[b]Message to the Triarian Collective[/b]
A Supreme Draconian is holding President Saveli hostage, reports from the guards say that the President is being choked by the Supreme, but is being kept barely alive. He is negotiating through a guard, using his neural transmitter to give orders. The Supreme has threatened to destroy the entire area if anyone tries to save the President. We do not know the motives of the Supremes, or even if this specific Supreme is acting under official orders. It is likely that the Supremes are annoyed with our interference in their attempts to 'save' the Equestrians and Kaiyouans. We know you will likely not help us, but please do not fight against us. It will be a dark day when Terragen kills Triarian."

Spec-ops teams have been deployed to the building, and they are grouping up with the Equestrian forces. The troops are equipped with four weapons, a high power railgun for clean shots straight through walls, an electrolaser rifle, a conventional laser rifle, and a coilgun pistol (for the quiet takedown of enemies). They were wearing self-repairing adaptive nanoarmor for protection, but a few wore bulky shield generator backpacks. The team was composed mainly of Abh and Ethra'Hirel, but small numbers of Boskop were sent to stay outside the building and give orders. The Abh commander of the forces walked up to who appeared to be the Equestrian commander, and spoke.
"I am Commander Duheil of the Abh Star Forces, don't worry, I've been trained and have experience in ground combat. We are prepared for a joint operation, but it has to be a stealth op. We've brought self-repairing adaptive nanoarmor with us." Se said, holding out two jars of a thick black... liquid? "Pouring this on you will apply the armor, it can be made to change color with a thought. Once you order it to remove itself, it will flow off of your body and the nanobots reading your thoughts will exit your mind. There is no danger in this process. Also, since it is a Supreme Draconian we are fighting, we have decided to bring along our secret little helper."
A Draconian stepped out of the spec-ops squad, apparently smiling.
"Do not be alarmed, I am on your side." He said "Call me Ted, I'm officially a member of the Human Cooperative Exploration Corps, but I have experience with ground combat and got a training implant the moment I got my freedom. Also, I'm a Draconian. Fighting's in my blood, no matter how much I deny it. I might as well use that instinct for good."

With the new help, the network is coming along much quicker. Nanobots for the conversion of planets have already been dispatched, and the Allied Interstellar Federation has thanked the New Lunar Republic for their help.
