He nodded as he walked inside with her and took the pilot seat. He had been in one similar to this one before, but he was having a bit of difficulty with the language. When he finally managed to get the engine prepped, he smiled as he heard the thrusters begin to rev and growl, the ship slowly lifting from the platform and hovering as the thrusters began to fire, pushing them out into the emptiness.<br/>He was in awe of the beauty of the planet's surface as they made their descent into its blue heavens.<br/><br/><br/>"Alert master... launch from target ships docking bay..." The rylean turned to the female voice eminating from his ship's cockpit and looked out, watching as the small targeted blip made its descent.<br/>Suddenly the warning system was cut out with a grabled transmission and a deep, metallic voice croaked over his comm system.<br/>"Mortal... We are arriving to serve your master as well as our own... Query... Have you disabled their emancipation field yet?"<br/>"N...No... Who is this?"<br/>"Your question is irrelivant, our master tires of waiting... Disable the field so we may begin our attack..."<br/>"I dunno who the blood you think you are, but I was given my own orders... And I was given the choice not to kill them, so bugger off..."<br/>"Your logic is weak, and your methods innacurate and outdated. You will detonate the charge or be rended to atomic particulate..."<br/><br/>Suddenly there was an alarm as a large signal appeared next to him, as if from the very fabric of space itself. The ship that faded into existance was a large crescent shaped black ship that glowed dull green from it's internal workings, and the large gold symbols that lined along the hook shaped wings made it obvious that the ship was necronian in origin. They aimed their weapons at him, the barrels of the guns glowing with unnatural green energy.<br/><br/>"I'm no traitor..." he said as he slipped into the seat of the cockpit.<br/><br/>In the silence of space, there was suddenly the sound of a shrill, unnatural arcing crackle as the necronian ship opened fire, bursts of green lightning tearing through the void to rip the small ship asunder.<br/>Then there was silence...<br/><br/>(translated from necronian*)<br/>"Report... Scanners indicate that he has dropped out of synch..."<br/>"He is a coward unworthy of our enemies, leave him to his own affairs..."<br/>"Understood... Query... Shall we commence attack?.."<br/>"Their sensors are still down, they are blind to our prescence..."<br/>"Send a squad down to the planet, long range scan detected that their ship has launched an exploratory vessel, highly probable that our targets are within... Send a unit of five to investigate... Leave no witnesses... Retrieve the crystal..."<br/>"Understood captain, may they rest in peace..."<br/><br/>(*Necronian is a foul technological tongue spoken by very few, its utterances are calculated and exact, almost a croaking vox chatter when necronians are seen talking amongst one another.)
