The Unknown

[Cat]

The bridge was full of people, as usual. Colonel Golanski was still on that platform in the middle, behind the bridge console. He usually was there, observing the crew doing their jobs and making sure that nothing goes wrong. Brian saw him checking the console. "Probably something important. I think I'll let Bolevara talk to him, once the Colonel's done with that message."

With that thought in mind he went to the Navigator. Allerton was busy plotting course.

- We received a message from the Colonel. What happened?
- Don't know the details. Golanski just ordered the full sweep of the system, can't say more than that. You really should ask him.
- So, you have no idea what's going on?
- The Colonel only mentioned increased nomad activity. Look Scott, can we talk later? You don't want the Sarco to collide with some large asteroid or get dragged into some unknown jumphole while we're moving, do you? Plotting course for such a large vessel isn't as easy as flying a fighter.
- Ok, Allerton.

Brian sighed. "Guess I'll have to wait until Golanski tells something about this operation." He took a free seat behind one of the terminals and began checking the gathered data. So far the advanced scanners of Sarcophagus couldn't detect the centre of that activity. "But that was two days ago. Something may have changed." Brian leaned back in the chair, waiting until the officers in charge give him more info.
