The word came in from the fleet high command, the Rubicon was being transferred to Tau 37 for guarding of the system from the Outcast threat.

This is it, Alex thought, now he was gonna see some proper action, and not just these occasional patrols and boring miner escort details.

Half the time being out on boring assignments, having to stay on Java station for days on end, with the lousy food and lousier company, it was starting to get to him, and this couldn't have come at a better time.

But he knew it'd not be without danger, the pirates were en mass in that system, and he was sure he'd have a hard time.
Good luck for him that he enjoyed having it difficult.

The whole pilot rec. room was buzzing with rumours of the sights in Tau 37, and the myriad of dangers it contained.
They were spreading like wildfire, and every viper jock out there was pretty damn excited he was gonna see some action.
Too bad most of them didn't yet know how 'action' mostly ends for the average pilot.
