Episode 4: The First Mission
[Episode begins with Robotech3:Dark Odyssey Theme and scenes
from the previous episode.]
Narrator[VO]: In the last episode of Robotech3: Dark Odyssey, Admiral Rick
Hunter begins an inspection of the new REF crew and sees a
familiar face and oversees Commander Britai's Zentraedi in a
Hologram simulator battle against a Crongus scouting party and is
told to warp to Earth space for a christening ceremony. Meanwhile
The Crongus Warlords discuss the reports of the campaign and also
received a mandate from their Emperor that the Alliance between
Crongus and the Zandrini, Tories, Quasar Raiders and
Sibblinghood of Set void.
[Ext. shot of the REF fleet in orbit around terraformed Mars and
shuttles travailing from one starship to another.]
Rick Hunter[VO]: General's log, Current Robotech Date November 7, 2040 A.D.
Parallel Date April 15, 2384 A.D. The New REF fleet is finally
finished faster than any shipyard I knew about. The REF High
Command has inspected the new REF fleet personnel and in this
parallel universe, Bretai was alive and unfortunately so is Khyron.
His dimensional twin that the RDF once knew was very destructive
and would sacrifice his own Zentraedi brethren for glory but this
one was quite different, almost likable. Plus his name is totally
different, Kamujin, which sort of sound's weird even for a
Zentraedi and the Dimensional Twin of Azona, Lapramiz Laplamiz,
is almost our old Khyron and she have to be watched over from
time to time to see if she doesn't make any trouble.
Anyway, Dr. Lang and Cabell have finally discovered the real
names of the Alpha and Beta Veritechs. The Squadron Leader Alpha that I
have seen earlier during the Turbo Thrust tests aboard the Angle
fire was actually known as the VAF-9 Heavy Assault Alpha Fighter.
They also discovered that the Heavy Assault Alpha Fighter has
three distanced colors and head styles; the VAF-9s are green, the
VAF-9j are red and the VAF-9a was blue. The Squadron Leader
Beta was a heavy assault VBF-3 Beta Fighter. The Wingman Alpha
is known as the VAF-8 Alpha Fighter which was a Standard Stealth
Interceptor Veritech and there were basically two main models; the
fighter model and a Reconnaissance model and the Reconnaissance
model has a lengthen cockpit and sensors which is actually a
floating Stealth Recon Pod. The four VAF-8 models are named;
VAF-8a, VAF-8j, VAF-8s, and the Reconnaissance model was
named VAF-8r and they are originally issued by rank because of for
instance a regular pilot would be issued the VAF-8a, an officer pilot
will have either the VAF-8j or VAF-8r and a squadron leader would
pilot a VAF-8s. The Wingman and Transport Beta Fighter is called the
VBF-2 Beta fighter Transatmosphearic Support Veritech and it has
two distanced models; the VBF-2a which is a standard beta fighter
and the VBF-2t which transport soldiers but then it can only
transform in Jet and Guardian modes. And there is also a VBF-3 Heavy Assault Beta Fighter which is what many rookie pilots would call a "Souped Up Beta" or something like that. It is the only Beta I know of that can hold a Gunpod and this gunpod is so massive that it can only be carried by the VBF-3. Max actually liked the new fighters and he has changed the normal veritechs of Skull squadron with these new veritechs and I wouldn't mind having these veritechs as the main fighter of the new REF and the UCE has invented a veritech fighter in which it's Guardian mode looks like the MAC-2. Interesting at how the UCE can invent so destructive and interesting mecha just by looking at blueprints and altering it slightly in there opinion. Anyway we were ordered to report to Earth space for a christenings ceremony for good fortune and moral. From what I heard about the Crongus, we would need all of the good luck we can get.
[Int. shot of the SDF-3A bridge with Rick Hunter, Lisa "Hayes"
Hunter and Commander Harrisburg]
Rick Hunter: Is our path cleared for Impulse Drive to Earth?
Diagnostics Officer: Due to heavy traffic we can't use the Impulse Drive Engines so
situation calls for Hyperspace Warp to Earth.
Rick Hunter: So when can we warp to Earth?
Diagnostics Officer: We'll begin Hyperspace Warp sequence in on your mark General.
Rick Hunter: Then begin Hyperspace Warp sequence.
Diagnostics Officer: All stations, prepare for Hyperspace Warp. Repeat, All stations
prepare for Hyperspace Warp.
Navigation Officer: Setting course for Earth 001. Hyperspace generator at Warp 1.
[Int. shot of a room filled with special technicians looking at
diagnostics screens to be sure that the Hyperwarp Generator is
working perfectly. In the middle of the room was a huge retro-laser
cannon-from-fifties-serials-like generator that was in the center of a
gyro device and then a huge holo screen suddenly encircled the
generator and it showed Terraformed Mars on one side and Earth
on the other.]
1st Special Technician: Power level is up to 67% and climbing.
2nd Special Technician: Hyperwarp generator is targeting course 001 and particle
execrator is scanning particle composition of ship. 15 seconds till
Hyperspace Warp readiness.
3rd Special Technician: Hyperwarp shield bubble at maximum voltage.
4th Special Technician: Hyperspace Generator and Particle Accelerator Energy Collector
Cells at maximum and Direct Energy Cells powering to 78%.
[Int. shot of STF-3A's bridge.]
1st Special Technician[VO]: Hyperspace Warp Generator is ready to go.
1st Starship Pilot: Preparing to open Hyperspace in 5, 4...
2nd Starship Pilot: Ready, steady...
Rick Hunter: Um, Lisa?
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Yes Rick.
Rick Hunter: What dose Hyperspace Warp feel like in the first place anyway?
1st Starship Pilot: 3, 2...
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Didn't you read the document on Hyperspace Warp travel?
Rick Hunter: Huh? There was a document on Hyperspace Warp in my office?
1st and 2nd Starship pilot: Go
[1st Starship Pilot pulls back a throttle-like device that has words
on it that say "Hyperspace Warp" about a quarter of the way and
there was a slight rumble on the bridge.]
[Ext. shot of STF-3A. A blue ring opens up and in the event
horizon is a tunnel with red streaks and blue background.]
1st Starship Pilot: Initiating Particle execration and Hyperspace Warp.
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: It was introduced to you back when the Fleet was being built.
[1st Starship Pilot pulls back Hyperspace throttle and entire ship
begins to devolve from the forward cannons and then to the aft
engines in a blaze of light and everything stretches toward the
Hyperspace Conduit.]
Rick Hunter: I don't think that this is AAAAA-
[Camera shows Rick's face molecules being stretched toward the
Hyperspace Conduit and shows the tunnel twisting and turning
until finally it stops at the end of Hyperspace Conduit and
everything un-stretches. Rick's face looks ghastly pale with sweat
running from his face and his body started to twitched in sudden
fear.]
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: I guess you didn't read it.
[Lisa sighs as she looks at Rick's pale face but then something on
the main screen caught her eye. She rose up and looked at the
screen with awe and envy with a slight twinkle in her eye.]
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Rick, look at the screen. It's beautiful.
[Rick's pale face returned to it's natural color as he also rose and
looked at the screen.]
[Ext. shot of the SDF-3A facing Earth with a bluish/white ring and
on the daylight side of the planet, its rings have rainbow glows
coming from it like a prism held to the light and around the blue
ring was a white, metallic ring with moving ships and small metallic
reflections of Tether Elevators coming to and from the ring,
space stations, and early Space Colonies and there were Lagrange Orbital Colonies around the Earth in the Lagrange gravitational canceller points. In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean was a small landmass that was strangely glowing blue and the horizon of Earth glowed blue as well.]
Commander Harrisburg: I guess you two haven't seen videos of our Earth yet. It's better
if you see it with your own eyes.
[Commander Harrisburg turned his head toward the screen.]
Commander Harrisburg: Beautiful view, isn't it?
Rich Hunter: Huh, oh yes a great view but how did Earth get a ring in the first
place?
Commander Harrisburg: Well it was back in the 21st century when two Ice planets came
dangerously close to the Earth. We fired a nuclear missile toward
the largest ice planet and somehow, the missile found itself inside
the core and exploded and shattered the largest ice planet and the
shock wave flung the smaller one toward Venus and the impact
eliminated the poisonous atmosphere and created oceans upon the
planet. Soon we began construction of a defense ring and by then
the debris of the former ice planet formed into a ring and soon we
created a gravity device that keeps the ice ring from falling toward
earth or make a new moon.
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Amazing.
Commander Harrisburg: Yes we do have an interesting history. You did review the
history program did you?
[Commander Harrisburg then noticed that they are still intrigued and in awe of the UCE's planet Earth.]
Commander Harrisburg: Perhaps later when you both have a chance.
[Ext. shot of a huge space station with the SDF-3A next to it and
the spectators inside of it cheered as the President of the UCE
begins her christening speech.]
President: Today, we gather on this space station to celebrate the christening of
our new Dimensional Expeditionary Force as they begin their duty
to defend extra-dimensional worlds from Crongus subjection. As
president, I would wish this new addition to our military force with
the christening of the new REF Dimensional Expeditionary Force
with the christening of their flagship.
[The President walks up toward the window and held her hand
over a red button.]
President: On this day, April 15 2384, I crisen the Super Dimensional Fortress
3A "Defender".
[She pressed a button and a bottle of Champaign tied to a ribbon
shot out of a tube and crashed onto the hull of the SDF-3A.]
[Everyone cheered as the commanding staff of the REF leaves the
room and into the shuttle bay. A few moments later the military
shuttle left the space station and headed toward the main hangar
bay of the SDF-3A.]
[Int. shot of the bridge.]
Rick Hunter: Begin Dimensional Generator Sequence.
Bridge Crew: Affirmative.
[A Huge Dimensional Rift opened that looks like a sphere with
spiraling arms of warped space. The SDF-3A and the rest of the
REF fleet heads toward the rift in full thrust and as they reach the
event horizon of the rift, they suddenly wrinkled out of existence
and the rift closes.]
[Int. shot of the SDF-3A bridge with the Dimensional Conduit on
the main screen which looks like the same conduit that brought
them into the UCE universe. After the jump, they end up in the
middle of three fleets orbiting a red planet. One of the fleets looks
like ships of spiny shadows, another looked like dull green ships
with moving spots and curved horns in the front of it, and the third
was a grouping of various ships. One ship type looked like saucers, another blue angle fishes, some that looked like squared
cylinders with a rotating rectangle in the center of it and a
triangular head with antennas poking out of it. Two of the three
fleets have dark clouds that was thundering like thunder
clouds.]
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: I don't think that this is the right moment to enter their universe.
Communications Officer: Admiral "Hayes" Hunter, were being haled by one of the ships in
the mixed fleet.
Lisa "Hays" Hunter: On screen.
[On the main screen was the bridge of an alien vessel that had two
piloting pods near the front of the bridge with humanoid creatures
wearing robes and had bone crests on the back of their heads and
no eyebrows. On the command chair was a Caucasian human with
light brown hair in a jumpsuit uniform. Next to him was another
bone crested humanoid but this one had long black hair and a
smaller bone crest and another alien humanoid that has a huge
forehead with a crown that had a red jewel in the center of it and
had a gray beard.]
Man: This is John Sheridan of the White star to unidentified fleet, you
are in the middle of our fleets and we would want to know what
your intentions are?
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: We assure you that our intentions are not against you and that we
are here to-
Scanner Grid Ensign: Admiral "Hayes" Hunter, we have unidentified blips several
Astronomical Units away closing in on our position very fast.
Rick Hunter: Who are they?
Scanner Grid Ensign: I don't know but they are entering the identification zone.
Rick Hunter: Computer, what is the identification of the ships.
Computer[VO]: Scanning. Ships. Are. Crongus. Warships. Estimated . Number.
Seventy-five Trillion.
Lisa "Hayes" Hunter: Shields up to maximum power now.
[Ext. shot of the SDF-3A with a gritted sphere encircling the
ship.]
[Int. shot of the SDF-3A bridge. On the main screen, a huge cloud
of green/yellow bioships raced into view and then yellowish/green
plasm energy beams and energy balls fired at them. Most of the
bridge crew were flung from their stations from the impact on their
shields.]
John Sheridan: Who are they?
Rick Hunter: Their the Crongus, a ruthless warrior race that is obsessed with
dominating all life forms. They are relentless and will kill anything
that will oppose their domination and enjoys the suffering of other
species. You must escape now while you still have a chance.
Scanner Grid Ensign: General Hunter, Crongus attack fleet is turning for a second
assault.
Rick Hunter: Huh?
[The Crongus fleet separated and made a sharp loop turn and just
barely touching the planet's atmosphere. They charged there
weapons as soon as they were within view of the REF fleet and
some of them started firing upon the other fleets.]
Rick Hunter: Fire the hologram missiles.
Weapons Control Officer: Firing.
[The SDF-3A fired ten missiles several yards from the Crongus
fleet. The Warheads opened up and then a hologram image of
Lynn Minmei appeared.]
John Sheridan: What are you doing General?
Rick Hunter: The Crongus hate music. It makes their ears bleed and go mad and
so they must destroy the source of the music immediately.
[Int. shot of a studio with Lynn Minmei and her band inside. A
hologram camera scans her body and then she started to sing her
song "We Will Win".]
[Ext. shot of the Crongus fleet suddenly stopping and changed
direction toward the missiles.]
Rick Hunter: Launch more Hologram missiles. All fleet commanders, do not fire
until they are within firing range from the missiles.
Scanner Grid Ensign: The Crongus are within their firing range of the missiles
Admiral.
Rick Hunter: All ships fire at will.
[The REF fleet began firing their weapons at the Crongus fleet and
from the immediate open fire came green/yellow fireballs and the
SDF-3A continued to launch hologram missile and Lynn-Minmei
continued to sing "We Will Win" and Crongus warships and
Titans began chancing their singing targets. When the battle was
just beginning to end, a stray hologram missile was hit by a
blast wave and was sent flying away from the Crongus fleet, flew
passed the REF fleet and right in the middle of the shadow fleet
and the dull yellow fleet.]
Rick Hunter: Are all of the Crongus warships destroyed yet?
Scanner Grid Ensign: There are only a few hundred left sir.
[On the weapons control council, a malfunction warning was
bleeping, showing a hologram missile warhead between the
two other fleets.]
Weapons Officer: Admiral, one of our warheads have been knocked off course and
has been activated between two of the three alien fleets and is
beginning to activate itself.
Scanner Grid Ensign: Admiral, the Crongus have destroyed all of our launched
hologram missiles and has begun to regroup.
Rick Hunter: All ships prepare for a frontal attack run. Mr. Horreth, get that
warhead deactivated now.
[The warhead activated and soon the remaining Crongus fleet
began a full charge at the warhead and ignoring the REF fleet
entirely. The Crongus attack fleet began firing at all of the other
fleets and many of the ships exploded in a great fireball or ripped
apart.]
[Ext. shot of the REF fleet and the mixed fleet orbiting around a
dead world with a fife mile long space station using rotating axis
gravity.]
[Int. shot of the space station that looks like an enclosed street of
a city.]
John Sheridan: The Crongus have destroyed all of the Vorlon, Shadow, and First
Ones ships. Beside that one of your hologram missiles went off
course and suddenly activated, why did the Crongus destroy them
all in the first place?
Exadore: According to the recent observations of the UCE-
John Sheridan: You mean the Earth government that you guys joined with, the
United Colonies of Earth?
Exadore: Yes, as I was saying, the Crongus believed that they were the only
worthy superior race to have biotech ships and so they destroy any
evidence of biotechnology that could be used against them by an
inferior race.
John Sheridan: So all the Crongus do is destroy and conquer, right?
Exadore: That is correct, they believe that it's their destiny to rule the
universe and currently, all of the dimensions that they have
invaded.
Delen: The Crongus are a dark and evil race, even more so than the
Shadows.
Exadore: And speaking of the Shadows, the UCE have recently made some
research on the shadows in another "Babylon" universe and they
also discovered what their names were.
John Sheridan: I hear that their true names are a thousand letters long Exadore?
Exadore: Yes it is but pronouncing it isn't as hard as it seemed. The are
called the Darkenvolnovatola'Questovanatellino Kamataioian.
John Sheridan: What!?
Rick Hunter: Huh?!
Exadore: We call them Darkens for short. But then it was in a different
dimension.
John Sheridan: Oh, and the technology of both of your dimensions are impressive,
even more advance that most of the aliens in this galaxy. Were
they all from the wars you have fought?
Rick Hunter: Well most of it. The SDF-1 fell onto our Earth during the Global
Civil War and our transformation technology was from that ship,
we also discovered energy shields to protect our ships and then
there were the fold generators and our power source known as
Protoculture. The UCE universe, however, created their
transformable technology by themselves and they called it
Verimorphtech. About most of their weapons came from either
wars or cold wars and the other half was discovered in peace time,
other aliens, and accidental discoveries.
John Sheridan: And speaking of wars, what were your first alien wars anyway?
Exadore: Our first conflict was in our year of 2009 when my race, the
Zentraedi, attacked the Earth and at the end of the First Robotech
War millions of human lives were killed and then there was the
Sentinels war which introduced us to the Invid on the far side of
the galaxy to negotiate a truce between Earth and the creators of
the Zentraedi known as the Robotech Masters and while the
Sentinels war raged, Earth was being invaded by the Robotech
Masters themselves, starting the Second Robotech War. And after
that the Invid queen Regis invaded the Earth again and we were
about to liberate Earth from her rule when we ended up in this
mess in which we call the Crongus Wars.
Delen: And the UCE?
Exadore: Well, from my research on the UCE's history, the Crongus Wars
were the first conflict with an extraterrestrial. Most of the UCE's
wars involved with their own kind, the UCE's allies did aid in the
wars but that was it, only the Slavis and The Exons were truly in
the wars.
John Sheridan: There must be a lot of civil wars back before the Crongus Wars.
Exadore: What? Oh no, there was no civil wars but were involved with
either an independent human government or terrorists.
Delen: It must have been horrible wars, but why didn't the other alien
governments offered to help fight in the Earth's Wars?
Exadore: Well their wars weren't as savage, horrific, and hateful as what they
called "Human Wars" were and believed that if they fought in a
Human War, their society would collapse, until the Crongus Wars
began.
John Sheridan: And the Human race survived till what century?
Exadore: The 24th century.
John Sheridan: I would hate to see what these wars looked like in the UCE's
universe. So how did the Crongus Wars started anyway?
Exadore: I've noticed that you've been asking a lot of questions now, John
Sheridan?
John Sheridan: I like to know my friends a little better.
Exadore: Yes, well the Crongus Wars began on a highly populated galactic
colony in the Magellan clouds on December 24, 2352 just a few
nanoseconds before it was midnight Earth standard time. About
99.9% of the entire population were slaughtered.
John Sheridan: The Crongus attacked on Christmas?
Rick Hunter: That was the popular belief.
[John Sheraton's hand began to beep. He raised his hand and on
the back of his hand was a small communicator.]
John Sheridan: What is it?
Women[VO]: Caption Sheridan, we just discovered that a large, ten mile object
had just appeared out of nowhere and is requesting permission to
stop at the station.
John Sheridan: Did they say who they are?
[VO]: They said that their ship's name was "Angle Fire".
Rick Hunter: That's a UCE Galaxy Destroyer.
John Sheridan: You know the ship?
Rick Hunter: We have some friends on that ship.
[Int. shot of Babylon 5's hangar and a UCE military shuttle was
being brought by a landing elevator. Rick Hunter, Exadore, John
Sheridan, Delen and a crowd of incoming passengers were
watching and waiting for whatever to come out of it and two
humanoid aliens in expensive clothing and have peacock haircuts
walked toward John Sheridan.]
1st Alien: What's all the commotion about Sheridan?
John Sheridan: Londo, Vir, your back early.
Vir: We just heard the news of two unknown alien fleet with
tremendous firepower was found near where the Shadows and
Vorlons were about to attack each other and we wanted to see who
it was and, who are the two guys in....spandex you call them?
John Sheridan: This is General Rick Hunter and Exadore of one of the alien fleets.
Londo: So how dose it feel to actually destroy the shadow armada hu?
Rick Hunter: Actually, that glory goes to the other fleet, the Crongus.
Londo: And who are the Crongus hu?
Rick Hunter[whispers to himself]: I wonder why he always says hu after every question?
Exadore: A species that you do not want to fight with.
Londo: Good advice and what is that yellow thing next to your leg?
[Next to Rick Hunter's leg was a small yellow mouse creature
with red cheeks, rabbit-like ears and a tail in shape of a thunder
bolt.]
John Sheridan: What in the world is that?
Rick Hunter: I have no idea?
Exadore: It's a Picacheu.
Both Rick Hunter and John Sheridan: What?
Exadore: A Picacheu. An Electric type Poke'mon from another parallel
universe.
Rick Hunter: Poke what?!
Picacheu: Picacheu.
Delen: It can talk?!
Picacheu: Pica!
Exadore: Actually that's how it talks.
Pikacheu: Cheu?
[VO]: Riiiiick.
Rick Hunter: huh?
[The Pikacheu suddenly scampered toward the voice and jumped
into the arms of the person calling him.]
Rick Hunter: Commander!
Londo: Who?
Rick Hunter: That's Commander Minmei Lynn, a friend of ours....sort of.
Delen: She looks a lot different than her hologram?
Vir: What Hologram?
Rick Hunter: That's Lynn-Minmei from our universe, this ones from the UCE's
universe.
Londo: Would someone please tell me what is going on here!?!
Commander Minmei: Who's screamer here Rick?
Delen: She sounds different too?
John Sheridan: Scre- I mean this is Londo Mollari, his assistant here is Vir Cotto,
I'm John Sheridan and this is Delen.
Rick Hunter: So why is this poke- I mean puke- I mean Pika- what's its called
again Exadore?
Commander Minmei: It reminded me of someone I used to know along time ago.
[Commander Minmei sighed and had a look of dispair on her
face.]
Londo: Well, since were still trying to know one another, I suggest that we
talk about what's has happened over lunch shall we hu?
Karl Riber: I'm up for it! And why do you do that hu thing?
Londo: Hu?
Karl Riber: See, yah did it again!
Rick Hunter: Riber, how's it going?
Karl Riber: Oh, just fine and dandy.
John Sheridan: Exadore, you said that the Pika...whachamacallit is an electric
type, what do you mean by that?
Pikacheu (Rick): Pi, ca, CHEU!!!!!
[There was a sudden flash of yellow light and then Karl suddenly
fell flat on his face and started to gibber from the electrical shock
from Pikacheu (Rick).]
Vir: What happened to Mr. Riber?!
[John Sheridan spoke onto his hand communicator]
John Sheridan: This is Sheridan to Sick Bay, someone has been shocked by pure
electricity. He needs help immediately.
[Parallel Lisa was running toward Karl.]
Parallel Lisa: What happened?
[In one of the Sick bays aboard Babylon 5, a tall African American
Man steeped out from a glass room with Karl sitting on an
examination table.]
Parallel Lisa: Dr. Franklin, is he going to be all right?
Dr. Franklin: Riber's OK for now, as long as he stays away from whatever
shocked him.
[Karl walked out of the glass room and Pikacheu (Rick)
scampered into the sick bay.]
Karl Riber: So, am I OK to go now?
[Karl accidentally steps onto Pikacheu (Rick)'s tail and then
Pikacheu (Rick) began to glow bright yellow.]
Pikacheu (Rick): PIKACHEU!!!!!!
[There was a sudden flash of yellow light and then Karl's body
started to discharge electrical flashes.]
Karl Riber: Never mind.
[Karl fell flat on his face again and Pikacheu jumped onto his
back.]
Dr. Franklin: What is that thing?
Pikacheu (Rick): Pika pi?
Parallel: He's a Pikacheu.
Dr. Franklin: A what?
Parallel Lisa: He's Commander Minmei's pet.
Dr. Franklin: Dose he bite?
[Parallel Lisa gave Dr. Franklin one of those looks that says "What do
you think?" and Dr. Franklin took another look at Pikacheu (Rick).]
Pikachew (Rick): Pikachew!
Dr. Franklin: Never mind.
[Int. shot of Sheridan's Office with Sheridan, Rick Hunter and
Commander Minmei Lynn.]
Rick Hunter: So why's the "Angel Fire" doing in this dimention anyway?
Commander Minmei: Intel has found out that the Crongus are deploying more ship into
this universe than previously calculated from the other
dimensional invasions. We suspect that there is something rather
important within this dimention and we have a few threatening
theories.
John Sheridan: And what would those be?
Commander: Just a few I know about. First is that there are more species in this
dimention than ours that could be used for electrolytes or recycled
to be used for their Bioships. Second, They want to find some
valuable relic that could have been lost to them like some kind of a
power source or weapon. Third, they are attempting to free one of
their Gods.
Rick Hunter: That's impossible, how could Gods exist?
Commander Minmei: When they have destroyed a good percent of your fleet with one
thought.
Both John and Rick: Oh, okay?!
Commander Minmei: And Fourth, they have discovered a new planet to colonized for
some kind of a huge offense that could destroy every living
organism.
Rick Hunter: So what are we waiting for, let's get our ships ready and-
Commander Minmei: Hold on there, we have no place to look for them and
this is a big galaxy?
John Sheridan: So how do we find them in the first place?
Commander Minmei: We wait for the Crongus to appear first and then-
[A women in an Earth Alliance uniform suddenly bursted into the
room.]
Earth Alliance Officer: Captain, you are needed at the main conference room.
John Sheridan: What is it?
Earth Alliance Officer: Its Londo and G'Kar, they appeared angry when they wanted a
conference about the information they have received from their
homeworlds.
[Int. shot of the main conference room with Londo and a
reptilian-humanoid named G'Kar were in the center of it with
holograms and yelled at the top of their lungs]
Londo: In the last few hours, our colonies were savagely attacked by
Crongus and from a single surviving surveillance camera
shows the same ships from when the UCE fleet had arrived from
nowhere.
[Londo's hologram shows many Mushroom shaped bioships,
tri-engine nacelle ships in a formation of an upside-down-triangle
form, and biofighters of every shape came running toward a green
planet in which the surveillance camera was orbiting and many
flashes of green/yellow light came from the bioship's cannons
before the camera was destroyed.]
G'Kar: That's nothing compared to the condition of our colonies. Each
and everyone of them were destroyed completely and left only
asteroids of the planet flying around in space.
[G'Kar's Hologram showed the tri-nacelle engine bioship firing a
constant beam of green/yellow light toward a red, ringed planet
before it began to shake constantly and began to break up with
energy waves coming from the cracks.]
Londo: What about my people and their ships hu? From surviving camera
images show the crew of the attacked ships that weren't torn apart,
were brutally and savagely murdered by the Crongus.
[The hologram showed many Centari crew members ripped apart
by the hands of the Crongus soldiers in their soldier armor and
impaled by Crongus blade weapons.]
Londo: And when the ships were recovered, the bodies of the crew were
missing, only their blood remained and the smell of death.
G'Kar: Well no one cares about your race.
Londo: I think your race could use a few extinction's yourselves.
Delen: Our ships are attacked as well from the Crongus, they have
brutally murdered each and everyone on them and took them away
from their morning families.
[A tear trickled from Delen's eyes as she watched her own
hologram showed images of Crongus bioships ripping apart angel
fish shaped ships of the Mimbari.]
Londo: And all of you remember the extinction of the entire Vorlon and
Shadow race from the dark-hearted Crongus, I vote that we strike
now-
Commander Minmei: And then what? You have no idea how dangerous your idea is
Londo. You have no idea of what your species could suffer if you
go to war with the Crongus.
[Commander Minmei comes out with Pikachew(Rick) on her
shoulders and followed by John Sheridan, Rick Hunter and
Exadore.]
G'Kar: Your species have done well during your war with the Cron-
[Commander Minmei looked at G'Kar with angry eyes and G'Kar
shuddered in fear as he stopped his sentence.]
Londo: So what do your government intend to do about the Crongus hu?!
[Commander Minmei looked at Londo with angry eyes and he too
shuddered in fear. No one noticed that a reporter with a camera
probe was viewing them with the initials on the side that read
"ISN".]
Commander Minmei: Listen, all of you, this is a fight that you must not intervene in. You
do not how they fight, what devices you need to defeat them, or
how to even defend your own ships or your own homeworlds if the
Crongus ever attacked. In the early years of our war with the
Crongus, our ships cannot fight the Crongus and so each and
everyone of them were destroyed and brutally murdered. We did
not know how to fight them either but then we accidentally found
out how which cost lives beyond measure. We have survived and
learned how to fight them and the most important lesson that we
have learned that they cannot easily conquer a entire galaxy that
were joined together in an alliance with a common goals and ideas
even before their arrival. Our species may not be united but the rest
of our galaxy is, with our combined strength we have fought the
Crongus from conquering our worlds.
[Commander Minmei Lynn then looked back at Londo and G'Kar
and then back to the other aliens.]
Commander Minmei: But your races cannot defend yourselves because you are still
fighting with each other, your species hated one another and the
Crongus can take advantage of that. You cannot fight the Crongus
because you do not fight as one force but separate, unjouned forces
that cannot survive by themselves without allies and your constant
bickering will be the end of all of you. Not because you do not
know how to fight them, but because you do not know how to fight
together against the common enemy and keep that alliance together
because you know that deep inside they you know you can't,
because the seed of hatred was buried deep inside of you from
generations of war, hatred and distrust to even join forces because
you can't, your races can never have even the heart of joining
together into an alliance to combat the Crongus and service
because you can't. You can never survive if you cannot join
together into one combined force and win. So just stay out of our
war and worry about yourselves because that is the only thing you
care about is yourselves and that is the weapon the Crongus will
use to finally destroy you.
[John Sheridan whispered into both Exadore's and Rick Hunter's
ears.]
John Sheridan: Good speech, where did you think she got it from?
Exadore: I don't think she knows but that speech was from the days when
the UCE was being formed and some American president told it to
the now recovering UN and just a few months before the 2nd
Terrorist's war and the speech was different from hers and from my
research shows that it was the speech that joined the once divided
Earth into one united planet and was taught to students on every
colony of the UCE and most other independent human
governments so it was inbeded deep within her and altered it
slightly when she spoke it.
John Sheridan: Oh.
[Int. shot of the Earth President's office on Earth and President
Clark had pushed a button under his desk and all of the Curtains
were suddenly closed tight and the room was dark instead of the
desk.]
Computer[VO]: Conference. Shielding. Activated.
[From out of the shadows a bright green/yellow light appeared and
then a Crongus Warlord appeared and walked toward the
President.]
President Clark: Greetings Warlord Daeton, I got a message from you that wanted a
secret conference with me?
[Daeton was wearing a translation box that looked like an octopus
with a metallic disk for a head around his neck. When Daeton
spoke, he had the voice of actor Jeon Conary.]
Warlord Daeton: I have a proposition to make with your government that will make
your species the ultimate power of this part of the galaxy.
President Clark: And what about the rest of the galaxy?
Warlord Daeton: Well, let's just say that we have plans for that part for our own
needs Mr. President.
[ A subtitle read "To Be Continued" appeared and the camera
fades.]
So watcha think? Review about it.
