Dalek Sec and the other members of the cult of Skaro would attempt to break the Genesis Ark, opening it, releasing the millions trapped within. It has been twenty-one days of building, the chameleon circuit keeping the Daleks hidden had been holding up. It was constructed from materials that welled from the megastructure, however, the field could not cover the megastructure itself, at least not yet.

The Chameleon circuit worked like a cloaking device, it analyzes the environment it’s in and adapts and changes the appearance of the object to outside observers.

The Cult of Skaro hid the Genesis Ark under the cloak, its metallic body shining and shimmering in the plain white glaciers. The Daleks worked quietly across from it, constructing a means of cloning. All Daleks are Kaled mutates, developed by Davros, their creator. Their emotions stripped away, leaving only the killer inside the shell.

[color=#2f5084]“Report progress on Dalek cloning facilities!”[/color] Dalek Sec screeched out in the usual metallic, somewhat electronic voice.

Dalek Caan reported in kind, [color=gold]“Cloning facilities is nearing completion!”[/color]

Then Jast reported, [color=#ffaa00]“Temperature control stable! Chameleon circuit is holding mimicry pattern!”[/color]

The Daleks shrill voices filled the air with reports, one interesting thing on the agenda was sustainable power, even when the megastructure was in Dalek control. [color=#ffaa00]“Extrapolating possibility of creating the Eye of Harmony…”[/color] Dalek Jast hovered only for a moment, [color=#ffaa00]“Probability of success is less than half!”[/color] he finally reported.

[color=#2f5084]“Estimate remaining time until arsenal is restored, Estimate! Estimate!”[/color] Dalek Sec repeated, his eyestalk pointed towards the three Daleks working on their projects. Dalek Caan answered [color=gold]“Eighty-one light cycles! If the Genesis Ark is opened, the time remaining will reduce!”[/color]

Their voidship hung in the air, with the engines shut off, waiting for its pilots to return. The Voidship has seen the horrors of the Time War, with parallel dimensions being opened, closed, and created to recruit people from their worlds, an endless supply of soldiers. Daleks used such ships to recruit them by slipping in and out of reality, jumping dimensions, and bridging the gap.

[color=#2f5084]“Overall progress on forward operations center, sixty-eight percent!”[/color] Dalek Sec barked.

Dalek Thay, Jast, and Caan kept everything operational, building many components and facilities. Long-range scans indicated that they were in the middle of two large concentrations of bio-signatures.

[color=#b2ff00]“Should we exterminate the adjacent lifeforms before continuing?”[/color] Dalek Thay presented the question, to which Dalek Sec replied [color=#2f5084]“Negative, scans are indicating a large concentration of energy in the Northern concentration. Unknown energy weapons are a possibility.”[/color]

Dalek Thay did not understand the negative, it was a tactical decision, but it was still against their order, [color=#b2ff00]“They are inferior! Daleks are superior!”[/color] he shouted, Dalek Caan voiced his opinion right after, [color=gold]“These are Humans, they are inferior! Impure! Exterminate!”[/color]

Dalek Sec then reminded them about the stratagem, [color=#2f5084]“Dalek revival stratagem is prioritized, we are but four, extrapolating possible outcomes…”[/color] a brief moment passed, [color=#2f5084]“Probability of sustaining at least one casualty, unknown! We must avoid losses at all cost! The Daleks must return to full strength at all cost! Prioritize the stratagem!”[/color]

[color=#b2ff00]“W[/color][color=gold]e o[/color][color=#ffaa00]bey!”[/color] The Daleks exclaimed, Dalek Sec remembered at that point how few the Daleks were, but to him it mattered not, The Cult of Skaro was enough. One Dalek could wipe out an entire civilization in their universe, but for now, he schemed, he plotted, he planned. The Cult of Skaro thinks as their enemies do, the Daleks will rebuild their strength even if it takes months, years, millennia, eons, even when time itself ends the Daleks wait because now, they are weak.

The completion of a basic Dalek cloning facility would take two light cycles – two Day-Night cycle of the array –. The Cult of Skaro continue to work, without rest, without hesitations, soldiers on a mission to preserve the Dalek race. The Genesis Ark will be opened, and when it does, not even God can help you if you get into a war with the Daleks.
