Snippet #4055

The large Flagship of the Aqu'ell'sh, the Sk'cean'y, would dock in the docking station. The ship itself seemed to be made completely of "Bubbles" as the Humans called it. The "Bubbles" would shift a bit, creating an entryway to and from the ship. Down the ramp came one of the most extravagant Jellyfish-like creatures one could set eyes upon, inside of a smaller portable "Bubble" that it floated in. Following closely the Flagship was a small ship in Brown and Red, with the logo of the Qqoa Mercenary Gang. Out of that ship, two Qqoa members would go and follow the Serene One closely. Hued in the brilliant Colors of the Rainbow, the Serene One would make her way to the hall. She would speak to her bodyguards in her unique and calming voice. "It seems that there are lots of others here...be on the lookout...I forsee trouble in the near future."

Her bodyguards would nod and move a bit closer to her. She was surrounded by two others, both Human. The two were wearing sinister Red and Brown Colored Armor and were apparently hired from the local Mercenary Group. They both were equipped with several weapons and gadgets they could use as needed.

She would take special care to find her way to the hall and keep her "Bubble". Unlike most of the others here, she would formally address the entire crowd, and save the embassies and representatives for after the fact. However, it was a risky trip, her brilliant colors made her an excellent target. She would go through any necessary scans, and gain entry. Once she was safely inside, the bodyguards would cloak themselves and head on into the assembly, unseen. They'd stand near the back of the area, behind the lectern, ready to strike those who would harm the Serene One.

The mere presence of the Xindhi, a race her kind had never encountered before, made her mind uneasy. They resembled the pictures of "Skeletons" and "Death" shown to them so often by others (mostly Humans), and she could see him in the room before she even entered. However, it was a lone one, probably no real threat. The 3'11" Jellyfish-like creature would make her way up to the lectern and prepare her speech. Her mind went through all the outcomes, too many to sort through. The path would be unclear for a while. Her special Gems would start glowing, translating speech to and from those around her.

"Ara'gi'shi, other beings. The fates have brought me here to give this very speech concerning the Aqu'ell'sh's joining of the ICW. For the time being, through all outcomes I have seen, our paths must cross. There are those out there who seek to destroy the very paradise we all inhabit, you and us. I also come to improve our relations with those who we have and have not met."

Everyone was focused intently on her it seemed. Many of them probably never met a Aqu'ell'sh, but then again, the Aqu'ell'sh are still new to the scene, only having joined when they figured out how to use a HydroDrive to get themselves great distances.[/i]

"I am the Serene One, Glai'ais'a. I represent the Aqu'ell'sh here in this gathering. For those of you who never met us before, we are a group of sentient beings who prefer peace over strife. We are mostly new to your Galaxy and your ways, and we hope to get around differences we may have through...'connections' with others in this gathering of Government. I am sure we shall all get along, for we must, the fates have it written. I come to request for the Aqu'ell'sh's entry to the ICW, where we hope to help improve your and our standings in the Galaxy."

Surprisingly, she thought she did okay with her speech. Aqu'ell'sh couldn't do big speeches as a default. They lack the capabilities for such a thing, however wise they might be. She would make her way down towards a wall in the big gathering area and float there, awaiting any other races petitioning for entry. Other than some confused glances from other beings, she was mostly accepted. The Xindhi still generated an intense feeling of dread in her. Beings that resembled what Humans, whom she's had more contact with and trusts on a higher level, called "Death" was unnerving. She was unsure if they'd be able to get along...she'd have to see, the many probabilities swirling through her mind, the many possible outcomes, futures.
