  • Sirius Colony Year 2999

    "SF Beta 1-2 to Vegabond


    Alpha 1-1. Callsign Trafalgar. Mind if we switch to private comms?"
    A few blipping and


    clicking sounds chirped over the comm line and the Vegabond pilot responded, "Go ahead


    Commander Baldwin."
    "If you don't mind me asking sir, what is the purpose of the


    HGRS?"
    "It will enable the capitol ships to provide ultimate quick assistance to our


    forces."
    "How sir?"
    "You'll see, but hopefully the enemy forces won't call for


    it."
    "Commander Horus, we are nearing our objective point.", butted in another


    Vegabond.
    "Good luck out there Junker. Horus out." The private comm ended and Horus piped


    up the open link, "All ships, exit warp space now and target the nearest pirate. Time to


    kick some IP ass."

    Klaxons around the Ice Pirate cruiser Gargoyle


    sprang to life as the Alliance figthers appeared from warpspace.


    "Hmm, Vegabonds,


    Crossfire LRF's, and the 89th. And look at this sir, scans show someone you might


    know."
    "Who Gosti?"
    "Baldwin, Admiral Fragless."
    "Him? I thought he died! Damn that


    Pandora! She must have joined our legions to bust him out of our hands."
    "Even so sir,


    that's him. What are your orders?"
    "....Activate all aft batteries and missle pods.


    Release the mines, and retreat to nav three to regroup with the main battlefleet. More


    forces are surely on their way."
    "And our fighters?"
    "Emergency scramble, but hold


    their launch."
    "You do know sir that this is a direct violation of our orders?"
    "Yes,


    however Jibbous means well for our destruction. Why surrender so easily to him, or drop my


    honor to our Alliance enemies?"
    "Very well sir. Helmsman, lay in a new course, south east


    by east back to nav three. Communications, scramble our pilots and warn the battlefleet.


    Weapons control, arm the nukes and lay a mine net."
    "This will be a black day for us


    all."

    "Horus, we got a cruiser on a retreat course!"
    "That's the


    Gargoyle , if I remember from my past then Fragless is most definatly aboard that


    ship."
    "Slips, Vegabonds, we got incoming min--" The pilot didnt get a chance to finish


    his last words as his ship rammed into a tri-ripper mine.
    "Pilots, evasive manuevers!


    Call the HGRS to get us out of here!"
    "Sir, comms are jammed, we're alone!"
    "Ahhh!"


    Another pilot bought the farm.
    "No! Noo!" Mines started to multiply as fast as


    jackrabbits.
    "Sir, we have to jump!"
    "But to where?"
    "Anywhere.....ahhh!" The


    Vegabonds were dwindling down in numbers.
    "......Activate warp drives!"


    Trafalgar


    punched the drive and then blacked out when he forgot to set the velocity limit for warp.
