Chaos Theory, Pt 8
The remaining pirate frigates hurriedly positioned themselves all around the asteroid and covered literally every angle all around. Once they were in position, each and every one of them extended a large metallic sphere from underneath their bellies.
The spheres glowed a dull orange as streams of luminous energy shot out towards all the other spheres on the frigates. This resulted in a barely-glowing lattice that surrounded the asteroid on all sides.
But as the seconds ticked by, the energy lattice glowed brighter, and the signal they produced strengthened bit by bit.
The Admiral watched as a slew of data scrolled through the screens on her bridge. Though she didn’t have any visual confirmation, she could easily tell what the pirates were up to just outside.

Ravens of Eternity Chaos Theory, Pt 9
The last of the four Federation frigates cleared the hangar and joined the others in advancing on the fighter swarm. Their own fighters had done their best to quell the pirates, but were slowly losing. Drones were meant to be a supporting force, not a main attack force. The fleet desperately needed frigate support on their side as well. On the bridge of her ship, the Admiral watched as the battle unfolded before her. Drones harassed the pirates while her fighters polished them off. Their discipline and skill were certainly an advantage over the more reckless and chaotic pirates. “All ships,” she ordered. “Sync up to the asteroid’s false transport signature. If they’re successful with their port, we need to jump in with them!” Though she was appraised of the fig
Ravens of Eternity Chaos Theory, Pt 10
The galaxy spun back into place as everyone ported into unfamiliar space. Every fighter slowed as the pilots shook off their dizziness and disorientation. Both fleets had ended up near a mostly ocean planet. Many large domed cities littered its surface and multiple stations floated in its orbit. No-one had seen it before, and couldn’t identify it at all. On the bridge, the Admiral took initiative and ordered all her drones and fighters to move back to her position. Not knowing where they were, she intended to turtle up and keep her remaining forces tight. She spoke, but her voice was somewhat distant, as though she was waking up from a dream. “Recall all units to our position,” she ordered. “And report on field status.”
Ravens of Eternity Terms of Surrender
It was only a few hours later that the Admiral, her brother, Eva, and Miko found themselves on the aquatic planet they had accidentally ported to. The Admiral was originally going to bring her chiefs of security and engineering, but Eva and Miko convinced her otherwise. “Don’t bring the redshirt,” Eva had argued. “If anything happens, I’m more than capable enough. If I can’t handle it, no way he could.” Miko echoed the same sentiments about the engineering chief. Although the Commander didn’t like the idea of putting the two of them in the same room with any enemy of the Federation, the Admiral thought differently. The two of them helped turn the tide of the fight for her. If not for either of them, they would have been in significantly different circumstances. Their
Ravens of Eternity Early Negotiations
After they had completed their official surrender, Retholis and his retinue escorted the four to their new lodgings. Of course, they had also made preparations for the rest of the thousands of people on Tartarus Base to come down and live planet-side as well. Where they were all to be relocated during their temporary “visit” was in a large compound that sat along the edge of the dome. It certainly wasn’t anything fancy, especially when compared to the splendor of the buildings closest to the center, but it wasn’t anything to sneeze at either. Since they were up on the edge, they had a perfect view out into the vast ocean. And far out in the distance were a number of other domes, each in multiple different directions. The compound itself was relatively cosy, with a number of apartment buildings littered all over.
Ravens of Eternity Here and There
Eva walked down her dorms’ hallway and passed door after door until she came to her assigned unit. This was technically the dorm where the Admiral, the Commander, and all of the other officers were assigned. However, she, Miko, and Redstar were also assigned here. When the Drogar were determining who the Admiral’s officers were, she told them that they were part of her personal retinue. It was purely because she wanted to keep her test pilots close to her. As EVA reached for her room, the door slid open with a near silent SHWA and invited her in. She walked through and took a few steps before the door shut behind her with a SHWIF. The room was perhaps 20 square meters at best - twice as large as her hab on Tartarus. In fact everything was twice as large - hallways, doorways, everyways. Since the Drogar were
Ravens of Eternity Fighting for Attention
After a lengthy family meeting, Eva and Miko met up to cool off. Mack had really dug himself in a hole while they weren’t looking. With everyone around, they were all able to pry the truth out of him - that he had been using opiates for a few months. All completely unchecked. Even he had forgotten how many pills he was taking per day. “I’m glad we got him before things got too deep,” said Eva. Frustration was embedded in her tone. Miko nodded in agreement. But she couldn’t understand why Mack took the medication in the first place. “Why did he have those opiates?” she asked. “Did he hurt himself? Or did someone else hurt him?” “He never said,” Eva replied. “Just that too many things were eating away at him. Somethi
Ravens of Eternity Staying Sharp
Over the course of a few cycles, a number of them had formed up into small skirmishing groups of eight people each. Though they had other duties to attend to, they made sure to spend at least a couple of hours practicing their hand to hand combat tactics with each other. Every single one of them went through basic, which imparted martial training and knowledge, but only on a one-on-one basis. But reality wasn’t like that. Perhaps they would have to deal with larger groups, or stronger individuals. Either way, they all needed to learn how to better handle these kinds of fights. “Even if this is a great big waste of time (and I hope it isn’t),” said Eva, “what the hell else are we gonna do?” Eva had proposed that they do uneven group skirmishing - each of the groups of
Ravens of Eternity Light Warmup
The two off duty guards loomed over Eva as they processed her words. They had their translators reconfirm her meaning, then glanced at each other in complete puzzlement.To them, she was just some frail human girl. In fact, they viewed all humans as rather frail. The fact that the two of them tied in a brawl against seven humans was more than proof of it. If they fought her, it would have been a complete massacre.The one that barreled through three people stepped forward and puffed up his chest a little. A hint of annoyance was laced throughout his voice.“Imagine just what that report would look like to our superior - two of us against one of you. We would be flayed alive for doing such a thing.”“Oh, so you’re afraid to hurt me, then?”
