it remains only to shoot at his command and try not to miss the mark. In the event of a miss, the enemy may shoot you back. Therefore, to survive, you must shoot without a miss. And now, Phaeton will take everyone to his battle post. Forward!

- Your royal majesty!
- Yes, General Leah.
- What are the instructions? When do we take off?
- Take command of fleets. And the flight the sooner the better.
- Yes, I do.
- Attention all fleets! Report on readiness! Arichons!
- Ready! - the voice of the commander flagship Arihonov.
- Vampires!
- Ready, General!
- Query!
- Ready! - King Kverkov answered in person.
- Cheloveki!
- Ready, General Leah!
- Earthlings!
- Ready!

- First of all, I will ask the commanders of ships of absolutely all fleets to disconnect long-distance antennas. Not only the electronic disconnection of the transmitters, but also the mechanical disconnection of the power and antenna too. This is due to the secrecy of the start and movement. Enable can only be on my team.
- Commander, can I single out a separate communication channel so that only the Arihons can hear me?
- Yes sir. The purple flashing button on the communication hologram will allow you to give commands only to our fleet. Allies will not be heard.
“Thank you, commander,” Leah switched to the communication channel with the Arihons, “Dear Arihons,” she spoke in their language, “I am only talking to you now.” The command to disable long-distance equipment does not concern you. Only you. All others are required to turn off. And you have to watch the air. Especially for the transfer of humans. You can expect anything from the emperor. In case of detection of an unauthorized transfer, report urgently to me or to King Aziris.

- Now general information for everyone! - Lia returned to the general communication channel, - in battle, the shorter the team, the faster and more accurately it is executed. We have the heads of civilizations on ships. In order to observe etiquette and not humiliate us with the familiarity of our highly esteemed kings, as the commander of all the allied fleets I order each fleet to assign a call sign with which it will be possible to call this fleet. Inside the fleet at the discretion of the commanders, each ship will be under its own number. Thus, my teams will not be impersonal and will not be duplicated many times. I will be talking intergalactic. If it is necessary to give a command specifically to some ship or group from one fleet, I can switch to the native language of this civilization. And now the call letters.
- Arichons! Your callsign is Zeus! The call sign without tsiferok belongs to the distinguished King Arihonov. If I say Zeus 143, then this means that I appeal to the commander of the ship Arihonov who has the number 143. Query! Your callsign is Prometheus. Without a number, the call sign belongs to His Majesty King Kverkov.

Vampires! Your call sign is Dracula. No room of your choice.
- General Lia, our former flagship is flying with Phaethon. Let there be no number or number zero.
- Well, let it be according to you. Little people! Your call sign is the creator. Also the numbering of your choice. Earth callsign - Gorgon! Without the number, the call is mine personally. The rest are numbered. And a mandatory beacon from each ship so that I can see the deployment of absolutely all ships. Questions?
- Zeus - no questions.
- Prometheus - no questions.
- Dracula - no questions.
- Creator 1 - no questions.
- Gorgon 1 - no questions.
- Zeus have you finished dispersing?
- Yes sir.

- Ships of Zeus from one to four hundred, your additional cargo Prometheus from the corresponding numbers. For ships of Zeus number four hundred and one and above, take the Gorgon as a cargo load. Gorgon! To avoid confusion, start the numbering of the ships with the number 401 and beyond. The commanders of the respective ships of Zeus, Prometheus and Gorgon agree on a mooring. To facilitate the search for the respective ships, Zeus will include beacons that transmit the ship number for Prometheus or Gorgon. Proceeded!
Several Kverkov and Earthlings began to try to communicate with the Arihons in the general communication channel, interfering with each other.
- Get out of my communication channel! All coordination between the commanders to conduct only among themselves through a separate communication channel!

Finally, everyone understood everything and silence reigned on this channel. Moreover, the commander of the ship on which Leah was also talking with Arikhon and maneuvered, mooring to the Arihon ship. Damn, the earth’s flagship seemed like a toy, a shuttle as compared to the hulk of the Arihons.
- Anastasia!
- Yes, General!
- Your Pegasus, someone towing?
- Yes, King Arihonov, in person.
- Good. Good luck.
- Thank you, general.

After Leah’s ship moored to the Arihon’s ship, she spent some time watching the maneuvers of the ships within sight. The girls were in perfect contact with the Arihons and rather quickly the mooring of all the Earthlings was over. And with some ships Kverkov had problems. The commanders were inexperienced, but at the same time arrogant. And of course the mooring took place on the nerves. Sometimes it was necessary for someone from the Arihonov crew to fly by shuttle to the ship of Kverkov and moor to their own on an unknown ship. Finally all the maneuvers are over.
- Report on readiness!
- Zeus - ready!
- Prometheus - ready!
- Dracula - ready!
- Creator 1 - ready!
- Gorgon 401 - ready!
- All independent ships and carrier ships start! Course system Shensher! Upon arrival, we do not enter the three-dimensional space until the command of Zeus. Dracula Zero! After entering the three-dimensional space, you and Phaeton launch reconnaissance probes so that the review will be on the entire planet!
- Dracula zero, got it.
- Phaeton - understood.
- General! - Leah addressed the carrier commander, - are you able to provide me with communication with everyone during your stay in null space?
- Yes sir.
- Thank you.
— — — ------------- — — —

- Commander!
- Yes, Ambassador Alex.
“I looked, I hooked so that the exhaust from my main engines wouldn't hurt your ship.” Can we reconcile the actions of the onboard computers so that the Phaeton also helps to leap into null space?
- It would be great.
- Phaeton, you are not putting a freeloader to fly. Connect with the onboard computer of the carrier and push yourself to zero space together.
- I carry out, commander.
After the jump, when everything calmed down, I heard the voice of the Vampire:
- Ambassador Alex, I could not even imagine that with almost double weight, only about 70% of the necessary fuel will be spent on the jump. If so coupled to a pair of identical ships, there will be savings in each of thirty percent. And this is a huge amount of fuel. Especially for long-haul flights.

- Commander, use the idea. And now let's decide what and how we will do when we jump near Shenscher. I will immediately with the invisible and the main engines in the transition will not include. After separation, my task will be to protect you while you turn on the invisibility and maneuver. In extreme cases, I will put you in a power trap. Can you imagine the surprise of Shensher with an empty trap? Too zealous, I will destroy, the on-board computers will coordinate the moment you start your maneuver and turn off the force field. Let the Shensheirs think that someone was shot down.Well, and if the danger is not great, immediately release the scouts, and you and Phaeton are left to wait for the main forces. And I'm on a shuttle flying to destroy the generators of suppression.

- Are they so scary?
- Not really (although looking for someone). They suppress the will of the fighters, except for Shensher and do not give an opportunity to shoot at Shenshehr.
- And how do you shoot?
- I'm crazy or, as we say, braked on the whole head.
- That is, no laws have been written to you, - the Vampire laughed, - indeed this is not allowed among fighters. King Arihonov is crazy too?
- Not. He is not susceptible to suggestion Shensher, but under the action of the generator can not shoot at them. So it turns out that we need to fly in a pair. He can fly, but I can shoot. Something like this.
- You are the perfect teammates.

Lia began to browse the channels of communication, which even during this time passed the communication. Querks, Vampires and creators were silent, and about twenty ships of Arihons and the same number of Earthmen were engaged in lively conversations. Our girls were not embarrassed even by the terrible appearance of the Arihons (terrible in earthly perceptions). They chatter with the commanders of the carrier ship. Leah wanted to pull them down, then changed her mind. She remembered how she herself, when she was young, wanted at least to speak a little with someone. But there was nobody. Here during these few hours of flight in null space, they will have time to make friends. And the friendly attitude of Arihonov was not in doubt. Therefore, during the battle, they will already be with our girls as partners, they will understand each other almost without words. In addition, they independently, without the help of the commander, united the on-board computers. And this means that any threat noticed by an earthly ship immediately became known to the ship of the Arihons. And in this case, the delay in explaining the threat was already excluded. Which greatly increased the chances of survival of both ships. In addition, even without an additional beacon, the on-board computers acted in concert and did not allow collisions or dangerous maneuvers relative to each other.
