Rising

///July 18th, 2222\\\

I walked into the new advanced holding cell. A super conductor material that used a floating platform and had power dampers in the walls. It was an all grey room with no visible cameras, but they were there.

"I heard your only gonna talk to me, high demands for a prisoner," I said.

"But yet here you are, and I am no prisoner; prisoner implies im here against my will," He said.

"Then why are you here," I ordered.

"My people have truly turned their backs on our ancient ways, perverting it and using fear tactics rather than honor, I submit myself to your service, so that I may dismantle their empire and rebuild it in it's true form," He said. I sat and thought for a bit.

"Ok, we'll give you a trial run if a battle occurs, but for now you'll be tested and contained," I said. He put his hands together and bowed. A guard walked in and injected the strange ninja with a horse tranquilizer. When I walked out I took a second to admire my creation. I of I had tripled its size in the past 9 years and we were now light years ahead scientifically in almost all fields. People rushed around holding clipboards, talking, arguing, wearing lab coats and goggles and rushing to what I could only assume was a lab or a meeting. 8000 people. It was really quite impressive. Then my arm screen turned on and flashed red. I ran to my ship. My boots clacked on the linoleum floor as I pushed through crowds towards the hangar. I rushed across the large empty room. I nodded to the workers who went into action as I leapt up on to the platform wing, not letting it go down. The door spun open and I rushed into the seat as the bay door opened and the latches released. The engines roared and the ship lurched up, the front tipping forward slightly as the thrust came from the back. The thrusters shifted. I saw the alcubierre drive activated and in a second I was warping through space. I checked the logs. Ulinikar. The planet home to the Uliniir, or in their tongue "children of greatness." Ulinikar is a god in their pantheon. Specifically he was the god of metal, honor and earth. They go together because the planet orbits a blue sun, it emits mostly blue light. The chlorophyll pigment is the color gold. This is how it got the nickname, Planet of Gold. I called the institute.

"Get me back up on 3-ΟΛθ VIII, bring the Ninja."

The Uliniir are a race of bird humanoids with two huge wings on their upper backs covered in gold, silver and white feathers and two smaller one on the low back of the same color. Their feet were small and had 4 toes (not including a back one for support which had light colored small talons on them. Their arms had two thumbs and 3 fingers with retractable claws. Ships soon appeared. I got a radio signal on the ship verifying people and the ship. I sent the radio signal to move. We shot toward the distress beacon. My ship shot through aluminum as a plane splintered into tiny bits and exploded as I barreled through the atmosphere.

"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!" I shouted to the air. An alarm blarred as the ship shook and I was tossed down. Missile. I set the ship to hide in orbit. I jumped out of the ship. I took note of the distance and blasted out gravity waves slowing the fall and sending enemies flying. This was a battle. Time to kill. Black smoke with green light wrapped around my arm forming into the two tipped, curved blade I knew. I blasted forward, and cut through half a soldiers throat. Then spun around and blasted forward cutting a man in half. I felt the whites of my eyes go black and my brown eyes turn a pale green as energy filled me. I stabbed a man who ran at me and absorbed his life energy as two bullets entered my shoulder. The man's skin turned white and his eyes turned to dust and white energy blasted over shoulder and the wound disappeared. I formed a knife of light and tossed one into one man who shot and I zapped to the second one slicing his throat. Blood poured out his throat like a waterfall as he dropped face first. Blood pooled and overpowered the gold grass. I looked over and watched Ninja Z spin the photokatana at light speed and cut into a soldier. Thankfully an enemy soldier. Cringe. Cringe soldiers fell like wheat before us. The battle was soon over. My black crystal blade was now reflective and red. Blood dripped from the tip as I held it relaxed, tip to ground. I saw my soldiers get into line as ships dropped to the planet. The Uliniir clapped and cheered as us and our soldiers walked to ships and flew away. I dismissed my bloody blade and probably a fourth of a gallon of blood dropped to the floor of my ship. Shit, Ill have to get that cleaned up soon. Smoke zipped around me.

"Sean, something is coming, not sure what. I can feel parts of the future," Akaalist said. Fuckin shit.
