A raspy voice declared the fate of Hibern...
"G.F. Forces must be kept in orbit around Hibern until the sanitary ships arrive. Immediate sensitization by means of concentrated annihilator beam technology will be in effect until all life is destroyed."
An Aurora Unit spoke to a mass of troops...
"Samus has located the renegade ship. She has indicated that the ship has hosted with a larger vessel roughly three times as large as our Olympus class. A scanned image has been transmitted... Design suggests a Hibernian descent. All other information is unknown."
The raspy voice continued....
"Orders have arrived my friends. The G.F. Ships Tabula I and II will escort nearly five hundred soldiers and engineers to the unknown ship in attempt to confiscate. Destruction of the ship and it's contents is strictly prohibited. Engineers will try to disable the vassal's drive. Soldiers will defend the engineers and carefully subdue suspects via ice beam technology. Permission has been granted for the two ships to leave immediately while the blockade is maintained."
Samus walked through a worn metal hall.
"Log three since the breakout on Hibern. I have docked with the renegade ship now known to be a Hibernian tanker. Scans detect Devourers are being held in 20,000 gallon fuel cells which contain Hibern-five. Scans also detect no life in the control room leaving me to believe the ship is being manned by computer. There is a small indication that there is a lone life-form roaming the ship.
I have prepared the ice beam and began to hunt."
A low Hibernian voice reported to someone...
"Samus hunts me restlessly. There is an obvious fear in the way she patrols through the halls... I will lure her back into the fuel chambers and release devourers." There was no reply.
