As you enter your gunnery pod, you can't help but wonder what your new ship and crew members are going to be like. After all, you were an excellent member for your old team. You knew what to expect of them and vice versa. But now, you can't help but wonder if your ready for this. So soon. And to change teams during such a dangerous mission, too. But, there last weapon officer lost his life on the last mission and they desperately needed a new officer to replace him. And your records were chosen by this captain as the best choice available. But still, you just can't help but wonder whether or not you can adapt to this team so quickly. But no time now to think and ponder. Because, you've got a ship to protect and a job to do.
As you close the hatch of the pod and settle into your seat, SAL lifts off the cargo bay floor and thrusts the gunnery pod into place aboard the S.S. Monte Hue. A message comes across the communication's channel from the flight controller saying, "PSI 5 shipper Monte Hue. You have permission for launch. Over." Then, a siren sounds as the bay begins the decompression cycle. Seconds later, the hanger doors slide open and the ship begins propel forward. Once cleared of the bay, the ship heads for The Gravitron Ring, on course for the colony Preblieux, located in quadrant 87. After clearing the light tunnel, you punch the usual hole in the field and fly through it. The reception on the other side is not what you were expecting.
