Worm Squadron
Episode VIII
Earth Worm rising
Grand Admiral Worm was busy looking at one of the many sensor consoles on his the flagship; the Termite Worm Destroyer Wormeara. To some it was surprising that he had obtained the rank of Grand Admiral, since everyone in the galaxy knew that the late Termite Emperor had a prejudice against worms, never less Worm had been one of the top officers in the Termite Navy; five years after the battle of Wendor he assumed command of the shattered Termite fleet and vowed to crush the fledgling Worm Republic. "Sir, this report just came in." Worm turned around to see Captain Welleon; Captain of the Wormeara holding a data pad. "Report Captain." "Sir the sentry ships reported being trailed by two squadrons of W- wings; but Commander Wishel thinks he lost them." "Unlikely Captain," replied Worm. "Worm Republic commanders are very determined; I wouldn't be surprised if we see those fighters again. "Yes Admir-," Welleon never got to finish his sentence. The alarms immediately went off and the Wormeara's crew raced to battle stations. "Sir, four Worm Frigates and three squadrons of W-wings off our starboard bow," the comm. officer reported. Worm turned to his subordinate. "Captain, how much do you know about dirt clods?" "Not much Sir," Welleon replied diplomatically. "You should take time to study it, Captain. Those ships...are Welmin." "Welmin? You can tell those are Welmin ships?" "You should take time to study dirt clods, Captain." Captain Welleon looked at Worm with a dazed look on his face. "Shouldn't we signal the rest of the fleet? The Wudicator will be here in 20 minutes." "No," replied Worm. "The last thing we want to do is draw in more of our ships." He turned to the comm. officer in the port crew pit. "Deploy Termite Interceptors, ship down 15 degrees."
