The story so far[spoiler]It has been 200 years since the forced exodus from Earth forced the Alamo and its crew to settle upon New Terra where the New Terran Republic was formed to unite humanity once again under a single banner. Over the years the NTR overcame many perils and were even able to return to the Sol System and reclaim Earth but nothing prepared them for the Scourge. In an effort to weaponize life forms native to New Terra the NTR allowed researchers to create a parasitic weapon to be used against adversaries deemed a threat to human kind. However Before the scientists could implement a gene which would make the parasites incompatible to humans, a rouge organization struck the lab and unknowingly released the what would become known as "The Scourge" upon New Terra. Every effort was made to purge the world of The Scourge but every effort failed. The NTR fleet led by Admiral "mandalore" Rodriguez were only able to contain the scourge by firing upon any ship attempting to leave the planet. Civilians and Soldiers alike were taken over by the parasite which took control of all brain functions essentially handing control and all of the host's knowledge over to the parasite. Eventually the Leaders of the NTR and the Alamo all came to the conclusion that the only way to safeguard the NTR would be to destroy the planet itself. The entire crew and all of the NTR's best fighters were sent to the surface to guard a drilling facility until a planet cracking bomb could be dropped onto the core. The fleet left the planet before the explosion and the system known for saving humanity was made off limits. A fleet now patrols the space around the star system preventing any entrance. [/spoiler] Currently an expedition Team is being formed to venture back into the system and learn what remains of New Terra. Apollo, the descendant of Murphy who was the son of Mandalore stands before the monument to the great sacrifice. The memorial depicts Mandalore, JT, Pavel and many other NTR leaders who heroically sacrificed themselves to rid the galaxy of The Scourge. [b]his datapad begins ringing and he raises his arm to answer the call and the of emits a blue light showing the face of his commanding officer.[/b] "Sir, just stopping at the memorial one last time before I welcome the new recruits to the Alamo." "Understood" says the man before ending the call. [b]a short ride later and Apollo stands before the newest members of the Alamo giving them each time to introduce themselves before the ship begins its journey.
