Ok well all I have to say at this point is, enjoy.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, except the plot.


Battle on a New Front

Prologue

Deep within her hive clusters, at the most secret part of her hidden lair... Kerrigan waited… and smiled.

Lightyears away, a single overlord, with a single drone, slipped past the final lines of defence around Earth.

As far back as Jupiter it had emerged from the hyperspace opening, hidden in the planet's shadow. From there it had moved to the highest convenient speed and drifted, silent, motionless and asleep, towards the blue gem floating in the inner system. It had as much mass as the average insignificantly sized rock and gave off as much heat too. With that in mind it passed unhindered through networks of protection, security grids and orbital defences. Finally it entered the upper atmosphere of the earth. After only a few moments a drone, encased in a special landing pod, falls free of the Overlord, sailing towards the earth's surface.

The drone pod slams into the ground with enough kinetic force to send up a small dust cloud and split the pod end to end, spilling the drone contained within onto the south-central African savannah. Immediately the injured drone burrows into the ground, controlled by Kerrigan from afar it is instructed to create a structure. A Hive, of new design, one which could remain entirely hidden underground for some time and later emerge as a fully functional Zerg structure.

Only minutes later, the overlord passes over an area of restricted airspace, a secret facility of an African government. Primitive space superiority fighters intercept it and destroy it.

The base is a secret, and so the incident is not reported.

The hive structure continues to develop, capable of providing the control lost at the overlord's death upon its completion.

And in the Koprulu sector, Kerrigan smiled… again.


Ok, so I held off on going real far with this as of yet. After all, it is just the prologue.

Please R&R. I'm not sure how long it will be until I post another chapter or if I ever will but reviews will make me think about doing it a whole lot quicker so if you like it review! I don't even care what you say.
