As the exterior comes into view, you can tell that the S.S. Monte Hue is floating in mid-space while cargo transports are departing from the ship's outer hull doors. The engines begin their eternal pull against the coldness of space, propelling the ship into the active Gravitron Ring. As the ship is slung through the vast, dark plain, the captain reveals that the plan for this mission is to head to the border of the Cassandra Nebula, punch a hole in the pirate's solar blockade shielding, meet up with another Gravitron Ring that is escorted by a heavily armored Solar Tug, and proceed on towards the colony on Mercury 7. Identified as The Midway Runner Project, it is hoped that this operation is the key to keeping supply lines open, despite the enemies use of system wide shielding.
Seconds later, the ship emerges back into sight from the high speed journey through the light tunnel, only to find rubble where the meeting point was scheduled to be. Both the shield and the nebula are wrecking havoc on long range scanners, keeping them from sensing any nearby craft. And turning an otherwise easy operation into just another life-or-death mission.
