She shrugged "It's not a carrier, it's a ship formerly belonging to the military that they don't use anymore. Besides, I bought it. And was a member of the forces anyway. It's where I got this snazzy suit of powered armor."

 

She looked back at her ship. It was outdated, but it still looked far, far better than the ship belonging to the pregnant mare.

 

"... The slythin might still remember Spectrum's face, though, so I would recommend staying out of Slythin space. If anyone wants to ride my ship, hop on, I may as well take someone somewhere"

Ivette scoffed "Well you ain't got no need to be a dick about it, baby killer"

 

((polly, look, you can't have an entire ship to yourself just like  that

 

and before people say 'oh but u did it blz' i actually put down that i had a ship in the thing, while you said you... built it. you don't build ships on your own dummy

 

also they aren't even off the ground. Hell, the airlocks aren't even closed.))

 

She started heading to her ship "Well, if no one else wants to come on the superior ship that doesn't have a child murdering psychopath, a creature capable of eating the entire ship, and a guy with a bounty of a billion on board, than fine. I just think if you think like that, you're never gonna catch one bounty"

[Polaris has one, because the PolariSoft facility used to be an Army Base until it was abandoned, and he found the Ammunition Bunker and made it much much larger, turning it into a bunker kind of as a project, and 200 years later it's really all that's left of the Company]

Invictus sat in the pilots seat, and started the two main engines. They bursted into life, letting out two puffs of exhaust. The ships engines seemed to be working very well, now they were just outdated. She hit a few buttons, putting all the ships settings back to the way they are when she flew it. The ship was refurbished between uses, obviously not much with the squeaky doors, but at least it was flying at its best (which wasn't excellent to begin with).

Invictus put on a hat, reading 'EX1' the code name for the ship. She planned to put on her old pilots uniform too, with some modifications for her pregnant belly, right after take off. The mare pressed a button on the main dashboard to respond to Ivette

"Let me get the prisoner situated first" Invictus let go of the button. She headed for a compartment towards the back of the bridge. It was a ammo locker, that contained weapons, ammo, the cuffs, and other emergency items, only opened by a code Invictus knew. She quickly took the cuffs, shut the locker, and applied them to James. They were tough energy cuffs, but were not as uncomfortable as other cuffs. Surely, they weren't fun to wear.

She looked at the others in the group as soon as she shut the airlock. Invictus pointed at Spectrum "You put him in the cell in the back of the ship. Head down the main deck, all the way in the back, you can't miss it" Invictus handed her a paper with the code to the door. She whispered in her ear, so that James wouldn't hear "Code to the door, don't let him see it"

Invictus sat back down. She pressed the radio button "Alright, we're clear"

Ivette's ship took off. It wasn't all that large, but had enough room for multiple people.

 

The words 'Vampire cat' adorned the nose of the ship, obviously that was it's name, and a painting of a skeletal cougar head with blood dripping from it's maw were emblazoned on the wings of the ship.

 

It was faster than the freighter, as to be expected, given it was intended for quick dropoffs, trench runs, and movement. 

 

Ivette loved being in the pilot seat.

 

A hologram appeared to the side of her "Ivette, where are we headed?"

 

She glanced back at the Alveare stood in the bay behind her "So... your name's glaciar, right?"

 

Glaciar nodded.

 

"...Where were your friends heading?"

 

Glaciar tapped on a map and pointed out the bounty location. "Well, it is that, or Anur Phaetos."

 

"Anur Phaetos? The fuck are they heading there for?"

 

Glaciar shrugged "I'll communicate with them"

 

She tapped a screen, opening the viewport and allowing her to make contact.

 

"Hello? God I hate talking through these things. Why were we heading to Anur Phaetos?"

Wolf looked at Invictus' ship, and then back at Ivette.  And although he though Ivette was being incredibly rude, he decided that being on a ship with a large bounty, and a questionably safe parasite, wasn't the best choice, and his survival instinct kicked in.

 

"Hold up Ivette, I'm riding with you." He called out to her as she started to walk away.

 

He turned around and said to the others, "Sorry, it's nothing personal.  Just trying to beat the odds."

 

((Ok... back up to speed now))

"you can call me Wolf," he said coolly.  "I don't know anything about that bounty.  I just saw the sign and it happened to be in the same direction I'm headed... Figured I could get a cheap ride that way.  But if there's money in it, I might stick around, and see what happens... if you all don't kill each-other first that is."  Wolf started chuckling to himself again.

Spectrum walked down the hall just as Invictus said, and put James in one of the cells. Then Spectrum turned to him and said, "I'll be back after takeoff and mabye I can address your wounds. For now however, I can do this."

 

Spectrum took some gauze form her saddlebags and wrapped it around James's wounds. She then closed the door to the cell and inputed the code that Invictus gave her. With that done, Spectrum dashed up to the front of the ship and was fast enough to hear Glacier's question.

 

"I don't know." said Spectrum, "I'll look at the holo disc, you guys just take off."

 

Spectrum sat in the copilot seat and said, "Ready to go!"

 

Then Spectrum pulled out the holo disc and started reading the files.

Invictus looked at Spectrum sitting in the navigators seat behind her. She hit a few buttons and the ship started to slowly progress out of the dock, then proceeded to stare at her again

"I don't know if I trust you, but I need a navigator. If you are sitting there, you might as well make yourself useful. I know most of the way, but pulling up a stellar map would be nice"

Spectrum pulled herself away from the holo disc for just a moment to comply with Invictus's command. Spectrum flicked a few switches and pressed a few buttons and then, a large holo map appeared. Spectrum opened a hatch on the side of the panel and pulled a little cord out. She plugged it into the holo disc and watched as several new areas appeared on the map.

 

Spectrum studied it for a few moments and then said, "I got some bad news. Get us into space, and then radio Ivette's ship. I know where Anur Phaetos is."

"Starfire, we're almost at the JetLag Spaceport now" was what Starfire woke up to.  It was L.U.N.A., and the huge spacestation that was the JetLag Spaceport loomed in front of them.  With L.U.N.A. doing most of the work, Starfire Landed the Destroyer in the spaceport after a small incident where the dock he tried to land on was not compatible with the older docking port the destroyer had, forcing Starfire to fly to a different station that had the older docks.  After that debacle, Starfire docked the Ship, again with L.U.N.A.'s help, and opened the Hatches, walking out into the Station in search of the Freighter he was instructed to guard.

Spectrum turned on the communicator and said, "Listen up! I was going to tell you this in space, but I'll tell you this now, since its simpler. Anur Phaetos is not a planet, but a galaxy. Its far out of the colonized realm, so the trip there is no picnic. The fastest route is through Talas space and then Fasaajiir space. The only problem is that the Pythor, that Slythin that talked to you guys, has a base of operations in the Fasaajiir space on a small moon called Mor Ortisi. I calculated the route, and even if we gut supplies at the Talas worlds, we will still need to stop somewhere in Fasaajiir space. After that though, its just the vastness of space, until we reach the galaxy. I'll see what is even in Anur Phaetos now."

 

Spectrum then truned back to the holo disc and continued to search for information on it.

Nobody would randomly hop on a ship for a journey that long.

Also, why would there be a bounty in the city they are in, for a place so far away? Unless it's a BIG bounty, that wouldn't be. And even if it is a big bounty, why would their little, rag tag group, go after it? If it's a bounty that big, that it's in multiple galaxies, and shown to multiple races, wouldn't there probably be much bigger and stronger groups obviously going after it?

[I keep trying Polaris because I'm used to being Polaris and then I have to go back and type Starfire xD]

 

Starfire eventually walked up to the Departure Manager and gave him his papers, receiving a Laugh from the Pony at the desk.

 

"What, what is it?" Starfire asked confusedly.

"So you're the poor sap the Army sent out to guard that bounty hunter freighter, eh?  Don't ya know they only let you do it do they wouldn't have to?"  Laughed the Manager as he stamped out the papers.

 

"Well I don't care, I'm sick of Earth!" Starfire said, "At least I'm doing something off the Planet!"

 

"Well the Freighter left hours ago, have fun chasing it down, and maybe I'll give ya a job when you come Limping back here, eh?"  the Manager said, handing Starfire his Papers.  

 

"You watch, I have L.U.N.A. piloting the ship, she'll find it for me!" Starfire said indignantly.

 

"What, the Princess, or that A.I. they told us about in history books, the one that died along with that Blue weirdo?"  the Manager said, leaning forward a little.

 

"The A.I., and she's better than the clunky A.I.s you have" Starfire said, turning around and walking off.

 

"Sure, she's only 200 years old!" The Manager yelled at the retreating Red pony before sitting back in his chair, chuckling to himself.

 

Soon, Starfire was back in the Ship and he had taken off, hoping to catch up to the Freighter, the words of the Stationmaster repeating themselves in his head as he walked around the ship, looking around at the Strange Hybrid of antiquated and newer Computers.

 

[Hah, to put this in perspective, Polaris' ship has DOS 2.0 while everyone else has windows 12 or whatever]

[But there's no A.I. out there quite like L.U.N.A. cx]

[Ok, Starfire's Destroyer is a little smaller than the Freighter, but larger than the little ship.]

Think of it in real world terms:

Freighter=Oil Tanker size
Starfire's Destroyer=Battleship size
The other ship=Flagship size

 

[Ok now that I have the sizes I can actually do something]

Things felt refreshed, and hopeful for once, when Invictus was at the wheel. She remembered every button, every knob, all the light switches, all the meters, the smudge on the bridge glass, and even the comfortableness of the seat (in her eyes). These were all things she remembered in her glory days, flying this ship with a crew, and a future husband. She wished they would of gotten married, or exchanged vows, before he passed, but Invictus' world was crushed that day. She figured out a week later, in all the sorrow, and pain of a empty ship, that she wasn't alone. She was having a foal, but it only made matters worse. Now she had to raise the foal of a dead man, but as time went on, she knew she would be raising the offspring of what was a amazing stallion. At least before he died, though he was never wed, or got to see the later years of his life, at least his legacy would live on with a son. Invictus was proud to be pregnant with that son, though she yearned to see his brilliant face once again. She begged, wished, and hoped, that she could just hold that incredible stallion again, but it would never happen. All this, was a reset. This was her chance to move on and do what he would want her to do. 

 

Invictus' ship, when clear of the dock, fired up it's engines, and blasted off in the same direction as Ivette's. A aura of excitement surrounded Invictus, signaling she was also in a much better mood. She smiled, and once the ship was on route, she jumped up from her seat and checked some screens about the bridge, tracking the ships progress. Everything seemed to be running well. The tanks were full, engines were running at full capacity, and the speed was consistent. The only thing left was to check the navigation. Invictus headed over to Spectrum, annoyed by what she saw, though staying happy

 

"Okay... You're a bit wrong" She grumbled "You see-" Invictus pointed at the map "We're on the edge of this galaxy, once we reach a relay, we're going to be teleported over to the next galaxy, where, towards the middle, our destination will be. We're only going over one galaxy, finding the planet, and docking on it's moon. No multiple galaxies, or anything like that. What I think you did, is counted the galaxy we're totally jumping over with the relay. That doesn't count, since technically, with the teleport relay, we won't be travelling it at all. At the end of this relay, is a station we can pick up supplies at, though we actually already have some. This trip will take..." Invictus hit some buttons, doing some math on the total distance "About a maybe, 3 days at most. Okay? Now please, keep a eye on the map for anything red, I'm putting on the auto pilot, checking on James, then getting dressed...."

 

Invictus started to walk off, but stopped "Oh... I hope you know once we get to that moon, your helping us pick up the bounty there before you go on your marry way. If you didn't notice, there is a 3 million dollar bounty on some Talas there. 3 million? I sure your hopping out of your seat, but that's if we get it at all, and I'm sure 2 million is going to be put aside for our means of transportation... If we continue this thing" Invictus shrugged "But hey, you'll get a share of it if you navigate well, and help us actually get the kill. I can't harm a fly, so we'll need all the help we can get"

 

After that, Invictus headed to her quarters. Inside, it was a bit dusty and dirty, but she had it straightened up quickly. She looked in her dresser, and saw her uniform. She was stupid to think it would fit over her large stomach, no thanks to the baby. She sighed, annoyed by this, but wasn't going to accept defeat. Invictus cut out the stomach portion, then stitched on a stretchy piece of material to replace it. The final result looked good, and the mother actually looked like a certified pilot.... If pilots were pregnant mares. Invictus was happy with herself.

 

Next was to check on James, which in the better mood she was, couldn't be so bad. Invictus grabbed a knife anyhow, which she would never use in a million years, and put it in her uniform in case anything went wrong. How things could go wrong with him wearing energy cuffs? She didn't know. The mare headed towards the back of the ship, wiping down things as she went along, to improve the living quality of the ship. Once she got to the last door, she stepped in quietly, looking at James suffering on the floor. Good thing during her wiping fest, she quickly hopped into the medical ward and grabbed some things to help him.

 

Invictus put the code in, and the energy field stopping James from escaping went down. She quietly headed in and knelt beside him. First was a red shot to deal with the internal bleeding, and another blue shot was to speed up the process of healing his cuts and bruises. She bandaged up any areas that had a chance of sprain, or a broken bone, but it was mostly large cruises the second of the shots was starting to heal. Invictus thanked Celestia for advanced medicine, but cursed them for not saving her fiance.

 

In this time, it was a good time to talk. Invictus' nature made her interested in this new pony, and have sympathy for him.. Somehow

 

"You know" She said with a very gentle voice as she aided him "We all have a mother, I'm sure you know that, they brought us into this world and are the first thing we ever know. Your mothers coat, heartbeat, warmth, and love, are most of the time the first thing a foal is introduced too. At one point, you were just a little pony inside your mothers womb, defenseless, and completely dependent on her. Who cares what happened afterwards, honestly, because it goes wrong sometimes... but just always remember, since you are living, your mother made the ultimate sacrifice of 9 months to bring you into this world. It's what I'm going through for my own son, that will grow as big as you someday. Maybe he won't make the same mistakes, but he will be a strong stallion. It's very important to me, more than anything. I would die for this baby to be born, you saw it when I woke up, it was the first precaution I took. So... All this time, care, and effort, I don't know why you would threaten somepony so precious to me, and somepony that is so defenseless and weak..."

 

Invictus stood up and sighed "Now, do I think you're a 'baby murderer'? No. Do you think you meant to cause harm to me or the baby? I hope not. But before you make a threat like that, to any mare that is expecting, just remember all the hardship that mother is currently going through, all the things she is sacrificing, just to bring a pony into the world, just like your mom did for you"

 

(( I talked to Spectrum and James, and said some important things. You should read this, or at least, skim through the dialogue )) 


((um, the ships aren't nearly that big.

 

like, that's massively oversized))

(( I don't think he means literally the ships would be that size, I think he means the size difference between the real world ships is the same ))

Spectrum was relieved that the trip was only 3 days. However she wasn't happy at what she found in the Anur Phaetos file. She wanted to find somewhere to sleep and make a bed for Topaz, but the file was more important.

 

Spectrum flipped on the radio for the ship and the transmitter to Ivett's ship and said, "Ok. The file says that there is a species that only inhabits Anur Phaetos. Apperantly it's some sort of black tar like creature with swirly red eyes. They have the ability to bind to somecreatures body and use it to attack. However, thank god, they have a weakness. If they haven't bonded to a host, then they have a smaller "head" floating over them that is an easy hit for an easy kill. However if they have bonded to somecreature, then the "head" shrinks and attatches itself to the chest of the host. The "head" is still vulnerable, but its harder to attack it without killing the host. However, another weakness is that it only works if it has a clear shot of the face of the victim. So hazmat suits should work fine...But...be careful...Spec- i mean Gumball out."

 

Spectrum leaned back in her chair thinking of the dark abominations that they would soon face.

 

She then picked up the radio for Invictus's ship and said, "Hey, do I have a place to sleep in?"

She is really not that important, I think they just want her, and want her quick, so they are bluffing a big bounty so everyone goes racing to turn her in" She looked out a window, showing the vastness and beauty of the space they were flying in "And we are already on the hunt for another bounty"

And this is what I think of all the shit your giving me" Invictus put a tranquilizer needle in James "Good night, I'll be in the bridge. I try to be a good pony... and this is what I get"

 

She closed the cell, and headed back for the bridge in her uniform. She approaches Spectrum "How do I look? Do you like what I did with the stomach?" she looked at herself, the stretchy material covering her bloated stomach

Spectrum yawned as she said, "I like it. You have inginuity...which is a good thing out here. *yawn* I for one love this ship. They don't make them like this anymore. Everything's outdated, but this ship's energy core is more powerful than the newer models...*yawn*...Well...I'm a little bit of a mechanic, so if we can find some new parts, then I might be able to fix your ship up a little. Like a new energy field, or a couple adapters changed...just small stuff. But anyway, I'm going to get some sleep. We got a big day tomorrow."

 

Spectrum walked out of the bridge and turned toward the rooms that the ship had. However, on her way there, Spectrum bumped into Nyla.

 

"Oh, sorry." said Spectrum, "I was just going to bed. You might want to as well, since we have a little bit of a trip to Anur Phaetos...Oh and you can head up to the bridge if you want to know about Anur Phaetos or talk to Invictus."

 

Spectrum then continued down to the bedrooms.

Starfire soon caught up to the Large Freighter to find, to his surprise, that a smaller ship with a few guns was already flying along with it.  It wasn't much to fight a true spacebattle with, but it was still better protection than the few turrets the freighter had.  Starfire knew his Lasers were very powerful, but any ship that had an energy field would be completely invulnerable to them, so he was glad to see that the smaller ship's guns were of a different type.  He patted his rifle, essentially a much smaller version of the large guns on the destroyer, and said,

"Ok Luna, can you send out a transmission to the Freighter?   I'm not sure if they know about me yet...." 

 

"Yes, turn over to the camera and I'll send it" she said, the Screen on the side of the Pilot's deck flickering to show a Loading icon, the little green light on the camera blinking on.   Starfire tried to look presentable, and walked over in front of the camera, waiting for the Freighter to respond.
"Ok, and make sure you use the Compatibility drivers we made, so you can connect to them." Starfire said.

 

"I got it, and I'll send your papers along with the call so they have the official stuff" L.U.N.A. said, the Freighter not responding thus far.

 

Starfire mumbled something, waiting for the screen to change.

[Well there, made contact and all]

Starfire recoiled a little at the response he got, but shook it off quickly, switching over to match the venom of the other person.  "Well, I'm Starfire, I was sent to protect your Flanks in whatever messes you decide to get stuck in!"

Starfire frowned and said, "I...   I was hired...  Isn't this the bounty hunter ship?"

 

"Um Starfire you better not screw this up there's two missiles pointed at us" L.U.N.A. said, splitting the call between herself and Starfire. She looked at the other person and said,  "Ok, Starfire built this ship and the Equestrian army told him they'd pay him quite the sum if he guarded this freighter so that they wouldn't have to.  This Destroyer is a retired Equestrian Space Destroyer, after all, just with different computer systems and weapons."

 

[L.U.N.A. just looks like Princess Luna, but computer Generated and she displays various visual things while she talks]

[And she's been around a while, along with being the first A.I. ever made, so you Might recognize her voice, especially because it's actually princess Luna's voice, just recorded for L.U.N.A. to speak with.]

"Ahh, yes, I do almost all of the work here on the ship, everything is automated" L.U.N.A. said.

 

"And I can see the reasons you don't trust me, it's probably really suspicious that a Single Pony in an old destroyer with an A.I. from the original Computer Revolution and some untypical Laser cannons-" Starfire realized that he was starting to ramble on and shook his head, resuming with "Well I'm not exactly out to ruin you mission, because according to Luna, the Freighter doesn't have a shield up, so I would've blown it up by now if I was here to sabotage you.  And I'm actually starting to think that they let me do this because they want to use me to get to that pony, Spectrum, but I'm not going to just hand her over like that, so I guess I came to warn you, too, I overheard one of them mentioning a search party..."

 

[Army VS hunters, the race to keep Spectrum?]

[Sounds like a good idea but I don't know]

[I'll be back on in a few hours Dx]

((dude, no one knows who spectrum is anymore. Ivette changed her identity from Spectrum to Gumball))

Ivette cut him off "Equestria doesn't use AIs. Too paranoid, they feel a single AI could ruin everything. You're fake"

Invictus smiled at Spectrum "Why, thank you" she said as she started to walk off. She heard some blabber on the radio, that see didn't care much about, until the slow radar system let out a loud beep. Invictus' ears perked up, and she trotted over to the navigation computer Spectrum wasn't paying attention to. Her eyes widened as she looked at the screen, staring at a red dot "Damn it Spectrum!" Invictus yelled as she pointed to the red dot "I told you to watch for red dots!"

The mare headed over to the controls as fast as she could, jumped in her seat, and cranked up the engines. If she listened to the radio, she would of known the ship behind her was friendly. Invictus actually did rewind the transmissions, but still didn't believe it was a friendly. Why would the radar classify it as hostile? It was obviously armed to the teeth

Invictus pulled the large freighter out of auto pilot, and switched back into manual. She jerked the wheel to the right, as the engines sped up, making the ship do a spiralling roll. Everybody on bored started to roll with the ship, but soon the gravity core came online, holding everyone down to the deck. Soon, the ship had some distance between the other.

"Ivette?! Get him of me! He's armed to the teeth! He's going to shoot us down!" Invictus said, panicked. Last time this happened, she was hijacked

Ivette nodded "Alrighty, scatter your ass!"

 

She aimed her joysticks, flying the ship into the air, and flying it past the destroyer. She knew where the ships weak points were, everyone in the squad did. They could take down destroyers with ease in the right places that way.

 

She fired her two 3k Rainmaker rotary cannons at the weaker points of the ship, such as the external shielding ports.

 

Bullets did something lasers didn't do shielding; They overwhelmed it's strength from the kinetic energy, and made it focus on too many places at once.

 

The shield cracked with ease, and a second run of bullets tore through subsystems. She didn't destroy the air supply, wanting to interogate the pilot, but she disabled the shields completely, followed by removing the weapon systems.

 

She sent a signal to the destroyer.

 

"Turn off your engines, and explain to my why you lured us into a sense of security, or I'll DESTROY YOUR FUCKING AIR RECYCLERS AND LISTEN TO YOU CHOKE TO DEATH!"

James let out a soft whimper as he hit the wall when the ship randomly spun around, as he was about to recover, the gravity core turned back on, making him fall back to the ground. "F-fuck.." He grunted, looking around "The fuck happened up there?" He shouted slightly, not waiting for a response.

"The hell are you doing Ivette!?" Wolf roared.  "you fired on a passive ship... while holding peaceful communications.  That's bad form, especially for the pony race.  and you did it because that pregnant pilot told you to? lying or not... if that ship was going to fire, it would have done so already."

 

Despite the roar.  Wolf looked quite calm, and was just standing in a corner.  still... he knew how creatures could be (especially most creatures he'd met in the last few hours), so he was actually leaning forward on his toes slightly ready to evade any attack.  This was his normal stance with everyone he met, but he was extra aware of the possibility at the moment.

 

He paused for a second and sighed.  "your ship, your rules... but that was still an very ignorant stunt... and I'm glad I'm only a passenger, because I'm not sure I want to associate myself with such a rude, hot-headed pony."

Ivette didn't pay too much attention. Ship subsystems were easy to fix, especially with AI assistance, and, hell, she trusted Invictus' judgement.

She glanced at wolf "It had an AI on board, the pilot said he was here to 'guard', despite us not being warned, and the ship and it's AI defying that very statement. Combined with the fact we're still in the orbit of a planet filled with liars, cheats, scammers and murderers, I think it's good to not take any chances."

She didn't look at him "disagree with me if you want, but I'm not gonna kill him"

Spectrum toppled over as the ship swerved, but was able to right herself, once the gravity was activated.

 

"What was that?" Spectrum asked herself.

 

She dash up to the bridge again and said, "Enemy ship? If it is...just tell me where the main cannons are."

 

((Note that this is implying that every ship has weapons that can fire from the bridge and large weapons that need to be piloted))

"I don't like being considered the 'pregnant pilot" Invictus said, holding the button down. Ivette must of forgot to flip the switch, because she heard everything. "Just because I'm pregnant, doesn't take away the fact that I was a captain at one point too. I may have not been a good leader, but I was a damn good pilot. My radars marked his ship as hostile, and it was armed heavily, precautions were necessary. Ivette is right, we have to watch what we're doing out here, or we're going to get killed. Last ship I trusted for similar reasons, got ponies killed, and I don't want that to happen again"

 

Invictus sighed, her swirling chair turned to look at Spectrum "We don't know, just keep a eye out for things like that. We don't have cannons, it's a cargo ship... Maybe when we make some credits, that can be something we add"

 

The freighter now was under Ivette's ship. Invictus turned the engines down, but kept them at some speed to keep up with Ivette
