Back in Command

DAY 3 BACK IN THE BUBBLEIt was a strange feeling to be back at the helm of a real ship again. Not that the Kaitakusha wasn’t such, just that commanding a ship out in the loneliness of deep, uninhabited space for years with no crew wasn’t exactly my idea of ‘command.’ Now, with my Krait MkII the Tiberius, I not only had enough firepower to make an outpost rumble, but also a crew that now totalled three, (picked up one other crew member somewhere in Lave). I was back in command. I was in charge of a real ship with real firepower.
The engines purred as the ship lurched out of the station for the first time since outfitting, and with my new crew.
I was ready for whatever this universe could throw at me. I hoped.
