Imperial "turbolaser" batteries detected on Mimas surface. Laser-proof
deflector shields online. Phaser array online. Target lock-on. Firing.
Target destroyed. Return-fire anticipated from observed traversal of remaining
"turbolaser" weapons. Evasion pattern Delta initiated.

With the shields down, the orbiting probe droids scan the moon and
locate the biosignatures of all surviving humans, flagging the ones who
are not infested. Coming in under a protective swarm of HB5 heavy fighters
and Tie Interceptors, a patched up wing of ATAT transports land on Mimas
beyond the rim of Herschel crater. Emerging from the transports, a dozen
ATATs crewed by Cylons begin marching towards the crater rim, firing at
the scourge overhead. The HB5s provide fighter cover, while the fast interceptors
out fly anything else in the sky. During the confusion, nobody notices
a lone cobbled together BoP hiding in one of the ATAT transports doing
precision teleporting of uninfested humans from Mimas into its hold, then
from there to the Still_Unnamed, acting like a relay station. From the
heavily guarded transport also emerges the ChikNik worm tunneler. It rears
up.. then plunges into the surface and makes rapid progress towards the
moon's core...

'572 hostages teleported to safety. 439 infested, given lethal wedgies.
1108 humanoid signatures, undefined, in Mimas core. Sensors unable to burn
through ionization jamming. This unit in danger of being captured/destroyed.'
* With the sound of servos, the BoP's 'skeleton' crew launches from the
empty ATAT landing barge and head for the relative safety near Savannah's
Interdictor at stand-off distance.

With the ATATs marching towards the crater, the fighters overhead
heavily engaged, all the attention was on one side of Mimas. In the farside,
a cloaked ATAT transport touches down for a moment, deploying probots stolen
from the salvaged Empire ships. Using concentrated sensors all focused
on the core, they burn through the levels of ionization interference...
and a hundred tons imperial soundproofing powder, the itchiest substance
in known space, is teleported inside.. along with other things. Lifting
off, the transport becomes a target for dozens of scourge. Probots attempting
to shoot back and block the attack explode all around. A few get through.
Before the warp engines could be engaged, 2 impacted on the rear deck.
In a fiery blossom, half the transport's rear end gets blown off. Tumbling
out of control, its loading doors blasted open and spilling all sorts of
junk into space, an internal explosion seems to blast out as the transport
gets hit by 3 more.. and explodes.

*Driving back with several barrels of bloodwine in the back of his
car.* Wait a minute where'd my ship go? *Pulls back up to where the car
was previously parked and jumps out, shouting at the absolute top of his
undead lungs.* WHERE THE HELL IS THE ghaytanHa'!!!!!! *A lone spider makes
it's pressence known as it says: "Uhmm.. The EDA needed to borrow its transporter
system. It'll be here momentarily." Hearing this TDK raises his foot to
squash the spider. "But If you kill me it will never come." He stops. The
two other passengers in the car step out, one who seems to suck all the
light away from the surrounding area, and one who somehow is managing to
carry all the weaponry available in Quake II and still walks unhindered.*

The HVICs at Jupiter Trojan, still pounding away nonstop, inflict
massive damage on the now unshielded Herschel Crater. On the ground, ATATs
finally arrive at different points along the crater rim... and stop. A
pause, then a virtual wall of flying and creeping critters erupt from the
crater towards them. ATATs may be tough, but they're not that tough. Abandoning
the walkers, the remaining HB5s and Tie interceptors hurriedly make a quick
retreat. As the living wall arrives... the ATATs blossom into multi-megaton
nuclear explosions. The crater collapses, and a ring of mushroom clouds
rise from Mimas. The ATAT landing barges, having also taken off, arrive
back to Savannah's Interdictor, where the BoP skeleton crew unloads a rube-goldberg
device onto the hangar, then warps at maximum safe speed for Earth to pick
up their Master. In the hangar, the odd machine whirrs... and starts replicating
Cylons to replace the ones lost in the fighting.

... All the EDA ships suddenly receive a hail from Darva's Ship,
suprisingly, there's no one standing on the other side of the screen. A
computerized voice speaks... Do not fire on this overlord. ...Followed
by sensor information, and many different pictures of a zerg overlord.
At the same time this is being displayed to the EDA, Darva is on the surface
in one of the many huge hunks of hull that fell to the planet, busy reshaping
it to the exact same dimensions shown by his ships computer. Else where
on the planet, other hunks of the hull begin to become other things, hyrdralisks,
and many other forms of Zerg. Soon Darva has a small army of his own on
the planet, under his indirect control. His "dreadnaught" under heavy fire
from the scourge decides to be smart, and simply dissapears into lurkerspace,
it's firepower no longer needed. Once it's gone, the hull slowly starts
to repair itself, molding back into the huge holes caused by the explosion
of the scourge against it's hull. A priority one call is sent out across
LurkerBand, back to the council, and some sort of aid is promised to the
computer, even it isn't sure what type...

... As the dreadnaught reapears in Lurkerspace, the zerg feel their
energy being drained away, absorbed into the nearby space soon, all of
them but the Lurkers no longer exist. The lurkers, on the other hand, feel
much more energized....

*The air around him suddenly stirs up almost as if a tornado was
trying to form directly in front of him. TDK stood his ground as his two
companions tried to keep various bits of debris from ripping off their
faces. The spider simply dug its legs into the ground and held on for dear
"life." The storm died down as two small patches of grass in the area flattened
and sank several centimeters into the ground. Then, above that area, the
ghaytanHa' decloaked and lowered its entry ramp.* Dark Commie, Scorpion.
This is what I was talking about. This is the ghaytanHa'. Now help me get
these barrels on board. The rest of the EDA should be celebrating our victory
by now. *grabs a barrel and walks up the ramp.*
