chapter 4 The first machines

It was midday before Ridick finally went to the grass-lands again. He was still mad at his sister and how she got breakfast first. So me decided to go for a walk. when he never saw the fog from earlier he just brushed off the experience of the fog and the power he felt as a dream.

After about six minutes of walking he heard a slight buzzing in the air. the strange part was he felt like he had heard that sound before but he was sure that it was not the case.

By the time he got to the grass lands was a gleaming blue and white building standing about 24 meters tall. "what in the name of hell" was all Ridick got to say before what looked like 18 metal men with 6 things floating above them turned to him. There where 15 white metal men with 2 black and 1 gold one.

The gold one had what looked like glowing arms and glowing blue eyes.

While the 2 black ones looked a bit more menacing at a hight of 3 meters tall with blades on their hands and more heavy armour. There heads had a no eyes gust a blank mask with no eyes. As the rest of the metal men including the gold one look about 2.3 meters tall.

The white ones did have strange gauntlets with bits of metal and what looked like gems stuck in them. These things where thin very fin that it looked like they had not eaten in a few months.

The blue eyes just staring at me.

The floating things where small about 0.8 meters tall and about 1.4 meters long. their single eye looked at me. one of them floated towards me and stopped not far from me as its single blue glowing eye turned green then back to normal.

The metal man that was gold step forward and greeted me. "hallo creator". At its voice i cringed slightly it did not sound like any voice i have ever haired before but the language was definitely Alterain. I was curious it called me creator. It said these words like I was its leader. so I spoke."what do you mean 'creator' and what are you and what is that building". In Alterain of course.

it stopped for a moment about 5 or 6 meters from me. Then it spoke again in its cold and heart-less voice. "I am a builder, while the 2 big one behind me are both blade/miner bots. the 15 white ones are omni-bots and the 6 floating ones are resource gatherers and artillery bots called sentinels. you are the creator of the factory that made us. and the building behind me is the factory. It is where we are made and programmed".

I was taken back sure I was smart for the average present on my planet but those words. I know them somehow. it was strange the second that it said those words a huge amount of knowledge hit me. As my vision slowly goes black I feel cold metal hands catch me as i fall to the ground then nothing but flashes of light that is incomprehensible flashed before forming words and moving pictures started to play on the wall. soon I understood it all I don't know how I just do. It was like I've had that knowledge all me life.

now I know maths, the Alterin written language, science and more importantly what I was and what the machines I saw earlier are.

slowly the light dim's to the point where it just faded out of existence. Then I felt the cold hands holding me and the biggest headache in the history of headaches. I moaned because of the headache. Then a small object made its way into my neck then slowly the pain goes away.

I slowly open my eyes and i only see the cold white and blue walls. I was laid on the softest mattress i have ever known. 'way better the furs' I think to myself.

"Now lets begin".


Didacts infantry units

the first is the builders. builder are not built for war but for construction of the buildings and the hulls of star ships with the use of nano-tech

The second is the tech units. also known as Huragok. Huragok's in the altrein language means artificial genius. some people call them Engineers. regardless of what most people think about these organic creatures they tend to be the ones who maintain and build most of the Didacts technology. these creatures tend to float about and chirp while working the reason's for this is known to very few. they also serve as hackers when needed as there appendages can manipulate technology thanks to the nano technology they are fused with. classed as Tear 3 unit. this means that certain requirements need to be meet before they can be produced. such as a tech-lab and bio tech lab. (note they are the only none combatant Race beside the nox. the tend to get upset if Alterin technology is damaged. If shot at in a fire fight, Huragok make no attempt to defend themselves, but rather curl up in fright and float to a safe distance. they tend to be grown in pods but can reproduce normally.)

blade-bots are both melee combative and mining bots using the pickaxe like limbs to brake and slash rock, and limbs apart. they have heavy many survive if these bots get to close. made of titanium carbon alloy.

sentinels- are one of the most common types of machines in the didacts army. though not dedicated fighters like the blade bots or the mech-bots they can be seen on the battle field acting as scouts and artillery units. Armed with a single mining laser that can cut though most metals in a small time. they have a personal shields, clocking device and a bio scanner used to identify any dangerous life forms on ships and in mine shafts.

omni-bots- are the most common type of machines in the didacts army. dedicated to do many jobs and very cheap to make the omni-bots tend to use numbers to there advantage. omni-bots have a strength that can crush a man's skull and are armed with a wrist plasma repeater that is just as powerful as the kull warriors version. lightly armoured. consecrated fire will be able to destroy them with ease. tend to be made of iron carbon alloy.


i know that the sentinels and the huragoks are from halo but I need to think of the didacts infantry and engineers for his army.

we are going to go into a beginning of a building up stage with the Didact base. may have a small battle with some raider warlords and slavers in the next 3-4 chapters.

sg1 may be in this fan-fic but they will not be the ones making first contact around season 6 of Stargate sg1. this may be 10 to 14 chapters away

thanks for reading.
