Previously: The L.S.S. Mewton searched for lost Mysterion artifacts from the planet of death. A Blacktron smuggler ship is the only trace left...
About this creation
Omegon-System Pirate captain: “Crap! 12 months of work and all we have is crap!” Pirate 1: “But cap, we didn’t know that the M-tron debris was empty. It must be old and other people always robbed everything.”
Grox: “But we found other stuff, too. What’s with the C.O.P. equipment?” Pirate 1: “We could sell it to Coalition rebells.” Pirate 2: “And what’s with the boxthing? Isn’t it anything worth?”
Pirate captain: “Mh. At least its technology is high developed but Grox said me, it’s damaged. We can’t use it.” Pirate 1: “But others are may interested. Let’s sell that ugly thing to the C.O.P. or MAOX.” Pirate Daniels: “Or the Earth alliance. I heard, they’re searching for such curious objects.” Pirate captain: “Good idea. But not the earth. The Coalition will give us millions! It#s decided. Put that thing into the ship, we’ll fly into C.O.P. space.”
Pirate Daniels: “WAIT! I…I mean, that’s stupid. This thing was there for many centuries. It’s much more worthful than they would pay us. Maybe we can repair it. Maybe it’s a powerful weapon. Something we can use to conquer the universe…” Pirate captain: “You mean? Mh, maybe you’re right… The Blacktronian empire… ruled by ME! HAHAHAHA!!!”
Cpt. Calak: “March, 15th, 3001 captain’s log: We followed the course of an assumed blacktron ship, which probably entered the planet of death before the Mysterions came. Our hope is to find stolen Mysterion relicts which could give us a better understanding for the mysterion invasion. Our research lead us to the Omegon system, a giant asteroid field and probably a base for space pirates…”
Lt. Vega: “The tachyon radiation level reaches its climax here. The scans only shows asteroids high in minerals.” Lt. Wu: “Probably the minerals cover our scans. We should try some optical scans on the bigger rocks to find irregularities in the natural shapes.” Cpt. Calak: “Make it so.”
Lt. Vega: “We’re lucky. Ther’re expansions shaped into the rocks. Artificial holes, towers. There’s a smuggler base in front of us. But I can’t watch in it.” Lt. LeGonze: “The trace ended here for a while. Maybe nobody’s there.” Lt. Wu: “Maybe we’re already detected.”
Cpt. Calak: “We stay behind one of the other asteroids. Using the main hangars would be suicide if the station is still populated. Lt. Vega, did you find anything like an entrance more hided?” Lt. Vega: “Yeah. A small gate behind the defence towers.” Cpt. Calak: “LeGonze, Wu and Vega, take a shuttle and enter the station undiscovered. We stay here and watch for activities.”
Pirate 1: “An earth spaceship. It’s hided behind asteroid X-9382. The crew consists of about 300 people.” Pirate captain: “That doesn’t seem to be an official police mission. But 300 are too much. I fear we’re discovered…”
A shuttle reaches the base…
Lt.LeGonze: “Vega, are you able to open the lock?”
Lt.Vega: “Sure. Cracking unknown security systems was my favourite subject on the academy. And we’re in.” Lt. LeGonze: “Let’s go. Quickly!”
Pirate captain: “We’re leaving. Nobody can find the device, that’s the most important. We can return later and take our treasure. Parker should start the distraction rocket and we go to the ship.”
Lt. Vega: “The station’s security system. A very old one. Shouldn’t be a problem.”
Lt. Vega: “Weapons and shields deactivated. I’ll need some minutes to open a few security locks but for now, we’re safe.” Lt. Wu: “Where to start?”
Lt. LeGonze: “Vega, try to enter the database. We’re starting a tour meanwhile.”
Pirate 1: “Running away isn’t very brave.” Pirate captain: “Shut up! I won’t be catched by the earth police. Where’s Parker? Some has to search him. We’ll start in five minutes.”
Lt. Vega: “Wu, LeGonze, listen. I’ve found the smugglers. They’re on lock 4 2 decks over you.” Lt. LeGonze: “Understood. Wu, we continue this way!”
The pirate discovers them but keeps hided. Pirate Daniels: “That must be Wu and LeGonze. I’m hard up for time…”
Ensign Weaver: “Captain, we’re getting trouble. 2 mysterion objects enter the system.”
Ensign Weaver: “Object 730 seems to be a destroyer. The protection is heavy and a high radiation level comes from it. The other object…crazy. 731 is covered with plants!! In space? How’s that?” Cpt. Calak: “The only known species able to grow plants in vacuum are Photythians. Probably, this object got in contact with one of their spores and started a symbiose. Nevermind, at least one of them looks powerful so we shouldn’t intervent for now. But keep the weapons and shields prepared.”
Pirate Daniels: “Ah, here you are Parker!” Parker: “What’s going on?” Pirate Daniels: “A ship called Mewton is hunting us. We’re leaving the station now. Unfortunately, there’s no time to deal with you.”
Parker: “One moment, I just start the distraction…urgh!!” Pirate Daniels: “Sorry, man. But I need your authorization card. I have no time to explain.”
Not anymore Pirate Daniels: “Phase one finished. Now I have to rewrite the frequence of the distraction rocket.”
Daniels: “Delta-delta- 3-4-7-2-9. Activate Mysterion sequence for object 730 and 731. Start rocket now!”
A small object leaves the base…
…and starts its work.
Object 730 and 731 follow the rocket and leave the station behind.
Lt. Wu: “M-tron technology, very old. Anti-matter patrons, Coalition weapons. I’m sure they robbed the wreck on the planet of death. But I can’t see anything mysterious.” Lt.LeGonze: “Let’s check the next deck.”
Meanwhile… Pirate captain: “Where are Daniels and Parker? Damn, we don’t have time. Grox, open the lock.”
Pirate captain: “Start the ship, away from here, the distraction rocket won’t distract the earth ship for long.”
The Blacktron ship leaves the base from a secret hangar. Ensign Weaver: “Captain, a Blacktron ship is leaving the asteroid.” Cpt. Calak: “Interception course.”
A little later... Lt. Vega: “Captain, the station is abandoned. No hints of any known technology connected with the Mysterions.” Cpt. Calak: “The captured Blacktron don’t want to cooperate. They say, that there’s nothing more than the equipment we already found. Maybe the trace ends here.”
Lt. Vega: “Wait. I detect a curious signal behind this wall. It’s a secret gate. I think I can open it…yeah.”
Meanwhile... Daniels: “Delta-delta-3-4-7-2-9. Open channel. Commander Daniels at the old man… please come.” Old man: “shrummk..zzzz.z.zzhere…Da…Daniels? Mission status? Zzshr..” Commander Daniels: “Sir. Mission complete. The device was found by the U.M.R.C. I’ll go and uncover my identity now and explain its functions to them.”
Old man: “Very good, Daniels. So, the years of work were worth it. Keep in mind: THIS our only chance to win the war. I trust in you. DON’T fail. And…one more thing: If our plan will work, everything will change. YOU KNOW, there’s no return for you. Anything I should tell our men from you?” Commander Daniels: “Mh, yes. One thing: Tell Jennifer, tell her I love her. And that I’ll meet her again, someday in another world. That’s my promise.” Old man: “I will. The old man out.”
Awesome, I love the microscale base in the beginning, workind in a rock/meteorite, very original. I see you use the original name for the mars-on-life figure, Vega, I suddenly want to make a life-on-mars moc.
Keep it up Christian !
The pirate ships are cool, and the interiors too. A good episode, but I have to confess I never liked Cap Calack's figgy. He looks like a baby deliquent.
