Ghosts of the Past...

[marauder]

Moments after the Vulcan had left an Order fleet of ten osiris's and forty mepthys VHFs jumped into the system.

"Bring the missile and battlerazor turrets online." Bloodfrenzy ordered.

'Done." Aridane replied.

"You use the missile turrets against the fighters, four slavoes should do for each fighter." Bloodfrenzy shifted and actived several controls, "I'll use the battlerazors against the osiris's."

An hour later the blasted hulks of the Order vessels drifted slowly towards an unnamed planet, the only one in the system.

The Desolator was also drifting, it's main reactor had overloaded and melted it's way out of the ship. A mepthys, that was passing by, got hit by the radioactive mass and was instantly vaporised.

The desolator's turrets were mostly melted and fused into place or missing entirely. The ship had massive sections of it's hull rent open, you could see through it in places. The nose was totally missing, an exploding osiris had vented drive plasma and melted it off.

A nomad BS slowly moved close to the crippled phantom vessel, after several minutes it moved away again headed towards the dyson sphere gate.
