Operation Neon Tiger - episode 05

Intro

It wasn't difficult for Brother Hermann to obtain the necessary information from Koseacasomov. He certainly did not lack means of persuasion, even if not perfectly in line with the procedures of the Concilium.
After that, brother Hermann retired to his cabin in the Uluru, to record the information snatched from Koseacasomov into his personal log.

"That thing is an xeno archeotech artifact that allows to track down a place, but its technology is still shrouded in mystery. Koseacasomov was unable to explain how it works, but he was certain of one thing: that the artifact only works in right hands. "

Hermann has rarely found himself groping in the dark in his life. Uncertainty is not part of his person. Yet this time he feels he is out of step with his enemies. It is an unpleasant, burning sensation, especially considering the quality of the troops he has moved for this mission.

"If I have to stay behind - thought Hermann - at least those in front of me had to feel my pressure."

Thanks to this thought, he found a little determination, just enough to make a decision. 
He exited the cabin and headed for the Uluru control deck. Since the Sahs had disappeared from the Pano tracking systems, he gave the order to intercept and follow the Nomads ship . 
To Hermann's utter astonishment, the Quetzal was tracked down to a nearby spaceport. If itwas there, very likely, the Shas would be around too.

Intro 

Emergency! Emergency! Please leave Terminal Benbow. Hlökk Station and its subsidiaries deny any responsability for damage to people or property if you don't comply immediately

...the alert went on, as the whole terminal turned to emergency mode, lighting up red lights all around the Sonic Blues and all the other docked ships. 

PanOceanian elite forces took position within the terminal, urging all personel to leave and be biometrically scanned. While unaware of the alien's ship nor of their real intentions, the intelligence gathered by battleship Uluru was clear: the Shasvastii had already reached the station, and Terminal Bembow was the only one who had recieved ships in the last cycles.

Expecting heavy armored resistance and sly infiltrators, specialists from every sectorial were summoned to face the alien threat.

The air lock of his containment pod snapped and Anton took a deep breath of the station's metallic breeze: his mind went back in time for twenty years, to the night when he found a strange artifact in the ore rubble of that very same mining facility...
