As soon as the fleet detected the Jurian warships, they began requesting for immediate aid from any friendly fleets nearby. The head of the fleet had already commanded the ships to power down all weapons and escape methods, against a superior enemy they would have to give into demands. "Jurian fleet, we've been sent on a mission to explore and expand our borders, we mean no harm. Given the chance, we promise to leave immediately and not to repeat this action again. But we will open a hangar for your marines," the Rurnian commander sent a message back in the Rurnian tongue. 

Troops on board the flagship took up defensive positions around the available entrance to the ship, preparing for any hostile action. This was definitely a bad start for the expansion program.

Back on the capital planet of Razek, reports coming in regarding the state of the fleet was met with distress and worry. For now the public was not informed, but the government buzzed with activity. Talks about a possible war with the Jurians if they took hostile actions, and how to deescalate the situation. A fleet was mobilized and sent to the system bordering the location of the current fleet, with orders to do whatever they could to allow them to escape, given non-military personnel were onboard certain ships. 

Of course everyone who knew about the situation realized that the Jurians were playing on their superior power. Appeasement was a terrible strategy but it was the only thing available to them for now.
