((Don't know if that is considered "fixed" to me, but I'll roll with it.))

/Transmission Start/
On the viewscreen of the freighter, the Doctor sees what seems to be an avatar - a holographic entity that must resemble the Overseer in some way. It has a cube head with a glowing line across where the eye level should be, and reflective, bulky shoulderpads. He could not see the bottom half of the Avatar, though.

"Permission denied. With all due respect, this is a military base, and we see you are carrying dangerous contagions on that freighter - almost as if preparing for a biological assault. Whereas the staff aboard the station are synthetic and immune to biological effects, there are some diseases known to... 'adapt' against androids and similar machinations. For security reasons we can not let you near the station."

Staring directly at the Avatar seems to induce a headache - but the symptoms are not severe, at least not with his equipment. The already-thin glowing line goes thinner.

"Something indicates to me that you are not going to leave without resistance. High likelihood of this being true..."

RandomCommander
Oh, no. I was just here to visit. And maybe sell you some cures to dangerous diseases....?

RandomCommander Don't know if that is considered "fixed" to me, but I'll roll with it.

(Yeah, messed up and forgot to press the check mark, lol.)

The "Eye-Line" of the Overseer splits in half, one segment remaining in place while the other slightly raises above its counterpart - forming a quizzical look.

"That may be a benign intention, but I'd rather you speak to the Overseer at Gateway One. They will be more interested in your cures, so I will tell them to expect you. STAY SAFE AND SECURE."

/Transmission End/

Weapons and Shields are still online, but the tractor beam does deactivate, freeing the freighter's movement capabilities. The target-locks do not go away, however.

((These guys take security very seriously. It's part of their programming!))

im sad, i never got responded too,,,,..>......

RandomCommander

ShakeshaBererund I honestly don't know how to proceed, so should I just let the poor guy go?

The Lords have taken notice of your actions...

A wormhole opens is the system the base in. almost immediatly few(6) small ships fly out of it.

The ships are heading to the star. Looks like they are not interested in the station.

RandomCommander

Al1ce Effervescent-Blade does nothing, but Zero-Quad, the Overseer's second, sends a squad of (4) Heavy Scouts to investigate from a far distance:

The wormhole behind the ships stays opened
As the ships reach the star, they start orbiting around it, collecting information. They are not paying any attention to Heavy Scouts

RandomCommander hahaha just do whatever you want, i wanna get this lore started xD

[Zero-Quad] "I BELIEVE WE SHOULD ADDRESS SOME OF THE EVENTS GOING ON HERE, OVERSEER."
[Effervescent-Blade] "Indeed. HAS COBRA-COMPOSITE INITIATED CONVERSATION WITH THE SOLDIER, YET?"
[Zero-Quad] "HE IS STARTING NOW."
[Effervescent-Blade] "IS CONSTABLE-UNKNOWN DONE WITH THE TECHNOCRATIC HERATICS YET?"
[Zero-Quad] "HE IS UNDERGOING DECONTAMINATION PROTOCOL NOW."
[Effervescent-Blade] "AND WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON DOING WITH THE NEW ARRIVALS TO THIS SECTOR?"
[Zero-Quad] "I AM VERY SUSPICIOUS AS TO THEIR INTENTIONS FOR THAT STAR - THERE IS A TTE COLONY RELYING
ON THAT STAR FOR POWER, AND IF THOSE CRYSTALLINE FORCES ARE GOING TO DO WHAT I SPECULATE THEY ARE GOING
TO DO, THEN I HAVE TO DEFEND THE STAR."
[Effervescent-Blade] "Interesting... I wish to maintain my neutral stance with these interesting crystal
beings, but should you be correct and they pose an indirect threat to that colony - I will assist you."
[Zero-Quad] "VERY STRATEGIC OF YOU, CLASS-HEAD."

A sort of holographic entity appears in the room - a glowing yellow humanoid which looks like something out of cyberspace - angular body structure and a point hovering over the floor instead of actual legs. This entity seems to have two low-detail arms and a cubic head with three glowing dots - assumed to be eyes. It's body is literally just two boxes in a large T shape.

"Forgive me for the lack of information" it said, arms raised to show no weapons or harmful intentions. "As this is a Military installation, I had to talk with the overseer to decide what information to give and what not to give."

Al1ce

The Heavy Scouts can only follow the Crystal scouts so far, Zero-Quad sends a Control Ship to maintain connection with the droneships.

With the Control Ship added to the squad, the Assault-Class ships continue to approach the other ships.

RandomCommander

Fortress Alpha has been contacted with the sudden loss of contact with Boundless-Vertex. They are now going through the process of finding a new second. Counter-Lambda has been promoted to be the new assigned Explorer-Class Core-AI to the station.

RandomCommander Soldier "Forgive me your highness, but I must inform you that i need to contact my native realm... Ill need tech outside of your grasp, but I can augment what you currently have. Permission to procede, My Lord? I am fully aware that this is a military installation. This is the station my unit is to protect. Is there any info on the attacker?"

Al1ce

RandomCommander Your ships detect 7 more signatures.
New ships come out of the wormhole. Those ships are also heading to the star.
After that, the wormhole disappears

ShakeshaBererund "It seems as though they were trying to get information on us... Judging us for what we are. We recognize they are using some sort of cloaking technology, but we don't seem to be able to penetrate it. This station is modular and therefore easily upgradable for any necessary equipment for a given task. I will let the Overseer know of your inten--"

"PERMISSION GRANTED." The overpowering voice seems to be transmitted via some sort of intercom, but there is no visible device that is capable of such a feat in this room. Perhaps it was intricately built-in to the room.

"KNOWING THAT THE 'VIRAL' FACTION YOU WERE COMBATTING IS POWERFUL IN ITS OWN RIGHT, WE NEED ANY ADVANTAGE WE COULD GET. THIS STATION HAS ONLY RECENTLY ENTERED THIS REALM, IT HAS MUCH ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT."

ShakeshaBererund

RandomCommander "Good, I need every trans-light source of Alpha-neutron particles.... Got any of those?
The soldier pulls out a seemingly never-ending supply of small energy wafers. Upon their introduction into the current universe, they start forming parts. "Please, time is of the essence. My name, if you would call it that, is
X-Cloak...."

RandomCommander

ShakeshaBererund "Trans-light... Trans-light... The Explorer-Class Vessels are pretty heavy in Alpha-Flourite, but it is hard to contain outside of their hulls. I can give you access to the stocks of a Subcore, but it is more Light than trans-light."

The figure produces a sort of elipsoid, glowing brighter than its own glow. It seems to be self-contained and accessible.

((tfw you only have a tiny idea of what the hell you are talking about))

ShakeshaBererund

RandomCommander "I'll make do... Please notify all organic life forms you can that things are going to get hectic... But use coded comms." An energy pulse, large and perfectly deadly, radiates 40000000000 light years in circumference. IT then collapses, then explodes in pure energy, creating a small universe in the cell, constantly expanding. Life appears, wars happen, then Trans light energies, and Alpha-Neutrons appear, and the soldier collects them. "OK, that should be enough... I need tech beyond your capabilities, please reverse engineer my pod..." Upon examination, the escapes pod armor could most likely withstand anything, and the basic consoles are more advanced then any tech previously before seen. ((IK what im talking about, that is all that matters xD))
