Several extraordinary stories of my family ancestors were unfolded throughout generations that now converged into this moment, but certainly not all of them. Many remain mysteries, others like puzzles and like riddles without an answer
All of them are like a field of asteroids around a huge planet, thats how I sense them in my memories the stories that I was told by my predecessors in order to gain the knowledge of them. Knowing that in a future, someone in my bloodline will discover the reason to be there. Maybe Im the one, but who knows this? The reality that many of us have to confront is that we all have in our bloodlines, truly lawful grand uncles & ancestors many of them settlers and deep space explorers, but also, smugglers, pirates, outlaws from diverse regions of the known universe, and maybe the not so known. I recall many stories told to me about parallel shattered universes, of people of my family swallowed by riffs and black holes. Even some of them were never found at all.
Others, that after three <3> or four <4> generations appeared in strange vessels with unknown tech and unidentified weapons, hidden now over sectors that remain to be charted. Many are secrets only entrusted to very few of my house breed. The Rhein, now know in the modern Sirius as Rheinland, hides many secrets. Im glad that my chief engineer came from Stuttgart, educated in New Berlin and Munich. He is gifted, no doubt about it. One of those stories are the missing gold nugget-like minerals that were changed in form and shape which had weird inscriptions in other alien race dialects that only can be seen with modified optical optometric instruments that need to be put together and, were hidden deep in Nomad and Phantom domains. This treasure will allow to complete setup of the battleship given to me by my father.
But what abilities are necessary to achieve a successful exploring expedition to go there, & once Im there, where next? I only have vanishing flashbacks of possible clues but Im unable to be calm enough to focus and concentrate by looking into those memories. I need to achieve the skill of my ancestors to try and have a shot on it. When I will have this time if Im also tortured in my mind knowing that my wife was captured by them?...
The evolved Nomad breeds: the common known parasitic Nomads, the Das Wilde human alike form but evil possessed, the Guardian Keepers and other mutations that came from those squid-like aliens, as old as the Big Bang itself. As per was I was told they evolved into four forms.
In which the fourth one is not known to us & has neither been seen by a human. My young wife was captured by the Wilde for experimentation on-board a luxury vessel Dianna near Cortez. She had my two kids alone in it [Girl and the Boy] and wasnt near to protect them. The liner vessel was badly damaged in the attack; they pulled-out all the passengers in different Nomad vessels, to enslave them. This evil scheme was cut short; however, as other humans later managed destroy several of those ships. What I only know is that the kids are alive but they were split from each other. A few of the Nomad vessels were intercepted by the good guys and also bad guys. The girl has never seen me yet neither the boy, but I have information that when the Nomad attack happened, the news of the attack flashed all over Sirius and many operations were mounted and headed for the interception. The Girl is fine and was highly educated by the Bounty Hunter Guild after the BH Guild interception wing rescue operation, she fights well. I made arrangements to see her but isnt easy, many dangerous trips on Sirius, but they are certainly paying off. The Boy was taken by a wing of pirates and I dont know how hes handling. He must be deep in Gamma space. Some day Ill see him again if hes alive, and Ill try to do my best to gain my other part of my own bloodline. If hes alive I surely know that he is very skillful since that runs strong within our genes.[i]
In this moment, as for me, my BS vessel is grounded, after friendly support assistance provided given to two brave KNF Officers that were outnumbered by Blood Dragon Forces. My crew was able to distract the Dragon wing supported by other outlaw pilots gaining attention eliminating one of them meanwhile the KNF Wing leader commanded his pilots & fought against all odds taking that window to overcome successfully the Dragon menace. After that, I ordered my first officer & crew to leave me in Kusari space and to take the vessel to a shipyard. The BS vessel is not finished yet, since cant withstand in an encounter to comparable battlecruisers, requires many work and is not authorized by the sector main forces. My main scientific engineer and skeleton crew will take care of it since Im to enlist & make the attempt to join the Kusari Naval Forces.
If the time comes and the planets align with the authorization of the KNF in a few years, I will head to Nomad & Phantom territory to look for the instrument parts. How this will be done is yet another unknown.
A portion of the family wealth is enough to cover my enlistment and preliminary expenses. I already sent a transmission of intention to the KNF High Command to formally apply to be a defender of the Kusari space. My only hope is the affirmative validation of the KNF. Id been flying around in the sector for more than a Sirius Standard Year. My nearest goal is to awaken the fighter, use my sword well, and shoot the first shot in every fight to come. One thing that I learned from my own genetics is that who shot first, shot a few, and Ill protect the emperor, the shogun, and the noble Kusari houses by shooting effectively my first shots for sure.
I was at the Planet new Tokyo, at Hotel Nu-Seiyo Ginza - New Tokyo, VectorID: 20-24-17 Chinzan-so, in the 27-Acre Facility of the Hotel Gardens when the transmission from the KNF High Command, by Admiral Hikaru Sulu san himself, commanding officer of the Sokaku, the Kurashiki, the Yamamoto and the mighty Tawakemono.
I was excited by the transmission. The KNF High command evaluated affirmatively my application. This is a New Dawn. I must go to the Dojo to do some trainning with my sword. Since will be little late after the training, I'll then have a dinner, see the news to explore what is exactly happening and will check out from the Hotel tomorrow.
The transportation from the hotel outstanding, provided by Airway Yurakucho line of Nu-Ginza Kyobashistatlan.
I not foreseen any inconvenients with all the service personnel from the hotel to assist me. Today it's a great day, I shall begin to walking the path within the first sunstar's rising.
I went to the luxbar at the Hotel, really a techy one. And in the news they were recapping from 815 A.S. the Battle of the Forces at Tau-31. I recall as told by my father words about the decisive encounters with Bretonia in which the regroup the forces by splitting the huge fleet in a series of formations called; "The Octagon Formations". I remember how exited he always was telling them, cause the ships within were almost impossible to be flanked emerging and regaining part of the Octagon shape formation when attacking huge vessels and cruisers. Then when the Annihilation was achieved the battle group commanders shape-shifted the Octagon by pitching forward and back the Octagon to crossfire fighters and bombers. No wonder over 85% of the original fleet came back home after the retreat of the Bretonia fleet to Leeds. I remember like now he was screaming in total happiness; After the regroup strategy meeting of the forces ; "The Octagon Formations counterstrike was meaningful and save us". The was the prestige achieved and gained by the forces. That's why it's not an easy path to become part of it. Because once there, they act and move like a once piece body.
I'll try now to have a few drinks and head to one of the Outpost stations, I need to get a new training ship......
The vessel is safe at New Tokyo sector. I made it after an attempt by agents to intercept me. That attempt will be costly for the KNF enemies. The training is tough but will sharpening the pilot at the edge of the blade like a Razor. The hours at the SYM will pay off and will pay good. The Tau's battle, the Honshu interceptions and the S-13 Skirmishes are paying off too. Let's see how big are the guts of the enemies of the Emperor sons and colonies. Everyday more volunteers are being trained to achieve successful victories all over Kusari space.
As to my son and daughter the findings seems to be near. I have notice they were to be located, let's see what is to be reunited with them again.
There are many agents and double agents everywhere...no one to be really trusted, so I must proceed with extreme caution.
