Gears
Harbinger of War, Chaos, and Poptarts
The room was quiet, something unusual when in the company of the Auroras Crew. Eddie Gears sat in the back, a strange gadget in his hand, a simple fidget toy. At 0700, Earth time, the crew had docked their shuttle, Aurora on the Fearless. The star ship was barley a ship, more a station with limited maneuverability, not even able to use Light Travel.
The room was cramped but most have each other enough room to keep it somewhat comfortable- Space Farers rarely complained about tight quarters. The man speaking was a commander in the United Earth Defense force, the same rank The Captain had before he retired. Eddie spun one face on the device, met with a low Click
“You are probably wondering why we are involving individuals of your vast variety in this mission, with Earth Defense Forces, Mercenary’s, Tradesmen- but this threat has the potential to put all of us at risk. The Dolan.”
Click
The room filled with groans, Mostly from the Defense Force Grunts and the crew, while a man in a lab coat gave a smile, an unsettling smile that screamed at Eddie to shoot the stranger- as usual Eddie ignored the paranoia.
“Recently, one of the outer planets that focused on surveillance between us and The Origin has gone dark. A Earth Defense Convoy was sent to investigate and after sending men to the surface- we lost all contact.”
Clic-
Eddie stopped, and looked to the Captain, his face emotionless, like usual. Quiet whispers filled the room, a convoy could range from a Medium Troop Carrier with a few escort fighters to a small fleet, capable of taking on an entire Borg planet.
“Despite the Unkown danger that may await you, we know the threat of a Dolan invasion could cripple all of our military’s, especially if they unite with the Borgs. We have recently recovered a craft of questionable origins but we have tested that it can pierce the minor Cosmic Tempest that the area has been going through with little damage.”
“We call upon you not because of a minor rebel incursion, not to do the bidding of a shady corporation, but to save your homes from a horde of faceless monsters willing to steal your identity’s to kill your friends and family.”
Bullshit
