  Sneak Peek:

  The following is a raw excerpt from Pirate Rage:

  Five weeks after they were given the go order, the North Hampton class light cruisers Mikhail Kutuzov and Wanda Lu jumped into the Destria star system 1 light minute short of the the normal jump zone. They probed the star system carefully with passive sensors and recon drones before they switched to active sensors and moved in deeper. “There aren't any ships in orbit. CIC is picking up satellites however,” the sensor officer reported.

  “Understood. Guns, I want recon probes sent out in every direction. I don't want to get caught with our pants down around our ankles like Firefly did,” captain Casper Boo intoned. The lieutenant commander was a pure white Neocat with pale blue eyes and an unenviable name. He made up for it by doing his job to the best of his ability. He had Lieutenant Commander Maggie Courtland by date of rank despite the fact that the two of them had graduated in the same class. He had a shade more experience in the hot seat than she did and liked to rib her about it.

  The one limited good thing that had happened after Firefly had stepped on it's sword was that the poor showing had been a wake up call to the rest of the military. The gory example of overconfidence made them all think twice and look twice at unknown star systems before they moved in closer. Suspicion and caution was now ingrained into their psyche all over again. No one wanted to fall into the same trap, not if they could help it.

  “No sir. Definitely not. Recon shell launch in five sir. We'll need to coordinate with Wanda Lu to get it right.”

  “Then do so,” the captain ordered.

  ---<>))))

  As they moved cautiously through the star system over the course of several days their recon shell reported no sign of enemy ships. There was also no ion trails except old ones in and out.

  “They've got a dozen satellites in orbit skipper,” the CIC rating reported when they moved within 5 light minutes of the planet.

  “Can we hit them from this far out Guns?” the captain asked, eying the Relgarth TACO.

  “I believe so,” the reptile hissed, scanning her instruments. First Lieutenant Warm Blood IXL was very good at her job, and like any good tactical officer she was a bit blood thirsty. She also wanted to learn martial arts with the Marines however she had a bad habit of biting, clawing, and savaging an opponent when in unarmed combat training so they'd banned her. Respectively of course.

  “KEW strikes. Hit them from here if you can. Each one you miss means you owe a lap around the ship,” the skipper said. “Fire when ready.”

  “Consider it done,” the Relgarth hissed.

  “Hopefully right,” the helm rating murmured to his partner. That tail of hers can seriously bruise some shins in passing,” he muttered.
