<font color="red"> Griff asked a second time, and this time the Yevethan finally looked up.
"Oh yes..Admiral. I was just reading up about your organization. I must admit we have quite a few things in common. I will allow you one hour"
The transmission was then cut.
And Griff laughed. He would have to do the same thing to his superiors. Apparently, the rumors of the Yevetha got quite out of hand.
A little while later Griff was standing next to the brightly colored Yevethan, watching the stars and the
Strike-class Cruisers that waited 20,000 kilometers off the starboard bow. The Yevetha and the Federation forces had entered into an uneasy and tense truce. It was like at any moment something could erupt and they would be at war again.
"Somtimes I do not understand you humans" The droid said.
Griff turned and regarded the silver-colored machine. It was the translator he had brought with him. 3D-04, or ThreeDee for short, just looked back at him.
"Is there somthing wrong sir?"
"No" Griff said, turning back to Jian.
"Why do you not understand us Viceroy?" He asked.
The Yevethan turned to him slightly and then to the droid. The Yevethan spoke to the droid and ThreeDee translated.
"I have not had much contact with them. Except under the Imperial occupation"
Griff nodded.
"Same here. We were atacked by the Empire and driven from our homeworld"
"Yes. Epsilon was it?"
"Yes"
"Well, then I have heard your proposal. I need time to confer with the Council. ANd I must get the Duskhan League back"
Griff nodded.
"We will help you. I have full authority to assist you in any way" Griff said.
Jian nodded.
"Good. It appears we are now allies"
"Yes. Lets hope it stays that way"
Jian didn;t say anything. He simply escorted Griff out the door. ANd back to his shuttle, Griff himself came away with a feeling of accompluishment and victory. As soon as they got the Duskhan League under Jian's control, they could head for their destiny.

"Entering the N'zoth system" The navigator said.
Griff smiled to himself. He could finally go back and claim a victory. Something the Federation hadn't had in a long time.
"The
Pride of Yevetha is ready. They are feeding Sensor telemetry to us. We have a visual"
"Put it up"
The flatscreen showed a huge visual of the N'zoth Shipyards and the planet itself.
"Oh...no..."
And docked inside one of the shipyards, was a brand new Menace-Class Star Destroyer. Another, presumably the
Valiant swung around from an opposite shipyard and headed for them, while the one dicked started t come out, looking deadly.
"They are both powering weapons. The
Valiant will be in range in two minutes. And the other...regestering as the
Obsidian will be ghere in four minutes"
"Understood. All ships, target the
Valiant and fire"
The small Strike-class Cruisers suddenly broke out from their hiding place under the
Pride of Yevetha and came at the STar Destroyer, all guns blazing.
Then the
Pride of Yevetha came in, its guns firing as well. The the ESD released its fighters, Dauntless-class Dive Bombers swooped in and began making Bombing runs on the Menace. With the Strikes shooting relentlessly at it and the bombers... the
Valiant eventually eased its fire and powered down all of its engines.
A few minutes later and the
Obsidian was also under control. The batle was short and sweet. A good victory.

"Unfortunately, our good Viceroy, Jian Paret will be stepping down. And this is the end of an era.
But... it is also the beginning of a new journey!...It is time to officialy announce that the Duskhan League, and our brothers in the Outer-Rim Federation,will be joining together! we will be strong! we will be powerful! For the glory of the Yevetha!!"
Jian looked from the holoprojector to the shadow man at the door.
"I hope you know what you are getting into" He said.
Groff nodded.
"I will not let you down"
But Jian didn't hear him, He was already alseep.
Griff stood there for a moment, and sighed to himself. As soon as the burden of power had passed from Jians shoulders, he had fallen asleep. Then Griff laughed silently to himself and left the room and headed foir the door, out of the Paret Estate. This was not over. </font>
