Omicron's Eternal saga (// The Order| story)

[Vitoniz30]

Ask any Order agent about salvation experience with junkers, and they won't reply. Because nobody can remember similar kinds of work, and no one Junker will tell about sneaking through Alaska - a system under complete liberty law forces control. Before the First Nomad War Alaska was considered as myth - only limited LSF officer's number had access inside Zone-21 and Alaska itself. But 27 years later Alaska already has access from multiple spots, remotely located from LSF main stations and shipyards.
A week ago the Order asked Voltaic junkers for aid when patrol has found an abandoned large station, signed as Hackert Station. Not only station attracted Order agent's attention, but a large transport inside scrap blockage and they aren't been able to extract a vessel or, at least, safely breach station's hull.
Kyle Vaughn - a person responsible for wreckage salvation mission in Omicron Minor, was sure we suggest him a kind of "suicidal" mission, he was very doubtful in our success, but also understood we never would invite him without a valid reason.
And now, here it comes.

The Order group arrived to the Tarancon Base

Rat: "Engines...working! Some nibbling here...leakage there...ergh. One question. Is my transponder working right?"
Markus Wayne: "Greetings, Junkers, Order transport online. Can you hear us?"
Rat: "Perfect! Yeah I can hear ya. CSV's welder is kind of broken so it will always spin - minus while cruising. But eh. That only means it'll always be ready!"
Markus: "Alright, Jonathan, confirm status. All clear around to begin a trip?"
Jonathan.Williams: "Long-range scanners detect nothing unusual. We are ready to go."
Markus: "Listen up. We are going to the Alaska system, well-known as completely controlled by Liberty law forces. We need to finish our task as quickly as possible"

After short talking, we've started to move out. Alaska jump hole is located far away from the regular Order patrol routes and looked like a small unstable anomaly - decently stable for snubcraft and small transporters like CSV or our Voyager, but larger ships crew will hear nothing but "Dock denied" from Neural Net that marked jumphole as unable to use.
Fortunately, we didn't meet any Nomad or Core ship on our way to jumphole and jumped through with success. Lucky was on our side - no hostile patrols on the other side.

Rat: "Someone should cover a 17km distance away from the Derelict! Probably on the direct route from the Alaska Jump Gate to it."
Jonathan: "Damn rocks. They're too many."

We flew through the endless dense grey-green cloud with sharp ice crystals for a really long time and Junker noticed something - it was looked like regular Ageira Jump Gates, but they were much more massive than usual.

Rat: "Woah! What is that?!"
Jonathan: "That's huge. Similar to one in Poole. I thought they've stopped this project. Looks like they're not."
Markus: "It seems, Ageira is trying to build another kind of jumpgates"
Rat: "But where to? Wait. Isn't it aimed at Omicron Minor's direction?"
Jonathan: "Space is not so flat. It can be directed anywhere."
Markus: "I don't know. Let's hope, they aren't in an attempt to invade Omicrons...for their sakes"

Super Gate in Alaska

---

In an hour after "little" surprise, we finally reached our waypoint - Hackert Station magnificently watched us and our moves. I can't remember how long it took, but we managed to tractor about a dozen large containers that are hard to analyze. Every collected data along with entry logs I will save right here. Not only canned turrets have been inside transport's cargo, but a container with parts I never have seen before.

Markus: "Look at this huge station"
Rat: "Worse than I thought. Impact related damage. Probably mortars. Kinetic shells?"
Markus: "Try to breach that scrap, we're interested in that transporter inside"
Rat: "Not only one. There are some weird signatures. The Scrap's too thick though."

Attempt to breach station's husk

---

Returning to Omicron Mu was without surprises and LSF didn't spot our presence in Alaska. And this was really weird to realize, how it was even possible. Anyway, I informed Mafdet about our success and got an order to go to the Alexandria Research station, where scientists will research our find.

Order transporter arrived to Alexandria with valuable cargo

Salvaged items

Prototype Weapon 1
Prototype Weapon 2
Prototype Weapon 3

Markus Entry Log

Early scans reveal no consistent information about these objects and I can't really say, what exactly we found, but energy signatures are strong even under hermetic containers. The total amount of salvaged containers with them - 10 units and would be better to transport them to the Order Science Division or Genesis Research Group for details.
