Prelude: Long Days, Long Nights

[Bo]

"So you have a niece?" says Alexus with a gruff chortle. "At least I know /something/ about you." He continues to pilot the ship towards Omega. "Good idea," he says to Kinney as he watches her check weapons. "Make sure that David fellow does the same.."

[TetNak]

The two engage in some chit-chat as the ship gets closer to Omega. Finally, their ship is hailed.

"This is Omega Spaceport Control. Frigate ... class ship, what is your destination and cargo?"

[Bo]

Alexus keys the transmission over. He leans forward to speak, his voice practiced and even. "This is captain Alexus Tai aboard the... Juggernaut.." he says, smirking to himself. "No cargo. Only myself and two others. We have business planetside."

[TetNak]

"Proceed," the operator says. This is Omega after all, they really won't care what you are doing unless it is dangerous to whoever runs this place. Otherwise, criminal activity is basically going to happen no matter what, a free-for-all is likely waiting when they touch down.

[Bo]

"Hold on tight," says Alexus. He keys in the coordinates for landing on Omega. "From what I hear, this place can be... well.. let's just say you don't take your family here for vacation."

He looks out the viewport as Omega grows larger and larger. Perhaps he sees the upper atmosphere streaming over the hull of the ship.

[TetNak]

The space station grows larger as Alexus guides the small freighter toward the central docking station. He navigates alongside the bay and veers into the coordinates transmitted by control as to where to land. The Turians sits the ship down and sensors show everything is normal. Looking outside, the port is full of hustle and bustle, but there is certainly no one there to greet them, for good or bad.

[Bo]

Alexus looks out the viewport as he lands. "Looks like all is clear," he says. "At least I don't see any Krogan's ready to rip my head, arms, and legs off." He presses a button and there is a beeping as the ship bay door prepares to lower. He grins and looks at Kinney and the human. "After you," he says.

[TetNak]

David nods, "I am ready!" he says, only hold a pistol at his side. He walks to the landing ramp and extends it to the ground. "Do we leave the cargo here until we know where we need to send it?"

[Hayabusa]

"Yes, we should leave it here, although I don't think that it matters. When anyone wants to take it and has enough men, we won't be an obstacle," Kinney says with grim determination. "Lets look for the Lieutenant an finish the business here. The longer the ship's waiting the more attention it'll attract."

Kinney steps down the ramp an keeps her rifle low.

[Bo]

"I agree with Kinney," says Tai as he walks down the ramp as well. It shuts behind them with a hiss. "The Juggernaut looks unassuming enough and I don't think the authorities here even think we are carrying cargo of any importance. It's best we stick together for the time being."

His head swivels around, looking for a directory, map, or at least a way out fo the landing area.
