"Well there's the rub. We don't want to catch him. At least not yet. We just want to spook him so he hopefully leads us to what we're all looking for." Megatron interjected.

"The good news is this area is so dimensionally unstable that Sideways left a trackable transwarp signal." The Transtech added. "The bad news is regardless of his earlier performance he is incredibly competent and he hasn't begun to use his full bag of tricks yet. The only real way to deal with him is to slowly work your way through them all. Also possible bad news, the ship doesn't really have working long term transwarp drive yet, just an emergency escape jump. I wasn't really expecting this sort of scenario so I didn't prioritize it. As such we'll be chasing him on foot so to speak. Is everyone excited?"
