As he sat down, he let out a small sigh. The various faction were just not going to give up on each other. With the Minmatar pushing deep into Amarr space and the Gallente being beaten back by the Caldari. It was all going to hell. To make the New Eden even worse was the null-sec alliances. There are apparent reports of a huge war in the 'Delve' region just to the north. It was not really his concern, but it made him wonder if there was anything left of 'peace' in the world.

Jack sat down and flicked onto the CONCORD news channel. Same old stuff, nothing new. Empires fighting each other, people being abducted by Sansha's nation, as well as the usual adverts for people selling ships, weapons, modules etc. But a new report caught his attention.

"A newly discovered star system?" he whispered to himself.

"Just south of here near...hmm...i might want to check that out" he thought to himself.

Life as part of the militia can get tough sometimes. Although he loved fighting for a as noble and just as the Federation, he sometimes grew weary of it all.

CONCORD had declared the new system 'ready for investigation by capsuleers'.

Jack smiled to himself as he got up and walked to the end of the hand rails up the the docking area. From there he could choose from a large range of ships. Jack is a capsuleer. An immortal spaceship pilot with 2/3 years of experience with the Federation Navy. He had joined the Gallente militia as soon as he graduated from the advance military pilot course during his first weeks of ascending to 'capsuleerhood'.

He quickly scanned through his list of ships, ranging from simple frigates to a Thanatos carrier that he had spent months training and missioning for. It was his first capital ship and his pride and joy. But he won't be needing that today. Instead he chose his Imicus. A simple frigate fitted with scan probes and a cloak. He placed himself into his pod, and plugged the wires into the special socket in the back of his head. As he switched the systems on, the door closed and he felt his subconscious take control of the basic ship function. He could feel the cloak , scan probe launcher and the other various modules the ship had been fitted with. Pleased that everything was working, he hit the 'set destination' button and proceeded to undock from the station he was in

The system he wanted was only about 7 jumps away, but he lived in low sec. All the solar system in New Eden has a security number given to them by CONCORD. 1.0-0.5 is high sec, where it is usually quite safe to go about your business. Anyone that attacked another person without good reason was instantaneously destroyed by CONCORD. 0.4-0.1 is considered low sec, still under empire rule and the eye of CONCORD. But here was a much more dangerous place. You could attack anyone or get attacked by anyone and the aggressor would only lose some security status (A status you must above -0.1 if the pilot wants to enter a high security system) and sentry guns would open fire if the aggressor had a global criminal countdown.

The area jack was heading through ranged from 0.3-0.1 security status system. So he had to be careful or avoid pilots of enemy militia's and the pirates that roamed the low sec regions of New Eden.

After carefully picking his way through the systems (and narrowly avoid getting blow up by a pirate gate camp) he made it to the mystery system. CONCORD had not yet given the system a proper name as it was still under review. So the system was dubbed 'UL89-KH'. Just like all null sec systems. The new system had an unknown security status for the time being, but you were relived to see a CONCORD BS outside of the gate.

Jack jumps through without any problems and sets his ships computer for what appears to be the only planet in the system. This planet only had a single moon as well. Even Sol, the supposed birth place of humanity had several planets and lots of moons. There was obviously something irregular here. Never the less, he proceeds to warp to the planet.

Luna walked calmly into her room, lest she give away her real feeling to the guards around her. Today was a day same as any other. Yet she could feel something....unusual. Something she had never felt before. It was like there was something else present besides her, even though the room was empty. She sighs and puts the feeling to the back of her mind for a while. The sun was setting and she needed to bring her beautiful night once more upon her home. She walked onto her balcony, closed her eyes and channeled her power through her horn. The moon began to move along its steady course into the night sky. With her duty done, she walked back into her room and quietly slumped onto her bed, eager to try and find out what this annoying feeling was.

Jack ship came to rest next to the 'soon to be customs office' that was in orbit around the planet. During his trip, he had be able to acquire some new information on this mystery planet. The reports that came through said that the planet was inhabited by a very large range of creatures. And that the most predominant were-

"Ponies?...of all life that exists in the universe, why ponies?"

Jack had been getting his information from a fellow corp mate that had woken up recently. His name was jay and he had been jack's friend since they graduated to become capsuleers.

"I'm not sure why self to be quite honest. But the system is very strange...it makes me feel like i'm in a worm hole or something."

"What makes you think that" jack asked curiously.

"Well, it has a different effect on ship systems, like there is something affecting the integrity of the entire system" Jay stated.

"I'm not entirely sure what you...you...what the hell??!" Jack shouted down the channel.

"Jack? Are you ok? Jack?!" Jay shouted but it was in vain, as jay was completely captivated by what he saw in front of him. Jack focused his camera drones a little more and saw that the moon was moving, but not slowly like he or anyone else would expect, but rather in large chucks. The moon its self even seem to glow a little bit, a dark blue aura was surrounding the the moon as it moved. Then quickly as it appeared, it disappeared leaving him completely awestruck.

"Jack! Come you idiot...just don't leave me there in a middle of a sentence' Jay grumbled over the channel.

"S-Sorry Jay but...but..." he trailed off yet again.

"But what? Your not making any sense." Jay was starting to get a little frustrated.

Jack mentally slapped himself, and thought about what he saw.

"Jay, your defiantly right. There is something really weird in this system. I just saw the systems only moon glow and move like a couple hundred Km...." as he trailed off yet again.

"Ok, this is getting really weird. What do you think we should do?" He asked.

Jack thought for a moment and came up with a plan, it was a crude plan, but a plan none the less.

"Alright, this is what i think we should do. I'm going to go off and make a safe spot in system. I'l bookmark it and head back to station. In the mean time, can you and Andy get some of those drop suits and pods together?"

"Your not seriously thinking of landing on the planet are you? We have no idea whats down there, initial reports barely told us anything." But jay could not help the small smile creeping onto his face. First humans to touch down on an undiscovered world inhabited by 'supposed' sentient equines. Now offering no resistance, he let his smile grow.

"Alright, il talk to Andy about getting us some gear. But how do you suppose we make contact?"

"Well, the CONCORD says that the planet has the same atmosphere composition as a lot of other 'garden' worlds. So we can breath normally down there without gear. Grab a few assault rifles though and make sure that the suits shields are strong, i want us to be well protected in case we come across anything hostile. We shall be ambassadors on behalf of the Gallente Federation" He finished with a smile.

"Okay...but how do we get down there." Jay inquired.

"Simple" Jack replied.
"We will get Andy to light a cyno in system and bring my carrier in. That way we can drop anything we might need from orbit. Including ourselves."

"Can Andy even fly a Thanatos?" He asked warily.

"I know he can, he flies them with a bloody triage module." Jack laughing as he finished.

"Alright, i'l come with you. But if we get killed your buying me a beer and a new set of +3's" Jay smirked.

"Fine, suit up and i'l make the safe spot and get the carrier ready. Don't forget to tell Andy or this won't work."

They both cut the channel and set about their respective jobs. Both wondering what they will find when they get to the surface. Jack could barely contain his excitement. He was looking forward to this.
