Dedication
For Cassie.
Because sometimes our adventures took us to unexpected places, but we always came out okay on the other side.
Brace for impact!
Captain Dani Devereaux called out. The guns on the massive enemy Vaerian ship let loose another barrage of white energy blasts. The attack was in sync with an assault from a dozen single-pilot fighter ships.
Alaska’s Vengeance shuddered as shots made contact with the already weakened shields. Dani relaxed her white-knuckled grip on her console and raised her hand to the communications device in her ear. Peterson, anytime now would be great.
We’re doing the best we can out here, Captain. These fighters are better than any others we’ve encountered.
Dani watched as Peterson’s red-tailed fighter zipped around the Vaerian destroyer in pursuit of the quick fighter ships. Her own ship focused fire on the enemy’s primary weapons system, the yellow-hued shields lighting up as the attack made contact. The destroyer’s guns began to glow again as they charged for another attack.
Dani veered Alaska’s Vengeance away from the weapons mounted on top of the enemy ship and dipped beneath it.
Now we’re talking!
Jag shouted from the right side of the bridge as he fired the remote-linked weapons into the underbelly of the ship. Their shields have got to be about shot.
Our shields are down to eighteen percent; theirs are estimated around the same,
Cassia alerted the crew.
I’m going to swing around for another drive-by,
Dani said as she banked the Galactic Conglomerate ship and angled it back toward the destroyer for another pass. Hit it with all you’ve got, Jag.
My pleasure,
he replied as Alaska’s Vengeance’s weapons systems began to hum with power.
Dani could almost hear the grin in his voice as he called out, but she didn’t dare look away. The battle had gone on far longer than she
