Part 72 Communications SNAFU

The fleet which had been a centar behind Cain and his strike force moved in just as the KOKO was pulling up besides the Amozonians.

Zan and Devon looked out their shuttles window with awe as the Great Ship Galactica appeared along with ships as far as the eye could see.

"Zan are we dreaming?" Devon asked his friend.

"If we are don't wake me up. I have never seen so many ships and by the lords most are armed. Adama did it. He found help." Zan said. He fought back tears as he realized what this could mean. The colonies would finally have a chance.

"Adrianna was right her brother did go to get help." Devon said in awe. He had never quite believed that Adama would return. He thought that the last battle star had fled to save her own skin. Now however he saw not one but five battle stars. It was something he had never thought to see again. Especially since two of them had been missing for years. The Rycon and the Pegasus who would have thought it possible. "Well let's go find out what the hell took them so long."

Zan chuckled at this. It was so like Devon to complain when they had been handed a bloody miracle.

CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

Cain could not believe that a Colonial ship would not recognize the Pegasus. Diana was laughing at him and he began to smile. It was absurd in a way.

"Well darling that should remind you not to stay away so long." Diana teased.

"I was not gone that long. And I had Cylons to deal with!" He snorted.

She laughed as they walked to the shuttle.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Athena called the Galactica and Adama headed for his shuttle. He could hardly wait to see his family.

Noah and Micha who had both been on board followed him. All three commanders were eager to learn the fate of the Colonies.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

"Zan do you think Adrianna will get the message we sent soon?" Devon asked. He was still wary of the relay probes.

"Maybe. It all depends. Danzoff said those probes would work but…. I don't know. I guess it will depend on if there were any stray Cylons. I am betting they shoot the probes if only for spite." Zan replied.

"Well here is hoping. I sure don't want to just drop in. Your wife would be annoyed to say the least." Devon said with a grin.

"Yeh, don't I know it. Well at least there is good new." Zan said.

Even as they flew to the meeting an automated transmission was sent out. However as always a SNAFU happened. A lone Cylon raider picked it up. Only part of he message went through as per orders he made a suicide run unaware he was only attacking a communications probe.

This is KOKO we have made contact with----

The rest was cut off causing the Commander of the Colonial Defense Force to go pale. In Microns she was shouting for her ship to be readied to go after the KOKO.

"Keen we have to find the KOKO."

Her panic sent the newly reformed colonial military into action. Who ever had messed with the KOKO was in big , big trouble.
