Yvonne Legrand
I was trapped the minute I boarded this
vessel! I should have known! Alexa was a powerful man in his youth
and power does not come to idiots. Though you can wipe a mind of it's
memories, hopes and dreams, removing the spark of brilliance is not
an easy affair. “Legrand, what do you want us to do? Should we open
fire?” “You don't stand a chance now that he has you fully
tackled Michel, signal the fleet, they aren't but a minute away.”
“But Captain, what about you?” “I am done, the ship is your's
Michel.” I transmitted through my implant as I raised my blaster to
the bottom of my chin. Michel was a competent second in command, he
would know what to do. Then I pulled the trigger.

I removed oxygen from the room's life
support mixture and just as she started to feel the effects Yvonne
lifted her blaster and blew her head into dust. With that blast the
only clue to my life before was obliterated, scattered across my ship
in atomic form. My suit slowly began to return to it's normal state
as I cursed to myself for not acting sooner, nearly forgetting to
return the room's atmospheric settings to normal. I stumbled back
towards my capsule as the ship informed me of scans showing more
federation vessels in warp to our location. Fourteen AU and closing
fast. Hostile contact in thirty seven seconds. I ordered my ship to
align out to the nearest celestial as Yvonne's vessel sprung to life,
unleashing a vicious salvo of blaster fire scrambling my ship's warp
drive.
Thankfully he'd acted too soon, had he
waited longer he might have survived long enough for his fleet to
arrive. A single volley put that ship to rest among the stars as I
climbed into my capsule. Immersed in fluid but not yet connected I
forced the ship into warp against multiple safety warnings.
