Pursue The Past: Samair In Argos: Book 1 - Plot & Excerpts
Tamara said happily as her guns peppered the engines of one of the Hecate fighters. “Take that!” The Centurion fighter turned and flew off, heading back for the freighter. Tamara checked her sensors and looked through the cockpit, trying to find the Grania Estelle. “There you are,” she said. The ship had broken orbit and was heading out. They were only about a hundred thousand kilometers from their starting position, but they were apparently flying at top speed. It would be almost three days before they could climb back out of the gravity well and reach the hyper limit, but the fighters would not pursue them that far. Their fuel and life support levels would not last anywhere near that long. But then, neither would hers, especially with the damage. She needed to end this. Angling around, she tore after the ship and its two attackers. An alert began flashing on her display, indicating fuel status. Thirty-one percent and falling. She needed to end this quickly. At the rate the Perdition was burning through fuel because of her maneuvers and with the leak in the tanks, she would be out of the fight in less than ten minutes. She keyed the comms. “Grania Estelle, this is Em-One. I’m having serious fuel problems. I have only about nine minutes of fight left in me. I’m moving in to engage the remaining two fighters. Continue your course to exit the system, but please get a shuttle prepped and ready to fly to tractor me back in.”
