Fallen Grace

[Soul Reaper]

"First Recon status?"
"Commander Orbit confirmed arrival at point Alpha, the Olympia has jumped in and will be relaying secure jump coordinates momentarily. Rubicon has her FTL drive spinning and awaiting coordinates."

The Admiral leaned on the brass railing circling the upper steps of the bridge where his command seat was placed in, letting out a sigh. He hadn't been sure of Randy's mental state, no matter how hardcore military he might've been and how well he hid it, the man was still shaken from the incident before with the Nomads in 117. But Randy was his best man for any situation, his training and experience gave a wide berth of operation selections but more important the Admiral trusted him above all others. He was the only man he had that would be able to pull it off. The Admiral's brief talk with Raven was enough to convince him to mobilize a great deal of Vanguard resources under his command. The operative would be a near-impossible one yet the rewards would have no substitute. He couldn't risk not putting his best people and assets on the job.

"Sir, Rubicon actual has confirmed coordinate transfer from the Olympia, they're awaiting your orders."
"Commence operation Fallen Grace, Rubicon is cleared to jump."

Randy smiled, still in his cockpit as the Olympia confirmed that the Admiral had given the green on the operation codenamed Fallen Grace and the Rubicon had jumped in system. He was connected to Dawn's mainframe aboard the Rubicon through the Olympia. Randy simply transmitted general coordinates to the Olympia while passing through a system, which then jumped in and found secure coordinates for the Rubicon to jump in silently for electronic recon and to utilize logistic support for any Vanguard units. Randy clicked his comm system off, and climbed out of his cockpit, he saw two technicians headed his way with the relative equipment required for ship maintenance. His Gallic was good(due to no small part his months of time spent in coordinated operations with the Council), good enough that the technicians almost mistook him for a Gallic citizen when he told them that their aid wasn't required. He always took care of his ships himself.

The small asteroid base was almost identical to others of its kind, a simple chunk of asteroid holed in to have a dock built in it. He disregarded any thoughts of the base expect the fact that they were well stocked for snub maintenance. The equipment was of course not really made for Sirian inship systems but he had already modified such Gallic equipment before countless times.

"Some operation..."

Randy wasted a few seconds pondering if they could actually pull it off, then thought better of it and went to work on his Nyx.
