[h3]Dullahan System, 101st Exploration Patrol[/h3] Jargen rubbed his eyes in frustration. This was above and beyond his pay grade. First contact with a possible hostile species was not what he signed up for. He looked at his options. Either fire on the ships or be peaceful about it. The Admiral didn't like both. But he had to choose the second. He pointed to another comms. officer. "Send a message to High Command. Tell them of what has transpired exactly and to the letter. We need them to know about this." The man quickly set off to work while the Admiral sent a message "TF2786, you and your men go into escort formation with the unknowns that are heading towards my ship. And for the love of Fay'Ran Jik, explain your actions before formation." He heard a dozen clunkity clunks before the sound of Ti'Fin's heading off the hull. 'While I have to head down to the docking bay' he got off his command throne and stretched his legs and arms. Sitting on that for 4 straight days hurts you a bit. He stepped down and walked towards the sealing door and headed down towards the barracks/docking bay. [b]5 minutes later[/b] Jargen headed into the barracks grounds and shouted "OKAY YA LAZY CASTAWAYS!! WAKE THE HELL UP, YOU JAVE A JOB TO DO!!!" Before long, 900 Tayt Troopers appeared in full armour plus the 50 Krieg Troopers they picked up from Ly'Nus system. Jargen started walking back and forth in front of the formation. "While you lazy foot sluggers were sleeping in your beds, we navy pukes had to deal with a bloody first contact! I need Trooper Sergeant Daniela Carmine Tar'Tar's company as a bodyguard formation while the rest of you put dress gear on and show our might to these aliens!" The group broke off, Daniela and her company the only ones left. "Come with me. We are to meet the unknowns heading into the docking bay." They marched towards the docking bay and saw the contingent already making drills and marches. They walked down the isle of troopers and soldiers and stood tall as a squad of suit wearing unknowns landed in front of the 951 Democracies Soldiers.
