Research stations were going dark along the outer regions of Imperial space. Zack and his team of shock troopers were sent out to determine the cause and protect or, if need be,  destroy any valuable assets (tech and/or personnel) that may have been compromised.

It was believed that the most likely cause for a comms blackout was just some faulty equipment or the stronger than usual solar flares that had been occurring in the system... But that couldn't have been further from the truth.

As soon as Zack's team hit the ground a flurry of plasma bolts tore through them. He didn't even see the face of the enemy before a searing pain shot through his gut as a piece of shrapnel brought him to the ground. Above him stood a gigantic reptilian monstrosity, ready to deliver its killing blow, but Zack pivoted on the ground, the Alien's blade sinking into his shoulder rather than his head, and he blasted two bolts of molten metal right through the creature's torso and neck.

Within seconds he alerted high-command to glass the whole moon and it was merely luck that allowed him to escape with his life... though being the sole survivor of that fateful day left more than physical scars.
