Forsaken

[Implosion]

Hackett tipped the bartender and left the bar, with Lea in tow. They boarded their respective ships and headed for the Illustrious.
It was the complete opposite of Barbados. Barebones hangars, made to be functional. Surprisingly, the numbers of alert fighters was awfully low. Only two fighters and two bombers were docked on the Overlord. As they traversed the tight corridors, it became apparent as to why that was the case. The Illustrious was outfitted with military grade cloaking field emitters and a a fully functional jump drive. Albeit, it wasn't top notch. Far from it. The jump drive itself was one of the first even prototypes built. It was highly inefficient and wildly inaccurate.

"Some beast, eh?" -Proudly said Hackett. -"This bad boy has thus far been through two major conflicts and numerous engagements. Thus far, we've managed to..."

Hackett was interrupted by the intercom.

"All personnel, prepare for departure, repeat, we are mobile. Destination: Cortez star system. ETA is three hours."

Hackett, with Lea still following him, smiled and said.

"Let's go to the bridge. I believe you'll enjoy the view."

A couple of minutes later, the duo was already at the bridge. It was strangely deserted, much like the hangar. Only a handful of crewmen were present, far less than what is usually normal for a warship of this size. Despite this, the ship was moving at a steady pace towards the nearby asteroid field.
