Aurora, Wayward Pt. 03

The line dropped out and she looked over, "We have hundreds if not thousand attempting to contact us."

He sighed, "Give me a list of government ones to begin with."

She looked over, "The Pena governor is one of them."

He nodded, "Put them through."

He came face to face with the Governor and her cabinet. He nodded at her. "Governor, I hope you received my assurances with my message to the people at large."

She sighed, "I still do not know what to make of you."

He looked over, "Aurora, show her Astra's images of the invasion of this system up until just before her console work."

She nodded and displayed the information to them and they watched the thousands of ships enter the system with Trisna split open like a melon while it destroying Pena.

He looked at her, "An image of the future we are unable to stop even by returning here. Our only option is to get our people moved and we have 320 years to get that done before this event occurs. Before you ask, there is more to tell. This was to show you our mission is critical and we have the technology to make that happen.

I have shown I can send it to all the news agencies with our advanced communication systems. I sent an invitation to have a dialog but I will not have it behind closed doors and the public unaware of the dangers."

She looked at him, "You sound like you are above the law, Mr. Spartan."

He shook his head, which she did not understand. He sighed, "I am not above the law, I run on a very strict moral code that believes in justice for our people before any laws created by our people. Any laws that would protect the corrupt and guilty. That will be explained at the meeting.

After the meeting I will get an attorney to work with the System Courts to address several issues; from our claims for the colonies. Down to the system we surveyed. To the rights, rules, and regulations associated with the Home Guard.

Rules we cannot change as, in the future, they are hard and fast rules used by Home Guards of hundreds of Alien species. It might take 50-100 years for the government to see what we are doing is the right course of action.

We can play the long game but it will not stop us from taking the actions of getting the colony ships built. With us starting to move our people out of this system if they choose to listen and watch what we show them.

We had a survey crew of 6 survivors; the only Pennas left in this galaxy. I refuse to let history repeat itself. We have no way to stop what occurred in the video you saw. They are far more advanced than we are; than most of the races within this galaxy. They came from another galaxy.

We can help to ensure that what they do to this system will cost them a lot more than they bargained for. Ensure their level of destruction is complete or near-complete. Our founder is another matter. People need to understand who and what that statue represents."

She looked up, "I have a degree in ancient languages. She was being persecuted for a research center and they sentenced her to come here. Many like-minded individuals followed suit."

He pointed over, "Player the actual court proceedings. With no translation then."

Aurora nodded and sent it to her. She sat there and listened to the woman talked about what was going on and then murdering 3,000 hybrid children in her research center.

The governor looked shaken. He nodded, "It will be translated when we display those to the masses. The truth of what this colony was meant to be, what we have overcome, and our way forward to protect our future."

He stood up, "We have shown you the past and an image of this system's future. You can choose to believe it or not. Accept it or not. That does not mean I will not pass this information along to our entire society."

Rocan looked at the Governor, "Aurora is signed into the Home Guard but until the worlds agree to Home Guard laws, she is impulsive. Pena has not agreed to the Home Guard laws in this time period. Until each colony agrees to the Home Guard laws, she will be as whimsical as she needs to be to root out corruption and take care of alien invaders. Also, to prove her point in a conversation."

Aurora looked over, "My computing power is stronger and more capable than all of your computers in this system combined. The security is antiquated to me. Those are things we can help to correct over time. We plan to provide aid to all of the colonies.

We will restrict what technology we release until we have acceptance of our Home Guard laws or treaty if you will. We came to keep a balanced playing field. Until all systems have signed onto the rules, we will not advance your militaries.

We do not have the resources to create military vessels like his. This vessel is less a military vessel and more of one designed to support moving the people. At least internally.

Your ships will not withstand the strain of this ship's design. Rocan's ship was built in Sumar. The materials we brought back to handle the systems stresses will be needed in colony and colony support vessels. The other part of the reason is the material to make a lot of military vessels like his would require metals not found in this system.

We would have to bring it back from Sumar. That is also counterproductive as we are trying to move the people to Sumar and not build up your militaries for petty infighting when we need to be focused on leaving this system."

Rocan looked at the Governor, "The information you have seen will be shown again and again. We have a lot more to discuss. We have weapons but more importantly, we have the truth and solutions to help the people survive. You can try and block us from releasing this truth. In which case we will send it to the news feeds directly."

She sat back and thought for a moment before she spoke, "Given the level of technology you have, the images you have shown us, and the monster of a woman we have a statue to in the Founder's Square."

She sighed, "I am inclined to believe you are from the future. I will not work to block you from your efforts. I think it would be counterproductive to my administration to try and oppose this.

Then having to deal with every news reporter would just be chaos. I will send word that I have approved the use of the square for your discussion including bringing you shuttle to land in the square." She ended the call.

He then took on the calls from the other Governors and told him he had authorization from the Pena Governor for using the square for this discussion. He told them he had shown her parts of what they planned to display and she wanted to be on the right side of history in this case. The other Governors fell in line.

They wanted in on the action even if they were not on the planet. He explained that Aurora could contact them all and connect all of the communications for display within the Square off of the outer building walls.

Later she went down and added in multiple projectors to the ship. Then built a small portable shield generator in case of snipers. She would carry that to cover the trio once they moved away from the ship. She ensured it had enhanced capabilities, just to be safe.
