Chapter 1 “The greatest honor comes from living with others in peace.” Loki, Supreme Command of the TNG Third force “Status report” – Commander Birdington “All stations are reporting every thing quite. Ore production is at 100%. Estimated completion of the gas well is 4 hours.” – Luietanat Commander Overton “Very well. Have our security forces begin a training exercise. We will simulate an attack with 7 armored mechs, 50 marines, and orbital bombardment.” – Commander Birdington “Sir, with all due respect, no one has in the past two hundred years has dared attack the Norse Empire.” – Luietanat Commander Overton “And the reason for that is because we train our warriors to fight. If we ever apear to be weak then we become a target. And since this outpost was just established, we apear to be extremely weak. I want anyone and everyone who is watching to think otherwise. Now, begin the drill.” – Commander Birdington “Yes, sir” – Luietanat Commander Overton “I will be in my ready room. Notify me when the drill is complete.” – Commander Birdington “Yes, sir” – FO 2 hours later “Commander Overton, I detecting a large object entering the solar system.” – Ensign one “Elaborate on object ensign.” – LC Overton “Well sir, approxiamate mass two million tons.” – Ensign one “What else can you tell about.” – LC Overton “Nothing. We can’t get any other readings. Other than its going to be here in ten minutes” – Ensign One “Overton to Command Birdington. We have a situ…” – LC Overton “Its gone. We just lost the object from our sensors.” – Ensign One “What' How can you lose a 2 million ton object'” – LC Overton “Overton, whats going on'” – Commander Birdington “Nothing sir, it seems we have a sensor malfunction. The scopes were reporting a two million object entering our system but it has disappeared” – LC Overton “What' Red Alert! Ready the mechs, scramble the air support. But the lunar base on full support.” – Commander Birdington “Sir'” – LC Overton “DO IT NOW!” Commander Birdington Commander Birdington enters the CnC. “How long until it enters orbit'” – Command Birdington “From last know position and speed. Eight minutes.” – Ensign One “Sir, it prolly just a glitch in the system. A shadow image or something.” – LC Overton “Shadows don’t have masses luteniant. IF you don’t stop second guessing and questioning my orders I will have you removed to the brige.” – Commander Birdington “Sir, while we are at the level of highten security we are unable to collect ore or continue drilling the well. Every second we waste, we lose million of credits. The senate will not tolerate that and I for one don’t want them having a taste of my ass.” – LC Overton “I understand that, but we don’t have any supply ships or military transports scheduled. Secondly, I just received intel from home about a new faction forming. Evidently the information is a little out of date.” – Commander Birdington “Or maybe not. I believe you are over reacting. I will not stand for this!” – LC Overton “Fine, as of this moment you are relieved of duty and sentenced to the brige. Sergent, remove Luitenant Commander Overton from CnC.” – Commander Birdington “Sir, yes sir. LC Overton, make this easy.” – Sergent One Sergent removes LC Overton. LC Overton is indignant towards Commander Birdington.
