It Begins
In a lot of ways, Ixtal-3 was at the back-end of the Kree Empire. It was common for officers at odds with command to be reassigned the planet's small fleet. Ixtal-3 had little in the way of resources. It's only real value was as a watchpoint in case the neighboring Skrulls made a push. In which case the planet would be overrun quick, but not before a warning would be given out to Command.

Mer-Vas grumbled at yet another day of meaningless work. Once he had led soldiers into battle! Now he was here..all because a general's daughter had some kind of fixation on him. He was about to call on in for the latest report, which he no doubt believed would be the same as always, an alarm came in. "What's happening!?"

"Something's breached the perimeter, sir!" came Lieutenant Her-Va from Station-34.

"Skrulls!?"

"Unknown sir, but they're coming in fa-!" The comm suddenly cut out.

At the satellite already!? He quickly put in a call to command, only to pick up static. "All troops, prepare for-!" Shots hit the base, the force driving Mer-Vas to the ground. He could hear fighting down the hall. He went to move before seeing a Kree soldier fall back into view, stained with blood. An armored figure walked into sight. Mer-Vas readied his weapon and fired on the intruder. The first two shots seemed to be repelled by some kind of miniature force-field, but the third did some damage as the invader fell back against the wall. However, no sooner had this one fallen then two more appeared, one firing a series of shots, driving him agonizingly to the floor. He tried to move, but could barely shift as the armored figures came by.

"This is Command! Come in Ixtal-3! What's happening!?"

One of the armored figures went over to the comm, easily working the Kree equipment. "We are coming, cousin. We are coming to take back what is ours. Enjoy your power while it lasts." The second turned to the fallen Mer-Vas and raised his weapon. The last thought the soldier had before he died was why the invaders spoke Ancient Kree?

	"Celestial experiments?" The Kree said after a bit. "You mean Eternals and Deviants? Impossible," he said, shaking his head. "The Deviants died out long ago, and only Ultimus of the Starforce remains among the Eternals." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We hope they died out long ago," Azura said. "Even if we're dealing with time traveling Kree, kree deviants, or something else, it's not going to be pretty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am Groot!" Groot called in alarm, pointing behind them. In the distance there was a group of armored figures racing away, one carrying another over its shoulder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This is more like it," Azura said and took off racing after the retreating figures. Thankfully she had longer legs and would reach them before Red. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iason moves quickly, lifting off and giving chase, not daring to fire anything for risk of hurting someone they'd rather have protected. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Red unsubspaced his rocket-board, zipping ahead of the pack, a large gun in his hands. "Oh boy!" he cackled. "Is being targets!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Alex just sighs, takes a moment to appreciate those longer legs moving at full speed, and opens up his backpack. Stock, scope, barrel. He lays down with a long range rifle at the ready, and waits for his team to give him an opening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eliza has her side arm in her hands quickly. She is lining up a shot ready to start taking pot shots if she can. She's not just going to stand around after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	One of the soldiers curses in their old Kree dialect, which likely won't be immediately translatable they start firing on their pursuers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Be eating this, scumbags!" Red yelled, firing his gun. The blast knocked him off his rocket-board, causing him to bounce on the ground a couple times before he rose, gun still in hand. "Now that is being good firing!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Azura yelled and used the time gem to speed herself up. Their shots slowed down and she was able to easily dodge them. She charged ahead and kept firing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Red's shot hits one of the retreating soldiers, sending him flying. However it'll be noted that while the armor's damaged, the man himself seemed fine as he managed to climb back to his feet. Their technology was advanced indeed.

One of the soldiers curses as Azura gets closer, translators may start to pick up words like "damn" and "alens". Twin blades of energy erupt from the soldier's gauntlets as he attempts to strike at Azura.

	When the aliens begin attacking - and show signs of getting up from taking fire, Iason dives, trying to draw fire himself, finally firing a concussive blast from his eyes towards the one that rose from Red's shot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Red fired again. "When I am shooting you, please be having the respect to be staying down!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Azura ducked the blows and drew Godslayer. So he wanted to play with swords. She took a swing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

No sooner had the one soldier gotten to his feet, he was knocked back down by Iason and Red's attacks. He groaned, still alive, but he wasn't getting up.

The alien's weapons were both advanced and durable, but even they were hard-pressed against Godslayer.

The remaining soldier placed what looked like a tile-sized cube on the ground, but quickly began to unroll and shift into a nasty-looking turret..and it was gearing to open fire.

	"What the hell is that?" Eliza wishes she had a scope for her gun to get a better idea of what it is. Looks nasty though so she starts to take shots at it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iason dives towards the turret to make himself the obvious target, and seeing if he can get in close. He trusts the others to handle the troops on the ground. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Groot grew further, extending his branches to try and reach the turret. It took pieces out of his elongated branches, but he was at least occupying it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Red pouted. "This is not turning out to be being the kind of day I was thinking it would." He scurried for cover. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Azura yelled and attacked the two in front of her with a frenzy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Yeah, those should do just fine. Briefly taking a moment to thank his mother for the TK, Alex aims, fires, and reloads three times in succession, brain working faster than hands would allow.

A standard explosive round goes after one leg of the turret's joints.

The next bullet releases a device with a magnetic lock, which adheres to one attacker's armor and begins to vibrate intensely. If you can't get through the armor, just shake whatever's inside it as hard as you can.

One of the ones coming up on Azura's ~~weaker~~ off-hand side gets a high voltage blast from a needle-shaped cartridge.

//Guardians, regroup at 1 o'clock from my position. Red and Iason, wide-spread concussive blasts on the enemies once your lines of fire are clear.//

	//Understood// Iason replies directly, diring tightly aimed heat blasts to provide cover for the others to regroup, conserving his energy for the area shot when everyone is out of the way. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It's not long before a large ship appears in the sky, clearly some kind of stealth technology. Something is said in the language of the aliens, who stop fighting immediately. Then some form of speaker is shown on the outside of the ship. "Can you primitives understand me?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
