Begin log:
We are on course on time and, so far, safe. We picked up some strange reading a while back, it could have just been debris bouncing off the shield.
Shield Failure
Humm, this isn't good. This debris packs a wallop. Activate shield batteries.
Shield restored
There go those readings again. This time it is on the close range scanners. Hey, Orion go check this out, there must be something wrong with the scanner.
5 minutes later..
Oh welcome back Orion, did you find the problem?
Just a minor glitch.
Wa...Wait... You're not Orion! No! Wait, Please! DONT! NO! {slam}

Incoming Transmission: Freeport 9
Bowex Transport Iota 1-4, this is Freeport 9. We have you on long range scanners. Is there a problem? You seem to have stopped dea-
-Transmission Hijacked-
Civilian Trader, drop your cargo or be destroyed. You have something we need.
-Transmission Restored-
-ota 1-4. Do you copy?
The intruder still attempting to decode the ships navigation systems, kills the transmission.
On Freeport 9:
Ensign- "Sir, we've lost contact with the Bowex Vessel."
Lieutenant Commander- "Send Gamma Wing to check it out."
Ensign- "Aye, sir! Gamma Wing, this is transmission control. You are to head to the Omega-41 Jump Hole immediately. We have lost contact with a transport in that area. Make sure it makes it here safely."
Gamma Leader- "Roger, changing course."
Back at Bowex Transport:
Gamma Leader- "Unknown Vessel, you are to leave the area immediately."
Unknown Vessel- "After taking what's rightfully ours."
Gamma Leader- "Gamma Wing, destroy the unknown vessel."
The Unknown Vessel released two Sunslayer class torpedoes, destroying the transport. It spun around, tractoring in the salvageable items, including the escape pod, before quickly activating its cruise engines.
Gamma Leader- "Fire a cruise disruptor!"
Gamma Two- "Sir, we're a bomber wing. We don't have any."
Gamma Leader- "God d**nit! It got away! .....Nice job ladies..... This is going on our permanent records... {sigh}"
