<span style="font-weight: bold">Ten years ago</span>a ship known as the TN-10 was found derelict by a human expeditionary fleet sent to explore the known realm in which we all live in, the Milky Way Galaxy. Though what they found was that the ship itself wasn't derelict, it wasn't abandoned. Despite the heavy damage sustained by an unknown force, the ship seemed to be conducting its own repairs with non-sentient machines. The entire ship was decompressed and functioning on its own except for one life sign which seemed to be behaving erratically. There was nothing to truly explain what they had found, but the expedition had seen a lot of strange things across the universe such as rock-based life forms.<br/><br/>At fifty kilometers away, the expeditionary fleet would begin to receive warnings in a mysterious alien language. However after scanning the object from a distance away, they could tell that the weapons weren't online. Plus it wasn't very maneuverable due to the amount of damage done it its hull, so they weren't worried. At forty-five kilometers they began to receive warnings on their sensors of increasing radiation levels and these warnings would only increase as they grew closer. By the time they reached the ship the warnings ceased and the ship's engines began to finish in repairs.<br/><br/>A small crew was sent over to check out the interior of the ship, as the hangar bay was wide open, despite being practically torn apart and riddled with holes. What they discovered was heavily advanced technology and the lack of use of Protoculture which seemed almost unreal. The ship was self-sufficient and was capable of interstellar travel faster than any known human design. The energy found on board the ship was eventually verified to be zero-point energy, an infinite power source. When engineers tried to dissect the reactor however, the ship itself defended against it. Androids and machines seemed to come out of no where, using nonlethal force to subdue those on board and began to accelerate its repair processes.<br/><br/>No one died during this small skirmish, the expeditionary fleet took very little damage and everything on record was redacted. Most of the Fleet didn't know what was going on except for those on the bridge and the engineers sent over to the ship. Eventually the ship was brought into the ranks of the expeditionary fleet, given special privileges, the ship was deemed a super carrier due to the amount of fighters it could have despite its heavy armaments which allowed it to destroy other ships around its own size or larger.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;"><a class="postlink" href="https://i.ibb.co/B4Dd6w0/giphy.gif">[ img ]</a></div><br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Ten years later, present day,</span>the newly formed 17th expeditionary fleet had been sent out on a long range reconnaissance with the TN-10 as the main flagship of the fleet. While it didn't need a captain, it was granted one merely as a formality as the ship practically ran itself. Sent to the Outer arm of the Milky Way Galaxy, the expeditionary fleet is to investigate new worlds and form new alliances, but also be on the look out toward extra-galactic forces which they had been warned about ten years ago. While there was no data on these extra-galactic invaders, it was a good chance that they were going to be a threat with or without the invid hostiles.<br/><br/>Sitting in the rec hall with a guitar in her hands, a girl with dark raven colored hair and bluish-charcoal colored eyes was seated on a luxurious couch. One leg rested upon her knee, she would strum at the strings, her face remained stoic despite the fact that her eyes seemed glossy. Out of all the other pilots, she was dressed rather different. She always wore that weird white and blue bodysuit with the slim pack on the back. That and the weapon which was holstered on her lower back was also not standard grade for any of the people on board. Maybe she was treated differently? According to official records she is the adopted daughter of the ship's current captain, but other than that her background is unknown. Her origins also seemed to be redacted from her files, along with various other things which seemed to be hidden.<br/><br/>Mysterious, she would have placed the guitar down as she was done with it and stared out towards the stars as she made her way over toward the viewport windows as the rec hall doubled as a star lounge. Taking a small item off her belt, she would glance at what looked like a Personal Data Pad.<br/><br/><span style="color: #80BFFF">"Fold Vectors detected, unknown vessels entering real space."</span>A seemingly automated voice would pop up over the loud speakers throughout the ships. The ship began to slowly change direction to match the forward weapons toward the fold which was forming. The caution alarm began to sound as the ship entered its battle formations. The bridge would retract from the upper level of the hull and into the interior of the ship. All hidden modular weaponry began to come out of closed hatches, revealing heavy maser turrets and more point defense weapons.<br/><br/>Coming out of the Fold were three ships, they were however friendlies. A multitude of interstellar trading ships from another faction which were on their way home it seemed. The caution alarm turned off, there was no other call to arms for the time being as the expeditionary fleet began once more on its original heading.
