Merry Christmas Ya'll!

Decided to do this one over the other story's, when I got the chance.

By the way, the way the three view each other is;

Gautama - Ajax, Distrustful, Mainly over the past exploits.

Gautama - Arathorn, Neutral.

Ajax - Arathorn, Positive.

Ajax - Gautama, Positive, If a bit offended by the coldness.

(Ajax isn't trying to undermine them, just trying to survive as a team.)

Arathorn - Gautama, Slightly positive.

Arathorn - Ajax, Relaxed, Trust's him to not force his opinions onto him so no tension.

Silence.

Electric Piano.

Clock.

Blood.

Rewrite!

Didn't like what had happened in the last version, so, here ya go.

And!

I'd like to say thank you to justreidabook for checking through and Beta(ing?)

Tanks!

:-D

Again, rewrite, you guys/girls are killing me.

Information withholding and a bit of dialog between Arathorn and the Geth in the satellite.

And also, I've stated that the Geth satellite noted the increase of power, making them believe that Ajax had used a lethal amount of Eezo. No, Ajax did not use Eezo, he had thrusters and sent power to the fabricators on his ACU to supply said thrusters, no Eezo used. Sup-Com do not know about nor need Eezo. The power used by the fabricator was picked up by the satellite and the slower pace of planet-fall gave the Geth the conclusion of Eezo usage. It's the only thing they can conclude with current Mass Effect tech.

OK, rant over, enjoy Chapter 4, revision 3.

Ch 4.3 people.

Location; Perseus Veil/ Tikkun/ 3rd planet/ Adas

Year; 2181 CE

By the end of the first day, Ajax had managed to build a well defended base, before being pressured to sleep by Arathorn. While Arathorn had set up a network around the planet and Gautama had started construction on a 'Paragon' resource generator that had taken up most of their shared resources, although that changed when it was finished. Yet, it still left them with a lot of time and nothing to do but twiddle their thumbs. So they slept, the A.I keeping their bases running to design specs.

The next day was definitely more productive. Gautama decided to build three more 'Paragon' experimentals. While better at producing any needed resources for the trio, they were also quite volatile, and therefore kept well away from any other buildings. Arathorn had created stealth field generators at specific locations, covering the entirety of the planet by the time he was done. The Cybran's newly made experimental stealth field generator, the 'Mirage', reared it's head for this challenge. The experimental not only created a distortion field to intercept radar gathering devices, but dispatched nanites to coat their buildings and units in an invisibility field, disrupting visual as well, and in a wider circle than anything done before, pushing the Cybran forwards in stealth. Ajax started building 'Novax Center' satellite system so that they could get a closer look at the satellite that was watching them. At the same time, all three of them expanded their bases further.

All of this was possible because of the 'Paragon' that was first built, although progress slowed once again when they exceeded the generation output of all their resource generators, but not by much.

By the beginning of the third day, Ajax finished building the 'Novax Center' and started constructing the satellite system, Gautama had finished six 'Paragon' generators overnight and had built a CZAR in the morning, which she had somehow managed to take into the void of space, and Arathorn had created enough 'Mirage' stealth generators to cover the main portions of their three bases.

By the afternoon, Ajax's satellite had been manufactured for a connection between ground and space so that Arathorn could remotely hack their watcher from groundside, Gautama had created another CZAR as well as 22 tier 1 interceptors and 16 tier 1 attack bombers from inside of her CZAR's, while Ajax had deigned to create unit blueprints to fill in the gaps that were left from their entrance.

Gautama's CZAR's couldn't go very far away from the planet without a strong relay to provide a connection between her ACU and the unit's themselves, which was something their satellite also provided. She had thus decided to rectify the big hole in orbital warfare. They were stuck. Not permanently, but still stuck. Their unit's themselves were part of the problem, as the only ones that could get into orbit were the higher tier fighters and bombers, unless they were created in space to begin with, so their spare time was spent creating unit's for this new field of war. The requirements to create any ship in space made them too expensive and slow to build to be of any use. Having to send blocks of mass and nanites up via transports to build anything was too slow and inefficient. They instead decided to create a specially made 'Generator ship' to supply power for the construction so that they could cut this tedious step out of the process. Even then, it would still be an expensive, endeavor.

The warships of their new theatre of war would be engineers, frigates, carriers, and dreadnoughts, meant to be only used in the most desperate of times. Using a quantum gateway projector, Arathorn theorized that it was possible to send fleets through a door in space, like the Seraphim had used in their invasion of Earth... so long ago.

The ships would be very powerful, murals showing their extensive knowledge in the art of war. But still, they had to build them. At least, one the first carrier would be built there would be a few generators and fabricators in it to speed up their construction efforts in space, if only slightly.

When Ajax's satellite had made orbit, he had sent it straight towards its target while also giving a clearer signal to the CZAR's for Gautama. When it had managed to get within hacking range, Arathorn had gotten though in seconds, surprising everyone. The fact that the onboard 'Geth' programs did not resist, but instead had practically invited him in with something that seemed like curiosity made the all three of their heads spin.

Arathorn had sent the connection to Ajax, seeing as he was their 'leader' while the Coalition remained out of reach. Which was why he was speaking to thin air and the screen in front of him typed out responses and questions.

I can bring tears to your eyes, resurrect the dead, make you smile and reverse time.

I form in an instant, but I last a lifetime.

And CUT!

Look at the last section, it's important!

I think that was much better than the last one.

Thank you for the reviews, much appreciated, if you want a look at the galaxy map that I used, its...

Yes, they didn't decide to go close to Council or Alliance space. Reason? They have no need to.

If you want some action, you'll have to wait a bit more.

Gautama will fight, probably. Well, she has something to say towards the Batarians at the very least, so don't worry.

*Glances at RadioPoisoning review and promptly faints*

*A resounding smack echos throughout the room*

(He's not waking up!)

[Outa da way!]

*The sound of water sloshing and a splutter is made*

*Cough, cough* Eugh, what hit me?

(The floor?)

[I'z 'and an' da bukkit]

*Shakes head before looking back at the review*

Errrrrr? I was thinking about mass produced Human sized droids, very little help towards Shepard if at all and I don't like scaling thing to make anything equal, Mass Effect tech is just laughable, but Supcom tech utilizes little to barely any shields.

Everything else, erm... Sure? I think?

Thank you for reviewing, certainly gave me plenty to think about.

As for all the other reviewers, another thank you for reviewing, I hope you enjoyed the chapter.

Thank you. And good night.

(Indeed.)

[Nighty night!]

*Arguing ensures*

I... just... found... something... terrible.

Read this all the way through, good god, what have I done?
