Bleary eyed maximus growled out , This better be, Real important! sitting up and climbing out of his rack. he punched the flashing button . blissfully the flashing light stopped and the buzzing ended with it. Looking over at the chrono, it showed 0200. Real important! Yes? What is it? Sir an YEO message is waiting for you. It just arrived from ambassador Procaimous. very well forward it to my cabin . And wake the exec, have him report to the bridge. Maximus punched in his private command code into the console. and the YEO report began to scroll . Ah , Hm, yes, yes Where?? Ensign! grab me a cup of, no make it cafre of calisun! , extra strong! Shrugging, he quickly dressed, in his duty uniform of the previous shift. :note: to self replace my steward! At last the information they had traveled clear from Lyran space for was in his hands! Now the question was what did it mean? And how were they going to get to those co-ordinates?

Sipping the calisun, Maximus sat back,put the cup down, and sighed. One thing for sure, he wasn't going to get through the whole document tonight. but a quick study of the Co-ordinates,given in it. Were too say the least interesting. Reaching some of them will be hard. Most of them are in space, that will probably be controlled, or at least patrolled by other nations. The 2215 location is the most interesting. The Vorlon nebula! Site of the final battle. It has been banned by treaty for any race to reenter. Since the destruction of the shadows. Now, um now we will see how well the treaty holds. The ancient weapon, must be a hoax. Even that putz,Sheridan couldn't have been stupid enough to give it away to every nation!! It has to be a hoax. Ah but if it wasn't the empire has to acquire the technology. "Arms races, never end, they just keep getting longer" Now it is time to get Warchilds point of view. The Fleet s arrival had been keeping him busy. We need to have a face to face meeting. It is time to transfer my flag to a new ship. And to assign him his flagship as well. The fleet is impressive. Larger than anticipated .Seems the Empire wants to send a message. to the other nations.

Well thats one problem resolved, no minefield to worry about. Now all we have to do is get a ship there to see what is going on. Possibly the other nations will agree to allow, each of us to explore there for ourselves. But that seems doubtful. With these new hyper-engines. at least we can reach there. The questions are. who else will be there . How many will show up at the same time? If we are able to reach it, and enter it. what will we find? "note to self" find out if the Cloak works in that Vorlon nebula! Now where is Warchild!?? he sent word that he would join me ,over an hour ago! With all that is unfolding i need to make sure we are on the same page. Don't want him blowing up every ship he sees! As much as he may want to! After all Proclaimous hinted in last report that there deals being made on the B5 station all ready. Who can tell what secret alliances are being forged. If memory serves me right. there was an "unholy" alliance between the Centari's and the Narns, during the last war . If they can set aside their differences, well.... Who knows?.... who knows? Maybe even the Da Frog will sit down with the E.A.

Yes you heard me correctly. Now get a move on it Lt, or should i make that sub-Lt? The Lt scurried out of sight, making good his escape from the Sub-Praetor office. Whew that was close, he had heard about Maximus's famous ill temper. But till now had never witnessed it. May the gods save him ever going through that again! But now he had his hide to and career to save. running down the passage to the inter-ship transporter. tube. He made up a mental list. #1 Never ever tell the Sub-Praetor that something could not be done in the time he gives you to do it! #2 Find and Get admiral Warchild to his office , Yesterday! #3 Find the Praetors personnel aide, Have him report immediately to Maximus. Maximus could barely hide his grin as the young LT rushed out of his office. Ahh, i still can light up the [glow=red,2,300]Glower[/glow] when i need too ;D. But at least i know the admiral will be reporting in umm about..... just then the message light flashed on. calmly looking at the source codex he recognized his Admirals index code. reaching out he switched to the remote mike. Yes? oh it's you admiral. I thought maybe you froze to death , Perhaps the " ice maker" i gifted you with had malfunctioned. No, good then, if it suits you, would you be ever so kind to. [glow=red,2,300]HAUL YOUR BUTT[/glow] over here Remember that meeting we discussed. Yes that one! Unless of course you prefer that I assign you to the fleet garbage scow!

Yes admiral ? is there something you were going to say? Maximus held his stare straight into Warchilds eyes. No? Good, I guess we will move onto the matter of the rest of the fleets disposition. Now that you know where to place your flag. Maximus took the opportunity to look down at the control console on his desk. and rubbing his chin. hiding the smirk of satisfaction he felt. Let him stew for a bit he thought. The command he assigned Warchild to hardly befit the rank of Fleet Admiral. But still the lesson had to be clear, for all to see. Just who ran the show. The tardiness of Warchilds response to his commanders summons. Could not be , would not be , tolerated. Discipline was always of the utmost importance. Now ,Warchild knew just where he stood, He had found out. That which Maximus wanted is what he got! He Wasn't happy, everyone knew. Which ship he had, had his eye on for his flagship. Now everyone would see that he did not get it. It would mean slapping down anybody who thought. They could take advantage of his leaders, displeasure, to maybe replace him. Maximus could see the anger and the realizations running through Warchild mind. The knowledge of how this would play out with the other flag officers ambitions. They would be vying to out do each other. In hopes of replacing him. All the better, everyone would be sure to be at the top of their game. just what i need right now thought Maximus. Lots of good old fashioned ambitious, greed !!! I need the entire fleet to be at their best now. The hunt was afoot. The Esquall was running! And only sharpest rider would win the trophy head. the EA had fired the starters pistol. When they released the packets to all the nations at the same time. Now he had to make sure the Romulan Empire. Stood upon the high ground at the end . Long live the empire!

That's all, and make sure Warchild gets a copy of those orders. Yes, Sir, right away, sir. the aide hurried out of Maximus's cabin. This is it then, thought Maximus. The planning, the hopes , the future. All of it would recorded in the histories. as being started today. What could i have done better? What will the other nations do? Only the future can tell. One thing for certain. It was time for a cup of calisun. very dark very very strong. Maximus rose and headed for the bridge, He would not know the dispositions of the other nations. Not for some time. But he wished to see for himself. Just which ship captains, carried his orders out the quickest.for now however. He would be watching his fleets actions. The feeling of hope, and pride swelled within him. It was always the anticipation that was the worst. Now that the orders were sent. He could relax . The crew would look to him. The imagine of the leader, relaxed and confident. Perhaps as important as any training they had received. It is going to a tense first few days till the reports flow back from the front. Maximus entered the transporter pad. A second latter he stepped off the pad onto his bridge. Hearing the Snap of boots clicking together, and the cry of ATTENTION! Commander on deck. Moving at a casual pace he rounded the command section. And eased himself into his chair, waving his hand , he gave the command . Take'r out captain. Lets get this ball rolling!

Maximus, handed the orders of transfer to his aide. Who quickly left and headed to the comm station, Sneaking a peek , at the orders, He knew full well what they were but .... "To Fleet admiral, Warchild. You are hereby ordered to transfer your Flag to .RIS-Myoko. congratulations. Maximus sat back and stretching his legs out. sighed. Well so far so good. He glanced at the message from Proclaimus. It seems the EA were throwing their weight around again. Declaring war on who ever fired on another race first! As if they had the right to be the high judge and lords of the universe. How could they know just who fired the first shot? Every side would claim it was the other guy!! All the better, i guess. After all if the EA wants to play policeman of the galaxy let them. All it would do is weaken them. "Fools rush in."... On the bright side, the initial orders were acted on with dispatch by all ships. Well all except the Sihio, That, commander could get lost in a closet! but the Tal'Shair, report noted his XO had caught the navigation err in time. And the ship was still on course. The rumor of pirates operating in the area still has not been confirmed. I wish the Tal'Shair would work a little harder on that, than looking over every captains shoulder.

Battles are public and therefor the record of who shots first can be known.
Peace through War!
PS Ho Chi and myself are requesting that the first battle of the campaign be filmed so that we may know who we are at war with. I believe that is a legal request,.. no?
