Of course. But don't expect me to stay too long. I have my own promises to keep to other people.

King: *a bright flash occurs, and I step out of a newly made portal With Lt.Commander hux behind me, restrained and bound*

- *I see this, and my expression immediately shifts to one of rage*

You lay a finger on her, and I swear I'll-
King: *raises my hands*

No fingers have been laid. She came with me willingly.

Hux: *looks worn and exhausted, as if in battle. My eyes are wide open, as if having experienced a traumatizing event*

- Babe... I'm so sorry, I tried to save you-

King: but then you tried to trick my daughter. You had plans to go back on your word, miss Hux here relayed that information to me.

-*looks disgusted with King*

You vile bastard. WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!?

King: once again, I did nothing. You, however, lied to us. We don't take to kindly to lies. Honesty is the best policy.

Tsk tsk. Time to destroy them all.

Sheesh, my friend, don't you have all the time in existence? Why rush things? Take a load off, my friend. This could take a minute.

@souleaterfan320

Maybe, but I won't ever say no to more.

Not gonna lie, I'm getting major cult vibes, here. But you know? Whats really wrong with a little religion? Everyones gotta believe in something. You know what I believe in?

@souleaterfan320

*Another copy of me speaks*
Wasting time?

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Hey, this is my redemption arc that I was experiencing, bucko. You stoped by and threw a wrench into that idea.

@souleaterfan320

We'll give you a chance to be redeemed, alright. Just you wait.

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

You seem to really hold the guy in high regard, despite the fact he had your comrades murder a lot of people. Tell me, what exactly do you see in him?

@souleaterfan320

Who among us haven't? I'm sure your hands aren't clean, Harley.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Inimical>

Do I Have your word?

Hux : *with almost tears in her eyes, pulls on Harlock's sleeve*

Please... don't do this... If you go I-

Harlock: *clicks the comms off and instinctively covers her mouth with my hand*

Hux... Its for the best. I am of more value to them, since I survived an encounter. If this is fate for me, then thats fine. But I'm not letting you all die here. Not for nothing.

*removes my hand, and clicks the comms on, waiting for a reply*

@souleaterfan320

*One of my copies kicks its legs on the top deck of the ship*
Tick tock...

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*each copy of you appears on my radar*

@souleaterfan320

*More blips rapidly fill the radar until it's nothing but gleaming light*

*stares dumbfoundedly at the display*

Who the hell does she think she is? Wierd. Maybe I can talk our way out of this.

*clicks on the comms button*

This is Commander Harlock of the 4th EDB Cosmic Fleet. We are of the understanding that you are of Amaranthine. If this is true, then we know what you're capable of. Let's talk this out. No need for things to get messy.

@souleaterfan320

*A copy of myself appears on the back of each ship*

Myriad Reality

*elsewhere in the cosmos, a ship the size of a small planet floats amongst common space debris, laying within a large asteroid belt. Aboard the ship, Captain Harlock sat aboard the ship's hull, checking that it's many armaments are in pristine condition*

…hmm. Not much here… but it'll do in a pinch.

*a soldier walks up to him and solutes*

Harlock: at ease.

Soldier: *lowers her hand, and assumes a semi relaxed appearance*

How is the Armory? Everything fits to your standards, sir?

Harlock: indeed. We're not exactly low on munitions, but we definitely should restock at the nearest outpost. We'll survive, for now.

Soldier: agreed. All 12,300 units are accounted for, sir. Our ship is in proficient condition.

Harlock: excellent. Good work, Lieutenant Commander Hux. You're always so punctual.

*gently pokes her nose in a teasing, casual manner*

But, I can count on you in any situation, and that's what matters. Perhaps I owe you a drink for all your hard work, when we get back home.

Hux: That sounds like a plan. I definitely wouldn't refuse.
*she smirks, saying this in a similar manner*

Harlock: *smirks back*

I'll see you back on the Bridge, Lt. Commander.

Hux: Indeed. And Harlock? Please wear your uniform. You've got to keep up appearances with the others.

Harlock: *rolls his eyes*
Alright, I *guess* I can do that for you.

Hux: Thank you. And don't be so down about it. Just because it isn't your fancy pirate garb doesn't mean it doesn't look good on you, it's kind of cute, actually.

Harlock: Space Captain Harlock, cute? That's a new one.

Hux: *laughs a bit*

Keep yourself together, soldier.

Harlock: yes, Ma'am-

*the entire ship quakes under the weight of an unforeseen force, and the alarms blare*

Intercom: *clicks*

A large, unidentified, potential Category 8 force has launched an attack on our position! Man your positions!

Harlock: *my face changes to one of worry*

That's… not good.

*throws my naval jacket over my shoulder, and sprints towards the bridge, flitting up several flights of stairs and down several hallways before reaching his destination. When he gets there, he looks at a holomap in the middle of the center platform, showing a large, amaranthine portal*

….SHIT!

*looks up to the fellow soldiers manning their positions*
It's the Amaranthine! Immediate counter maneuvers! Shields on high, tilt the ship 3 units Starboard to aim the MBI Cannons on their position, Now!

Soldier 1: Of course sir… but this won't do anything to them.

Harlock: It'll buy us time, and that's what we need. I want 3 full squadrons of Mid-Speed Fighters on our left and right flanks from the enemy's perspective. Let's get to it!

*after the squadrons take their position and the ship's portside face is in view, Harlock watches carefully to see what comes out of the portal*

@souleaterfan320

*One of my clones already stands behind the fleet, observing their movements*

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Indeed we are. Shall we go?

@souleaterfan320

Start with a volcano treck?
