Talk:130th InterNaval Fleet/@comment-12161342-20140417120812/@comment-12161342-20140512203836

''It is now almost a month after the mysterious Narada ended the 130th. The giant ship, hovering over the molten lake of slag and lava where the 130th's base was, disappeared a week after the battle. Nobody saw it go... but there remained no trace of the ship. The pool slowly formed a thin crust of solid rock due to cooling from the cold air of the Neo Arctic. Everyone assumed Nero had left.''

A group of seismologists and vulcanologists are stationed at the center of the ten-meter thick solid crust over the molten pool. The ground is hot underneath them. They are taking samples and measurements, trying to determine whether the pool could somehow develop into a future volcanic or seismic hazard to the region in the future. Several of them are talking about how the pool could stay molten for millions of years, since the Narada's bombardment had punched down into the mantle, providing the pool with a heat source that could last indefinitely.

Just then, seismographs in the scientists' base camp begin recording tremors. They are continuous and growing, until even the scientists themselves feel them. Cracks begin to develop in the crust, and as the horrified scientists watch, a section of crust several miles away from them begins to LIFT into the sky, as if something was pushing from underneath. Then the bulge fragments and crumbles apart in a spray of lava, revealing the Narada. The entire ship is glowing bright red due to its immersion in the extremely hot pool, but it seems as the ship was not affected.

The Narada continues to rise, leveling out a kilometer above the now-fragmented crust. The scientists temporarily tear their gazes away from the ship to run to a nearby temporary airstrip, gathering up their equipment along the way. They board the plane, taking off just as fissures spreading from the hole Narada punched in the crust reach and destroy the remains of their camp. As the plane quickly departs the area, the scientists radio all nearby governments and settlements, telling them that the Narada had just reappeared, explaining that it had never left at all.
