The Arrival 3 Un

Meanwhile in New York City and emergency session of the UN was under way. After NASA informed the president of the message they received he spent the better part of the day getting in touch with other world leaders. Getting as many members as they could on a video call to try and sort what all of this would mean for the them and the rest of the world. After setting up the best they could the began the meeting however most of the leader knew what would mean for them if the world was visited by such a highly advanced civilization. " Order...Order. This session of the United Nation is called to order." Stated a UN monitor soon the many voices in the hall died down. The chair man of China push the a b.u.t.ton to be allowed to speak. " The Chair recognizes the Chairman of The People's Republic of China." The leader of China took a breather then began," I wish the confirm that all nation that are here at this moment received the same message of Prepare." The other member nation confirmed that they had too got that message. " Seeing how that is the case I wish to state that then the world should prepare for war. Who ever these people or creatures are they are more advanced then we are. To be able transmit a message to the whole world from Mars means they have the means to wipe us out completely and the people of China will not go out without a fight!" That statement was meet with a roaring applause by most of the members.

Next to speak was The Prime Minister of j.a.pan. " I agree with the Chairman of China I move to propose that all current conflicts in the world are tabled for the for see able future as we now have a bigger threat. I as so propose that all limits on military weapons and army formation be removed." Again most of the member nation agreed to this, however there was one nation that was not so quick to follow this thinking, and they took this moment to speak out. " The President of the United States wish to be heard." At this moment the entire room went silent.

Satisfied by the reaction the President then began his speech. " Ladies and Gentlemen of this a.s.sembly I too believe that we should table old conflicts and look to the future of the planet, however as to if we should go to war with this new "guest" or not should be up for debate. I for one do not believe that war would be our wise choice of actions in this situation. Before you scream your disapproval hear me out." The President then motions to one of his aids and a projects flickers to life in the middle of the room. The image... a Lucrehulk-cla.s.s LH 3210 cargo freighter spanning 3,170 meters in length, the longest s.p.a.ce vessel the UN had ever seen. Completely dwarfing the international s.p.a.ce station the largest man made thing the planet had created at this time. The ship was practically overflowing with weapons, 42 quad turbolaser batteries where highlighted on the screen. No one in the room spoke h.e.l.l it was as if the whole room was holding their breath. " Thanks to these images we in the US have an idea on who we are dealing with...and it took awhile for use to come to a conclusion on weather or not to believe what we had come to." The President said plainly. ' Out with it man tells us who are they and what do they want." A delegate shouted in a panic.

" Well...we believe they are the Trade Federation lead by a race known as the Neimoidians from a planet called Cato Neimoidia. As for what they want I can not say but based off of what we can gather about them if it is true nothing good would come with fighting them at the moment in fact that could very well end with every man, woman, and child as slaves if we take the path to war." The president took a breath as he reached for the water on the desk. In his mind he was wondering when the question as to how they know who they are would show its head. He did not wait long as the President from Russia practically jumped from his seat on screen yelling in Russian about something. The President took a sip of water as he waited for the translator to catch up to what was being said. " How do you know so much about this 'Neimoidians' did you create them are they some sort of America experiment gone wrong. What Russia demands answers!" ' Well this is going to be a long story...' The President took a breath and began explaining how they got most of the information about this race from a film director named George Lucas and how the United States government came to the conclusion that the man had some how came into the possession about the galaxy at large and the things that awaited them... yea this was going to be a very long day.

The movement of the shuttle was smooth, if Jack had not seen them take off before the cargo hold hatches closed he would still believe they where on the ground back at the school. This was not the case however, them moment they step into the ship they were hand cuffed sat down and shackled to the metal seats they were on. Keith had tried to get out of the shackles but yea no luck I mean the things were made to hold Jedi what good could a couple of High Schooler do. With nothing to do at the moment Jack choice to observe to try and understand what the goal here was. For one he came to the conclusion that the Neimoidians had lied about not knowing where the world leaders where simply because from the moment they go on the ship to it taking off not one time did they ask where they were. They did not come with a landing ship at lest not as far as he could tell. So complete planetary invasion had not happened yet. So they want something else and he guess that he and his friends where insurance to insure that the Neimoidians could get what they wanted or leave after they meet with the UN. As his thoughts wondered Trish nudged him to get his attention. " I am not sure but I think guys might want to use as a hostages Jack." Jack nodded at Trish's statement. " Well that just great...well at lest we will be on TV as the first human hostages in an cross civilization high stakes poker match if you will." She said some what exhausted. Jack had come to this conclusion already but still nodded to his friend clearly understanding this was not where they wanted or need to be but had no say in the matter.

Still Jack keep hope they would soon learn what they Hask and Ishmel where here for. As this though pa.s.sed in his mind Hask himself stepped into the cargo hold standing in front of Jack. " Speak of the devil..." Jack spoke out loud, Hask raised his eyebrow but did not comment on the statement clearly is was a saying on this human world. " So young human seeing how you are a guess on my ship I feel it is only proper that you tell me your name do you not believe so..." Hask almost hissed while speaking causing Keith to almost start laugh at the unbelievable nature of their whole situation. Hask shoot a cold glance at the human silencing him instantly then turing his attention back to Jack waiting for his response. Jack sat for awhile with out saying anything just stare at Hask with the same cold look he had shot his friend. However Hask could feel something crawl on his skin when the human stared at him. It felt as though something was trying to force its way in to his body and devour him from the inside. The only thought in his mind at this moment was Danger. It only lasted for a second but thats all anything needs to take to make an impression.

The stare down continued for a few more seconds until Jack sighed and then answer Hask. " I am Jack... Jack Carter my friend on my left is Trish Anderson, and my friend to the right is Keith Reed. Now that I answered you question maybe you could explain to me a few things as its is only fair right?" Jack stare at Hask waiting for a response which was give with out much of a fight. " Sure Jack your right it is only fair seeing how we did 'diplomatically' invite you on to my ship so I am sure you have questions as to why." 'Diplomatically yea thats a good one' Jack thought but then quickly shifted to the one thing he could not figure out. " Ok Hask do tell me why are you here sure the planet has mineral deposit but compared to some of the asteroids in the galaxy what we have might as well equal nothing. We don't have any form of technology the Trade Federation could want or need, and if you were going to conquer our planet you would have done so already.h.e.l.l you don't even need me and my friends as hostages I am sure we don't have anything to fight the command ship you have in orbit or even the extra B1 battle droids you have here in the cargo hold. So I have to know what do you want really?"

Hask was again quite surprised by the young human they had spoken at most ten minutes at most yet he had already pieced together so much in so little time if he had been born a Neimoidians he would do extremely well in the Trade Federation and if his whole race could piece things together just as well as the young ones with very little information then with a bit of training a very skilled merchant planet could rise from this back water place....to bad though a deal is a deal and if there was one group of people you never cross it would be Mandalorians. They do not forgive and they do not forget. Sighing in his mind at the loss he turned to the young human and simply said," Do you know what a Mandalorian training colony is?"
