Atlan-Year 19,756 ID Day 307

The Message came through at roughly 11:00 on Atlan time. The Hollo pad made a loud, BEEEP when the message popped in. Cleora woke with a start, the beep pulling her deep out of a dream. This better be important, because if not... she let the thought trail off, Then it beeped again. "Ughh fine." She said getting up out of her bed.
"Hello empress" Hugo said "is this a bad time?"
"Yes, It` s 11:00, what do you need" she said with a bit more annoyance in her voice than she intended.
"Sorry empress, but you asked me to fill you in on anything regarding the Sapphire." 
"You`ve been gone for 4 hours, you don`t have to tell me every time you see a piece of scrap that is floating around."
"Well we have been gone for a bit, but um. Hmm how do I describe this. The ship isn`t here." He said Cleora fully awake now looking surprised said "What do you mean, it`s not here?"
"It`s just" he paused "not there"
"Do you have any idea where it might have gone?"
"I am not pulling anything or joking around. Galactos Union."
"Garret, Galactos Union is a myth, a tale it`s not real."
"Just when you get a chance could you come over to the system, I just want to get you to understand we aren't lying to you. We are going to stay here open this up as more of a ship yard, there are some ships floating around. Maybe we will find out just what happened."
"Okay, I will jump over in a couple of days." She said as she logged off. too awake to sleep now she decided to take a walk. Later she might realize that if she hadn`t got up to take a walk outside, she might not have ever lived long enough to get to the Helicon system.

Suddenly a loud crashing sound erupted from sky. She looked up and saw an explosion from one of the OSDs, Then she saw a ship. Not an imperial ship, this one was diamond shaped, with the top opening to fire a laser. The ship fired again, bringing the OSD down. Just as soon as she saw it, it jumped away, leaving a bright red and black cloud so bright it was visible from the ground. what was that she thought not fully comprehending what had just happened, The the transport wire on the OSD separated into a hundred pieces all flying off in different directions, this of course was an intended purpose of the transport wire, it had to be able to go off in various directions as to not come crashing back down to the planet. That's when she noticed the main dock , still crashing down, What's wrong with it why isn`t it gone, out of the system. Then the alarms went off, and all hell broke loose.
