When:- During Blue Dwarf Shore leave.
"What do you mean?" asked a man. He stood tall, and wore a uniform,
highly decorated. His forearms bore 5 gold stripes and his chest
held many a medal.
"What I mean Admiral" said another man, also uniformed, not as
decorated as the Admiral, but still a very high ranking person, "Is
that I think we should send a ship to investigate."
The Admiral looked carefully over the readout on the computer
monitor, he understood less than he would have liked of what he saw,
but his subordinate was right, there was something wrong.
"I think you may be right Commander." said the Admiral. "But this
mission would be above even my authorisation…I need to get this
referred…"
-----------------
Where- Space Corp Command Conference Room
Admiral Travis swallowed, and stood before the jury of high-ranking
officials, these people represented the highest echelons of Space
Corp command, and amongst them sat both around the table, and on
monitor screens around the walls were each of the world leaders of
the nations that the Space Corp. represented.
He had explained his reasons for wanting to launch this mission;
they could see how important it was, couldn't they? They remembered
what a close shave it was the first time around, didn't they?
One thing was for sure, he prayed to god they did.
And if his knowledge of the situation was anything to go by, God may
be the only hope they had.
The people who had listened to his briefing, scrutinised his
propositions and considered his suggestions were in fact the only
people throughout the entire Earthen Colonies who knew exactly what
the dangers were, Admiral Travis had an idea, but even his security
access was not enough to see full picture.
"One question Admiral?" said one of the world leaders, "Who do you
propose carries out this mission?"
"A group of Simulants Sir" replied Travis.
"Simulants?" asked the world leader.
"Yes, a new force at our disposal. Soldiers with mechanical
implants, faster and stronger than any of our other Marine units,
Simulants are ultimate killing machines."
"Yes I know what they are Admiral, I just mean why should we send
Simulants on this mission?"
"Hopefully their combat skills will not be needed but if they are,
then I feel they're the only ones who stand a hell's chance of
surviving." Said Travis.
"Couldn't agree more" replied the president, who Travis now knew to
be the leader of the Martian colonies.
"But what of transport, the planet is so distant it will take
several decades to reach"
"I've thought of that Sir…there is one ship with an experimental
drive obtained from a parallel universe, a wormhole drive. They
could be there in minutes."
"The Blue Dwarf? That ship full of idiots?"
"I'm afraid so Sir…of course, the Simulants will have full control
of the mission, the Blue Dwarf will simply be a transport for them,
they will programmed for secrecy, the Dwarf will assume it's a
simple training mission."
"Surely they'd realise that for a simple training mission it's a
ridiculous distance?!"
"This IS the Blue Dwarf Sir…they used to let a hamster command them
for smegs sake…"
"Very well Admiral…we approve your proposal."
Who:- Blue Dwarf senior crew
Where:- Briefing room
"They want us to go WHERE?!" Jay asked, after Alota read out the
coordinates.
"Coordinates 0-0-0…why?"
"Does anyone have ANY idea where that IS?!" Jay asked, he looked
around the room and was greeted by nothing but blank faces. Efof
started pointing in random directions looking confused.
"Try the EXACT CENTRE OF THE GALAXY! It's crazy!!"
"Somewhere we've never been before!" said Phil, excitedly.
"Yes" said Jay "And somewhere that's impossible to reach…I'd have to
set up the wormhole about a day and a half's flight away from the
galactic core, the gravitational and electromagnetic forces there
are said to be phenomenal, I wouldn't wanna risk it"
"Ooh Sounds dangerous!" Said Seymour chewing some gum and trying to
look cool. "I'm sold!"
"Fair enough" said Alota ignoring the Ambassador, "Easy flight on
normal engines though I take it?!"
"Wouldn't say that" Jay replied "The whole areas surrounded by black
holes, I think I can get us through ok but it's gonna be a tight
squeeze….but can I ask something?"
"What?"
"What kind of mission needs us to go there?!"
"Well" said Phil "I got advised of a platoon of Simulants joining
the ship within the next 2 days, they'll probably shed some light"
"Well enough speculation" said Alota "In the meantime, shore leaves
cancelled, I want everyone aboard by 0300."
