Saxon Andrew: Escape to Earth-The Legacy of a Conqueror

Lukas smiled, “All three of you have attacked my planet in the past. Can you understand why I might also worry about giving it to you?”

The three Ruler’s looked at each other on their monitors and the Royal finally said, “I think we can understand your reluctance.”

“You have proven yourselves during the trial of my Fleet Commander. I have made him the Supreme Commander of all my military forces and have charged him to assume the role of a Conqueror to go out and remove our enemies.”

The Myot nodded, “He would be a good choice. He is not driven by a lust to destroy and kill needlessly.”

Lukas looked at the Myot, “No, he’s not. But I know he won’t hesitate to kill where it’s needed. He just killed five Scout ships that were sent here by the galaxy that attacked the Green Civilization. He sent the sixth one back to that galaxy to tell its leaders that if they send another scout here he will take our fleets to their galaxy and burn all of their planets down to bedrock and destroy every warship they possess. You should know that threat was not made in jest. He is capable of doing it and will if they violate his prohibition.”

The Welken lowered his eyes, “I thought you didn’t believe in destroying planets with civilians on them?”

“Where are their warships being built?”

The Welken stared at Lukas and after a moment shrugged, “You are of course correct. You are sounding much more like one of my warriors instead of a human.”

“Actually, you should know that the human species has it in them to be the most vicious species in this universe, especially when defending their families. I’ve just fought that part of my mind in the past.”

“And you say this to make us feel better.”

“Your three civilizations are now part of our family. We will be giving you all of our technology and ask you to fill a role in the coming campaign to remove the threats to our people.”

The Johan moved side to side again, “I find it difficult to believe you would do that knowing we once attacked you.”

“I will ask you one more time, do you trust us to defend you against all enemies and can I trust you to defend us with all you possess if my people are attacked?” The three looked at each other and they all nodded.

The Welken looked at Lukas, “You mentioned we will fill a role in your plans. What role do you see us doing?”

“If you will look in your scanners, you will each see a large silver colored battleship just arriving above your planets.” The three looked away from the monitor and all of them showed their shock.

The Myot shook his large head and said, “My Fleet Commander says that ship flew through his defense formations faster than they could respond.”

“Those three ships are about as fast as our small attack ships. They are more powerful than anything we possess and our Dark Energy reactors power their weapons and systems. I am giving each of you the ship above your planet along with their blueprints and ask you to start building them. We will take them to have the special coating put on them when they are built and you will use them in the coming conflict. Those new battleships are capable of destroying our small ships.”

The Welken smiled, “So we really have no reason to fear you?”

“You don’t any way, Great One. However, your three species are used to flying large ships and I suspect you wouldn’t adjust well to flying our small ships.”

The Myot nodded, “I think you’re right. How do you see us using these ships?”

“We have developed a special suit of armor that is also powered by our new reactors. You saw two of them when the trial took place. We are building those suits at an incredible speed and we want you to take them and train your warriors on attacking the surface of a planet.”

“We’ve not done that in the past.”

Lukas looked at the Johan, “No, but you’ve dropped your forces on planets to take possession of them when you nuked one of its cities. You are equipped to use them to subdue the forces on a planet’s surface. Those battleships will move into orbit above a targeted planet and drop our warriors to the surface. My species will also have warriors in that armor that will go in first and soften up the defenses.”

“How will they get to the surface?”

Lukas looked at the Welken, “Their small ships will take them down and give covering fire. Once the major defenses have been neutralized; the heavies, that would be your warriors, will drop in and take control.”

The Welken smiled, “This would prevent having to destroy the planet?”

“It will be one way to take control but we won’t hesitate to bombard a planet if the situation calls for it. Your battleships would be used to do that.”

The Myot said, “You called our warriors the heavies. What do you mean by that?”

“My warriors will have a lighter suit of armor and will be built for speed. Your armor will have a heavy disruptor and a rotary cannon on them. Three of your warriors will be capable of leveling a city.”

The Royal started nodding, “I can see you’ve thought this through. Do you think we will have time to build the necessary forces to do this?”

“We are currently in a stalemate. The Invaders can’t attack us without the other two galaxies attacking them. The civilization that attacked the Green Civilization can’t attack us without M-87 attacking them. M-87 can’t attack them without the galaxy they previously conquered attacking them.”

“So everyone is frozen at the moment?”

“Yes, and all of them will be building up their forces at their fastest speed. At the moment, we have a lead in technology and we’ve not revealed most of our weapons to them…yet. We have an advantage and I believe we will have time to build.”

The three rulers looked at each other and Lukas knew what they were thinking. The Welken looked at him, “And your species will be commanding our forces?”

“Not like you think.”

“How is that?”

“The human you put on trial will command all of our forces, including our own. We will all follow his orders whether we agree with them or not. He will be our Conqueror.”

“So he will rule all of us?”

“Until his task is completed, he will. At that point, the four of us will sit down and determine how we will live and work together.” Lukas smiled, “Do you have anyone that is telepathic and possesses the skills he has demonstrated. I’m open to your suggestions.”

The Royal smiled, “You and he are related.”

Lukas was surprised by the Welken’s remark and he sighed, “He is my son.”

The Welken smiled, “That also makes him related to me. I will accept your suggestions and will do all I can to make them a reality.”

The Johan leaned forward, “I will also accept them.”

The Myot smiled, “I trust the Welken with my people’s lives. If this Conqueror is related to the Royal, I will also accept him.”

“Before you speak too quickly, you should know that he intends to clip the claws of the other Fellowship Civilizations.”

The Johan smiled, “That is where he should start. They would interfere if given the chance.”

Lukas looked at the Welken, “How do you feel about that?”

“I don’t like it but I will swear that my forces will follow his orders. I can live with doing what he directs us to do. I will not second guess him.”

“Good. I want the three of you to take a shuttle up to the battleship we’ve sent to your planets and go with them.”

“Where are they going?”

Lukas smiled, “To handle the Fellowship. You should bear witness to what happens.”

“Will you be going?”

“I will arrive in a fourth battleship within an hour.”
