...From a distance two ships were travelling towards the Planet...

*****
{The_Damned} - O.k. we are approaching the Planet. I'll start the scaning process...
{The_Avenger} - Isn't a little odd that we havent met patrols from the Kusari navy? I mean
we are near the Empire's heart and we haven't been detected or intercepted.
{TD} - Well so far I am not concerned. We gotta do this fast though , I'm not in the mood for
a fight now.
{TA} - I can't shake the feeling that this is a trap.
{TD} - Why it would be? I havent done much damage to Kusari...well except the destruction of
sevaral Destroyers in Kuyshu...
{TA} - Still I'm very nerveous... it's very quiet...
O damn , Im picking up signal in front of us!
{TD} - Hmm , this is a Kusari BS patrol. Well I am done with the scan , I have the positions of the
major factories on New Tokyo. Let's get outta here!
{TA} - I'm picking up signals from behind...and from both sides!
{TD} - Things get better... Looks like you were right. Don't you hate it when you are right?
{TA} - Now I do hate when I'm right for once...I'll count them.
...
{Kusari Fleet Admiral} - Surrender terrorist, you are surrounded!
...
{TD} - I wonder from where they knew we will be here...I won't respond. Whats the count?
{TA} - Well things aren't pretty - i have counted 4 battleships , a dozen Destroyers ,
twice as much gunboats...and a quite impressive number of fighters.
{TD} - Hmm... This is gonna be a hard one. I can say only one thing to you ... see you on the
other side!
{TA} - You too bro! Lets get 'em!
*****
... The two fighters opened fire on the Battleroup. This caused a confusion for just a moment.
The naval forces opened fire. Only seconds were separating the two fighters from the nothingness...
And then suddenly another Battleship warped just behind the Kusari Battlegroup line. He opened fire ,
and for 30 seconds a dozen of fighters launched from him. THe Battle took an unexpected turn...
The Kusari fleet was extremely confused... this allowed the newcommers to destroy most of them...
The brothers were also surprised , but managed to mobilize and continue the fight. Torpedoes were flying
all around , guns blazing... it all continued 5 minutes... The flagship managed to escape with several fighters
and one destroyer... a crushing defeat...
*****
{TD} - Why did you helped us?
{DarkStar} - The Masters always look after their own.

...Suddenly The_Damned understood all...the information moved through his brane with a painfully rapid speed. They
have sent him the answer... The C'Tan...the mistic energy... devouring millions of souls...
chaos, destruction, massacre, smoke, ashes... An ancient weapon of the C'Tan... that is his essence... Now he knows
who are The Phantom Empire, now he knows that they are looking for him... The long lost weapon of the C'Tan...
He looked towards the cockpit of his brother's ship...he knew too...they are one... they are C'Tan creations...
