[center] [H1] PREPARE FOR TAKE OFF! [/h1] [b]---------------------[/b] [hider=Music] [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XXIDKWImv8[/youtube] [/hider] ------------------------------- A echo of coughing metal wandered down the empty hallways,rattling the bruised green walls enough to shirk off years of dust down onto the large black cube below awkwardly blocking half of the hall. A buzzing hum of electricity arose within, flickering weak light behind the [i]"Power Protein"[/i] button, winking on and off before the rest of the buttons below each [i]"clicked"[/i] audibly and lit up as the cube inched itself up onto two previously retracted tank tracks. A vague bloom beamed behind the gruel of dirt and dust on its front, falling off as it rubbery tracks slodge forth in muflled bumps, each one leaving a trail of dust bunnies behind him as the [i][color=red]"Super Suppers"[/color][/i] word in obnoxious red lighting shaped font revealed itself. The dead ship yawned with a roar,its inner mechanical pipes thrusting through years of built up rust, almost letting out a painful yelp while the bulky bulbs shuddered from the red glare of emergency power to the pale, unexpressive beam of the same all too standard glare of overly powerful white lighting in every ship. Metallic bangs burst the silence as hidden guts gnawed at the labour of restoring the tomb back to life, the black stoic towers fizzling with palpable energy as vast tentacles of cables all twitched and slightly coiled their slimey, smooth eeel like skins while pumping power to the towers. Towers which had so many creases and brutalist jutting shapes they resembled a brain made up out of blocks. Several lifeless screens blipped an atom of light onto their screen, doing it several times in mimic of eyes adjusting to the light before a series of green text flickered from the darkness. [i][color=green]"Computerized Cognitive Compartment Active. Activating Safety Protocools. Warning: Thinking power above level 4. Safety Protocools insuffiecient. GOD UNIT now attached to GRID system. A.I active. Auto-Servitor now shutting down"[/color][/i] A red bulp in the corner of every room blurted out a loud beep, flashing crimson red. Each beep singifying each system of the ship that has shown no error before lift off. The ship did this several times with a brief silence before breaking it with a dizzying beam again. Suddenly the halls started to move and floor shook violently below them, swaying as if the world was starting to move as the beeping went on. The crews stomach lifted, then droped, each sudden thrust banging as metal coldly and violently gripped metal. Then it suddenly slowed down into a snail-paced acceleration that shook their spines akin to standing on a rough bus. [color=blue][b][h2]"ZELTA CREW 01. PREPARE FOR HYPER RAIL ACCERLATION"[/h2][/b][/color] A deep voice called out from some omnipotent source, roaring clearly like the voice of a cybernetic god. The front of the ship peered down the tunnel to infinity, stars stared back at them as giant claws pulled them from up above down a set of rails until they were firmly on the very edge of the star base and the cold void outside, Lucy head prodded out entirely into the abyss. A giant stram of immeasurable flat magnetic devices twitched forward and backward inside the tunnel, buzzling with a vibrant blue energy that dissipated immediately. ------------------------------- [img]https://space-facts.com/wp-content/uploads/milky-way.png[/img] ------------------------------- [color=blue][b][h2]"WHEN YOU ARE READY TO LIFT OFF ACTIVATE YOUR TRANSRECIEVER AND SAY SO ON YOUR COMMS"[/h2][/b][/color] [hider=Captains Choice] A: System 2B [img]https://www.outerspaceuniverse.org/wp-content/uploads/venus.jpg[/img] A system that has an unusual amount of HWZ and surprisingly very little stars. Most planets are icy, barren, dead or not compatible with human life. LOADS of ice covered rogue moons and large aasteroid in which many of the authority security and workers have been sent in to mine for resources. Most likely most-if not all- of them have moved on far along now from this location or returned to star base. Some haven't reported back or returned at all though... B: Cluster 523 [img]https://resources.eveonline.com/9b/9ba663f4106c123e_ada32e36b3f84efae685ef26a048b825[/img] A gigantic cluster of strange floating materials, abnormalities and mostly dead ships from centuries ago. Security has been sent to check it out and supposedly most of these ships are very...VERY old, around Lucy age or older and seemed to have mostly been inflicted by weapons of that years make. Most likely a war from outsider factions of the time. The ruling idea is that somehow a lot of the ships old system and still active processes might of made some of the odd anomalies through time and exposure. C: Red Zone [img]https://www.naic.edu/~gibson/30dor/tarantula_ha_b_quart.gif[/img] A giant black hole is here. We don't know exactly the process but somehow a seemingly infinite chemical cloud of red gas is being spit out by it. A couple of ships have been sent to investigate the core and see if this wasn't some type of supposedly legendary-and impossible...in theory- white hole. But none have responded so far. Our scans and reports say there are a lot of moons in here. A couple of facility ships and supposedly inhabitable planets.
