Rift in the universe

  Among the celestra prime today is a big day because today is it is recruiting day and a bunch of individuals amongst different societies and races will join us in showing us what they will bring to the Galactic Dominion.

  The Galactic Dominion has been around for millions of years it came into effect after a war and different diseases wiped half of the population and out the main purpose for the Dominion is to keep track of different societies among the stars and the Dominion is made up of different and diverse individuals amongst themselves. The Dominion is made up of 800 diverse members and six different ranks. Some of the ranks are new blood and that's newly recruited individuals that have joined and impressed but yet to move up in ranks and then there's the middle rank and that's the Sierra Dominion and they have proved themselves on ten or more missions and are heavily reliable. Then there's the highest rank which is Ambrosa Dominion and they have fought in wars and lead soldiers to victory.

  With the day being recruitment day the ship is surrounded by various spaceships and all of them are ready to be either picked or not or sent on a mission to prove themselves.

  All at once the one individual from each spaceship has been picked to represent their society.

  After hours of various spaceships surrounding the Galactic Dominions ship the individuals amongst the surrounding ships get teleported onto the Dominion. Once being teleported there are ninety five diverse individuals from across different pockets of space and they are teleported into a giant room with a podium in front and are surrounded by different flags representing the Galactic Dominion.

  After a few minutes of waiting and everyone getting to know each other the Captain steps go the podium and as he does so heads turn and silence fills the room. The Captain steps to the podium and his striking grey hair and bruises on his face very noticeable from years of combat he is wearing a brown jacket and black shirt and grey pants with a holster hanging from his legs.

  He steps to the podium and says "we have gathered you amongst the greatest board and class of men and women of diverse individuals from different pockets of the universe and everyone here understands that everyone here is from a different pockets and region in space and we understand that everyone here has something unique to offer which is why we will have an event showcasing each of your skills and what you need to work on, we chose each of you not because of who you are but for who you will become. My name is Tim o'hearn and I am the captain thanks you" he turns to step from the podium but he feels different and different in way where it feels like his skin is crawling and his insides are melting his eyes flicker but he steps from the podium and he is behind a black certain and he looks around he sees fellow veteran leadership approach he holds his stomach and is determined to make everything seem fine. The two of the veteran leadership approach him one a squirrel who dawns a spacesuit with teleport in and can float and his name is Bren Talveth and the other a bull who has ultimate leaping ability and he also dawn a spacesuit and his name is Rowan Kael. They both approach and Bren says in his little squeaky voice "we have signs of a space organization that is with hackers and has massive amounts of technology and the claim they want to steal some from us and also they have stole from different space organizations from across space.

  Bren says in his deep voice that "we picked up on the message twenty minutes ago we wanted to wait for the ceremony to be over"

  Tim says "well the ceremony isn't over and we shall meet and talk about this in about an hour and in that I would like you guys to keep researching"

  Both of the veterans walk away back to the lab and continue to search and research with the other twenty researchers of the ship.

  Once the veterans walk away and head back to the lab, Tim expresses pain in grunts and deep breaths and he leans against the walls. He takes slow steps along the wall and heads to the doctors office within the ship.

  As Tim goes through the halls he gets strange looks from fellow board members and he gets asked by one of his Ambrosa league members how is he doing and he says "fine thanks for asking" in a covered tone of pain.

  He steps onto an elevator and he leans onto the glass and a researcher and he asks everything is being conducted the way you want and everything is being figured out" the Captain remain silent and nods as he uncharacteristically leans against the glass. The member steps off and the elevator continues going down and makes its way to the doctors.

  After a slow twelve minute walk to the doctor he makes his way there and the sliding door opens and it is filled with wounded warriors from the past missions. He is leaning against the glass sliding door and his head feels like it is light and he looks to the left and sees one of his best fighters on a stretcher and looking at the ceiling and he was taken out in the last Battle by a blaster. Tim makes his way to one of the seats and he sits down and is breathing heavily and he is looking around and he takes off his brown leather jacket as he and covers his head so no one will see him in this state.

  As a doctor passes he grabs the rim of his blue shirt and says in a desperate voice "help me help me please I don't know what happening to me" the doctor is terrified and he says in a voice of realization "captain?" Tim says "yeah it's me, now help me"

  The doctor says follow me and brings out a wheelchair from the corner and Tim sits down in the chair still with the jacket drapes over his head not wanting anyone to notice him in this state.

  The doctor rolls Tim to the office and he staggers up from the chair and he sits on the doctors table and leans back as three doctors runs tests on him. They check his vitals and check his check his heartbeat and after nine minutes of test runs and collection of blood a doctor who brought him to the room and he sits down and has a look of sympathy on his face he says in a tone with deep breaths in between each word he says "alright I have some good but mostly bad news for you, bad news is we found through tests on the blood we collected from you that there is a venomous poison type substance that is going through your blood and you have a high chance of dying" Tim let's a deep seated groan of pain and from the news he just heard, the doctor continues by saying "we can give you a pill that probably won't do much and it will help fight some"

  The doctor hands Tim the pill and Tim stares at the pill for a bit and he takes it and swallows it. He stands up feeling just a bit better and he shakes off the cobwebs.

  As Time stands he is informed by the doctor "that again the pill only lasts for 18 hours after that come back and take another so you can sign off that you got it if not you will die from the venom going through your blood"

  Chapter Two: The First Trial of the new bloods

  The new recruits who had been standing there after getting done listening to Tims speech they are now motivated each person there looks with a face of determination and new found focus after a few seconds the recruiting management focuses on getting individuals in a training facility which is just a blank room with different halograms with a giant screen where they get observed by different members.

  There are ten rooms and one room is filled with a guy with blonde curly hair and a white spacesuit with angel wings and he steps into a large steel room after a few seconds of him taking a few breaths and putting on his game face he says "alright sir you have a total of five minutes to show what you've got and we'll observe" after that some halograms of large grey bruting monsters with space suits and some individuals with blasters coming at him.

  As the room gets filled he flies into the air and he grabs some guys with blasters and squeezes them with his arms and he slices some giants with his wings. The room is cleared the five minutes pass and he is not even exhausted he walks out of the room and he justs another guy goes in and he is a giant black wolf and he steps in and is told that he also has five minutes to impress and he is asked by the intercom what is one unique thing about yourself and that is that "I can sniff from light-years away" and then he brings out the claws and then he is in the room with halograhic hunters they are hiding in trees and he smells them and he kills them.

  He steps out of the room.

  A person who is from earth who was teleported here and there is nothing special about him, as he steps into the room his footsteps are spaced out and he just quivers because he never saw space like this and he never saw wolves are people with angel wings.

  When entering the room he gets asked to state one unique thing about himself he says and is alerted by the voice and he says "my name is brad and I work in a pizza shop"

  He looks at the glass panel and says "hey I don't know what i-" he is then cut off by a voice over the intercom saying "you have five minutes to impress"

  He gets presented a room of halograhic figures of him surrounded by a bright sunny day and he sees tall buildings and to him it looks like it is back home. After a few minutes of him being in paradise he is alerted by an alien invasion they are green and riding spaceships and they are blowing down buildings and he sees a little girl sitting eating ice cream on a bench on the side walk and he rushes over to save her and brings her into a shop.

  The halogram then shuts off and then the people observing applaud he steps out.

  As the new recruits stand in the open room a red siren goes off and there is a buzzer going off as well. Brad is terrified enough from being in space and standing around all of these unique characters and there is a voice coming from all around the ship and that is that there is an upcoming threat and all people should get ready for combat even new recruits.

  All the new recruits look at each other and ready for combat with looks of focus on their faces and brad just stands there and terrified.

  Brad says to the Dominion members going by grabbing guns "hey is there a chance I can get out of this" they ignore him and he just waves at them to get attention but is ignored again.

  He goes quickly to the residential living area and he opens a few doors and he sees some owls that can read and he runs away in terror. He walks runs to the bar on ship and is served by a snake and he face palms himself saying "oh God help get out of this" the snake comes over and give him the drink using its tail and Brads face goes is confused and yet this is the least weird thing to happen to him.

  He drinks and passes out in the bar.

  Chapter Three: The Ancient Whisper

  In the lab of the ship works unique life forms and they all alert the different people on the ship and they get as much information on this space crew as possible.

  As the scientists are working hard the Captain steps through the doors and asks "what is happening and what is the alert for".

  It is obviously for the ship that was stealing tech and they are coming for us, also on this ship we have seen some of the ships and planets they have stolen from and the scientists go through some of the pieces of cosmic space bending objects they hit their hands on before pausing on a silver helmet that can literally reshape reality.

  As the scientists explain the relic to Tim his eyes grow big and the scientists voice grows big.

  Tim says alright "how do I go to that and get my h- I mean I think we should lead a secret mission to that ship and get out hands on that"

  Bren says "alright but the leader of this ship sent us a message"

  A halograhic face shows up and eyebrows raise and Tims face goes to one of focus as the leader speaks he says "I am Tarek Vesh and I run the revenant union and we are intergalactic mercenaries we go planet to planet and obtain relics and things that satisfy my soul.

  He then leaves with a smirk on his face.

  Chapter Four: The Forbidden Expedition

  As the Captain walks throughout the hallway he is stopped by a fellow member of the council and he says "I don't think we should go on that mission"

  Tim says"why not"

  The fellow member of the council says "well that mission seems to dangerous "

  Tim let's out a cough

  "Well it's better than letting our entire crew bleed out over one tiny mission"

  Tim walks off and then he stops at the bar and sees a man passed out at the bar and says to him I want that guy on my team.

  He goes to the P.A system and goes to over the intercom and says "i am going to lead a space mission and I am going to lead a hand picked mission to the revenant union and they will feel our wrath"

  He then lists names of five individuals and he then names a person named Brad who has been passed out on the bar for thirty minutes.

  Chapter five: Helmet of Fate

  Each of the five individuals stand at the boarding center and are ready to be shipped into space.

  Tims face is war ready and he coughs and the other members like Brad ask him what is wrong as they go toward the Revenant Union ship.

  He says "nothing, nothing at all"

  They all land on the ship and blasters begin to shoot and from the big ship there is lasers and coming for backup. So what ends up happening is the four fire and Tim is hell bent on finding that helmet thinks it's the only thing that can save his life so he won't die.

  He disappears from the rest and he goes into a secret room alone with the helmet and he grabs it and it consumes him almost like it's seducing him and he he grabs it and he sees his reflection in the helmet

  He then says to it in a soft little voice that "you can save me"

  Brad who had been running from a gun blasts and he finds the captain holding the helmet and questions "what are you doing?"

  Tim says "if I put this on I will hold powers beyond imagination"

  He continues to look at his in the reflection and sees his reflection change "you and I both being human surrounded by diverse individuals from different parts of space gets annoying it's time I use some of the power of my own"

  He puts on the helmet slowly and his eyes roll in his head and he imagines a world of peace and is sacrificed by him to create peace"

  After a few moments Brad stands there experiencing this in horror.

  Tim wakes up from the vision and his skin is burned and he his skin and hair are gone and then he just passed out from death.

  Brad shakes his head and says "you ruled the universe and had the whole world in your hands you left it all for power"

  And he walks out and he just goes back to the ship along with the other four.

  Chapter Seven: The New Rise

  Brad and the scientists of the Dominion begin to rebuild and hide the helmet under a new council and each of the new recruits are promoted in a big ceremony and also celebrating a new generation of heroes among the stars.
