[center][h1][color=blue][b]=GEMINI BREAK OUT=[/b][/color][/h1][/center] The Black Sun have been monitoring an unknown human faction that threatens the formation of a free Republic, an Era of unity and peace, no more rampant civil unrest, no more rampant war, it was time to put an end to it one way or another, however this UAE or the United Anarchist Empire as ironic as it sounds is a threat to that ideal. Sector 15, Gemini Mining Facility, the Black Sun have been monitoring this for days, it was time for them to make a move, the fleet, a hodgepodge of stolen imperial ships modified and completely overhauled for their needs, along with several xeno ships that have been found abandoned or stolen from docks on imperial worlds, also heavily modified. [i]"This is The Hellfire, when do we engage?"[/i] The fleet admiral simply waved a hand at the glowing screens, and spoke in reply to the Hellfire's captain, [i]"When the sleepers say we can."[/i] Another ping this time it was encrypted, [i]"Captain, the prisoners in here just started a commotion, there are several dead and injured, some of the staff are diverted into the medical wing and morgue to transport bodies, this as good a time as any to strike." [/i] The communication was short and brief, the captain then opened fleet comms on a secure channel, [i]"All missile frigates and torpedo corvettes, prepare your payloads. Helmsman, get the ships to slow burn, I want the FTL drives to be ready, we are going to hit this place hard and fast."[/i] Activity started to fill the bridge and the ships alongside the main flagship started to whir their engines to life, their main weapons ready for combat. The captain of the main flagship Hammer of Thor then barked another order as he pulled up his other tactical view's and User interfaces. [i]"Ensign Cruz, scramble all squadrons, they hit first, make sure the pilots know to fly like bats out of hell am I clear!?" [/i] The Ensign then replied [i]"Sir the pilots are scrambling, they're launching now, all pilots ready for combat flight, they also wanted to relay that and I quote 'We'll give 'em hell Captain, just give us a keg of cold beer once we get back!' end quote."[/i] The captain chuckled and cracked a smile, [i]"Tell Mccormic to go to hell and start their assault, frigates and corvettes close behind!" [/i] The ensign nodded and the captain began his assault on the Gemini Asteroid facility, before doing so he opened comms to the sleeper agents [i]"Have you prepared your little surprise? Cause once you here fighting above I need you to give them that surprise."[/i] There was a short answer, [i]"Surprise is ready. Acknowledge signal."[/i] as he said that the fighters and bombers went into FTL and started the assault on the facility. as they exited faster than light they started darting in all different directions doing brilliant maneuvers, the frigates and corvettes were next, waiting for confirmation that the target is distracted, the fighters and bombers really making it seem like a random pirate attack, ten whole squadrons of seven fighter and bomber craft, making it seventy small craft, doing all sorts of evasive maneuvers, they are battle hardened and crazy pilots, willing to do stunts and maneuvers a normal EOM pilot wouldn't even dare do with his craft and they were damn cocky too maybe a little too cocky as they started their attack runs. The rest of the forces were ready to engage, at any moment, as soon as the point defense started firing. The captain then started his speech before going into battle himself. [i]"The Mist, a formidable opponent, but like many in my own fleet, it will be boarded and it will be captured, no survivors! let the black sun rise to the occasion once again."[/i] the engines whirred to life as the rest of the fleet readied itself, ten modified corvettes, five modified frigates, two modified destroyers, and two main line modified battleships, along with a compliment of several boarding ships and assault landers. The sleeper agents went along their business and heard the signal, their 'surprise' was ready. [@Wildman13]
