The Royals remaining in the room rose and cheered. Victoria stepped down from the throne and walked forward and hugged Jon. She whispered in his ear, “My babies can hear my thoughts. Your sword released my mind and my body. Thank you, Jon.”
Jon smiled and pulled Molly up. He hugged her again and said, “Are you up to a wedding?”
“Yes, I am.”
Victoria looked at Juliette and raised her eyebrows. Juliette came over and hugged Molly, “I’ve wanted to wear that dress since the reception. Let’s go swap.”
“Only if you’ll be the maid of honor.”
Juliette said, “You’re killing me. But I’ll do it.”
Molly and Juliette ran back up the aisle and Jon linked with Teg and Dern, “You need to get here.”
“Why.”
I’m about to be married.”
“To who?”
“Who do you think?”
“If it’s not Molly we’re bringing the troops to drag you out of there.”
Jon shook his head. “You have always known the best path.”
Dern yelled, “It’s Molly!!! Ask the Queen if the Regiment can attend?”
Victoria laughed out loud, “The more the merrier. There’s plenty of room now.”
Jon laughed and said, “They have one hour to get here.”
Dern said, “See you in fifty minutes.”
Jon looked at his parents and they were smiling. Robert said, “I agree with your brother. If it wasn’t Molly, I’d drag you out of here.”
Jon stared at his father, “How did you hear my brothers?”
Sara smiled, “We’ve always been telepathic. We just don’t show off with it.”
Jon started laughing and heard the music grow louder. Much louder.
The End
Excerpt from:
The Fight for Creation – Scout Warrior
The Grogat Fleet Controller watched the Swarm Fleet enter the atmosphere of the planet they were attacking and heard, “We have an Enemy Fleet in the home system!”
He stood and yelled, “Enter the return coordinates. Notify me when all ships are ready. Thirty five seconds later his fleet arrived ten hours out from the planet and watched the massive explosions taking place around the planet. He whipped around pointing a hand laser at his drive controller and yelled, “Why have you stopped here.”
The drive controller yelled, “There is a field preventing us from jumping closer! All our fleets are stopped here!”
He spun around and looked at the display and saw hundreds of thousands of ships appearing around his fleet. “Start us moving in at maximum speed.” The twenty thousand ships in his fleet hit full thrusters and accelerated toward the inner planets. More than a million ships fell in behind his fleet and raced toward the planet being attacked.

The Grogat Fleet raced away from the planet toward the enemy fleet which turned and moved away at a matching speed. The Fleet Controller watched and said, “Increase speed. Prepare to jump to the enemy’s coordinates.”
“We have ten thousand enemy transports jumping in next to the planet and entering atmosphere.”
“Jump back to the planet, NOW!”
“Our jump drives are inoperative, Controller. There is some kind of frequency being broadcast that is suppressing the drives.”
The Fleet Controller looked at his display and saw two things at once; thousands of Grogat ships were appearing at the limiting band and the enemy fleet had stopped and was now roaring in on his ships at a tremendous closing speed. “Slow down and fire from formation.” The Fleet controller watched his fleet begin to slow but the enemy fleet was on him in an instant and the battle degenerated into a ship to ship contest. The explosions of dying ships filled the sector where the two fleets slammed together.

Admiral Donaldson said, “I want four ships on each of the advanced Grogat Warships. Take them from behind when possible. Donaldson watched eight hundred of his main battleships explode as they approached the Grogat formations. The faster Algean Attack Craft split into two formations and went over and under the Grogat fleet and turned into the middle of the dark ships. Grogat ships began exploding in waves. The battle took on a new level of frenzy as ships fought to survive in the millions of beams and missiles haunting the killing ground.
The Fleet Controller looked at the secondary display showing the planet and did not see the transports. What he did see was tremendous explosions on the planet’s surface. His pilot jerked the ship vertical and came over the top of his ships. Six Algean ships roared in on him and he prayed the Empire’s fleets would arrive in time to save his ships. He could not retreat and leave the planet open to attack. He would survive or die holding this enemy away. The issue was settled ten seconds later when the surviving three Algean Attack Craft blasted the entire front half of the ship into rubble. The following explosion killed three more ships. Two of them were Bristone Warships.
