"Yes, We should not abandon them, They should arrive soon hopefully I have sent communications to notify them of our position." The Emperor said as he let the group onto the Large dropship, to find seats to strap in to.
Suddenly, the Ventus and Croiz group came into the Emperor's vision; moving far faster together than any other group was as they blasted back their Shadow pursuers with bursts of wind and Mana.

"Got room for sixteen more?!" Ikki shouted over the chaos
"You accept darkness, yet choose to live in the light. So why is it that you loathe us who teeter on the edge of nothing? We, who were turned away by both light and dark - never given a choice?"

Justinian held back his qualms.

"Yes there is plenty of room, I had assumed you were finding your own path out, but if need be you may join us." Justinian offered the Group of Xenos and 'abhumans'.

The Drop ship was large obviously meant for boarding, but due to circumstance it was good for escape.

The Sky King and his group entered the dropship, firing back at the Shadows as they did so.

"I'm afraid that there was no other option. Scans of the exterior showed a medium force of Shadow fighters, I needed to use my modified Siegfried to take those out first so that our escape would have a higher chance of success." Ragez said, remotely controlling his Siegfried using 10% of his processing power, "You have our thanks."

"Indeed, We will be leaving Immediately." Justinian said as he guided them onto the craft.

The Craft was quite Large and armored, as it was meant as a boarding craft, there was a lot of Soldiers on board as well, assisting in keeping the Shadows at bay by providing fire support.

Now they waited for the Kurgan Team.

Erin went onto Armada Communication "We are detecting a Serpent Attack-force coming from the artifact. Chances are Samuel has gone on a rampage and broken free of Isiah's. Communications are still down with the Strike Teams, We need to get them out of there now! Someone find a way to get the communication out!"

Unanian Forces above Tyril and Oron continued to dwindle, the home fleet being torn to shreds with little chance of backup as the rest of the military was out dealing with the shadow threats. "Shadow Ships are coming up on Bunker 156 Will someone divert ships to the spot to defend. Anyone, Please. There are thousands of men, women and children down here" Communication stayed quiet. "Please, Will someone come. Its charging up its weapons" Obvious fear in their voice, choking up, breaking into tears. "Please...Someone..He.." The voice cut out after a large blast was heard at the location of the bunker.



As the battle continued, ground based weapon stations held their ground, protecting the major continents of Tyril and Oron which held the most populations. Urban areas were well covered, but sadly Rural areas had little coverage and were the first to be attacked and fall. Shadows continued to battle, hoping to force their way into the airspaces above the urban mega-cities. In space, the home fleet continued to fight the losing battle, the System Wide Defensive Platforms doing all they could, which wasn't enough to slow the enemy from targeting locations on Tyril and Oron. Although the majority of Urban Spaces were safe, There were still numerous places on Engea, Eurna, Lucentya and Utias that had not been able to have been covered by current ground installations.

>>LOCATION UNKNOWN<<

"By the treaty.....Solarin could enter God mode now.......he could turn that entire space into Solarisian Territory.." One being said

"Preposterous! Is that stated in it!?" Another yelled, his fist slamming against the counter.

"Most likely he won't try anything, calm down. He's a careful one, not to anger us!" Another shouted

The group of gods debated and argued over the situation, but one, who sat in a chair which towered over the others, just stared into the distance......

>>LOCATION: REQUIS<<

"Commencing Dimensional Transfer.......dropping Sovereignty claim units" Solarin yelled

Outside, in space, a bubble formed, surrounding the area

"Dimensional Transfer will take place in T-Minus 30  minutes. All units are ordered to prepare for inter-dimensional adaption. This transfer is authorized by the accordance of Clause 2,940,559,203 of Paragraph 1,594,204,001,205 of Section 149,204,209"

As soon as the bubble started forming around the Caelum ship, Erin activated armada communication. "Requis, What the hell is going on over there!" Watching as the bubble fully formed within the area around the ship. "What do you think it is Miss Erin?" Asked her AI. "Looks like a defensive shield, although I'm detecting higher than normal levels of radiation on the inside of it so I'm not completely sure."

A bright light shot out of the Requis


"I CLAIM THIS SECTION IN THE NAME OF MY POWER! SPREAD MY CONTROL ACROSS ALL PLAINS OF REALITY, AND ANCHOR THIS LOCATION TO MY VERY SOUL! I COMMAND YOU TO SUBMIT TO ME!" Solarin yelled.

His voice reverberated across the area, shaking the very structure of the artifact.


"This is Lumia to all ships! Prepare to switch dimensions! You may feel a shift in energy! This switch will occur right after the artifact fires!"

Solarin finished the uplink. But, both dimensions existed at the same time. Only Solarin, the Chaos Serpents, and Samael was taken in, and then the rift faded. It was like two blankets on top of each other, with the Solarisian dimension being the bottom. You couldn't see it, but it's in the same exact location and still present.

The fleets began to evacuate

"Solarin! What the hell? We didn't get transported!" Lumia yelled

"He's counter-balancing my power, wait for a bit!"

As the Armada faced it last moments...they beheld a wonderous sight. The Artifact began to light up...building up a charge...its light glowing brighter and even repelling the nearby Shadows...

"They did it" whispered Nelson "Praise God in heaven...they did it"

The light began to grow stronger...

The Boarding ship took off. Songs of Glory blazed on the com systems of the ship as the soldiers on board including the Emperor offered their prayers and thanks.

The Ship took off and was picked up by the Crusader Strike Crusader, as well as picking up the Kurgan Gunships.

The jumped into the warp and appeared behind friendly ships. The time in the warp felt like a few hours when only mere moments had passed.

>>SOLARISIAN DIMENSION<<

Solarin laughed

"Impressive, you're strong enough to suppress my sovereignty. Both dimensions exist now instead of one overlapping the other. How have you gained this much power though!? Who are you!? You're not the Samael I created! You're something much stronger, much more evil!" Solarin asked.

Solarin, his demonic and angelic qualities mixing together, floated to Solarin


"I? I am merely a guardian of this world.....a world that belongs to me......." He explained

"Don't play dumb with me! A guardian? Don't make me laugh! You're trying to achieve the same as Satanail!" Solarin responded

"You are the one playing dumb Solarin....." Samael said

Solarin stayed silent

"You know the solution to everything to end Satanail's threat. You know what we must do. Yet, you don't tell them the truth, to keep them from hating you! To make it look like this whole thing can end happily! Well Solarin, it won't.....I can determine fate itself! I've already seen the ending.....everyone will die, die while trying to prevent the apocalypse. And Solarin, the Tormentors and Dark Serpents, they are not the ones you should worry about....."

Samael looks up, he raises his hand, and grasps at a nearby cosmos

"There's another, ancient evil. An evil that predates you, me, and the entire council, including your precious leader. And this evil.......is unstoppable......something that we can not comprehend.......it is not of this world, not of the Solarisian world, not of any of the other god's worlds. I cannot comprehend what it is. But, I will use this power to stop it! TO DESTROY EVERYTHING THAT FUELS IT! I must not leave a single trace of life itself.......to make sure this evil doesn't spread! Now Solarin, do you still plan to get in my way? You know the truth, but will you still hide it from the masses, who can't determine fact from fiction? You have enough power to end everything here, to eliminate Satanail, whose true function is to trigger that evil.........."

Samael explained. His voice and demeanor was different from normal, it was a melancholy, calm-sounding voice.

"There must be a way to keep life, even to defeat this ancient evil you speak of. Life is precious, we gods know that more than anyone. Because if we die, we feel the pain of those we created rotting away. And that number is close to infinity. Who are you.......you are certainly not Samael.....not the one I created.........though you put up a crazed front. I can detect a more intelligent, collected mind in you."

Solarin asked

"I am a disciple of fate itself.......one of those who maintains the flow of life, along with you gods. We have always operated separately however. While we cannot directly change fate, we can try to cause events to steer it in the right direction. I can also see the fate of others, the time they have left in life, they way they will be expunged from this world."

Samael produces an image of the Leaders and major people of the events that have occurred. Each one of them has a flickering, blue flame on their chest region. However, all of them are faint, and weak


"This represents the time time they have left......."

Solarin face switched to shock

"Does this mean?" Solarin interjected

"When that flame dies.......the being dies......and to change that many would be almost impossible.......I have given up hope on saving them, so I wish to restart this world."

Solarin shook his head

"There must be another way! I will not let you destroy everyone! There is always a way! No matter what, I've seen organisms like them break their way through! I can sense the power these people have.......including Isiah! They're power surpasses fate itself! Their influence upon the world will reverberate across the cosmos, and transcend existence itself! Destroying them would be wasteful!"

He yelled


"I've see you've gotten emotionally attached to these beings.......Isn't there a law that prohibits a god from befriending lower organisms?"

Samael asked..

"Yes......lower is the keyword. I feel that each and everyone of them can surpass the boundaries of a normal being. And they will show you that! Their power!"

Solarin responded

"...............I see............Then I shall let them show me. Show me their power. In order to defeat fate, they must at least defeat me!"

The jumped into the warp and appeared behind friendly ships. The time in the warp felt like a few hours when only mere moments had passed.
The Kings, the Shazcoi, the SAS, the MIDAFs, and the Kurgan Spetsnaz teams began congratulating each other, complementing each other's fighting skills and thanking each other for having their backs. The normally solitary Brain Chargers and Crusaders, somewhat bonding due to their similarities and their back to back combat during the fight, began conversing; thanking each other and speaking about their equipment and fighting styles. All the while, remembering their fallen comrades and praying for them.

The Sky King looked at the conversing members of different races, and smiled a rare genuine smile. It would take a long time, but scenes like these would become commonplace in the future; he would make sure of it.

Justinian and the Juggernauts at his command kept stoicly quite as they offered their own private prayers.

It was disturbing to be so near Xenos he wished to see dead, but their bodies had provided an excellent shield against the Shadows, and nothing more.

After that he had them depart for their separate ships. The Crusaders of the ships were at the ready however lest certain parties needed to be eliminated.

((Edited it for realism, New Covenant are still suspicious, and not friendly with non-humans, in fact the only ones they would congratulate are the Humans.))

Rivera had been sitting in the corner, being surprisingly quiet when compared to his usual self. He appeared deep in thought, with a saddened aura about him. The MIDAF Were standing at this point, cheering with the other soldiers at this point, connection to the Galactic Network had been restored. Due to the connection being restored, his rank had been updated throughout the entire network, and as such he had floods of messages coming in throughout the empire, most of them wishing him congratulations, some of them offering their condolences, and a small minority yelling at him.

Justinian and the Juggernauts at his command kept stoicly quite as they offered their own private prayers.

((Edited it for realism, New Covenant are still suspicious, and not friendly with non-humans, in fact the only ones they would congratulate are the Humans.))
The Unani Soldiers disembarked for Riveras Entre which was surprisingly still alive even though it was being commanded without a leader in charge of it. When they had arrived, the crew of the ship cheered and wished congratulations for the brave strike teams that survived, some members speaking kind words for the fallen soldiers. The Religious Unani crew saying their prayers to Feron to watch over the fallen.

Some of the crew stood in disbelief as they saw Riveras Call Sign as Fleet Master, instead of his previous rank. Thinking it was an error, some brought it up in a conversation. "Rivera, I think your Rank is glitched" one of the crew members laughed. "If only that were true"

Chernovko and Zhukov were the last ones left. The premier was drawing on his last mental reserves for this last battle. He was throwing changed and other objects around while the young Lieutenant finished them off with bullets.

Despite the gravity of the situation, the politician in Zhukov wanted to gain some leverage out of it, Maybe now they'll understand how much we have given for this cause.

He saw the allied fleet get away, Kurgan included. They could hold their heads high in any meeting now. Suddenly the Lieutenant went down. Zhukov rushed to his side, just as there was a deep rumble within the station.

"Its been an honor sir," said Chernovko, he knew exactly how bad he was hit. Zhukov gripped him by the hand.

"We'll take them all with us son," he said. Suddenly, the rumbling was very immediate. A literal wall of fire was coming around the corner. The changed ones began to panic and die. Zhukov stood up and gazed towards the center of the station, where the real shadows might be, he used the last of his telepathic will to convey a message before the fire consumed him.

"Do svidaniya you bastards haha!"
...scum.

Zhukov then felt the psychic field increase fifty-fold...the pain so intense that he nearly blacked out. The Artifact was just about to fire...but Zhukov realized that the psychic blast would kill all non-telepaths in the area as well. It was at that point he realized there was one thing left to do...and he knew he would bring honour and respect to the Kurgan people doing so. The Galaxy would never again deny the Kurgan...

 The Emperor felt his Zhukov's death in the Warp, as his life force dispersed.

"Lord carry the man's soul willingly into your arms, let all his mortal sins be cleansed, His sacrifice for Humanity will never be forgot." Justinian said aboard the ship to the Crew members who reverberated with an amen.

"Now I guess there is much to be done, I need to be dropped off at the Broken Promise so I can depart to Kurgan territories, Bring a fleet, we are to establish an embassy, I shall hope for their approval, and we can assure unwanted parties are not found." He said to his Crusader brothers of this ship. The other Delegates had been long gone, he had seen them off. Now he was to go to the Kurgan held space.

With his last dying breath Zhukov opened his mind to the artifact and became its vessel, it would destroy him utterly, but save countless lives in doing so. With that done, he collapsed, utterly spent.

The Artifact fired, its psychic blast reaching all corners of the galaxy. Everywhere the Shadows just simply died from the psychic blast. Over the homeworlds, the Home Fleets watched...astounded as the Shadows, on the eve of victory...were wiped out. They had did it...they had won...they had survived.



Two weeks later...

The King of the Commonwealth, Emperor of the New Covenant and Acting-Premier of Kurgan stood together in front of news cams.

King George said "Five months ago...the alien menace known as the Shadows invaded the known civilizations of the galaxy...bringing with them terror, death and destruction. Two weeks ago we stood upon the brink of destruction...the Shadows poised to destroy our homeworlds and bring an end to our civilizations. However with great effort...and tremendous loss, the civilizations of the galaxy stood together and brought the fight to the Shadows. Thousands of ships were destroyed...and tens of thousands of their brave crews were lost with them, as well as the dozens of brave Special Forces personnel sent to the Artifact. Together they stood against the Shadow onslaught, sacrificing their lives to buy the Strike Team time to activate the Artifact...which they did, but with a high cost. In addition to the dozens of soldiers killed, Fleet Master Wallace of the Unani and Premier Zhukov of the Kurgan also gave their lives during the battle. To them, as well as every sailor and soldier who died during the Shadow War...we owe them a great debt.

The Shadow War claimed millions of lives...but despite the death and destruction...it brought something else. Unity. Humans know what it means to sacrifice everything...we learned that lesson with the Fall of Earth, the Cybernetic Rebellions, as well as with the wars and conflicts the New Covenant and Kurgan have fought. Well today my fellow humans...that ends. We are here to today not just to pay homage to the lives lost in the war...but to also announce an unprecedented agreement reached between the Commonwealth, New Covenant and Kurgan. Today we announce the formation of the Human Defence Coalition...an alliance of mutual defence, trade and research. Never again will humans be the victims of a hostile alien race...today marks the beginning of a new era...where Humanity will take back its rightful place in the galaxy, something we lost at the Fall of Earth."

The King took a step back, allowing the other two leaders to speak.
