On HF –Victoria.

Prathamesh was feeling little nauseous and ever freeze face was turned red. Kim laughed at him “Hmm even the well-known Frosty face is uncomfortable.”

“This is first my first time at Mach 10, F – 22 feels like an ant it can’t even make me bat an eye.”

“Yes that’s right its way better than that alien one which had everything but not well coordinated like made from piece of junk it took us minutes to enter moons orbit.”

“Hmm lets connect back the signal should have come back after the ions disappeared.”

“Houston this is Victoria reply to me if you receive it.”

The reply came immediately “Victoria this is Houston you are on and clear. Report your situation”

“Houston this is Victoria the Engines are green, Energy is at 98 percent hull undamaged.”

“Ok received you may carry on your mission.”

“Roger.”

The Victoria was not only on a mission but also its first appearance and a means of showing power to Jena.

“Enter acceleration.”

‘Order confirmed.’

The AI replied

The space craft only adjusted it angle as its speed is enough to escape solar system and can travel in a straight line to moon.

‘Accelerating”

Kim spoke “Start form 10 G and then slowly increase the thrust.”

Even if the spaceship was controlled by AI it was not sentient and cannot feel the conditions of the passengers as the medical field has not gained much improvement.

Frosty controlled the spaceship and started accelerating. The force from the engines pushed them towards the seats but this was normal even for normal human pilots but the speed increase is way higher as friction was negligible at this speed.

“Victoria Report.”

“Speed 100km per sec still accelerating, Hull integrity 100 percent, hull temperature 333 degrees Kelvin.”

“Good increase trust till we reach 900 KMPH.”

Kim “The ship can theoretical stop in 5 sec at 1000 km per second.”

“We will do the test at 900 KMPS.”

“Hmph was so safe.”

“Theory is not always successful practical results should be used to judge.”

“Whatever.”

Soon the speed reached 900 KMPS and they were about to reach Moon.

“Initialize engine reverse.”

As they were nearing moon at a distance of 5000 Kilometers Frosty activated Reverse Thrust.

The four sub engines flare at full power.

The two of them felt a force pulling them forward but they handled it and the space ship came to a halt and entered lunar orbit.

After take a deep breath Frosty spoke “Victoria Status report.”

“Engines Green, Hull integrity 99.8 %, Hull temperature 373.15 Degrees Kelvin, Speed 1.03 KMPS, Current Position Lunar Orbit dimensions 189 by 256.”

‘Yes’

“Houston this is Victoria we have successfully completed Emergency Brake test at 900 KMPH and the biggest problem is hull integrity decreased by 0.2 percent.”

After 5 seconds a reply came

“Victoria this is Houston report received and you are all clear to use any of the weapons, the coordinates of the base is LUNXXXXXXXX”

“Roger.”

“Victoria Weapons Check.”

………………………………………………………………………….

On lunar Base a new spaceship landed without any humans knowing about it as it was too small for current telescopes to discover.

As the lunar base was severely damaged by both backlash and escape reinforcements were sent by Neptune base and this time Even a B ranked Mage was alerted as C ranked and below had half of their powers diminished due to back lash.

This condition made the decision to extricate Human civilization more and more solid.

The B ranked mage was now scolding all the people here but there was a smile on his face as he was the sole ruler here and there was no one on his head like in Neptune where an A ranked mage was sitting.

Little did he knew that today was his last day on lunar base?

……………………………………………………………………………………..

On Earth

After Victoria reached Lunar Orbit the on board Camera and exterior started to broadcast the video to Earth where all the leaders of Human Army and scientific giants were watching it.

Stark was the person introducing the pilots? “As you all should know the specs of Reaper class spaceships I will introduce the pilots.

Prathamesh Chavan Age 19, Peak of Heart Stage, Reaction speed 53 milliseconds, Peak strength 5000 newton, Personality Cold, Specialization Air force member

Kim Yena Age 19, New to Heart Stage, Reaction speed 89 milliseconds, Peak strength 3000 newton, Personality cheerful. Specialization – Engineer”

One of the old army leader spoke “Why didn’t you send any of the more experienced pilots.”

Stark glanced at him and replied

“There is no one who knows how to drive spacecraft and only superhumans can handle the thrust and most importantly Leaving Rudolf and Ajani rest of them are under the age of 30 whereas no one above 25 has even reached the separation stage.”

This shut the mouth of old fritters who want to sit and enjoy their life.

General Raze who was silent spoke “Director Stark the main thing I am thinking about is what if there’s as chance that the Jena civilization had sent reinforcements as according to Rudolf the whole base was empty and for some unseen reason many Jena’s died.”

Stark “That’s a probability but general I can guarantee that unless an S rank mage according to Jena’s ranks come no one could handle Victoria unless the person had a turtle shell like artifact of same rank and it will only waste time.”

Raze who was unfazed spoke “What are the chances.”

“0.001 Percent sir as the Jena society is a feudal one the stronger people should be near their capital.”

The other military staff had a discussion among them and one of them spoke.

“How much time does it takes to make one?”

Stark “Currently there is only one factory which can build one in three months.”

…………………………………………………………………………..

Lunar base.

As the base was back in progress the spaceship approaching was quickly detected and it was reported to the new manager.

Karla was dissatisfied after hearing that the spaceship contained no magical fluctuations and spoke with a frown “It must be those pirates who can’t even break our shields. Why should you report this to me?”

“Sir because it has reached on top of us.”

Just when Karla was going to speak he sensed Danger.

Boom.

The MOAB exploded directly on the Base.

………………………………………………………………………..

Victoria was underestimated due to its appearance similar to the pirate’s space craft but little they knew that a damaged space craft and a newly built one had so much difference.

The Jena people were alarms and they quickly assembled into mechas and flew towards Victoria releasing various attacks.

Frosty Reaction speed was put to test but he evaded it easily.

Yena was controlling the Weapons and as the Jena normal forces were crispy Laser cannon was not used and only uranium depleted bullets rained on Jena.

As the attacks were about to hit Victoria, Frosty’s excellent reaction speed came in show and the full potential of Victoria as it did a barrel roll and as the attacks were unidirectional they were easy to avoid.

But numbers can still make up the damage if the difference is not big.

Over a thousand Jenas were engaged in battle but more than 100 died in first minute and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.

Karla whose mind was buzzing due to the explosion could not concentrate his mind to perform attacks and could only helplessly watch Victoria destroy his army.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

After eliminating the mobs only 10 C ranked officers were still surviving.

Prathamesh was feeling a little weird and spoke “The information in report mentioned that the manager here was only D rank but according to Gamma ray scan their energy levels are more than 10 times stronger than the recorded D rank. And there an unusual fluctuating value in base which sometimes flickers.”

Kim who was looking at the Detector spoke “Prathamesh the Jena who had flickering energy signature is moving towards us.”

“Hmm”

He looked into the visual camera and saw a globe of fire coming towards the other ten Jenas.

Prathamesh was stunned “How the hell, fire can start in empty space.”

…………………………………………………………………………………

In the conferences room to everyone stood up seeing the magical scene.

The scientist were even more speechless one of them even spoke “Were the rules were learned fake.”

……………………………………………………

On the wavelength detectors there was a fluctuations in the universe as 11 of Jena’s stood together and a pattern appeared invisible to the naked eye.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Watching this scientists were again baffled but one of the older scientist in energy physics spoke with excitement, “Dark energy no doubt its dark energy the thing occupying almost 70 percent of the universe.”

Stark who knew something spoke “Sir but Dark Energy cannot interact with matter how they can use it.”

Samuel Stacey a leading figure in energy physics was the old man who spoke “Yes dark matter cannot interact with normal matter but it can be converted by another matter such as dark matter or.. “

Stark spoke interrupting “Soul.”

“Yes but this is only theoretical and maybe it’s a formation like in our novels.”

Raze who was unfazed by anything else but safety of his soldiers spoke “how to destroy it can Victoria handle it.”

As this question came the whole room was silent.’
