Captains personal

In the week we have spent on Equus III, we have managed to learn a great deal of the native inhabitants and their cultures and societies, from our initial survey teams we've sent across the planet many have returned with stories on intrigue, a prime example is the nations, of Prance, Germaney, and the Hooviet Union bearing names similar to their earth counter parts. However today marks the joint diplomatic meeting between the leaders of this world and those representing the Federation, Republic and the soon to arrive Klingons. I must confess that I desire that these talks to go without incident

End log-

In the weeks time since the Arrival of the Dawnstar and T'lava many things had happened, word that other worldly beings had come had spread through out Equestria like wild fire. On one occasion, a human Starfleet officer was suddenly set upon by Lyra heartstrings, who despite what others thought wanted to prove to her marefriend Bon Bon that she wasn't crazy about humans being real, and she asked if she could have his hands thankfully he declined, much to Lyra's dismay. Also during this time Celestia and Luna had wrote to the leaders of the nations across Equus III telling them of what had transpired and called upon them to a summit in Canterlot, though many did not believe it when Celestia and Luna had told hem of what had happened with Rainbow Dash and the attention it had attracted her. Needless to say the conference was going to be broadcasted live via what Twilight called it "Magic powered Television" though the idea had sparked curiosity from some of the captain's and commanders that had arrived the week before thanks to a demonstration on how it worked did they see a similarity to the old televised broad cast of the mid twentieth to mid twenty second centuries, only with be screen quality. continuing with this display, with the report that can from across Equus, Xiramek and Sarcon and the others captains and commanders determined that the technological development of Equus was between that of Earth's medieval period to about the early Twenty first century seeing as how many nations had a varying unicorn populations which seemed to slow technological progress.

Meanwhile, in Canterlot many of the foreign delegates and leaders were constantly arriving via it be airships (which resembled the Zeppelin's of Earth) train or by carriage with those who had to travel greater distances were coming by ship and then seeking an alternate mode of transportation after arriving, while at Canterlot castle the preparations for the arrival of he delegates not to mention the impending arrival of the Klingons the situation could be described as having gone from a place of government to one of complete chaos which is something the Discord would find amusing.

"Well of course I would" a voice said turning the author franticly looked around trying to find the source of the voice only to come face to face with Discord himself

"Surprise" Discord said to the author will a cheap grin and confetti going every where

"Oh don't be like that I just was checking to see when you would finally include little ol me in this story" Discord said the look on his face turning to one of irritation as he crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow

"Oooooo that's going to be fun you know me and Q have been friends for ages you know I remember the time when hey what am I still doing here you've got a story to write" and with that as quickly as he had appeared he was going leaving a confused writer and a chapter that needed finishing.

With everything at the castle in chaos and four princesses and one prince trying to keep it in an orderly fashion, despite this chaos still seemed to rein though things were moving forward in a some what timely order. The situation with Chrysalis had improved some what through out the past week, her daughter Shiva was constantly welled fed from the new friends she had made with our four fillies dragon and Fluttershy who found the little nymph to be the cutest thing she had seen in a long time not to mention the extra love that was being released by them was also enough to keep Chrysalis well fed as well as sending what was leftover back to the hive to feed the remaining changelings. through that week chrysalis had opened up some more seeing her child running and playing with the fillies and dragon, the feelings of joy and happiness, told her one thing that those displays were the first step to possible friendly relations between the ponies and changelings. However she had to put more of her attention to who was responsible for none of her letters reaching Celestia and who wanted them to pass into the void, that and hold diplomatic talks with three separate galactic powers. Going back about said fillies and dragon thanks to enough encouraging and the four fillies and one nymph giving what could be considered the puppy eyes they were allowed to attend the meeting.

"Oh where did I put my dress that I wear at political meetings" Luna said out loud trying to make sure she looked presentable for this event since her return she had attended a few political gathering with the other nations and her sister, but never had she in her years had to prepare for something like this.

"I found it Luna" Celestia said as she walked into the meeting hall carrying and elegant dress behind her in her magic

"Thank you Tia" Luna replied as she took the dress and left for her room to put the dress on.

"Ugh this is becoming so frustrating" Celestia said as she rubbed her head with a hoof. "Half the of the food still needs to be prepared barely any of the beverages have arrived and the Delegates and still pouring in"

"Fear not Celestia I believe we may be able to aid you in these matters" Sarcon said as he gave a nod to Commander Flores

"Alright start bringing them in" She said as thirty of the Dawnstar's crew wheeled multiple portable replicators on hover carts

"Princess I believe these may be of help just tell them were to go and they'll handle the rest" Commander Flores said

"Oh thank you commander Dusty please lead them to the kitchens tell the chef they are here to help" Celestia said

"Yes princess, please follow me" Dusty said leading them towards the kitchens with replicators in tow.

"Thank you for this Admiral I shall have to find a way to repay you" Celestia said

"That shall not be necessary, it is only logical that we should assist in the preparations, which brings me to an important matter" Sarcon said

"The arrival of the Klingons, in taking precaution I suggest you do not proceed with any type of welcome that you have planned" Sarcon said

"Why, I have arranged for the Wonderbolts to escort their shuttles to the court yard and a royal welcome" Celestia said

"I would not do such a thing, the Klingons are a very proud race, and I fear for you Wonderbolts safety" Sarcon replied

"I do not quite understand what danger could they be in from escorting an ambassador?" Celestia asked

"I believe an example may help to clear any confusion, the last time another race tried to escort the shuttle craft of a Klingon ambassador was the first meeting with the Tal'darim it ended in tragedy" Sarcon said

"The fighter craft that the Tal'darim had sent to receive the Klingon envoy were instead shot down by the Klingon fighter escort" Sarcon said a collective gasp was the response he received.

"Why in Equestria would they do something like that?" Rainbow Dash practically shouted

"To make their position very clear, that the only ones who may escort the Klingons is themselves" Sarcon replied

"I I see I shall have to inform Captain Spitfire of the change in plans" Celestia said will a hint of fear but, only a tiny amount showed

"Princess, the conference room is ready, shall I have the Delegates take their seats?" High standards the senior butler asked

"As you wish" High standards replied showing the delegates in to the massive room that could literally hold a fully grown dragon

"And please inform Captain Spitfire that they won't be need, take this note with you it'll shall explain why" Celestia continued

"Admiral if I may have a word with you and Xiramek and the other captains in private for a moment?" Celestia asked

"Of course" Sarcon said motion for the other Federation and Republic captains, commanders and admirals to follow before coming to a private study which Celestia beckoned them in quickly before hurriedly slamming the door shut.

"Care to lets us know what this is all about" Captain Lasky asked still not sure as to what Celestia seemed to be worried about.

"I can Captain, this meeting will be the first of its kind as such there is one delegate that has me very worried" Celestia answered

"Mind telling us who that is?" Commander Tigh asked his gruff voice sounding agitated already.

"Of course the one who is most likely to make absurd demands is premiere Red Hammer the current leader of the Hooviet Union, he has been demanding for years know that I surrender control of the sun for years and with the return of my dear sister he is most likely to make even greater to demand to put it as he says o show Equus the superiority of the Hooviets" Celestia said

"No not yet which is good which means we have some time to prepare for what ever he tries to do" Celestia said

"I don't think that will be much of a problem" Admiral Adama said "We've dealt with these kind of people before rarely has it ever gone to the point of hostility"

"My Father is right Princess" Lee Adama started off "We'll do our best to keep these talks as peaceful as we can"

"And if it does and it threatens not only your nation but the lives of every republic or Federation officer that currently on your planet we won't take it sitting down" Commander Jarok said adding in her piece of opinion. the thought of two separate societies agreeing to defend their peoples and Equus as well brought a small tear of joy to Celestia's face along with a smile. Sadly the moment was broken by the chiming of Sarcon's comm badge.

"Sir the Klingon Fleet has arrived, I would also like to mention they've arrived six hours early" Kolez said

"At least one hundred ships including two Bortasqu' class Dreadnoughts" Kolez said

"Kolez can you identify the dreadnoughts" Xiramek asked via his wrist communicator

"The Bortasqu' is the Klingon flagship commander by captain Koren, the Kuh'totht is something that Sarcon is more familiar with" Lee said

"The Kuh'totht is under the command of Ka'taf the youngest Klingon officer to hold the rank of Dahar master, which the highest rank within the Klingon military, I have personally fought against him a total of eighty seven times during our most recent war with the Klingon empire" Sarcon started off "Though out our encounters in each battle he eventually named me batlh jup jagh 'ej which is Klingon for honored friend and enemy"

"Your are correct Princess" Sarcon replied "We have in the human term grown to respect each other, Ka'taf even admits that he has found me an 'Honorable opponent' when we battled against each other" only for there to be a knock on the door, opening it revealed Dusty peeking through

"Princess, forgive me for interrupting, but the Hooviet Delegation has entered the city" Dusty said

"Thank you Dusty, gentlecolts I believe it is time for the talks to being" Celestia said leaving the study with the everyone else following her as she trotted down the hallway until she came to the courtyard where a low rumbling could be heard.

(Suggested Hooviet theme: Soviet March C&C RA 3)

The rumbling continued to get progressively louder until through the gate came what could be described as a convoy of armored vehicle's similar to those used by Russia during the latter part of the Twentieth century along with at least three hundred troops the majority earth ponies clad in gear that resembled 1990's era Russian military uniforms. out of the lead transport came a unicorn stallion who seemed a bit taller that Big Mac yet still shorter than Celestia, the moment he stepped out all of the present soldiers immediately saluted him. Determined to keep the meeting as peaceful as possible Celestia along with Luna and Twilight who joined once the convoy had come to a stop.

"Thank you, Celestia" Red Hammer replied in a not so friendly tone "I hope this meeting is worth my time"

"It shall be , and there is no need to already be angered" Luna said trying to keep the atmosphere friendly. the response from Red Hammer was a harrumph. before heading inside. Though his attitude and demeanor, already had Sarcon and Xiramek worried, someone like Red Hamer would most likely try and demand that the UFP, Republic and Klingons give them access to their technology, luckily they had both already started to formulate separate plans in case of this. Also by this time view film crews belonging to the Canterlot broadcast station, and had started setting up camera and audio reception equipment.

"Alright , lets get started" the mare said as she turned to face the camera "Good after noon Canterlot this is Film strip reporting to you live from Canterlot castle, today I shall being covering the first meeting, between the nation of Equus and three galactic powers" on a separate screen the face of a middle aged stallion could be seen

"Thank you Film strip, is there any thing you can tell us so far on what this meeting is going to be about?" the stallion asked

"Not at the moment Roller , but I'll keep you updated" Film strip said "Plus with this being a live event you'll be getting the news as it happens"

Alright try to interview some of the aliens if you can" Roller said. "Hold on a second i think I found a target, Sir excuse me sir"

"Sure, since this is the first meeting of this kind on your world, we going to give the run down on how Galactic society runs and were your world may fit into" Lee stated "Another thing is how your will react, which i can see two scenarios happening"

"Certainly, one being that your worlds race will accept what lies beyond your planet and takes a role in Galactic affairs or two the mass population will be frightened and your world my choose to isolate its self and refuse all interaction with outside races, which if you leaders do ask us to leave and never return then we will" Lee said

"Adama, Lee Adama" Lee said "Excuse me I think we're ready for the Klingon delegations arrival" leaving a stunned and shocked Film Strip to wonder what the outcome would be. During the interview though confirmation had come from the Klingon fleet, in the short message Captain koren said that the representatives of the empire would be arriving via shuttle shortly.

"Oh um if you don't m-mid what s-should we expect when the K-Klingons arrive" Fluttershy asked

"I believe I shall, in the words of miss Pinkie pie let it be a surprise" Sarcon said, though it didn't take long before there was a loud rumbling heard coming from the sky and the sight of multiple fire balls streaking through the sky before slowing down and heading towards Canterlot. As the ships got closer Commander Tigh pointed out to the news crew the various craft making up the Klingon delegation and its escort which came to include one Dujhod Generals shuttle

"Why so many ships can't they just be satisfied with just one a them" Applejack asked

"Dear Applejack it there is one thing we have all learned it is to never underestimate Klingons" Xiramek said while in behind them Film strip was continuously reporting on the display as the ships drew closer to Canterlot until they positioned themselves over Canterlot Castle, the two battlecruiser's positioning themselves so that their ventral Disruptor banks and turret mounted heavy cannons have overlapping fields of fire incase an attack came from the city bellow while the Fighters were circling over head watching the skies for any airborne threats. The eight Toron shuttles land in to neat rows their rear hatches facing towards each other before opening and releasing various race that served the Klingon empire, Gorn, Orions Nausicaans,Ferassn's before a Klingon in his mid 60's came out of the shuttle closest to the ponies just as the Generals shuttle land behind the eight others shuttle with its hatch facing towards the ponies.

"SuvwI' vIHtaHbogh qab (Warriors about Face)" The Klingon said as the warriors turned to face each other in two separate lines standing at attention. as the Ramp to the Generals shuttle lowered he barked out further orders

"SuvwI'na' van ( warrior salute)" He cried as they brought theirs right hand fist over their chest as the ramp stopped revealing its content. out first stepped the captain of the Bortasqu Koren followed by the legendary Klingon ambassador Worf

as the each stood on either side of the ramp, as the last occupant stepped out. Dahar Master Ka'Taf, standing at 2.2 meters (7.3 Feet) in height he breathed the aura of a warrior from his gold plated bracers on his fore arms to the sash and chest armor displaying his numerous awards and honors and long flowing cape on his back, His two Disruptor compression pistol in the hip holster that he had fashioned himself. In his right hand he held a legendary Klingon artifact. The Sword of Kahlees. The first Bath'let. looking around, he looks at the sight before him with a furrowed brow before striding forward at a slow pace . The footfalls of his boots echoing against the stone path way are loud as he makes his way towards the Ponies and those from the UFP and the Republic, before coming to a stop in front of Sarcon.

"Sarcon, Honored friend and enemy" Ka'taf says as his expression turns to that of joy as he extends his hand towards the Vulcan.

"Ka'Taf it is agreeable to see you again" Sarcon said as he grasped Ka'Taf forearm shaking it once

"Hahaha it has been to long my friend and yet here you are making another discovery" Ka'Taf replied "Tell me are these some of this worlds inhabitans?"

"Correct allow me to introduce to you the royal leaders of the nation we stand upon" Sarcon said as he introduced the four Alicorn's though five when he introduced Nyx who stated again in an adorable pout that she isn't a princes earning a hearty chuckle from Ka'taf.

"This child shows spirit, Princess your daughter shall make a fine warrior one day" Ka'Taf said as he saluted Twilight and slightly bowed his head

"Thank you but, I don't know about being in the Royal Guard Nyx may do something else with her life" Twilight said as she ruffled her daughters mane.

"Very well" Ka'Taf said as he followed Xiramek and Sarcon to a secluded corner before the checked to make sure that no one was listening.

"I am curious as to why you carry the Sword of Kahless, is it not to be wielded by him only?" Sarcon asked only for the look on Ka'Taf's face to turn to one of grief

"Kahless..... is dead, my ship undertook a covert mission to the Iconian control Dinasia system to try and gather information on the Iconians themselves, during the mission Kahless battled the Iconian T'ket, even managing to severe 74% of her left arm before she stabbed Kahless in the back and vaporized him"

"Damn" Xiramek said "though this tell us one thing, The Iconians are not invulnerable"

"Agreed, that is why I have chosen to carry this sacred weapon, so that I may avenge Kahless" Ka'Taf said earning remarks of approval from Xiramek and Sarcon before heading back to the conference hall unaware that a certain changeling nymph and Alicorn filly had been listening to the entire conversation sending many questions through their minds. Who is T'ket? Who are the Iconians and why are people trying to get information on them and why are they fighting them
