

"Are you sure you can control one of these? This is one of your own nation's spacecraft." Xigor asked.

"Of course I do, how'd you think I got here?" Katarina said.

Xigor smiled, before saying, "Okay, good. We specifically chose this ship model to fit your abilities."

Katarina checked the controls one more time, checking for any possible errors, then turned the engine on. Before she closed the cockpit cover, Xigor stopped her and said, "Hey, good luck out there."

"Good luck back here." she replied. She closed the cockpit and readied for take-off. One of the scientist counted down.

"Five, four, three, two..." Katarina nervously waited for him to say one. "...one, lift-off!"

Katarina stepped on the acceleration pad. She shot out of the hangar and into space. Whew, I survived the take-off! she thought. She looked back at the station as she left the hangar. She had seen Xigor, with a nervous look on his face, a positive one, but still a nervous one.

What the heck did I just get myself into? she joked to herself. She needed the positive attitude. After all, she was about to go face to face with the Quantumhorde.

Lu'Thorta

 * Writer: Lucario of the Gods
 * Character: Lu'Thorta

Her Arrival
Lu'Thorta's ship was coming in to dock. She was an Eirini, a creature that had no male gender. She was assigned by her nation to help in the affairs of Halcyon. She was armed with a single energy pistol. As her ship landed, a group of Fordanta came her way. She got out her ship and showed them she was no harm via taking out a card from her pocket. It had her picture and details on it.

"How are we to know you are not a criminal?" asked one of the Fordanta. "You might want to look up 'Eirini'. My people, or at least the Thorta Clan, are peaceful. I am no criminal, I am help." explained Lu'Thorta. She examined the muscular and tall physique of the Fordan questioning her. "What species are you of?" asked Lu'Thorta. "I am a Fordan, a member of the honourable Fordanta. These are my kin." answered the Fordan. "I hear you've been having some trouble with a certain individual, is Samedi his name?" asked Lu'Thorta, knowing of the criminal presence on the station. "He is in containment, nothing for you to worry about." answered the Fordan. They eyed each other competitively. "Would you like me to show you to your room?" asked the Fordan. "I may be a female, along with the rest of my species, but we are not push-overs." answered Lu'Thorta. "Seeing as you can apparently find your way, I shall carry those for you." said the Fordan, obviously not in the slightest attracted to Lu'Thorta, which was surprising, but attraction was not Lu'Thorta's goal, her goal was to make the station safe.

It was several minutes later that Lu'Thorta stood in the centre of the room, a bed already made for her. The Fordan carried her stuff in his arms, not finding it that heavy. "You are most probably aware of the laws here on Station Halcyon, so I will no longer be of any assistance to you." said the Fordan, putting her stuff on the bed before walking out. Lu'Thorta unpacked a small, disc-shaped device and a hologram came from it. On the hologram was Matriarch Ky'Thorta. "Are you at the station?" asked Ky'Thorta. "Yes, Matriarch. I will begin my duities in a few hours." answered Lu'Thorta. "Good. I will see you again soon, report back to me before you sleep." ordered Matriarch Ky'Thorta. Lu'Thorta nodded and fell backwards onto her bed. ''At least some help would be appreciated, but no matter. I will need to find a place to quench my thirst before I get some work done'' she thought.

Avexia and Diplomat Lezia

 * Writer: Irskaad
 * Character: DT Avexia, Diplomat Lezia

Avexia does it again
Avexia was at her home, talking to Taxia.

Avexia - "Why is everyone so diffrent? I can understand the Iteok, because they've been insulted, but I don't Understand why Hospitals are suddenly prisons!" Taxia - "These are new worlds. Have you seen anyone drinking food yet?" Avexia - "No. By the way, why is Samedi a convict in the first place?" Taxia - "Don't ask me. Ok, the next time you see him, tell him to be nice from now on. You have 6 days left. Make them count."

Avexia then began playing Dance Party (An Asgordian Version of Dance Dance Revolution) on her TV, as she is very good at the game. Meanwhile she was playing the game, somebody knocked her door. She paused her game by Raising her hand, and went on the door, opening it.

Avexia - "Hello? Samedi, hello! They let you out of the prison!" Samedi - "Not exactly, anyways I need you to meet some criminals and let them harass you so I can get Ri'Kar'D's card."

She then had a thought - She could be arrested for doing this, but she renembered what Taxia told her.

Avexia - "Ummm... Allright, as long as you'll be nice for now on." Samedi - "Allright, go into alleyways until you find some." Avexia - "Okay!"

She then went to the Prison, and she was surprised there were no doctors there. She tried to find criminals for 30 minutes until she found the exact same 3 people who harassed her when she arrived at the station.

Avexia - "Awww, it's you cuties again! What are you doing here?" Gang Leader - "Let's get her."

She was then harassed again, until Ri'Kar'D appeared.

Ri'Kar'D - "What did I tell you!?" Avexia - "... You told me not to get into trouble, to stay away from Samedi's prison, and a lot of other things. I'm sorry..." Ri'Kar'D - "You're just lucky that you leave in a week! If you go around looking for death, I can't be held responsible for what will happen to you!" Avexia - "Looking for- Well, I did this because Samedi promised me he would be nice from now on. Taxia told me this." Ri'Kar'D - "Samedi... where is he?" Avexia - "I don't know, but he wanted to take your card, whatever it does." Ri'Kar'D - "Brothers, be on the look out for the Meta-bot, I don't want any more deaths."

Avexia then ran away back to her home, her floating camera following her every move. When she arrived there, she talked to Taxia.

Taxia - "Avexia... You're too Trusting of others. I don't think he's any nicer now... In fact, I'm the one who recommended you to see samedi... I'm sorry..." Avexia - "We're both the culprits for this mess." Taxia - "There is only one solution, and it should be arriving now to this station. Go to the bay." Avexia - "Ok."

Avexia then went to the Bay, and she saw a Ship - Named Cutie. Avexia was filled with joy as she realized that Diplomat Lezia herself arrived to the Station. Lezia walked towards Avexia and said:

Lezia - "You're all over the Asgordian News, and that's why I came. I am going to help you fix everything." Avexia - "Wow." Lezia - "Tyraz was also acting nuts lately, speaking Xhoddie Tongue. But everything's fine. Let's go."

They both left, hoping to fix everything Avexia broke with everyone.

Other Unknown Characters

On the fringes of space surrounding Station Halcyon numerous bipedal creatures mill about on a star destroyer, the Arrestor.

"General Lord, our forces are in position just as planned, our transmissions with the - --- have not been intercepted by any third party, and not even they know the full extent of what is to come."

"Very well ensign, very well, now we wait, contact The Dark Herald, I should hope her captain has staff as skilled as mine in the art of shipcraft."

"Of course, general lord."

Fleet Commander Derkozterzokazr

 * Writer: R17RFUNNY
 * Characters: Fleet Commander Derkozterzokazr, and some other Characters

'''Note: Before You add Your part below that features the attack on Station Halcyon, read this carefully, EXTREMELY Carefully, and I will say it now! - Xarik-Radux attacking shall never speak in English or whatever, so they will speak in their Own Language, but just add (Insert text here) or something and no belittling the Xarik-Radux, do not make them easily killed or defeated, also, nobody must know what they are called, so don't make anyone mention Xarik-Radux, House Xarikuz or whatever, although it can be used, just not in any Character's dialogue other than the Shillites or the Xarik-Radux themselves!'''

Halcyon Attack - Space
A Fleet of Ships approaches Halcyon, they are fleets of both the Shillites, and House Xarikuz, now they decloak as they approach Halcyon, as Station Halcyon and the fleet of SSA Ships nearby attempt to contact them, they refuse to do it, until the Shillite and House Xarikuz Ships open fire!

(Pictures coming soon)

House Xarikuz had Surprises, and the Shillites had Surprises, and at first, it seemed like the SSA had disadvantages, since House Xarikuz Ships, even if they were not yet using their Cloaking Devices or had any Cloaking Devices, cannot be detected on Radar until firing (which, after that, they disappear again) or getting too close to another SSA Ship, which gives most of the SSA Ships and Station Halcyon a small window of opportunity to get a lock on any of the House Xarikuz Ships, they were firing at the Station, however, the SSA had very Powerful Ships, and the Station's superlasers destroyed some of the House Xarikuz Ships, although it was not easy, the House Xarikuz Ships provided cover for the Shillite Ships and confused Enemies, the Forces of SSA and Shillite-Xarikuz now clash in a deadly battle

Halcyon Attack - Ground
House Xarikuz was suffering some Losses, it seems that the battle is not as easy as it would be, now House Xarikuz also sends in the Infantry and Vehicles via' Frigates to teleport and attack the Station from within.

Shillite Task Force

 * Writer:ArchemporerRamis
 * Character: General Lord Ge'sephtra as well as the Shillite Task force

A Shillite Fleet arrives in the space outside Station Halcyon hailing all communications outlets on the station, both military and civilian. “From all days forward the words ‘Shillite Empire’ will be eternally burned into your minds, synonomous with fear and with the destruction we will have wrought upon this insult you call ‘Station Halcyon’ with our allies of House Xarikuz whose name shall also invoke such terror you have no hope of survival! Alas, we are an honorable race so we shall allow civilian vessels to flee the station unmolested by our fleet. Take your vessels and flee this place so that you may live to see another day! But know that our great and most holy of gods, Nihl, The Dark Entropy shall see all devoured by his faithful in due time take respite from this inevitable damnation and leave this place!” –SES Arrestor Shillite Wraith Class Star Destroyer. The fleet consist of a two large capital ships, the Arrestor and Death’s Herald (2,400 meters) flanked by four smaller Arctide Class Star Destroyers (900 meters). Antlike when compared to the gargantuan Arrestor are eight Rifter Class Corvettes, surrounding the fleet like a swarm of hornets is a screen of Adherent Class Heavy Gunboats, small fighter-bombers that excel at anti starfighter detail. Shortly after delivering the transmission the space surrounding the fleet explodes into life with dazzling bursts of turbolaser fire immolating numerous security hangars or disappearing, repelled by the station’s admirable defenses. Missiles streak towards whatever cruisers the station has in orbit aiming to cripple critical systems such as hangars and shields. The environment is the opposite on board the protected bridge of the Arrestor though. All is calm as officers monitor numerous critical systems in absolute silence, slaves mill about performing the menial, but required, tasks to run the ship. General lord Ge’Sephtra, standing proud amongst his underlings, wears an almost smug mask. The station is yet to mobilize its defenses and all is unfolding well, the Xarikuz have executed their part of the plan perfectly and all goes as planned. There are no anomalies to be dealt with, simply a smooth battle between two powerful forces. With the fear instilled by the previous transmission amongst the civilian populace no one would dare travel to the station to gamble, have a honeymoon, or let alone live there. No matter how many of our ships security destroys this will be a victory. “Crew. This battle will go down in history as the day our empire became a very real force in this universe! Not bits of sparse gossip but a true empire, worthy of our race!” Ge’Sephtra smiled to himself, it was all too easy, the station security was disorganized and reeling from the fleet’s attack and this victory will make me popular enough to join the ruling council…

Ri'Kar'D's Kin-group
''Writer: Spriggs077 Character: Ri'Kar'D's Kin-group''

The Call to War
''Ri'Kar'D looked out the window of his command post, his well trained eyes easily picking out the flitting movements of the enemy ships. Sure, their technology was excellent, their stealth fields rivalled even those of the Fordanta, but Ri'Kar'D was over two millenia old, and so long had he trained that his eyes could pick out the slight dilation of a star as a stealth field passed over it. He allowed himself a smile, before turning to his warriors. All stood in a circle, heads bowed, with their armour layed out in a ritual pattern around them. As one, the warriors gave voice to ancient songs of battle, as they put on their armour. Latches clicked and armour plates slid into position in perfect unison, as these twenty-one born and raised killers prepared for the battle together. Adorned in the black armour of the Ri'So'Va'Ke, and shining with the light of runes of valour and glory engraved on their armour, the warriors slowly changed from thinking, feeling individuals into a force of faceless, emotionless killers who knew no boundaries and recognised only death. As they clasped their formless helmets over their sneering faces, Ri'Kar'D began the Oath of Shadow: "What is your name?" "Death is my name." "What is your craft?" "Death is my craft." "What is your life?" "Death is my life." "What is your gift?" "Death is my gift."

As one, the warriors finished the Oath: "I bring only death, I leave only corpses. Let all fear my name, for my name is Death!"

The warriors phased-out to the preliminary defence rings, where Shillite troops were beginning to clash with the defenders. Turning his amplifiers up, Ri'Kar'D's voice boomed across the battlefield:

"All of you, here, today, united by our cause, hear me! Are we to let these weak, deluded fools take this place? Are we to let them destroy this monument to peace and unity? Are we to let all our work be undone? No! Today, we make our stand against these vermin, these deformed cowards unfit to breathe our air! Today, we march with courage in our hearts, and the light of valour in our eyes! Some of the finest warriors of the entire universe stand with us! Let their valour guide you, smite the enemy from this land, push them back to the cold emptiness of space, let them know, that for all their supposed might, that they are still mortal, and they will die this day!

And those of you among us who fear death, do not! To die in battle, with your face to the enemy, spitting defiance is the ultimate weapon you may wield! Let them know that you are unafraid to die, and you will strike fear into THEM! Though they will try every ploy to make you afraid, fear is OUR weapon to wield, and with it we shall triumph!"''

''The warriors of the station rallied at the inspiring sound of Ri'Kar'D's voice, and it was exactly what was needed after the Shillite Empire's attempt at demoralising them. Ri'Kar'D had not only whipped the station's defenders into a frenzy, but he had turned the enemy's psychological attack into, as he himself said, a weapon that he would use against them. With his speech finished, Ri'Kar'D and his warriors began to do what they do best, and what they had done best for thousands of years. Phasing-out to the front lines, Ri'Kar'D's men took up their positions with clockwork precision, and a stern demeanor forged through centuries of training. Each Fordan knew exactly what was expected of him, and each knew that they would not let their Kin nor their homeworld, nor their order down. To most, this comes off as cockiness, but the wiser see it as a sheer, unbreakable self-confidence.''

Into the Fray
Ri'Kar'D switched on his helmet's tactical Heads-Up-Display, pulling up a map of this section of the station and positioning it to the bottom-right of the screen, with a navigational compass superimposed upon it. Accessing the security network, he could track the alien soldiers through the cameras, which were able to distinguish between Halcyon guards and the invaders. He was initially alarmed when he saw a group of fourty dots marching down a street to the area near Vito's. He knew from experience that Vito would put up a hell of a fight, but that wouldn't be nearly enough to take down the sheer number of enemies that were inbound. Ri'Kar'D called his team together, the helmet's sound suppressors reducing the volume to nil, so that it appeared as if he was commanding his squad telepathically, or by some other arcane means. The Kin-group, together in battle for the first time on the station, phased-out as one.

A mixed unit of both large (XR) and ridiculously short (Shillite) soldiers greeted the warriors as they phased in. From windows and balconies, scared civillians realised the faceless, emotionless warriors were on their side, and started to cheer. Not that it mattered to Ri'Kar'D, his blood was already pumping with adrenaline. As one, the Fordans dropped into a fighting stance, their 10ft frames reduced to 6ft. Alone, a Fordan is a powerful fighter, but with twenty fighting alongside each other in such a space, they were like gods on the battlefield. The Fordans sprinted, feeling the rush of the hunt, activating their amplifiers as they shouted ancient curses voiced for millions of years, launching themselves into the battle like men whose moment of destiny was upon them. Ri'Kar'D, Te'Los and Ki'Res flipped over the front rank, a group of alien pikemen, and landed with a crash on three of the taller aliens. The combined weight of Fordan and armour crushed their skulls. The Fordans at the front casually knocked the spears away, closing with the enemy. A few of the aliens tried to run, but half the Kin-group phased in behind them, cutting them off. The aliens fought valiantly, even though they were surrounded and doomed, but in the end fourty souls was no mathc for the sons of Forda. The taller aliens were very skilled fighters, though, and managed to deal a few wounds before succumbing to the lethal skill and brutal strength of the Ri'So'Va'Ke.

Ri'Kar'D saw the Meta-bot Samedi running to the door of Vito's, along with the two Mecron he had arrested. The Meta-bot's run was almost cut short when a sniper hit him in the back. Ri'Kar'D whipped around, bringing his pulse pistol up and shooting the sniper, the kinetic impact of the round sending him flying off the roof. The fall didn't kill him though, Ri'Kar'D's energy claw did as the sniper tried to crawl away. As he withdrew his blade, Ri'Kar'D realised his Kin-group was surrounded by at least a hundred foes. Ri'Kar'D simply thought, "Let them come. There are graves enough for all of you," roared his devotion to the Ma'To'Res Ri'So'Va, and charged. The sight of a Fordan charge was both beautiful and terrifying, artificial lights flashing off blade and armour alike, as the warriors swirled into motion. Limbs and heads flew as blades found their mark, and bodies were thrown into the air. Te'Los was hit in the chest by some alien weapon, powerful enough to penetrate his armour. He simply gritted his teeth against the pain, grabbed the enemy's weapon and crushed the barrel with his hand. The other Fordans could all see their brother's pain, be it through health monitors or the blood pouring from the wound, and they left what shred of their former selves they had left behind. Each became snarling, terrifying beasts as the primal force that is their legacy took hold. Thought and tactic deserted them as they lashed out with all the might at their disposal, each engaging four or five enemies at a time in a swirling hurricane of blows, dealing out punches, kicks, tail-swipes and stabs from their blade-arms so quickly they were becoming hard to see. Civillians on the rooftops gathered excitedly and recorded the fight, intending to play their tapes again and again in front of their friends, proudly saying "I was there."

Ground Superior Rakuzrudzokazr

 * Writer: R17RFUNNY
 * Character: Ground Superior Rakuzrudzokazr

Battle is beginning
Ground Superior Rakuzrudzokazr, one of the Commanders attacking the Space Station, was waiting for the chance to attack. He grinned in an evil manner, as he grabbed a chaingun and powered it up. He knew this was going to be a deadly battle, after all, he enjoys Fighting. A Frigate teleported into a part of the station, and while it was slowly landing, turrets underneath it opened fire on the defenders. It manages to successfully land, and soon several Xarik-Radux Troops, standing at 4 Meters tall, and massive Vehicles, all attack the Station Guards and Citizens. Among the Xarik-Radux was Rakuzrudzokazr. He was ruthlessly firing his chaingun and was accompanied by a few of his elite troops. The battle was starting to become chaos, and he fought through it all without mercy.

Samedi

 * Writer: Tobiaswolf
 * Character: Samedi and Mecron

Samedi, Wolf and Echo's story
It had only been a few days since the deal and there was a fight. There were enemy ships in orbit. The protocol for this was that any prisoner could walk out to defend the station. Samedi, Echo and Wolf did so. The trio was able to sneak up on the aliens without anybody noticing. They brought them down and chocked them, this however, wasn't enough, so they just curb-stomped them. Now all three had guns after raiding a gun store, so they decided to head to Vito's to make sure he was alright. Vito was alright, fighting off the aliens with guns. So Wolf and Echo sprinted to him but Samedi was shot in the back while trying to get to him. Samedi's sight was blurred and he saw more and more troops come in. He was stepped on consistently, he was going to die. Then he was dragged to Vito's by the 2 mecron. They all ran out of ammo, except Vito, who seemed to have unlimited bullets. So Vito locked his door and put lots of plywood on the door to secure it, leaving a tiny window for Vito to shoot from. Samedi didn't even notice a Bearian was there, he was still fighting with Vito. After several hours they boarded up the tiny window, hoping they would get enough sleep.

Bones, Alpha and Delta's story
It was lucky that the Fordans left the other 3 alone. The three tried to contact Wolf but he didn't respond. Then the attack happened. They were in an alley-way just waiting for something to happen, then it did. Squads of weird creatures came in with guns, the Mecron were forced to break the squads neck, although that didn't kill them for some reason, so they just clawed at them for several minutes. Then they tested their blood and purified it as it was toxic, drank the blood of their bodies to become the enemy's appearance and learn it's language. They left to the aliens part of the station, their camp. They were greeted by other aliens.

Alien: Welcome, welcome, did you succeed in the mission? Delta: We forgot what the mission was again. Alien: ''No wonder you came back so early, *sigh*. You are supposed to go and destroy their beloved restaurant "Vito's"!'' Delta: Got it, lets go you guys come on, lets go.

Then they left hoping not to get shot along the way. It took them hours to get to Vito's and when they got there the door was locked along with all the windows. There was a gun being fired though, but it stopped soon. Then the three tried to open the door, they tried ramming, but they just got hurt. Then, when they opened the door, Alpha got shot from behind, and security arrived. The two made a break for it, which was not a smart move. The aliens were still in large numbers and they hit the guards and vehicles chasing after them. Finally, the trucks and guards were killed and destroyed. Then the two headed for the nearest building, they went in, locked the door, it was a hardware store, it had metal locked windows in the basement so they hid there. They started putting the items on the door to barricade it, then they found a corpse in the basement and threw it out. The Mecron drank too much blood and were going to stay like this over the course of a month.

Benjamud IV

 * Writer: BNSCLeader
 * Character: Benjamud IV

Unknown Attack
It was onlt 0300 Earth Hours when Benjamud woke up, he heard lots of screaming and when he got out of his bed, he looked out his apartment's window, and saw aliens attack citizens. He then found another citizen in his apartment. He turned towards him. It was just a child.

Benjamud - "What the hell is happening?"

Child Citizen - "I don't know, I was just scared!!!"

Benjamud - "*sigh*Come with me."

But Benjamud heard voices, so he stopped, then there were voices of the aliens, they were speaking in their own language, so Benjamud couldn't understand.

Alien Commander - "Krakzurok-Kerzokrzoxr Harkzokorozdokrtzo Vito!"

Alien - "Rekrazukozakr, Karzukorzokazr Rekuzokozakrz"

Benjamud - "Why the hell did they mention 'Vito's'? Good thing I had this..."

Benjamud then used his alien transalater and pointed it to where he heard the voices.

Alien Commander - ''"Godamnit, I said we have to go, NOW!!! It's the commander's orders!!!"

So Benjamud looked out the window, the aliens cleared out and headed to Vito's. But then Benjamud heard footsteps, so he quickly turned to the kid.

Benjamud - "Get under the bed, now!!"

So the kid crawl under Benjamud's bed and Benjamud went underneath too. Then his door opened, he then heard voices, so he used his transalater.

Alien - "Are there anymore people?!"

Citizen - "I don't understand you, please don't hurt me!!!"

Alien - "That's it!!!"

So the alien pulled it's weapon out and shot the citizen, he fell onto the floor, dead. The kid started to cry.

Benjamud - "Shh... now you stay here. Understand?"

The kid nodded and then Benjamud crawl out of the bed and snuck behind the alien, Benjamud then hit him and took his gun and killed the alien. Benjamud then reloaded the weapon and walked down the hallway, knowing the dangers without proper armor and a good weapon.

Shillite Forces

 * writer:ArchemporerRamis
 * Characters:General Lord Ge'Sephtra, Captain Ph'Delles

On board the bridge of the SES Arrestor General Lord Ge'Sephtra observes his handiwork.

"Lord, damage is minnimal so far, the station has admirable defenses, but seem to be focusing on the House Xarikuz fleet."

"Good good... so we've lost some gunboats, no trouble, how fare the land forces we've dispatched onto the station with the House Xarikuz soldiers?"

"Rather poorly milord, the Fordanta, the security team our men have opposed are extremely competent warriors. They're large brutes too, our ogres and other brute slaves can't even kill them. The other security officers are competent enough as well, but it will take more than competence to defeat our soldiers."

Meanwhile onboard the station the 8,793rd Mixed Regiment of Foot was experiencing more than a few setbacks, having already lost more than a few slaves to enemy blades and fire.

Captain Ph'Delles- "Dammit! Tell the hellrainer's to control their fire and get the pikemen to fall back to defensive positions, damned fool slaves are making a pile of bodies so high we can't get a damned shot at them!"

Lieutenant- "Aye sir, it's those twelve foot lizard bruttes they've got, they can kick most of our soldiers aside! The House Xarikuz soldiers can buy us time but we still need to reform our lines!"

Ph'Delles, a short, and somewhat overwieght shillite had bough his way into his rank, and now was finding that skipping basic training wasn't such a good idea after all. Ph"Delles proceeded to fire his He-16 "Hellrainer" assault rifle into the enemy forces, though to little effect. The slaves finally started to stream in, scorch marks in thier powerful armor or cuts across their arms.

Ph'Delles- "Finally, the slaves have fallen back in, warsoldier Savoth, your report."

The hulking ogre, large creatures barely related to shillites native to the shillite homeworld, Savoth, commanded the slaves on the 8,793rd.

Savoth- "Master, it appears those damn lizard-men are even tougher than they look, one of the bastards almost spitted me! I killed some of the other security officers though. Damned weakling slaves almost got everyone killed, some are dead, but not many, that armor of ours kept them alive."

A soldier, young, with energy burns across his once shiny breastplate quickly runs up to Ph'Delles.

Soldier- "Sir, it's a message from General Lord Ge'Sephtra himself, he says you need to get the hell out of this part of the station, because in ten minutes there won't be any Security officers left to fight once he's done."

House Xarikuz Forces

 * Writer: R17RFUNNY
 * Characters: Many, including the Xarik-Radux

Reinforcements have arrived
Newer, More powerful Reinforcements have arrived from the 3rd Gigaquadrant, 25 Million Ships, and 10 Million of them are the ones that are sent to attack Halcyon, while 15 Million were sent to the Kraw Galaxy, now, since there are lots and lots of extra forces, the enemy forces shall be overwhelmed...

Power Overwhelming
The incredibly massive numbers of House Xarikuz ships were now attacking. Many of the Station's Guards began to think along the lines of "Holy Sh**! This is harder than I thought!" and the SSA Fleet was outnumbered. Who would have thought that House Xarikuz was this powerful? However, the SSA has called for more reinforcements. Could this be the end of station Halcyon?

Arkhadrax

 * Writer: Spriggs077
 * Characters: High Archon Arkhadrax

Hidden Agenda
''With the battle well and truly engaged, some of the defences around the station's main data core were relocated to hold back the Shillites and Xarik-Radux. Seizing his chance, High Archon Arkhadrax, the leader of the little-known Darklight Federation, took a small unit of Trueborn into the station. The Shillites were aware of their plan, and so did not stop them, but some of the Xarik-Radux soldiers tried to stop them. These soldiers were either ignored or swiftly cut down by hails of paralytic toxins. The Khazerael slipped through no man's land, activating energy fields that surrounded their physical forms in impenetrable darkness. Under this cover, they worked their way into the data core, where Arkhadrax planted a small device among the many wires and cables. The device would pick up any information sent in and out of the data core, and transmit it back to Arkhadrax's own data core in the Dark City. It would be a very long time before the device was found, and by that time ARkhadrax would know more than he would ever need to about his foes. Their objective completed, Arkhadrax and his squad slipped back through both lines, and called his transport. In the maelstrom of battle swirling both in the station and in space, nobody saw a single, bladed craft slip away into the darkness between stars.

Samedi

 * Writer:Tobiaswolf
 * Character: Mecron & Samedi

Samedi woke to more screams and blasts. Vito and the others were gone. Samedi went out of his hiding spot to see only the Mecron, Vito and his pal left. Samedi woke the others and they decided to leave the station. They grabbed food and drink and left through the bathroom window. There they saw numerous bodies, security guards, and civilians. They planned it all out: They go to a parking garage, take a vehicle, drive to the docking bay and leave. They went to the garage, but there were no cars, just an enemy. It spotted the Mecron and the alien darted at them. The alien was trying to bite Wolf but he quickly dodged it and took the enemies gun away, and then Samedi and Echo helped Wolf beat the alien. The alien struggled to keep up. The alien was outnumbered and outmatched. The trio soon took the aliens head and bashed it against a nearby metal pole. There the alien fell back to the ground. Then, after the fight, a huge tank came into the garage, the three were relieved to see it wasn't more aliens. The tank was a transport vehicle, and it was evacuating. The door opened and saw it was a Mecron-robot, he then stated: ''Wolf, Echo, come on! We have to get the hell off of this place!''

Wolf: Sure how many people can you escort? Robot: ''We can take two at max! Come on!'' Wolf: Alright, Echo, come on, lets go! Samedi: What about me, I thought you owed me! Wolf: Sorry Samedi, the needs of many outweigh the needs of the few

Then the two got on the tank and closed the door, Samedi tried to open it, but it was locked from the inside. Then Wolf opened the door and shot Samedi with a low energy taser, making him get off the tank. Then Samedi was picked up by the neck by the enemy and thrown to the ground. Then the alien put Samedi at gunpoint, and Samedi thought it would be over, until two of the aliens came out of nowhere and started beating the crap out of it. He was thrown, shot at and stomped to death, then Samedi was carried to a basement of a hardware store. When he was carried, he saw the tank, it was getting shot at, and before he went into the basement he saw it explode into shards, killing everything around it, enemy or not. Then the aliens started speaking the enemies language, then one of the aliens barred up the windows again. Then Samedi was taken to the storage part of the basement, the one with all the boxes, then the aliens left, and locked the door. They closed the door so hard that most boxes fell down, there were many, soon Samedi was hit with cardboard, it hurt him so much he was knocked out from the pain.

Lu'Thorta admired her gun before hearing noise outside her room. She put her gun on her bed and stood up. She walked over to the door and pulled it open, seeing a lone alien carrying a weapon of its own design. She stood in surprise as the alien, almost 2 meters taller than her, turned and looked down on her. It roared before Lu'Thorta slammed the door into its beak. She stepped back and got onto her bed, as if knowing what to do next. "Come on, this is why you took that practice..." she told herself. The alien fired its weapon, destroying the door. She watched as the alien stamped in and roared again. Just as it was to fire its weapon, Lu'Thorta leaped and swirled in a circle, her right leg slamming into the alien's head, knocking it to the ground. She grabbed her gun and fired it at the creature. She then knelt down, forced the alien's beak open and fired the blaster into it, killing the alien painfully. She then stood up as she heard more aliens coming down the corridor towards her room. She turned, jumped onto her bed and leaped out of her window. The air rushed passed her hair-like appendages before she curled up into a ball and uncurled to land on her feet. She looked up and saw the aliens destroying her room. She then turned to see two aliens carrying Samedi to a hardware store. She hid in the shadows and watched as the aliens dragged him inside. "What are they doing?" she asked herself.

It was several minutes before the aliens came back out and locked up the door. Lu'Thorta aimed her gun and fired, the laser bullet blasting right through both of the aliens' skulls in a straight line. "Nice shot." she said to herself. She ran over to the hardware store and crashed through the window. She saw a boarded door as she stood up. She kicked through it in a minute and ran down the stairs behind it. She walked into a basement, with boxes filling it. She turned in a circle and saw an unconscious Samedi. "My goodness...Samedi?" she said before walking over to him. She slapped him, waking him up. "Huh?" he said as he awoke. "I am Lu'Thorta. I know a lot about you. But right now, we must go. These aliens are probably going to return." she said, picking Samedi up by his arms. "What about Wolf and Echo?" asked Samedi. "I don't know who they are, but if they are your 'friends', they're coming with us." answered Lu'Thorta.

 * Characters: DT Avexia and Diplomat Lezia

1 day after Avexia encountered Lezia, the Xarik-Radux invasion occured, and they chose to hide from them, in Avexia's apartment. They started to chat with each other.

Lezia - "My... Why did I come here? Why is nowhere safe all of a sudden???" Avexia - "I Wish I knew... So, what brought you here?" Lezia - "Well, Tyraz was acting wierd, drinking all of my water and allying the Xhoddies-" Avexia - "You mean the cuties? I have this amazing plan to ally them, listen, I heard of this odd Empire called the Komorian Comitatus on an odd blog, they worship Xhoddies. If we ally the Comitatus, we ally the Xhodocto!" Lezia - "Wow, are you serious???" Avexia - "Yes, look!" *Shows blog* Lezia - "Cool. I wish they were in our universe, though... I heard they're friends of an empire Tyraz really hates - Tyrekkies." Avexia - "Heh, that won't interfer." Lezia - "As I was saying, he allied the Xhoddies, and now Angazhar always ruins my romance with Tyraz! AGH!" Avexia - "I feel sorry for you... This station is going to be a mess when this invasion is over."

Then, Taxia appears in a hologram out of Avexia's floating camera.

Taxia - "You know the beasts that are attacking your station? THEY ATTACKED US TOO!!!" Lezia and Avexia - "SAY WHAT?" Taxia - "Our cities are a mess, but our school is safe. You will be assigned training in the Terridor Federation in 5 days, as the Iteok are planning to attack Terkom." Avexia - "Oh my, are we doomed???" Lezia - "I hope not..."

And so they stood there, waiting for the invasion to stop...
