Re: ETNA 1003 #2
Admiral Richards ran the show, there was no doubt about that, recognizing people to speak, asking for those who wished input. Then the tension Grew as she announced...
I personally contacted each and every member of the Voting Representatives, that were not 'Delta Fleet'... to make sure the votes they turned in, were no out of fear, but out of choice. They all concluded , that their Votes were their own....Having said this, The ruling of the APF...which Includes the delta Fleet as a Member, and all areas under thier authority , have ruled, unanimously , to bar The Paradise System from entering into The APF, until such time that they Prove trustworthy The Skith send their Vote by secure COM Vid and Text....
The hall erupted in cheers, while the Paradise system protested in anger... ZU-IS stood, shouting,were are one of the oldest Races in The Black, How dare ..ANY of you deny us entry into the APF.
Admiral Hack stood up, even through people shouting back and forth.You Cowered in your won system, fed your own people to the Empire, and sacrificed the red and Blue Moons as a Buffet for the Empire.... to add to that? We..The ESN and that includes the APF ships under my command, had to liberate the Moons, and Thus liberate the System, after you took the chance to stick your noses out of your hidey hole!
YOU...you should have say in this matter...with out the Angels, you would be nothing m,ore the Gava with tech!
Hack snapped back,..you gave us weapons and training to fight a war, you were too scared to fight!...And Comparing us to Gava? I should think that is an Honor. The Gava have show increased abilities to grow, rapidly in the Universal community . and they were even permitted a Vote with Aqra being recognized as their region of vote...I have never seen a Gava forsake and Allie... I have never seen a Gava flee from a fight, nor have i seen a Gava give up their own...so, To the Ambassadors here who represent the Gava... I want it known, that ZU-IS may have tried to insult Humans...but instead, praised us more then we are worthy!...
The Two Gava raised thier heads Proudly.
Hack Pointed at General Ben-Kali...We, as Humans, are not as noble as the Gava, as we have people, who not only have sold out our people, but have taken part in Loyalty feasts!
angry shouts echoed back and forth, the general stood up shouting at Hack, the Paradise Group stood as one shouting back and forth.
There was a a Harsh Blare , as Admiral Richards used an airhorn into her Mic...This meeting we try to resemble what it is to be...or it ends now, with the votes in place as they are...
you cannot assume that those who work with the Empire have taken part in those feasts!...
Hack nodded to beth, the screens lit up, The Admiral walked to the screens...scenes from Delta Nights, that have made thier way to the New nets, showed various feasts, with children, while Empire folks, Humans and other species took part...
the Sol System vids from The New York, where, perhaps, the worst of the lot, with the Captain 'preparing' the dinner, while two other kids were locked in a box waiting their turn.
The APF people howled in anger...I will not lie, to any one here...friend or foe... My people.... The same people who ride 'the Tip Of The Spear' into battle, have stooped many of these feasts.... They have saved the two children in the box... it is easy to understand that the poor child on the table, did not survive..Now? Its not all Humans , we have gunned down Angels, Sanri, Occui, as well as every race in the Empire, at these..feasts...many times with an Empire Official, over watching, to make sure they see who took part...
Pointing to The LC, Hack said, LC Shadow, had a novel way of dealing with this, when he made the Command officers we captured from the '9th planet'...have such a 'meal' with the Wing Commander of the Sol System Fleet there.... The ending was not near as happy from those who took part in the meal, as they all were made to walk home, after the Wing Commander butchered by them..
The vids showed the ordeal.
ZU-IS pointed at Shadow......you enjoyed that...
LC shrugged, I did..I loved it!..it was my idea! I mean, they did this to poor little kids who didn't even get to have homes, or were taken from their families..i thought it was damn hilarious to see that son of a bitch screaming as his own people cut slices off and at him. while they stood there naked....Its my opinion, that you treat the evil folks as badly as they treat others, because , when you try to 'be nice'...too many people die...so you deal out harsh justice, until the bad guys come around to our way of thinking.
Ben-_Kali shouted..Like Maris.....
Shadow smiled....all three of them.
More shouts from the Paradise system... more shouts from the APF , shouting back at them.
Hack Nodded to Captain Si...Captain Si turned to Roy......you are to say something...you say what ever you wish... The Paradise people were getting whipped into a frenzy, that is what Oliver wants...but..you speak your Mind as you will...
