Commander Turon of the GSASS 'Overpower' surveyed the scene on the primary view screen. He twisted iuncomfortably in his chair as he moved the view with the controls on the arm of the navigator's chair. There was silence, the rest of the crew were either too shocked or too scared to speak or utter any sound. All that Turon heard was the light hum of the ship's engines as he stared into the screen.
The scene he beheld was one of utter devastation. There were ships of various classes and description floating lifelessly, torn and dismembered. Corpses floated in the life suits allong with the wreckage. Fires burned still in the engines and inner depths of many of the wrecks, but that was not the most striking thing about the view that held Turon and his crew in its thrall.
The ship nearest to them 'Overpower' was a large Destroyer, by the look of it a GSA Predator IV, one of the most deadly and best equipped ships in any GSA fleet. There was blue Darkstar fire pouring like a thick smog from the rear of the ship, the engines had evidently been hit hard and the Darkstar cells had been ripped open. The ship looked utterly beaten and lifeless, with only the occassional small explosion to say that some of its power remained.
Turon suddenly came to his senses, he turned to look at his crew, all were sat staring still motionless with looks of utter disbelief and shock on thier faces.
"Step to! Sensory and Tracking, scan that Predator for life signs! Psi-Pilot, get the shields up and Controller have the engines ready." Ordered Turon, and then heading to his position he pressed the Vocoder button and waited for the soft click of the device coming online, "Gunnery, arm all weapons and charge the Meltdown Gun, Authority of Commander Turon, Magistrate of GSASS 'Overpower' code 22XP897Z28.33V."
"Aye sir, Gunnery out!" Came the replied, and Turon let go of the button.
"Whatever or whoever did this may still be out there! Strategy, what is your advisory?" Asked the Commander.
"Get the Marines to battlestations and have the fighters and lightcraft ready for immediate dispatch, keep the sensors open and place the ship on orange alert, sir." Replied the Lieutenant.
"Okay, have it done." Said Turon before turning back to the screen, "That looks like Metta Scouring, and there are light showers of Fusion Idide scouring across the hull, it looks like our enemy, whoever they are has mastered Idide Fusion technology."
"It looks like a fusion whip made the Idide scouring across the hull, while I am sceptical as to whether it was Metta Guns or Metta Bombs that have caused the scoureing, though it may be both I cannot be sure for now, I'll continue an analytical inspection on the ship." Said the Analysis captain.
"Very good proceed." Said Turon, he was mezmerised by the grim beauty of the slowly rotating hulk of fraying metal, the wreckage field stretched for the entire radius of the system, and many parts were colliding with nearby planets and meteors. Turon was worried, if ths destruction could be brought to an entire fleet, what chance did a single ship have, event if it was an Imperator Battle Barge, none-the-less he had his orders.
