Collective flagship

"Praelatus Meus Non-Exogen life forms detected upon Imperial flagships, they shall likely kill the personnel on board" An officer reported, and the fleet master rose, turning and slowly leaving the bridge, ranting and apparently having temporarily broken down. A Saeva Simius, 88909, renowned for his aggression, impulsiveness and disregard for all life, took the chair as per the Fleet Masters contingency instructions
"All ships jump into system, prepare all weapons. Today they shall know fear"

The Collective ships appeared in system, two ships drifting around the perimeter of the nearest sun. They all opened fire on the Imperial ships, which two cargoships launched themselves forwards and self destructed on either side of the flagship, the dark energy expanding with the energy it consumed from the flagships shields and later the flagship its self, likely resulting in massive destruction.
This would only be compounded with all the weaponry which fired next, thousands of hardlight cannons, hundreds of energy projectors and well over a dozen dark energy casters all let loose on the Imperial flagship

"Unit 889, report activities immediately."
"Amputating Imperial Flagship"
"Allies already have that well in hand, desist and engage the other ships."

"Unacceptable, we are not on their level."
"No, you are not on their level. I am. "
"Your people are integrated fully into the Collective, they receive rights other client species do not. Do not risk that status, do not make us regret our decision to allow Saeva Simius to hold Higher Command positions, would you rather that it lie exclusively with the Triarii again?"
"If it means I am able to do this, yes."
"889, where is your commander?"
"His command has lapsed, he broke down in fear."
"Fear?"
"He has failed, the consequences for his failure will be severe"
"Place him back in command imm-"
"He will not accept command"
"Find another adequete Unit"
"I am an adequete unit"
"You are impulsive, you are not correctly built for command. Your programming dictates tha-"
