Encounter on a road to nowhere (Mid-Res, Wide Format)
🕑 Added 2023-11-27 00:03:14 +0000 UTCEric & Dmitri are back in Sirius Sector tracking missing cargo for an important (and well-paying) client. Following the transponder's hyperspace signal led them to the remote desert of a low-tech world where they are now.
Eric examines the hyperspatial tracker's read-out, "Looks like the ship the container was on went down out here," he looks up at Dmitri who looks back at him, "The transponder's moving, speed is consistent with a ground vehicle, something local."
Dmitri smirks, "Native found it?"
Eric nods, "Yeah, prolly," he reads his display, "Looks to be alone, no big population centers nearby. Let's go grab it before he gets somewhere with it!" Eric grins.
Dmitri plots an intercept course from the coordinates that Eric provides and they soon spot a single native transport on a lonely isolated road.
"We've got company!" declares Dmitri as their ship approaches the slow-moving vehicle from behind.
Eric snarls, "Shit! Looks like one of Kalen's agents - he's firing on the poor guy!"
"Shit is right!" Dmitri chuckles as he maneuvers their larger ship in pursuit at low altitude, "That native is probably crapping himself right now!"
