Sneak Peek:
This is a tiny raw snippet from Wandering Engineer 6 Pirates Bane:
“Admiral...” Phoenix said over the channel, noting an odd return on the lidar.
“Not now. I'm busy,” Irons growled. “What ever it is, it can wait,” he growled, pulling on the hinge.
“I'm afraid not admiral,” Phoenix began, sending out a pulse. There was no return. The AI thought about it for a microsecond and then sent a rapid fire series of pulses, these aimed at the local moon. The intent was to ricochet them, to get the pulse to bounce off the moon to the odd object to get a scattered return. When the AI got the return a half second later he acted.
Sprite got the data stream from Phoenix as Irons kept working doggedly on the hinge. He felt his arm morph and his suit kick as he turned. “What the hell?”
“Defender, get the admiral inside now,” Sprite said, dropping her voice into a cool soprano of command. “Phoenix, time?”
“Under five minutes,” the AI replied. “I can't get a solid number. Whatever is coming it's good.”
“Someone want to tell me what the hell's going on?” Irons snarled, fighting the AI for control of his suit. “Commander!”
“Get inside now Admiral. Incoming!” Sprite said.
“Shit, now you tell me,” John snarled, no longer fighting the AI. “Meteor?”
“No!”
“Sprite...”
“No time Admiral! Phoenix roll ship ten degrees. Brace for impact!”
“If it hits, I don't think it will. Rolling ship now,” Phoenix replied.
“What is it?” The admiral asked, looking up over the hull. He could see something now, something black and not running any running lights. She was briefly silhouetted against the gas giant beyond.
“Ship. Some sort of ship or other object. It's under stealth. Cancel that, stealth is dropping! It's a...”
You'll have to wait for the rest. Hopefully I can get back to writing it so you can see it by Spring of 2014!
