Hope's Guardian

The small door at the side of the hangar opened once again. Inside the hangar people were walking around the ship, examining it carefully and noting the damage. Some things have been fixed in a hurry to hold the ship together. It still wasn't in a shape to fly again."Alright everyone, listen up. We have acquired an IRG Powercell for the ship. It's currently stored on Haven. Additionally we contacted the Core to help with the repairs, since we don't have any knowledge of the ship." He paused for a brief second taking a breath, "We need the ship on Haven before the day ends. This also counts for the surplus ship. I suppose the ones who are accompanying me already know it, right?" He looked into the faces of the crew and saw three people nodding. Those people were the same ones who accompanied him to fetch the surplus ship and who initially checked the ship. "Good, move the ships over, we're leaving in 24 hours towards Dagger Station." Garrus nodded to signal the crew they're supposed to continue. All of them moved to different directions, picking up tools and making the ship ready to get shipped.

The lead mechanic stepped next to Garrus and looked at the ship. "Ya do know that we might 'ave been able to fix it ourselves, dontcha? But it's your call G and I do appreciate that you got some 'elp for us. Are they willing to share their knowledge?" "We'll see about that but that was my intention when I selected you to accompany me. I take the surplus is ready to be moved to Haven?" "'Tis a bit difficult, we used the good parts on this one, ya know, the ones that are perfectly fine and no surplus crap. So we only have some internals and the plating floating around." "That's what we decided to do, didn't we? Anyways, if that's the case, bring the leftovers to Haven." "Gotcha G, we're ready in five." Turning around with a silent nod, Garrus made his way to the door.

24 Hours Later on board the Carrier Haven

---

The ship and the parts were all loaded up and were resting in Haven's hangar as the ship started to move. Slowly it began to leave Coronado, plotting course to the Omegas. The crew was on edge as the cruiser flew through space, the Omegas weren't as dangerous as the Omicrons but they still weren't a safe place. Suddenly the intercom in Garrus' room started to make a noise. "Sir, we're approaching the destination. It seems like they sent out a fighter to bring us into mooring position." "Proceed, I'll be at the bridge in a few minutes. Open a communications channel while I'm on my way." Garrus moved out of his room towards the elevator.

Eventually he made his way to the bridge and hailed the Station close to the carriers position. "This is Garrus Hendrix of the Forlorn Hope to docking control of Dagger Station. We're here for the planned repairs on a "Guardian" class vessel. The ship and some surplus parts are stored on the Carrier. Do we have permission to moor and unload the ship and parts?" Garrus now was waiting for clearance to moor and meet the Core's mechanics for the planned repairs and installation of the new tech.
