Full story

<span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:100%]I used to look up at the night sky when I was a boy, wondering If I could ever be part of it, like my father. My father was a BAF member in training, about to fulfil his first mission, he said he'd allow my to go. I jumped for joy on my bed, made from optic fiber cables. My mother was an arrogant women, never kind to me or my father, always nagging. I sometimes wish I had another mother, but deep inside I know she loves me, especially the day I was taken. I remember that day, like it was 3 minutes ago. It all started on planet New leeds, the home of my family, my father and I had just entered his BAF ship and were about to take off. We did so, and a holographic Navigational Map appeared infront of the window infront of my father. A waypoint was centered not too far away, we went towards it. Then it all happened in a flash, a speeding missle collided with the side of the ship, stopping us dead in flight. Lazers illuminated the sky, and they rained down on the ships hull. My father pushed me into an escape pod, just as the interior began to burn. Then, through the window of my escape pod, I watched my father burn, in the void of space. A mysterious force pulled me from the burning ship and into a strange compartment. The escape pod turned and I saw a ship, tractoring me in. It was labelled with a clover.... Mollys... A door opened and I was placed inside a container. The journey to my unknown destination wasn't very important, just darkness. Finally, I was introduced to sunlight as my pod was removed from the dark container. A tall man, with an odd deviced hooked up to his nose, opened my pod up, and smiled.

"This a fresh ones ghostface?" Asked the tall man.

"Yes, son of a BAF officer," Someone replied.

The tall man grabbed me and thrust me out of the pod. He dragged me down a long tunnel and into a strange mine filled with an awful stench. He grabbed a mining device and thrust it into my hand.

"Dig the rocks, later an officer will come an escort you to your cell," Said the tall man.

I placed my device into a crack in the rocks and pressed a button. Rock began to fall and small white dust could be seen. After about 6 hours of this work, an officer came and picked me up, along with some other workers. I didn't realise others where here until he picked us up, so many.... The cells were pretty dull, nothing but a sink, and a bed. I had a roommate, named Scyllious, who taught me about my location. Malta, the outcast, the outcast guard everything, including space location, and other factions. I repeated this process for about 6 years, and then the opportunity of a lifetime hit me. One day the teenager of a don, about 13 or 14, was allowed to wonder the mines. While playing on the rocks, he accidently fell into a dink hole (what the miners call holes you can't see). I rushed over to him and grabbed his hand, and pulled him out. The guard observed my actions and ordered me to follow him. I went out of the cave and down a long path. I looked up and veiwed a gigantic tower, we went in. We entered an elevator inside the building and rode up to the top floor, were we entered a large room with a circlier table in the middle. A white haired man, with a cardimine tube in his nose looked at me. The guard explained to him what I had done, and the white haired man ordered for my release. After my release I was joined the outcast guard with a sabre. I slowly worked my way up through a timespan of 26 years, from sabre, to falcata, to rogue gunboat, to Outcast Destroyer. On the 2nd day of having my Outcast Destroyer, I gained a crew of about 8. There names were Vulcust, Heptus, Artemis, Ramies, Gultom, Jewdimule, Helldrake, and Rickstormu. On the 6th day, I was sent of a very short patrol through Alpha, just to make sure everything was right. But then, something came up on my transmitters.

"Repeat, repeat, an outcast Destroyer with a crew of 8, unit 441 is ordered to be captured."

I paniced, I was unit 441. My crew were also freed slaves, who had worked up through the ranks. Then it hit me, what if these guys wanted to recomminsion us into slavery.

"Ramies, fire up the cruisers, Heptus, set destination, Planet New Leeds."

A swam of Falcata bombers formed behind us as the pursuit started. Luckily i made it all the way to leads, but my ship was heavily damaged. I was about to get blown of the face of the universe along with my crew when a mysterious group of ships swarmed around me, forming a cloud of ships. One of these ships broke apart from the swarming pack, and beckoned me to follow. I followed him, and he contacted my ship. He told me who they where, and what they did, and I became interested. Later, I was accepted into this faction, which was named the Ravens, and I learned the name of on member, Jackal. My destroyer was fixed up and refitted to fit the Raven set up. I also took up the name of Repanus 4, and named my destroyer the Rendox.
