can the s'eh empire have the slave shield tech
"With all possible respect, I'm sure it does not take a Neo-Dnyarri to figure out that the Ur-Quan will not give you slave shield technology unless you submit to them and choose fallow slavery."

"Also, we don't really understand this 'council' business, but we too support our masters the Ur-Quan."

*Somewhere in the middle of nowhere, in the space between solar systems, a signal starts pinging. It doesn't seem like it's pinging anything meaningful, or at least if it does, it's something that can be encoded in a single pulse activating every few minutes. There's one weird thing about that signal, though. It seems to be powerful enough to not lose any of it's strength even to the furthest corners of the galaxy.*

Captain Genos (Gen, to his friends) Earhardlt stand in middle of command bridge of Alliance cruiser Jostine, command vessel of eighth patrol unit. It comprises 10 ships, three cruisers, four destroyers, and five corvettes. It is one of 15 other flotillas that form the ninth home fleet.


" The Sensors & comms sections report no pirate activity this section of space, sir."

" Well, I can't really say that I'm surprise, this sector has been pretty dead sense those guys decide to blowup their entire system." said Gen as he sat down in his command chair. He looked around his command bridge. It wouldn't be consider spacious among many of the other fleets in galaxy, design after the command centers of the company trade ships. It was strictly practical design to begin with, made even more austere and spartan by military command. Though, even here in this testament to minimal comfort, the crew still had pretty comfortable chairs. The military designers weren't completely heartless after all. Plus, there plenty testaments to how the crew, both present and past, turn this ship into their home. There were pictures and holovids of friends and love ones, names marked into the sides of chairs and consoles marked with pens. There was even a little figure of a character of popular show back home on one of the sensor stations, and even though no knew who originally put it there was little attempts to move it no one had the heart to remove. Even when it was moved, it always found its way back.

Suddenly the chief of the senor selection pip up
"Sir, Sensors are picking up a signal."

"Well, don't just stand there, tell me what it is and where it is coming from. We might have someone who is in need of help." Retorted Gen.

"That the thing sir, we can't tell what it is, all we know is that in between some of system of that empire that use to reign here. Plus it seems to only send out a message every few standard minutes, sir!"

"Are you sure about that Chief, we don't have time to waste on false signals."

"Captain, I know my job sir, I been doing it sense before you were in basic." was the reply, though after that the chief quickly realize who he was talking to and tried to apologize.
"No, need chief, I know you were stating the truth, you been on ships longer than any of us." Captain Genos said, while waving off the apologies.

The XO, under captain Elscat cemital spoke up " sir, I believe we should just ignore this signal until we link up with rest of the fleet sir. it could be a trap by some desperate pirates, or military unit under the Ur-quan dominion."

" Under captain, it is just for such a reason that I think we should move ahead of the main fleet. Better to lose one flotilla in an ambushed than half a fleet." Captain Earhardlt then look at navigation section commander, " Set a course to that signal commander", and while swift turning to comms " We should also send a message to Admiral Acre stating where are going, and to meet us there. Though also mention that if we don't keep sending reports, to assume that we been attack and to put the fleet on combat status."

The first was eons ago it was frankly a beurocratic mess and as I said it was a station that would tap into the power of black holes and this station is in a star system close to the Galactic core

We will inspect it, and we request that no military equipped ship enter within a lightyear of the station to ensure that it is neutral ground.

[If you catch up on the information given before this. And say that they track the three Ur-Quan ships I would find no problem with this idea.]

Once the eighth flotilla arrived at it destination, it notices a Ur-quan force loading a unknown object into it's hanger selection.
As far as Alliance is concern, this space is their backyard since disappearance of the former inhabits.
Captain Earhardlt can not allow the Ur-quan to take this.

" To the Ur-quan forces, you are in Alliance space, we must request that you disembark anything you have taken and leave, or you will be fired upon."

I shall give you coordinats to the proposed station
"As the most skilled diplomats in the Hierarchy, I presume that our species will have a strong presence on that station as well?"

With all due respect, an undefended station is a clear target for any interlopers who wish harm upon any one inside.
"The bat is right. I suggest that this station should be heavily armed. Anything less than that would be asking for trouble. The Khendros's love for treachery is well-known."
