Disclaimer, I do not own Tenchi.
…………………………………….Muterian Nebula…………………………….
The renamed 5th Fleet was marshaling its forces. The Carriers Ares and Aad, the Venator Class Carriers/Destroyers Bruttii, Scippii, Julii, Parthia, Carthage, and Seleucia, five Colossus Class Battleships, Avenger, Honor, Freedom, Invincible, and Indomitable, on loan from the Cathoons, and 50 Frigates. All in all, 7,000 fighters, 3,000 Shuttles, and 700,000 Troops all poised to meet their destiny along with the Mystery Ship code named the Savior.
"Admiral Misaki, all ships report optimal conditions and are ready for launch." Captain Redik called from his chair on the Tactical Bridge.
"All right. All ships begin jumping in sequence for the Beta Quadrant, execute." With that order the fleet jumped into Hyperspace towards the Jurain Outpost line not knowing that the greatest test of wills was about to begin.

Sasami stepped onto the bridge of the Emancipator with her Guardians Azaka and Kamidake at her side. Trailing behind her was Grand Admiral Faki, "As you can see your Highness, the open canopy gives us an excellent view of space. The problem though is once the Shield collapses, this bridge becomes a fighter pilot's dream. Further, due to cutbacks we have few Judgment missiles with which to nail the humans at long range. That is why we have been pushed back."
"That's fine Admiral. I leave the conduct of the campaign in your capable hands. However, if there is a chance for peace, we will take it. My father may want this war, but the Holy Council is getting leery of his plans. The only reason they haven't demanded he step down is because there is no male heir to succeed him."
"I'm just a soldier your Highness, I follow orders. Which leads to your giving the nod to begin."
"Very well, jump us to Belk Outpost."
To be continued.
