Geoff Armstrong is a rugged looking 32 year old veteran of the kaaak war was six foot 1 inch tall. and medium build. he walked with a slight limp that was a result of the kaaak boarding his vessel and attacking him.
It was just an average day on the centaur Executor. captian armstrong walked into the bridge and asked if any orders had arrived. the signals officer turned around and said there was one order its was to explore a new sector. but he was told it was to dangerous to loose the Corvet so a scout was to be used. The system was near a kaaak sector and had never been explored but the argon had found traces of a powerful new power sourse and wanted to know if it was being used and if a defencive installation build there. the ship would be a heavly modified buster with a huge senser suite but not guns at all but the speed was the same as the boron Scout.
30 minute later a small fighter emerged from behind the corvert with only one crew member Geoff Armstrong. he moved 350metres from the corvet and typed in the co-ordinates into the jump drive but in his haste geoff made an error he put a co-ordinate that was off by 3 sectors he didn't notice the error he pressed the jump button and just before he jumped he finally noted the error but it was to late and he jumped out.
When the ship emerged he found himself alone next to a large planet. on the surface he saw buildings so he opened the com and didnt get a reply and on closer inspection he found the planet ruined and overgrown. he could see junk floating in space. on closer look a fleet of ships was there but mostly damged apart from one it was dagger shapped and on visual inspection it looked like a small corvet. about 100metres long and a small brigde so he asked the computer to give details of its dimemsions and layout when he got the data back his gaw dropped its computer said the ship was 21000 metres long and had nearly 300000 guns. even the entire argon fleet at full strength had less it also said that no life forms where aboard but a oxygen rich atmosphere was there so he decided to dock with it and take alook at the ships log in he asked the computer to try and dock with the ship but i said no and no registered docks found. ''Oh for god sake'' Geoff muttered then he took it of auto-pilot and flew towards it the as the ship got bigger he could see that the ship was entirely clean lined no bump or cityscape like he expected and that the guns where all over the body but were inside shutters so it remained clear of places to crash into. As he went under theship there was a clean line at first glance but as he went further down he saw a hanger, it was huge and had many entrances as he flew into it he saw hundreds of small fighters but they look wrong they all were little balls with solar panels on the side as he landed to got out. he looked around for 5minutes the hanger was full of these strange Fighters all appeared to be off and on closer inpection they had to guns of unknown form at this point a metalic vioce greeted him it was a droid... A DROID it talked to him and said that the ship he was on was called the executor two. he explain the name was because the one was a smaller cousin and had several flours in its design when he said where is number one it told him of a huge battle around a planet called Endor. this ship was created by a powerful man who was a user of a strange power he assembled the ship in 3 days but as he finished an unknown race appeared and wiped out the population of the planet and since then noone arrived since that was 350,000 years ago.
the driod gave a tour of the ship. first he went to the foundry this was where energe from a nearby star was drawn into the ship and made into fighters. second was the reactor room 1(of 300) this was the biggest of them all and powered the brigde and its defences. then on to the data bank, he stay for awhile and looked and the images in its databank. ythe first was a close match the ruins a metalic ball that was found and later destryoed by the kaaak the next image showed a ship like one currently under construction by the teladi but this looked better and more clean. then to the bridge, where the droid informed him that the master imperial made an order that the first human on board was to become captian of the ship and since he was the first that meant he was captian. he found that only one man needed to pilot it and that all the fighters he saw were drones and the ship can make them by the millions if need be.
he arrived he fired up the engines and began to moved to ship to a safe location from the planet and used a strange jump drive called a hyperdrive but it could use the co-ordinates that the jump drive used. so he entered the numbers and pressed the engage button then all the star made lines in space and the ship jumped into a tunnel like spacial pheonom then 3 minutes later, as he was in it he noted that this ''hyperdrive'' was slower than the jumpgates. it left the tunnel in the argon prime sector imediately he was hailed and ordered to drop shields he replied and told them about the ship and how he found it, at first they thought this was a joke and he was using a projector. he also told them that the ship would only respond to him from now on and that it would self desrtuct if its owner died before his time.
The argon were amazed by the sight of a 21km long ship in the argon prime sector it was photographed and was the subject to huge investigation by the other races they demanded to board it but the ships sheild refused to drop when they got near. apparently the Imperial builder made it so only humans may board it and that the shield would vapourize anynon h7uman ship that tried to board it. but he happily let them take some technical details.
soon the kaaak found the ship and soon the collective mind decided to prepare an attack but on their turns the ship was going to be drawn into a sector then destroy it...
six months after it arrival the ship had been in constant use and was still on top form the captian was told of a kaaak fleet building in a nearby sector the ship was asked to fly there and take a look and destroy it when it jumped out. the kaaak were ready and as the ship moved in they began to fire on the ship but to no affect the shields were not even on 99%. as the captian began to enter the progamming to bunch the guns into ground of 500 that ment he had 250 groups. the first group began to aim at the kaaak m0 and then it opened fire the shots went past the shields of the ship and punched huge holes accross the ship. after the salvo finished the M0 began to break up and the remains that were left were small and unless. the next flew ships suffered the same fate but suddenly a new fleet entered the system this time the match was far it was a group of smaller ships that were of teladi design. Imperators on sensers came from the ship computer. ''mark unknown'' ''threat serious'' they started to fire on the Executor and this time the shield started to drop. but the ships auto-strategy system commented ''defencive fighter launched'' from the bridge he saw a hord of fighter leave the ship and start to bombard the ship closest. he saw the ships hull breaking appart '' attack patern noted launching more fighters... targeting 7 targets... main banks firing on 8 more identified targets'' The captian was busy with the kaaak and didnt notice the teladi ships trying to steal the executor 2. but after the last kaaak ship was destroyed, he noted the threat but he saw the attack plan and muttered '' sh** this things got a better plan than me''
the last teladi ship tried to jump but its drive exploded after the interdictor field caught it and sound the large shadow of the executor 2 loomed over it. but it used multiply tractors to hual it aboard and scan it. then the computers mentioned ''mark identified teladi weaker... proceding to produce stronger copy. databank identfing Impertor Mark 2 producing''
the ship then shudered and from the bow he saw a new ship appear but is was slaved to this one and the console said ''slave ISD2 protecting system'' then he Hyperspaced back to argon prime and told them of the teladi attack and was awarded for he bravery. and was told he was now Admiral of the Idenpendent Defence force. then the com mention a new attack in the wall the ship then shot off at light speed toward the system...
ok slight improvements made chapter2 will be... oh im not telling Imperial Secrets after all i welcome all comments
