--Base of Operations—

As Tegedar practiced with his Diyelian forged blade he noticed that whenever he had his Delta Unit activated he felt as if he was connected to his polearm sword as if it was a part of his unit, he even found that he could wield it psionically with almost no effort.

--Hellworld: Deathstorm's Tears—

The Krith searched their island relentlessly finding all electronic components needed & resources for nourishment.   

Within 2 weeks the Kriths group had the Frigate, 4 submarines, & the communication satellite up & running. The Queens & Hive Guardians felt proud of their team but they kept thinking of what sort of horror lay waiting in the depths of the quaking sea ready to devour them.

Just before the 3rd week the Kriths group made contact with 2 other groups that were somewhat close to them, soon after they were in contact with several more groups. Coordinating data they marked their planetary maps seeing where each team was located & what islands the evac ships were most likely on. Based on their data the Evac ship is East from their location. They found they would have to make several island jumps to reach the evac ship. They would meet the 2 groups they came in contact with first at an island that was about a 4 day estimated journey away. The other jumps would have to be planned once they meet up with the 2 groups.   
 
The beginning of the 3rd week marked the start of their first jump. Tarakith & Sivtress were aboard the Frigate while Valgorr, Tegedar, & XerKhon were all on different submarines. All the Krith kept their Delta units activated while at sea. The first day they were battered with furious winds & rough waves. The second day the submarines were flanked by a massive white serpent leading 2 younger looking serpents, the dog fight lasted every bit of an hour, at the end they killed the 2 younger serpents & had lost 1 submarine though some of the occupants managed to escape & make it on the frigate. But the white serpent escaped, all the Hive Guardians agreed that if they got the chance they would take the beast down for good. The next few days were filled with sea battles below as the frigate had to take on massive waves none had ever seen before. Tarakith & Sivtress worked together firing out telekinetic blasts to help cut a rough path through the waves. When they made it to the island they were the second group to arrive. As they rested, recovered, gather resources, & planned the next trip, they tried communicating with the 3rd group who were being viciously attacked by a pack of serpents. What was left of the 3rd group arrived in the frigate & only 1 submarine. The 3rd group told everyone about a white serpent that lead a whole pack of sea serpents against them. Immediately they called out to other groups warning them of the White beast.

At the end of the 3rd week the group was ready for the 2nd jump, this trip would be alittle longer but everyone was more nervous now that they knew what they were up against. The second jump proved deadly, the waves grew larger & stronger reaching higher than most building structures. Several times in order to give the Krith Queens a break the frigates had to dive under the water riding the current & then come back for air before diving again. Under the water, while they didn’t come across the white serpent, there was no shortage of creatures charging the submarines looking to make them snacks. By the time they made it to the next island they lost another submarine & the other vessels & soldiers were battered & bruised, many of the ships needed various repairs, & even the ones with little damage needed maintenance before they could brave another onslaught. It took the joint team over a week to get prepared & ready for the next jump.   

The 3rd jump would be the longest by far but they would be meeting up with at least 3 other groups, or what was left of them. At first the trip didn’t seem any worse, but the longer they were at sea the more run in’s with serpents & giant waves they had. About 3 days out from the next island a wicked storm unlike the others started thrashing out, the rain started feeling like heavy hail, the waves seemed a bit more violent, but suddenly there was a brief calm but then they saw it, a fierce hurricane unlike anything they had seen. Various ship parts & serpents could be seen in intervals either in the vengeful vortex or being thrown from it several km away in random directions. The submarines were forced to dive deeper in the depths to avoid the hurricane but found themselves fighting the horrors that lurked there as they tried to get away from the hurricanes pull. On the Surface Tarakith & Sivtress’s frigate was sucked into the hurricanes pull. Both Queens flew into the air using their psionics to grab & lift as many soldiers as they could & fly to the other Frigates. As they did so their frigate was lifted out of the water by the winds so violently that parts of the vessel were torn off one by one. Making it to the island the group had 2 Frigates & 7 Submarines, but the vessels were in such a state that they wouldn’t sustain another trip.

Remnants of 4 other groups came sharing whatever they could to help the engineering teams build sea worthy vessels. 2 of the group’s spoke of encountering the white serpent, one of them managed to blow out one of its eyes. The Hive Guardians collected data on the sightings of the white serpent & placed them on their map getting an idea of its movements. After collecting all the data it seemed he was moving through an area northeast from them close to where the evac ship should be. It seemed that they would have to confront the beast before leaving the planet. While planning their final island jump 2 other groups contacted them sharing any data they had. While coordinating routes the 3 teams should rendezvous in about 2 -3 days & then it would be another 2 before making it to the evac ship.   

The engineering teams fixed & modified as many vessels as they could. When the modifications had been complete the joint team had 7 Frigates & 12 Submarines, all with a sort of hostile apocalyptic look to them. They set out just at the beginning of week 6 for their daring mission. The first day was mostly uneventful, aside from the heavy rain & waves the team ran into only 1 serpent which the manage to kill without any casualties. The 2nd day started in the same manner as the first, but several hours later they heard cannon & munitions firing out ahead of them where the were to meet one of the other 2 teams. Going full speed they went to help their brothers in arms. When they arrived the 2nd team was down to 2 Frigates & 8 Submarines facing off against 10 serpents, one of them being the White beast himself.

The Kriths team submarines dove deep beneath where the serpents were & started firing torpedos from underneath to drive the serpents closer to the surface allowing the Frigates to fire on them as well. The battle raged munitions & psionic blasts light up dark stormy horizon. The tide of battle had turned in the soldiers favour when the 3rd team came with 4 Frigates & 16 submarines. 1 by 1 the serpents fell to the depths slain. There were 4 beast left when the White Serpent bull rushed Tegedar’s submarine biting & gripping it in his mouth, half of the creatures body went up above the water & back down again. As the beast did this Tegedar gripped his polearm & slashed through the submarines hull & into the serpents mouth. As Tegedar was piercing & slashing everything he could in the serpents mouth, several Diyelian soldier follow suit firing their weapons at the roof of the creatures mouth.

The 4 Frigate’s from team 3 timed the white serpents movements just right allowing them to ram the beasts mid-section as they fired on it causing the serpents blood to cover most of the ship’s hull. As the Serpent lifted its head up out of the water in pain Tegedar let out a huge amount of telekinetic energy through his blade that sliced the top section of the creatures face off. Tegedar started to pass out as he was falling through the air but Sivtress caught him & flew him to her Frigate as Tarakith & the others rescued as many soldier as they could as the submarines finished off the last few serpents.

The teams were exhausted & seemed like their only reward was now to fight the waves & hellish rain but they felt accomplished as they had avenged many of their fallen comrades.

Finally they arrived at the island with the evac ship. The teams worked in shifts to get the ship operational, half would sleep as the other half made preparations. The Evac ship was prepped & ready just before week 8 of the mission started. Everyone crammed into the ship & several minutes later they took off into the air. The closer they got to the sky the more lightning strikes they encountered causing them to go off course & along the curvature of the planet rather then up. A few times powerful winds from nearby hurricanes threw them around around. They had no idea where they were at one point but they kept making their way up off the planet. The ship escaped after sometime of intense flying & maneuvering. Everyone looks back at the planet covered in thick volital clouds & intense lightning storms. 

Arriving at the orbital station, they are greeted by the commanders & soon after pass out thankful that it was all over.

Zagara: “Ah yes I was going to ask you all if you would like to join the swarm later on, oh please don’t kneel to me I am a fellow mortal, such is reserved for worshiping God, but rather do this.”

Zagara puts all 4 of her hands together & slightly bows for a moment. As she does so Duramir walks up next to her & does the same.

“Yes of course, we will share all we have with you, & train you. This is my mate Duramir, he is interested as well in the types of metals you use.”

“Also, I was thinking that after we have explored your home we could all explore that planet that we are orbiting if you like.”

{Hey no worries man, life gets busy. Ive been uber busy myself. Nice, ill have to create a new rank for male Formiks who surpass the Hive Guardian level. That would be awesome man thanks, ive been working on ship & drone upgrades, & I have 3 new ships ill be introducing in rps, Kilysa has one of them in my rp with taur, Plus im getting together a separate series of ships for the Krith Hives. Also I have a few things planned for the Urkun-iash, here is 1 hint:  http://img15.deviantart.net/f75a/i/2013/159/d/1/multiform_goliathus_dreadnought_by_lee99-d688fje.jpg  }
