== Chapter 2: Feyrer Blues ==
The overseer had the displeasure of teleporting them all down to the planet. It was simply not safe for long enough for everyone else to be on the station until the issues that were plaguing it could be reserved with the power systems; the energy signature was like a beacon, illuminating the space station. Of course, the group could prepare themselves, and on the planet, they woke up in a church.

However, the planet was not as Feyrer described, not at all. The planet was rather green, compared to the desolate, empty wasteland that Feyrer had mentioned. Upon further research, Feyrer determined indeed what caused the issue. A rogue transportation brought yet another person, interfering with the matter stream that had carried the group. This also caused an energy signature; the group found themselves with some of their equipment damaged; while others had their equipment depleted. 

Meeting with the new arrival; a Spartan from the same world from where Jack Mender; Kolsa and the Grunt hailed, and with a new their new member to the adventure, the group made their way to the place where they would reside with shelter; at least, for now.

The next day; Feyrer returned with a communication. Some of the aliens that had invaded their station were now on the planet, with stolen technology from the space station. The overseer, wanting the equipment back, tasked the group with retrieving this equipment and securing it, for their own use to increase their odds of survival. The mission was completed without failure, only some members of the group getting injured, and they found weapons, three new sets of armor, and an anti-matter cannister. Jack Mender himself got a super cool PDA.

Of course, it hadn't ended here. Right the next day, Feyrer himself had beamed down, with a darkened eye after getting punched by one of the new arrivals, a troublemaker called Sheva. Either way. Feyrer now had tasked the group with a new objective. Feyrer explained to the group that the faction that had been tormenting them was from a species called Krochaescir, remnants of the Aescir Federation, an empire that assimilated three different species, militaristic in their core beliefs, a faction that was responsible for the war that had plagued the galaxy at the time. 

At the time, only minutes before, the group was also contacted by one of the trader factions. Something that they had looked forward to was obtaining new technology and equipment, outside of Feyrer's own supply. The woman in charge had introduced her as Monica White. She would be here to stay. 

Now, with a custom HUD equipped in hand, and a radio on the other hand, they would make their way to the cave system, and in that cave system, they would begin engaging in the soldiers that they were so familiar with. After the team brutally murdered the enemies, and made their way to the end of the cave, the commander had escaped, something that Feyrer wasn't happy about, but, they would be purused at a later time. After obtaining some new equipment, Feyrer told the group that they were safe to return to the space station, and told the group to go outside so that they could be transported. 

Transported up, Feyrer now had the proper opportunity to show the group around the space station, the Dormitorial Section, the Reactor Core, The hangar, observation, some of the maintenance rooms, the control rooms, and everything else.

After being transported on board, the group began finding themselves comfortable. Overseer Feyrer was quick to greet them all, relieved in the fact that they would now have company up onboard the space station. Now in a state of comfort, they all began engaging in between themselves, talking, conversing, fraternizing, the whole nine yards, what people do when they are in four walls, closely confined. 

Feyrer expressed the want to repair the space station as well, due to the fact that they would all find themselves with this home for them, maybe it would be wise to begin unlocking the rest of the spacecraft, secrets of a time long gone, to be revealed to the group. However, this was quickly cut short. A member of the group, Emil, had fallen ill, and their illness was taking a turn for the worse. The entire group had come to aid them, however, without a proper treatment, there would be no choice but to let Emil go. 

Feyrer, in the smallest amount of time possible, took the executive decision that it would be the best course of action to raid an old human facility; codenamed "The Core" , which was now being controlled by the Rendath, a species so powerful, that they would have the capacity to crush the group in mere seconds. What they had going for them, was the element of surprise. Days had passed, and the time grew near for the mission to begin. 

Until then, the "mess hall", was unlock, which was promptly converted to a gym. It had plenty of observation for people to look out the windows, for them to meditate and contemplate on the next course of action. Of course, this would be short lived, as the time for the raid had arrived.

Feyrer summoned everyone to the dormitorial facilities. They expressed their concerns about the mission, and provided sufficient information. A facility with five different levels, and four different wings, twenty four different sections, with each their own to explore. However, the target was the last level, East and South wing.

The east and south wing, respectfully, housed the storage room and the medical bay, respectfully. And so, the group was divided into two teams. Team B would be sent towards the storage facility, and Team A towards the medical facility. The infiltration mission had begun. Team A was tasked with the primary objective; Emil's Medicine. Team B was tasked with retrieving the secondary objective; a device developed by the Rendath called the Interdimensional Funnel. The funnel gave the group the capacity to not only teleport through space, but to also teleport through dimensions, and with the dimensional dams slowly breaking down, this process was even more easier to do. 


Team A quickly entered the medical facility, and through the help of a holographic cloak that would disguise themselves as Rendath soldiers, began going to town exploring what there was to explore, to find information where the medicine was to be obtained.

Team B quickly began roaming around to discover where exactly the interdimensional funnel was. This was a hardious task, with the group being split, and each passing minute counting down the end to the mission, they worked efficiently, and eventually were able to obtain the funnel.


As for Team A; their stealthiness had bad. They went loud, and rushed throughout the medical facility to discover where the medicine was; which in this case, was an advanced piece of medical technology, called Nanites, that worked within the body, targetting their disease. 

All seemed lost; the facility was entering a lockdown, and they would have little time but to get out.


However; at the last moment, Overseer Feyrer reported that something was coming in; something so large, that it would most likelely be the end for the group; however, to their surprises, it was an ally, not a foe. A metal entity so tall; called a Titan, was able to rush into the facility, penetrating the core down to the last level, and began quickly eliminating all of the soldiers that laid there. 

The group at this time began making their way back to the core, their shuttle on standby to leave, however, they weren't in the clear yet.

Feyrer had reported that their ship sensors had provided them with a "Radiological Alert." The Rendath ship in orbit had disabled their safeguards, and had armed Nuclear-Enriched Torpedoes'. Enough to wipe everybody out from the face of space. Thankfully, however, with the Titan's aid, the shuttle's rapid engines, the group made it far enough away, that they weren't affected by the brunt of the explosion; minus the shockwave and the electromagnetic pulse blast, causing both the Titan and the Shuttle to be damaged.

The group made their way back to the station, and it was at this time that they had all the time to relax. Emil was cured of his disease, giving him the capacity to think straight; and Feyrer had begun installing the device onto the ship. Things felt good, if not for the new enemy they had made.

The next day, Battle Drills were scheduled. Battle Drills that were interrupted, nay, they weren't even given the chance to begin, with two strange entities being detected on long range sensors. A doppler-shift wave; blueshifted. This meant that, something was approaching- and rapidly. Feyrer began preparations for battlestations; however- what he was not expecting was that it was two Rendath ships. 

Leaving FTL, they quickly powered up their weapons; the commander through radio, spoke out to them, warning them, and offering them to hand over the technology stolen, or risk being captured, or even worse, killed.

The group did not take well to bullies, and the offer was quickly denied. Immediately, Rendath Teleportation Sequences were detected all over the ship. Medical Bay, Observation Bay, Hangar Bay, Reactor Core. The group valiantly fought the enemies that stood within the observation bay; and the ships began opening fire.

The observation deck was targetted; so were secondary areas, important to the functioning of the vessel. They didn't seem to stop, and enemy after enemy, they kept approaching, and they kept getting killed. Feyrer had no choice but to call it.

'All hands; All hands; now hear this-' said the automatic pre-recorded messages through the intercom. 'Ship-Wide Evacuation has been ordered by the Commanders. All hands, report to designated evacuation zones.' and with the end of this message, the station began a subsequent lockdown, from bottom to top. 

The group fought to the very last to the hangar bay, however, as they traveresed the harsh terrain, Lyra was shot, and KS in a valient effort to defend the group, was damaged. Their wounds severe, down to their core, they didn't have the time to make it to the very end of the core. Their metal body fell limp in one of the catwalks over the reactor room, and subsequently, system by system in a sistemic fashion, began shutting down. A life was lost on that very day to the Rendath.
