Easy Delivery

Ethan Hudson, a male in his thirties, an ordinary clerk working in company "Deliveries Everywhere!". That's just another day in his life on the planet Manhattan when nothing special was expected. He was slightly concerned about the news he heard around. Massive battle actions coming to Texas, Liberty Navy massive ship relocations? Could it be another war? Thank you very much, we would gladly prefer the ordinary day of work and life, than dying with thousands of people in flames and bullets.

After parking his motorbike at the company office, he entered the lift together with another colleague. One of the main business planners in the company. An attractive, but too strict to Ethan taste. Turning from her sensor tablet, she noticed her companion for the ride.

- "Hello! How was your name is, Ethan?"
- "Yes, mam."
- "We have an urgent delivery, just came up recently. Nothing serious, we need you just to deliver small box, that could fit in your pocket to Planet Texas. Take the star tracker in hangar 3, it should be enough for your work. Hurry up, the client should not be waiting for you."

What was definitely Ethan liking in his work, that's flights in space. He often wished to disable auto control for his ship and to start making dashing maneuvers, imagining other ships around him flying in crazy trajectories. Alas, that was just dreams. Company trackers in the ship would immediately detect if the ship would leave his designated course. The flight was smooth as well as his landing to planet Texas. Surprisingly this old ship model was still performing well, even if it's already time for utilization. But that would be not an efficient waste of resources, probably the ship would be removed only when some unfortunate pilot would die with it.

After the landing, he started to look around the spaceport. He was told that he would be met by someone here. All he was able to find some gypsy, which was even coming to his way. Intuition screaming loudly for the courtier forced him quickly to hop on the closest ride. He definitely was not willing to wake up after being made asleep by clonidine or not waking up at all.

Having lost a quick chance of getting information where he should make his delivery. He brainstormed for a minute. An idea sparkled in his head. Swiftly looking around he made his way across streets until suited his needs building was found. Info agency "Accurafind". The robot inside provided him the information for a fee, where his client works, professor Maxwell Lawe.

Taking Taxi Ethan arrived at the professor's office. Finally, his job would be finished. It already takes much longer than he expected, just to give the small box and getting a signature about the delivery being done. Coming on the right floor he wished to knock the door but noticed it is slightly opened. He did not know why, but he opened it silently as he can while looking around for any signs anything around. The sight opened was horrific, everything was in disarray, with blood, left body parts and bones being the only left from someone who was here before. Was it the professor?

Fearing he looked around for anything that could be used for his defense. He was able to find only a fire extinguisher. Taking that, as something is better than nothing, he tried as silently as he came to get out of here as soon as possible. The sounds of 'clacks' coming from the other side of the room chilled his blood and made adrenaline all over his body ejected at once. He was able to turn the fire extinguisher to whatever it was, seeing a monster coming right at him. A white spray designated to block any air access for the fire was launched at a monster blocking his eyes, giving him a small-time while it tried to restore its sight back.

Running with the maximum speed of the office, he was caught by a group of military people, all in high-grade armor and weaponry surrounding the building. With just looking at my face and eyes, he understood me already seeing what they were searching as well. Being finally safe, I should have run away and never returning back, but something was holding me back. The guys were keeping targeting the building.

When the glasses on one of the floors became shattered as something jumped out of the building and started to get away by the roofs of the building. The commander of the group called by radio support, which made verti-bird to arrive. They got on board when unexpectedly their commander offered me a hand to get with them as well. I went probably mad or something changed inside me, as I took the hand and joined then onboard.

They placed me on one of vertibird controls to fire auto-turret manually. Apparently electronics were working not so ideal at always changing altitude and wind speeds disrupted autotargeting system. The chase was intense, missiles were used with multiple miniguns tracing monster movements. The joint effort of all team crippled the monster enough for it being hit by a direct missile. Exploding the remains in all directions.

Slightly impressed by me taking it all through the offered to come through training joining their ranks permanently to work with their team in cleaning anomalies through Sirius. They have battlecruiser equipped up to date with high-grade weaponry to deal with most problems. Is this madness? Yes.
