Fiction:Alpha-Phradox Grox War/Prelude

First Contanct
Phradox Grox Drone - We have detected an unknown ship approaching I will prepare the scanners. Alpha Grox Drone - Unidentifed ship, identify yourself at once! Phradox Grox - ''Demands not accepted. Identify yourselves unknown ships.'' Alpha Grox Drone - We are the Alpha Cyber Collective, Now identify yourselfs and surrender! Phradox Grox - ''Demands not accepted. Analysis reveals that Grox copies with unstable emotional complexes are present on the foreign ship. Assimilation would create inefficiency. Conclusion: Destroy.'' Commandant Ghorie - ''I am ghorie of the Alpha Marinox. You shall be destroy for your words against us. Your drones shall become ours and your knowledge will be added to our own. Resistance is Futile!'' Phradox Grox - ''Analysis reveals that a Marinox copy leads the hostile forces. Can prove useful. Conclusion: Capture for study.'' Ghorie - ''If You can survie the attempt, Open Fire! ''

His Cube fires a green laser at the Phradox Grox ship.

Phradox Grox - ''15% damage to forward shields. Hostile weapons are stronger than expected. ''

Phradox Grox ship fires a string of several beams, disabling a few key points on Ghorie's ship.

Ghorie - ''Fire again! And give the shields and a little more power!'' Alpha Grox Drone - Yes Sir!

Two more beams shot out at the Phradox Grox ship. The Phradox Grox ship dodged and moves within 3 kilometers of the Alpha Grox ship and activates its point-defense turbolasers, doing some damage to the Alpha Grox ships' surface and Phradox Grox drones beamed aboard Ghorie's ship. Ghorie smiled evilly.

Ghorie - ''Simple drones? What an insult! Prepare to taste my blades!''

Marinox Commandos beamed aboard ship, leading a force of about 50 Dronox.

Commando - Dronox, disable their interior mechanisms, we will locate the command center and eliminate leadership. Ghorie - Troops, prepare all Conqrix and assimilated races for battle, and unleash the Alpha Goorkien shock troopers. Phradox Dronox Commander - ''Unknown species detected. Begin information assimilation.''

One of the Marinox Commandos takes a battle stance and enters a room full of Alpha Goorkiens.

Alpha Goorkien 1 - ''Raawwwrargh! Destroy! Must kill!''

Three Goorkiens charge at the commando, their blades charged with energy. One of the Commandos jumps over a charging Goorkien, landing on another, and stabbing it in the head while the other two scaled the walls and disappeared through the ceiling panels.

Ghorie - ''Targets located! Can a squad of Dronox and slaves get down there at once!?

Six Dronox troopers, one commander, and nine assimilated creatures make their way to the room as a voice coming from nothing spoke to the entire Alpha Grox ship at once.

Commando - ''Your fight is futile. Your time will come, little children.''

A Commando dropped from the ceiling and decapitated the Alpha DronoxCcommander before rejoining the other Commandos and disappearing.

Alpha Dronox Trooper - Targets gone, Commandant, sir. Ghorie - Search for them! Trooper - Yes sir.

Assimilation
Phradox Dronox Commander - We have assimilated 20% of their data successfully.

The Commander stabbed an oncoming Dronox.

Commando - ''Excellent. Continue the assimilation while we rid them of most of their soldiers.'' Alpha Marinox - Not today, little Commando.

An Alpha Marinox stabbed one of the Commandos in the back.

Commando - AAAAAAAHHHH!

He fell to the ground and the body was teleported back to the Phradox Grox ship. The other two Commandos turned and attacked the Alpha Marinox, killing him, and hid as they hear more approaching.

Alpha Marinox 2 - Where is the Brother? Alpha Marinox 3 - I do not know, sister, keep searching. Alpha Marinox 2 - Roger that.

The two Alpha Marinox moved on as the Commandos in hiding engaged cloaking devices.

Alpha Marinox 2 - ''I think we should engage thermal vision. These are inflitration units we're up against, after all.'' Alpha Marinox 3 - That would be a logical course of action.

The commandos hid behind two metal surfaces to mask their heat signatures.

Alpha Marinox 3 - I thought I heard something. Alpha Marinox 2 - ''Fool, we have no time for this. We should link up with a Dronox Squad.''

The Commandos prepared their ranged weapons and told a group of Insectrox to distract the Alpha Marinox, and an Alpha Goorkien moved towards the two Alpha Marinox.

Goorkien - Targets not found, Must smash them! Phradox Insectrox - ''New orders received.

Two Insectrox turned towards the Alpha Marinox.

Phradox Insectrox - DESTROY! Alpha Goorkien - SMASH!

The Goorkien grabbed one of the Insectrox by its legs and began stabing his sword into the creature's body. The Commandos fired ranged shots at the Goorkien's head, killing him and decloaked to engage the Alpha Marinox.

Alpha Marinox 3 - ''Green cousins. What fun we shall have when I kill you.''

They both aimed their Plasma Guns at the two Commandos.

Commando - You are not very effective soldiers. Alpha Marinox 2 - How so? Commando - You neglected to kill all your enemies.

The remaining Phradox Insectrox stabbed an Alpha Marinox through the chest and sliced at it's legs, killing it.

Alpha Marinox 2 - Die!

The last Alpha Marinox jumped on the Insectrox and stabbed it through the neck, sperating it's spinal cord from it's skull. The Commandos took advantage of the moment and were gone when the Alpha Marinox looked back up.

Ghorie - Run a scan through the Insectrox's minds and try to find some information on their movements. Alpha Marinox 2 - As you wish.

She stabbed her claws into the Insectrox and began to extract information.

Commando - ''You Marinox do not deserve the name Alpha. Even the most rudimentary Grox drone knows that when a soldier dies, its memory is erased.'' Ghorie - ''Phradox Scum! I have your troops sourounded, your postion hopeless! Make peace before I kill you all!'' Alpha Marinox 2 - ''Grrr, I forgot about that. I'll gather more troops, while your toying with them Commandant.'' Phradox Grox - ''Hope is so fragile Commandant. We do not need it.''

The Phradox Dronox troops are teleported back to their ship.

Ghorie's Attempt
Phradox Dronox Commander - ''There are nineteen of the hostile shock troopers approaching our position. The probability of surving a battle is approximately .5%. The data is 87% assimilated, and the shock troopers will arrive in two minutes. The largest amount of information that can be assimilated is 91%. New course of action is needed. Phradox Grox - ''Acknowledged. Assimilate 90% of the data and then return to the ship.''

The Commandos entered the room that Ghorie is in.

Commandos - ''Do not attack. We are armed with explosives enough to destroy this room in one blast if we are killed.'' Ghorie - ''Is that so? Sergant, send your Marinox aboard their ship!''

A squad of Alpha Marinox teleport on board the Phradox Grox ship.

Commando - ''Be mindful Commandant. The Alpha Cyber Collective is less than a year old. We have existed for 200,000,000 years. We learn faster, expand faster, and think faster. You want peace from us? Then surrender.''

The Marinox beamed back to the Phradox Grox ship.

Ghorie - No one steals from me!

Ghorie transported on board the Phradox Grox ship as well.

Ghoire - ''Come out and fight! All troops, return to the cube! You will not survive with that knowledge!'' Phradox Grox - ''You are too late. Almost 70% of the knowledge has been transferred to the homeworld. Even if you did stop it, we would still have most of the information.''

A robot approached Ghorie with an orb of energy around it.

Ghorie - ''Gargh! I will destroy this entire ship! You will pray for mercy by the time I am done with you!

Ghorie fires an EMP Laser at it, disabling it's shields, before slashing off it's head.

Ghorie - Face me yourselves, cousins!

Laughing is heard so loud, every Alpha Grox drone flinches in pain.

Ghorie - Laugh it up, waste of machinery! Phradox Grox - ''You consider yourselves high enough to be our "cousins"? *more laughing* We have fought for millions of years. You think you know war? We fought the All-Powerful Juggernaut before your creator was so much as a single cell.''

He moved through the ship, attacking any Phradox drone he seaw and seven robots appeared, and activated their weapons, firing them at Ghorie. He dodged and slashed away at them. The leading robot in gold armor was immune to his slashes and knocked him into the far wall.

Ghorie - ''Our masters where created alongside Cadus Clett's scum-like species! The Alpha and Ugandals have been at war since our birth! We did not fight, because the Juggernaut are part of our plan!''

He fired a missle at one of the robots, causing it to explode. Laughing so loud, everyone on both ships is immobile for a few seconds from the pitch of the piercing sound.

Ghorie - Laugh while you can! Phradox Grox - ''BELOW YOU? YOU DID NOT FIGHT THE JUGGERNAUT BECAUSE YOU WERE COWARDS! WORMS!''

Ghorie began laughing so hard, that he was rolling on the floor.

Ghorie - ''Surely, you jest? We where growing. We wanted real foes, besides, we had a reason for not attacking the Juggernaut! We waited till Cadus Clett and your allies drove them off, and we attacked one of their ships, abosrbing it's knowledge, as it was cut off from the rest, but fighting them head on was below us.'' Phradox Grox - ''The Juggernaut was a near all-powerful civilization that flattened entire universes in the time it took for you to be cloned to life! The ship you attacked was clearly not manned by any soldiers. They crushed all of the resistance except for us and the Ughandalorians. They wiped out an entire galaxy of life in seconds. You know NOTHING of the Juggernaut!'' Ghorie - ''We have succeded in fighting the Ugandals, Barda Clett is my ultimate rival. And these squabbles always end in draws. You only have seen a portion of out powers. Besides, you are wrong. The Meeno Grox know EVERYTHING about them.'' Phradox Grox - ''Your kind are mere children. You pose NO threat to us.'' Ghorie - ''We have exsisted just as long as the Ugandals. In fact, they where created after us. We simply destroyed our creators and aborbed their advanced technology. All while the Ugandals where Building their first stone age tools!''

Some of the ship's automated defenses activate, firing at Ghorie, who activated a bubble shield, causing the attacks to go in random directions. Ghorie then saw a Commando fleeing into another room.

Ghorie - Come back coward!

Ghorie chased after him, and entered an empty room as the door closed behind him, which he was unable to re-open.

Ghorie - ''Ah traps. I love traps.''

He began feeling the walls, searching for a weak point.

Phradox Grox - You are going to really love this one.

The wall opened up, and sucked Ghorie into space as the Phradox Grox ship escaped.

Ghorie - ''Darn them. Ah well. Cube! Pick me up at once. We're at war, and King Terrox won't be happy at all.''

The Cube picked up Ghorie.

Ghorie - Contact the Evermind and Terrox at once!

Nine
He made his way to communcations center of the ship, where he notices a Phradox Dronox hiding in some machinery.

Ghorie - Ooohh, An enemy Dronox!

The Dronox tried to hide amongst more machinery.

Alpha Marinox - Shall we destroy it sir?

Ghorie jumped in front of it and held it down.

Ghorie - ''Assimilate it! We could get some information from it!'' Dronox - ''ENEMY! ENEMY! SELF-DESTRUCT! SELF-DESTRUCT!'' Ghorie - Oh no you don't!

However, the Dronox's self-destruct does not work for some reason.

Ghorie - ''Hehhehe! Assimilate it!''

The Alpha Ugandalorian slave does so, injecting it with Alpha Grox nanonites.

Dronox - AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

The Dronox gasps and falls unconscious as his skin color changes.

Ghorie - ''Ahh, I can feel his intelligence bonding with ours already..

Although the Dronox was assimilated, its knowledge does not directly upload into the Alpha Grox collective mind for some reason.

Ghorie - What is going on?

The Dronox regains consciousness and sits upright.

Ghorie - You, Alpha Dronox unit T13Ib6, assess this unit and bring his knowledge to his brothers. Alpha dronox - Yes sir.

A mysterious voice appears from nothing in the Commandant nd Dronox's heads.

???? - That will not be neccesary.

The Alpha Dronox lifts the Former Phradox Drone up and begins to walk away.

Ghorie - What is this now? ???? - I said, THAT WON'T BE NECCESARY!

The Alpha Dronox carrying the newly assimilated one is blown into the wall.

Ghorie - Identify yourself at once!

???? - I am Nine.

ghorie - Nine? Nine... the Phradox Grox rebel leaders!?

Nine - I have no idea what that name means. I are only a simple Alpha Dronox.

Ghorie - Were you the one we assimilated? Nine - ''What does... assimilate mean?''

Nine fell on the ground, writhing in pain.

Ghorie - What is the matter Dronox 9? Nine - ''So... much... knowledge... and nothing to... do with it... AAAAAHHHH!'' Ghorie - ''All Dronox have The knowledge you have recieved, and they are fine. There is plenty you can do, Dronox 9.'' Nine - AAAAAHHHHHHH! Ghorie - Quit screaming, or I will make you stop.

Nine fell unconscious and immediately regained consciousness.

Nine - What happened? Ghorie - ''What do you mean, Drone? you where sreaming in pain about having knowledge and having nothing to do with it.'' Nine - ''Ah yes. Knowledge. So much... knowledge. This much knowledge, it is enriching. If only the rest of my kind could experience it.'' Ghorie - ''They may not. Theya re made to fight, they do not think unless required.'' Nine - ''Hmm. Made only to fight? That seems rather limited.'' Ghorie - Some Work as workers and Scientist helpers, but theya re simple drones, nothing more. Nine - ''Wait... what's wrong with my skin?'' Ghorie - It's grey and purple, the color of Conqrix in the Alpha Armour. Nine - ''It isn't green! WHY IS IT NOT GREEN!''

Nine's skin changed to be partially green, and partially the Alpha Grox colors.

Ghorie - ''What do you mean green? your old Phradox colors...Wow! What is happening to you!?'' Nine - ''I know... everything about the Phradox Grox... and yet... all that knowledge... and nothing to do with it...'' Ghorie - ''Yes, there is Dronox. join us, and you can lead your kind to be more then soldiers. With you at our side, the Dronox could become so much more!'' Nine - ''Really!? That would be amazing! What do we do first!?'' Ghorie - ''Our leaders, the Alpha AI mainframe, need that knowledge. You can share it, and then you can make the Dronox so much more.'' Nine - Where is this Alpha AI Mainframe? Ghorie - ''At the core of our artificial galaxy. It should take awhile to get there, considering how protective they are of our leaders.''

Nine closed his eyes and began to speak in two languages.

Nine -'' I can see them. I can hear them. I can speak to them.'' Ghorie - ''The Leaders!? How!?

Nine opened his eyes again.

Nine - ''I could... communicate with them... They said...''
