Important

OOC: Before posting in this thread there are two important things you must understand

1. SIC: This means 'Secret In character'. you IC does not know this

2. If you RP in this thread you must not (At least to start with) turn up with 20 million frigates! This is a secret research station, along way form normal trade routes. The only reasons you would find if :-

a) You are scouting, and turn up by chance
B) You are a convoy and have gone the wrong way.

Later, you may attack my station, but not straight away. Ok?

Thank you.

IC: On the very edge of Mole space, was a platform. This platform was developing something amazing... It was no ordinary Platform... It was a weapons lab!

SIC: Onboard science station D-34

'..So that is your mission. Any questions?'

'What opposition will there be?'

'Like your previous 10 patrol missions, Intel does not expect any attack on the station. However, with the Giga fighter nearing completion, and it's prototypes ready for preliminary testing, it is very important you Maintain your Hyper fighter Patrol 15 Kilometres out. Remember, Missile boat Mu, is available should any trouble occur.'

'Thank you sir.'

'To your ships!'

The pilots left the breifing room and headed for there fighters. The 9 Hyper fighters exited the hanger....

IC: And divided into 3 groups of 3:- Hyper fighter Group Alpha, Beta and Gamma. They set off on the patrol they had been assigned. It would be another boring patrol...

The Cano flickered into the system and began scanning the system.
"Jerome."
"Yes?"
"There appears to be a station in the system."
"Send out a contact message to see if we can dock for some down time and who this belongs to."
"Alright."

"Unidentified Station, This is the Cano. We are requesting permission to dock as well as to find out who this station and system belongs to."

ooc: the Cano is a scout
Moleland
09-06-2005, 19:42
IC:'This is Science Station D-34 to the Scout Ship Cano. You have entered restricted Mole space. Turn off your engines, and await the arrivial of Hyper fighter Group Alpha.'

'Hyper fighter Group Alpha, Move to inspect Scout ship Cano with your short-range sensors!'

After recieving this order, the nearest group of 3 fighters changed course and headed striaght at the Cano. As they got closer (I assume your long range sensors could detect this), the starfighters weapons showed up on the sensor array.

2 Turbo laser cannons.
2 Ion cannons
2 Proton Torpedoe launchers
Theao
09-06-2005, 19:45
The engines shut off.

"If this is restricted space, you should have somesort of beacon warning people away."

ooc: The Cano has four missle launchers and two laser cannons, no relation to SW lasers.

There was no response from the station. The 3 fighters got closer to the Cano They were now within inspection range. The sesnors scanned the ship, and any cargo bays onboard.

OOC: What cargo is the Cano carrying (If any)
Theao
09-06-2005, 19:50
ooc: the cargo is ore/rock samples, plant samples and other samples
Moleland
09-06-2005, 19:52
'Attention Scout Ship Cano. Your Cargo is not restricted. You are ordered to leave Mole space As soon as possible. Flight Group alpha will escort you to your Hyperspace point'
Theao
09-06-2005, 19:55
"Alright, the exit point is at co-ordinates 0294-5423-3539." The Cano transmitted.

ooc: the point is on the far side of the system
Moleland
09-06-2005, 20:02
The Hyper fighters Tailed the Cano, leaving only 20 metres between them and it.

The crew would probably get the impression they were not welcome here... Something big was happening in this area...
Theao
09-06-2005, 20:05
To the head fighter
"So what's in this system that makes it classified?" Cano Transmitted

ooc: Crew, singular. Only one person on the ship.

OOC: Can I join?

IC: The lone ship streaked from the warp, leaking plasma in a dozen places, its hull pitted and scarred from numerous repeated phaser strikes. One engine was down, and as it emerged, the shields flickered and suddenly died. The scout ship Danthe, with a crew of two, had been attacked by pirates, and jumped into warp without the proper calculations. Now, they could be anywhere in the galaxy... they just had to find out where.

Inside the small craft, in the pilots seat, crimson red lights flickered into life, bathing the cabin in their eerie glow. Flight Sergeant Andy Flintoff struggled to open his eyes, as he had banged his head during the - what could loosely called - bumpy ride. His co-pilot, Corporal Lisa Mond, was clinging to the armrests of her chair, her eyes wide with fear and trepedation. She noticed her was awake,"Sarg, where are we?"

"That... is a good question, Corporal. What do the readouts tell us?"

"What readouts?"

He looked down at the consoles. They were all dark,"Main computer must be down... but subspace radio is still up... what is that!"

They both looked outside, and saw the station in the distance, giant and revolving. Mond's expression changed from fear to wonderment,"Wow... it's beautiful. Can we contact them?"

"I can try... Unidentified station, this is the Snake Eater scout ship Danthe. We are in need of assistance, can you aid us?"
Moleland
09-06-2005, 20:08
'That information is classified. Continue your journey to your hyperspace point!'
Theao
09-06-2005, 20:10
"So the reason it's classified is classified. So then why is the reason classified?" Cano transmitted.

OOC: Of course!

IC: 'This is science Station D-34. You have entered restricted Mole space. Switch off your engines, and await inspection by Hyper fighter Group Gamma'

It was just visible to the crew, that 3 fighters changed course and headed towards the Danthe

Flintoff shut off the comm channel,"Shut off our engines.. they're already down. Everythings down; weapons, shields, sensors, engines... hell, life support and radio is all we've got left. We're not going anywhere"
Moleland
09-06-2005, 20:13

The pilot of Hyper fighter held back the urge to laugh, 'That information is classified'

The hyper fighters made there way towards the stricken ship.

They began their inspection of the ship.

OOC: What cargo, if any, are you carrying?

09-06-2005, 20:15
"So why is that information classified?" The Cano transmitted, while Jerome was laughing at how far this farce seemed to be headed.

OOC: It's a scout ship, not a cargo freighter. They aren't carrying anything. Only two people on board

IC: "This makes me kinda nervous, Sarg"

"Me too Corporal... if only the tracker were active, the Chimera could come and get us"

The inspection was complete. The hyper fighters continued to circle the ship...

'This D-34. We have detect your ship is not capable of leaving the sector. Transport Sigma 1 has been launched with a repair team. Stand by for a docking-operation'
Theao
09-06-2005, 20:21
The Cano appeared to vanish before re-appearing.

"It appears we are suffering the problem of insufficiant fuel."

"Confirmed. Many thanks"

Flintoff signed off once more, then looked at Mond,"I really don't like this, Corporal. First they scan us, then they dock with us... next thing you know they'll be tearing out the gel-packs from the circuitry"

SIC: The Captain of the station muttered to himself Can't these alien vessels be reliable!!!

'Attention Cano. Is your ship compatible with Nuclear Fuel?'
Theao
09-06-2005, 20:26
"Depends what you mean by Nuclear Fuel." Cano replied
Moleland

Transport Sigma 1 soon came within visual range of the ship...

This applies to both of you!

With the Cano's sensors, and the crew of the other scout ship could see what looked like so sort of giant assualt course. It was a large series of gates that went around in a cricle. the gates were big enough for a starfighter to fit through.

Slightly further away, there could be seen seem space Junk just floating around...
Moleland
09-06-2005, 20:29
"Depends what you mean by Nuclear Fuel." Cano replied

'This station ahs a large supply of backup fuel, derived form Uranium. Would your engines be compatible in using it?'

IC:The transport swung round, so it's docking port attached to the airlock.

'This is transport Sigma 1, requesting permission to come aboard!'
Moleland
09-06-2005, 20:35
"Possible, it would have to be run thougth the scanners first thought." Cano replied

'Confirmed. Transport Sigma 2 Will deliever you 2 containers of it. This should give enough fuel to return to your space.'

The transport was launched...
Snake Eaters
09-06-2005, 20:35
Flintoff stood up, and depressed a button on the wall. The door slid away,"Permission granted. I'm Flight Sergeant Flintoff, and this is my co-pilot, Corporal Mond"
Theao
09-06-2005, 20:38
As the fuel arrived.

"Unfortunatly the scanners report the nature of this fuel is incompatible with the engine in it's present form."

Flintoff stood up, and depressed a button on the wall. The door slid away,"Permission granted. I'm Flight Sergeant Flintoff, and this is my co-pilot, Corporal Mond"

As the door opened 3 moles stepped forward, all armed. The first two, looked exactly alike. They both 5ft 6" tall, and wore what looked like troop uniforms.

The other one looked different. He was slightly tallier. He spoke, 'I am commander Lin. What appears to be the problem with your ship?'

Man, I really don't like this... why didn't we break out the pulse rifles when we had a chance

"Pretty much everything, Commander. Weapons, propulsion, shields... everything bar life support and the comm-system is dead. Main computer is shut down for the most part, and as you can see, lighting is, for want of a better word, sparse"

'Is there some way they could make it compatible?'
Snake eaters may want to read this
As they spoke, 3 new ships were launched from the platform. Both ships were too far away to make accurate readings of them, but the looked similar to the hyper fighters.

One of them headed for the assault course, flying through the gates. Relatively slowly at first, but graduallly increasing it's speed with each lap.

The commander Nodded. 'The lack of lighting will not affect us. We shall help you repair your engine and... warp drive as well.'

As he said this 20 other moles entered, wearing white coats. Scientists, obviously. they brought with them repair Equipment.

'We are unfamilar with your technology, however, my repair crews we do their best to repair these two systems.'
