"Base to Captain Star-trooper, Base to Captain Star-trooper. Captain Star-trooper."4

"Captain Star-trooper. Come in Captain Star-trooper. Where are you?" 5

"Captain Star-trooper of the first command. This is an urgent message. We are tracking an unidentified object and it is heading straight for you. You need to leave immediately. Hurry!"6

His helmets' glass had mystified over the last quarter of hour or so in panic. His face was flushed and as a a trickle of frustration filled sweat descended down his brow, he squinted to keep his site clear.10

"Come in Captain" said the same voice for the eighth message but the captain could not reply, "In the name of god man, come in Captain!" - Johnson never was a patient man and Star-trooper could tell he was probably more flustered than him.11

Time after time the captain pressed the speaker button with his padded glove over and over again but to no avail the button would not work. He had so many questions to ask. He needed to ask the coordinates of the object so he new where to travel to to get out of its way. 12

Tick, Tick...tick. The captains time was ticking away, "WHAT ARE THE COORDINATES" he yelled but, depressingly, he knew that his yells were no use. He sat and hoped, with his hand on the energy accelerator lever, that Johnson would just spit out the coordinates but he was too busy saying 'Come in, come in, come in'.13

The captain, not knowing how far away the object was, gripped firmly the lever and pulled in back smoothly so that the small spacecraft - Spacetrekker 2000 - jetted off from its previous location... and it did.14

The man turned his head and looked out the side suplex window - there was an unnatural light coming from far to the East of the Garken star system. He squinted and through the little gap through his lids he viewed what was to be a monster impact on the entire start system. 'Dang' he thought mildly, 'And to think Johnson cant say to leave a start system.15

He pressed a button on the left side of his helmet where a built in communication device was positioned. "Coordination's" he spoke while holding down the button.16

"Sector C4 of the Arden system, Sir" came the feminine voice he had chosen out to be his robot speaker.17

Star-trooper nodded his head slightly, his neck length hair rubbing against the cushioning of the helm, "Dana, is this ship's communications down completely?" he waited for a reply.18

"No and yes. That being we can hear incoming messages but they can not hear ours"19

"Drat" he said swiping the air with his fist, "Oh, well program the coordinates into the computer in front of me for the Graxion Space Station"20

"Is that all Sir?" 21

"Not quite, Tell the commanding general to fire Johnson's asss"22
