The relentless Tamaranian force maintained a powerful stronghold against not only the Zamaronian forces as well as the Green Lanterns. Of course, this did not mean that they were winning, but they were putting a up a pretty fair fight. In all her rage, Komand'r had ignored the negotiation that one of the Green Lantern's had attempted to make.
Having been given no other order, the Tamaranina battle fleet continued to open fire as their highness took care of matters on the surface. Completely disregarding the Lantern's attempt they were willing to go out with a bang so long as their Queen ensured the longevity of her people.
There was a special type of loyalty that Komand'r had instilled into the people of Tamaran, and despite the fact that her goal was to become a dominating force in the universe the people that served under her were willing to support her every step of the way.
Now that was power that you couldn't just earn.
Launching a massive barrage of lasers upon the Zamaronian fleet and the Green Lanterns, the Tamarans continued their assault despite the fact that their other forces were being beat savagely by the lanterns.
[i]*beep Beep*[/i]
“Please tell me that's not our shields.”[/color]
Tyand'r rubbed his forehead as he watched a Green Lantern evade at least three lasers before ramming a large mace into the hull. The ship trembled and he held onto the bars near the control console as to not fall to the ground.
[color=9F79EE]“No sir, it's a message from Queen Komand'r.”[/color]
Looking up almost immediately, Tyand'r rushed over to the communications console. He would only be able to receive an audio file, but that was enough for him.
[color=1464F4]“Your highness, we're being overpowered and have sustained heavy damage to our fleet, what is your status?”[/color]
Tyand'r said in a slightly panicked voice as he held either side of the console and stared at the small green light that was on its surface.
[color=8B1C62]“Tyand'r, I've retrieved the crystal, order the remaining ships to leave the vicinity, ensure you beam all survivors and wounded back on board, I will take care of the our nuisances.”[/color]
With that said, the link closed, and Tyand'r stared dumbfounded at the scene that lay before him. Aside from the three Green Lanterns, there was an array of damaged ships both Tamaranian and Zamaronian.
He wondered how Komand'r would fight off the remaining force.
[color=1464F4]“Well you heard her! Retrieve the wounded and survivors we need to leave now!”[/color]
[hr]
Power, power that she had never felt before. It surged through her almost like fire. There was a wicked grin on her face as she tore through the skies of Zamaron, her speed increasing until she could feel herself surpass her own speed limit.
Komand'r was the epitome of power now.
The violet energy that emitted from the crystal on her tiara contoured her body and she broke through the planet's atmosphere now probably moving at half the speed of light.
Bursting from the planet, Komand'r focused on the Zamaron ships that were ahead of her. Streamlining her body, she increased her speed using the power of the crystal to propel her forward. As she did so, the energy around her began to reshape itself, forming a sharp tip at the end, several feet above Komand'r's head.
Zooming forward, Komand'r flew straight through one of the Zamaronian battle ships, effectively splitting it in half. Flying through the explosions and smoke completely unharmed, Komand'r moved onto the next ship, performing the same maneuver.
After spearing straight through three battle ships with that technique, Komand'r focused on the smaller ships and easily took them out with powerful bolts of starbolt energy.
[color=8B1C62]“This is too easy.”[/color]
Komand'r said to herself, turning to see the Tamaraninan fleet entering hyperspace and finally leaving the area.
[color=76EE00]“HEY YOU!”[/color]
The rude call out that was obviously directed towards her caused Komand'r to turn around rather slowly. As she did, she met with one of the Green Lantern's. Her face twisted, showing her resentment for him as he hovered before her, arm raised and ring glowing a brilliant green.
“Cease your actions or you will be forced to stand down.”[/color]
[i]Forced?[/i] Komand'r's brow raised as she looked at the Green Lantern with an odd expression. She could not believe that he had just ordered her, that he had commanded her to do something. She could not believe that he was enforcing some sort of authority upon her.
[color=8B1C62]“You dare order the Queen of Tamaran?”[/color]
Komand'r demanded in a dangerous tone. Her green eyes began to shimmer as she inched forward, the violet aura around her shining brilliantly and her fists glowing as starbolt energy collected within it.
Suddenly, she burst forward with blinding speed and slammed her fist onto the Green Lantern's shield. Seeing that he had set up a rather good defense, Komand'r swiftly eased back and allowed her tiara's power to handle the situation. Using her force of will and power, she formed a violet construct that launched forward and took the form of chains. They latched onto the Green Lantern, and she forced them to tighten around him.
[color=397D02]“HEY!”[/color]
Another voice called out, and without looking, Komand'r spun the Lantern that she currently held around and thrust him towards the second one. Watching them collide, Komand'r drew her arms back, collecting starbolt and energy, and with a mixture of a burst from the power crystal, she shot both forward and watched as both Lantern's were thrown a good distance away.
[color=8B1C62]“Fools, no one can rival with my power! NO ONE!”[/color]
Komand'r called out, holding her hands at her sides in a power stance as the violet hue of energy around her began to glow brightly again. She prepared to move into flight to return to Tamaran.

There seemed to be a wave of slight apprehension that overcame Tasmia as she stared down at Earth's crystal blue surface. She could clearly recall that last time that she had been here and that was several months ago. As always, it had been to visit Val and sit down with him to reminisce about their time, and their dimension and how everything seemed to go wrong.
It had taken her quite a long time to finally accept the fact that she was not going to be able to return to her own time, let alone her own dimension. Unless another act of obscurity, the same that had brought her here befell her, then it would happen. Otherwise the idea itself was rather unlikely. Val expressed that to her countless times, and each time Tasmia told him she understood what he was saying, knew what it was best to assimilate and best to cope with the obstacle at hand. To make the best out of things.
Her last visit to Val had taught her that he had fallen for an admirable fighter that when by the name Dinah Lance or the Black Canary. Seeing that he was moving on with his life, Tasmia felt that she was only becoming a chain that held him back and decided that from that day she would leave him alone to pursue his life.
He had found his calling, it was only right that she should find hers.
The only place that seemed acceptable of her was this dimension's Talok VII. They had called her back after she had liberated them from the clutches of the Dominators hoping that she might take place as Champion of the planet. Tasmia however let the offer down explaining that she did not want to interfere with the current lineage. Instead she agreed to act as a placeholder while the Talokian who was in line to become the next Champion finished his training.
Once Alacard finalized his training to become Champion, Tasmia willingly stepped back and allowed him to take his rightful place. She was invited to stay in the royal court, but again she declined the offer not wanting to become even further involved in the current time stream.
Leaving Talok VII, Tasmia chose to wander the universe for awhile, attempting to once again find a calling. There however was not much that she could do.
She spent most of her time on Hardcore Station, becoming a vigilante of some sort and dealing with universal criminal activities on her own. She was successful in most cases, but soon that activity began to grow weary and Tasmia was forced back to wander and constantly think about her own time and world.
It took her time and a journey of enlightenment across the galaxy to finally come to the realization that there was in fact no chance that she would return back to her own world. She learned that she had to accept this new turning point in her life and make the best out of it.
Recapping on her work in this time, Tasmia realized that it wasn't as bad as she had thought it to be. After all, she had saved her people from being completely extinct, she had met several different alien races that didn't exist in her time, and she lent a helping hand throughout the galaxy.
If that wasn't enough reason to exist in this realm, then Tasmia didn't know what other reason there would be.
There was purpose behind her existence within this realm, and she was performing the sovereign duty that was put up for her by someone unknown force.
Now, here she was hovering over the planet Earth, her cape silently floating out behind her as she stared down at the vast blue planet a contemplative look on her face. Tasmia was here to once again visit Val and once again have another “discussion”. Ideally, her and Val were very close, in the past they had upstarted a relationship since they both possessed same warrior spirits, but that had soon ended and Tasmia and Jo Nah became an item. Val was still considerate enough to help Tasmia when her and Jo Nah were having relationship problems, so she knew he was someone that she could heavily rely on.
[color=63B8FF][i]Jo Nah...[/i][/color]
The thought of her former boyfriend spanned across her mind and she shook her head. She had let go off that feeling a long time ago after realizing that she was never going to return. Jo Nah probably wouldn't want her to dwell on what she had lost, and she most certainly did not want him to suffer as well. By this point in time it was Tasmia, and Tasmia only.
Holding her hand out before her, she looked down at the Legionnaire ring upon it and smiled. She remembered the first thing she had said when she obtained it. [i]”What can't this ring do?”[/i]. Allowing her gaze to fall upon it for several moments, Tasmia finally focused back on the mission.
Flipping in the air, Tasmia gracefully dove forward and began to descend, heading straight for Earth. She had to look for Val now, and she hoped her Legion ring would aid her in her search.
[hr]
Gliding over the sapphire blue ocean beneath her, Tasmia turned her head to see that the speed that she was flying at had caused the water's surface to part. Smiling slightly, she looked down at the water to see her reflection gazing back at her. Light blue skin, onyx eyes, she was truly a Talokian. She often times found it hard to assimilate onto this planet simply because she was an alien. Val had it easy, what with being human and all. He didn't have to deal with people staring at him with wide eyes and mild expressions. It was either that, or perhaps Tasmia had to consider a change in attire.
Gazing at the warrior like outfit that she had donned she would understand why most would stop and stare. But there was reason for her choice of clothing, it allowed her to move easily. Clothing was such a hazard when it came to battles, and the last thing she needed was to get snagged onto something. People would argue that her long cape was a liability, but she was royalty, she [i]needed[/i] the cape.
At least that's what she insisted.
Returning her gaze to the sights before, Tasmia could feel her Legion ring vibrate as it sensed Val's. She was unsure of where she was exactly as her geography of planet Earth was not as great as it should probably have been. All that really matter was that as long as the Legion ring was with her, she would be able to find Val.
Clutching her hands at her sides, she straightened her body out, that way she would increase her speed. As she continued her movement forward, the ring continued to vibrate, until finally it was almost overwhelming and about to shake off her finger.
Looking ahead, Tasmia took in the sight of a long red bridge. Zipping under it, she heard the sound of morning traffic and also took in the fumes from the vehicles. Coughing slightly, she turned straight ahead once again and just in time to move out of the way of a small tug boat.
Holding her chest slightly to stop her heart from beating, Tasmia reminded herself to focus on flying rather than the sights around here. She would be able to marvel at them later, assuming she wanted to.
Continuing forward, she finally caught sight of an island that was off the coast of the mainland. Looking at her ring, she felt that it held at attraction towards the island and she immediately flew forward, decreasing her speed as she neared it.
Gazing at the large structure that was shaped like a “T” Tasmia raised her brow, mentally questioning the architect of the place. She pressed her the ring on her finger, shutting off the tracking device and finally, landed upon the surface of the Island.
Admiring the lush green environment and small beach, Tasmia landed in a mesh of grass and looked around. Val was on this island, somewhere on. It wasn't too big so she didn't need to worry about taking too much time trying to locate him. Her only concern was whether or not she would be welcome here.
She began her search, stepping forward and holding up her cape so it would not drag along the dirt. Birds chirped, singing their melodies for the morning and she wondered if Val would even be up at this time. Heck, she didn't even [i]know[/i] what time it was.
It had been several minutes, and Tasmia had wandered around the island until finally nearing the large T-structure. She had hesitated at first, not wanting to come off as an intruder, but found that she had no other choice.
Following a small stream, she neared the structure, and then suddenly, she stopped.
There before her, near the mouth of the small stream was Val Armorr, Karate Kid, Val. Tasmia recognized the unmistakable figure and she lifted off the ground and began to hover forward, not wanting to disturb him... yet.
He sat with his legs crossed and held his head in deep meditation. Tasmia recognized the peace and tranquility that radiated off him as he sat with his eyes closed, breathing in and out slowly, completely focused within the inner most regions of his minds.
Although it wasn't the best thing to do, Tasmia didn't want to stand there and wait for him to finally realize that she had arrived.
[color=63B8FF]“You certainly know how to blend in well with this dimension, Karate Kid.”[/color]
Tasmia began, her hands crossed over her chest as she gazed at the structure behind Val. She knew that he probably wasn't recognized as “Karate Kid” anymore, but she just felt like referring to him by his former code name, for old time's sake. She lowered her gaze, and placed it upon Val.
[color=63B8FF]“That is of course, if rather obscure designs is trendy during in this time period.”[/color]
A small smile formed upon her face as Val Armorr looked back at her with a mildly surprised expression, it had been awhile.
