Who:- Amber, zodar, Ray, Niples, senior staff.
Where:- Conference Room
Who:- Jay
Where:- Outside
Zodar stood before Captain Niples, White Wolf and Allie Fletcher and
talked through the spec's of the Space Eagle 2.
"Type 7 plasma engine, top speed of....well fast.....ablative hull
plating, class 3 deflector sheild"
"Sounds to me like you've completley redesigned the original Space
Eagle" the Captain enquired, "I thought Jay was just going to
rebuiild it"
"Well that was the plan, but..." Zodar said
"That punk had trashed it" Ray added, "He'ed crashed it so badly,
half the parts were trashed, no way it was gonna fly again, he had to
redesign it to get away without using half the components."
"Well, yes technically thats true" zodar added, "but the new design
is greatly improved, ts faster, more manouverable, and stronger, much
much stronger, its weapons capability has been increased five fold,
dual laser cannons, hunter-killer missiles, gatling guns, gausiian
shot guns, we havent installed Phil's missile yet though, Jay was a
bit, wary.."
"Where is Lt. Cmdr Chrysler anyway Crewman?" asked Allie.
"He thought you'd appreciate a demonstration!" Amber said, pointing
out of the window,
The light form the nearby star reflected off the smooth green
paintwork of the amll fighter that slowly rose over the perimiter of
the Conference Room's viewport., The same basic shape remianed, but
was now longer, the cockpit extended away from the main hull, two
immense intake vents ran along either side, and across the enitre
fron of the ship, from wingtip to wing tip was the biggest variety of
weapons anyone had seen outside of Los Angeles.
The ship spun on the spot and flew off into the distance, into a
small area of space used for dumping old worn out ships,
the sky was lit up with fire, and as the glare died down, the Eagle
flew out from where seconds ago there had been a derelict warship.
Jay's voice came over the comm.
"Ok, so it was derlict, no challenge and half rust, and the ship wont
normally be THIS heavily armed, I've just made it a bit more
aggressive for the whole Plebe situation, but you get the idea!"
"Well done Mr. Chrysler." said Niples.
"Anytime, now, if you'll excuse me...I have a private project to
finish"
