Project Protection

[JunkerTown]

As Johnny heads out of the room an alert sounds.
A operator says out loud..
Emergency communication from Marcus coming through sir!

James responds..
Put it on screen.

Sir I am in pursuit of one Nomad contact.

What is it? Another morph??

No sir. Scanners show it as a Sascya Assassin class fighter

Damnit their getting bigger..

We are currently ten clicks behind it.. It is closing in on Puerto Rico.

Marcus stop it.. Do not let enter!

Moving to intercept sir.. its moving fast.

A few seconds later an alert sounds and an operator reports..
CONTACT!! Intruder detected in PR.. its the Nomad sir!

Sonofa.. Put it on screen now!



James steps back as his mind races...

Fruckin Hell its headed into the rift!

He yells out..
ALL UNITS ENGAGE THAT NOMAD.. SHUT IT DOWN!!

James checks the targets coordinates..

It is close to SJ.. TOO CLOSE!

Sir we are firing on the Nomad. Its evading and very hard to hit.

Sir the target appears to be changing course and now headed back to the Texas jump hole.

All units continue pursuit!

Sir its jumped back into Texas. Marcus and the other Congress still following.

Marcus do you still see the target?

Aye sir its out of range and fleeing fast.

James hangs his head and says..
DAMN! All units fall back to Rico.

He looks back up at the operator..
Make sure they return to defense platform construction.

Aye sir.. all units stand down I repeat stand down! Return home and begin defense builds.

James walks off the command deck
As the door closes he pauses..

C'mon Finn.. hurry up.
