//You dare try to escape?! You dare pretend to find the solution that my children could not?! You shall be annihilated!//
Radica flared off from his star at massive speeds, plowing through the ships nearest to him, causing them to evaporate into flaming clouds of plasma. He was heading straight toward the ring.
...
RS-23 looked on as the events transpired, relieved that the transmission was not from a human, but of a hostile race. He sent an order back to Alpha Centauri.
//I don't care what the organic said, we need secbots. Repbots won't cure this problem, only treat it. This looks like a war to rival our own.//
In moments a swarm of nano-metas burst off from the desolate planet, and headed toward the fleet.

" Hmm. This ring construct is obviously metaphysical in nature somehow. We must listen closely to its sayings... " The Majaag continued to expand. It soon became too large to sustain itself without changing into a more manageable form.
It began to adapt to the gas gaint, changing into a large ship sailing through its atmosphere. It developped corridors, a bridge, pipe systems, a huge heart, everything that it required. It spawned thousands of Majaag Commons to help maintain it. It deployed a massive sail of sorts that would catch organic molecules, and let all other molecules through. There will large pipes all along it that brought in these molecules to be become part of the ship that was now held afloat by fusion engines.

"Coordinates! I need coordinates!"
//H'qur, take your standard measures! NNTA, pick a ship and follow them!//
They followed orders, and ships scattered in every direction, engaging their FTL drives. Wanderer scrambled to imput the correct numbers that would take the charging energy being somewhere harmless.
//You have decided to ignore our words. Hopefully, your senses will convince you of our message.//
A massive rift opened in spacetime, centered in the center of the ring, emitting massive ammounts of energy. The ring attempted to manuver itself to capture Ratica in this field, as well as protect itself.

Radica started to laugh.
//Energy?! You think you can capture me by energy? My friends, I CONTROL energy.//
Massive energy fields fluctuated out from him, canceling out the one he was contained in.

The Majaag split into multiple ships, which continued to grow and coordinate to absorb the gas gaint's plentiful material. " Five minutes until it is useless to stay in the atmosphere, target second gas gaint. Launch in 4:30. " The Majaag became more and more powerful with every passing second, feeding while Radica's little cover protected them.

Spacetime snapped shut around Radica, and an incomprehensible blur asaulted its senses. It thought it glimpsed something intellegent, but it moved by too quickly to be sure... ...
"Where is it?" "He shut the portal early. He's doing a loop through Plain 3... oh... so that's what killed the Tkon. I'll have to inform the proper authorities about that." "What?" "Wait... he's coming back around... 30 seconds."
Another massive rift opened, and seconds later, Radica emerged from it.

" Launch, withdraw all sails, ignite all organic fusion reactors including auxilaries. " Hundreds of Majaag capital ships emerged from the gas gaint, which had suddenly lost a large amount of gravity. The fleet moved towards the next gas gaint, which wasn't as rich in organic molecules, but was full of fuseable hydrogen.

//Wha-what was that? What did you do to me? Explain now, cold ones!// He was taken aback. Never had the organics managed to do this to him. ... Meanwhile, a message was sent to the fleet. //We have taken the liberty to send 10 million secbot swarms for your use. Share and enjoy!// The nano-meta swarms descended to the ships, and did a little dance around the hulls. //What would you have us do, organics?//

//You've been sent on a brief and uber-high speed tour of a plain outside this one. You visited Plain 3, while you originated in this, Plain 9. It takes a bit of explanation, but are you familiar with the concept of infinite relaities? Multiverse?//
Meanwhile...
//Do you have any data on the being attacking the ring? Do you have any data on the being we captured, then fled with you?//

The Majaag fleet quickly reached the second gas gaint, and began to load up on hydrogen and any organic molecules it could find. While the fleet only grew four ships larger, it still numbered at the large amount of 305. " Okay, the hydrogen stores are full to bursting, literally. Lets move and take the third planet in this system, it looks full of life. " The fleet reignited its engines, flying off toward it.

Radica://Yes, I am aware of the idea. It is, however, inevitable that these different worlds will too run out of energy.//
RS-21://Yes, we have data. It appears to lack empathy for the rest of the universe...//

//That is true. However, one not need to be around when this happens. Infinity is a big number of ends, yes, but there is an equal number of beginnings. We can get you there.//
Meanwhile...
//Please upload this data to our ship's computer. We can begin the crew's adustment.//

The Majaag landed on the third planet, and immediately began to expand. A number of cruisers and dreadnoughts stayed in orbit, guarding it. From space, it could be seen that large areas once green were becoming red. The planet was now green and blue, along with red.
