Disclaimer: I think it would be shorter if I said only what I actually own. I own the planet names Jrebera, Nerthoria, Zerin, Irora, Rethorec, and Trior. I own the characters Alex Kerios, Meria Krithita, Trolec Verrtsi, Hreth, Youkai, Nethretor, Theoric Harredir, and Hetroric Deriath. I own the Puppy, Raven, and Vengeance Marauder Battlemech chassis, as well as the Warmechs.

Trolec Verrtsi and his Storm Raven stood there watching the massive and brutal destruction. "This new clan, they have no respect for the ways of the clans, they have no respect for the words of the great Kerenskys. They must be taught a lesson. Perhaps a Grand War council must be made in order to band together against this dangerous foe. Maybe even a Trial of Annihilation! Computer: open a communications channel with all the Khans and ChaKhans of all the clans as well as with the current leader of the Inner Sphere."

"Opening comchannel."

"Who dares to call all Khans in the clans? Your identification says you are a Jade Falcon Nova Commander. Explain yourself!" the Wolf Khan said angrily.

"I am Trolec Verrtsi, I have called you all recommending that we all take action against a single clan. I have spied on them during their first mission of their campaign for Terra. Sending the visual data now." Trolec said as he uploaded the file.

After a couple minutes, the comchannel opened up again. "You were right to call upon us Trolec Verrtsi. We are hereby conducting an emergency meeting of the Grand War Council at Strana Mechty as is our tradition. We will depart shortly to decide upon an ilKhan." The Jade Falcon Khan Hetroric Deriath. Trolec smiled as he imagined the destruction and chaos as all the Mechwarriors and Elementals and Aerospace Pilots battled with one clan.

"WARNING! Enemy Battlemech has locked on with LRM40.Incoming transmission. Shut down or die Trolec Verrtsi you Jade Falcon scumbag!" the computer said.

"It is too late Alex! Your clan is doomed to be Annihilated!" Trolec yelled as he shut down his 'Mech.

"I don't think so Trolec. I myself have survived a Trial of Annihilation! I have trained all of my warriors to know everything that I do. They all can now survive a Trial of Annihilation! My clan is unstoppable! You and the rest of your foolish friends should never have underestimated the strength of the Dark caste! Now those who you banished are now taking their vengeance against you Trolec! Now it is our time to darken the universe as it was meant to be! Now it is the time of the Dark Star clan! And your time to come into us and become an Abtakha! Get your ass in here or die Trolec!" Alex yelled triumphantly. Trolec realized that, in order for the coalition to have any chance at success, he needed to survive. He had to comply in order to have a chance at letting the Jade Falcon clan claim Terra for their own.

"Alright fine, I'd better become an Abtakha however!" Trolec said, his face hidden in shadow. "We will see treacherous Jade Falcon, we will see how the entire clan feels about your espionage!" Alex said, his smile broad. The clan flew back to Rethorec, not caring that Trolec see how to get there.

"I am sure we can come to some agreement instead of this insanely radical action OvKhan Meria Krithita." Trolec said, trying to dissuade the young and influential Khan.

"No Trolec, we cannot. This is my time for vengeance for all the insults that have been directed towards me simply because I am a freebirth. This is my time for vengeance for the massacre of my parents, friends, and family. I will not stop any of this Trolec, no. Alex and I will continue our conquest no matter who stands in our way. You must learn this Trolec. We have decided that your arms will be cut off and sealed with fire. You will then be sent back to the Grand War Council as an example of our fury and our seriousness. Either that or you will be tortured to the brink of death, healed, then tortured yet again. We will do this for many weeks until your body finally dies. We will then send your burnt, broken body to the Grand War Council as an example of our sadistic tendencies and our fury. Alex and I will conduct the torture, publicly. You are to choose your path. Choose quickly and choose wisely elder Mechwarrior." Meria said menacingly. Trolec could se in her eyes that she did not joke around when it came to torture.

"Easy, I choose whichever path will get me to the Inner Sphere alive. You were gonna accept the opposite of whatever I said, but there was a chance that you would accept exactly what I said. So I chose whichever path will get me to the Inner Sphere alive." Trolec said, trying not to screw himself over.

"Well now, I guess I was right to say that you were a wise one, or perhaps you have gotten into this situation before Trolec? Let me see your arms…" Meria said as she lifted up Trolec's sleeve. "Just as I expected. Mechanical arms. It seems you would go to great lengths just to stay out of the Dark caste." Meria said.

"Of course! To be sent to the Dark caste is the greatest dishonor possible! Worse even then a Trial of Annihilation! We Jade Falcons are proud most of our strength, and any weakness means the rest of your life will be spent as an outcast! I am also Trueborn and very proud of it! I am far superior to you foolish freeborn bandits!"

"WATCH YOUR TOUNGUE! Why do you think that you were captured by a Freeborn? The Warrior Eugenics programs have weakened our race, depriving it of our one true strength, Love! Only with True Love can a warrior finally realize her true destructive capabilities. Nicholas Kerensky was a fool to deny our race of this so very important piece of ourselves! The Dark Star Clan is here to right this! We are retaking Terra to make it as it should have been in the first place! No monetary system, the freedom to marry whomever you want, the freedom to choose your profession, and no more damned castes or trueborns!" Meria yelled, her fury knocking Trolec to the floor.

"I guess you won't be dissuaded from this now will you?" Trolec replied, trying to get up again.

"Trust in this and only this information that you receive form any of us Trolec, our Warmechs will defeat you and the rest of your scum. We will no longer tolerate the injustices that your people have put upon us Freeborns. We will annihilate you Trueborns and make sure that you never, ever come to be again for a human born through the Eugenics programs is a human without a soul, an abomination to all sentient life! We will make your race extinct, and make sure that it stays that way. Goodbye Trolec." Alex said as he walked into the room. He took up his scimitars and sliced the artificial arms off of Trolec's shoulders, shorting out millions of circuits and burning the remaining living tissue painfully.

"I will not give you the satisfaction of screaming in pain Freeborn!" Trolec yelled.

"Good, we don't want any." Meria said cruelly. They threw Trolec out the door, into the prisoner hold of the dropship, making it so that he lands on his shoulder.

"You will be judged by the entire Dark Star clan Trolec, if I were you, I would brush up on your speeches!" Alex said cruelly, a dark smile spreading across his face.

"Damn you to Hell Alex!" Trolec yelled.

"Thank you Trolec, I will gladly meet you there after I take it over!" Alex responded, laughing. The Dark Star dropship soared into the sky like a raven soaring into the air.
