Patrol group eight handed off the wreckage to recovery group two, and preceeded on it's patrol alone... When it picked up an odd signal.
"Hoc autem centurio, Fairlan Miklan Lakfakalle Cooperantem Interstellar vas Starfire, ut a piece of an deserta vas incurrat in tradendo ordinata! Nobis opus est auxilio immediate, navigio est graviter laedantur et vestimentum radialis est suspectus futurus; Si quis potest aliqua intelligere auditis adesto nobis!"
There was a strange looking blue being on the screen, and the Overseer frowned, tapping a few command buttons and an estimated 3d image of the being formed on the holopedestal. The Overseer tapped a few commands and then his head lit up orange as he transmitted a few commands to the communications officer, who in turn tapped several commands and nodded to him as if confirming something. The Overseer pressed one of the holographic buttons on the terminal in front of him before speaking to High Command
"Patrol group eight to Command. We have picked up a signal transmitted in Triarian Standard by an unknown exogen species. Any overriding order?"
"Negative, your course of action is discretionary." Command quickly cut the signal so he could return to directing other ships, and the Overseer transmitted back location, a course plan and that his group was breaking the patrol pattern. The four vessels, two Velites, a Venator and a Hastati, turned and transmitted a message back towards the Point of origin of the strange communication
"Hoc est Præfectus Licinius de circumitarum coetus octo de Collectivum. Vestra angustia sumus respondens ad signum. Tene." The ships then jumped into the secondary universe for FTL

They arrived near the unknown vessel a few moments later. They seemed to examine the scene and glided closer to the alien ship before an orange ray seemed to shoot out and swept through the human ship... a scanning beam of sorts, before the same beam swept through the other ancient vessel. The next act was a hailing message, an attempt to open a video feed. As that happened a sort of gravitational beam formed from the largest ship, the Cruiser, pulling the human ship away from the wreckage and separating the two. The ships were all unmarked save for the symbol of the Collective engraved on the side, small to the point one might not even see it at first glance or assume it to be minor damage. Nothing else appeared, no identifying name or numbers... all that was done through HUD's and ship commands now.
"Hoc est Præfectus Licinius de [i]Umbra intentus[/i], praetoria nave de circumitarum coetus octo. Ingrediatur et fama condicionem?"
