Chapter Thirty

Back onboard the Anacoda, Alcasian Republic Military Colonel Kellson turned his command chair toward Alcasian Republic Military Lieutenant Thomas who continued to monitor video audio communications screen frequencies. "Thomas, maintain communications silence."

He then proceeded to address everyone onboard the Anacoda via the command chair's intercom unit. "Attention all personnel, this is your commanding officer. speaking. Go to Quiet Level 1 status."

Soon as the order was given, Alcasian Republic Military Captain Thomas Winter currently on duty in the Anacoda's engineering section used hand motions to order several other officers and enlisted personnel to begin decreasing the power output generated by the Alcasia-class starship. At the same time, all of the Alcasian Republic Military officers and enlisted personnel on duty in communications intelligence likewise powered the communications transcievers.

In each of the four docking bays, each group of eight Alcasian Republic Military flight crews also went to Quiet Level 1 status.

Back on Anacoda's bridge, Alcasian Republic Military Colonel Kellson waited quietly along with the rest of his bridge crews as the Anacoda continued toward the northern edge of the Alkens Sectors Northern District.

A couple hours later onboard AFM Scanner Array Alpha-112254-L in the Berabs System, one of the scanner officers currently on duty motioned for another one to join him.

"Just lost the transponder signatures for the Anacoda, Adsasia, and the rest of the 89866554th Alcasian Republic Military Combat Assault Taskforce." Alcasian Federal Military Captain Aarons commented.

"Captain, are you sure?" Another one of the Alcasian Federal Military scanner officers inquired.

Alcasian Federal Military Captain Aarons took a second look at the scanner display which continued to indicated the lack of transponder signals from the Anacoda, Adsasia, Atarina, Arrestia, Acalisia, Alatina, Aserina and the other 94 starships, crusiers, and destroyers comprising the 89866554th Alcasian Republic Military Combat Assault Taskforce.

The situation report was sent to Alcasian Federal Military Commander Lestans who served as the commanding officer of Alcasian Federal Military Scanner Array Alpha-112254-L. Upon reading over the Sitrep, Alcasian Federal Military Commander Lestans transmitted the report to Southwest Region Alcasian Federal Military Field Commander Franks.

Back in the war room at the Alcasian Federal Defense Ministry on Agerania One, Alcasian Federation High Councilor Kerrans, and Alcasian Federal Military Chief of Staff Commander Brianson who had both read over the Sitrep also noticed the disappearance of the transponder signatures representing Anacoda, Adsasia, Atarina, Arrestia, Acalisia, Altania, Asernia, and the other 94 starships, cruisers, and destroyers that comprised the 89866554th Alcasian Republic Military Combat Assault Taskforce.

"If there are still headed for the northern edge of the Alkens Sectors, Berars Sectors, Nerrans Sectors, Lerrabs Sectors, Peeras Sectors, Weesan Sectors, Linns Sectors, Wren Sectors, and Cellsas Sectors." An Alcasian Federal Military Communications officer noticed. "They are operating under Quiet Level 1 status."

"Even at Quiet 1 Level, Alcasia-class vessels used by both us and Alcasian Republic Military forces transmit hyperlight signatures." Alcasian Federal Military Captain Allans noted.

Alcasian Federation High Councilor Kerrans who had walked around the real-time three dimensional holographic map of the Alcasia Galaxy which was zoomed in on a closer view of the 25,000 light-year stretch of space comprising the northern edge of the Alkens Sectors, Berars Sectors, Nerrans Sectors, Lerrabs Sectors, Peeras Sectors, Weesan Sectors, Linns Sectors, Wren Sectors, and Cellsas Sectors to the video audio communication screen where Alcasian Federal Military Ensign Jack Kattern was seated.
