Council of the Corsair Elders

[Zelot]

Miguel had tired from the discussions going on in the Council, so he decided to take out his Eagle for a quick circle around Crete's orbit. The blackness of space always helped clear Miguels mind. He thought today would be much the same, until he reached orbit. There, sitting outside the docking ring was a single Titan, whose IFF had to be some kind of mistake. The Titan was broadcasting the name [+]Maniaco, it had to be come kind of hallucination Miguel thought to himself, while throttling up his ship, he felt like he was chasing a ghost. Finally, Miguel opened his comm "Pedro?....is that you??" a moment later a familiar voice broke the static. "Miguel, it is me..." Miguels mind sputtered at the thought, how could this be, Pedro had died when the Altaneria had gone down in Sigma 13, as the Brotherhood was retreating from Rheinland space. This couldn't be, Miguel was thinking to himself, before he had a chance to take the conversation any further, Pedro's ship made a move for the docking ring, and disappeared, as quickly as he had appeared. Miguel's mind kept going back to thought that he was chasing a ghost. Miguel set a course for the docking ring, and the Council chamber hanger beyond that, it was time to report this to the rest of the Council.



Setting his Eagle down, Miguel, jumped out and ran for the Chambers, throwing open the doors and looking at Green Hawk and the Junker, he said "Gentlemen, I thank you for coming here and making yourself available for the Councils questions. Green Hawk, return to Yangi, and we shall inform you of any decision we come to. Senor Tinkerbell, the Council thanks you for your time. Now I must ask you Gentlemen to leave....immediatly." With that two guards emerged to escort Green Hawk and Tinkerbell out of the Chambers, when they were gone Miguel looked around at his fellow Elders, confusion at this abrupt action was evident on their faces.



"Hermano's..... Pedro Maniaco is alive.....and he has returned to us."
