First cruise disruptor shoots out from under the bridge, quickly gaining on the fleeing freighter. "Countermeasures deployed - no effect!" Kertz's face hardens as he keeps staring ahead, firing again - but no telltale cruise disruptor trail to be seen this time. "Failure on launch! Cycling through ammo." "Schneller! They are getting away. Habermeyer, thrusters. Now." "Sir, they are not tested with current config-... " "NOW!" Traudel slams her hand on a switch, both recording device and the three crew present are shaken as inertial dampeners struggle to compensate for a sudden jolt forward. "Dis-...ugh. Disruptor ready again!" Another one fired almost simultaneously to Schneider's announcement. "Hit! Vessel slowing down. We are gaining on them!" "Habermeyer, keep us on their six. Give me all she's got." "Sir, we lowered overall engine output, tha-" "Ja, exactly. More reliable time to chase. Once in range we still need time to dismantle our target. Schneider - i want a good lock on their engines as soon as we are in range." Yet another hornet's trail flashes from under the bridge's viewport right toward the freighter as Traudel stares at her instruments, fidgeting nervously and adjusting propulsion values. "In Reichweite, Herr Kaleun!" Seconds pass before both pulse cannons let loose, quickly followed by a hail of green projectiles rapidly descending upon the Sprotte's target, tearing its aft section apart and leaving it adrift. Cargo mixing with pieces of debris.

"Target immobilized, hull breach. Critical decompression. Energy readings plummeting." "Start picking up their haul. We will not remain out here for long. Habermeyer, i take your station. Go to the cargo hold and see what we got."
