Kylle adjusted the collar of his uniform. He was standing in front of a large gray door. He wiped his uniform again. he gave himself one last look over and then pressed the button to the door. it slid open and he walked into the room. The room was kind of a dome oval shaped. People were hurrying around doing this in that. He walked further into the room towards a chair in the center. "Sir, ship statistics are all positive, we can detach at any time." Officer Rithela said to him from his side, holding out a pixel board. " Thank you," he said absent minded. "Prepare to detach," he glanced at the board and sat in the chair. It swiveled around to face the front of the ship. Out the window, he could see a massive space station in front. a hologram appeared in front of him in the empty space. "This is Director Nex, all ships, prepare to disembark." A second appeared in next to that "This will be a day to remember!" Silinduss said as she stood up out of her chair in the hologram. Kylle could hear cheers throughout his mic. His ship rumbled softly. "Sir, successful detachment." Rithela said. Kylle grinned, "the Twilight has detached." Over his com he heard, "the Maelstrom has detached," "the Inferno has detached," "the Nether Weaver has detached." " The Equity has detached, and the Administrator wishes us good luck," Nex said "form up" "Shooting Star has detached." Nex said, "all ships form up in front of the portal. We-" Nex's hologram disappeared. Kylle sat staring at the spot where he had evaporated from. Nex then finally reappeared "I am sorry, there has been a change in plans, the ship Last Sunset will be coming with us." Kylle noticed Nex said Last sunset with a bit of annoyance. He knew exactly why. The last time Nex was leading a strike force of ships, he had made several blunders which cost them most of the ships. He stepped down from command and Librarian Silinduss came and turned the tide of the battle. She was going with them to prevent that issue again.
Kylle watched as his ship moved into position. The giant ring stood right in front of the window. he activated a holographic map and it showed him several ships lining up into an arrow shape. his ship was one to the right of the front ship. Their fleet was made up of a lancer frigate, four hex frigates including his, a charger class cruiser, and a barrager class destroyer. "Fleet, advance forward." Nex said and then his hologram blacked out. "engines running at full speed," Lieutenant Shishka said over her shoulder. The portal powered on as one segment received power and shot what looked like lightning to another segment which did the same till they were all charged. After a few second a watery substance shot out of the center and then it was pulled back in until it was a shimmering pool of energy in the center. "ship has reached maximum speed," shishka said " preparing to sonic blast our way in. his ship rumbled and revved until just before his ship touched the 'water' it's engines flared and a sonic blast pushed them forward at much greater speeds they shot forward through what looked like a wormhole. "I haven't seen this for nearly three hundred years." Kylle said in awe as he stood up out of his chair. Someone came to his side. "Were coming home," Latharia said as she leaned on him with her arm around his waist as that was even height with her. He bent down and hugged her quickly and then sat back in his chair. Rithela said, "this is beautiful!" she had not been born when they had fled from the Harbingers, in fact most of his crew were not from that time of fear and pain. the ship rumbled very loudly as if it was bending out of shape. "Sir, something went wrong!" Shishka said as she scrolled across her screen. "I think i realize that!" Kylle replied as he got out of his chair and went to the front of the room where Senth was struggling with the controls." Then they finally emerged from the portal at great speeds. "Were through!" Senth yelled. Kylle looked out into the blackness peppered with stars and new that they weren't there. they were somewhere else. He also realized his ship was alone. none of the other ships were with them. "Where are we? Where's the fleet?" Latharia asked. "Send a distress signal out." Kylle decided. "In the meantime, figure out what happened." He got up, rubbed his eyes with frustration and walked out of the bridge.
Hey walked down the hallway and to a spot where it broke off into four paths. He veered right and came to an elevator which took him down two levels. He marched out into the vacant mess hall where he grabbed a bag of tea and a thermos. He walked back the way he came to the elevator and went two levels up and once again marched out and turned left back to the bridge. The door slid open and he stepped in. "Captain, I think I figured out what went wrong," Rithela said to him. "That was fast," Kylle replied. He walked to the center of the room to where a holographic simulation was occurring. "when we destroyed the other end of the portal, our portal had no place to connect, so we modified it to open up in the Harbinger dimension without help from the other portal, which in turn would cause an instability allowing our signal to be picked up by anything along the way, which means our trip would be rerouted to that signal." she took a deep breath. "What if, another dimension was in between, and when we started we were scooped up by that one and since there was no connecting point, it just opened up at random, spitting out our ships out of order." Kylle stood thinking. "Our ships can be anywhere with no hope of being rescued?" "No, our ships are in the vicinity because there is an unknown energy signal coming from a nearby star system. That signal is what hooked us to come here, otherwise you would be correct. So if we could somehow contact our dimension, we could send something to receive the portals signal for more accurately." She took another deep breath. "That signal must be powerful if it could reach into another dimension. So if we manipulated that signal to our use-" "We could contact them," kylle finished for her. She nodded her head, "yes." "alright sit down," he softly pushed her into her chair. "Good work." he said to her. "Plot a course for the nearby star system."
"Sir, another UAMD ship nearby. Apparently, it was damaged as it came out because it hit an asteroid. Its the Inferno." Senth said as he flew the ship. "head for that first," kylle said. He activated his headset. "This is the Twilight, respond." "Hey Kylle. The Inferno has been hit by an asteroid. We'll be fine but we'll need to repair within a few kilo seconds (hours)." A familiar voice replied. "Hey Drefth, where's Captain Naneer?" Kylle said, slightly worried. "He has three fractured ribs and a cracked arm, but he'll be fine." Drefth said. "good to know," Kylle said, quite relieved. "charge the portal."
"Yes Sir," Senth replied. after a few seconds, the ship rumbled and a white swirling portal appeared. The Twilight flew strait into it and after two seconds it emerged in front of a replica of itself that was damaged and smoking.
