Ch. 2 - Birth

In the Dark Templar City of Talematros on Shakuras, a particular Dark Templar Prelate received a vision. The Prelate which was standing suddenly fell on his knees. Half of the Nerazim Guards with the Prelate formed a tight circle with their Psi blades deployed with their backs against fallen Prelate while the rest turned invisible and scouted in all directions. A female Nerazim hurriedly approach the fallen Prelate.

"Prelate Khra'kos! What happened? An enemy attack?" the female Nerazim asked.

"Und lara khar Sei'renis. I had just received a vision." Khra'kos told the worried Sei'ranis.

"A vision? That excellent! Is that about the Daelaam?" Sei'ranis inquired. She then signaled to stand down.

"Yes and no." the prelate replied.

"What?! How-"

"Yes it concerns the Daelaam. No because not only the Daelaam is concerned but the entire universe." spoke the Prelate.

Suddenly, three Protoss rushed inside the chamber the Prelate is in. Once has white armor with gold trimmings, another one wearing an identical black armor with red trimmings and lastly a grey armored Immortal with orange trimmings.

"Prelate Khra'kos! We sensed a disturbance in your psionic communicator. Is it an enemy attack?" the white armored Protoss asked.

"It's okay Hierarch Zel'maris, Ascendant Ma'razul, Ambassador Feirul. I received a vision. A Protoss has been born with the ability to evolve like a Zerg."the Prelate Khra'kos explained what he saw in the vision.

"In that case, we deploy the Golden Armada. We need to eliminate the risk this Protoss bear! This might the a Hybrid the ancestors described in the war! The Tal'darim are ready to be deployed at your command, Hierarch." spoke the black armored Ascendant Ma'razul.

"Let us not act brashly Ascendant Ma'razul." spoke the gentle Feirul. "We need first to see if we can reason with the Protoss. He might be one of us."

"I disagree! Those things must be eliminated right away! Like what the Prelate said we have no such luxury to talk to them!" voiced the Ascendant.

"Enough! Both of you. I agree with both of your plans but I propose that we speak with the Protoss first and if this Protoss is not willing to hear to the voice of reason." spoke the Heirarch. " We will eliminate him."

"Then the Nezarim will find the protoss for you Hierarch. We need to find this Protoss fast before he thinks something dark. I will be needing the fastest of your ships as well as a map for all Protoss cities and settlements available." spoke the silent Prelate.

The Hierarch nodded. " En'Taro Artanis."

"En'Taro Artanis." the other three chimed in.

--Broodmother Vishaya--

We Broodmothers have banded together after the war with the Queen of Blades , Kerrigan. We now are in a peaceful state. No longer consuming and fighting battles after battles but our form remains. The seven of us has maintained this state for more than hundreds of years. A thousand and few hundred years ago, after the death of our Queen's ally , Jim Raynor, the Queen disappeared but left us a message to continue holding peace in this area of space. We have been obediently following her orders until 800 years ago. A lone hibernating queen and her brood was found in one of the deeper tunnels found on Char whose origin was presumably during the time of the Overmind. The old queen was then welcomed after a few discussions with each other to the Swarm albeit with some suspicions and allowed her to evolve up until our level. We watched her and cared for her like our sister for hundreds of years. We didn't know that what we invited to the Swarm was a disaster.

We have been experiencing losing control of some part of the swarm since the Queen(Kerrigan) left. Isolated events as we have concluded. Possibly due to them possessing aggression and adrenal glands. We (Broodmothers) then hold a consensus to remove the said organs. For the first 50 years, the incident became fewer and up until only small amounts of Zerg are affected by it. After 200 years, due to the large size of the Swarm, we have remove most of the said organs on our brood. We no longer had any incidents of broods going feral. We then urge Broodmother Xylenxir to remove the same organ on her brood. She then looked at us with a smile. A terrifying smile. She then ordered her brood to attack us. Since we took only a small portion of our guards when meeting each other we never anticipated this attack. One of the Seven and her brood with half of the other broods stayed behind to let us escape. We know that the Broodmother who stayed died since we have been encountering her brood mixed among Xylenxir's in our recent wars.

"We have to kill that Broodmother fast!" Broodmother Stukov, one of the Terran Infested Broodmother whom the Queen allowed spoke.

"We agree with that Broodmother Stukov. We are now currently evolving our broods back to top combat form." replied Broodmother Ryloth.

"Then make it faster! We cannot let that bitch Xylenxir expand her brood!" Stukov roared."Vishaya, your status?"

"My brood was the last one to devolve so I cannot let them evolve again in such a short period of time without sufficient resources." I replied.

"Damn it all. I told you we shouldn't have adopted that bitch and invited her to play little family here." murmured Stukov.

The rest of the Broodmothers fell silent. We know at the back of our heads that this might happen most specially since Xylenxir didn't fall under the Queens power previously. We looked at each other and admit that we have been shortsighted. We let the notion of peace went in out head. We forgot who we were. We are the Zerg. We were made to consume and go to war. We never was meant for peace.

"It seems that we need to contact the Protoss about this." Broodmother Kilysa suggested.

"How? The last contact we had with the Protoss was when the Terran Jim Raynor died! That was thousands of years ago! Not even the Terran was able to detect them anymore." hissed Broodmother Naktul.

"I have already contacted the Nezarim." spoke Broodmother Zagara. Zagara is the one who succeeded Queen Kerrigan as the new Queen of Blades after the war but relented the position and instead formed the Council of the Broodmothers. "I know you have questions but the Queen told me to always be in contact with the Nezarim but not share them to you."

"Okay questions aside Zagara but when did you informed the Nezarim?" asked Stukov.

"It was 6 months ago but I haven't heard from the Nezarim after that." Zagara replied with uncertainty.

"Then I guess we are royally fucked." cursed Stukov.
