"You're telling me that you're not going to teach us how to operate the weapon systems?" A weapons officer complain.

"I have to give the technical Engineers a run down on how to maintain the system," you fired back, climbing off the ship. "Besides, its just point and shoot!"

"Alright, i got the primary phase cannons installed on the last of the Cruisers, after their done we should be done..."

"But?" You sensed trouble in his voice.

"But their systems aren't exactly compatible with ours" Gabriel informed you.

"Why not?" You asked "you managed with my old ship."

"That's because our technology had more in common, but these, they use Crystals as a power source not part of the computer!"

"Then stick to the old fashion wires then."

"That will blow every power relay on board when it powers up."

"Fine" you grumble "I'll do it myself."

"There's one more thing, the start up sequence for the Setsuri has failed again, a diagnostic program is running through your brain scans and the program to start compiling it into a new sequence." Gabriel mentions.

"again?!" you scowled "I swear it's almost like a sabotage, isolate the main computer and begin coding the programs."

"Will do." Gabriel agrees before moving along to his work

Running through the power setting on the ships you begin working on a power relay when Ironwood approached you. "Captain" he called tapping your shoulder lightly.

"Woah!" You cry out as a a bolt of lightning shot through the conduits and give you a massive shock. Angrily you sucked on your fingers and screeched out. "WHAT?"

"The transfer chamber..." the General started

"In the hall 2 floors above." You cut him off.

"What about the upgrades?" Ironwood continued

"Its proving to be a little more dificult than before i need another few hours." you said before returning to the power conduits.

"Captain, i appreciate that you found a way around your rules but. I don't see why are you so agitated about Arming my ships."

"You want to know why?" You said tapping your watch to project a hologram "here's why."

2 years before the Crash on Remnant

My crew and I encountered a planet that was under siege from a extremely hostile force, since the war was not going well it caused the fleet to be spread thinly in hopes to protect as many planets as possible from the enemy.

Due to the small flotilla that was sent to hold against an intergalactic force, Command send an order to resend the prime directive and begin replication of armaments and evaluations of civilizations that are capable of protecting themselves with our weapons

The Divarians were well...the obvious choice, even if they have 23 nations and 4 different ways of governments. They were willing to protect each other from danger, Despite their different ideology.

I gave them weapons, the strongest we had in store and they beat them with territory regained.

However even before they finished they attacked each other, all sense of cooperation fails and they nuked each other back to the stone age.
