"Welcome Recruits to the IGSA "Big Dog" I am Admiral Midas, you will find that this vessel is the only one of its kind in the fleet, also you will find that this is a relaxed vessel, I only have a few simple rules here : one when addressing me or any other high ranking officer that is on the bridge do NOT address us with our rank, believe me ladies and gentleman when I say we are all the same, two follow the laws on here as if they were the same on your home planet, mainly the major ones, three when the ship is on high alert report to your stations immediately, this goes for any pilots I want you in your ship ready to take off at a moment's notice, weapon control, engineering and medical personal are to report to their stations as well, any other hands are to report to a superior right away, and finally number four I order everyone to be social or you will be cleaning the kitchen, and I am pretty sure you know how big the kitchen is and how many personal are aboard this vessel. Welcome to the family." Said Midas

"Commander they are all yours" I said as I walked out of the briefing room to the bridge

My name is Matthusia Irida Anos or more commonly known as Midas, I am in charge of the IGSA 0157 Colossus Destroyer or its name sake "Big Dog" after its creator...me, I started in R&D and worked my way up the ladder, of course being the only German Sheppard in high command really makes me think about how I got here, being 5'5 and only packing 120 lbs of mostly muscle, it amazes me of the competition I had to get here all bigger than me, anyway the IGSA or Intergalactic Space Alliance has sent me over 2000 more ensigns only because I can house them for training, which brings me to my pride and joy the IGSA 0157 "Big Dog" Colossus Destroyer, over 10,000 km long and 500km wide she is by no means a small ship, loaded to the teeth with weaponry, mostly state of the art and updated daily by engineering, being one of many new ship the IGSA has assigned us a training mission unfortunately they will not release the details about it to me just warp co-ordinances , anyways time to get back to work.

"sir long range sensors detect hostiles at destination, communications has already hailed them but no response" said Captain Samari Meil Anos, My sister, a cute Doberman pincer with a real attitude if you piss her off, believe me i made that mistake once.

"Oh fuck they set up an ambush for us, Sylvester put the ship on red alert, shields up" I said as I press a button on my com.

"Engineering this is Midas what's the status on engine five?" I ask

"Engine five is still down, one through four still operational, but I do not recommend using the rail guns without engine five sir" replied Master Engineer Ja-Maris

Engine Five is one of my many new power generators installed in the ship but the main power servers have been rejecting it for some error that the engineers won't tell me about.

"Dually noted fire up "Big Bertha" then report to the hangers" I said

"Big Bertha" is a very reliable power generator I had installed, I only use it in events where I need more power then what my current engines can produce to activate the rail guns.

"Yes sir" he replied as the com quite opening a channel to weapons control

"Weapon control this is Midas prep all available defence measures, and prime all rail guns as soon as bertha is online" I said

"Yes sir" replied weapon master Tarry Draconian Sal the second or known on the bridge as Puff the trigger happy dragon, great guy, good friend but he has been avoiding me lately, I wonder why?

"Warp emergence in 5...4...3...2...1" counted Sylvester

No sooner did we exit we were hailed with a fire storm of everything, of course it all being in training mode

"Hey puff, set training mode and open fire" I said into the comm

"Yes sir" he replied with a little disappointment from not being able to use the real ammo

"Sir we are being hailed" said Sam

"On screen" I replied

"Admiral my name is Saph, as you can see you are surrounded by twenty of the best warships in the fury sector, I will order a cease fire if you power down yours ship now, if not you will be destroyed" said Saph

"Sorry but I don't give that easily" I replied with a smile, that must have pissed him off because the annoying "tinging* sound got louder against the ships shields

"Very well your funereal, all ships open fire with everything you got" he said as he cut communications

"Sam tell James to deploy all bombers and fighters, Big Dog Rail Gun Authorization Alpha-Gamma-0-1-5-7-Victor-2" I said

"Authorization accepted, rail guns in training mode awaiting targets" said the Big Dog

"Sly open a comm line to all pilots for me" I said

"Comm line open sir" he replied

"Attention All pilots your crafts are equipped with C753 Transponders, your mission is to paint every enemy ship and get back to Big Dog immediately, weaponry control will provide covering support" I said to all pilots in the field of engagement.

The best thing about having a large vessel is the amount of pilots on board, within seconds of ending my transmission all crafts return to the hangers

"Sir this is Alpha Leader all ships painted" he said

"Thank you alpha leader, get your ships prepped for the next deployment" I replied

"Yes Sir" he replied before the com cut

"Big Dog confirm twenty ships are signalling red" I said

"Confirmed twenty ships signalling red " said the Big Dog

"alright now my favourite part of this battle, Big Dog open fire with all rail guns" I said

"Targets acquired, initializing firing sequence on all rail guns" said the Big Dog

In that exact moment you can hear nothing but silence as the rail guns load a shell and energize it, then to poetic movements of the firing pins releasing it into space hurtling it towards its final destination and finally the startling crack of the plasma bolts firing in unison, shredding its way across the galaxy to its partner in crime as the symphony of destruction is music to my ears, I shed a tear of joy as I watch the pretty lights and red dots disappear from screen, now the only ship left is the command ship that hailed us, and I hear the Big Dog reloading the rails for next fire, bargaining time!

"Big Dog Hold fire!, Sam hail them" I said
