Something else entirely jumped into Aduinliun space. Though their silhouette might suggest Imperial design at a distance. Close up they were altered. Each were white instead of the Imperial shades of black and gray. The hull seemed to move and convulse. Several protrusions that resembled insect antenna were space out across the hull. Though they did not send out any radio waves or other forms of sensor frequency.
The ships slowly made their way across space to the planet's orbit. Suddenly the missile ships fired their missiles all across the planet trying to canvass as much territory as possible. However they weren't targeted at anything in particular. Most missing anything of value and all of them failed to explode.
Several of the smaller Nymph class ships descended into the atmosphere and began crashing all over the planet.
Only a few minutes after their crash did things began to detach themselves from the hull of the ships. Though the majority of the white mass remained with the ships. Feeding off the generators, increasing it's mass slowly. The creatures began their search of all living live on the planet. Searching for the complex organisms first.

"My Lady more Imperial ships just jumped into the system!! Their... what the hell...", one of the com officers soon stated as he noticed they were working in formations not that of the Empire.
Soon to her shock something unexpected happen, with the instant attacks he soon was evident these were not Imperials.
"Deploy the military do not allow these things near any of the civilian sectors!! As well prepare for a planet wide evacuation of civilians!! As well begin anti ship combat with our Heavy Rail Cannons!!", Danessa soon ordered.
Soon the rail cannons came to life from their reinforced bunker, seeing as the enemy ships were within range they soon at various points when they can fired on the enemy. Meanwhile on the surface the Aduinliun Guard came to life they soon moved in armored vehicles, tanks and other gear all setting up to protect any civilians close to the entities. The civilians soon began to be moved to the evacuation ships of Aduinliun, though it would take time for the people to leave.

The ships in space maneuvered in a way that suggested the entity controlling it was not familiar with it. So several ships were struck by the planet side rail guns. The rounds shredding through the white matter around the ships and striking the hull of the ship. Yet none of the ships seemed at all deterred.
Meanwhile on the ground the white matter had taken on a round form and were rolling toward the Aduinluin troops. Suddenly half of them flying into the air as blobs and landing on and around the troops. Each one trying to climb inside them, whether it be through an opening, or even the pours of the sky. If not forcing away armor.
In places that had shelters. They managed to slowly squeeze through the tiniest gaps in the shelters. Often unintentionally clogging the ventilation systems before finding their way in.

As the battle begun the troops were for a moment caught off guard but knew their duty and began firing on the unknown enemy. As the ground battle commenced reports of the entity entering various shelters and began to suffocate civilians in some places. Lady Danessa Aduinliun continued to assess the situation as this was a totally new enemy and unexpected.
"My Lady?", one officer soon asked.
"It seems the Empire might have a new biological weapon, that we may not heard about. At the rate this is going... the entire planet will be engulf in a few hours. Hrmm they didn't even target any of our military installations so possibly they were created to exterminate human life? Could the Empire began researching on Tetranni technology as well?", Danessa soon said as reports continued to come in with the Home Guard being overwhelmed in some parts of the various front lines on the planet.
"How long til reinforcements arrive?", Danessa soon asked.
"Not long now but there is a chance this planet will be lost.", another officer reported.
"I see we will hold off from launching those evacuation ships long as possible going up will only lead to those ships destruction. A world is replaceable as my brother would say. We must gain as much intel on these alien races for Grand Alliance can know how they act to make a good countermeasure.", Danessa then ordered, who knew Gransela with the Blackguard have been experimenting in biologically creating weapons, based on Tetranni technology.
Meanwhile the Heavy Rail Cannons continued to fire at the enemy ships in orbit, goal to destroy it much as possible.

The ships in space seemed undeterred by the heavy rail gun fire. The white matter surrounding the ships replicating quickly and filling in the places where they penetrate.
Down on the planet's surface. Those the white matter made contact with suddenly turned on their allies. Though they did so in a haphazard manner. As though they didn't quite understand how to work their own bodies. Even so, every ally the Aduinluin lost, came up as an enemy.
Meanwhile the places where the ships had crashed were growing. Though the ships had crashed landed. Their reactors remained intact and the alien matter fed from the energy source. Growing out into the wilds it began eating the vegetation in the area as well as the water.

As the battle on the surface began to chaos a bit a panic, Lady Danessa continued to watch from her screen recording everything that was going in.
"So what we can tell... the beings we are fighting can self regenerate and with the latest report take over anything practically. Still something is off how are they doing this? I need as many surveillance drones to check out the crashed landings where these things are coming from. No matter what try to hold the line we need as much information for the Grand Alliance we we can get.", Lady Danessa soon ordered as the battle on the surface wasn't going well.
Dots showing on radar of various friendly and hostiles kept changing into more hostile then ever before. Even if Aduinliun fell if they could simply get this information out to the Grand Alliance command the battle here wouldn't be for nothing. It will not be for long before the Aduinliun Guard's morale will begin to deteriorate, as the loses their experiencing now hasn't been seen since the Tetranni Conflict. She is too young to exactly experience it but the death toll on the terrestrial portion of the war was extremely high.
The Anti ship continued to fire into space as some civilians began to be put on the few evacuation ships left.

The various sites where the ships had crashed had taken on a different form. An almost tree like form. If trees looked completely white and convulsed creepily. Various objects began to detach themselves from these 'trees'. Taking on the look of large spores floating through the sky. Spreading throughout the planet into the wilds and toward the cities.
Meanwhile in one of the main cities. A shelter suddenly burst open from the inside. The people having been consumed used to create larger entities that take on a humanoid form twelve feet tall.
In space the ships had changed somehow. Their shape slightly different, rigid almost scale like, they hardened. The railgun fire managed to crack into the armor, but not as deeply into the ship proper.

As the Drones launched towards the crash sites, lady Danessa was soon reported on there was a giant appeared in one of the cities.
"What in the world?!! Why would the Empire create such bio weapons?!!", Lady Danessa commented, as more and more information showed something not even blackguard nor Tetranni Dominion have managed to do.
As the soldiers on the ground were being pushed back they tried to fire on enemies as one by one they fell. Due to not even having power armors didn't help matters as the Guard were told to retreat to another battle line. It wouldn't be long now before Aduinliun would be overran with the monsters. Whatever they were they were for sure knew it was meant to wipe out all living on Aduinliun.
The Drones soon were on their way towards the trees, Lady Danessa at least needed this information before she would go to the Aduinliun escape ship. The Rail Cannons continued to fire but now noticing, the ships unable to do as much damage.

Some of the spores grafted onto the drones. Very slowly seeping into them. Though they did managed to reach the white trees. Each one seem to pulse and occasional expel more spores. After a few moments however the power cell of the drones was being fed off of. What started as a small spore became larger and larger until it depleted all the power.
The giant in the city roared out. A few other heads formed. Some taking on the form of the inhabitants it had consumed. Each one moaning, wailing, or shouting out in all directions. The creature began thrashing about the city and started heading for the nearest living people.

The Battle continued to rage on as more and more casualties mounted. All reports to Lady Danessa had been troubling, with no way to stop this tide of invasion. Against other humans they could stand a chance but against this type of warfare? Aduinliun Guard were not trained for this. As the Drones started to get near where the crash site, soon they began to lose them one by one but a few managed to get close enough which observed what was going on exactly. What was seen was weird to normal people the crash sites were no longer crash sites but tree like entities. Soon the last drones were lost with all information gather Lady Danessa made a choice.
"Have all evacuation ships prepared to launch?", She soon asked.
"Yes they will be very soon though some areas have tried to keep people calm.", one of the officers soon said.
"As it seems Aduinliun is lost... we need this information make as many copies of all information. If we can connection into the Galactic Network still upload this information now. Prepare my ship and that of Lord Poseidra's ship we are to leave Aduinliun the reinforcements should be here soon. Good Luck.", Lady Danessa said to the officers who were expected to stay behind.
The Rail Cannons continued to pound into space though not as effective as before the 24 sites have yet to fall yet.

The wildlife on the planet had either breathed or ingested the spores from the trees. Slowly their tissues became consumed. In some cases the alien spores would integrate with the brain and simply controlled them.
The spores also gathered on the spots where the railguns had been firing. Searching out their power source. Accumulating until they formed a larger enough creature to get to them.
Meanwhile in the cities they were drawing to a close on the last pockets of resistance. With their numbers ever growing and their advance relentless in the face of the now limited opposition.

As the battle raged on the planet the Aduinliun Guard were on its last legs. Already large portion of the populace who were unable to get into other shelters or even the evacuation ships didn't help manners. Lady Danessa moved swiftly to the Aduinliun personal ship where the remainder of the House were already inside ready to go. The Poseidra ship was right next to it ready for take off, as she soon entered the ship one of the officers on the ship soon came to her.
"My Lady we are detecting multiple jump points coming into the system!!", the officer soon shouted.
Danessa soon stopped and ran towards the bridge of the ship to see what was going on.
In space sixty jump points would be soon detected and suddenly a large fleet of Granselan Ships entered the system. The Granselan Admiral took note of the Imperial like ships attacking Aduinliun and already began formulating plans. But as soon he was going to demand the Imperials to leave the system a audio message soon came up from the planet.
"I am Lady Danessa Aduinliun, to Granselan forces in space the planet is lost. The enemy we are fighting is something we have not seen in our lifetimes I suspect its an new Imperial Bio Weapon used against us. We are sending all information on what we seen to your ships. We as well request to cover the evacuation ships and ours to escape to Granselan space." the audio message soon read as the information was sent to the Granselan ships.
"Hrmm so the Empire managed to make their own bio weapons as well... it would complicated manners. With the new information we received we will help with covering the retreat of the remaining inhabitants of Aduinliun. Send a message to Duke Aduinliun of the situation at the March of Darcy as well to the Grand Alliance HQ. All hands level one battle stations!!", The Admiral announced.
Soon the 45 Recktor Class Cruisers were in formation soon began firing their particle guns and missiles towards the Hail Class and Rain Class looking ships; with a total of 360 particle guns and 360 medium missiles. The Ancasta II Class on the other hand targeted the Warbirds and fired their first wave of medium guided missiles (720) and unguided rockets (360).
During this the Rail Cannons began to fire another time at the ships in orbit in hopes to do a cross fire effect at the ships in orbit. The Evacuation ships were prepared to launch as well the Poseidra and Aduinliun ship. They all began to final countdown to launch.

The hail and rain class ships, having expended their entire munitions to seed the planet, could do little as they were struck. The combined fire managing to pick away at the alien hull and destroy the internal components of the ships.
The warbirds fired a return of missiles before receiving a similar fate to the missile ships. However the missiles that did manage to connect with the opposing ship, did not explode, instead the white matter expanded onto the hull and tried to eat it's way into the ship.
While the ships were destroyed, the white matter that scattered around from the explosion reformed, joining the Fortitude Class ships and belt class ships. Increasing the mass around the ships. Each of them returning fire on the enemy ships.

The incoming fire soon hits the fleet due to only 9 ships though having large guns only 11 Recktor Classes are destroyed by the return volley. The Granselan Admiral soon noted the missiles that hit didn't explode and soon orders missiles to detonate before they hit. The Fleet once again returned fire with the entire might of their weapons of particle guns and missiles to destroy the remaining ships in orbit. With this done the word was given and the few evacuation ships, the Poseidra ship, and Aduinliun launched into space to escape the planet. Those who remained on the planet were given their fate. For some killed themselves others continued fighting until they too died. It was a day when Aduinliun fell and to the Grand Alliance they were not aliens but a bio weapon 'officially'.

The ships accelerated into the hail of gun fire. The white matter smattering away or being obliterated by the concentrated fire until the regular hull of the ship was exposed and subsequently shredded. The ships began to explode from the numerous attacks upon them. The belt class ships specifically are destroyed. But only half of the Fortitude Battleships were destroyed in the melee. The three remaining trying to ram the enemy ships as they fired wildly in every direction.
Aboard one of the Fortitude Battleships. The missiles were altered, instead of a standard warhead, the explosive is removed and more white matter is placed. The outer shell of the projectile is shaped into a long spike that proceeds to harden. Firing them out at the nearest enemy ship.
Meanwhile. The missiles that had struck the enemy fleet. Had began to attack any electrical juncture or weapon opening. Getting into the ship's nook an crannies. It would seem like a mere drip to anyone inside, but it might also short out systems as it does so.
Down on the planet the last vestiges of the survivors are afforded up to the large walking humanoid. It's mass and it's rage increasing. However it departs the city centers once all living life is consumed. Heading out into the wilds.
