Heverice was empty. A lone astrotumbleweed drifted past the bow of my Thorax as an uncalled for amount of crumbs cascaded down the front of my shirt with every bite of the incredibly dry granola bar I was eating.
"A TARGET!" I shouted as a barrage of granola bits pelted my console.
That tape was still stuck in the deck and would not eject.
I landed about 30k off the Fleet Stabber, locked target, and went to work. As soon as I saw local spike a large granola bit lodged itself in my throat causing me to choke. I fell forwards onto the acceleration lever clutching my throat. Luckily Lilly was near by to assist me as the ship powered up to full speed headed in a strait line.
The Stabber being an incredibly fast ship kept pace as it tried to keep point. Suddenly his gang landed but they were over 80k away.
My eyes were still watery but my windpipe was now clear and I was able to resume command of the ship just as the Stabber tried to run. He ran alright but only after his pod ejected from his exploding ship.
So in the end I managed to almost pod myself with a granola bar, kill a Fleet Stabber, and witness a terrible trap unfold. I even got the loot! Yay!
I think you're cheating. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteIf overheating and owning a former Minmatar mad scientists Thorax is cheating then sure! I'm completely guilty :P
ReplyDeleteOh my god.. Where the hell did you find that pic?? I seriously couldn't concentrate on the story after seeing it... And I'm NOT easily distracted...
