27 Meeting of the Elder Races

A sun surrounded by millions of solar panels spewed out the occasional flare. A blue and green earth-sized planet, inhabited by the Xuhan elder race, rotated peacefully around it when suddenly a being appeared casting a shadow on the planet.

Calvis decided to make his entrance with a show of force. He erupted with power when he arrived by the tech world showering the sky with light and making him visible from across the world. A brilliant burst of light covered the world.

'They have a world shield,' thought Calvis.

The elder races were all long-lived races with insanely long life spans. The Parthian race was the only elder race with members of their race still alive from the beginning of the second universe.

The amount of time it had taken for Calvis to learn how to use his powers properly was the approximate lifespan of one in the Xuhan race. With short lives comes short memories. He would teach them why the Parthian race was chief among the elder races.

Surrounding the world were shields that were even difficult for the average noble to break. The construction of the shields was an impressive feat, something to be expected from an elder race.

Calvis floated patiently outside of the atmosphere of the techno world with a confident smile on his face. Calvis's power had grown to the point where he was confident he would defeat a slightly more knowledgeable royal. While he could not be confident that he would be able to destroy this planet, he was confident he could get away any time he willed it.

'Xuhan's planets are interesting. Xuhans were able to fold space with their powerful technology so that each of their worlds could hold an enormous population and technological power that can rival a Parthian tribe.' Calvis thought.

On the techno world in the elder palace. Virtual world designated [Aarkadian] (Restricted to S class access and below).

The AI intelligence informed them that an Elder class being had arrived. Their world shield was still being tested and the outer defenses were damaged 20% by the arrival of the foreign Elder. The Elder had briefly tested their outer defenses and damaged them by 20 percent just by probing them.

The Elders knew that the time had come. The Xuhan race had become too complacent. They had been building psychic nets to explore the universe and learned its secrets while the other Elder races had begun to conquer this young universe.

"The Parthian race has come and we have to decide what we want to do." said a man with silver robes. He spoke with a tinge of very well concealed fear.

"We don't know. If it is the Parthians, it could be an individual faction within their empire. They are the most divided of the elder races after all." said a man in black robes

"The AI made a good suggestion we should talk to this Parthian delegate and see what he wants," another Elder spoke.

The elders discussed this for a time before coming to a consensus. The conversation seemed to have lasted for hours, but in reality, was finished in seconds.

Xuhan pocket dimensional space.

There was a boy laying on his bed fast asleep before an alarm rang the boy hit it waking himself up he looked at his watch and found that he was late pressing a button on his watch disinfected him and attached clothing that morphed into his usual black form-fitting suit with a small symbol on his shoulder indicating his house.

running to work due to the restriction on those with teleportation access he made it to the spaceport just in time.

As he was about to enter a building a woman he knows comes walking toward him.

planning to inquire why she was outside of the building he said, "Tuja why aren't you already working. I know I'm late but there is no reason for me to drag you down."

"Jake all operations have been shut down by the elder earlier this afternoon," Tuja said with an insecure smile.

Jake returned her smile before frowning and saying, "did the elder say the reason why operations were shut down."

Just as Tuja was about to say something a flair unlike anything ever seen before caused the shield to actually ripple. The robotic AI voice chimed, "possible invasion scenario taking place only required personnel are allowed to leave their Saftey pods. All nonessential personnel must immediately move to their safety pods."

'finally some excitement,' Jake thought as he ran toward the closest war vessel traveling to confront the invasion. Jake was never one to run in the face of danger and was allowed to board a war vessel as someone of his skills was needed everywhere as all technicians were.
