Prologue Part 5-

The three men entered the room. They were dressed in what looked roughly like LSF/LPI uniform, but the darkness obscured his vision.
The man in front turned off the weak light and the room was plunged into darkness. Core thought they were going to kill him with the lights off, but in a second the room was lighted up again, far brighter than it was before, as the man turned on a different light.
Core could see more clearly now, and noticed that, yes, these were LPI uniforms, but they were ragged, stained and drained of most of their original colour.
One of the flanking goons pushed him into the swivel chair in the centre of the room. One stood behind him, the other behind the man who had turned on the light, who was obviously the leader.
The interrogator spoke. "Now. As you have almost certainly realised, you are no longer on board your ship. You were brought here, to the the prison ship Dakota. You are in the California system. Do you understand?"
"Er... yes, but-"
"You are being charged for illegal possession of Cardimine, resisting arrest, and the destruction of two Defender class fighters and the deaths of their respective pilots. Do you understand?"
"What?! I didn't destroy any Defenders! I shot at them a few times, but-"
"So you admit to attacking Liberty Police ships?"
"Yes, but-"
"Very well. You will be taken to your cell, then sent to Planet Houston for... processing. Do you understand?"
"What?! I didn't-"
"Do you understand?"
"I didn't... you can't-"
The interrogator sighed, and nodded to his goons. Core Zaire jumped out of seat and ran to the door, just in time to be punched in the stomach by a man built like a gorrilla.
Core Zaire collapsed, wheezing. The interrogator leaned over him, reached into his holster, pulled out a long tube and pressed it to his neck. A slight zap was heard, as well as a breif shriek from Core, then silence.
The interrogator stood up.
"Take him away."

-TO BE CONTINUED... WHEN I CAN BE BOTHERED TO WRITE THE NEXT PART, PROBABLY TOMMORROW, MAYBE LATER TODAY IF I CAN BE BOTHERED-

what if these people were lying to him. I mean, worn out uniforms? I doubt they are lawfull. Maybe they are criminals playing a joke on him just to have him killed when he approaches the prison station. Who knows? Maybe they are lawfull.

Main Story, Part 1 (yep, the prologue's over )

Core Zaire woke up in a dank room. He looked around, there were no windows, and he realised his clothes had been changed. He now wore a striped shirt and trousers, and was barefoot.
"Ah, you're awake."said a voice from the shadows.
Core Zaire grunted, and focused his eyes. The shadows shifted to reveal a collection of darkness, about two inches taller than he was.
"Well, welcome to the Dakota. A lifetime of maximum security fun." he had a Spanish accent.
"Who the hell are you?" asked Core, who was NOT in a good mood.
"A very difficult question. A hero, a prisoner, a Corsair or an Order terrorist, take your pick. My name's Antonio Bandez, by the way. Not that matters much anymore." He added, darkly.
"The Order?!"
"Before your time, kid." Core, who was 31, was not used to being called a kid, but more pressing matters distracted him.
"What was the Order?"
He laughed. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you, kid, put it that way."
"Try me. And stop calling me kid! My names Core Zaire!"
"Whatever, kid. Ever heard of the Nomads?"
"You kidding?! They're the reason why I became a pilot! Ever since I heard on the news how the LSF managed to defeat them-"
At this point, Antonio burst into hoarse laughter.
"So that's the story, eh? God, it's worse than I thought."
"What is?" Core didn't like the man, but couldn't help being fascinated.
"Liberty is becoming a police state kid. You think the LSF fought the nomads? Those bunch of idiots? Hah, I fought a few in my time, couldn't hit a barn door."
"Who did fight the Nomads then? You?!" It meant as a joke, but there was no laughter, just a meaningful stare from Antonio.
"Order first Officer Anteus 437, commander of the Liberty strike forces. At your service." He sneered.
"What the hell have you been smoking?!" Core was getting more confused every instant.
"Don't smoke, kid, never have. You heard of the Schultsky assasination?"
"Of course." Everyone knew.
"I organised it."
"What?! Why are you in prison then?" Core couldn't believe his ears, yet...
Bandez sighed. "The world is not a nice place. I was arrested soon afterward, and when the time came for pardoning... well, they had a factory quota to meet."
"You expect me to believe that?!"
"Well... I couldn't really care less."
"OK then, you mentioned you were a Corsair." Core was trying to poke holes in his story.
"I was, until, I was approached by one of the elders, who was working for the Order."
"I don't believe you." He didn't.
"Ah, well. I have plenty of time to convince you, don't I?"

TO BE CONTINUED...LATER. PROBABLY TOMMORROW.

Hmm.. I've been thinking 'bout my fan fiction, and I'm wondering where to take the plot from here (not taking suggestions, sorry). At the minute I'm toying with the idea of deleting the last post (I probably will). Anyways, I'll let you guys know with the next post on Friday.

OK.
I'm afraid the hourglass has run bone-dry for this thread...
I've decided to stop writing the fanfic... I just couldn't be bothered.
Well, that's it. Sorry.

Post Sat May 15, 2004 1:19 pm

You know what?
You guys should populate
Yukanojo's Server.

If I agree with you joining, meet me at manhatten and i will give you 100k credits. So, pay a visit to Yukanojo's server. Also, during the next week(10th to 16th), I will be donating my 7-8mil credits, and equipment to someone on the

server to some lucky player hanging out manahtten. I wil be around manhatten and only for 5 mins. I have kusari rare guns all the way to nomad guns and level 10 fighter shield. Don't miss out.

Sorry... just don't want to write it anymore, too much of a commitment.
There'll be other fan fiction. Write your own if you want.
