The very next day Reya and Newton are in the PA Senate building in front of the entire Senate of the PA. Over 2000 senators sit in their seats one for each planet in the Planetary Alliance. Reya stands on the floor of the Senate which is in the middle of the rotunda while she bad mouths Admiral Newton.
"This man has endangered the Alliance as a whole. 2000 planets in our Alliance and over 500 of which have no protection against a Hondras attack. Over 500 planets are now at risk of Hondras occupation or destruction. I ask the men, women, and other lifeforms of the Senate to remove Admiral Newton from his command for his gross negligence in the face of such a looming threat" she says.
"Do you think she won over anyone?" Heidi asks as she sits quietly in the observation section of the building.
"That was an amazing speech. I'm sure she won a few over." Victoria says
"Who asked you?" Heidi says
"No one, I just wanted to add something to the conversation" Victoria responds
Jeffers nudges Heidi for being mean to Victoria.
"What? I...I didn't mean it like that."
Heidi says.
Back down on the floor. One of the senators arises from his seat. A green man with a big head says
"I agree with princess Reya. My planet Vekner has no defense against the Hondras. We are vulnerable. So are other planets such as Sharon and Cantrun." He says
"Yeah!" shouts the senator from Cantrun who is sitting just a few seats down. The dark skinned man says.
At the speaker row of the Senate building the senator from Xivoll, a blue humanoid says
"Out of the 5 Admirals of the PA Morza has 2 of them. Are you sure you want to get rid of one of your Admirals to replace him with someone else?" He asks
"I do wish to remove one of my Admirals for another to have a chance." Reya admits
"Well ok then let us hear his side of the story and we may vote on it" the Senator says
Reya steps away from the stand and Admiral Newton steps forth.
"Men, women and other lifeforms of the Senate. I have a question for you."
He says, He continues to say
"Do you think the Alliance could win a war with the Hondras?"
The Senate gives a resounding "yes!" With one of the senators adding the necessary content
"But we will be heavily weakened by that war."
Admiral Newton continues to ask
"Ok so you think we would be weakened by this war but we'll still win. Ok. What if I told you that we could win with almost no casualties"
"I'd say you were nuts," says one of the senators.
Admiral Newton points up to the ceiling and says
"Project"
Then all the lights in the room slowly dem and a projection shoots into the wall behind Newton. The projection shows this huge ship compared to the size of other ships in the fleet.
The entire Senate is shocked.
"What the " Victoria whispers
"Its gigantic" Heidi says
Admiral Newton then says
"This is the MOASS."
A little chuckle goes through the Senate. Even Princess Reya can't help but laugh.
"Yeah funny name, but it's acronym the Mother Of All StarShips. Let's you know what you're dealing with.
We have three types of ships in the PA fleet. The Comet class which is recon ships with no defenses just cloaking. Then there's the solar class which are the Star Cruisers better known as exploration ships. Finally there is the meteor class. Which are Battlecruisers or warships. I propose to you the Galaxy class." He says
"And what will this so-called galaxy class do?" asks the senator who is questioning him.
"Let's take the warship resolver for instance. She can hold up to 150 torpedoes and has 16 guns. This baby can hold over 1500 torpedoes and has over 100 guns. With A solar cannon that can destroy a planet."
The entirety of the Senate gasps
"Destroy a planet. What of the innocent who reside there" Victoria says with deep concern in her voice.
Princess Reya shares Victoria concern when she says
"You plan to destroy Hondras? The actions of their government don't incriminate their people."
"I don't like the idea either but we must consider it. Remember the events of Several episodes throughout the original series. We have an entire movie where the brave men, women and lifeforms aboard the USS Constellation attempt to stop them from destroying Morza!" Admiral Newton shouts
There is a silence for a while but it is broken when the questioning senator says
"Let us vote on it"
After an hour all the votes are tallied, and it comes back 1001 to 999 in favor of having Admiral Newton stay. A spit in the face to Princess Reya and to Peace with the Hondras.
