While the giant grey relic speeds towards planet Earth, a fanelian battle cruiser also speeds this way, although a bit slower. On the bridge of this ship the captain and her immediate crew continue to discuss the current conditions of their mission.
"I hope Moe is ready to deal with this relic, this is his first mission sense the class A enhancement procedure" says Coleen from next to the captains chair.
The girl with green hair and eyes seated at the defense coordination console turns around "Ma'am, he has been fully tested and the strain on his body from the process is within tolerances. My only concern is the unknown specialty of the relic. " she says in her soft cute voice. Green eyes blink before turning back to her screen. "There is a large energy cloud surrounding the relic right now. Our scanners can not even get close to reading its energy signature. There is one thing though..." she trails off looking to the captain.
Angel looks over at her and makes a motion with her hand "well go on then Amelia, don't keep us in suspense!"
Amelia turns back to her console as a bead of sweat can be seen trailing down the side of her face. "This relic is moving three times faster than a standard Class A large relic".
Everyone was stunned. Angel turns to the private com channel and asks "Moe, did you hear that?" . A grumble can be heard from the other side of the line "yeah yeah yeah, don't get your panties caught in your tail. I get it, big and fast. It still won't stand a chance".
On the other side of the line, in a lower section of the ship, a tall man with short green spikey hair can be seen slowly fitting on a set of metal bracers with coiled hosing coming out of them. His wide muscled back ripples as he maneuvers the attachments onto his body. After attaching the other end of both hoses to a weird looking metallic back pack, he tosses it on over his shoulders and then clasps the straps over his chest. Well defined pecks move with every breath he takes. Aside from a little bit of fur on his shoulders and arms it seems most of his body is covered in skin. The fur color is also a soft tan.
After placing the pack on, he grabs a white outer cloak that looks like a mix of priest robes, a leather duster, and a sleeveless jacket. The garment is long reaching to the back of his knees. The front is left open with golden with red design hemming going up one side, behind his neck, and then back down the other. Flexing his forearm muscles the sound of a drill can be heard as a little blood begins to leak out from under both of his bracers. A soft mechanical voice then rings out "energy supplement system engaged".
Moe grins, and opens his right hand in front of his face. When he does blue energy can be seen gathering in his palm and condensing into a pure white ball. "Ready to rock" he says and let's the ball be absorbed back into his hand.

Back on earth, another day begins for John. Just like the previous day he wakes up, showers, gets dressed and heads towards work.
On his way auto traffic begins to pile up. Sitting in his sedan he watches the cars come to a halt in the 12 lane expressway. Both sides of traffic seem to be at a dead stop.
John leans back against his seat and muses to himself "I wonder what happened". While he says that he sees people beginning to get out of their vehicles and turn around staring at the sky. His eyebrows contort as he doesn't quite understand what's happening. He puts his car in park and unbuckles himself before stepping out of the vehicle and turning around.
Just as he does his eyes grow wide and he begins to shake. A giant white and blue fireball seems to be streaming down from the heavens. As it nears it grows larger before zipping overhead. He turns quickly watching its trajectory his eyes still wide and his mouth hanging open.
Moments later he sees the fireball blow through one of the 50 story buildings before smashing into the city. A huge shockwave erupts and giant balls of fire and cloud shoot out from the impact. He quickly jumps back into his car and slams the door ducking behind the dash. A mere moment later the shockwave reaches them. All the glass on his vehicle shatters. Shards of flying clear and tinted shrapnel shoot through the interior. Intense heat can be felt coming through the new openings on his car burning his back and shoulders. Finally when it subsides he looks up.
Looking out the now empty front of his car he sees vehicles on fire, flipped over, people burnt to ash and buildings collapsing in front of him. If it wasn't for the large suv in front, he suspects he may have met a similar fate. The devastation before his eyes is like something out of a movie. Fire and smoke can be seen rising all over the city.
The once proud and tall skyscrapers have been reduced to skeletons or gone completely. At that very moment one of the skeleton sky scrapers collapses on itself and tumbled to the ground. Small black dots can be seen falling out of its husk as well.
The ringing in his ears begins to quiet being replaced with the sounds of screaming, crying, pain and despair. he can barely fathom what has just happened. John forgets about his own injuries and gets out of the burnt and mangled mass of metal that was once his car.
When John was thinking this scene couldn't be more horrifying, he sees a tall dark shadow rise from the center of the destruction. Piercing red glows can be seen from its top. John feels as if they are staring right at him. A moment later a loud deafening roar can be heard echoing through the sky.
"Oh my god...." is all John can say as he remains frozen in place with fear. Sweat streams down his body from the heat. The salty water stinging his burns and cuts as he remains frozen. Another loud boom can be heard echoing through the sky and the shadow seems to get bigger, as if it is moving towards him.
Mouth agape he remains rooted to his spot. His brain overloaded with the events around him. Finally snapping back to his senses his next thought is of his family. He grabs his cell phone and quickly tries to call his wife. His efforts are greeted only with a single message "we are sorry, all circuits are busy now". Cursing, he slams the phone back into his pocket. Looking back up at the sound of another boom, the shadow has gotten closer.
John now understands the giant shadow is moving closer. Wooshing can be heard and a group of military fighters streak towards it. Hot flashes can be seen as they rain hate on the shadow. Almost like flies buzzing around a lion. The shadow then grows multiple slim tentacles and they begin to wildly whip through the air. Where once there were 7 aircraft there is now fireballs in the sky. With a single swipe they were all wiped out.
Sirens begin to echo through the air. Loud and piercing to the ears, overshadowing even the noise of the screams and anguish. Another set of fighters streak towards the giant shadow. Just like before they rain their fiery hate only to meet a swift end at one of those tentacles.
What feels like an eternity later another set appears. This time there are double the number of fighters. Flying in a v form surrounding what looks to be a large bomber. They speed towards the shadow leaving chem trails in their wake. This time they do not fire a single shot, they simply fly straight forward.
The tentacles hesitate for a moment before lashing out. The fighters begin to drop one by one but it seems the bomber makes it through. A giant flash of white light happens shortly there after. John quickly dives back into his car as another shockwave hits his vehicle. This time the car flips over and lands on its roof. John blacks out when his temple strikes part of the interior.
When he wakes up he has no idea how long it has been. He painfully crawls from the wreckage and looks towards the direction he thought the shadow was coming from. The color leaves his face at what he sees.
Everything in front of him is gone or turned into rubble. The only thing that remains inside a giant crater is the giant shadow which seems to be even closer. He quickly regains his wits and tries to stand. Quickly he falls back to the ground from a shooting pain in his right leg. He looks down and sees there is a large piece of metal going right through the center of his thigh. Bits of white bone and flesh are attached to the jagged end protruding through his leg. He looks back again and could swear those red lights are looking straight at him.
"Please god..." is all he can say now rooted to his spot and sure his end is near. The life he had lived flashes through his mind. Thoughts of his friends, family, wife, and finally his daughter stick in his mind. Tears stream down his face as he prays for their safety. The shadow grows nearer now blocking the light from the sun. As he looks up to see his fate, the towering lump seems to be looking at him still. And then it opens its round gigantic mouth showing rows on rows of jagged teeth before roaring into the air.
