The Fight for Creation: Book 02 - Scout Warrior by Saxon Andrew Read Free Book Online

of the troop carriers were gone and only twenty thousand warriors were still on the planet. Five thousand warships were getting ready to teleport back to the Realm. The Swarm had been stopped, but there was a heavy price paid by the inhabitants. A third of them died in the initial invasion and many were still in shock from the deadly stings of the Swarm Warriors.
    “Are you planning to do anything here?”
    The Grogat fleet commander looked over at his weapons controller and then looked back at the screen, ignoring his question. The Controller wanted to kill the Commander but knew he stood no chance against the massive leader. He bit his tongue and stayed silent. Six hundred Realm Warships jumped out and the Commander leaned forward and looked closely at the remaining ships on the display and smiled. None of them were the advanced ships that fought like demons. “Activate the suppression field.”
    The Weapons Controller smiled, “At last, an attack to test the new weapons.”
    The ten thousand Grogat ships accelerated toward the distant planet. They remained behind their invisibility screens and were not found by normal scans.

    “Sir, the Defiant has reported problems teleporting out.” The Communications Officer looked at her board and said, “Now I have four other ships reporting their teleport systems are not working.”
    Commodore Kel looked over at his Drive Officer, “Check it!”
    “It’s not functioning, Sir.”
    Kel hit the fleet frequency, “Battle stations; All ships to Battle stations. Move out and assume a defensive position. There is a teleportation suppression field around us and we’ll have to use standard thrusters.” Kel turned to Communications, “Get a message out to fleet.”

    The Grogat Admiral tilted his head left then back; no one could accuse the White Ships of being stupid. He looked over his shoulder, “Change to attack profile.”
    The Weapons controller sent the message out to the Grogat ships charging in on the planet. They switched to standard force fields from the energy guzzling camouflage screens. He heard the Fleet Commander order, “Hold formation and charge all weapons.”
    The Grogat Fleet charged the new beam that was located on the bow of their ships. The entire front third of the Grogat ships suddenly looked like they were on fire.

    “Sir, we have ten thousand Grogat Ships moving in on the planet. They appear to be a ship type that is not in our database.”
    Kel looked at his display and saw the brightly glowing bows of the incoming ships and knew they were here to trial that new ship. If that beam could penetrate their force fields, it was suicide to meet twice their number head on. Kel hit his board, “All ships will scatter and attack any target of opportunity. On my Command, scatter in pattern Delta, Bravo. Now!”
    The four thousand Bristone Ships accelerated away from the planet and to the sides of the incoming ships.
    The Grogat Commander sat forward and watched the White Ships suddenly scatter to the sides of his fleet. “You know what to do. Designate your pair’s target and implement the attack.”
    The Bristone Main Battleship Zord Claws saw two of the Grogat ships turn and move toward them. Captain Grant ordered, “Move to 230 degrees and fire as we pass.”
    The mile long battleship turned broadside to the incoming Grogat and fired its nine main beams. Seven of them hit the closest Grogat ship and Grant saw the force field around it dim. “Hit that ship again!”
    The Grogat ship was hit by a full spread of nine main beams and a spread of heavy missiles. It shrugged off the beams but six of the twenty missiles made it through. The Grogat ship exploded, but not before its partner fired on Zord Claws with the new beam and blew the ship in half. Grant hit the button over his head and sixty stealth probes went out of the ship at the bow and tail. The Grogat fired again and the Zord Claws exploded into a massive cloud
