Fantasy Space Quest

A man's face became visible and though he was smilimg, it looked very unpleasant. "Quite a ship you have thee, missie." He said to you. "How about you let a real pilot fly it home?"

Space pirates.

At that moment the ship beeped and a second shuttle appeared in front of yours. Your shulttle's automatic systems decided it was too close and to avoid collision it slowed down and stopped. The ship behind you parked itself closely as well. The shuttle now assumed it was in a traffic jam and wouldn't budge anymore. You'd have to override the automatic flight and get out yourself.

If you tried to send out a signal, you were too late. Some kind of scrambler had been activated. "Now now," said the man on the screen. "No need to worry. Just let us aboard your ship and we'll allow you to use an escape pod." Weapons were activated on the back shuttle as a warning you'd better co-operate.

Hensen looked at you, terrified.

Hensen who'd been half asleep, tured from the long day at the convention, woke up. He needed a moment to realise what's going on. "Uh oh..." He said, when he understood your clipped version. It was still a good hour until you'd reach the planet's atmospere. "Answer them?" He asked. "Maybe they just want directions." He didn't sound very convincing. "Or maybe they just wanna letbus know our lights are broken?" You could prepare a distress signal. If this were bad, maybe someone was close enough to answer. You were hailed again.

It was late on this side of the planet when you left the conference. Most people with just day tickets had left earlier and the people still there now stayed overnight. As with so many systems only small parts of the planets were actually inhabited and those parts followed roughly the samedaily cycle. Late on the conference sote of Veridian was also late on the habitated parts of your current home planet. And the shuttle was nearly alone in the vast darkness of space.

Another shuttle had been flying close to yours for a couple of minutes. The sensors had picjed up on it way back. It had just seemed a shuttle whose top dpeed was slightly higher than yours and had thetefore slowly been gaining on you. Now that it had reached you, however, it adapted its speed and hailed you.

You go ahead and make it

Fantasy Space Quest

Hmm, I was planning that wand as a reward. But Pria could buy something nontheless. Perhaps Hensen has somr tricks up his sleeve? He's rich, he loves superheroes and he's going to a superhero convention. Where better to show off his attempt at making one of those cool superhero gadgets? Yeah, I think I got a nice idea. But let's play this out on their way back.

Fantasy Space Quest

Hmm I was thinking there could be someone trying to attack the site and Pria finding put about it, overhearing a conversation while waiting for Hensen to rwturn, but that might be a bit much. Or the ship could get in trouble on the way back (perhaps Hensen did not have his dad's permission to tale the ship like he said he had?). Or they could be attacked on their way back, robbers having spotted the expensive shuttle and wanting to grab it for themselves... Maybe someone would want to grab Hensen for ransom?

Fantasy Space Quest

Alright. Want to come up with a scenario together or do you want to be surprised?

Fantasy Space Quest

I guess. I wasn't really planning on typing out the whole comics concersation since it's not really important story-wise. Would you like some action at some point or would you rather get this missionnover more quickly and move on to Pria buying her first ship?

Fantasy Space Quest

The ship just continued on towards Veridian. When it became close enough a warning beep sounded, alerting you that it was close enough to the planet for you to resume control. There were several lines towards the parking grounds, but the ship even showed you which line you had to follow.

Lol I'm not very focussed on appearance either it seems ^_^"
