Dom and Sukura were now in route to Earth. This meeting was going to be big, a very bold plan and as Dom told Aidan, this could make them or break them. The war with the FSF was not going very well, they needed to tip the favor towards the Galactic Federation.
As the shuttle prepared to jump back to Earth, he was sitting in the pod, and was being very quiet. He had a lot on his mind. The war needed to change, it was favoring Darius Maximus. A regime under the control of a man like Darius Maximus, could be a disastrous for everyone.
To avoid detection and drawing any conflicts the ship was slipping away in the middle of the night, under cloak. The mission to Earth, would be a quick one. Jump in, talk to the chief of staff, try to get the Phoenix out of drydock and proceed with phase II.
Dom was not sure who would command the Phoenix, he assumed it would probably be Sakura, she had the command experience. She was the ideal choice.
Dom looked over at Sukura he could tell that she was a lost in thought too, He wondered what she was thinking about. If he had to guess, perhaps her son. He knew their relationship was a bit strained, sort like his relationship with this crew, it was a bit strained. And it was all Dom’s doing.
His ambitions to win this war at all costs, has created a lot of distrust in the junior crew, but his actions are shinning high with the Admiralty. Dom at first, did not want to command a ship, but he saw what absolute power does to individuals, especially to Teran individuals.
Dom was born an earthling, but he was not immune to personal ambitions of glory and power. His dedication to duty and work, made him a better candidate to resist temptation. He only wanted command because he knew he could do right by the crew, and had a few ideas on how to take the fight to the enemy.
The Phoenix project was a first start, but there was other things needed to win this war. However one of the biggest issues with wining this war was, how do you convince people to put aside their personal ambitions for power and glory and convince them to server a greater good and not just themselves?
People like Darius rose to power, due to the current way of thinking and to secure his position, he created technology advancements to secure it. Dom knew the best chance for change was the president’s vision, a vision a perfect utopian. He believed in her cause, he was not sure if the galaxy as a whole could be converted.

The shuttle had jumped from the DFS Lavie’s current position to the position of Earth. A late night meeting was established with chief of staff and Sukura and Dom. They talked about the failure of phase I, and it was best to proceed to phase II.
The chief of staff at first was not convinced this was the best course of action. Phase I had barely started, but it Sakura that pointed out again and convinced the chief of staff that the plan was doomed from the start.
Adding fighters and mechs to each ship was a good first step, but they need carriers in the size of drones. Weapons needed to be smaller and more resistant. Drones were the best choice, weaken enemy shields, and create multiple targets making it harder for the enemy to lock onto them.
The meeting took a while, but they were able to convince the chief of staff, next topic was the Phoenix was going to be the first of many ships, to carry drones, they were smaller and could store like the torpedoes in small cramp spaces.
Commanding this ship was offered to Dom Martinez, despite his recommendation that Sakura be given the command, but chief of staff insisted since Dom was most familiar with phase II that he lead the mission, what that really told him was, if the plan goes sideways the president’s cousin would be spared and he would take the fall all on his own.
This was an opportunity for him though, one he really wanted. But was the cost to high? That was the big question. Only time will tell. He was also promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, he was told he has two day’s to get the DFS Phoenix out of drydock and to rendezvous with the DFS Lavie.
4 Hours ago.
Sukura boards the shuttle heading back to the Lavie, she gets the fun pleasure of telling Captain Yuka Layton and Major Thorton, the news that her task group idea was approved and the Phoenix would meet up with them in two time.
The shuttle jumps into position and Sukura notifies the captain, meanwhile, Dom boards the Phoenix and gets right to work. The Phoenix needs a crew and several systems are still not green lite. The Phoenix will be ready in two days, Dom was going to make sure of it. Even if he had to light a fire under each of their asses to get it done!

Short time ago
The Lavie is still in transit, however the prisoner transfer exchange did not go according to plan. The President and her staff had boarded the DFS Providence to oversee the mini crisis on the rise from it. Dom was pushing his crew hard to get the Phoenix ready. They would depart by 08/25/4566. They barely met their deadline.
The Phoenix witnessed the transfer but jumped out shortly after, Senator Gillman needed a favor. Dom having a soft spot for her agreed to help her. The Phoenix jumped to the mempa sector, formerly Klingon space, now a protectorate of the galactic federation.
Raiders have been targeting the colony at the request of Senator Paul Gillman. During standard interrogation that was more based on fear than torture, we discover the pirates were working for Senator Paul Gillman and Darius Maximus, and that Senator Sarah Gillman was unaware of, or was she?
Dom wondered why Sarah sent him? He did not know if he could believe her story? Deep down he suspected that she suspected her husband but needed proof and Dom was the perfect escape goat, or where her intentions pure?
At any rate it really did not matter, the pirates needed to be stopped and the alliances within the galactic federation needed to be secured! Dom learned that president, and her staff were at the location of the Lavie so he decided to jump the ship back.
Present Time
The Phoenix meets up with the DFS Lavie, DFS Providence. Dom along with his bridge staff were eagerly awaiting orders from the DFS Lavie, it was time for Dom to check in with Captain Layton or at least Major Thorton.
“I wonder what the president is going to decide to do” asked Blish.
“My guess, imprisonment” said Dlanet.
“I was referring to the revelation of Senator Gillman” said Blish.
“Paul Gillman” pointed out Peyla. She knew the captain was close to Sarah Gillman. That was very clear to the crew of the Phoenix.
“Right, Senator Paul Gillman” said Blish.
“Let’s keep the speculation at a minimum” said Miyoko.
“Thank you number one, we will have to wait and see what the president wants to do” was all that Dom wanted to say on the matter. “Audlas open a channel to the Lavie” said Dom, as he rose from the captain’s chair, he waited for someone on the main viewer to answer the hail.
“Channel opened Captain” said Audlas.
“Phoenix to the Lavie, please respond” simply said Dom.
