  "Commander Errens, we just got a radar signature  of an unknown unit. When we noticed it, it had just beaten what appears to be an Awassha." Andrews said. Errens looked to the screen that held  his face.

  "What? So there's  someone else capable of fighting the Seraphim? Well, that's all the better! ...huh? What's this?" Errens replied, looking to his map. There was a radar blip of an air unit flying towards the base from the North. As he watched, it dropped another unit blip, this time a ground unit. Errens set a squad of Mech marines to scout the unidentified  machine. The air unit flew away, leaving  the unknown unit alone.  Suddenely, a communication request from said unknown unit popped in. He hesitated, but answered.

  "Hello, I am The last Commander of the ARM Rebellion. Who are you?" A voice asked as a human face appeared on the screen. Errens looked at him skeptically.

  "I am Commander Errens of the United Earth Federation. State your buisness." Errens replied, staring into the other commander's eyes.

  "I have come seeking an Alliance. The ARM  Rebellion has been fighting our enemies, The CORE,  for 4,000 years." This caused Errens to jump. As the ARM continued to speak, Errens stopped listening and was pondering over the prospect.

4,000 years?! How have we not heard of  these guys?!

  ".... and so, we wish to form an alliance with your faction, and defeat the CORE Empire. Will you accept our request?" The Commander finished. Errens blinked back to the screen.

  "Ah, yes. Sure, why not. We need all the help we can get against the  Seraphim, and can also aid you in your problems. Right now though, we are preparing for an enemy attack. Even now, the Seraphim have naval ships moving across the ocean, with many air transports moving in behind them, guarded by Air Superiority Fighters." Errens replied. Somehow, the ARM Commander managed to tilt his ACU's head.

  "Seraphim? Air Superiority Fighters? I do not know what these are, but I can lend my assistance in the form of Kbots, Vehicles, and some Air units. Once I reach the sea I can supply you with Naval forces. Perhaps we can share our technology after this battle. But for now, I shall head to the ocean to prepare. I take it you have a defence force there?" He asked, running off a list of his forces. In all honesty, Errens did not know what the Kbots were. So, he ignored the list and nodded.

  "Yeah. We set up a large Naval facility  that is even now mass-producing  Battleships, Destroyers, Cruisers,  and Submarines. If you'd  like I can escort you there." Errens answered, moving his ACU to head towards the sea. The ARM Commander nodded, and followed Errens as they marched towards  the Naval Facility. The ARM Commander  quickly ordered a good half of his Air units to meet him there. This list included: Brawlers,  Pheonix', Hawks, and Lancets.

Champion Selena's ACU

  As Selena walked through the corridors of her Armoured Command Unit, she thought back to the conversation with the ARM Commander.

Errens is a fool. This Arm guy is clearly going to betray us. Errens is a weak fool. He shouldn't  be the one leading this operation, it should be me.

  Selena looked back to the last part of that thought. Why the hell had she thought that?  She knew that Errens was a good Commander. He had fought hard and long in the Seraphim War, and had actually managed to beat some of the rotten bastards before the hero who finally stopped them. So where did that thought come from?

   As Selena walked on, lost in thought, a Cold, evil laughter that could not be heard, but could freeze the heart of even the greatest commander  resounded behind her.

Orbit Above Equestria.

  As Serrus pondered the latest news from the planet below the warning claxon  sounded. He sat up right in his throne, looking around.

  "Commander!  The Chaos fleet is about to get into firing range! What are your orders?" One of the Sensory captains asked.  Serrus sighed, then activated his vox link with the other Captains in the fleet, as well as the rest of his ship.

  "This is Captain Serrus! The heretic Scum are about to get into firing range! Prepare your weapons! Get boarding Torpedoes  ready! The Emperor  Protects!" He boomed into the vox. He then closed it, and pulled out a necklace with  the  Aquila of the Imperium strapped to it. He lowered his head and made a quick prayer.

  "O Eternal God Emperor; who alone spreadest out the heavens and rulest the raging of the warp;

Who hast compassed the void with bounds until day and night come to an end;

Be pleased to receive into thy Almighty and most gracious protection the souls of thy servants and the fleet in which we serve;

Preserve us from the dangers of the void, and from the violence of the enemy;

That we may be a safeguard unto our fellow man and his dominions, and a security for such as pass through the void upon their lawful occasions;

That the inhabitants of our Imperium may serve thee, our Savior and that we may return in triumph with the fruits of our labours;

And with a thankful remembrance of they mercies to praise and glorify thy Holy Name;

Through thine eternal rule;

Amen."

Somewhere  in an alternate universe, The God Emperor spoke his annoyance   of someone worshipping him like the UltraSmurfs.

As the fleet got into firing positions,  Serrus grasped his throne in a tight grip, hoping that the Emperor heard his prayer.

  Then the battle started.

  Lance fire flew from everywhere, and Thunderhawks  flew about the Void, engaged in combat with enemy Thunderhawks. The bigger vessels fired salves of Lance fire, as well as a few Warheads, straight into their opponents.  Two Dauntless class ships were destroyed in a battle against  an enemy vessel, but not before they landed a large amount of damage and twenty or so Boarding Torpedoes. Serrus sent a silent prayer to those in the two ships, hoping that their souls go to the Emperor. Suddenely, a warning shot up.

  "Enemy boarding Torpedoes detected!" A voice rang out.

   "Destroy them! Don't let them land!" Serrus ordered, then switched to a vox that connected with the remaining Astartes aboard his vessel.

  "Enemy Boarding Torpedoes  have been detected.  Be ready to fight them off." He told them, then cut the link and looked back to the battle. Suddenely, another voice rang out.

  "Enemy drop pods detected heading towards the planet!" It said.

  "Shoot them down! Kill as many of them as you can!" Serrus shot out, knowing that the Space Marines  below would be able to despatch  them.

  "But sir, if we don't focus fire on the Torpedoes, we could get boarded! We have to choose one or the other!" Someone said. Serrus gritted his teeth. The Thunderhawks were too from away to  intercept them, and the other ships were engaged in combat. He sighed.

  "Target the boarding torpedoes." He ordered.

Blood Angels Command post, Canterlot.

"Sir! Enemy drop pods are descending from orbit!" A vox relay soldier shouted.

  "Prepare for battle then." The commander replied. Celestia and Luna merely watched as they formulated battle plans to combat the invaders. They felt useless.
