Now continuing my story.

"FIRE!"

The last shell of the confederations fleet is shot and collides with the wing of the enemy.

"We destroyed their left engines sir, their movement is impaired. But we have not defeated them."

"Then for the confederation we die."

The ship's ion engines accelerate to full speed as it heads straight for the enemy frigate.

A computer aboard their ship says, "Enemy covering distance, apparently committing suicide. Fire all weapons at point blank."

Only kilometers apart, bursts of fire fly out from the ship and hit the Amsterdam point blank.

The ship began to break up, but it collided in a a firey death with the Sheiphiy's ship, destroying both and leaving no survivors.

8 Months later...

Location: Military Command in the Tyrik System.

"Chief, we would like you to know, that since the incident with the Amsterdams, no other contact has been made with the Sheiphiys."

The wise old man turns in his chair and looks right at the young luitendant.

"Move in the Zeta and ETA fleets into the Arklite system and recolonize the planet we lost with on of the Rock Spanders v. 3 in the Oblortron system. I want all ships in the Yoshri system to be on alert, for I fear their home system is nearby. I also want a scout sent out from Yoshri into the neighboring unexplored system. I want to see the Shipping fleet in the Yoshri system in our spaceports by the end of the year."

"As you wish, sir"

A Colossal ship slowly flies through space, it is a colony ship. The third version of the Rock Spander, colonizes rock planets.

It is headed towards a planet in the Arklite system that was once inhabited, but then invaded and destroyed by the Sheiphiy.

Seeing 2 fleets in orbit around the planted, the captain says, "Alright, let's settle down already."

1 Month later.

Military ops, Tyrik System. Planetary information Disclosed.

"Chief, the planet we reclaimed is right next to a planet of the Sheiphiy. They are so close to one another, that we can even fire missiles at each other. Which is what we have been doing for days."

"Isn't the zeta fleet made up of three North Carolinas? Order them to attack the planet. They have only a couple satellites and a space station in orbit. They will be no more than dust for us."

"Yes sir."

Comments? Questions? FEEDBACK PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Will finish writing the update after I play it out a bit longer...

A little spoiler for what's going to happen next.

Things will get better for the confederacy as a whole from here on in.
