Forsaken

[Whesto]

"This is Knight Dwanian from war vessel Voidmourn, affirmitive Perditrix. Coordinates received, we are jumping to Nu shortly."

Whesto commanded battlestations on the bridge and ordered the boarding group of marines to get ready. The Voidmourn went through the green haze of Omicron Minor with a wing of fighter vessels. The crew was quiet in anticipation and focus. They jumped to Omicron Nu. Whesto left his seat and told his substitute to handle the ship.

"Bring us to the coordinates and group with the Perditrix, do it quietly. I'll handle the comms until further notice."

He then went to the door to the bridge and picked up his combat helmet under his arm, linked up the comms and joined the marines at the back, looking at the live navmap and scanners on a handheld device. Battle rage started to fill his veins but he used it to stay determined and focused.

The Perditrix appeared on the scanners and the Voidmourn was on course. In a couple of minutes they would be in formation. Awaiting further orders. Whesto and the marines looked at each other, not a word was said, but their looks were also determined.

"Helmets on!"
