[Naked Crook]

Hayes was very displeased with the fact that Kolya had managed to slip away. He remained silent, with his hands behind his back. Temple: I can track the destination solution if you wish? Hayes: Don't bother...by the time we calculate that...he will of made a second jump, and we will of lost him. I am not going to chase ghosts. Hayes paused. Hayes: Status of The Trust Ships? Temple: The rest of their fleet has been destroyed...with exception to one ship...a Trust Destroyer. it is adrift. Scans show that the ship is still intact, but has lost all of its main power due to severed power conduits. Technically...we could board that ship... Hayes: Interesting proposal... Hayes paused. Hayes: Inform the fleet not to destroy that final ship...but rather keep an eye on it. I think we should pay them a little visit...see whats going on inside the Trust's data networks. Hayes turned and sat down in his command chair. HAWK: Sir...The Goldbane and The Draco have taken significant damage. My scans show that The Goldbane might be salvageable...but the Draco...if we do not act immediately...Tylan's next ship might as well be called The Third Chance... Hayes rubbed his head. He sighed. Hayes: What do we need to do? HAWK: Engineering teams...thats a good start. Hayes: Prep combat engineers...lets see if we can save The Draco.
