The Rogue Officer

[Wolfs Ghost]

Chapter Two

Freeport One

Austin nodded a bit, "I...I have no idea what that was about. Though...I do want to get to Rheinland space before the next Armed Forces patrol." He trailed off a bit and broke out into a jog towards his fighter, climbing up the bulkheads and into the cockpit.

A few minutes went by and the three fighters left the hangar, meeting out in space, Austin's fighter was obviously in the lead as they headed deep into Rheinland space.


Planet Holstein

Planet Holstein, a fairly cold watery world in the Frankfurt system. Daumann Heavy Construction has been terraforming this icy yet wet world for quite sometime. It was even the home of over sixty million Rheinlanders. Scattered across the planet were large platforms used for housing, spaceports, and terraforming.

The sun was just peeking over the horizon, the water was glimmering. Coming from the darkside of the planet were three vessels. A Raven Talon, a Falcon, and in the middle of them both, a Templar.

Setting calmly in the glow of the morning sun and the calm ocean was a platform, abandoned long ago from Kruger's old attempt at trying to terraform the planet. This platform has been long since forgotten and is even off the current day navigation charts. Perfect for Austin and his small group to set up a base camp to operate into the Sigma's.

Thankfully from the Rheinland Military he was allowed free access in and out of Rheinland space, and was even given a Rheinland Mini-razor. The thought that Major General Rall gave them permission to operate in Rheinland space despite him being a fugitive to Bretonia was quite an amusing thought indeed, included in that thought was a one time offer for them getting anything they needed, though Austin doubted that it's still up for grabs.

The three vessels landed on separate landing platforms on the over all old Kruger terraforming platform, and all three pilots met up near the middle.

"Well boys, this should be our new home for awhile. Bit chilly, though I'm sure we can deal with it. First order of business...figure out how to turn the damn heat on."
