Alex Hart
Inside Lorath remnant space;
After the government of the Lorath Matriarchy disappeared, the remanants of its space had become somewhat lawless, and while most inhabitants of the area tried to keep on going the way that they had, some turned to piracy and violence to make their way, something that was about to be demonstrated all too well to Alex and his crew.
The salvage fleet Leftovers
Alarms rang out and explosions rocked the 10 ships of the Leftovers salvage fleet as the defense systems of each ship were targeted and destroyed by the mecha of the pirates, which were most likely produced from stolen designs. "Captain!" A voice rang out through the bridge of the lead ship, the Scrapper, "We need to call for help before our antennae are destroye-" The voice was cut off as another explosion caused the Scrapper to begin to drift.
ISS Araxie
A klaxon rang through the ship, disturbing Alex's meal as the AI of the ship spoke to him in a robotic voice. "Captain, there is an incoming distress call from less than 20 minutes away at our FTL speed."
"Put it on the intercom!" Alex shouted as he pushed his plate to the side and sent a message to his crew to meet him at the bridge. Over the intercom, a voice rendered tinny by the speakers rang through; "Attention anyone who is receiving this, this is the salvage fleet Leftovers, we are under attack by pirates and need help, co-ordinates to follo-" An explosion was audible in the transmission and the AI spoke again. "Coordinates were received before the transmission cut out."
Now on the bridge, Alex waited till everyone had arrived to ask, "Alright, what do you think our best course of action is everyone?"
