actually, this will work out quite well.

ALRIGHT!!! the launch is set....the Origins of the Force begin....right...now.

*Six months have passed since the discovery on Merburshir. A galactic summit has been called. Formally, the summit is to arrange exploration teams to travel to the discovered coordinates. However a special team is being assembled to investigate the orb found on Merburshir. Colonels James and Camilla Macaulay and John's parents are meeting with Major Antilles to assemble the team*

John: Mom? Dad? What's going on?

Lt. Gen. Roderick Antilles (human): They're shippin you out, son.

John: Colonels, I'm sure I would be of much better use to you if I stayed here with the fleet and oversaw the explorations rather than actually being--

Camilla: Sit down, hun. You're actual mission is much bigger than that. When James and I were on Merburshir, that orb showed us something....more. More than just a few simple coordinates. There is something else out there. Listening to the recordings, we believe that unless we act first, all of our advances will be for nothing. That's where you come in...

James: We have a series of planets for you to investigate. Three to be exact, whose names we don't know. Some of the other "exploration teams" are being briefed for the same mission in different directions. But you'll be on the most important one. We believe these three planets were most important to whoever was slaughtered by these unknowns. They may hold the most clues as to who was responsible, and if there is anything left of them.

John: With all due respect, my superiors, but that was thousands of years ago. This could turn out to be the biggest waste of time and money in the history of our civilizations.

James: A risk we're willing to take...

Camilla: Indeed. But the fact that the orb was working and the recordings were quite clear indicates that these...unknowns...are still out there. Waiting. Massing.

John: and im the kath hound you're sicking at an unknown enemy just to gauge is strength? You're using me?

James: No. Not using you per se. I understand your frustration but if you won't then who will?

John: Oh, I don't know...you maybe?! You're the one who discovered all this in the first place!

James: No John. It's time for me to step aside and oversee your overseeing from here. That's why you're getting the Horizon.

John: That's the most advanced ship in our fleet. That's your ship sir. I couldn't possibly--

James: Yes you can. And you will. You will do fine, John. *pats his back*

John *looking at his parents*: You're okay with this?

Roderick: You saved the entire galaxy during the Confederate war. Of course we are.

John: Fine...but what about this elite crew you're talking about?

James: You'll have the most skilled technicians, engineers, pilots, navigators, doctors, and chefs aboard. We found the best combat specialists in the galaxy as well.

John: No doubt. Who would they be?

James: You're not gonna like it...
