Protector Inca, the other senior military staff of the commonwealth and some others including the head of CAS (The commonwealth's space agency) and head of the Red Serpent (The commonwealth's aid and medical organisation) were looking over the recon. It was now clear it was not an atomic blast so Sea lord Za had ordered his boomer back to normal status, much to everyone's relief, not least of all their sea lords (captains).
Dr Lainia, who was not best pleased having been dragged out her bed by two warriors, figurative speaking. Having her and Air lord Ja in the same room was never a a pleasant experience as the pair hated each-other. Dr Lainia hated Ja as she didn't think the air force had any business putting military stuff in orbit and thought the air force was full of egotistical idiots. Ja on the other hand didn't see why CAS had to exist at all as anything other than a branch of the air force and CAS was full of hippy weirdos that couldn't cope with the real world . The fact they both knew each-others opinions really didn't help, basically CAS and the air force were in massive turf war.
“It's not a meteor and we have multiple smaller impacts” Dr Lainia said. “Looks like a craft of sorts, you lost anything recently?” Air lord Ja smirked at Dr Lainia. “Hmmm well it's not one of yours, as it seems to have manage to get into space...How is your rocket program going, I hear you see more striping at your launch facility than cheep teerie night club.” Going for a dual insult and racial slur. “LADIES! Please” Inca said exasperated by the pair “Look I would rather be back home than listening to you two, it's not often I get the chance to go home.” “And screw the brains out the leader of your nations main religion?” Dr Lainia replied sarcastically. “Hey makes a change from organised religion screwing you.” Ja smirked. “Focus people” Sea lord Za said, this was getting very old very fast, he almost wished it had been a nuke. “Ja is right, I suppose she had to be about something once in her life.” Dr Lainia. “Alien?” “Looks like nothing we have on record.” “Like wise.” Ja interjected. “Any survivors?” Lae Intadro dr the head of the red serpent enquired. “Well they have detected movement on the ground, so possibly or it could be natives or...” Ja went quiet. “We must offer them aid as soon as possible! The first few hours are critical!” Intadro shouted. “We have no idea what we are dealing with, they could be anything.” Inca said, he was not one for putting his troops in harms way. “But think of all the Techno...people that might be in trouble!” Ja shouted excitedly. “I agree, I will send up some of our engineers, they might be able to help them fix, or at least minimise damaged to what they have left” Dr Lainia replied her tail thrashing, she was stuffed if she was going to let the air force get their hands on what ever tech lay about up there. “People, this had better be good.” came a voice that caused them all to turn round. The military chiefs stood up and saluted. “Sit down for goddess sake, it's too early for that.”
Prime minister Eye Salato en had appeared on the large screen at the end of the conference table, she look dishevelled, like she was just out of bed, her ears were pointed is different directions and her fur and hair was all over the place. The fact she was wearing a green dressing gown and little else suggested that this was true.
“Downed alien craft up north, there is evidence of survivors. We must send aid...” Intadro replied, her large ears twitching. “We must ensure that they are protected and no harm comes to their...them.” Ja interrupted. “I see Dr Lainia there, since it came from space she's in charge until or if there is someone to talk to there. I'll leave it up to you to get everything together. Oh yeah you still up for poker next quarter day?” Salato said, It wasn't the first time the commonwealth had, had to deal with aliens, so she was not exactly overwhelmed.
“Will do” Dr Lainia smirked “See you then, night.”
“Well it's strict...what ever night.” With that Salato's image disappeared from the screen.
Dr Lainia smiled as Ja squirmed, she knew just how much Ja would hate taking orders from her.
“First order of business do we have a means to communicate with them?” Dr Lainia said her grey speckled black feline tail twitching.
“Angle 17 is near the main impact sight, it has an emergency analogue transmitter, short range and short wave but should be detectable. But if anything so much as blinks at it they will get out of there.” Ja sighed.
Inca clearly said “I will not put any of my people, even the air force in a position where they are under more risk than they have to be.” his tail twitching.
“Look all I say we do is try and talk to them...but what language..Cycle threw ours and then into others.” Dr Lainia replied scratching her muzzle.
“So what is the message? I'm a warrior, I don't kno... ” Inca asked.
“'Greeting from the Royal Commonwealth, we wish to offer logistical, material, technical, sapientiarian* and medical aid. If you require we can offer protection to your stricken craft and people. Please acknowledge.” Intadro interrupted.
“Good as any, Right translate that into all our languages and Calie(1). What ever, if any they reply in we talk to them using.” Dr Lainia smiled.
Angle 17 started to transmit, the pilots were worried as this would surly give away their position and well existence. If anything came near them they were under ordered to flee the scene as quickly as possible as they were unarmed, speed and stealth were their only defence.

Alueza shivered all over when the signal hit her, the Venoms also detecting something and turning toward the location they suspected it was at, and there it was: a plane. "Command, we have confirmed aircraft in the area, permission to persue and chase away?" "Negative... just keep to the guard ring, if they show hostile intent, shoot them out of the sky" says Alueza, trying to make some sense of the language that was transmitted toward her location, sadly, to no avail, as within all the languages of the Unity, that wasn't one of them! "Don't people speaka Anglic anymore..?" she asks in annoyance, sending a reply in Anglic, Germanic, Hebraic and Norskr, hopefully they would find some sort of link that could be understood. Message: Acknowledged, I think. We are in a bit of trouble and need help with medical personnel, supplies, engineers and, if you would be so kind, dropping ice powder on the outside sections of the crash site to help aid in cool down. We will not attack, unless hostile intent is displayed on your accord. The Hangar also produced a chinook-like craft that looked like some sort of tanker, the blades of the craft beginning to spin up before the inerta drive began to lift it up and out of the hangar bay, the craft making a direct bee-line for the river to apparently gather water for the forest fires and burning lands around the ship. ----- Yaha sighed and settled down into the boat as shi noticed some unrest around the boat crews... which didn't bode well for the Wolfess, causing hir to look up and toward Jessa with a questioning look, practically asking 'what's wrong with you people?'. Shi then sighed and cradled the little Cross Fox in hir arms as shi waited for something to happen... and hopefully wouldn't end in a firefight between lord who knows. ----- Anglic: English Norskr: Old Norse and Norweigean mixed Hebraic: Hebrew Germanic: German

Dr Lainia looked shocked she said "That's zionic...The last one comes from Zion...how? We know they were lost, but not that lost..."
"So can we talk to them?" Intadro interrupted.
"Well...call zion give me queen Ester" Dr Lainia shouted.
---
A little passed "Yes, is going on?" Queen Ester asked she was the only leader of the only human people of the commonwealth.
"Can you understand this?" Dr Lainia asked sending her the message.
"Kind of..I think they are asking for aid, I'm not sure." Queen Ester looked like she had been dragged out of bed...well in fact she had had to do that herself and was not all that together. The People of Zion were more than three thousand years divorced from other Hebrew speakers.
Zion was strictly speaking not yet part of the commonwealth. Her odd dialect of Hebrew was likely to be difficult to understand, but the commonwealths reaction less so.
She said "We are sending aid in all the forms I have been able to understand and others that the people of the commonwealth offer. We are sending aid."
The commonwealth sent it via Viking SOTOL aircraft, they started to move out of their northern base. Behind them came tilt rioter craft, most were white with the emblem of the red serpent on the side. The commonwealth were not going to send people in totally unarmed, but the military medics would go in first, along with tents and fresh water. The military waited to see what happened.

(Just a note, they can land in the hangar bay of the ship, which is what I suspected you wished to do) The Medics would be greeted by a semi-deserted hangar bay besides the people working to free the craft from their wreckage, and to salvage what they could from the ones that were destroyed in the crash. There was injured lined up at the back wall of the hangar, being treated by the only two medics that could be spared into this section of the ship. "Damn it, STAY WITH ME BOY!" barks a Hybrid in Anglic, growling as she fought with the bleeding, silver-like blood spilling out onto the floor of the hangar, even though it did have a red tinge to it as well. "You are NOT dying today!" she adds, finally getting the bleeding from the Avian under control, panting and keeping pressure on the wound. The first thing that they would notice about her, and the other medic was that they wore black uniforms, even though the secondary coloring was different, the primary color was still black. A few of the mechanics did wander from the scrapped craft to try and get a better look at the outsider craft, a bit curious at how it even worked, even one of them muttering hir intention on one day dismantling such a thing and putting it back together piece by piece. ----- Blair perked his ears when he heard that Alueza had called for help, and apparently, they had arrived in record time, and even more of it was on the way. "Jeez... okay people, get the wounded out of here, we are going to lock down Engineering until further notice!" he says, helping pick someone up off of the floor to help move them out. He then tapped a special earring on his left ear to activate a communications channel. "Attention all personnel, any wounded that can be moved is to be moved to the Hangar Bay" he says before wincing when his shoulder went out again. "And any internal hands to help the wounded in Engineering would be greatly accepted, thank you!" he adds, before the channel was closed, letting Alison grab the wounded engineer in place of him.

Outside Stidham's Office
There was a crash, and a horrendous screaming, as a lovely wooden desk, with trinkets, paperweights, and intricate designs, was thrown out of the three story office window of Stidham's personal office. It shattered into many pieces, nearly smashing a nearby couple into the pavement.
Stidham stood, staring out of the window, panting, his arms felt like they were on fire...
After several minutes, he calmed down and said, "So...more planes?"
The aide, a young wolf, stood staring at the War Minister, his jaw dropped.
"Well?"
"Y-yes sir. They are focusing around the impact site sir. A-And they seem to be broadcasting......something."
"Have...the Tinisians gotten back to us yet?"
"No sir."
"Well...assuming that they aren't...then that means.....it doesn't matter..."
Stidham began pacing back and forth, his feet crunching the shattered glass that didn't end up outside.
"You tell those radar control bastards, that I want them to use the transmitter towers...the highpower ones, for emergencies? I want you to tell them, to give those bastards a message for me. Now you write this down."
The aide picked his clipboard up off of the floor, and nodded.
Stidham took a breath, and began:
"Attention, unauthorized craft currently in position above the 'meteor impact crater.' You are illegally breaching Aatuylva's airspace, and are being politely asked to leave. We understand that while we currently have nothing that can hit your craft, you must understand that until you approach the diplomatic branches, we must assume you are using said craft for acts of espionage, and for bombing runs against civilian targets. If you are not seeking war, it is suggested that you leave immediately before we are forced to make the decision for you."
"Is..that all sir?"
"I want that broadcasted until they leave, in Aatuylvan, and get someone from the Majiin to say it in Tinisian, hopefully they'll get the message."
"And..if they don't, sir?"
"Then open fire. Even with the rockets. It has no chance of hitting them, but they'll understand that."
--------------------------------------------
Aaturiin
One of the gunships pulled down, almost landing on Jessa's boat. The wind whipped around him as it got close, and he could see that this one was an Air Cavalry model...the side gunner was frowning at him.
"What do you want?"
"Under the orders of Lady Commander Tiam, you are hereby relieved of command pending an investigation."
"What."
"You will proceed on your present course, but any and all contact with the outsiders will cease until the area is secure and the Lady Commander arrives."
Jessa bristled, but there was nothing he could do...thankfully, he would still be able to give the wolfess a ride to where she was headed....

The Viking craft noted the hanger bay and broadcast in Zoinest (Hebrew..well a dialect of) "We request permission to land within you craft. We have medical supplies and healers. Please confirm."
The Viking's were heading that way any way, the commonwealth's odd charitable nature was kicking in now. The state was very capitalist, but the people were less so, the pilots saw a downed craft and had to help. Money was not an issue now, life was especially to the military important in these situations. They could be downed anywhere and hoped someone would help them.
The Red Serpent was trying to figure out just the size of the problem to mobiles the doctors and aid workers needed...CAS and the air forces had other concerns, though the former far less so, people mattered a lot more to them.

The commonwealth knew fine well the capabilities of aatuylva. They knew they were safe, but they decided to reply. In tinisian as they seemed to understand that.
"Greetings
We are simply aiding a downed craft. You would do the same, we have the means and will. If you were in the same situation you would do the same.
I would hope."

"Sir..."
"If they aren't leaving..."
"They've responded sir. They say they are sending..aid to the craft."
"....Well, do we have confirmation from any diplomatic representatives?"
"Sir?"
"Answer the question."
"...no sir."
"Then they are lying, and therefore giving ammunition to separatists. Mobilize our Air Corps, and 'escort' any within our reach out of the country. Send one of the Leviathans to the crash site, Deep Patrol loaded up. Some supplies, so it doesn't make us look like total assholes. Inform these unnamed outsiders that any on the ground will be allowed...an extended stay, until they send diplomatic representatives. And after InSec makes sure they aren't terrorists. Also drop the outsiders a line about...oh...I don't know, terrorists, wild animals, blacklisting...that might get their attention. And add a line about all official aid must first be inspected at the nearest Aatuylvan airbase, lest we assume they are funding terrorists and act accordingly. And tell Tiam that if she doesn't get there yesterday I will be wearing her hide as a coat!!"

"Confirmed, Comrades, please land and off-load your personnel, we are currently moving all wounded we can to the bay's back" says Alueza, seeming to understand the dialect of the language better than the previous message that they had sent. Alueza could also sense something amiss... but she didn't pay much mind to it. ----- Yaha covered the little Fox slightly before glaring up at the person that had landed, giving a low growl of annoyance toward the person, even though shi couldn't understand the language, shi guessed it wasn't anything good, or pleasant for the Wolf that was helping hir reach back home. "Very last resort, I'm shooting him..." shi mutters, looking at the little Fox when she whimpered up at hir. "Don't worry... there is a reason I am a SADAR hun, they can't win against me if worst comes..." ----- Liska's gunship came zipping into the hangar bay right behind the Cal medical transport, landing sideways in one of the latch bays as the engines immediately shut down, the left side of the gunship being potchmarked by bullet holes. "Those stupid idiots took a pot-shot at me!" shouts Liska in Germanic, pulling her helmet off and shaking her hair free as she tried to calm down. "Do what now?" asks Alueza when she appeared on the HUD display of the Sheppy's gunship. "Who shot at you?" she adds, hoping that no one besides the gunship was hurt. "Some sort of Anti-Air vehicle near the river, I lifted off and started to head back, before getting hit in the ass by bullets... I gave whoever it was something to think about!" says the Sheppy, pointing at a bullet hole in her cockpit. "The thing looked like it had been there a century, and could barely turn to keep up with my orbit, so, it was easy!" Alueza blinked once, then nodded and sighed softly. "This does not bode well... if people are crazy enough on this planet to shoot at us, then... what else are we facing?"

The Viking craft landed on mass, all fifteen of them, the warriors on board were passed by the medical personnel who raised arms before walking towards the wounded shouting "Healer" in the Zion dialect of Hebrew. The were quickly at work, they looked very strange as they were teerie, tall thin skunk like creatures, green furred where they should be black. Only a few spoke zion, even then it was not perfect.
They started to give aid and order the other military types about, mostly to move equipment. One was trying to find out who was in charge, this was not ideal for dealing with the injured, they had to set up a Mobile Operational Surgical Hospital, a MOSH. The red serpent were bringing one in with tents and everything else.
She shouted "Commander? lord? Somebody."

Aaturiin Airspace
Lyhng had never before been so afraid for his life. Not only were there people already at the crash site...but they almost got shot down on the way here!
He desperately hoped that those people he saw running around were more friendly...
--------------------------
Deep Patrol 4
Three weeks.
Three weeks they waited to see if it was a rebel controlled fort.
And then it opened fire on the unknown craft.
That was all they needed.
Minutes after the fort had opened fire, rocket artillery began to bombard it, in preparation for the assault by the units who had entrenched themselves so patiently.
The separatists must die.

They only knew that it wasn't the aatuylvaian firing on them and the RAF dropped a capsule over the aatuylvaian forces. It contained their aerial recon of the region in the hope they would target their fire away from the downed craft. They hoped they would see that no aggressive power would do such a thing and that they were not on the separatists side..well for now at the least.

Alueza grinned when she managed to get into one of the more 'unimportant' GPS satellites to see where they were, only to blink a few times at the sight of the Aatuylvan assault against a fortress. "Oookay..? This planet is either populated by Fudeal lords, or is just plain NUTS!" she says, shaking her head and beginning to look about the area around their crash site, laying eyes upon their own gunships, as well as an approaching unknown, which was the scientist craft. "V1, V2, we have inbound from the south-south-west, intercept and escort to the hangar, use Morse to send a message to them." she says, the gunships indicating they understood the order. The two gunships broke from their guard halo and began to approach the incoming chopter, a morse coded message being beamed into the comms system of the chopper once they were close enough: Attention unknown aircraft, you are hearby ordered to proceed to the hangar bay of our craft, and land until further notice. Failure to comply will be met with deadly force. ----- Tod heard the female calling for a commander, which, seeing he was an Elite Guard, was his job in a sense. "Yes, ma'am?" he asks, walking closer toward the female... even though he was 4'11", he was armored all over his body except for his neck and head in pristine ivory armor, that was also marked up in what looked like holy tabards of red, gold and black. "You're a medic, sent by an outside force, no?" he adds, his reddish eyes looking the person over for any hint of a weapon. Liska groaned and slid out of the gunship, helping out with the movement of the wounded to the designated area, and letting those that were fine go help out elsewhere where they could. "All crews recovered, sadly the diseased were vaporized with the Pods, and all equipment recovered as well is present and accounted for" she says, mostly to herself, and to the ship's A.I. if she was listening to her. ----- Somewhere near the east boarderThree new radar signatures would be picked up entering Aatuylvan airspace, heading for the crash site as well, though they were in a straight line, it looked like a golf ball on the radar screen, almost too small to be noticed. If one was within the area of these objects, they would see two Blackhawk Helis and a Tanker Chinook heading in the direction of the crashed stellar craft, all of which were painted black and had no markings except for a sun-like marking on the side of the craft, and the runner lights to warn other aircraft that there was something there. ----- Yaha heard the commotion up ahead and blinked a few times, perking a brow and looking at Jessa again, as if asking if he knew what was going on. From what shi could tell, there was a war going on up ahead... which spelt trouble for them if it was so, as well as an unneeded delay in reaching their destination.

The young fox was carrying paperwork up to Stidham's office...
He dropped everything out of surprise when the door slammed open, its hinges rattleing.
"FUCK IT ALL!!! I'm getting DRUNK!!!"
He proceeded to storm out of his office, knock the fox into the wall, and mutter curses on his way down, pushing another aide down the stairs. The fox looked into the office, and the staffer in there just shrugged, and said "He said it's Tiam's problem."
----------------------------
Jessa could hear the noises of battle, and his blood rose.
Something good was going to happen...
"Alright. Will you provide us escort upriver until my charges have reached your destination?"
"Yes."
Jessa nodded, and ordered his men to restart the engines as the gunships lifted up in the air.
------------------------------
The rebels in the fort were growing increasingly desperate under the bombardment, and had resorted to using shoulder launched missiles, and had begun to return fire on the Deep Patrollers who were rushing to them under the cover of artillery fire.

The pilot of the science heli couldn't make heads or tails of it...he wasn't some damned outsider! The pilots though...he saw them maneuver to either side of his heli...
Dammit.
"Listen up...they look like they want us to follow them...I have to do what they say, they will probably shoot us down."
Lhyng was terrified. He wasn't a soldier! And now he was a prisoner!
He could only watch as the pilot began to fly in sync with these outsiders...
