Ship ID: Anaconda CANONNShip Name: CRV Audacious
CMDR Rafe Raedwulf
Location: Ushornt HO-B c13-0
I don't know what just happened. I'm trying to remain calm despite my heart beating out of my chest. The last thing I remember was plotting a jump course from... somewhere. I can't even remember the name now without looking it up in the logs! Wregoe TN-M C22-1. I was plotting a jump. But it wasn't this system, Ushornt HO-B c13-0. Something happened between then and now but I can't remember any of it! The only indication I had that something was off was the date. At first I thought it might be that same glitch in the Anaconda's firmware but even after shutting the ship down and putting it in diagnostic mode, all of the core files verified that the system is intact and operating correctly.
Six months. Gone. I have no memories and no logs from that time.
Was I abducted? Did I enter some sort of singularity inside witch space? I don't feel any different. The ship doesn't seem to be damaged or altered.
No, wait. Something is different.
When I was verifying the Anaconda's firmware it came back clean and error-free. It's never done that before. There's always been that nagging bug in the system from the day I bought it which would show up as a specific error string. It's not showing up now.
I also just noticed a new scar on my left index finger. Or perhaps scab is more accurate. Right in the middle of the segment it looks as if I got cut by something incredibly sharp at a shallow angle. I have no memory of receiving that injury and it definitely wasn't there before.
If it wasn't hard enough to fall asleep in zero-g while surrounded by empty vacuum before, now it is going to be even more difficult. The ship feels strange and foreign to me, almost as if it is hiding some sinister evil I can't see.
...
Alright, now I am incredibly upset. The control configurations for the ship have changed. Buttons on the console aren't doing what I expect them to do. I just attempted to put the ship in low-power mode so I could go to sleep and about vented the entire cabin of oxygen!
What is going on?!?
