In the year 2700, Alicia and her crew are sent in search of a rebel planet. Alicia will soon find more than she bargained for and it's not the rebels... Chpt4: Alicia is held captive and a survivor from the crash seeks out help and finds some!

1. Introduction

I sat there wondering for a long time.

I wondered what exactly we would find.

What are we up against?

The human race had acquired the knowledge to harness speedy travelling in space. We could bend space and create a portal that would take us to exact co-ordinates or the more risky random jumps. A trip that would take hundreds of years through normal space could be turned into a trip of only several hours. Our human's race had advanced technologically over the past few hundred years. Now being 2700, we inhabit four different planets: our beloved Earth, resource enriched planet of Patraz, the earth duplicate Kinos and the dark planet of Sen.

The big kahunas of our society want more discoveries and so that brings you to me. I'm Alicia Armstrong, call me Alli. I'm a twenty six year old captain of a thirty year old space ship. Why my crew, my ship and I were chosen for an expedition to find and locate some rebel planet in the Tsua system is beyond me. Maybe because we're expendable in their eyes I don't know, but they fitted us with missiles, a fast new engine, good old laser shooters, and the device they call Dante-Scythe, that's the thing that creates our super siffy portals. I was informed many rebels are out there so I was to be careful and report any rebel activities.

I really hope all that equipment can save our arse when trouble farts on my ship.
