The 13th Jump
01 Aug 2021Maecsen
Sitting at the bar in Jaques Station, Colonia, thinking....worrying... I have always hated not being on board during Carrier Jumps, just in case something went wrong, comms delay is already bad enough with the delay 6400 lights years away, Captain Boyle always sends me the report after each jump, I knew they were departing the Stuelou AT-J c25-24 system early this morning, system with little of note, except maybe for the Penal Ship Omicron in the system. 13 jumps to Colonia.. 12 reports from Captain Boyle.. then...nothing. It's been 5 hours passed their ETA to Colonia, missjump ? the Rhea never had a missjump since I've owned her. Escaped prisoner from Omicron ? Doubt it. CMDR Ringers is in charge of Security, I don't think anything could slip past him. No, something else happened, not sure.. what is strange is no Comms at all from them and no reply to my 3 messages.
Well, if by 1200 hours I still have no answer, I'll head out towards the Kashyapa system, their flight plan didn't even pass by there, but I have to start somewhere and the Prometheus took a pretty hard beating from the trip here, so I will need somewhere to resupply and I just might know someone at Vihara gate that just might know something, if he'll even talk to me.
Update pending....
