Chapter 12 Party crashers?

  After the ship that Gray had stolen blew up, the Larcripters sent a team

  of high-ranked Mech pilots to investigate the location where the spatial shift

  had occurred. But unfortunately, there was nothing left of the ship because it

  had long since fallen into the ocean getting rid of all the evidence.

  It took a while, but the Larcripters finally gave up on their

  investigation as they did not know that Gray and Fantasma had secretly sent a

  message to their mortal enemies, the Okagos.

  Meanwhile, on the main Okago mother ship, a large commotion was brewing

  as they had received an anonymous tip indicating the location of an unknown

  planet that had rich Bio resources while their mortal enemies the Larcripters,

  were profiting off of it.

  “Supreme commander, we have received an anonymous tip from an unknown

  source in Larcriptin indicating that the Larcripters have found an abundant,

  biologically capable planet that they are harvesting and profiting off of.” One

  Okago told its commander.

  “Supreme commander, this could be an opportunity for us to get some more

  Bio matter as well as to stop them from growing stronger any further.” A

  different Okago spoke up.

  “But it could also be a trap from those ugly slimy bastards. They could

  be luring us into a trap again! Plus, the senders of the tip did not even

  bother to use our language, this is likely a trap.” Another Okago spoke up in

  protest.

  “Silence!” The supreme Okago shouted, and the whole room fell silent;

  all the Okagos lowered their heads in the direction of their supreme commander.

  “We shall not be fooled by that filthy race again. On the other hand,

  this could be an opportunity to get revenge on them even if this is a trap

  because we will know it’s a trap in advance. It might also not be a trap, and

  we could get rid of the Larcripters and harvest that planet's resources for

  ourselves.” The supreme Okago had a smug look on its ugly-looking reptilian

  face.

  “The supreme commander is wise!”

  “The supreme commander is wise!”

  “The supreme commander is wise!”

  All of the Okagos in the commander’s presence started shouting and

  bowing to the supreme commander as they praised it.

  “Enough!” The supreme commander shouted as the Okagos, in its presence,

  all bowed and went silent.

  “We shall head to the location mentioned in the message we received.

  Send some scout ships ahead of us to judge if the information we got is

  accurate. If it is, the main fleet will follow shortly after. If not and they

  are not the Larcripters and are stronger than us, then we will avoid them at

  all costs. But if they are the Larcripters or a weaker race we shall crush them

  and use their Bio matter to become stronger.” The supreme commander shared its

  wisdom with its minions, while wearing a smug look on its face.

  “Yes, supreme commander, we shall get to it right away!” One of the

  Okagos in the room bowed to its commander.

  Soon, a fleet of scout ships had left; they traveled through a wormhole

  and headed to Earth's solar system. It did not take them very long to get to

  the edge of the earth's solar system; they did a quick check to see how far

  they were and if any ambushes lay waiting for them. After finding nothing they

  headed in the earth’s direction, but their spatial disruption did not go

  unnoticed by the Larcripters.

  “What!? There are unknown ships headed in this direction?” The Queen

  Larcripter shouted at her ugly offspring, not that she looked any better

  herself.

  “Do not let them get any closer; send some warships and Mechs to

  intercept them and destroy them immediately. Don’t worry about harvesting their

  Bio matter as we have plenty already.” The big, fat, ugly queen said this while

  laying more Larcripter eggs in a slimy and dimly lit room.

  The Larcripters had gained a lot of biomatter from killing humans; they

  cut up their bodies and froze them for later use as biomatter or food. But the

  Larcripters loved the taste of raw human flesh more than anything, it was their

  new favorite. They would most likely store them up as high-grade Bio matter and

  sell their meat at an auction so they could get the best price for this

  delicious low-grade species.

  “We must not let others know about this valuable planet filled with Bio

  matter, so don’t let those ships get within scanning range to detect the Bio

  matter on our planet.” The ugly queen spat as slimy bile flowed from its mouth.

  “Yes, my queen.” A Larcripter replied in response to its queen’s order.

  “Also, have you found any information about who or what had stolen one

  of our ships?” The queen asked in a vicious tone.

  “No, my queen, we are still looking for the life form that did that;

  once we find any clues, we will alert you right away.” One of the Larcripters

  spoke up in response to its queen’s question.

  “Good, Now get out!” The queen ordered its ugly offspring to leave its

  chambers.

  “Yes, Your Majesty.” The Larcripters then turned around and dragged

  their slimy bodies out of the queen’s chambers to carry out her orders. The

  Larcripter ships soon headed in the direction of the unknown ships to intercept

  the unidentified intruders that were crashing in on their party.

  One of the Okagos scout ships had used long-range Bio matter detectors

  to see if there was any biological life on this so-called planet Earth. To

  their surprise, they had picked up on biological life; they had also identified

  the Larcripters in advance.

  “Sir, we have verified that all the information we received is correct.”

  An Okago said to its captain

  “Hmm… that’s interesting. It seems the Larcripters have not caught onto

  our ship's stealth systems and are preoccupied with the decoy ships we sent.”

  The captain Okago said as it was quite pleased with its actions to use some

  captured ships as bait to draw the attention of the Larcripters while they used

  their stealth systems to sneak their way into a safe distance to run their

  scans on earth and spy on their enemies.

  “We have enough information, head back out of this solar system and send

  it back to our main fleet.” The captain Okago ordered its henchmen.

  Not long after the Okagos had left the solar system and sent back their

  findings to their main fleet. On the other hand, the Larcripters had destroyed

  the suspicious ships that were headed in Earth's direction.

  “My queen, we have received a report that all of the unknown ships have

  been destroyed, and there are no survivors; we also did not detect them sending

  out any long-distance information that could jeopardize our location and

  operations.” A small Larcripter said this to its oversized queen.

  “Good work, reword those that were involved with some human Bio matter.”

  The ugly queen spoke with a pleased look on its ugly slimy face.

  “Yes, my queen.” The small Larcripter replied, it then left her presence

  to carry out her commands.

  News traveled fast as the information had reached the main Okago fleet.

  They did not waste any time and prepared themselves for their trip to Earth.

  After some time, they were ready, and their whole fleet had set course to the

  earth's Solar system.

  Once they had arrived, they had caught the Larcripters off guard and had

  launched a sneak attack on the unsuspecting Larcripters. The tides of war had

  shifted in the Okago's favor, but this only lasted for a short while as the

  Larcripters had called for more backup from Earth and their other fleets that

  were light years away from Earth. The battle between both sides had come to a

  stale, as both sides were evenly matched.

  The good thing is that because the battle was in space, the Earth was

  not as badly affected by it. The intense killing and harvesting of earth’s

  resources that the Larcripters were doing on earth had slowed down completely,

  but it did not stop as both the Okagos and the Larcripters would occasionally

  come down to earth to harvest biomatter to fund their war.

  The time Gray had bought for himself, and Earth would most probably be a

  few years, as most space battles would be slowly drawn out when it came to

  fighting for Bioresources. This was much better than the few weeks humanity had

  left to live if Gray did nothing.

  While the alien battle plaid, Gray was quickly raising his Bio levels in

  the farmhouse. He planned to wait for the Larcripters to forget about him as

  well as to see if his plan had succeeded. Which it did. Gray and Fantasma had

  saved the earth from its impending doom, only for a short time.
