!mxBDpej4rQ 08/28/11(Sun)23:19 No.16101671>>16101252 Realizing you need to get there and salvage what you can ASAP, you send out a psychic call to Bubbles to prepare all your ships fro departure, quickly putting on your uniform as you do so. Making your way towards the Klaw, you enter it just as Bubbles sends a message to you over the the vox built into your suit.
"All ships ready for departure, sir."
Acknowledging her, you tell her to set the coordinates for the site of the battle in the navigation cogitator, and to pass said coordinates on to the rest of your ships. Finding your way to the bridge, Bubbles gets up from your chair and salutes you as you sit down. With the coordinates locked in, and the other ships disconnected from the station, it only takes a few seconds for your ship to disengage and begin moving. Slowly drifting away from the station, Bubbles aims the ship away from the asteroid belt, and engages the Webway Interface. Time and space stretch out as you are pulled through a sudden rift and into the Webway, passing through the bizarre dimension like a ghost. Moments, later, you emerge, the stars all in different places, with a new blue star in view, and the planet before you surrounded by slowly moving husks. Dozens of ships float endlessly around the rock, all of them disabled, all of them devoid of life signs. Looking around, you examine the clock to your left. You've arrived almost three days later by its count, though to the perceptions of everyone on the bridge, it was only a few minutes. A random Eldar officer speaks up.
"Sir, I'm detecting ships entering the system. The Red Dakka and the Red Storm, by their IFFs."
Bubbles turns to the Eldar.
"Tell them to begin salvage operations."
"Aye, ma'am." |
