~Officer's wings tram station Infinity Palace~
As the officer's wings tram car pulls to a complete stop at the tram station, the two side doors on the tram car whoosh open allow the passengers to exits out of the car on either side of the tram station. The officer's wings tram station in very nicely decorated with living greenery in choice pots. The lower half of the wall has dark fake wood paneling and sparse video billboards advertising goods and services on the recreation deck. Imbedded in the tram station's roof was the lens of a holographic camera that is currently off. As twilight steps off the tram car, the heels of her boots click metallically on steel plates of the tram dock.
In the tram station, Twilight spots several low and mid-level officers milling around the station mingling and talking among themselves. Several of the officers have a holographic clipboard under their arms that serves the same function as their personal minicomputer vambrace on their forearm. As Twilight Sparkle walks up to MP guard station waiting for her next to the station was a stunning looking dim gray bodied Imperator Alicorn mare with an orange, yellow-colored mane and tail. Her 6ft 2in physically fit equine figure was encased in a blue-colored form-fitting space suit with white trim. On her bare dim gray feet were knee-high boots. A pair of silver bio-mechanical feathery bird wings was folded on her back.
This Imperator Alicorn mare was Galactic Knight Erato Aureola, an Imperator Alicorn Aerospace fighter pilot ace and adjutant to Rear Admiral (upper) Justice Silverlight. Their collective startled gasps from the gathered officers in the station went the adjutant to the Rear Admiral said 'the Rear Admiral is expecting her.' Out of the officers that make up high command for the Royal Battle Fleet, Rear Admiral (upper) Justice Silverlight is hardest to get a meeting with as he is the direct link to Empress Galaxy Cosmos, the ruler of the Infinity Star Sector and Imperator Alicorn space.
After the MP security guard mare checks Twilight's security clearance level, she asked the Rear Admiral's Adjutant to step into the full-body scanner to finish with the security check. She can go on to take Miss Twilight Sparkle to see the Rear Admiral. Erato complies with the security guard's request and steps into the full-body scanner; she lifts her arms in the air to begin the scan. It takes only a few minutes for the scan to be complete, and Erato pass with no problem, she cleared.
Twilight steps into the full-body scanner and mimics Erato movement by lifting her arms in the air. The quick scan finds nothing unusual in Twilight's body. Still, the slower, more in-depth scan picks up Twilight's prisoner identification chip implanted in her upper arm as a matter of routine. The security guard notes the placement of her prisoner identification chip in her upper arm on her image on the screen in front of her. As the scan reaches her head, the scanner picks up an illegally implanted chip.
This causes all the security alarms to go off, locking down the officer's wings tram station. Sometime later, Galactic Medical Technician Cadence Sparkle arrives at the officer's wings tram station carrying her robotic medical surgery kit with her. Before entering, she sent three of her nurses ahead to find a quiet room so she can extract the illegally implanted chip from Twilight's head as order by Empress Galaxy Cosmos. Everyone knows that ex-princess of friendship Twilight Sparkle has been frozen in suspended animation for five years, so she couldn't implant the chip into her own head. She most like had the illegally embedded chip in her head before she was frozen.
"This is illegal PSI amplification chip. This chip was outlawed about five years ago by me. With this chip, any psychic ability of Imperator Alicorn will be amplified. I outlawed the chip for one good reason; any nefarious Imperator Alicorn can implant false memories into the mind of a subject. To the implanted subject, the false memories feel so real to them, and no amount of convincing will change their mind about it." Galaxy explains angrily hold the small glass bottle with the chip in it between her thumb and fourth finger of her gloved hand.
"Justice! I am so sorry I betrayed you once again! Once as a Princess and now as your wife! Since you told me that Twilight was having those dreams at the palace of attacking the Crystal Empire! I always believe you were lying to protect your people from being prosecuted! But the truth is you never knew of that chip being implant into Twilight's head most likely by Harmonia!" Celestia said, distressed as Justice push her away from him and head to the tram car in tears heading back to the recreation deck station.
Without being told, Celestia gets to her feet and runs to the tram car and board it just as the two sliding doors close on either side of the car, and it begins to move down the tracks. The tramcar is empty, except for her and Justice, who sitting on the cushioned bench toward the front of the car. She knows that if she approaches Justice right now, he will snap at her because he is terribly hurt by her. So she sits down on a bench across from him and reaches over to him, and he slaps away her hand.
"All right, Justice, if that what you want. Would you just listen to me right now, and if you want to answer me, it will be fine." Celestia said softly as he adjusted his position on the bench so he can hear her, but doesn't look right at her.
"I am truly sorry, Justice, for what I did both times to you. It was my own pride that causes me not to believe what you told me about someone I thoughts I knew well. Secondly, I didn't want to be told that I made the wrong choice, or my decision was bias. It was a fine line I was walking between my heart and head." Celestia explains as she plays with the wedding ring on her finger as she looking through the windows of the tram at the stars outside.
"Was marrying me one of those wrong decisions you made, Celestia?" Justice inquiry turning his head toward Celestia.
"Huh? No, of course not, it one of two decisions I fully believe in. The second one was having foals with you and starting our own family. Like a normal pony couple." Celestia answer as Justice wrap his arms around her and hug her.
~Several weeks later observation deck Infinity Palace~
The observation deck is attached to the recreation deck via a single large bridge that extends from the park located on the recreation deck to a large open area with a fountain and benches. The observation deck is enclosed by a tough, transparent bubble. On the floor are numerous small benches encircling a large fountain that changes colors periodically from a single color to rainbow hue. Looking at the sea of stars through the bubble was Rear Admiral (Upper) Justice Silverlight; his companion for today was his every faithful wife, Galactic Technician officer Celestia Silverlight.
Celestia sensed Justice's frustration in their quarters and took hold of his hand; she basically drags him out of the quarters down to the recreation deck. Went they arrived on the deck, she told him that she wants him to take her for a walk in the park and enjoy her company. Justice unleashes a long slow and deliberate relaxing sigh. He sits down on the bench next to his wife; he leaned over and kisses her on her lips to thank her for dragging him out of their quarters for this badly needed break.
"Huh?" Celestia exclaims, surprised. She watched the zipper on her spacesuit slowly unzip, revealing her snow-white pelt with a hint of cherry blossom pink. As the zipper reach beneath her sizable bust, she pops the dark blue bubble with her own magic.
"Now you behave yourself, Justice. I told you, you are banned from tickling my whole body. The last two times, I allowed you to tickle my whole body. I was hoarse for weeks. So that why I gave you full access to my feet." Celestia explains with a gentle scolding as she re-zipped her spacesuit up before return her husband's kiss.
"Now, why were you so flustered, Justice?" Celestia inquiry caring as she caressed the flat of her gloved hand up and down his thigh.
"It was that weapon shipment that Somnus and I captured from the Hobgoblins battle cruiser before it was sunk. I have gone through every known Imperator Alicorn star map trying to match the planet that the shipment was going to and found nothing." Justice explains as he kissed Celestia.
"What was that for Justice?" Celestia asked as she bring her hand to her face, a bit puzzled.
"That was for just listen to me, Celestia." Justice comment brings his wife to her feet and walking her back to their quarters.
"It times to interrogate the female spy," Justice said playfully as Celestia chuckled nervously as they walked back to the tram station.
~in a different area of the universe~
A 1,100 meters long well-designed battleship pursues a fleeing Hobgoblins battle cruiser after its latest plundering mission of virgin planet within this ship home system. The Hobgoblins battle cruiser has sustained very little battle damage, but the damage it has sustained has been precise. From those precise strikes of the gunner aboard the battleship has knocked out the battle cruiser warp engines and maneuvering jets. Forcing the battle cruiser to flee at half speeds to try to get away from the battleship chasing them.
On the bridge of the battleship, every position is filled by a male or female beautiful cream skin humanoid with blond hair and blue eyes. The most prominent feature of these humanoids were the pointed ears and well make light pastel spacesuits they are wearing. The command position on the bridge was older angelic-looking she-wolf morph with sandy brown shoulder-length hair. Her athletic 5ft 7in canine figure was attired in pastel pink form-fitting spacesuit with pale blue trim. On her bare four-toed pawed feet were knee-high boots. Sticking out the back of the chair was sandy brown long, torpedo-shaped tail. This she-wolf morph was Lady Victoria Talbain kidnapped she-wolf by 'the Echoes' from the Planet of ARK.
~ In the past~
Many years back, Lady Victoria Talbain was playing with her daughter Jennifer Talbain in the forest area of the ARK. She was taken by an Echoes retriever not wanting her puppy to be taking she tosses her to her mate and told him to raise their puppy. No matter what, she will try to return to ARK to reunite with her puppy again. During the trip to echoes space, the retriever flew into an asteroid shower; the guidance system was damage throwing the disk off course. It flew into deep space with Victoria still in suspended animation. It finally crashed on the Planet of Coppice, a heavily forested planet in a different star system.
The inhabitants of the Planet of Coppice investigated the wreckage of the retriever. They found the body of Victoria Talbain in the cargo hold unconscious. Due to her beastly appearance, the inhabitants decided to leave the monster to die. It was not till an elder from one of the other family groups took Victoria back to her tree town and nursed her back to health. She learned just how intelligent this so-called beast was, the she-wolf was highly knowledgeable and very quick wit. The elder and Victoria talked endless hours about various subjects. The one topic that causes Victoria to begin to whimper was her puppy she left on her home planet.
~back to the present~
"Captain! The hobgoblins are going to surrender the stolen resources to us." A high elf male said as Victoria rest her chin on top the back of her gloved hands.
"Frey keeps the cannons trained on the battle cruiser. This not likes the hobgoblins we know. They will not willingly surrender any of their stolen resources to us. They need those resources for their endless war on their planet. So approach at half speed the battle cruiser." Victoria comments as she gestures to the pilot to proceed toward the battle cruiser.
Aboard the Hobgoblins battle cruiser, an impatient gunner tries his best to wait for the battleship to come into range of the guns to blast the ship with the cannons. It all too much for the gunner as the ship was moving slowly toward it. He fires the cannons too early, and 'HES Asgard' fires her cannons sinking the battle cruiser losing all the stolen resources aboard the vessel. After the sinking of Hobgoblins battle cruiser, Victoria turns the bridge over to her first officer. She heads to her Captain's quarters aboard the ship.
In her Captain's quarters, Victoria kneels on the floor in her bare pawed feet in front of a small wooden statue of a tree known as the tree of life to the elves on the planet of Coppice. She recites a few prayers in the elves native language asking the tree to forgive her for losing the stolen resources.
The statue gives off ethereal glow Victoria knows the tree forgave her for the loss. As she gets to her feet, the chimes on her door rings and door swoosh open from the hallway enter a high female elf named Hilda Woodroam Victoria's first officer and the daughter of the elder that took care of her.
"Greeting, Hilda, what can I do for you?" Victoria asked as she smiled.
"We just received a message from the Council of Elders on Coppice," Hilda said, standing in front of Victoria.
"So, what did those old fossils want to tell me?" Victoria asked sarcastically as Hilda chuckles under her breath.
"You know Victoria, My mother is part of those old fossils you call the Council of Elders." Hilda comments as Victoria chuckles to herself.
"Elder Nada Woodroam is the only member of the Council of Elders that I have the most respect for. Those other elders would have left me to die because of my looks went that retriever crashed on your planet. Your mother took me back to her tree town and nursed me back to health." Victoria comments as her bare pawed feet pitter-patter over to the food replicator to get herself a drink.
"Your mother, after I was healed, did not throw me out of her tree town; instead, she got to know me. She learns just like her; I valued family and friendship above all else. But before I get any madder. The council of Elders message, Hilda." Victoria asked, taking a drink from the glass in her hand and walking over to her desk.
"Oh, yes, Victoria! The council of Elders hereby releases you from any obligations from the Planet of Coppice. The high elves aboard 'HES Asgard' are your clan now. May tree of life protects you on your journey to find your home world and your puppy." Hilda said as Victoria gives sidelong glances at the stars zooming by.
"All right, Hilda set course to the next star sector, to begin our search for my home world and my puppy." Victoria order as Hilda bowed and left the Captain's quarters.
As the door closes Victoria reaches into her spacesuit and retrievers a small round locket from inside, she flips it open with her thumb. Inside the locket was a small picture of her daughter Jennifer Talbain.
"My beautiful puppy, I hope you grew into a wonderful she-wolf and started your own pack. You would be a wonderful matriarch to your own pack. I sense your drive to be the Alpha even went you were small. I couldn't be any prouder if you were an alpha. An alpha of the most powerful pack on ARK." Victoria said with a hitch in her voice as she pulled her boots back on her bare pawed feet and return to the bridge of the ship.
