Whatever happened to the alliance we had since now everybody seems to be fighting each other.Also Albedo 65% of the time this RP is plunged into intergalactic war so you might as well just join into the fray.

The usual stuff happened, the Collective tried to do something to benefit its self and then everyone else did something which messed it up, so the Collective decided it will deliberately mess everyone else over, and Faust got involves and the Collective gets to shake its fist at the Equestrians and throw threats which it will almost certainly deliver on in the future, just like in the last RP, and plunge us into another galactic war. Yay more war! Lol

Collective flagship, Bridge

"88909, we have received new directives. We are to abandon system and return to Triarius immediately."
"I do not care if this order came from the Supreme Overlord himself, we..."
"As a matter of fact it did. All ships must return to Triarius immediately"
"But the imperial threat-"
"Is irrelevant. Let the Equestrians waste their lives defending their system, we have more important tasks"
"The LCF aboard the flagship, they..."
"Are irrelevant. The ship will destroy its self rather than face capture, anything else they achieve is worthless"
"The Imperial Emperor is in that ship! Without him..."
"His relevance is near zero. Whether he lives or dies his empire will endure until crushed, whether he lives or dies, extra dimensionals will still keep invading, unless we return to Triarius." 88909 paused before grudgingly nodding
"Set the course. Call in Fausts latest violation"

Triarius, Collectivisation

The Primicerii major sat around the... 'table', with the UU representative. On the table sat an alien assembly of food, from strange reddish vegetables to what seemed to be lava in holes across the table, and across the table was strewn a massive pterodactyl like bird, cooked and beheaded. Over food, they talked of the pending unification, exchanging details of their power and stratagem for universal collectivism. Beings and robots to deliver food to the tables. These beings were from the lower kyn, and came from any number of the species of the Collective.
"Autonomy would be maintained somewhat, you would have devolved powers to control this universe."
"Understandable. What of those who have been overly resistant to our collectivization so far? The Equestrian Empire namely"
"They must be eradicated, along with their deity."
"We knew their government form and goddess must be destroyed, what we meant was how? It's-"
"No. They just be destroyed, their entire race. Their clinging to outdated systems merely proves their inferiority and pathetic nature, and their magic poses an innate threat to the Greater Good. They are filth, we must grind them into dust and scrape them as excrement from our boots" The UU representative ranted, somewhat taking the Primicerii off guard and darkening the atmosphere of the meeting
"But surely we must teach them, wasting their abilities is-" One of the Primicerii began, only to be cut off agaun
"From what we have heard from you and seen across the stars, their entire filthy race is a blight upon sentients. We are to claim the mantle, we are to be the almighty race, not them. We are above all others, not them. They are screaming filthy demons, they're only good when dead." The UU representative spat, cursing their name under his breath. Whatever encounters the UU had with some alternate universe Equestrians has obviously ended in a lot of bad blood
"But-"
"There is no questioning the word of the Primicerii, the Equestrians are a dangerous pox, like a pox they must be cured." The room fell silent, before the Primicerii slowly nodded, not wanting to waste their chance at creating a universal union. After all, they themselves had no love for the Equestrians. There was an awkward silence for a few moments, before another Primicerii spoke up
"On to other matters then..."

((Fail, it was supposed to end the universal drive bullshit by completely denying universal travel. Actually wait to see how things play out or maybe ask? -.-))

((Also, this is a massive deus ex machina, so please be quiet. Faust is the biggest affront to fair play in this RP, so to blow stuff up without even asking 'whats going on' is absolutely ridiculous. You have currently pulled the bigger deus ex machina, even if I did use this to create universal travel, it would be a smaller deus ex machina (and debateably so, since we know universal travel is possible, that there are other collectives, and that for every failure of the collective in this universe there has been a success in the other universe), than what you have just done. You have literally stopped an entire fleet because of the entire god thing, which is quite literally a god from the machine. To save the heroes, you literally pulled god. Seriously, duck? That is your answer to everything, to have this unstoppable failsafe in your back pocket -.-))

"Faust, we are locked in the transitional phase, if you are strengthing the barrier then yes, the tears will be forced through one side or another of the universal boundry, you and I are BOTH inside this transitional section, we are applying pressure to the universe and you are holding the barrier up, eventually the strain will become too great and the universal barrier will collapse. Either we will all be killed by storms before you can achieve this, or this will happen and then we will all be killed by storms. And Faust, you are in that figure, as are your Equestrians. The threat is posed to all parties involved from extra universal travel,you are threatening to break the secondary/primary boundary... Why don't yu just stay out of mortal matters? You show so much ignorance of logic and so much disregard for life and safety that it would be better for all parties that you just let things play out, but instead you insist on dabbling and..."
"Enough!" Came the cry of 88909 "Horsie, come out and play, I'll tear off your creations legs and beat them go a pulp with the bloody end! We have no time for delays, not from high command, not from you, not from anyone. So get out of the way or I'll destroy the Equestrian worlds and serve their children up as snacks! Hara-Ka is the biggest and the strongest"
"88909, restrain your emotional reactions and personal political views."
"Denied, keep quiet"
"This one obeys."

Collective meets Collective

The figures stood on either side of the holotable as it whirled to life, displaying a Collective logo. The other Collective began to talk
"Statement: The greater good dictates that we unite into one all serving universal model".
"Response: Whatever the greater good demands, we shall do." There was a pause from the UU representative, as he looked towards the view screens, giving a puzzled look before continuing
"Inquiry: You have not yet obtained the mantle, why is this?"
"Extra-Universal invasion and the interruption of an Extra-Dimensional entity blocks any attempt to reach the level of ascension and take the mantle. Inquiry: Why are you not ascended?"
"Response: Ascension is not the end, nor is it currently either of our immediate futures. Our time is not yet up. Notice: We have accepted you into the universal union, attach yourself to High Command." The figure passed a small data chip over, which the Supreme commander slipped into the holotable
"Statement: Deployed to overwatch, we shall become attached to high command to await our instructions."
"Notification: Report current status on socio-economic standing"
"Response: We are overpopulated, request emergency movement of part of our people to a separate universe. Request inter-universal drive"
"Problem: Both requests are granted, however inter-universal travel is now impossible. The barriers are being strengthened as we speak, your universe is suffering hole after hole after hole, we are reducing this. Only universes accessed from this universe within the past 24 hours shall remain accessible. All others shall be cut off. Enough space for a single trip to another universe remains. After that, it will take life times for the barrier to reduce its self to a state ready for inter universal travel."
In unison, hearts sank and the next voice was somewhat dismayed
"Request reasoning?"
"Repeated universal invasion, in addition to other... activities has resulted in a situation where you are in danger of collision. We have corrected this. Communication with those outside the universal is possible, but actual travel of any large object or large amount of energy shall be impossible. As a result, you will be safe from the interruption of further Imperial Attacks."
"Request further information"
"Part of our fleet shall remain to reinforce you, collectivization must occur to the point where you dominate the galaxy. We expect this by the time we are able to reach you once more. We have brought with us something to deal with your extra-dimensional problem, though the bulk of military and economic"
"We shall continue collectivisation talks over nourishment, request you follow."
"Affirmed, this one shall follow"

Equiis transitional space

The Overseer of the third group grinned and tapped a button, speaking
"But this is not your universe, Faust. You are in our world now. And these are our rules. The only way to prevent us entering Equiis is to strength the barrier, by doing so you subsequently destabilize the energy feeding into the tears opening, thus forcing the storms into our universe. Look around us. All these will be bigger by a scale of several quadrillion in our universe. And if you remove them, you break the conservation of energy and thus break all laws of physics. In addition, we are most dissatisfaction with your repeated intrusion, you are treading a very thin line. I should think you would be a little smarter than that."

Collective Space, Triarius

"Praelatus Meus, Incoming extra universal signatures, we are detecting..." The ships appeared on the view screen in their thousands, and he stared on "In the name of..."
A transmission began to play
"We are the Collective. We are the Universal Union. Brothers, allow us to dock. Talk with us Parem Habui, we are one and the same."

After the Imperials are finished, I am going to put an end to the Collective Hunting Down inter-universal drives in perhaps the most annoying way possible for them hehe

Void of the Stars II: Return to the Stars [Sci-Fi] [Always Accepting]

Collective flagship

"Praelatus Meus Non-Exogen life forms detected upon Imperial flagships, they shall likely kill the personnel on board" An officer reported, and the fleet master rose, turning and slowly leaving the bridge, ranting and apparently having temporarily broken down. A Saeva Simius, 88909, renowned for his aggression, impulsiveness and disregard for all life, took the chair as per the Fleet Masters contingency instructions
"All ships jump into system, prepare all weapons. Today they shall know fear"

Equiis

The Collective ships appeared in system, two ships drifting around the perimeter of the nearest sun. They all opened fire on the Imperial ships, which two cargoships launched themselves forwards and self destructed on either side of the flagship, the dark energy expanding with the energy it consumed from the flagships shields and later the flagship its self, likely resulting in massive destruction.
This would only be compounded with all the weaponry which fired next, thousands of hardlight cannons, hundreds of energy projectors and well over a dozen dark energy casters all let loose on the Imperial flagship

Out going channel to the Imperials

*Animalistic howl* "Hara-Ka! Hara-Ka! Hara-Ka! Haha!"

Overwatch network

"Apply!"
"889"
"Unit 889, report activities immediately."
"Amputating Imperial Flagship"
"Allies already have that well in hand, desist and engage the other ships."
"Negative, they have denied us our goal, we shall deny them theirs. The other imperial ships shall be destroyed shortly, I have created a plan for such."
"Unacceptable, we are not on their level."
"No, you are not on their level. I am. "
"Your people are integrated fully into the Collective, they receive rights other client species do not. Do not risk that status, do not make us regret our decision to allow Saeva Simius to hold Higher Command positions, would you rather that it lie exclusively with the Triarii again?"
"If it means I am able to do this, yes."
"889, where is your commander?"
"His command has lapsed, he broke down in fear."
"Fear?"
"He has failed, the consequences for his failure will be severe"
"Place him back in command imm-"
"He will not accept command"
"Find another adequete Unit"
"I am an adequete unit"
"You are impulsive, you are not correctly built for command. Your programming dictates tha-"
*Connection terminated*

Uh...

Okay, well we've jumped all over the place and done a couple of U-Turns while I've been gone, I see. I am afraid I shall have to withdraw for several reasons, but mostly its simply that my interest has diminished.

I wish you all the best of luck and hope you all have fun :)

Keyguyperson said
"Any form of independence impedes the Great Mission. Your people will be enslaved or destroyed. We not not negotiate, we have no mercy. In most universes we come across, your people are just like us. The only freedom is in the escape from reincarnation, and only through elimination of hostility or dying for a just cause can allow one to escape. I shall provide that just death for all beings! Never again will the multiverse be tainted by the ability to oppress! We will be freed from the cycle, thank us, for we save you from existence!""Anyone will apologize a thousand times in the most sincere way possible if they are brought down." Said Fairlan "But the moment they are set free, they return to who they were before. Only the best people can change." Hearing Robert and Faust's words, his antennae folded to the side slightly, the Delphan sign of sadness. It seemed as though he had been genuinely hurt by the idea that he had made Robert feel bad. He tried his best not to show it, turning his watery eyes away and hiding his antennae by scratching his head."L-let's just get whatever this is over with." He said in a complete monotone, a tone that Urania and the engineer once again recognized. Thought Urania

"You mistake death for an escape rather than a doorway to something word, I promise you your dead admiral is wishing she was alive and in our possession, for her soul is in the hands for the dark Gods of Chaos. Certain species possess this "Soul" like aspect... Yours is among them. This means that using death to escape is a logical fallacy. Bringing all sentients into a single entity is a better way to provide an escape than killing them all, hence why slavery is the more logical choice then simply destruction. Death is no escape, slavery is temporary, unity is forever. Existence needs no escape, existence is your eternity, existence is today and your future. We thank you for your intentions, but scold you for the logical failings of your argument. Unite with us and together we shall apply a logical philosophical argument to our expansion in the multiverse, your current one is defunct, unless your a privy to information we are not, in which case we would like you to present it to us."

Flagship, deep space

"Negotiations are faltering. We shall prepare to enter system and assist. The Emperor is void of logic, it seems. Prepare all weapons for attacks on the Imperial ships, prepare boarding teams, we shall take out as many of their ships as possible."
