chapter 2- the awakening
"10000CE?"
Dux asked Jacob.
"Yes, Now what is your name?" Jacob
replied.
"How do I know you are not an ERA member?" Dux
asked
"ERA? I thought they were all wiped out During the
grand civil war of 9783CE?" Jacob replied.
Dux thought of the
predicament he was in at the moment, he was in an unknown ship, in an
unknown location, and in a year beyond his time. He thought over his
next action.
"My name is Dux" He said
"Dux?
The Dux, The one that we based are values on and then disappeared at
Trellum, Everybody was killed in that, except you I guess. We found
you floating around Cetus. It was on an asteroid to be exact. Now, I
know why there was a lot of quad material, It was inside of
Trellum."
"Look," Dux said" the only thing I
remember is a white light than I woke up in here, can you please tell
me what has happened so far?"
Jacob repiled "Well a lot
things have happened since you disappeared, The ERA fell When its
members were told of the things there higher-ups committed, Than a
couple of Planets tried to Bring back the crudity that SIR brought,
But fell when its leaders became corrupt. Than a couple of years ago
Trellum was destroyed when Black Reclaw set off a Quad bomb, and
that's pretty much what has happened."
"Now what's
going to happen? Why am I here?" Dux asked.
" well it
looks like you were incased in Quad material which persevered you."
Jacob said.
"any idea for what i should do now?" Dux
asked
" Well you can always start at the bottom, There
acouple of old ships in The stardock at cetus." Jacob said.
"Well, what kind of ships are they?" Dux asked.
"Old
Warships, the ships have names, one say's BS Galactica and another
says Hanging Glory, The ships belong to Cpt. Kendan Tarr and Cpt.
Runt. There are also a few Cryogenic pods on board both of them with
things in them, I suggest take a look."
" Did you just say
"BS Galactica" and the "Hanging glory"?" Dux
asked Jacob
"Yes" replied Jacob
"How much for
both?" asked Dux
"Normally 1 billion, But because you
were just found in space, 500Million" jacob replied.
"
any idea where I can get a loan?" dux asked
"well you
can always join a faction that is currntly looking for recruits, If
they found out who you are they'll give you a loan as soon as you
walk in the door, and you can always just ask a government for one."
Jacob replied.
"Any idea what faction is currently looking
for members?" Dux asked.
"The Roid mining guild is looking;
maybe you should go check them out," Said Jacob.
"Ok, I'll
go there, Just one more question. What happened to captain Kendan
Tarr? Last time I checked he was in hiding," asked Dux.
"
after you disapeared, Kendan tarr was waging a losing war with the
ERA, Acouple of days before the Civil war, The ERA found kendan tarr
hide-out from a informat. He was killed shortly after." Jacob
said.
"Ok, that explains a lot, Thank you, Bye."
Dux Ran
to his new ship, a light miner. It was a piece of C RAP. He got into
the ship and there was his faithful crew that he have forced of the
ship all those years ago.
"How did you guys get here? I thought
you were all dead." Dux exclaimed with joy.
"We survived
because of Cryogenics and the help of Kendan Tarr. So are we leaving
or what, we still have your old bank account and it's building up
interest, some 10billion Credits and 10000 Points. You could start a
new faction with that," Said his right hand man.
" Since I
have that kind of money, Can you guys tell me what kind of ship that
we should buy?" Dux asked his right- hand man. "well you
could always get a ancient Command ship." said his right-hand
man. "I got a better idea" Dux said "Computer send a
communications link to Jacob of the" phantom" Dux told his
computer.
"Dux what is it?" Jacob said.
"Are
you still selling those ships?" Dux replied.
"Yes, just
give us $500,000,000 and 600 points," Jacob said.
"Everything
is on the way, nice doing business with you."
"My Pleasure.
One thing, Check the hidden hold of the hanging glory, It has a
cryotube with a living being."
"Ok, I will," Said Dux.
