Captain Craxus in Earth and Beyond
Created | Updated Feb 9, 2004
Away in the depth of space there was a single Terran Enforcer. This terran was on a deep space patrol mission in the Saturn Sector looking for potential enemies. This terran enforcer’s name was Craxus Nicroy. He is Commander in the Terran Home World’s. Sworn to protect the settlers on different planets such as Mars, Saturn, and Asteroid Belt Alpha.
“As I circle around the Saturn sector for another pass I think of what I have become,” thought Craxus. “There is a harsh enemy that hates everything dealing with Terran’s.” These people are Xenics. They fly around sector to sector destroying settlements on different planets until one day we stood up and put patrols in each sector to guard our civilians.
“Today is February 14th, 3028,” blurted the onboard AI (Artificial Intelligence). “All systems are fully functional at 100%, Captain.”
“Thank-you Eva,” said Craxus addressing the Computer AI. “Put us on auto-pilot and just take the nav points around the system. Also run deep space sweeps for anything out of the norm.”
“Aye aye, Captain,” acknowledged the Computer.
“I wish to take a nap I didn’t get to bed last night till 4:30 a.m. in the morning. Computer play some classical music from the earlier ages of Earth please. Oh, if anything shows up on scans go into silenced mode.”
“Acknowledged,” replied the Computer.
Many hours passed and Craxus lied very still for sleeping has taken over his mind and body. The Computer did as Craxus told it to do, to run sweeps for anything out of the ordinary.
Craxus in a sleeping state was awakening from an annoying beep the computer was giving off. The council was blinking a red light at the scanning section. He opened one of his blue eyes slowly and thought to him self, “What now?”
“Computer, what’s going on,” questioned Craxus.
“Captain, there is a sighting of a Jump Gate opening up. Many Xenic ships are flying from it and heading towards the Space Station Omega near the Saturn planet,” reported the Computer.
“Well how many ships are coming from it I need to know what I’m up against!” screamed Craxus.
“There are 10 ships captain,” replied the Computer.
“Oh know. All those people will be killed if I don’t do something,” sighed Craxus. “Computer Arm missile tubes 1-5 and set the White Dragon Lasers to 75% and, load up the Plasma Chain Gun. Prepare to fire. Red Alert! I repeat Red Alert!”
The Xenic’s saw on their sensors that there was a Terran Fighter arming its weapons, shields, and engines. The Xenics talked amongst themselves to think of a way to handle the Terran. “You four proceed to the station Omega and, you six take on that terran fighter.”
“Hail to the Xenics for they shall never fail!” shouted the Xenic squadron.
The Xenic squadron split up and set off for the station omega and Craxus. In the mean time Craxus had everything armed and ready to rock and roll.
“Computer, take off auto-pilot and let me take the helm. Just get ready to start auto-repair on the ship for I know I wont come out of this fight without at least one mark on my ship.”
“Aye Captain, auto-pilot disengaging,” stated the computer.
Craxus flies to the Xenics. With the military background of Craxus he should have the advantage, but he doesn’t know what those Xenics are armed with? Craxus activate his scanning system and scans those ships to see what they are armed with.
“Captain, the Xenic ships are armed with 4 lasers and 2 projectiles each with a heavily armored hull and shields. If you use the hacking skill you can disable their shields or some of their weapons,” complied the computer.
Craxus is now close enough to use his forward missile tubes. He fires 4 of the plasma missiles and 2 explosive and 1 chemical at the first Xenic ship coming after him. Direct hit! It knocked the Xenic ship’s hull plating down to half and the shields are now destroyed. He fires another barrage of missiles at the target and destroys it.
As Craxus was busy with firing his missiles and destroying his targets, that the Xenic’s were in range to fire their weapons. Three of the five now fired their weapons at Craxus. Craxus shifts into an evasive maneuver. Two of the Xenics hit Craxus’ ship. The ship absorbed it into the shields and brought them down to 84%.
Craxus notices that he is being shot at and fires his Plasma chain gun and shoots a couple of bullet holes into the ships of the Xenics. One of the Xenic’s was extremely mad at the Terran for he knocked out his engine and is cold in the water. The other Xenics, sustained minor damage to most systems.
Craxus fires missile after missile, bullet after bullet, and laser after laser. He does severe damage to the Xenics while, evading their weapon fire. After thirty minutes he does enough damage to destroy five out of the six Xenics. He circles around and has the sixth Xenic in his sights. He thinks to himself, “That’s the one I took out the engine’s with hack.” He fires his plasma chain gun. After thirty shots the Xenic is destroyed. Craxus wipes the sweat off his brown hair and, stands up and stretches his six foot one inch body.
“Computer, what is the damage to all ship systems?” questioned Craxus.
The computer replies, “Captain, we have taken the following damage: Shields 21%, Hull 86%, Missile tubes 1 and 2 are disabled, warp engine is off-line, our lasers have taken 67% damage and are still function.”
“Now what about those other Xenics that went to take on the space station?” questioned Craxus.
“Captain, the station Omega has taken minimal damage and destroyed those Xenics the military personnel on board the station launched in their fighters and destroyed them. I suggest we dock to repair and recharge our shields.”
“All right Computer take us to the station at 3/4ths impulse,” stated Craxus.
As Craxus and his ship boarded the station to repair, he found out some really bad news. It seems that all the sectors of Terran occupied space have all been attacked. Saturn Sector was one of the least forced upon. Earth and Mars Sectors both are still under attack by hundreds of thousands Xenics all trying to take over the headquarters of the Terran Homeworld. A galaxy wide Distress call has been initiated. All military personnel have been called to those sectors. Report to your Sector Stations to arm up and get ready for an intense battle.
“Computer, you have heard our mission? Let’s rearm and get going now!” shouted Craxus.
“Aye aye Captain.”
Craxus waits for the auto-repair drones to finish up with repairing the damage to his ship from the earlier battles. He just watch’s and waits for the drones to finish. To pas the time he looks at the news at Earth and Mars sectors. It seems that it’s getting worse. So far, the Xenics have not broken through Earth’s defense ring, which encloses the planet with point singularity missile systems. A couple of those type missiles can take out a semi-huge vessel with max shielding.
“Captain, we have finished with the repairing. All systems are 100%. We are good to go,” announced the computer.
“Thank you Eva, let’s go to warp. Let’s just hope we are not too late,” worried Craxus.
The ship backed out of the Space Station Omega. Craxus does a flip around turn to get to the nearest Jump Gate. With the touch of a button, Craxus zooms away at 4036 warp speed, and wish’s his family on his home world Earth is safe and away from all this danger.
Craxus arrives at the Jump Gate to Earth Sector and tells the Computer to activate the Jump Gate. The Computer did as Craxus told it to do. The Jump Gate activated, blue lights start to form up around it into a swirling effect. The physical parts of the gate, the rings, start to move violently. Whoosh! The gate activates. At impulse speed Craxus goes through the gate. Once entered everything goes sweeping by very rapidly. Stars and planets only look like a blur to the young twenty-four year old Terran. In five minutes, he is on the opposite side of the milky-way galaxy.
“Computer, take a count of all the Xenic ships present. Also, contact high command at Earth Corps Center,” said Craxus promptly.
“Aye Captain,” replied the Computer.
After about ten minutes, Craxus moves closer to the battles between the Terran’s and the Xenics. He had to be careful piloting between all the debris from all the destroyed ships of mass destruction. He checked the sensors and noticed that Earth’s defense system was already taking damage. Two out of the ten defense weapons were destroyed, in the process of another one being destroyed.
“Captain, I have scanned the area. There are 750,000 Xenic ships left remaining still fighting that battle. 200,000 of them have been destroyed. 500,000 Terran’s are still remaining the fight. 100,000 of them have been destroyed with 2,500 life pods still in space looking for pickup from medical evacuation vehicles. There are still more Terran’s arriving to help the fight. We are to assist the Stargate Force One squadron. They are twenty-five ships in formation taking out Xenics with full extreme.”
“Okay, where are they at, Computer?” wondered Craxus.
“They are at nav point five. This is the closest nav point to Earth’s Defense. They are taking on the heaviest combat with about 1,000 Xenics trying to break through them to reach another missile defense system. The squadron commander, Colonel Erimak Makabre, would like you to send him a transmission upon our arrival,” droned the Computer.
“Take us to warp, Computer,” directed Craxus.
From an outside view the ship powers up. Rings of purple haze start to form up around the ship. Then Boom! The ship goes to warp like a rabbit running for its life. The ship passing nav points 1,2, and 3 are leaving a trail of purple reddish haze from the speeding warp engine. Craxus prepares a transmission to Colonel Makabre.
“Colonel Makabre, I am Commander Craxus of the EarthCorps. I was sent here from Saturn to help you and your squadron out. I am repaired, reloaded, and ready to help in the defense of Earth,” said Craxus with pride.
Two minutes passed before Craxus got a response. “Sorry Commander, we were under heavy attack there for a second I didn’t have time to reply till now. I would like you to join us. My squadron and I are still under attack; we need any and all help. We are assigning you a wingman, all though she isn’t a man. I guess you can call her your wing woman. She’s the best I got Commander. Her name is Captain Sarah Carter. Let’s just say she has been with missiles, machine guns, and space ships all her life. I would like you to talk with her. One sec… (Long pause and you hear Colonel Makabre grunt a couple times) oh sorry about that we are still under attack. Like I said I want you to talk with her really quick to get to know one another I found it to be better that way,” replied Colonel Makabre in a rush.
“Thank you Colonel. I am almost there. I leave you to your battle with the Xenics; I’ll be arriving shortly,” said Craxus in a polite matter.
Craxus wrote a transmission to Captain Carter. While he was talking with the Colonel, he was still speeding away to get to nav point 5. He passed debris of both Xenic and Terran. Also when he was speeding to nav point 5 he saw two other huge battles defending an Earth’s Missile Defense System.
“Hello Captain Carter, I am Commander Craxus. I have been assigned to be your wingman. How is the battle there?” questioned Craxus.
“Hello Commander, just call me Sarah. I don’t like it when men call me Captain. I am just wondering. What are you armed with? I am armed with five Missile Launchers that fire four missiles each at a 6.9 second reload,” said Sarah.
“Oh Sarah, I got four plasma missile launchers, two explosive, one chemical, two White Dragon Lasers, and one Plasma Chain Rifle. Good for taking on quite a few Xenics,” said Craxus proudly.
“Where were you before this all happened, Commander? Of course I was with Stargate Force 1. We were around Earth’s moon base,” questioned Sarah.
“I was on a solo patrol mission in the Saturn Sector. 6 Xenics jumped me. I took minor damage to my systems just my shields and hull needed to be repaired, so I docked. That’s when I found out the news about Earth and Mars,” sighed Craxus.
“Are you close to the squadron yet?” wondered Sarah.
“Yes, I am at nav point 4 just reaching nav point 5,” replied Craxus.
“Ok, watch out for the few Xenics who are near the nav point so try to fly to the east once you exit warp, I will lay down some cover fire for you, Hun,” said Sarah with grace.
Craxus arrives at nav point 5. As soon as he exits warp, 5 Xenic ships fire upon him. From the left you see eight missiles launched at the five Xenic ships, just long enough for Craxus to get to his assigned squadron, and to Sarah.
“Commander, are you alright? I am worried… please respond,” worried Sarah.
“Yes, yes, I am fine my shields are down to 89% but with my shield regeneration it should be back up in no time. Oh and by the way, call me Craxus,” said Craxus.
“Phew, I’m glad you’re not hurt. So wingman, you ready to defend this defense platform with all of your skills, weapons, and well luck?” wondered Sarah.
“Why, yes mam I am,” stated Craxus. After the two got acquainted, they were ready to begin battle with the Xenic’s and watch each other’s backs.
After about ten minutes another onslaught on nav point 5 to defend the defense missiles systems. Sarah and Craxus were taking out Xenics left and right. The two both are veterans and have fought in many wars never together until that day.
Ten hours later, the Xenics have finally fallen back to their mother ship. Their mother ship consisted of many weapons mount, and stronger shields than 2,000 of their greatest warships. The Terran’s Intel thought this would be where they should attack to end this planet attacks. The mother ship is located in Asteroid Belt Alpha, they will send there mass fleet to destroy the ships once and for all. The Terrans are trying just to go back to peace on their home planet Earth, and for the planet Mars.
The Terran Intel has gathered up 300,000 Terran System Fighters to take out the mother ship, consisting in them is Sarah and Craxus. The 300,000 Terran’s were split up into three main groups. One fighter group will attack the front end of the mother ship. One group to attack the back right, and another to attack the back left of the mother ship. Sarah and Craxus were in the fighter group one. They will be attacking the front end, with the heaviest weapon fire. The 2nd group will attack the engines. The 3rd group will attack the shield generators.
They all launched not even all of them were repaired from the previous battles with the Xenics. Craxus was the commanding officer of group one, with Sarah in his second command. Since all higher commanding officers, were either in Intel, or they were injured in battle.
Craxus took point, and went to warp; the others went to warp as well behind him. They met about 16 kilometers before the mother ship. They exchanged ammo so the one’s with low ammo will be ready for the big battle.
The Intel was waiting for all the groups to arrive at their designated points close to the mother ship. The attack code name is “Code Medusa,” Craxus must wait for that code to attack the mother ship. Also, each group leader was given one nuke to launch when they could, mainly at the end of the battle when all hope is lost.
By this time, the Xenics have realized how many Terran’s were out there. The Xenics scanned the Terran’s and found that every single one of them was armed with missiles, lasers, and projectiles. They also noticed that three of them were carrying an armed nuke.
The Intel leaders came over every single Terran Fighters COM, “You all are brave men and women. I wish you all the best of luck and Godspeed. Code Medusa. I repeat Code Medusa.”
With that message everyone attacked. Missiles flying everywhere. The Xenics launched every single fighter they had prepped with what they could. Machine gun fire also erupted in Asteroid Belt Alpha. Terrans were being destroyed from fire from the mother ship. Xenic’s were being destroyed by Terrans. All Hell has broken loose.
Craxus was mainly staying with Sarah since they have fought together ten hours before the main fight. The two were shooting down Xenic fighters trying to disrupt the fighting on the back of the ship with the engines and the shield generators.
“Sarah, you doing alright?” questioned Craxus.
“Yea, I am ok just getting a little low on missiles. Just so many of them (long pause just to gaze at the fighting.) Craxus, I will defend you with my life. I pledge myself to you,” said Sarah while crying from looking at the scene of battle.
“As do I Sarah, as do I,” said Craxus from his heart and soul.
The battle lasted for two hours and is still going on just to take down the defenses. The Xenic fighters have diminished. The mother ship has its shields down to 12%. The Xenics were afraid they were going to loose. So, they moved into a warp path away from all the asteroids.
The Terran’s noticed that the Xenics were making a run for it with what they could. The Terran Intel sent a message to all the group leaders to say, “Don’t let that ship get away destroy it at all costs.” So, Craxus and the other group leaders told their group of what to do and they all concentrated on the engines. Everyone was moving to the back of the ship. Laser after laser, missile after missile. The Terrans shot as much as they could at the ship and it still wouldn’t get through to the engines to destroy their warp core.
Craxus had an idea that he couldn’t let back. Even though he thought this was suicidal he still was going to try it.
“All groups except the group leaders stop your attack. I repeat stop your attack. Go to Earth Sector. The group leaders and I are going to see what these nukes can do. Please I repeat go to Earth,” said Craxus to all the groups. This was the toughest thing Craxus has ever had to say in his life. So, now all the Terran Fighters stopped their shooting, and took off to warp. All but four stayed. One of those four was Sarah.
“Sarah, what are you doing here I told all of you to go and leave the sector to get away from the blast radius?” wondered Craxus.
“Craxus, I told you I have pledged myself to you. I’m going to stick to that. Now you better get that ship their almost to the warp path,” reported Sarah.
“Alright Sarah, you can stay. Just get ready to jump to warp.”
The four fighters all moved into position to shoot at the ship. On Craxus’ command they fired the nukes. Whoosh! There the missiles go. The first one hit and it the back shields, it crippled the shields. The second one hit and in the back of the ship leaving a gapping hole in the back to the middle of the ship. The third one hit, Craxus’ missile, it hit the warp core. BOOM! The ship exploded, and a shock wave was emitted from the nukes.
“GO!!!! GO!!!! Go now or we die,” shouted Craxus.
The four ships went into warp, just before the shock wave hit them. Exploding asteroids hit the sides of the ship in warp on damaging the wings of the fighters a little to smoke.
The four arrived at Earth Sector. Their ships were damaged and needed repair. Each and everyone got a medal for surviving the Xenic War. Craxus and Sarah noticed that with the war and all that they fell and love. They got married in space, on the space station Omega. Earth was free for the next lifetime for their kids, kids, kids.
“As I circle around the Saturn sector for another pass I think of what I have become,” thought Craxus. “There is a harsh enemy that hates everything dealing with Terran’s.” These people are Xenics. They fly around sector to sector destroying settlements on different planets until one day we stood up and put patrols in each sector to guard our civilians.
“Today is February 14th, 3028,” blurted the onboard AI (Artificial Intelligence). “All systems are fully functional at 100%, Captain.”
“Thank-you Eva,” said Craxus addressing the Computer AI. “Put us on auto-pilot and just take the nav points around the system. Also run deep space sweeps for anything out of the norm.”
“Aye aye, Captain,” acknowledged the Computer.
“I wish to take a nap I didn’t get to bed last night till 4:30 a.m. in the morning. Computer play some classical music from the earlier ages of Earth please. Oh, if anything shows up on scans go into silenced mode.”
“Acknowledged,” replied the Computer.
Many hours passed and Craxus lied very still for sleeping has taken over his mind and body. The Computer did as Craxus told it to do, to run sweeps for anything out of the ordinary.

The Terran Intel has gathered up 300,000 Terran System Fighters to take out the mother ship, consisting in them is Sarah and Craxus. The 300,000 Terran’s were split up into three main groups. One fighter group will attack the front end of the mother ship. One group to attack the back right, and another to attack the back left of the mother ship. Sarah and Craxus were in the fighter group one. They will be attacking the front end, with the heaviest weapon fire. The 2nd group will attack the engines. The 3rd group will attack the shield generators.
They all launched not even all of them were repaired from the previous battles with the Xenics. Craxus was the commanding officer of group one, with Sarah in his second command. Since all higher commanding officers, were either in Intel, or they were injured in battle.
Craxus took point, and went to warp; the others went to warp as well behind him. They met about 16 kilometers before the mother ship. They exchanged ammo so the one’s with low ammo will be ready for the big battle.
The Intel was waiting for all the groups to arrive at their designated points close to the mother ship. The attack code name is “Code Medusa,” Craxus must wait for that code to attack the mother ship. Also, each group leader was given one nuke to launch when they could, mainly at the end of the battle when all hope is lost.
By this time, the Xenics have realized how many Terran’s were out there. The Xenics scanned the Terran’s and found that every single one of them was armed with missiles, lasers, and projectiles. They also noticed that three of them were carrying an armed nuke.
The Intel leaders came over every single Terran Fighters COM, “You all are brave men and women. I wish you all the best of luck and Godspeed. Code Medusa. I repeat Code Medusa.”
With that message everyone attacked. Missiles flying everywhere. The Xenics launched every single fighter they had prepped with what they could. Machine gun fire also erupted in Asteroid Belt Alpha. Terrans were being destroyed from fire from the mother ship. Xenic’s were being destroyed by Terrans. All Hell has broken loose.
Craxus was mainly staying with Sarah since they have fought together ten hours before the main fight. The two were shooting down Xenic fighters trying to disrupt the fighting on the back of the ship with the engines and the shield generators.
“Sarah, you doing alright?” questioned Craxus.
“Yea, I am ok just getting a little low on missiles. Just so many of them (long pause just to gaze at the fighting.) Craxus, I will defend you with my life. I pledge myself to you,” said Sarah while crying from looking at the scene of battle.
“As do I Sarah, as do I,” said Craxus from his heart and soul.
The battle lasted for two hours and is still going on just to take down the defenses. The Xenic fighters have diminished. The mother ship has its shields down to 12%. The Xenics were afraid they were going to loose. So, they moved into a warp path away from all the asteroids.
The Terran’s noticed that the Xenics were making a run for it with what they could. The Terran Intel sent a message to all the group leaders to say, “Don’t let that ship get away destroy it at all costs.” So, Craxus and the other group leaders told their group of what to do and they all concentrated on the engines. Everyone was moving to the back of the ship. Laser after laser, missile after missile. The Terrans shot as much as they could at the ship and it still wouldn’t get through to the engines to destroy their warp core.
Craxus had an idea that he couldn’t let back. Even though he thought this was suicidal he still was going to try it.
“All groups except the group leaders stop your attack. I repeat stop your attack. Go to Earth Sector. The group leaders and I are going to see what these nukes can do. Please I repeat go to Earth,” said Craxus to all the groups. This was the toughest thing Craxus has ever had to say in his life. So, now all the Terran Fighters stopped their shooting, and took off to warp. All but four stayed. One of those four was Sarah.
“Sarah, what are you doing here I told all of you to go and leave the sector to get away from the blast radius?” wondered Craxus.
“Craxus, I told you I have pledged myself to you. I’m going to stick to that. Now you better get that ship their almost to the warp path,” reported Sarah.
“Alright Sarah, you can stay. Just get ready to jump to warp.”
The four fighters all moved into position to shoot at the ship. On Craxus’ command they fired the nukes. Whoosh! There the missiles go. The first one hit and it the back shields, it crippled the shields. The second one hit and in the back of the ship leaving a gapping hole in the back to the middle of the ship. The third one hit, Craxus’ missile, it hit the warp core. BOOM! The ship exploded, and a shock wave was emitted from the nukes.
“GO!!!! GO!!!! Go now or we die,” shouted Craxus.
The four ships went into warp, just before the shock wave hit them. Exploding asteroids hit the sides of the ship in warp on damaging the wings of the fighters a little to smoke.
The four arrived at Earth Sector. Their ships were damaged and needed repair. Each and everyone got a medal for surviving the Xenic War. Craxus and Sarah noticed that with the war and all that they fell and love. They got married in space, on the space station Omega. Earth was free for the next lifetime for their kids, kids, kids.
