High orbit over planet Vedder
Kennewes System
The sparking Conquest battleship's bridge was flooded with light as the warship cleared Vedder's Terminator. Captain Veres Adler sat in his custom reclining chair, rubbing his temple as the ship slowly floated over the planet.
"Sir, our escort is beginning its swapping maneuvers now," called out his one of his bridge hands, his eyes more on his magazine than his sensor read-outs non-withstanding. "Stupid lazy bast-hads," grunted Adler, irritated at the fact his escorting ships had crews too lazy to stay airborne overnight.
Outside the semi-comfortable confines of the warship, the two Vampires that had been flying abreast the much larger battleship began to dive towards the planets atmosphere, followed closely by three Oberon escorts that had been accompanying it. To replace them came five Bellystabber-class ships, along with an extra five Oberon vessels.
"Cadet... uh... Cadet-man on the Comm unit, shoot off a message to that supply fleet, ask them why their ships are straying way off too-wards ta mown."
"Aye, Captain Adler," replied the communications officer, and spent several moments typing out a two-sentence notification advising the straying ships to "GTFBH", a message that was not understood in any capacity by the supply ships captain, who quickly replied with nothing more than a message of "fuck you", which was promptly ignored by the communications officer.
