Plot summary[]
A Karbarra ship Folds into the Tzuptum System on a mission to bust into the Home Hive on Optera and assassinate the Regent to end the threat of the Invid. Despite Karbarra being liberated, they had yet to rebuild their fleet, but sent 1 ship to sneak in. As the squad loaded themselves into missiles and sounded off, they were launched into the atmosphere where the Invid Brain detected them but was told by The Regent it was a meteor shower and not to bother him with trivial issues. The Karbarran Squad landed on the surface and advanced as they noticed how desolate Optera was after the Zentraedi deflowered it. An Invid Trooper on patrol went by but didn't notice them as their armor is Sekiton powered instead of Protoculture and as they remained still it passed over them. They arrived at the Home Hive and at 23 00 Lt. Luggiman on the ship fired missiles that were detected by the Invid Brain. The Regent desired a launch of Shocktroopers to counter but the Brain told him Protocol demanded taking the shelling so the Shocktroopers wouldn't be slain by the attack, much to The Regent's displeasure. Seeing their chance, the team went into the Hive but were caught by an organic filter system to keep impurities out. After cutting through them with lasers they advanced as the shelling by the Karbarran ship ceased. The Shocktroopers were deployed but the ship folded away as it was ot prepared for a battle. Seeing the unusual cowardice of the Karbarrans, The Regent suspected there may be more than met the eye as the Karbarran team decided to head to the deeper areas of the hive as it would be the safest place to be during an air rad. The team was being pulled forward by the Hive's Air Pump and used Anchor Bolts to hold to the wall. Timing the valve, they released the Anchor Bolts and went through the lung structure of the hive and went onward to the Regent's Chamber where they opened fire on him. The Regent summoned more Invid and returned fire while taking little damage and with much of the Karbarran team slain, Sarge and Bidges armed grenades and did a Kamikaze attack to take out the Regent. With everyone in the room dead, the real Regent arrived and revealed he used a clone as a body double as he remembered the meteor shower and connected it to the fleeing ship. Then planned to do his dealings with the Sentinels.
