So, what is your plan now

"engaging dimension tearing", Victor announces as 'The Alpha' crosses the rift between dimensions once again.

"So, what is your plan now?" Eva asks john.

"to the moon, I promised its governor that I will meet with as soon as I can and I think you like the moon it has a culture of its own", john answers with a smile.

As they get close to the moon, victor interrupts them, "sir you have a message from Zilk", Victor says as he opens the message.

"john, I am giving you a classified intel I just got, there was an attack on a lomonian planet, there where casualties, the lomonian managed to capture one of the attacking ships, and it is a federation robotic scout, I know that you didn't do it but I ask you to find out the truth, because we both know what is going to happen next , I have no time for chat, the prime council is gathering now, may the stars be with both of our civilizations", Zilk says in the message.

"victor, find out what happened in that planet, get me the secretary of defense, I want all defenses system on maximum alert and get ready for battle", john commands Victor.

"yes sir, calling defense secretary Mark Vasilovich", Victor replies and a channel opens, "john, I wasn't expecting a call from you, what happened?", surprised Mark asks, "I will do it short, the lomonian were attacked, and it seems like It was done by us". John explains to Mark, "I swear in the name of god, it wasn't my order, all of our fleets is inside federation territory, we are being set up", terrified mark comments, "ok, good so I need you to call to all the generals, an attack from the lomonian is inventible, we need to be ready", john commands mark who closes the channel with horrified look.

"it is bad isn't it", Eva asks with a worried look, "yes, the lomonian don't have mercy, if I know that they would've listen, I would fly to lomonia myself and explain everything, but they won't listen as they are a very arrogant race, so we will wait until their move", john replies.

"so maybe you do the same as you did to the Zang, just terrify them and they listen", Eva suggests to john, "the lomonian aren't the Zang, they a race that will follow their leadership to demise, it will only encourage them to all-out war, and I don't think I could bomb they planets it will take a lot more resources and leave the federation without defense", john answers, "but I see you are planning something aren't you?", Eva asks as she knows the look on johns face, "yes, I am pretty sure the grey did this mess, so victor, hack every grey network until you find evidence it is top priority", john commands Victor.

"so, what we are going to do now?", Eva asks, "we wait", john ansers and hugs Eva, "we wait and see, but don't worry I won't let anyone to harm you", John adds as he looks at Eva's face.

"maybe at least try to contact the Lomonian", Eva suggests.

Meanwhile in Lomonia, the grand council decided, "the humans and their allies will pay for the foolish attack, like the Bliq before them they will suffer under our might.", the grand councilor says to the council

A channel opens and the grey prime leader appears, "we were in shock when we heard about the human aggression and are sending our condolences, we will give you a pathway throw our territory to attack the humans and their allies ", the prime leader tells the grand council.

"and what do you want in return?", asks one of the generals of the lomonian army, "we want to join to your attack on those filthy humans and Orenians", the prime leader replies.

"we agree, they will pay soon for this foolish attack, we will contact you in three standard cycles" (two weeks in earth time), the grand councilor responds.

john who watched the conversation in his private room looks worried, "send this conversation to the Orenian prime council and I want to send a message to the group, this is something big and in I think their backup can help in the worst of cases", john commands Victor while thinking of a strategy.
