The Solenya was approaching the far side of Akiton its destination was the space port of Lyceum, the closest safe landing spot to Gate’s Pass. The communication from one of the Solenya’s most reliable patrons, Baxter, was still displayed on a computer screen.

:: Crew of Solenya::

:: Offshoot of Radiant Imperium is approaching city of Gate’s Pass on Akiton::

:: Pact Worlds not willing to respond as Akiton has no formal government requesting aid::

:: At current pace Radiant Imperium will have city surrounded in two days::

:: Assignment is to travel to Gate’s Pass and extract Torrent, a former cultist of the Devourer, and bring him to my office on Absalom Station. Torrent has valuable information on the Cult of the Devourer. ::

:: Payment of $5,000 total credits for the data files relating to the Cult of the Devourer that Torrent is in possession of. Additonal $2,500 credit bonus if you bring back Torrent alive and able to talk::

Crash reads the info on the screen once, twice, the light of the monitor giving his features a bluish hue. The slender young man has his mirrored shades on top of his head, splitting his unkempt black hair almost as if he were wearing an oversized tiara. A suit of Second Skin can be seen peaking from underneath his sturdy flight suit as he reaches out with his hand to push a button to his left, sitting comfortably in his pilot's chair.

"Five thousand for the data, two and a half for the guy," he speaks softly. "And two days to finish the job. Sounds like a walk in the park."

He looks up from the screen and over his shoulder at the rest of the crew.

"Shall I take us in?"

Terra sits in front of her locker contemplating the unusual set of circumstances that put her on this crew. Shaking her head at it all she focuses on the mission and just being glad that after a long lull and absence of work, they finally get a mission that got them moving, however the realization that she might actually have to hurt people bites at the back of her conscience. Sure, it was highly likely the people she'd be hurting were bad, but in the grand scheme of things, it was still blood on her hands. "Maybe if it was in the defense of other it will be easier..." she thinks.

She clenches the barrel of her sniper rifle tightly at the thoughts of the damage she did with similar weapons in the past. Mild turbulence broke those thoughts as they approached the landing zone. She stands and begins making her way toward the cockpit, her hair shifts from blue to black, she was ready.

Elyea Tandela started to pack away the items in her medkit. She had spread them out on one of the beds in the back to do inventory and make sure she had everything. Once the kit was packed again to her satisfaction, she pulled on the last pieces of her Freebooter armor. She was still getting used to wearing armor, but in this line of work, it was a necessity.

Tucking her medical kit into her backpack, she walked back up front to join the others, pushing back a lock of light brown hair from her exotic brown eyes. This was a far cry from working in the finest hospitals in the Pact Worlds. But that life was behind her now, and she had to make a living somehow. Now that was as an illegal sawbones on a junk freighter taking odd jobs to meet its fuel requirements.

Coming up behind Terra, Elyea put a hand on the android’s shoulder. So odd. So much like the sentient humanoids Elyea was used to working with, it was hard to remember this young woman was actually a robot.

“You okay, luv?” Elyea asked. She studied the short mission briefing again. Seemed simple, and Elyea hoped it would be. Just in case, Elyea toyed with the small bag of self-sealing stem bolts she carried at her hip.

"No, don't take us in," says Echo, her voice crackling slightly on the intercom. "Lets stay in orbit. Except no because of COURSE take us in! And while we're at it, maybe we should have a plan?"

"I mean, I'm going to be searching public records for Torrent, and then move onto LESS public records, but the rest of you might want to pull some weight too."

Thateous · Oct 26, 2017

Terra nodded at Elyea's question as Echo made a quip over the intercom. "Figure out what Torrent looks like and it should be easy to split up and locate them. Call and wait for backup before moving in to acquire the objective. Rendezvous back at the ship for extraction." she thought.

JustinCase · Oct 26, 2017

Crash chuckled.

"To think some say androids don't have a sense of humor," he replies over the intercom as he punches a few buttons in front of him before grabbing the stick to fly manually. The thrill of being completely in control of the ship never grew old.

"Find out where our target is, because we're almost there."

OOC:

I take it Terra did not say that out loud?

KahlessNestor · Oct 26, 2017

“Of course, because it would be too easy for them to have included a picture of him and where we were to meet him for extraction. Does he know we’re coming?” Elyea asked. She settled at the science terminal to see what she could find in the records, as well.

A voice came through the communication system, “This is Lyceum ground control, reaching out to approaching ship, please state your ships registered name and business in the Lyceum space port.”

The computer came to life before Elyea, as Elyea searched the planetary databases for information on Torrent.

A quick check of the hotel and inn registries showed that Torrent had checked into the Hangry Goat Hotel, two nights ago he is still listed as a registered guest.

Reviewing the Gate’s Pass security information shows that it is currently a closed city. No weapons are being allowed inside at the time.

A photo of Torrent as he went through the Gate’s Pass security check point upon entering the city is found.

[sblock=AC 15 Computer Check]
Torrent has been flagged by the Gate’s Pass security forces. He is not allowed to leave the city.

"Ground control, this is Solenya," Crash answered the call. He looks over his shoulder quickly as if asking for approval.

"We just want to trade some of our cargo, perhaps visit some friends, and get refuelled before moving on to Absalom Station."

Hopefully his discription of their business did not draw unwanted attention.

OOC:

Don't know if it's necessary, but here's a Bluff check just in case: [roll0]
