Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva quietly walked into the room and silently positioned herself behind some cargo containers. So far so good nobody noticed her coming in to the hanger, now all she had to do was find a fighter to escape in. The young woman looked over her options. Sadly one of the three ships was already eliminated as it engine seemed to dismantled for repairs. That left the just the other fighter and the freighter. Sadly there appeared to at least four people working on the engine of that fighter and what appeared to be another person up in the control tower. It was not going to be easy to get over to the other fighter.
However next to her was a cargo droid, and it gave the agent an idea. If she could reprogram the droid maybe she could get it to drop some of the cargo containers over near the freighter. Maybe one with her in it. Preferably where the line of sight was blocked between her and the mechanics. Then she could run to the other fighter and make her getaway. She just had to hope it wasn't too hard to program the droid for this work.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Moving to the droid she found that loading and unloading cargo had been it's basic function and she was not trying to get it to do anything it wasn't programmed to. The biggest problem was that she was probably going to be seen once she got inside the fighter so she wouldn't be able to do a flight check.
It didn't look as if the second fighter was touched yet, maybe they had finished with it already or perhaps it had not gone through such extensive maintenance yet.
The freighter was enclosed in that she could remain ducked down and out of sight, which she could do with the fighter but since she had to close the canopy someone would certainly hear it hissing to a close.
Carefully she would have to turn a container on it's side to get in and out of it with ease, no problem there as there was none programming the droid. She just had to program what cargo to pick up and where to drop it after all, simple enough were she really didn't need much in the way of technical skills.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva quickly looked at the droid and found that it was designed to be simply load the cargo it was tasked to load and unload it at the destination selected. Seemed easy enough but then there was complications. From this angle it was clear that the the second fighter was completely exposed and there would be no way of telling if it was functional without being seen. That was disappointing in that meant the freighter was the only real choice.
She quickly set up the droid to deliver some of the cargo boxes to the freighter. After it moves the first box of cargo she would climb into the second box so she could be moved with luck any attention would be diverted to the droid briefly. Once she was brought abord in the second container, she could get and take a look at the ship on the inside while the droid went for the third crate. If everything went well she would out of the hanger in no time.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
The droid went to work programmed to load the freighter it took the first empty container to the freighter, Blue's ship. Moving to the rear of it the droid sends a signal to the ship to open up the rear hatch of the ship as it moves into the cargo hold and dumps the first container.
The sound of the droid goes unnoticed by the men at first who are busy with the ship though when it's part way to the ship the second time around it is seen by one of the men.
“What the hell?”
“Why's it loading Blue's ship?”
“It's old, it probably has a glitch ...”
She hears. She also hears one of the men approaching as the container is dumped and the droid leaves the freighter to get a third container though before it gets there it is stopped and checked out after being shut down allowing Minerva to make her way into the cock pit. The view screen of the ship faces the hanger doors though the commotion with the droid is toward the rear of her's so she is unable to follow that.
She is able to check out the ship and finds that everything is in order save for some maintenance to a maneuverability fin the craft will do, though it will list to the left making it hard to make quick star board turns with it.
She also sees coordinates programmed in the Nav Computer already, familiar enough as to denote that the ship is preparing to go to Shokushu though there are vector coordinates for the planet too as it is clear that the ship wishes to arrive at a specific point near the planet but if there were a crooked agent did these lead to where she was stationed?

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva could hear the men's concerns as the droid carried her container over to the ship. She was afraid it would that the droid would get their attention as it began to move the containers over to the ship's cargo hold. Fortunately for the redhead, the men did begin to go check out what was going on until her container had already been placed on board and the droid had started back to get the last container.
The agent slowly and stealthily climbed out of the container as she looked back out the cargo bay. About halfway to the last container a few of the men had stopped the droid and were checking out why it had seemingly activated on its own. She hoped that they would not figure out that she had activated it until it was too late. Minerva quietly made her way to the cockpit to see what she could do.
She got up to the cokcpit and took a seat as she checked over the controls. The agent could see that the ship had some maintenance issues, but nothing that would prevent it from flying though. Furthermore there was already programmed with coordinates to take it to Shokushu and another planet nearby. The agent would file that information for later though as she now had to escape. The redhead began to close the the ship's cargo bay as she hit the button that would open the hanger door.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
The men seemed to distracted with the droid to notice the cargo bay doors closing and the guy in flight control thought noting of it. One of the men in the hanger must have closed it. That was when the hanger doors began to open and he contacted the men in the hanger as he had nothing filled with anyone leaving. Assured it was no one down in the hanger the men rushed to the ship that they were lock out of. She fired up the engines and got out of the hanger or at least that was her plan though the hanger doors had slide opened part way they were closing again as the man in flight control over rode the commands to the door.
But there was only one chance at this, there wasn't any do overs her and she gunned it, the ship straining as she pushed it. The gap with the doors steadily closing though she managed to shoot through then with less than two meters to spare either side.
The ship was fast, fortunately not as fast as …
The thought hardly formed as the hanger doors opened again. Their was a shield their that let particles and matter pass through but keep the environments in check.
… fighter.
Out of the hanger shot a single fighter, for now she had managed to get some distance on it though she was thankful that the second fighter was disabled though she perhaps had two or three minutes before the fighter closed in on her. Her comm panel lighting up as the pilot of the other vessel was contacting her,
“CIRCLE ABOUT AND RETURN TO THE HANGER OR I WILL BE FORCED TO FIRE ON YOU.”
The voice crackled over the intercom as the fighter closed.
The shields and weapons on this thing were functioning though like the fighter she only had forward facing ones.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva gunned the ship as fast as she attempted to escape out of the hanger, however being a shuttle it sluggishly came up to the speed. For a moment it did not looked like the agent was going to be get be caught as the hanger doors began to close. However, the ship managed to make it out of the hanger before the doors slammed shut. The red head was once again a free woman as began to make her way from the base.
However, it was not for long. Even as the base began to disappear behind her, she could see the hanger doors sliding open. In an instant the shuttle's radar told the red head her worst fears, the second fighter apparently had been working all along. It came screaming towards the slower moving shuttle as she tried to escape. Already things looked bad. Athena's only guns faced forward and not towards the enemy fighter coming up behind her. Worse her ship would have trouble turning towards the star board which meant half the maneuvers were no longer available to her.
It was then that the fighter demanded her surrender. The agent of course had no want to be capture again so she had to come up with a plan and quickly. The young woman noticed the shuttle did have decent shields. Quickly the agent came up with a plan. She banked the shuttle slowly to the starboard. The redhead wanted to make it look like she did understand the problems the shuttle was having. She would attempt to lure the enemy fighter in then turn hard to port in hopes of getting the fighter to overshoot her and enable her to catching the fighter by surprise.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
The ploy might not have worked if it were one of the actual pilots in the ship but out of necessity it had been one of the mechanics that had flight training that took the fighter so she was in luck not to be dealing with an experience fighter pilot.
With his own guns to the front a typical fighter would have cut the throttle down to keep her within the sights of his weapons and while the tech did cut his throttle a bit intending not to over shoot her what did he know, he was the guy that just fixed the ships and had no real experience flying them.
He misjudges how fast the fighter actually is as the shuttle struggles with the turn. Good this was going to be easy though he cuts speed too late and doesn't slow enough allowing the freighter to snap off in port side direction.
The targeting computers come on allowing her to snap off a few shots.
The fighters are quite maneuverable and even the tech evades a few of them but not having the combat experience that Minerva has he is no match for her even though his vessel is the quicker and better armed of the two.
A shot washes over his shields overwhelming them. A second shot ignites the ship in a red fireball that Minerva takes out. There is no other immediate challenge to her escaping. The base has but one other ship, though there is her's on the planet it will take them some time to reach it if they so think about it and by then she should be long gone.
The next thing she had to determine was here next move. As her captors were so kind to point out it would be a few days before she would be able to reach other agents but Blue and Fafner probably seeing that neither were one the base had be expecting to make it to that rendez-vous the following day and thus Shokushu was within a day from here … no, that didn't seem right. By her estimations it should be closer to the base but still a few days out though it wasn't until then that she realized that the hyperdrive on this ship was quite … expedient … it was a bit of alien tech she did not quite understand though it was quick, extremely quick and can cut times to a quarter of their duration of there abouts.
A three day trip would be just over a day … now she had options. She could indeed make it back though Blue had to have been close if his rendez-vous was close, if fact even with the speed of this ship he would have to have left soon unless he pushed the drives a little to coax even more speed out of them.
So going back for help, loading the ship with agents and going back was probably out, Blue would be gone by then. She could go to the rendez-vous though. They might think it was Blue until communications were open any way and her sister was on the list for extraction and being turned over to Blue. She still had yet to determine why though, why these 4 or 5 girls? Why attempt to acquire them outside of the normal time for it? Why risk pissing off the campus in doing so? These were questions she did not have answers to.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva was fortunate that the technician was not a skilled pilot and he passed shot right by the shuttle when she showed down and cut back the other way. Now the redhead had turned from prey to predator as she lined up the shot on the fighter.
Almost instantly she got a lock on the fighter and began to fire upon it. She fired a burst into the fighter, as so saw the first few shots impact against the fighters rear shields. The agent fired a second burst which not only penetrated the shields but turned the fighter into a ball of fire.
The agent breathed a sigh of relief as she checked to see if there was any other spacecraft behind her. There was none, it looked like that the other fighter was out of action. The only thing they could use was Minerva's own Lancer, but it was parked pretty far away and there would be no way they could get to it before she had made her escape.
So now she could focus on what to do next. Unfortunately any help was a few days away, so she could not rely on any back up. The young woman then check the navigation computer which said that the rendezvous was only a day away. The agent did a double check as she checked that number again. She was nowhere close to Shokushu or the rendezvous It was only then that redhead realized that the ship she had taken was using some sort of advanced hyperdrive. This would mean she could that she would have several options, though some of them was not so good.
She could probably go back for help, but their was still no way they would get back before the Blue had taken his cargo and gone. Her best would be to go to the rendezvous and pretend to be Blue. Whoever was there wouldn't suspect anything until it was too late and Minerva was upon them.
That probably was the best course of action, though the redhead was not sure why that her sister was on that list. Or why the other four girls were on the list. She probably would not know until she taken the ship. For now, the agent would just have to set course for the rendezvous to find out.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
This of course was boring. She had thought that things would be rather different as an agent though thus far her inexperience had her doing those sorts of things that no other agent enjoyed, such as this.
She wasn't all that great at piloting. She knew the manual inside and out though she was inexperienced with it. The only thing was just to kick back and relax. By the time something excited was slated at Shokushu she would be moved yet again.
A soft sigh escaped her lips, she was hoping to be out there looking for Vanessa. For now though all she was able to do was pass the time. At first she had past the time reading but there were only so many technical manuals she could read.
Now it was time for the dossier file she had “borrowed” while it was the photo she took from the file and not the file itself that she had been looking at while she was pleasuring herself, her flight suit open, her fingers pressing inside her as she tipped her head back, eyes closed.
“Oh, fuck Minerva ...”
And it was then that the ship popped into real space, she nearly fell from her seat in surprise. What the hell! She was a blur of movement zipping the suit back up, running the sensor scans and powering up her shields if this thing was powered up to attack.
Then the comm system would hail the unidentified craft in a second, she was still straightening herself out.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva's borrowed ship eventually jumped into normal space. It took a moment for the redhead to get her bearings as now she was no longer in hyperspace.
The agent was immediately began looking at the instrument panel first to make sure that she had arrived at the right spot. She normally would not be worried about such things, but it was alien craft and the redhead was still trying to get use to controls.
The sensors immediately reported that another ship was already at the rendezvous point waiting for her. Minerva looked up to see the ship, and it was clearly of ADD design.
For now, the agent did not want to blow her cover. She would simply slowly move the ship up along side the ADD craft. Just in case it was the mole that had betrayed the ADD, Minerva wanted to wait until the last moment to reveal herself.
At least her approach would not cause her fellow agent to shoot on her.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
So what was the procedure on this? She wasted a bit of time straightening her attire out and stuffing the photo back into a jacket pocket before running the sensor scans over the alien craft. Weapons and shields had not come up yet, which meant that they were not showing signs of hostility yet. Still she had not recognized the alien craft and she was in the know about the latest tech so this had to be something new.
She powered up her shields and weapons not taking a chance them thumbed her comm panel.
“Unidentified vessel, this is Sergeant Luna Umbarge. You are in violation or Article Seven, Paragraph Four ...” blah blah blah. She doubted that there was an issue here, probably some merchant that went off course.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva was surprised to the find Luna currently manning the patrol ship. What was she doing here. Either way with the shields and weapons it was clear that the last thing she was expecting was the shuttle that the redhead had stolen. It appeared the former researcher was not going to any chances.
Immeidately, Minerva began looking for the comms on her craft.
Luna? This is Lieutenant Minerva Rocha. What are you doing out here? Never mind I need to talk to you.

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
“Well I umm …” she began though she's told it was not important. Minerva wants to speak with her and that's all that matters though she doesn't quiet get out that she's filling in she powers down the shields and weapons though with the weapons she actually fire first. Thankfully they did not establish a lock as Luna never manned them, just powered them up and the blast fires harmlessly into space.
“I'm so sorry! The manuals all backwards that wasn't suppose to – right, speak with. Got it.”
Since they were speaking already Luna assumes face to face for some reason and allows the better pilot to dock with her ship. While she waits she sets up a stun grenade near the docking hatch, conceals a remote for it in her hand and takes up a defensive position behind a bulk head. Just in case that this is some sort of trap and aliens captured her idol, well someone had to rescue her even though she wasn't the best of shots and needed more practice at the range surprise should help her out as she keeps the rifle trained on the door until she is certain that Minerva isn't in duress.
She comes out then, her rifle tilted away. “You wanted to talk? What's going on?”

Re: Blue (for Minerva)
Minerva could see the look on Luna on her face as she struggled with the procedures that the agents had to deal with in the fields. Suddenly a shot fired Luna's shuttlecraft but it went harmlessly into the space. The new agent immediately apologized.
Look just stay there and I will dock with you.
Minerva soon docked her stolen shuttle with the Luna's craft. The redhead was a bit embarrassed about the outfit she was wearing, but she really didn't have anything else to wear at the moment. The agent stepped through the hatch and right into the sights of the brunette. For a moment, Minerva was Luna was going to do, but the newly minted agent put her gun down once she realized that Minerva was alone and not being forced to meet her.
Well, I was wondering if you are with anyone else or were sent her by anyone.
