Coming Home...

[Angel]

After Boarding the pearl, In Tau-31, Kristy made her way to the bridge. Noticing all the smiling faces. Indeed it was on everyones mind, that they where finally comeing home to Omicron Alpha, after years deplyoed In the colonies.

Major Brian, her second in command was, over looking some reports when she exited the elevator. " Ahh captain, I hope your Mission to Malta wen't over smoothly? " he smiled as he noted a circled article in the News, Traitor dead, and Prydes return.

" Yes It was just fine, how's the crew doing? " she asked. Looking around at the smiling faces, and the muffled chat about what first thing they where going to do once they landed. " In good spirits ma'am, Though there is one last bit Of bad news to do before we can, Dock, I held the funeral services, for when you got back, I thought It would be best. " he said grimmly. Kristy glently grabed his Arm, " Thanks " she smiled. Then Sat down in the Command Chair.

" Approaching the Omicron Alpha Jumphole now Ma'am. " A young Ensign announced. " We've barely kept her together to get this far, But Im sure she'll get us to Malta " the major Smirked.

Having been in continues battle for the past two years, the Outcast Battleship Black Pearl was way overdue for a Refit and repair, But being In the colonys left little Time to make Repairs, and Most Colonial Pirate groups don't know the workings of a Complicated Battleship like the Pearl.

" Lets go home Major " she smiled. " Yes Ma'am, Seargent Folks, activate Jump engines, and take us through ", with a nod of the head, and an " Aye Sir " he keyed in a series of commands on the Console. The ship lurched forward, and In a flash of brilliant light they where traveling down a cylindar of light.

" E.T.A on jumphole exit is 27.4 mins ma'am " the seargent called, they returned to monitoring the Jump status. " Major, Im going to get ready, as soon as we enter Omicron Alpha we'll begin the Service, I've informed some of the Dons of the service, but Im not sure what they'll do. " He nodded as she left the bridge.

After a half hour, there had been a crowd gathering on the forward observation Dect, just infront of the Cloaking coils. All were wearing brand new, black dress outcast uniforms, that Kristy had designed, she prefured to keep her ship orderly, and systemated, like the millitary.

They had all gathered murmering to themselves. When Krister walked through the doors, along with the rest of the command staff, and her brother john, all where wearing the same Uniforms. Her personal Communicator pipped, " Captain where exiting the Jumphole now, and as she turned to look out the Window, the ship lurched out of jump. And the sight she saw, made her eyes tear up.

Outcast fighters where everywhere, flying in formation, dozens of sabers, cris-crossed the area around the Pearl. " Dona Pryde, we had heard you were conducting Funeral Ceremonys for Pilots that fell during your campaing in the Colonys, Everyone here thought you might like an escorts Coming Home. " she smiled, " I would be happy to accept. "

As the Pearl started its way to Planet Malta, the Sabers fell into formation around her. Escorting the Mighty ship Home. She Turned around to face the gathering, and noticed that everyone had fallen in, and where at ease, looking right at her. " stachial, can you please Turn on the ship wide P.A, and patch it in to the Escorting ships? " there wasn't a seconds delay, " Already done Ma'am" he replyed, she Cleared her throte, and began.

" In fighting the hunters, and Unjust of the colonys, we have begun a dangerous and uncertain journey, and none of us can see its end, but our cause, remains a just one, that thruth, honors and sanktifies our fallen comrades, who have made the ultimate sacrafice, so that we can carry on the wrok that is ahead of us, we are gathered her today to honor there memories, and, there names.

Master at Arms: " Bout Face! "

The command line snapped around to face the window, and the view of Malta and its Distant Star, Then as the coffins started to slip from the side ports, he called again.

" A'ten hut! " and all present, even the crew on the Bridge, stood from there posts and snaped into a salute. A bugular began to play as Major Began to read off names.

As he finished, all present slowly lowered there arms, back to attention, and Kristy continued.

" From the stars we came, to the stars we return, from now, until the end of time, we there fore commit these bodys....to the deep. "

As the last casket glided twords the Star, a Wing of Fighters formed around them Escorting them to there Final resting place.........
