6 Capital Cruisers hurled out of hyperspace near Roebus. A Imperial Class Star Destroyer, 2 Aegis Cruisers and 3 Lancer Frigates.

'Bring laser batteries online an fire at that pesty io cannon wth a charge burst'

Th crew followed the Hapan Fleet Officer Recruit Kamon Shaddaa ordes and a thick, green bolt came from the front of the wedge shaped Star Destroyer destroying the planetary ion cannon hurling blue disrupter blasts at them.

'Good ridance to bad rubbish'

'Dont get to cocky Captain. I think its best t call a few ships from my command at GDI in here. This place is well defended'

Kamon opened a channel to his GDI fleet.

'Set course for Roebus and jump'

'What are you doi...'

'Dont quetion your High Admiral with such a manorless tone. Jut ge yourselves over here'

'Were jumping now sir'

'Sir incoming ships out of hypersace'

2 Alleigance Class Super Star Destroyers plumted out of hyperspace.

'Ready and waiting Admiral Shaddaa'

'Search and Destroy unnecisary ships. We dont want any more trouble'

'We have our orders'

The 2 Warships headed out and parted to go hunting.

'Ensign, send a continueous spray of laser fire down on the planet. Tell the Aegis to copy'

'Sir'

New Alderaan

The aide ran in, our of breath and waving a peace of flimsi at the Supreme Commander of the Galactic Defence Initiative. Dxun Isstal eyed the man coldly, and the aide straightened up and saluted almost immediatly.
"Sir! News from Ord Mantell." He spoke sharply, the way a career military man would. Dxun nodded and took the flimsi. What is said almost made his jaw drop. He spoke a few orders to the aide, who hurried to fullfil them.

Roebus

The Captain watched the hologram over again and nodded. Word had not yet spread throughout the fleet, and so the Supreme Commander did not hold him responsible for his actions. But it was still quite embarrasing. He smiled slightly and turned to the ship's Executive Officer.
"Colonel, alert Razor's Kiss and Razor's Edge, have them make all possible speed here. Also alert Gilded Claw and have them standby." The Colonel nodded and turned to his communications console.
"Communications, open a channel. All bands." When the ensign gave him the Go Signal, he spoke.
"This message is intended for Kamon Shaddaa of the Hapan Fleet currently stationed at Roebus. The warships of the Galactic Defence Initiative do not recognize your authority to give them orders. This is your notice: you have one hour to get clear of Roebus space before we clear you out. We will not tolerate the use of extreme hostility in this system, or any other. We recomend you open a diplomatic channel to the system. Galactic Defence Initiative warships will be on station here until this time tomorrow." He turned to the ensign and nodded, and the signal was cut.
"Now we see if the Hapans will try a little bit of diplomacy."

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--> The Fleet of the Hapan rebel, Prince Lupercus Darksword jumped into Reobus system. With a nod, his assembled crews set sheilds to full and weapons systems were brought online.<!--EZCODE BOLD END-->

"Lets give those abolishers a try shall we? Activate their abolisher fields...

And have the fighter crews to their fighters, but don't launch them yet, have them ready to scramble..."

<!--EZCODE BOLD START--> His crew cheif nodded as the fields were activated, potentially destroying anything that would interfere.

Making sure he was along way out of weapon range of all ships, he sat back and waited.<!--EZCODE BOLD END-->

1 Interdictor
1 Victory Class Star Destroyer
1 Hapan Battle Dragon
2 Hapes Nova Class Cruisers

Fighters will be added as they are released.

...repeat: failure to comply will result in immeidate hostilities!...

With a sigh, the captain of the Blaze of Glory watched the arrival of the warships. Fist came the two Nemesis-class Star Destroyers, Razor's Kiss and Razor's Edge. And then others... Star Destroyers and Hapan ships...

<,i>The Consortium doesn't use Imperial ships... do they?[/i]

Almost immediatly sensors reported activation of Abolisher fields, and a communications to the Blaze of Glory. When it had played through, the Captain sat thoughtfull.

This Darksword... he does not like the Hapans. If he decides he want them dead... But I have my orders.

"Navigation, plot us a course out of the system and set it to jump. Wait for my mark."

With a frown, he turned to watch the outcome of the battle above Roebus.
