[b]Equestrian Fringe Space, Random Lunar Warship[/b]

"How much longer we going to be sitting in this box of metal?" said one of the pilots to the navigator

"Few more hours, then someone else can take this ship and go on these boring scout runs." replied the Navigator "Hey, I am getting some signals from a foreign ship here"

"Standard procedure, raise shields and broadcast a message in machine code." said the Captain as the ship began to move towards the location of the signals. The Lunar Warship was another Equestrian ship that differed from the standard design style, mostly being a really dark color with black or white trimming. Missile pods and Balefire cannons were scattered about the hull, being a bit deadly to anyone unprepared for such a attack

"This is a scout ship for the Equestrian Empire, please state your name and intentions, we are calling a diplomatic vessel this way." was heard from a broadcasted signal from the Lunar Warship. The atmosphere on the ship went from boring to excited, it was rare to get to be apart of first contact.
