Travel
The ship departs without problems, once it is a little distance from the planet it jumps to the surroundings of the black hole.
- OK, let's see if this thing works.
The anti - gravity drives work taking all the energy of the "jump system". And they start to approach the black hole without problems.
- Why these people wanted scape pods? It would be impossible to survive out there without the anti - gravity anyway.
Zacaro can't shake the feeling that they are being watched from the minute that they enter the black hole. Cannons and missiles are ready.
- Lets see, I can control the two front cannons. John, can you go to the two cannons of the tail? Deon, it may be time to wake up and take the cannons
of the midle of the ship. I won't try missiles since the black hole would pull them to much. PLease remember that the light or the anti - matter from
the cannons will get a bit off course also. You can choose between lazer, plasma and anti-matter when shooting.
- The sensors indicate something big approaching with a lot of other small things coming from it. I will make a run for the portal as soon as
possible, it seens to be behind the big thing.

"Big guns, Yes!" John said as he ran towards the rear cannon controls. The looked at the radar screen by the gun controls and spoted the thing that
Zarco was talking about. "daaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmnnnn, that shit is HUGE! Ummm, guys? I assume were to fire at will? Right?"
Ignore the signs, hide your head in the sand, as I sit and watch the light show with sad eyes.

Huge things
Yep, fire at will as soon as we know what it is. Remember that there are huge herbivorous things in the universe and whatever it is, is big and
organic. The little things are made basically of energy, I wonder how can they move here without problem.
..............
a few minutes latter:
................
Wait a minute ... so close to the portal gravity is almost bearable, as if the energy needed to create it came from the very high concentration of
mass close to it.
That thing IS the black hole!!! It is the guardian of the portal and at the same time the portal itself!!! If we could destroy that, the portal would
collapse, but it is made of matter so concentrated that it is impossible to destroy!!! At least not with our puny anti-mater weapons.
The energy little things are approaching!!! Don't let them get close to our anti-gravity engines or we would be pulled right to the big monster!!!
Its quite possible that they feed on energy, even vital energy (souls), so, use the anti-mater. The ship can use our highly energetic surroundings to
produce anti-mater, so, don't worry about amunition. I will just have to lower the shields from time to time to recharge.
The little things start to fire energy beans and Zacaro is too busy avoiding most of them to be able to shoot very well, the computer is too busy
also, so, it's mostly up to the cannons at the midle and the back (the cannons at the midle can shoot to the front also).

Deon came out of his catatonic state with a jolt and realized that the fight was already starting. "Damnit, I told them to wake me up when we got to
the event horizon. The guardians still asleep. Good. This shouldn't be too much trouble." Deon focused his energy around the ship, and the
beings of energy stopped for a moment, and then retreated. "ZARACO, GET OFF YOUR GUNS AND HIT THE ENGINE. FULL THROTAL." Deon teleported to the
control in time to see Zaraco hit the 'gas'.
"The guardian will take care of the imps out there, I was expecting a bigger welcoming commitie then this. And yes, the guardian is a sentient
quantum black-hole. I've hidden us from it, but don't try to fight it. It was created by the entire race of UR lords at the height of their power,
and I doubt anything in existance other then all the elder gods, or the Ur-lords themselves could win that fight. Just get through that portal,
quickly.

Exodus
The ship passed through the portal as the last of the daeamons dissapeared. What they saw on the other side was a war of epic proportions. They were
around seven hundred miles behind the front lines, and below them lay countless dragons, devils, demons, and other nefarious creatures of the abyss.
"We're gonna die now, aren't we?" said John. "Probably, if we can't make it into Ur-lord territory, there's no way we'll survive. I'm
cloaking us right now. Zaraco, take us to the front lines. Don't go more then 500,000 mph though. Any faster and our energy signature will be
picked up. I'm related to these people, they'll recodnize me, and maybe they won't kill us..."
------------------------------------------------------
Lt. Commander Vatakin was tired, cold, hungry, and about as pissed off as the rest of the army fighting this hopeless war. And now they had the
nerve, after four straight days of holding the line against the best the Legions of the abyss had to offer, to tell him that he was going to scout a
discrepancy far behind enemy lines, right now, and that he couldn't shower, shave, or eat. So this is what being indispensible really meant. He
called is squad and told them to meet him with a Z5-23 with stealth capability. He wasn't authorized to take it, but right now that didn't matter.
Tolkien could override the command, and Jonin would make sure nothing happened afterwards. After all, they needed him.
1 hour later...
"Tolkien, scan that thing." The cyborg dressed like something out of a SCI-FI novel looked towards the horizon. "Sir, I can't, somethings
blocking me, and it's strong as... as one of the Old Ones sir. Haven't seen anything like this since that demon prince canabolized two others and
named himself king. There's immense power readings radiating off of that thing, and from several sources inside. If their on the wrong side, we
need to call in reinforcements."
"It's a ship, so it's carrying people. Contact them Jonin." A robed man with obisien skin and glowing blue eyes reached into the speeding vessal
with his mind and touched the one responsibe for Tolkiens troubles. A moment later he came out of his trance. "Their from the old worlds sir... and
one of them is a direct desendant of Belgerath! Their worlds are going to be in the same situation as we are in 15 years, unless the portal is closed
or an Old One is found. But they left a thousand years ago sir. No one knows where they are now."
"We need all the help we can get Jonin. I'll tell the border guard to let them pass, and tell them to meet me in the capital. If these people are
as strong as you say, they might be able to kill that usurping "King." With him gone, the legions will be in dissaray, and we can take them. Stop
staring people, lets go, MOVE MOVE MOVE..."
---------------------------------
"People, I just talked with one of them, we have a ways to go, but we're clear. We're supposed to head for the capital, and they said we'd know
it when we see it." The Falcon rocked visiously as something pounded against it's hull. "Fuck, we're spotted, Zaraco, keep driving, and be on
the lookout for anything else. I'm going to re-weave the cloaking spell. John, get that thing off our hull, we can't afford to be spotted by
anything else. Break." Deon's aura flared up as he began to rework the spell...

Well
- Do you want me to launch an atomic missile to cover us? I have only one.
[even while talking Zacaro is piloting the ship, making the weapons ready and avoiding incoming objects]

NO!!!
Zaraco's comment broke Deon's concentration, hurling him back into his body. "NO!!! Under no circumstances launch that thing. It might not kill
the damn things, and it'd show every Demon in a million mile radius where we are. Exactly. I don't think we want to do that... wait. Does it have
a remote timer? Cause if we launch it going the oposite way, and have it go off a few minutes from now, we can draw the demons off the front lines.
Lets do it." Deon closes his eyes before a response can come, and gets back to working his spell.

Bum
Zacaro simply launches an atomic missile with a small force field and, obviously, a timer.
This missile will move slower at first, than very, very fast and hit the ground (or anything that is unlucky enough) more than 10 Km from where the
ship is now (more than a 100 km from where the ship will be by than) and will explode ONLY two seconds after this. The forced field will drop less
than 1 microsecond before the bomb explodes and well, lets just say that the bomb has enough security devices to avoid it from being disarmed. This
missile was made to hit a meteor and explode it only when needed to create problems to an enemy ship (or planet). For more destructive uses the ship
has the anti-mater cannons (do you like big guns?).
- OK, missile launched. Lets get out of here fast.

KA-BOOM!!!!
Zarcaro's bomb expoaded with a hurrendous amount of force that it rocked the Falcon for several seconds. It felt like a earthquake registering
128723748 on the ricter scale occured, and the ship was in the epicenter.
"DAMN Zarcaro! How much power could one fucking bomb really have!?!"John shouted, after the ship stoped rocking. "At least I don't have to go
outside and fight that thing on the side of the ship."
Knock Knock KNOCK
"Gods damnit!"
"I'll get the door for you John." Zarcaro said, almost smiling as he pressed a button and realesed a small hatch on the roof of the Falcon. "Have
fun"
"Yeah, fun. Why don't you get your blue glowing ass out there?"
"I'm busy keeping the ship from slamming into the ground, killing us all. Well, killing you two."
"Excuses excuses" John said as he leapt out of the ship.
Using his power, John magnitzed his flying disks as to walk on the Falcon with ease. He heard the knocking comming from the tail end of the ship. He
walked over and peered over the side to see a large reptialing demon with what looked like small plates of stone for skin. It's fists where way too
big for the demon to even move, but nobody told the demon that. It looked as if it almost broke through the hull of the ship, if John was going to
act, it had to be now.
"John, get out there and take care of that thing. MY ASS! That thing is baddass big and has a BADASS powerlevel! Oh well, jobs a job..."
John stood up and shouted.
"Hey you ugly motherfuka, up here!"
The demon did't even respond.
"Hey, HHHHEEEEEYYYYY!!! Goddamn, what does it take to get noticed 'round here!?! HEY!"
The demon looked up, shock his head, and started pounding again.
"Oh Hell no, you did not just shake your fucking head at me you ugly peace of shit."
John powered up.
He looked down at the demon again.
John powered up again, tranforming his hair to grey.
The demon looked up at him.
"That right mother fucker, you better take notice now."
The demon laughed.
It.
Laughed.
"puny weakling want take on ooloth?"
John squinted his eyes.
"weakling, my powerleavel is close to a million in this state, and you call me a weakling?"
The demon nodded
"Well, let's kick it up a notch."
John focused his energy into the stone he wore around his neck. In ture the stone magnified the energy 100 times that, and sent it back into John. An
Amazing flash lit up the sky. It faded and John had transformed once again.
Johns eyes radiated light blue, much like zarcaro's. His hair, once light gray seemed almost white, and was longer then before. Muscles bulged out
from under his cloathing, and a dark purple aura surrounded him. His voice was much deeper then before and held a menising quality to it.
"Is this good enough for you."
The demon replied
"me like. Maybe good fight."
"Yeah. I don't do this often, you should feel privilaged."
John leaped off the ship's hull and flew towards the demon at tremendous speed. It appeared like he dissappered and appeared again right before the
demon to normal eyes. Joh through a hard right hook at the demons face. The blow had the force of a train going 1,000 mph. The momentum alone should
of knocked the demon miles away from the ship.
But the demon didn't move.
It didn't even budge.
"Me like, my turn now."
The demon drew back for a punch, but John backed off 100 feet before the demon could swing. Unshaken by the demon's power, John charged up and energy
blast.
"AHHHH, FINAL BLAST!"
A beam containing John's enhanced ki and a powerful bolt of electricity connected directly with the demon's skull. A bright flash surrounded the
demon's head, then drew back in with a loud thunderclap. John smiled.
So did the demon.
"Why you smile weak one?"
"I know something you don't"
"oh, what is that?"
"Oh, what happens next."
The demon exploded.
After the energy blast failed to disenegrate the demon, John forced HIS energy into the demon's body. There, he used a weak psychic connection with
the demon's own energy to force his energy inside the demon to merege with the demon's own energy. Since the human ki and demon ki could not really
merge with eachother the energy inside the demon became highly unstable and BOOM.
"Astral nitro."
John walked back into the ship and into the cockpit. Deon was still in his trance, and Zarcaro was still piolting the ship. Zarcaro turned around.
"Wow John, you look diffrent after every battle."
John then powered down to his normal state and collapsed on the floor.
"Not used to going that far, I need to rest now." He weakly said, then he passed out.
Ignore the signs, hide your head in the sand, as I sit and watch the light show with sad eyes.

Driving
- Dear passengers, due to a little problem with the timer of an atomic missile we were closer than I wanted from the explosion. Also, due to a
necessary, but messy fight, we are calling more attention than I would like.
- I can't be blamed for the fact that a stupid tentacle thing decided to swallow the atomic missile, triggering the explosion a bit earlier than I
expected, but as Maquiavel used to say:
Some people complain that the circunstances made their failure, but they have to be blamed for not been able to adapt to the circunstances.
So, I will launch a set of fake images of the ship and will increase speed to the biggest value that I feel safe. Please get to the cannons and use
long range shots to take attention away from us.
And for any demon out there, a little final quote from Nelson Rodrigues (brasilian writter):
Fuck You.
[ Zacaro increases the speed of the ship to the maximum value that he thinks that Deon can hide, launches all his fake images and send missiles toexplode in many different places of the enemy lines, making as much havoc as possible]
- Gentleman, we are getting to the front lines. We have to hope that they won't shoot us.
- In case that we don't succeed I would like to say that I will be thinking on you during the milenia that I will spend in some demon's belly.
- This was your pilot speaking. Have a nice day and thank you for flying with us.

Front Lines
With the ship getting closer to the front lines the danger of being spotted by the enemy decreases since there are already a lot of energy tracks and
explosions coming from the batles bellow and around the ship.
Zacaro increases speed and in few seconds they are over a reasonably peaceful, quiet view.
- Now, lets locate the big city. It must be those towers at the horizon.

Hey guys, is everyone sleeping or outside reality?
We are getting close to a very well protected city and I register as undead.
Can someone wake up, please?

sorry for the wait
Deon's aura had been getting brighter and brighter as Zaraco flew the ship faster. Various missiles had their trajectories traced, and a giant field
of illusions had been brought in to hide a small uprising of slaves. A stasis pod placed around the civil war was the latest problem Deon was facing.
If only the fool would slow down. John wasn't consious enough to hide his aura, and cloaking material things was hard enough.
The fight with bhaal was nothing but luck. The psion was suprised it didn't last an hour, and it would have if Bhaal hadn't underestimated him.
They others didn't have a chance to see the true depth of bhaals power, and they probably didn't understand the extent of the power they'd
witnessed. Bhaal was the equivalent of a Lieutenant Captian, and there were things around them that made the demi-god seem like an angsty thirteen
year old boy. One of those things was currently investigating why the stasis field suddenly had a mobile failure, and Zaraco keeps speeding up...
"Zaraco... YOU IDIOT! You just couldn't help but fire MORE missiles. Don't you know about trajectories and ion trails? Did you think GODS were
that stupid? What you see around you is not a city, it's an illusion. Near perfect heat signatures and no reading on a spectrometer, so if you
scanned it, you'd have known it was a fake... sorry. You thought I had things under control. Just try to remember, I can't outsource too much
power hiding the ship, or the "gods" will pick up on the power and find the ship regardless. We're going to pass through the ass end of the stasis
field in five minutes, and god knows how many... things, know we're here. I'm going to need you to hit you're jump drives after I clear the way.
John's starting to come around, but he's pretty tired, and in no condition to fight whats out there. Hell, even if he was I don't know if it'd
matter. Kn'suhrot, I think it's him anyway, makes Bhaal look like a girlscout. Picture the biggest, baddest, and most terrifying midieval dragon
you can who's breath was soulfire, a fire that burned your existance from the pages of the multi-verse, and had slain two gods long before the fall
of the pantheon. Now picture a mortal bloodmage that's survived aeons by renewing his organs and who's skill in the Art is great even the gods
before their fall feared to meet her in battle. Now the two producing an offspring with the physical abilities of the dragon and the power of the
bloodmage, all packed into a six foot tall martial artist that's been fighting in wars since before The Fall, and you're just about there. Oh, and
every minute or so he can breathe that same legendary fire his father does... or did before he killed him. Even Demons are scared of him, and the
only reason he fights on their side is because the Ur Lords were his greatest challenge. Have you wet your pants yet? Good. I'm going to make an
astral construct of myself and challenge Kn'suhrot to a duel. Pure martial arts. While I'm getting my ass kicked, scan for the capital and go
there. If we don't get there that's fine. I'd rather be anywhere but here."
Deon closed his eyes and began gathering his remaining strength.
"Whatever happens to the astral construct will happen to me, so whatever happens I want to jump in thirty seconds. Even if I hadn't just fought
Bhaal, there'd be a pretty good chance that I'd have my ass handed too me. One minute left Zaraco. Make peace with your gods, cause these ones are
ready for war..."

Tracing?
Well, if they have trace devices that can follow missiles capable of jumping from a point to the other, they have my respect.
Since you are the boss (for now) I will jump in 30 seconds. Astral plane? There is a sword that you can bring to the astral in that box right behind
you. It is an old artifact, so, take care.
Heat? Absolute heat? The opposite of this is anti-mater, in some sense.
If the batle is near the ship, I will follow it and see what I can do. The ship will jump in 30 seconds and than it will jump again, and again, ...
untill I stop it, or we find the city. It is the best way to avoid being followed. Get ready for some nasty environments.
Is there lava under the earth here?

A shining white liquid flowed from Deon's mouth onto the floor, and began to take on the same porportions of his body.
"I'm not going to the astral plane Zacaro, I'm bringing the astral plane to me. It's not really going to be me out there, just an copy I have
control of. This way, if something goes wrong, and I lose the fight, I won't die. But you can't afford to screw up. I need you to keep something
from latching on and jumping with us. They can trace a jump only if they get to the point of entry in two seconds. I'll need you to clear the air,
and make sure everything that gets close enough to the ship dies. I don't know when Johns going to awaken, so it's up to you. Can you handle this?

OK
With four cannons? Easy, but I don't intend to jump right to our objective, I can give up to ten jumps clearing the space around after each one.
Zacaro put the cannons and missiles in manual control and started to clear the air around from the minions. After doing this (in 15 seconds) he went
out to check with his eyes for anything around. He found a big invisible shape (with a huge astral projection).
[ Humn, it won't attack as long as I don't show that I saw it. I can't hit it with my rays because they will eventually come back to me and flyingis out of question since the ship is going to jump in 10 seconds, so ... it is up to surprise and technology]
- Suddenly Zacaro commands all cannons of the ship to fire plasma at the monster, at once. The plasma doesn't hurt it, but since it was flying and
not ready for the blast it is pulled back by a kilometer, while at the same time, due to the extra propulsion, the ship increases speed and jumps. In
the second before the jump Zacaro jumps into the ship. The first jump sends them 1000 Km up from the position of the previous. The second jump sends
them into the earth (the ship can jump to the midle of a wall withough being damaged), third jump sends them to the insides of something nasty and
powerfull (to hide their power), fourth jump again to bellow the earth, fivth, to 10000 Km behind the stasis field, and so on, untill Zacaro can't
see pursuers in all areas of the spectrum, in the astral and can't feel any life form, or undead, over or around the ship before the jump. He even
eletrifies the external layer of the ship once, just to be sure that a fly is not around.
- Unfortunately I couldn't spare some time to help in the fight, I hope Deon is right.
- Zacaro looks at Deon scanning his aura.
- I just don't know why so much care, even a stupid fiend could have figured out that we are going to the city of their enemies. If they could get to
that city they would have done that already and if the people of the city didn't allow us to jump beyond the stasis field, we wouldn't be here. The
monsters probably could detect at least one of our jumps, withough being able to follow the rest, but since it was a large battery of jumps and in
some of them we ended up jumping a few seconds in time also, ... this will give them some trouble to trace.
- Actually, they probably detected something coming from the portal in the minute that we got here, since we didn't contact them, they figured out
that we were enemies, since we disappeared they started to trace in the direction of the frontline, since it was obvious that we were going there.
They found us a bit too late for their taste and we survived, but ... even a five year old child would have figured out that we are going to the city.
At least we did some havoc, they will be so mad with us that they will probably stop anything else to get us, and this is good for their other
enemies. Hell, I know that these guys can breed minions very fast, but we exploded the equivalent of five atomic bombs inside their area, in places
where they didn't expect it. It is impossible that we didn't destroy something important.
