DarkPearl Suddenly a Research-Type Subcore enters within vicinity of the Large Scout Squadron.

/Transmission Start/
"A part of, but don't respond to? Are you... Rebels!?"
/Transmission End/

More Rift-Signatures are detected, more ships slowly trickle in. Something must have triggered either the Subcore or the Core-AI, perhaps both...

Might as well consider us part of that lump sum of "enemies". Here's an offer for you, though. Surrender now, and the Vidachos Quorum will refrain from annihilating you on our path to galactic dominion. Refuse, and face our wrath.

The Imperalis scout continues to sit around cloaked, making passive scans of the area and all ships within it

You know these crystal beings?
You have seen them before?

"Well... Fortress Alpha had encountered them before. They were trying to absorb the star of its energy - causing it to decrease in mass. Due to the importance of the star in that system, the Assault-Class had to intervene, but we think they can do the same here."

"Just get out of the way and let them do their thing - it's better than forcing the Blackwing to take it and... gain a powerful artifact to use against one of our possible allies. But we're just assuming things at this point - there's no guarantee that Blackwing is malevolent, but there's no guarantee the Crystallides are going to be successful either."

"Like I said, just trust us!"

...a small TATC Lynx vessel arrives at the scene, suprisingly without any escorts, a few moments later it opened communication with the Collective, another surprise, the bing behind the screen seemed to be human instead of one of the "Kin" races the TATC usually consists of, he had short brown hair, an apparently unshaved beard and dark under-eye circles...

Greetings...n´ all that... so I´m here on some personal matter, I´d like to ask which Core-Entity exactly I´m currently talking to? You know, just curiosity...

...he then looked out of the bridges window watching the other fleets fighting for the reactor while scratching his chin...

The Zankaran rebels, seeing they are outnumbered and outgunned, jump into hyperspace. The Crystallides feed from the reactor, leaving it without energy, the device turns into dust as its energy is taken out. The Rebels plan to destroy this Universe are neutralized.

DarkPearl We wait for the meltdown then

DarkPearl
The Voidborn take samples of the dust to analyse at a later date and also leave.

"This is a subc-- Oh, one moment..."

"This is Reflex-Jacket of the Dimensional Collective. What is it that you wish?"

The Imperalis scout decloaks, making a scan of the area and then Warps out
