ZendikaroftheWest "We didn't expect someone to come at all, but with so much help? We are very thankful, but I fear we cant waste time chatting. Get ready and in battle position as soon as possible."

    Hannizio
    "Got it, any place you want us to guard specifically?"

      ZendikaroftheWest "Wherever you think it is the best. The capital has to stay safe, but we already have something on its way to do that."

      Hannizio

      "Rodger that. We have out own supply lines as of current."

      The Fleet begins to move, finding a way to patch up the defenses by moving ships and artillery around to holes in the defense network.

        A bright blink can be seen on the horizon, only a few hundreds of kilometers away from the planet. What might seem like the first wave of enemies attacking, turns out to be a giant starbase. It wields lots of experimental weapons, but has light armor for a construct of its size. A dozen cruisers fly towards it to bring it safely closer.
        The minister of defense proudly states to all who arrived: "As you can see, we have brought our finest piece of equipment. This station, 7 kilometers in diameter, was designed to test new weapons, but we were able to equip it with a hyperdrive, being capable enough to transfer a station of this size. With war machinery like this, we can't lose. It relies on an engine specially deigned to hold it above a planet for a long time, without needing much speed to stay in orbit. It will stop every enemy from even trying to break the lines. It has many weapons, of various kinds, but they aren't optimized for battlefield use yet."
        The station starts to hover nearly over the capital, staying close above the atmosphere

        Hannizio
        "Of course. We will, however, give you the twelve battlecruisers, for use as you see fit. Note however, that they are fast enough that they can keep pace with frigates and destroyers, and should be used accordingly."
        The mentioned ships move toward the main group of HDC ships, while the rest of the fleet moves into position. About half of the destroyers are positioned as a early warning screen (About 100km out from the HDC fleet above the capital), the defence carriers are about 1km out from the fleet, ventral lasers turned outward from the planet. The rest of the fleet splits into two parts .(even split, one getting one more carrier, the other getting one more battleship) The command battleship Chronos moves above the capital, making it's stand there.

          The faster ships are ordered to stay in cover of the starbase until the first salvos are fired

            Hannizio
            "Also, could we organise a conference for the defenders? We need a strategy if we are going to defeat these aliens."

              ZendikaroftheWest
              "Indeed, that would be wise. I would rather coordinate in person, since the attackers know which frequencies we normally use. We will meet in the presidentially palace. Here are the coordinates."

              Hannizio
              //Transmission: Local Code//
              "Agreed. Ve vill send down a shuttle to zhe planet to meet up vith you in zhe palace."

              A singular shuttle is dispatched shortly after, racing down to the planet, breaking through the atmosphere and passing over the cities with a screaming sound of the motors. As it touches down, its doors open, forming a ramp, from which several men and women embark, at first glance they look completely normal if a tad bit more muscular, until one gets closer to the shuttle... The officers dwarf normal humans, all of them standing between around 2.6-2-8 metres tall.

                boombox
                The minister of defense is visible impressed by the size of those humans.
                "You aren't some sort of aliens, are you?"
                He asks in a voice that sounds nearly threatening

                  Hannizio

                  As the ten men and women step down the landing ramp, their heavy march can be heard, they stop shortly before the minister of defense, one man standing slightly in front of the others, flanked by two other men, the rest seem to be an armoured guard.

                  The man in the front looks to be about 50 years old, is clean shaven with a large scar across his right chin. On his right stands an older man, with a white sailor's beard and an eye patch, and on his left a young woman, looking to be about 30 or so, standing at attention straight as a die. The three bear the insignias marking the former man as an admiral and the other two as captains.

                  The admiral looks to the prime minister, and begins speaking, his voice is louder and deeper than expected, even though he is speaking calmly.

                  "Nein, Ve are not aliens, our ...genome of humanity stems directly from earth, from vhich ve vere forced to leave a very long time ago. To better adapt to zhe harshness of zhis galaxy and help humanity thrive and exterminate zhe xeno threat ve used biological upgrading to strengthen our bodies."

                  Extending his hand for a handshake he nods slightly.
                  "Admiral Paul Richter, accompanied by Kapitän Ulrich von Plauzhausen und Kapitänin Sarah von Richthofen, from zhe German Space Regime.
                  ...
                  It is our duty and our right as humanity to exterminate zhe xenos and rule zhe stars. Ve will be of service defending your world."

                  The guard soldiers salute sharply as he speaks the last words.

                  "Understood, Shuttle En-route"

                  Shooting from the belly of the IDS Valorous comes a grey shuttle with the signature mark of the ID planted upon it's side. The shuttle flies down and down through the burning atmosphere as it passes through the skyline of the capital and down to the presidential palace, setting down upon it's landing legs it's doors whirr open as a ramp begins to unfold from the underside of the ship, setting down and making way for a group of humans, dressed in the grey and red dress uniforms of the ID, and accompanied by a single alien creature in non-combatant dress-whites. The group steps forward and one in particular stands at the front in the dress uniform of a captain. He and the others, aside from the noncombatant alien, march forward, while the avian alien simply walks forward. Arriving afront the minister, They stop.

                  "Greetings, Minister of Defense, and a greetings as well to our german friends. I am Captain Crilo of the IDS Valorous, and acting commander of Shield Fleet."

                  The avian walks up to his right and speaks as well.
                  "My name is Isaiah Xlith, the dedicated diplomat stationed with Shield Fleet"

                  boombox
                  "I like this rather interesting. You have to show us your way of genetic modification once we won. If you would be so kind to follow me in."
                  The minister goes into the building, and after a short corridor, leads everyone into a big and beautiful hall. The Bigger humans have to duck to not hit the ceiling with their head, but once in the hall, even they can stand upwards. The ceiling is a few meters above the ground. The incoming storm can be barely witnessed through the windows. The temperature is warm, plants stand next to some pillars. The architecture of the room was inspired by multiple designs from the human past. Its general look could be described as if in an old theater for the upper class

                  Brank
                  The words "What the hell are you?", slip through the ministers lips, with tone of disgust, before he could keep himself together and says "Follow me."
                  While everyone passes through into the hall, the minister stays at the door, asking one of the humans passing "This thing has to be joking. We would accept animals like this as our slaves maybe, but as a diplomat?"

                  Hannizio
                  Captain Crilo replies with a simple "The natives of the galaxy are more friendly to mongrels of their own kind. Our government is too kind to them, in my opinion. But if we are to have them within our borders, they may as well be put to work, as slaves are outlawed."

                  Brank
                  "An interesting view on things. We are ready to accept it, at least I am. I suggest to keep it from public spaces and out of the sight of any other human here. I can offer to get a long coat with hood to hide its discussing face"

                  Hannizio
                  Ducking through the archways, the Germans make their way through the hallway to the hall, some stretching themselves as they are able to stand upright again.
                  Looking around, Admiral Richter nods slightly, appreciating the architecture. He then takes out a short cigar and lights it while following the minister of defense, hardly able to withhold a smile as he passes the minister suggesting a long cloak for the xenos. Bowing slightly down to him he whispers:
                  "Better fitting zhan a cloak vould be a prison uniform, but oh vell, vhat can you do."

                  Hannizio
                  A shuttle heads down to the coordinates and lands. Out steps five people. The first is a Zaltzi Fleet Admiral, the next is a Gamilas Admiral, and the last three are Zaltzi staff.
                  "Hello, we are here for the conference. My name is Fleet Admiral Kiani."

                  ZendikaroftheWest
                  the minister mumbles, more to himself than to others: "not more of them..."
                  The next second he puts on a forced smile and welcomes the new guests.
                  Just as the others before, he offers the obvious alien something to hide his face and skin, while bringing them into the hall
