USS Skytoucher - Mission 2: The Van'Gu Cluster

[Thomas Stiegler]

Lieut. Mannion, please report at my office later.

We need to talk about your personal file; there are some details missing concerning your family. Perhaps you will be able to help me filling the gaps?

[Zack Mannion]

Of course I remember...

Over and out.

[Pax]

"We are guiding you to our homeworld which has been peaceful for centuries, because it is hidden and it is our choice who is allowed to find it and who not.
Now, whether you ordered to fire upon us or not, how do we know you will not bring war to our empire?  And maybe if it's not you, it may be one of your officers!

As for now, our ship is heavily damaged and the engines are down, because we had no shields activated, thinking you were not an enemy! We can't continue travelling so we go to full stop and start repairs, and since we have many wounded as well, we are not sufficiently manned and repairs will go slow."

[Valkiro]

woah .. i havent seen so many lights flash on my panel since we first boarded the ship, but may i suggest that you err fix the algorythms before something else happens and we all end up in hotter water then we are now *g*

[Valkiro]

Yes sir .. I just happend to be working with the Admiral before comign on board and remember the report.

[Pax]

Pax appeared on screen.

"I am still not sure if I can trust you or not, but your two technicians here have been able to convince me to trust you and to accept your offer to use your technology to drag our ship to our homeworld."

[Zack Mannion]

Ok.

*Mannion putts some codes to the communication panel and start to transmitting a message to the Dragon that comes and picks them up deep in the Van´Gu cluster*

[Pax]

Pax looks confused...

"A warp core?  And how can it support us power for the whole planet?  But we are not as technologically advanced as you, captain, I have no idea what it is and how to create it.  We are desperate, so we are willing to accept any help we can get..."

[Zack Mannion]

I´d prefer not to speak about it sir.

[Peter Svensson]

"Ahem... it's THE doctor, Dr. Smith, the one we encountered on Avalon, remember? http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> "

[Peter Svensson]

Peter Svensson and Zack Mannion enter the captain's ready room...

"Captain, sir, before you claim anything, please give me a chance to explain.  And may I please ask that what I am about to say, may not leave these 4 walls?"

[Bekloi]

=V= Sickbay to Bridge =V=

We have a big problem in the sickbay. All the panels are flashing.

[Tomas Goransson]

Hm, is there a classified part i the report?

[Tomas Goransson]

Thank you for that! And as I told before, our weapon array will be off line the entire trip. http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[Peter Svensson]

"I think you are insane to destroy our one chance to become mighty in the whole galaxy!  But it's too late now... you destroyed it!  And now we have the Skytoucher on our heels so we have to get the #### out of here!  We can still continue this discussion later."

He pushes some buttons on some panels on the Yzakian ship's bridge.

"I'm moving the ship away from the planet, deeper into the Van'Gu cluster, so the Skytoucher is at a safe distance away from us.  Do you know the secret frequencies to contact the Dragon to call them for assistance?  Tell them to be cloaked when they get here, and to hurry before this captain Goransson catches us!"
