A strange, large, never-before seen ship leaves hyperspace just outside of STE space. It is somewhat remenicent of a Star Destroyer, and is obviously a carrier/ small capital ship, however, is has no internal storage for ships, meaning that they are docked on the exterior of the ship. However, they are obscured with large, carbon nanotube tarps. Altogether there are 8 ships docked. An individual was standing stuitless outside the carrier, wearing a brown robe that obscured their identity. It was obvious, however, that this person was wearing a small oxygen mask of sorts. The individual was holding some sort of blueprint. The ships waited.

the STE send two small escort carriers,
They suddenly drop from Echo-Cruise 3km out from the ship.

They broadcast a transmission:
//TRANSMISSION START//
lets make this quick
i think those... things are onto us

so, how much is this going to cost us
we will send it over immidiately.

//TRANSMISSION END//

    The person standing outside the ship transmitted a message. "100k for each ship. As for this..." He held up the blueprints, "250k". He let the ships on the carrier undock and began autopiloting until close enough for the carriers to pick them up. He put the blueprints in a small canister, which then did the same as the ships.

      MaxwellCharlie
      The ships, transferred the complete amount: M1.05c
      and proceeded to begin picking up the ships, and the blueprints
      However, just as they finish:

      A ship? appears via a deep crimson Wormhole
      almost immidately, one carrier makes the mistake of shooting it

      image https://i.imgur.com/Lp8E2Nn.png
      it seemed to have... drones?

      Regardless the second carrier which is carring the blueprints charges its echo-drive
      and quickly sends a message:
      //TRANSMISSION START//
      GET OUT OF HERE NOW!
      //TRANSMISSION END//

      The attacker, turns its attention to your ship
      having quickly destroyed the carrier, alongside 4 of the fighters (two of each):

      It screeches a horrid noise via comms
      and charges its weapon...

      the weapon, is almost certainly an EMP

      you also notice that it is... Healing itself?
      all damage done by the carrier, seems to be gone within seconds.

      Jenwuf Oh thank God you didn't put that horrible sound in there for me to listen to.

      ImTired
      (edits in horrid sound)
      XD JK,
      but that is the point isnt it?
      its supposed to not be a nice sound
      its supposed to be fucking terrorfying for the poor sod that just god pulled out of Echo-Jump

        Jenwuf

        ImTired
        but those are ominous
        not scary
        just sounds like a distant horn
        rather than an alien fukin screaming at you

          Remaining calm, the ship makes no move to attack, remaining peaceful. A transmission is sent: "We mean no harm. This is just a ship drop off." The man standing outside the ship silently nods at the strange ships. He enters the massive ship, which proceeds to warp away. All that is left is a tiny little manned scout ship, as well as a large neon blinking sign, constantly blinking between languages, such as Galactic Standard (English), Huttese, Jawaese, etc, that reads: 'Buy your Maxintosh Starship now!'

            MaxwellCharlie
            the ship? proceeds to scan the neon sign
            it SCREAMS at it, before turning to the scout
            the scout is immidiately disabled and scanned.

            the ship? edges turn a dark crimson
            before it slowly moves towards the scout, and picks the entire scout up
            and places it into a compartment inside itself.

            It proceeds to attempt to follow the Maxintosh carrier to its destination
            having likeley gotten its jump coordinates (if its using a SW drive, it can easily track it)

            The ship? Glows deep crimson as it charges its wormhole generator to the destination of the Maxintosh carrier.

              The ship leaves hyperspace next to a blossoming city floating amongst the cosmos. Neon is everywhere, and I mean everywhere. There were at least fifty million residents of this city-station. The ship passed by countless residential and commercial microstations, before it entered a stupidly massive docking area, where the ship began to be serviced.

                MaxwellCharlie
                before the Maxintosh ship could have left hyperspace, the unknown ship?
                leaves its exit wormhole, promply snapping shut behind it
                it watches for a while, then skreeches down the comms channel
                and moves closer to the station

                Jenwuf
                Maxintosh Co.
                Almost instantly after it screeches, tons of offers and deals and sales and advertisements start being sent through the comms channel. "Hi! Milly Baze here with Co-" "Are you fat? Then try the all new su-" "SHIPS, SHIPS, SHIPS! Get your used starships here! Co-" "Come on down to Mallwart, wh-" "Insert sad music here Every day, million of Ka'malaki are dying. With just sixtee-" Etc.

                Jenwuf (So you essentially made a one part ship that is a single tile, along with integrated rooftop weaponry so you could combine it with armor for the shape.)

                MaxwellCharlie
                The ship just does its equivelent of a sigh
                and proceeds to scan the station
                this of course, will disable it temporarily.

                After this, it proceeds to look for anything small (4x4 meters max) that it could pick up
                that might have a human inside (it can check)
                then, it will leave the area

                Drakador_Chaos
                essentially yes,
                it also has "hearts" (those red dots)
                that can heal it
                and as of now, the purple ones also have drone launchers

                edit: i might start working on making the armour different
                but that will not only take ages to make the sprites for
                will also take ages to remake the ships so i dont know

                but i WILL make the hearts have a crimson trail, to fit with the theme

                Jenwuf
                (Anything new from the empress btw?)

                  Drakador_Chaos
                  well, she would actually terrorfyingly understand what these creatures are saying somewhat
                  due to that feather
                  but she is currently locked in her room for disrupting a meeting with manical laughter
                  said meeting was: "is the empress insane"

                  aka, im waiting for someone to mention me with some kind of demonic influence or something XD
