It Begins

Year 1482 of the Earthling calendar

Jeanne and her two husbands celebrate their 1000 years with their close family, since by now they have too many descendants.

Year 1600 of the Earthling calendar

Jeanne, Arthur, Leo, Louis, Elise, George, Diante, Emma and other important figures in the civilization were in a meeting. Since the 1000 year of protection has passed, there will soon be at war with the republic of Rokar. It will determine the ruler of the Orion-Cygnus arm of the Milky Way.

"Our protection will soon be finished and the republic of Rokar is already gathering their army to attack us." said Emma.

"We have to be ready for them. They are not going to give up easily." said George.

"We have been preparing for this moment for a long time. We have improved our technology, our weapons, our defenses, and our strategies. We have also formed alliances with other civilizations that share our values and interests. We are not alone in this fight." said Diante.

"We have also discovered new resources and secrets that give us an edge over our enemies. The Rudestone planet is one of them. It is a treasure trove of potential and power." said Elise.

"Yes, but we have to be careful with it. We don't know everything about it yet. It could also be dangerous or unstable." said Louis.

"That's why we have been studying it carefully and cautiously. We have found out some amazing things about it. For example, it seems to have some kind of intelligence or consciousness. It can communicate with us through radio waves or electromagnetic pulses." said Leo.

"What does it say?" asked Jeanne.

"It's hard to understand. It's like a code or a puzzle. But we have managed to decipher some of it. It seems to be telling us its history, its origin, its purpose." said Leo.

"And what is that?" asked Arthur.

"Well, according to what we have learned so far, it seems that the Rudestone planet is not a natural phenomenon. It is an artificial construct, created by an ancient and advanced civilization that existed long before us." said Leo.

"Who were they? And why did they create it?" asked Jeanne.

"We don't know yet. But we have some clues, we decided to call them Builders since we have no idea of their identity. And they seem to have created the Rudestone planet as a weapon, a weapon against a powerful and evil enemy that threatened their existence." said Leo.

"Who was their enemy? And what happened to them?" asked Arthur.

"We don't know yet. But we have some theories. Their enemy might have been another ancient and advanced civilization that existed in another galaxy, or maybe even another dimension. They might have been at war for eons, until one of them unleashed a devastating attack that destroyed both of them." said Leo.

"And what was their attack? And how did the Rudestone planet survive?" asked Jeanne.

"We don't know yet. But we have some speculations. Their attack might have been something that altered the fabric of space-time itself, creating ripples or distortions that affected everything in their vicinity. The Rudestone planet might have survived by using its powerful magnetic field and its Rudestone crystals to shield itself from the effects of the attack." said Leo.

"So, what does it want from us? And what does it have to do with our war with the Rokar?" asked Arthur.

"We don't know yet. But we have some guesses. It might want to share its knowledge and power with us, or it might want to warn us or help us against a similar threat that might arise in the future. It might also have something to do with our war with the Rokar, because we have detected some traces of Rudestone on some of their ships and bases." said Leo.

"What? How did they get it? And what are they using it for?" asked Jeanne.

"We don't know yet. But we have some suspicions. They might have found some fragments or debris of the Rudestone planet somewhere in the galaxy, or they might have stolen some from us when we were not looking. They might be using it for enhancing their weapons or shields, or for creating new technologies or experiments." said Leo.

"That's not good. We can't let them use it against us. We have to stop them before they do more damage." said Arthur.

"I agree. We have to act fast and decisively. We have to launch a full-scale attack on their territory and destroy their fleet and their bases." said Emma.

"You're right, how do we organize it?" asked Arthur.

"Simple, we are now able to use level 2 void paths and have developed the blocker which can stop the use of all level 1 void paths where we use them." replied Jeanne.

With their plan set, Jeanne and her team began preparations for the intergalactic war. They gathered their armies and resources, including the Rudestone planet, which they used to enhance their weapons and defenses. They also trained their soldiers and strategized their attack plan, which involved a surprise strike at the heart of the Rokar republic.

Arthur's father would lead the war as the General in chief, with Jeanne as vice commander. Other higher-ups were assigned to different leading roles for the wars.

After saying that, they all stand up to prepare themselves.

Year 1602 of the Earthling calendar

While the republic of Rokar prepared a total army of 10 billion spaceships, Earthling had prepared 8 billion. This was the maximum they could send from both sides.

Year 1603 of the Earthling calendar

The war began with a simultaneous attack from both sides. The battle was fierce and intense, with both civilizations using their most advanced weapons and technology. The Rokar and Earthling fleets were at a stalemate.

For 5 years, no one has advanced. Jeanne were commanding in the ScienceExplorer, which remain her own spaceship but has received many improvements over the years with the growth of Earthling's technology, particularly with the Rudestone.

With the use of Rudestone on their weapons, the laser beam could somehow jump and teleport further in the direction it was going. They didn't understand how it works, but it could surprise the enemy.

Jeanne was right, the republic managed to get some of this material and use them to make some of their battleships harder.

In the mother ship of the Rokar army, a Rokar's woman was being seen with many scars seen on her face due to many battles. She was the general in chief of the fleet.

"It seemed that this material that we stole from some of Earthling's spaceship are really special." She pondered, she really wonders how they did get them.

'After winning against them, I will have to ask them while having a pleasure of torturing them' she thought with a smile.

One day, after destroying a little fleet of the human race, they discovered a material they had never seen, it was harder than anything they had ever seen and so decided to collect them to use them. At this moment, they decided to take this material if they ever found it out on Earthling's ships again.

"The war has lasted too long, all generals, it's finally time, use the special ship." she yelled to all the face in holograms in front of her.

"Yes!" they replied all in unison.

The Rokar general had a sly grin on her face, confident that it would be the key to victory. It was a plan that had been in the works for years, and finally, it was time to put it into action.

Jeanne and her crew had received intel that the Rokar were up to something big, but they couldn't quite figure out what it was. They had no idea what it entailed, but they knew it couldn't be good.

As the Rokar fleet advanced, the Earthling fleet was caught off guard. They were bombarded with a barrage of missiles that seemed to come out of nowhere. It was chaos, and the Earthling ships were struggling to keep up.

Jeanne was at the helm of the ScienceExplorer, trying to figure out what was happening. That's when she saw it. A massive ship, unlike anything she had ever seen before, was looming in the distance.

"Their flagship!" Jeanne shouted to her crew.

"We have to take it down!"

The ScienceExplorer led the charge, with other Earthling ships following suit. They fired everything they had at the flagship, but it seemed almost indestructible

The Rokar race bought a level 3 civilization technology, this was the cause for these improvements, this was the only battleship they have of this sort. This was their secret weapon.

Jeanne didn't know what she could do, she could only saw many of her fellow humans being mercilessly killed.

Suddenly she saw a Capital ship going there, it was the ship of the General in chief, there was Arthur's father and Leo's father on this ship.

She received a recorded vocal message.

"Jeanne, Arthur and Leo" she heard both of them said.

"I'm sorry to say this, but it seems that without drastic measures we can't take down that ship." said George.

"I came by a conclusion, with the Rudestone, we can link our battleships to them with the space effects they had. Only with an explosion of a Capital Ship can we take it down." Dante continued.

"Indeed, on this ship, there are only people from the old generation, we need new blood to replace us."

"We love all of you" they both said with a teary and hushed voice.

The video ended and Jeanne saw their ship explode in smoke of flames.
