Before anyone asks, this isn't meant to compete or otherwise mess with workerdrones similar topic. This is more a different viewpoint with a different character.
"... Ugh... My fucking head..."
I looked around, I was still in my hotel room. The same stinking room I've been renting for the past three months, life's been hard since I was discharged from the confederation navy. And the days kept getting harder, and it was all because of them...I sat up from my bed, reaching into my jacket and pulling out my old notepad. I flipped trough to a marked page, it was time... I was gonna get my revenge on those confed bastards for ruining my life. I checked for my old laser pistol, it had served me well the 3 years I flew for the confeds. I had even managed to kill a Kilrathi stowaway once while serving on a Drayman, stupid bastard thought I'd be an easy target. Can't think much now though, blasted his furry head off from the neck.I walked out to the street... Basin... I've been here since I was discharged, it looks fine... On the outside. Deep down though, it's just another shithole with a pretty face. I'd been stuck due to the war going on, not that many people are willing to transport Ex-confeds in times like this. Anyway... It was time to finnally hunt these bastards down. I know a few of them had been through here, I saw them...I threw the door open, half of the patrons didn't even care. I walked over to the barman and slammed a picture of the man I was looking for and a cred chit."First Lieutenant Warren. You've seen him?"
He looked at me confused. "S-sorry lady.. I havnt seen no one like that, why don you just sit yerself down an have a-"
I leveled my laser at the inbred moron, his eyes widening to saucers. He had to know I was serious with him by now."Are you gonna tell me where he is? I saw him the other day, he passed trough here. So you better talk before I paint your bar with your face."
His lip quivered, he may of been dumb as fuck but I doubt he wanted to die."O-okay... He left for some.. Pleasure planet or something! Said he was gonna stay there for a while! Pl-"
My laser pistol discharged... Turning the barmans face to mush, I must of loosened the trigger too much... I thought quickly, turning around and holding my pistol up."All right, any of you pukes know where I can Find Lieutenant warren? Better speak up before I just start picking people to shoot."
Everyone was silent... Up until someone mentioned a name... Can't remember it anymore, but it was in this system.
I walked out of the bar without another word. Now I had to find a ship... I had a friend with a ship... Time to take it.I found her in the shipyard, buying parts for her beloved Tarsus, her only lifeline being she was a privateer."Zola, I need your Tarsus. NOW."
She laughed, thought I was joking... "Really now? Can't you come up with something better than that Sofia?"
I stared at her harder, gripping my laser tighter. "Then I guess Ill take it"
"What? What are you talking ab-"
I raised my pistol and sprayed her in the face, she crumpled like a wet paper bag. The shop owner ran for it, running too fast for me to react. No matter, I was getting out of this dump.Well, it was a bucket of bolts. But it would do. Now to find Warren, and through him the rest of those confed bastards... I was gonna have my revenge. And no one was gonna stop me.As this is sort of a CYOA feel free to nudge the story around, I have a plot thought out mostly but if I get better ideas or more interesting ways to do things I'm all for it. Unlike workerdrone's character, I'm a loose cannon that would shoot someone for looking at me wrong. So this is gonna be violent, and I might reject peaceful or nice suggestions at random. So remember that.
Also to anyone that was waiting for my EO LP... I'm having some emulator issues, Ill get back to it when I fix them. Probobly in a week or so. But I will finish it, even if no one reads it.
