I let out an angry yell and the Havik’s ion and distortion cannons light up the front shields of the big Constellation. The weapon impacts produce a shimmering rain-drop like pattern as the energy is dissipated.



The Hooded Cobra immediately returns fire. Plasma bolts spray out of the big ship’s turrets and send a blue shimmer across our frontal shields, all but collapsing them. I’m pressed hard into my seat as Rekks red lines the power of the ventral maneuvering thrusters. Our Cutlass pounces over the top of the larger Constellation while the main thrusters kick in rapidly accelerating the Havik away from the danger.



I try desperately to swivel the turret around and put more fire into the Cobra but Rekks’ jinking maneuvers have taken away my firing arc. Green streaks of plasma continue to rain from behind although they are having a hard time scoring hits now. Captain Grata doesn’t appear to be pursuing.



I trigger wide spectrum broadcast to the incoming Hornet patrol craft. “UEE patrol craft, we have been fired upon by a Constellation under command of known slaver Kel Grata. Please assist!”
