Wake up...wake up!
The captain woke up.
Captain Rodrigo Melanez: What's happenin'?
Rodent: Sir, we have strange signatures. I tought you wanna take a look. *hands him the datapad*
Rodrigo: Strange... Plot course for it.
Rodent: Aye, a... What?!
Rodrigo: You heard me.
Rodent: It could be a black hole, sir.
Rodrigo: That's what this ship was built for...
Rodent: Ah! Fine.
Rodrigo looks at the datapad once more...
Rodrigo: The Auditore can do this!
He went back to sleep.
---
Rodent: Sir, wake up. Sir!
Rodrigo: Uhm umh what what?!
Rodent: According to our scans, its a un-charted jump hole.*gives him the datapad*
Rodrigo: Shall we try it on?
Engineer: Sir, I wouldn't advise that.
Rodrigo: Just... do it.
Engineer: But...
Rodrigo: Didn't I made my self clear?!
Engineer: Yes, sir...
---
Rodent: We are here, sir.
Rodrigo: I see. It looks... normal?
Rodent: It doesn't feel right. I mean... we are in the middle of Magellan!
Rodrigo: The Hellfire Legion could have maped this... But we don't have time for that.
Rodent: I will put up extra barriers... just in case...
Rodrigo was watching the jump hole from the bridge.
Rodrigo: Can it be possible?*he whispers*
---
The whole ship starts to shake.
Rodent: Hold on folks!
They made it.
Rodent: We made it! *he shouts*
Rodrigo grins.
Rodrigo: Sit down!
Rodent: Okay...
Lara: Long range scanners are picking up a massive energy signature from a nebula.
Rodrigo: Thats it!
Rodent: What?
Rodrigo: You'll see...
---
Rodent: I can't see anything... It's useless.
Lara: The scanners don't work in this nebula.
Rodrigo: Find it manually.
Rodent: I will try.
Rodrigo starts to check on his other crew members.
The Auditore is ready.
Rodrigo can't stop thinking about the possibilities.
Engineer: Hey captain! Looks like we made it.
Rodrigo: Yes, we did.
He continues.
Crewman Donelly: Captain, we are receiveing a transmission from the Hellfire Legion.*hands him the laptop*
Rodrigo: What is it?
Transmission: You should come back.
Rodrigo: Why? Why should we?
Transmission: Don't say you haven't been warned.
Transmission ended.
Crewman Donelly: What was that about?
Rodrigo didn't answer that question...
---
Lara: Wait... There is another signature 6 clicks from us. It's smaller than the original singature.
Rodrigo: Okay... lets chec-
-IMPACT ALERT-
-IMPACT ALERT-
A huge battleship comes out of nowhere.
Lara: What is that?!
Rodrigo: Rodent! Get us out of here!
Rodent: I'm try-
-SUB SYSTEMS FAILING-
Rodrigo: Lets get the hell outta here! *grabs Lara*
Rodent: No! I can still save our ship!
Rodrigo: Don't throw your life away!
Rodent: No!
Rodrigo: Dammnit Rodent! Then we will leave without you!
They start running towards the escape pods.
-ENGINE FAILURE-
-KINETIC BARRIERS ON 10%-
Rodent over speaker: Damn damn damn...
A explosion knocks Lara down.
Rodrigo: Lara!
Rodrigo examines her. Her leg is hurt. She can't walk.
Lara: Go! Leave me!
Rodrigo: I won't leave you!
Rodrigo see's another injured crewman. He goes to help him.
A bunch of rubble falls on Lara.
Rodrigo turns around.
Rodrigo: Lara! LARA!
Rodent over speaker: EKG is flatline, sir. She's gone.
Rodrigo takes a deep breath.
Rodrigo: I wan't every single atom or what ever of energy left on this ship... on the weapon's system! Kill the bastards!
-POWER CORE FAILURE-
-POWER CORE FAILURE-
-LIFE SUPPORT FAILING-
Rodent: Thats not good...
Rodrigo starts running towards the escape pod.
He see's fire and death all around him.
His ship.
His life is burning.
Suddenly.
Everything stops.
For a few minutes there is absolute silence.
-SHIELDS RECHARGING-
-SHIELDS ON 15%-
Rodrigo: What?
Rodent: *coughs* What the...*coughs*
The battleship was falling back.
Rodent: It's falling back... The ship is falling back...
Rodrigo: But, we didn't make a scratch on it...
Rodent: It's falling back! IT'S FALLING BACK! WOHOOO!
Rodrigo can't believe whats happening.
-CRITICAL SYSTEMS BACK ONLINE-
The fire extinguishers start to work.
Rodrigo: Status report!
Rodent: Hull is breached on decks 2, 4 and 7. No survivors. Deck 3 rubbled in.
Rodrigo: Damn...
Rodent: Engines are still a no-go. Comms too.
Rodrigo: So we are out here? Alone? What about the rest of the crew?
Rodent: According to system scans... 21 people are alive... out of 89...
Rodrigo: *whispers to himself* This isn't happening...This isn't happening...
