Burian Support? You're a long way from home!.. yes... well  between us and that Dig going on at the Mountain, our patrols have been  fighting  samoe Lizards..Arch tech  don't see too worried...I don't see why they aren't

Izzy would giggle as Sam spoke about her armour being child sized before adding ”Oh they made all of those jokes when I got mine on Earth, They even stuck a load of Hello Kitty stickers on it!” she said, smiling at the memory even if it had been rather embarrassing at the time.

With the Admirals arrival she would listen to his orders before carrying them out with an already done, her fingers quickly dancing across the keys as she patched herself into the correct line before sending the message ”The fleet is coming, repeat the fleet is coming” With the message sent she would wait to see if and how those on the other end would reply.

 Sam giggled and replied," Yes we are but we are here to help, thank you if you get any more reports of activity please let us now thank you and have a nice day."

  The Admiral nodded thoughtfully.  When Izzy contacted  contacted  the Voice came on.. Hellow  Heimdall...glad to see  you are still afloat!..Look...  This  is designated   Outpost 45N... don't come  down this way...the Build up is almost ready , we  just have to wait for  'the word'. once they get what they need, we'll hit them

 Hack Types  a  quick  Message on his board for Izzy to read  saying 'thanks for the warning, see you son" he    waved his  hand i the rollig motion again, for her to use her  ownideas.

 Roll shared his sandwich that Zob brought over,with  Gregor and sipped his  soda.....Them Bugs, I don't like them... They  don't care about nothing 'cept eating  and  stuff.. I saw them crawl over their  Buddies  to entry and eat some one they were  eating?..then some one shot them..that was nice...

 Stefi  walked over  with a  cup of coffee, looking out the  the hanger  dec from where Zob and  Roll were.. a  white Med tech shuttle  was   asking for clearance  and was entering..SGT, that's  your right to the planet if  it becomnes a shooting war, theyb won't suspect   re-enforcemnts  coming in  by Med tech shuttle... looks like some places  found bad  guys..

  way to the north west of the  North pole, flashes of line indicted   some one  was   shooting and blowing stuff up.

Izzy quietly listened to the response to her message with her then looking to the admiral to see how he wanted to respond. As he held out his vidboard Izzy, glad she was wearing her glasses, would read the message before giving him the “ok” sign ”Thanks for the warning, we’ll see you soon” she said in a cheery voice before ending the call.

Haley continued to help the RecDec ladies.  When it was all calm for the moment, she motioned she would go to the Lab where Can and Val were.  Moving there she waved to Roll and Gregor.

===>  Doc Christies lab

Zob glanced out over the planet and saw the lights flash up over the northern western side of the planet, "Everyone get suited up and be ready to move out in a moments notice!" he shouted before looking down to Roll, "Them bugs have been a menace for longer then i have been alive in the black if i had my way id hunt every last one of them to the brink of extinction"

After taking a couple sips of coffee he turned to Stefi who came up on his right side, "If the admiral needs us on the ground will be up that ramp and out the static field in a moments notice" he said to her before turning his attention back to Roll and the light show happening over the planet.

   Admiral Hack  had   Beth, Sam and  Izzy   ALL COM every ship  but the Heimdall.  he had Orris  keep sending the Normally transmissions.

 Attention...  Captain Nilsson has  uncovered   dim  , but massed, readings  to the South Of the  Rescue  areas.. there have been reports on firefights  around  the Globe... stand  ready... we have never locked in this planet, or E-2..so there are  outposts for  each side of this war  down there..

 When  Izzy's  COM was   done, , hack  looked out the  Statics  Field...Sam..Lock out all COMs in and Out of the Heimdall for the Moment....

Beth.. COM to Colonel Cummings.

 Aye  Sir..Already Done....  a screen flashed on...Colonel Cummings...Admiral Hack...


 dmiral Hack!..Wonderful to see you. You have  something  for me?


Yess. I want two  Transport bases to bracket the   Heimdall..one low, one  High,  Have the  Commanders of the   bases   Try to stay  out  the weapons, field of fire..I want the Heimdall Boarded ..and the entire  crew scanned  with use  of Naragrans, on the Hanger Dec... if you  find anyone with EDT or Empire.. put them  in chains  and Hold them on the Hanger dec... This inlcudes the Civis... it has become apparent , that we did  not  filter all the  disease of  that ship 

 ahh..bit of  sticky business..eh? Well.. we'll take  care of that in a few  shakes... Might i ask if  I may use security Protocol  2?

 Y9u will use  security protocol 1.....

I say!..Bad Business , then. Right..  we will be on it  in..say...15 minutes...

 Have the Commanders  announce that  over ALL COMs, right before you board... any shuttles  of fighters try to  leave Have them Hailed once  by the Provost Fighters, then shoot  them down....  no matter what happens, after  to day, the Heimdall will be a clean ship

 Right   The, Off i go...Already Done  ,Admiral...

  looking at Izzy, The Admiral says...You are now the Heimdall... you filed  any COMs  coming from  the LZ area, the rest can go to  the ship.it won't matter much at this point.

With the message delivered, Izzy would sit and listen as the next wave of instructions were delivered with it appearing that those on the Heimdall would be in for a surprise. Upon receiving her own orders Izzy would once again nod her head and accept them with an "already done" before setting up system so that it would intercept and filter any messages between the Heimdall and the planet "Would you look at that Sam, in charge of a cap ship at twenty one, Wait till Lizzy hears about this!" Izzy joked, giggling as she waited for the next stage of the plan to take place.

 Hearing the  COM from  The Storm, Hack   taps Sam,Id Yourself as us.... tell them  to send alerts  to  all fleet sections...

 Beth, Keep me informed of the  Heimdall's  boarding

 Sakuria... try and  filter  to filter  any COMs  coming up to the  Heimdall, see if any are coming  from The Black

..........

 Captain Morris    Looked at his Vidboard  as he tried to monitor  what was going on with the fighters.....some   tricky business, going on I think.

 Roll  looked at Gregor who  Thumped his tail once  or twice.I think there may be  some bad  guys  down there.

 Sam nodded to Admiral Hack and then said," Storm this is Lt. Samantha Robertson of the ESN 351 Hermes please send alerts to all fleet sections."

Zob had finished getting his gear in order for the off chance they sent him down, "I'm willing to bet good credits that this was a set up from the very beginning but if there is bad guys down there they will regret the day they tangled with us" he assured Roll.

  Sam got a return COm.....Understood Hermes..Already done...

   ...............

There  was a frown on Morris's  face when he looked up at  Zob ,I do not understand?...  They have  no fleet near the  E-1  , E-2  corridor...  Those  mercs cannot  possibly  do much harm to the Landing party.... The outposts have been there for years..and so have the
 Empire outposts, but they had  limited  engagements...what can the Hope to accomplish?

”Already done Admiral” Izzy replied replied as she applied a few more settings and started listening in to the comms chatter. The first message to come through was from a clearly concerned officer over the large ESN presence on the planet and why there was air cover ”Don’t worry about the air cover; it’s a training exercise, just Shadow and Frans putting a bunch of rookies through their paces so they get some air time, their guns aren’t even loaded!” Izzy replied in a mocking tone that she hoped whoever was on the other end would buy and either ignore the fighters or seriously underestimate them.

The second message arrived a few moments later from somewhere in the Black, asking where the target ships were ”Admiral I’ve got someone asking where the target ships are what do you want me to tell them?” she asked figuring she’d best let the admiral decide if he wanted to spring an ambush or simply send them the wrong way.

Zob shrugged his shoulders, "Obviously something big if they needed the might of the fleet to pull out a handful of people, if i have learned anything while being among you humans its not to underestimate the opponent there is something else at play here" maybe Zob was overthinking it but to him something felt wrong.

  Hack    took off his head  gear  and looked out through the the  static  field , almost a Half mile from where they stood,

  tell them.....  he rubbed his jaw  as  Hennings  looked up concerned.Tell them  , 'they are in standard forcmation, you cnnot  use long COMs...tell them to Ping the targets.....

 Speaking into his COMs,Nil?  Have Holly and Lilly  lookign for  ships to be  pinged, from deep space, or even the planet...

 then he looked at the  4   COM techs   before him,.. The Pings  will  barely register...but if we're looking, we  may find out who they are targeting...be ready...

 Sam heard it loud and clear becasue she was listening for it, she then replied to everyone in the warroom," Sir the Hermes has been pinged."

    do we have a Ball park? I know its  just a Ping...but  anything helps..

 Captain Si  called  down...Neither Holly or  Lilly  caught a Ping...

 beth   shook her head...Nothing.....

 Orria  spoke up....I had a noise  from the planet... it is close to  the landing place.

 Sam replied to Admiral Hack," It was from deep space Sir that is all I can tell you. I will try and see what else I can find out."

  Beth  , Tell Delta  3 and Delta 4  to widen thier  wings, but make sure  each ship is  covered by another

  Sam?   COM Captain Bornberry, tell her to watch  for surface attacks from her sections

 Sakura? Contact  Colonel Cummings   for an Update on the heimdall.

 The he looks a bit  Thoughtful, but  shrugs as  he says...Orria. make sure you have a  good  secure Link to  The SM and his people

 Sam replied," Already done Sir."   Sam gets Captain Bornberry on the comms and tells her to watch for surface attacks from her section.

 Bronberry COMed,..Thank You Hermes..i will have  my assault  troops   cued  up and
 ready. I will  have  My ships  go on red Alert...

 beth Jumped   back as he  screens Light  up....Gods be damned!  Look!.. all around the  LZ  and  then  all around the  planet..were massive   concentrations of enemy sigs.


  Hack  swore  as he said.....LC!..i don't care who those fighters belong to, Knock them down, we'll settle things later if   we 'over  reacted'

 Already Done  Admiral,  way ahead of you!.

 Sam was getting reports from the fleet, Sam said to the Warroom," Sirs there are reports that enemy ships are popping up all around the twin planets, they were laying in the dark for us this seems to be a huge trap, and a big ambush Sirs."
