The Rogue Officer

[Jeremy Hunter]

Izzy jerked up, her ears filled with warning. It was a connection between the addled mind of Jeremy and herself.

Earlier:

Jeremy, being in Pennsylvania on Vacation, and still recovering from a taxing ordeal with a keepers, felt the Scorpians. He jerked had jerked up, mumbled something about Izzy, and that his anme was Merlin. It ws fuzzy, but still he knew what was going on.

The love of his life was in grave danger.

Jeremy jumped out of bed and sprinted to Bethlehem's Command Center, showing his Order Guard ID as he ran up. He was allowed in.

"Major Hunter. May I help you?"
"I need to use your comm array right now."
"Right this way."

Jeremy took one step and collapsed. The burst Merlin had sent had flashed into him, and it drained him.

Jeremy struggled out two words.

"Call...Orion."

He fell unconcious.


Present:

Izzy swore. Namine had sent the message after Jeremy had fallen unconcious. It was important.

Izzy was swearing a blue streak that would have made an Old Earht Sailor stop and stare as she ran to the bossted com array.

"Mayday, Mayday, Orion, mayday, Athena about to be under attack at-"

The Scorpians appeared.

"Go evasive! I got my fighter! At-"

The comms died.

"Dammit..."

Izzy ran to her fighter and unclipped as the Athena took hits. She yelled in the comms to the three on the station.

"DAS WILDE GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"

Back in Pennsylvania, Jeremy boarded his Sekhmet, and the unfinished, shell of the Ghost Eye angled for a jump. It's shield was a fighters, its engies where a Hathors, and its hyperdrive was slow. Jeremy prepped the Sekhmet to launch.

For once he wished he had TObias and the Scarlette's Memory.
