044 – Big Toys

Finally a shot of the garage…

Security Agent Captain Cassandra Quinn is on assignment to the mining outpost Luna Seven amid rumors of pirates near the outpost. On her approach to the complex, she saw something moving around on the surface of the moon that shouldn’t have been. During her attempts to verify her visual sighting, a mysterious ship blasted her out of the sky. Her story starts HERE.

Meanwhile, miner Simon Tripline is waking up and getting ready for his day while the morning news talks of Terraluna Universal’s plans to project their logo onto the moon, which has drawn protests. The news also mentions rumors of piracy surrounding the disappearance of a shipment of ore from Luna Seven. As Simon walks to work, he sees something strange through a porthole. Did he really see it? Or were his eyes playing tricks on him?

Nothing like a bit of coffee to clear the senses, but even that brings an irritant in the form of Vin Sinclair, who is evidently one of Luna Seven’s top performers on the drill. But is there a dark secret to his success? Simon’s story starts HERE.

For a run-down on all the characters, see the NEW READERS page.
