People, here I bring you a continuation of the previous chapter. This takes place on a discussion of the Quorum of the Twelve Colonies about the war with the Terrans.
I hope you enjoy.
The Quorum was a governing body where each elected representative to vote and discuss plans for the cooperative development of the Twelve Colonies. This government was created during the dawn of the Cylon War, where the Twelve Colonies were independent entities, but with the arrival of the same enemy in common, the Colonies decided to leave their differences and work together. The first Colonization Articles were also used where the new laws of the federal government of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol would be made.
But the situation that the Quorum was going through was outrageous. About a month ago, contact was made with his lost brothers; the Thirteenth Tribe, but the meeting was not at all friendly. They were made to join their other brothers, but they reacted negatively to their proposal; that was the most rude thing they had ever seen. They were branded as traitors, people who had turned their backs on their brothers and the Lords of Kobol. They were given a second chance to join, but it was the same result; they were not going to join.
Seen as a sign of rebellion, the colonial government decided to act, since the order was given by Adar to have more voters in his candidacy. Both Adar and the Quorum thought they were going to succeed, but the result came back to them; it was the Terrans who defeated them. The war with the Terrans was different from the Cylon War that the colonies would have remembered, it was not.
Now the representatives of each planet that was gathered were discussing the problem that was causing it.
"This can not be outrageous!" The representative of Tauron answered in a frustrated voice. "It is the first time that all of us were defeated by our brothers of the Thirteenth Tribe!"
"You think you thought!" The representative of Libran told him. "The Cylon War is nothing known about what we are talking about!"
"In the past we were strong enough when we were battling the Cylons!" The representative of Scoprion spoke.
"But the battle against the Thirteenth Tribe was completely different from the Cylon War that the representative of Libran said!" The representative of Leonis told the representative of Scorpion! "
"Of course yes!" Responded Libran's representative.
"But we can not compare the ceasefire when the Armistice was formed with the Cylons" suggested the Aquarion representative.
"So much isolation made them lose in the light of the Lords of Kobol, making their development strong before the Exodus of Kobol." The representative of Gemenom spoke.
"Maybe that's it!" The representative of Sagittar told him.
"I think it's not the time to talk about religion about this matter!" The representative of Virgon and representative of the royal family pointed out.
"He has all the reason!". Reasoned the representative of Picon. "We have to worry in case there is another attack"
"What about the Cylons !?" The representative of Canceron inquired.
"We have not had any sign of the Cylons around several years ago when the Armistice was created!" The representative of Tauron replied.
"What if they attack us unawares !?" Suggested the representative of Aerilon.
"Please, gentlemen, we can stop arguing!" Adar interposed to the representatives of each Colony of the discussion. Seeing all the representatives silent, he decided to speak. "I know we have gone through a shocking moment in our lives, but we can not give ourselves to discuss among ourselves, we need to reach an orderly conclusion"
All representatives agreed and agreed.
Adar continued.
"Gentlemen, representatives of the Twelve Colonies. We know exactly that the Thirteenth Tribe was nothing more than a simple ancient legend, but we discovered that it was not true, they are real, and at the same time, powerful in terms of technology, while we have not advanced The energy shields and laser weapons are the product of that ingenuity, something taken from a fiction movie, but they are real to our eyes "
"Without forgetting that they are strong in the battle for land." Replied the representative of Tauron.
"Including that there are young people in your military corps." The representative of Gemenom concluded.
"Yes, we have all witnessed the reports of the soldiers on the battlefield, we do not know if they are true, but they have sent images of what was described in the reports, and believe me, I thought it was nothing more than a simple error , but it turned out to be the opposite. " Adar assured the members of the Quorum.
The representatives of the Quorum exchanged words with each other; they had witnessed how the Terrans were able to defeat the colonial soldiers in ground battle. They even watched the Terrans call up energy beams and some other skills seen by the record during the war with their lost brothers. It seemed that the people of the Thirteenth Tribe had gained supernatural abilities during their isolation from the rest of their other sister colonies. Those images were the object of study, until it was concluded among the religious, that the Terrans had obtained those abilities by the Kobol Lords themselves before the Exodus.
"We know that the Terrans are extremely strong, that is why all of us together must devise a plan so that, in case of a supposed confrontation or rematch, we are prepared to recover our honor"
There were several assent and murmurs among the representatives.
Adar knew immediately that the members of the Quorum agreed with his ideas. He began to explain.
"We need to raise our status to reach the Thirteenth Tribe"
"So, on what proposition are you thinking, Mr. President?" The representative of Libran said.
"I propose that we use the Colonization Articles against the Thirteenth Tribe"
"Use the Colonization Articles?" Repeated Libran's representative in a bewildered tone. "But, Mr. President, the Thirteenth Tribe is renegade, it is not possible that they can fit in the Colonization Articles"
"I know that". Adar explained. "But in the paragraphs of the Colonization Articles he explains in detail that all the Colonies that are renegade against the united colonial government will be put under threat and will have to submit to the colonial law, being of us twelve worlds that we conform in the Cyrannus System, but the Colonization Articles cover all the Colonies, including the Thirteenth Tribe "
"But is it possible that the law of Colonization Articles can influence the Thirteenth Tribe?" The representative of Tauron inquired about the idea that Adar devised.
"Of course, we, gentlemen, have been in the past years in internal and external conflicts between ourselves, with the arrival of the threat of the Cylons made us unite as brothers and we work together to defeat them. The Thirteenth Tribe marked a strong point in our history, it was the first time we saw our brothers for two thousand years in the past, but their isolation from the rest of us made them arrogant of their own ego, forgetting teaching and light of the Lords of Kobol, it is even possible that they were influenced by monotheism For the first time, we were defeated by our lost relatives, now they think they are the best in the Galaxy, but they are wrong. own defeat, we must rise up and become strong, and recover our old pride! That's why I ask all of you, members of the Kobol Colonies, not to leave us We take away our anguish, I ask that we all recover our lost glory "
All representatives agreed, including the representative of Gemenom and Sagittaron; since both colonies are very religious and devotees of the Sacred Rolls and of the word of the Lords of Kobol. All the Colonies were instructed in the education of the Sacred Scrolls; They knew perfectly well that the Lords of Kobol created the Galaxy and humanity was created in Kobol. The Exodus of Kobol was real, and that the Thirteenth Tribe exists.
"The election to use the Colonization Articles in the Thirteenth Tribe is allowed, has the permission of the representatives to execute it, Mr. President". The representative of Virgon announced, while the other representatives were applauding before the action executed by Adar.
"Thank you very much, representatives!" Adar was happy to be able to do it.
Greetings to all, do not forget to comment.
