Brank (playing it risky i see) Station reports come in of unidentified ships in the area. A basic hail stating they have entered UEG territory above the planet Viterra and are begining to enter a military patroled area

Brank

ONI The ship Quickly Opens a Slipspace portal and zips through. Soon after, a Much larger portal opens up a decent distance from the planet, roughly 270,000 KM Away (slightly less than the distance from the earth to the moon.) And A small Fleet comes through, Covered in a Dark Purplish Colored Metallic Substance.

ONI

Brank The all familiar hull shapes, bulbous whales with a somewhat elegant grace. With the defence fleet taking poition, communications between the fleet say "Covenant?" Maybe this time will be differe nt?" Another hail is sent, but this time telling them to keep a distance from Viterra. Diplomacy can be arranged, but it will have to be somewhere else where a supposed meeting can take place

Brank

ONI The Fleets sends a hail asking for co-ordinates to a meeting place, suggesting one of their smaller ships meeting with one of their ships halfway

ONI

Brank Cords are sent, but diplomats are guarded by the most advanced and capable soldiers in the UEG which are [REDACTED]

A diplomatic cruiser and some escorts are sent to the cordinates of X4637 Y192474 Z9932958 along with a message detailing them to this new group

Brank

ONI One of the The 5 Spear Shaped ships begins moving to the co-ords, escorted by 4 Of the Vulcan Fighters. Once the Ship arrives, it sends out a Phantom class Dropship/Gunship, that requests to dock in the UNSC ship's Hangar

ONI

Brank Blast doors open for the dropship. In the hangar the ships local marine compliment stand on guard weapons poised at the drop ship. They dont want another incident like the old colony of Harvest which was completely annihilated by the Covenant, nothing left but dust and ehcos.

in the ships main officers room the diplomats await, with 6 large figures with gold polarized visors, they seem like old Greek warriors or robotic in nature, not moving a muscle. The name of them are [REDACTED]

Each of them carry a somewhat of a large pistol mounted on the thigh and 4 either an AR , or DMR on thier backs. The remaining have 2 large shotguns

Brank

ONI Out of the Ship walks 6 Uk'ruea Grunts, armed with Plasma Rifles and pistols, 3 Sek'hie Marksmen armed With Carbines and Pulse Rifles, 2 Sek'hie Grunts Armed with Gauntlet Shields and Plasma Rifles, and 1 Syen'hae Captain, With Powerful Energy Shields, and A Scatter Rifle. These Soldiers accompany Shipmaster Al'yakiv, an Uk'ruae, Wearing A Red and Gold Body armor with Energy Shields, and a Small Plasma Projector along his wrist, able to create a small Blade made of superheated plasma, and a Hand-Crafted Plasma Pistol, with the Words "Ka'thrill Do'raed" Engraved on it.

ONI

Brank The marines stare, weapons poised until an officer approaches the alien group. "Weapons down men, we dont want a repeat of Harvest and another 30.l year war". He slowley walks over to the aliens, trying to show no fear but inside he was scared shitless, like needing your mother to tuck you in at night scared. "Welcome..." he pauses struggling to not say the slurs hummanity created for these creatures "hinge head", "split lips". Instead he goes with "whatshall i address you with?".

Brank

ONI
The Shipmaster speaks in the classic Unggoy voice, but has a strrange aura of Power around it.
"I Am Shipmaster Al'Yakiv of the "Righteous Justice", but you may call me Yak'. We are here on diplomatic matters. your faction has been discovered recently, and we come on peaceful terms. We visit newly discovered factions to learn about them, study their culture and their society, and to see whether they are Friend, or Foe. That decision, is yours to make, friends." He offers his hand, presumably to for the officer to shake.

ONI

Brank The officer becomes paralysed even dumbstruck on the spot. He says to the ship master "does genocidal war your people started, the billions dead mean anything, you didnt just discover us? Do you not remeber any of it?

Brank

ONI “Genocide? Excuse me, but who are you to accuse our proud civilization of genocide. We have been hunted for decades, fighting a never ending war against The Venata, our people dying, and you accuse us of genocide, either you are mistaking us for someone else, or you are trying to get youselves killed.”

ONI

Brank The officer blanks,"lets... just go take you to the diplomats. What ever this is they can sort it out"

Brank

ONI “... Very well..”
he follows the officer, the soldiers do as well. Though after what was said, they look slightly irritated, as if someone just insulted them and spat in their face.

ONI

Brank The humans cast edgy gazes as they pass these aliens. They arrive at the room with the dipolomats. The moment the party wnters the room you see the [REDACTED] tense up, but stay staring at the aliens not moving.

The diplomats turn a light white as they get up to.greet the ship master

Brank

ONI As they enter the room, one of the Marksmen look at the Mysterious Soldiers in awe, staring at the beautifully made armor, as if it had never seen something like it before. The shipmaster sits, and the Captain stands behind him. None of the Aliens have their weapons drawn, but many of them are tensed up, ready to quickly draw if anything goes wrong.
”Hello, I am Shipmaster Al’Yakiv of the Covenant.”

ONI

Brank The diplomats say, "Covenant? They were defeated long ago and broke apart due to something they called the great schism...How can you be back after your 3 prophets were killed? And the elites breaking off?"

Brank

ONI “We have no Idea what you are talking about, who are the elites, and our prophets are not dead, and we have more than 3. What is the great schism. I think you have us mixed with someone else. With how many civilizations we haven’t discovered yet, i am not surprised if someone was also a covenant, or looked alike us. It may have been one of the fleets of ships lost during the great journey, where we left our old home in search of a better home, and escape from the Great Destroyers. It is not unlikely they forgot their history, and evolved into different cultures from ours, but it surely was not us..”

The F.I Iola and the UNSC Into Happiness returned to UNSC space.

Captain Wilvert looking at the logs: It would seem that the expedition has gone smoothly. We have found a few resource rich planets.
Dr. Aldreas standing right next to the captain: Yes and thanks to the efforts of...

(Dr. Aldreas' Face)
...UNSC Into Happiness...
Dr.Aldreas shivered when he said the name.
Captain Wilvert looks at the Dr.: Yup, your making that face again.
Dr. Aldreas returned from his moment: What I said a couple weeks back "UNSC names are...Interesting"
Captain Wilvert returning to his chair: Yeah right.
Wilvert then looks at his screen radar screen: Hmm looks like that ship is heading back to base. I believe that I already sent a report to that ship to the UNSC of our findings. Oh and I forgot to report it to the UFI. Whoops.
Dr. Aldreas: Mhm.

ONI

Brank "well...then, so your...this will be a hard one to explain, anyway what do you want here, diplomacy wise?"

ONI

Jackyboy54 The Into Happiness, slows down above the orbital elevator Nunavut (Located in the Canadian north) to drop off researchers and transmit data to the surface.

Brank

ONI “We wish, merely for your word. Do not attack us, and do not betray is. We merely wish to learn. There are many dangers in the universe. We hope you are not one of them, for if you are, justice is swift, and so are our blades. So all we ask os for your word, and your trust. Your word that you will not be an obstacle we must pass, a hurdle we must overcome, or a problem we must fix. That is what we want.”
