Here begins the epic of Reynolds, Birch, and Stella. This is written in the form of a screenplay because I plan to animate it and do voice acting, much like the videos that captainsparklez did for fallen kingdom and revenge. Anyway, the story so far (the part that didn't fit into the screenplay.) Captain Reynolds, captain of the MAS (Mincraftian Ascension Starfleet) Kasai, has just made it out of a fierce conflict with the Dark forces of Herobrine, but just barely. The Rear Admiral in charge of the Fleet has gone down with the ship, leaving Reynolds as the highest ranking officer among the Third. He must make the decision for the entire Fleet now, until the chain of command can be restored. Our tale begins here-(ish) and continues on throughout these troubled times.

Open- observation deck, 2 crewmen, one, captain Reynolds, the other xo Birch. A computer hologram, an AI stands shorter than the 2 men, stricken with grief. A worried look crosses captain Reynolds.
Pan- fleet remainder, crippled and ... etc. Only 5 major ships remain, this ship being one, also damaged.
Pan- external ship. View full ship for what it's worth, not much anymore really...
Return to cap and xo.
Captain ____-I can't believe we made it.
Stella (computer holo)- just barely captain. Remember what we started as. This was the third fleet, pride of all of the armadas. And now, this...
XO- well cap, it's not the worst that could happen. We could have not made it out as well as we did.
Cap- Stella, damage report.
Stella- We have 5 working engines, all at 1/4 capacity, giving us minimal thrust. We have 2 operating backup generators, both on standby. Our main generator is running minimal as well, and we won't be getting out of a tight spot on just those.
Cap- Where can we get on just those.
Stella- I see 3 possibilities, not any of them very distinct places that we should stay too long at.
Cap- Continue...
Stella- We also have only 1 operating gun battery, emergency power only throughout the ship, and the bridge backup systems for startup have been severed by a clear shot from a mass driver. We have multiple holes I the hull, but aside from that, the integrity is fair. So far from the reports of the other AI's have been not as well off as ours. We apparently have been very well off after this last battle.
Cap- Well, that's the the only good news of the day.
Stella- And now the bad news. It's an 8 year trip to the closest one on the engine power that we have. And you both know what that means.
Both men- Full cryo-stasis...
Stella- Absolutely, gentlemen. Whole crew. And now, or we probably won't make it. The other ships can make it to just about any colony in the empire, but we won't fair as well. Nighty night boys...
