It Begins
In a lot of ways, Ixtal-3 was at the back-end of the Kree Empire. It was common for officers at odds with command to be reassigned the planet's small fleet. Ixtal-3 had little in the way of resources. It's only real value was as a watchpoint in case the neighboring Skrulls made a push. In which case the planet would be overrun quick, but not before a warning would be given out to Command.

Mer-Vas grumbled at yet another day of meaningless work. Once he had led soldiers into battle! Now he was here..all because a general's daughter had some kind of fixation on him. He was about to call on in for the latest report, which he no doubt believed would be the same as always, an alarm came in. "What's happening!?"

"Something's breached the perimeter, sir!" came Lieutenant Her-Va from Station-34.

"Skrulls!?"

"Unknown sir, but they're coming in fa-!" The comm suddenly cut out.

At the satellite already!? He quickly put in a call to command, only to pick up static. "All troops, prepare for-!" Shots hit the base, the force driving Mer-Vas to the ground. He could hear fighting down the hall. He went to move before seeing a Kree soldier fall back into view, stained with blood. An armored figure walked into sight. Mer-Vas readied his weapon and fired on the intruder. The first two shots seemed to be repelled by some kind of miniature force-field, but the third did some damage as the invader fell back against the wall. However, no sooner had this one fallen then two more appeared, one firing a series of shots, driving him agonizingly to the floor. He tried to move, but could barely shift as the armored figures came by.

"This is Command! Come in Ixtal-3! What's happening!?"

One of the armored figures went over to the comm, easily working the Kree equipment. "We are coming, cousin. We are coming to take back what is ours. Enjoy your power while it lasts." The second turned to the fallen Mer-Vas and raised his weapon. The last thought the soldier had before he died was why the invaders spoke Ancient Kree?

	"Hey!" Eliza sees the soldier and starts jogging over searching her person to see if she has something to stop the bleeding with. "Hold on!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex mentally signals Iason to rejoin them with a report and to keep them together. He rifles through a few greetings in various Kree dialects to try to get a response. They're all pretty much focused on 'Can you speak?' and 'What did this?' (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Groot maintains a respectable distance while using his height to keep an eye out for..anything that might be there. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The soldier manages to speak after a minute. "Yes..didn't..recognize them. Not Skrulls..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Was not being Skrulls?" Red asked, more to the others than the soldier. "Then who is being crazy enough to be doing this?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Azura used the Time Gem to slow down the time so he wouldn't bleed as quickly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	They're Kree, Iason knows just what they can take. A little pain isn't near as bad as more bleeding. While the others search for longer term solutions, he heats up a hand to cauterize the worst wounds. He understands the Kree just fine. "It looked like a frontal assault, not typical Skrull style, its true. What can you tell us?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Their technology was..very advanced. Guns tore through our armor easily. Their own armor had.. miniature force-fields. They were all covered in armor, but they were shaped differently," as the Kree spoke, he seemed to be getting his wind back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Variated armors, personal force-fields. Narrows the options. "Was it manufactured armor, or organic? Try to remember any details you can." Alex holds the man's head up to maintain eye contact, checking for signs of concussions as well. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Definitely metal of some kind," the soldier replied. "Wait, there was one odd detail. They spoke Kree, but..it sounded like it came from a much older dialect, one that hasn't been used in centuries. We..we weren't even a space-age society when it was in use." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2012-09-11 08:27 pm UTC (link)
	"What? That makes no sense." Eliza had to interject with that. She doesn't like the way this is sounding. It's becoming way more ominous. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Are being history majors, maybe?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Or related to those Kree taken for study by the Celestials or any number of others. Kree hardiness made them excellent test subjects." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Or time traveling Kree," Azura said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ladydevil 2012-09-11 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	"We run into too many weird things," Eliza says after a moment. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	nextgen_kree 2012-09-11 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Celestial experiments?" The Kree said after a bit. "You mean Eternals and Deviants? Impossible," he said, shaking his head. "The Deviants died out long ago, and only Ultimus of the Starforce remains among the Eternals." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2012-09-12 01:48 pm UTC (link)
	"We hope they died out long ago," Azura said. "Even if we're dealing with time traveling Kree, kree deviants, or something else, it's not going to be pretty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	talking_tree 2012-09-12 05:26 pm UTC (link)
	"I am Groot!" Groot called in alarm, pointing behind them. In the distance there was a group of armored figures racing away, one carrying another over its shoulder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	only_half_here 2012-09-12 05:27 pm UTC (link)
	"This is more like it," Azura said and took off racing after the retreating figures. Thankfully she had longer legs and would reach them before Red. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	cosmic_son 2012-09-12 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	Iason moves quickly, lifting off and giving chase, not daring to fire anything for risk of hurting someone they'd rather have protected. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	needsmoredakka 2012-09-12 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	Red unsubspaced his rocket-board, zipping ahead of the pack, a large gun in his hands. "Oh boy!" he cackled. "Is being targets!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	spacepalm 2012-09-12 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	Alex just sighs, takes a moment to appreciate those longer legs moving at full speed, and opens up his backpack. Stock, scope, barrel. He lays down with a long range rifle at the ready, and waits for his team to give him an opening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eliza has her side arm in her hands quickly. She is lining up a shot ready to start taking pot shots if she can. She's not just going to stand around after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	One of the soldiers curses in their old Kree dialect, which likely won't be immediately translatable they start firing on their pursuers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	needsmoredakka 2012-09-14 12:16 am UTC (link)
	"Be eating this, scumbags!" Red yelled, firing his gun. The blast knocked him off his rocket-board, causing him to bounce on the ground a couple times before he rose, gun still in hand. "Now that is being good firing!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
