I will probably be writing the next part before christmas is over for me (I go back Jan 8th, Monday). Keep in Touch!
Start Part 7 (Fianly, I'm writing more, remember to post a comment when your done:
The Jammy Dodger floated through the black darkness of the New York badlands, its engines cut as it bumped pasted the black monoliths that glided by. Roddy sat in his chair, waiting for the navigation officer to tell Rita and Him that they had picked up their Liberty Rouge Target. Roddy thought to himself, how long it had been, that year since he had met up with Rita again on the Helghast Resitance base, Vekta.
He smiled remebering how he Rita, and the Inquisition brought down the entire Helghast plot and succeded in the destruction of the Helghast's Core on the Planet Killer. Without that, the massive battleship was no longer the destroyer of Worlds but an Ordinary Battleship. A powerful one none the less, but The entire Sector was once again safe.
Roddy had resigned from his official spot in the Inquisition after that, Rita and Him had left to once again travel the stars as Freelancers. He still however, had his Sword and His Hecuter 9 pistol, and the small 'I' medallion around his neck.
"Roddy! You lazy ass, stop daydreaming and go and check the coolant tanks!" Shouted Rita, startling Roddy bank into reality. "Finaly! You have been sitting there for about half an hour, staring out the window!"
"Sorry, Rit, m'dear, just remebering old times then!"
"Well, strat thinking of new times and get down to the lower decks! The cheif engineer needs you!"
"Yes, Drill sergeant mam! I'll get right on it! Don't whip me please!" he said sarcasticly and kissed her on the check before walking out the door. "Call me if we get there! Don't want to miss any of the fighting!"
Rita shook her head, "Whatever am I going to do with you Roddy..." She smiled "Damn, It's good he DID find me on that god forsaken rock. She sat down at the main ordanace chair.
"Nav officer, How till we pick up this Scum on our scanners!"
"Should be long now, miss Rita, We pinged a Small scout deep in the asteroids, probably 100k off to starboard!" The man responded from his station in the navigation pit.
"What-ho Captain! Speak of the devil! We got a rouge Gunboat ahead accompined by what appears to be 10 bloodhounds."
"Already? Call Roddy to the bridge and hit the master Switch, were going to combat mode!" She leaded over the back of the ordinance chair, placed the beverage in the holder and grabbed the two joysticks. Roddy's voice came through her personal through mic and earpeice;
"The coolant leak was bad, but me and the Cheif Engineer were able to temporaily patch it. I send in a request to the mates at Alster Shipyard to get us some replacement parts and hopefully they can responsed without asking too many questions as to where the Dodger came from."
"Alright! We have hostiles so hurry up! We need you to do the combat piloting!"
"I know! IM already at the main lift, I should be at the Bridge in 30 seconds!"
The screens of all eight of the dodgers turrets glowed on. They had been set to fire forwrds and the tagets were all displaying the same rock, a few hundred meters ahead. Rita manipulated the controls, aiming the guns around. The screens all moved together and aimed at the same target. Tapped a few buttons and the port turrets when to the left joystick and the starboard to the right. They all seamed to be functioning. The glowing touch screens showed the power bars of the guns. A quick slide of her finger took the power from the Starboard battle razor and put it into the Port.
Setting everything abck to starderd, she ajusted her seat as Roddy ran though and sat in the pilot chair.
"Alright mates! Lets rock and roll and kick some rouge ass!"
"Setting target on the Pirate gunboat!" Said an officer from the deck. Through the purple Nebula, a FFI went on and Rita aimed the turrets towards it. She felt the dodger move slight as Roddy ajusted it to give her a better aim.
Red beams lacerated the haze and hit the shield, The baneful energies were absored and the Dodger Responded with a blast from its Inferno Cannon. The Rouge Captain knew he was introuble. When he had been told a gunboat was coming after him he thought that he would be fighting something with a little less punch.
"Rita! His sheilds are almost down! Switch to the main cannon after the next Inferno blast! I can get to a good location around this large asteroid!
"Aye! Thanks Roddy!"
With a silent flash, the rouge Gunboats sheilds flared down and it fled. It ran into a tunnel in a large asteroid and turned off its engines, hoping to conceal its location. Rita, Knew better, she set full power to the forward cannon and the Battle Razors.
THe beams of pure death smashed the obsidian rock, punching through it and hitting the Rouge Gunboat. It had thought to be invisible but with its powerdown, the battle razors made short work of it and it exploded.
Roddy hit a few buttons and the main hold opened up, he had hoped form some survivors. He quickly spun the lumbering gunboat around; "Rita, take out the remaining fighters, they are only bloodhounds, shouldn't be much a fight now that the heavy stuff is dead!"
"This is the fun bit!" Rita said and set the guns to Stardboard to Right Joystick and Port to Left. Sitting back and letting her fingers do all the work, the guns flashed out and ships exploded, one of them even got infront of the Dodger and she hit it with the forward cannon for some kicks. There were no survivors from that particular ship.
However one of the bloodhounds flew straight at the Dodger and when teh Order produced beams strcuk it, it aborbed them and flew too the side.
"Scanning station! Thats not an ordinary bloodhound!"
"Your right!" Replied the officer. "Scanners show it has a really high weapon and sheild energy reading! Showing class 9 guns and a Class 10 sheild!"
"Damn! Must be something new these Liberty Scumbags developed! Switching to battle razors!"
"A comm channel has opened up over the Universal frequency!" Said the Comm's officer.
"Why, if it isn't Roddy and Rita! With MY ship! How many years ago was it, when I was still with the mollies and we had the biggest heist New London Had seen! And you two ruined it!"
With that the pilot strafed the side of the Dodger, its guns taking its sheilds down to about 80% before it pulled away. "Before I take my leave, The n ame is Lt Wodgiss, of the Rouges, I'll be seeing you around! I have no intention of Dying today!"
With that, the strange figure in his Super bloodhound sped off towards the california Jump gate.
ooc: PArt 7 is NOT done, but I am being force away from teh comp :'( I'll finish it tomorrow!
"He is Getting away! Fire a Cruise Disruption Torpedo!" Shouted Roddy to the Navigation officer.
"Aye Captain! Seeing coordinates to the TArgets projected destination! He is already 10 kilometres away and moving fast."
"Torpedo armed! Fire in three, two one, Go!" said Rita and hit the fire button. The large missle streaked silently into the dark nebula, at a kilometre a second. The Rouge Pilot expecting as much, swered to the right as the time-delay projectile zipped passed. It detonated and the Pule vista was lit up in an explosion of blue energy, rippling out 5 kilometres before subsiding.
Wodgiss kept goin and soon was out of range.
"Damnit! Take us into all ahead full! With our sauperior engines we can catch him!" Said roddy, punching the air in frustration.
"Aye captain, engaging cruise in three two one, activateed!" A muffle blast came from the lower decks.
"Achtung! K?hlmittel-Leckstelle!" Said the Feminene German voice.
"Roddy! I though you said ytou fixed the coolant problem!" Said Rita
"Blast it!" Said Roddy "T'was only a temporay thing! I had no Idea it would hold only twenty minutes!"
"Well do something! I'm gonna see what Can be done form here, direct the circuits and such. We can make a few systems like this, but its dangerous!"
At that moment the small incoming Message icon glowed green on her control screen.
"Roddy! Its Alster shipyards! They send you a reply about the spare parts! Damn, I thnk they answere in German...

"We'll then! Go see what yopu can do about really fixing it this time, and I'll get the coordinates set for New London! It should feel good to get home after 10 years of avoiding that place!"
"Indeed it shall, I never travelled there my self when you were missing, I wonder who still lives in apartment complex."
------------------------------------------
*Three weeks later*
The Jammy Dodger limped through the trade lanes of the New London system. It had been hard, many of the systems onboard the ship had been over heating and as a result, breaking down. Fortunatly for Roddy and teh Engineers, Nothing was broken beyond repair.
The trade lane deposited them a few thousand kilometres off of the planets gravity well adn they were greeted by a Passing BAF fleet.
"Hail, Jammy Dodger, this is Battleship Magnificant! Where are you guys headed?"
"Just taking a vacation on the planet! Take care!"
"Alright! Enjoy your stay on Planet New London!" The passing battleship headed towards Cambridge.
"Alright mates, Im going into manual Control, Sit back and enjoy the ride-"
"Achtung! Reaktor?berlastung!"
"Shut up! We really need to get that blasted AI changed to English!" Said Rita, fingering her pistol.
The clouds parted before the sleek green craft as it belched black smoke into the raining night sky on the The two's home planet. In the distance, they could see a streak of daylight as dawn approached. Roddy piloted the Dodger and the trafic controler at Westminster space port directed them to the bearth.
As soon as all the bumbing and shaking had stopped, Roddy let out a deep breath. He didn't think that the dodger could hold anymore. they DESPERATLY need the new parts.
"Alright crew! You guys can take a week of shore leave, we'll call you if we need you, but only in an Emergancy." Said Rita and she turned toward the ramps that lead to the street levels.
"Well, we made it!" he said as they walked down the narrow, well lit street.
"Aye, it feels so familiar in a distant way..." She gazed into some stores that they passed. "Remeber, Joe? He had his old "Tradin' Post" that he would buy the crap we found in the canals and sell as Alien Artifacts. Its too bad he got busted for Cadamine traficing."
"Hahaha! Yea, that guy was funny, There there was Sally Mason and Her husband. They owned the Taven down on The main canal."
"Why don't we go for a drink, before we check out the apartment?"
"Sounds like a capital plan! better then that synthetic crap we usually end up drinking!"
They walked apst the rainy shops and stores, remebering old times, before they reached the entrance of their Old Tavern. Opening the door, they saw that nothing much had changed; The same old tables, the same pictures, the same collection of bottles from the edge worlds and other assorted oddities.
"Well well well! IF it isn't my old two favortie folks in all of Sirius!" A large heavy set man in bartenders cloths came from a back room. "Roddy and Rita! Its been what ten eyars since I saw you last?"
"Paul Mason, you old rouge!" Said Roddy, "Still helping Sally Run the pub?"
"Nah, Sally died in a Phaontom atatck on Cambridge a few months ago. We still are thriving but since that vacation, it has been different around here..."
"Well, that is really unfortunate, Wished we could have been here, but we have had many things happen in the past ten years. We came here to pick up some parts for the Jammy Dodger!" Said Rita.
"You mean your old mouldering Tug? That old girl is still sitting down in your garage, didn't think it needed new parts!"
"Not that Dodger, this one." Said Roddy and he Produced the picture of Rita and Him standing infront of the gunboat on Planet Gran Canaria.
"Thats YOUR ship! But thats a Rheinland Millitary grade Gunboat? How did you get something like that!" Said Paul, in awe. He also looked at All the markings on Roddy's Jacket. "What do things pink dashes mean?"
"Well, those are Nomad fighter kill markings! Glad you asked"
"I don't know what you guys have been too in the past ten years, but please, I would like to find out! Drinks are on me!

Hey Verg, good job man. Could ya bring the HF in there somewhere? Mark Kaine is my guy, make him in HF, civilian, whatever, just if you can fit him in somewhere. I liked how you made an excuse for the PKF's demise. The only mistakes i found were spelling mistakes.
I am a long-absent Supreme Commander, Executive Commander, Grand Admiral, Fleet Admiral, and Captain in the mighty Hellfire Legion. I have returned, and am on an urgent mission from Drake Thastus to return the Legion to its former glory, and to claim the galaxy for its own. Only then will I be able to rest.
RP Story (Still deciding whether or not to finish)
