Star Raiders: The Adventures of Saber Raine Page #2

Synopsis: Rocket ships, Rayguns, and Robots abound in this heart-pounding tale where the stellar adventurer Saber Raine is hired to guide three elite soldiers on a rescue mission to recover a prince and princess who have been abducted from their home world. The trail leads Saber and his allies to a planet deep within uncharted space that is inhabited by strange mutated creatures, leech-like desert marauders, renegade mercenaries, alien outcasts, and cybernetically enhanced soldiers that guard mysterious ruins of an empire long forgotten. Deep within the ruins, Sinjin, a sinister overlord freed from a cryogenic chamber that was his prison for many centuries, is now in league with the Quintari, a malevolent insectoid race known throughout the galaxy as the scourge. In possession of a powerful new energy source, Sinjin plots his revenge on the descendants of those who betrayed him in the past. Can our heroes complete their rescue mission and stop Sinijin from unleashing his fury on the universe? Fi

On this planet, you always have backup.

Saber Raine.

In the flesh.

I'm surprised to see you...

...alive.

Hello.

What have we here?

Aresians.

Traveling in some elite circles, I see.

Yeah, we're old pals.

That's good, cause you

haven't got many 'round here.

We're looking for some friends.

I thought maybe you could help.

This a bounty?

'Cause if I gotta betray one

of my friends, it's gonna cost more.

Visitors. They're...

Brought against their will.

Slavers, maybe. There's been

an increase in traffic lately.

A Denarian you might remember.

Lorthos?

Known in this part of the galaxy

as the slave master.

Lorthos is a thug!

Preys on unarmed vessels

and isolated encampments.

- We're trying to find...

- Find other Aresians.

And we'd appreciate

any information you can provide.

Pretty. But you'll have to sweeten the pot.

Say...

...one power cylinder.

I've heard many tales in my line of work...

...and the stories

of the Aresian power cylinder...

...have always intrigued me.

Just stories.

Then I'm afraid I can't help you.

You better know something.

I think...

...your friends...

...are now my friends.

I don't know anything about any captives.

Always have backup.

But there has been a lot of activity

in the great ruins lately.

Ships seen flying in that direction.

Annelids being slaughtered in the surrounding

out lands by organized forces.

Why is that important?

There's a lot of strange creatures on Goros.

Different warring factions.

They all have one thing in common.

They all stay clear of the ruins.

Why?

'Cause anything that goes in there,

doesn't usually come out.

With a few exceptions.

I haven't actually been

to the ruins per se...

...but I've seen them from a distance.

It's the perfect place

to keep someone prisoner.

Then that's our destination.

It's not safe to travel at night.

You can stay here till morning.

I think we'll stick to the schedule.

Thanks, Jax.

I'm sorry about your...

...rock guy.

It's okay. I have more in the mines.

If you survive this...

...I expect intel.

It'll cost ya.

Let's go.

Take it easy, Jax.

She's gone.

Easy.

Name's Kor'ock, I'm a transport pilot.

Where are we? What planet?

What planet? Goros Prime.

What do you know of our captors?

Not much.

I was flying near the outland mires,

my ship lost power, crash landed.

Had four on board, only two survived.

Where are the other survivors?

I don't know, we were separated. And you?

Unclear.

My sister and I were on Ares...

...our homeworld.

And then we woke up here.

Prisoners.

You look strangely calm!

Universe has a plan for everyone, kid.

I'm just waiting to see

what it has planned for me.

The power cylinder,

it's a mana stone, isn't it?

And you're not concerned

with giving one to Jax?

A necessary action.

Our mission is paramount.

Besides, it's a very unstable substance.

Are you saying my friend

could blow himself up?

- Now let me ask you something.

- Alright.

Tell me why you betrayed your people.

- Excuse me?

- You seem like a man of honor.

So there must be a reason

why you assisted the Saurians.

One Saurian.

Crotalus.

I had to act or she would have died.

I couldn't have that on my conscience.

Crotalus gave me information that...

...let our forces penetrate

their defenses on Erobus Two.

She's the reason we won the war.

My government...

...didn't want the rest of the galaxy to

know that we couldn't do it on our own...

...so they wanted her silenced.

And you turned on your own to protect her.

Wrong is wrong, Fade.

She was a hero.

We've rested long enough.

Control, we're on the move.

Control? Respond.

We must've entered the mire.

Your power sources won't work here.

Guess my gas propelled projectiles

don't look so bad now, do they?

Just saying.

You knew this would happen?

This area is strange on tech.

That's why I gave you the coordinates I did.

Ship coming down here, it'd be bad.

But it's the only way to the ruins.

Our ships are prepared. Why must we wait?

So you find my hospitality...

...is inadequate?

I find my thirst for revenge unquenched.

The generator is nearly complete...

...but the power source remains unstable.

The equation must be precise.

He says, you should let

his hive interrogate the prisoners.

They will succeed where you have failed.

And if he were to perish?

No...

...by the time the generator

is operational...

...I will have what I need from him.

And your ships will have the power...

...to unleash my wrath...

...across the universe!

We are an alliance.

We do not serve you!

I have cleared a path through the mires...

...provided you with subjects to modify.

You boast of a once great empire.

So far I am unimpressed!

He is correct.

You may have initiated this alliance...

...but we have provided

all the raw materials...

...and the technology.

And the technology.

You have such little minds.

Each of your races have been defeated...

...by those you attempted to conquer.

What I offer...

...is beyond your comprehension.

An unbeliever.

A demonstration is required.

It is difficult to kill that

which does not truly live.

My construct is not powered by science.

It's powered by the mind.

Alive because...

...I will it into existence!

So you would kill me as a show of your power?

No, killing you would be pointless.

Return to your vessels,

and continue your preparations.

Go! Go!

Commander Voss, please respond.

Scheduled check in time has elapsed.

Recovery protocol one initiating.

- Who are... who are you?

- We're the cavalry.

My legs, they're going numb.

I think it was some sort of toxin.

We did not need to engage

these creatures at close range.

You could've dispatched them from a distance!

The noise would've brought more.

We're lucky this was a small band.

We need to move out.

Commander!

Father.

You must finish the mission. Find the heirs!

We'll find them together.

No.

Fade, we have to go.

Fade.

Now.

We make our stand here.

Always gotta be the hard way.

Always have backup.

Caliope!

- I was strong.

- I know you were.

It's okay, he's a friend.

We have no friends here.

Alright. I'll leave you two alone.

I'm sorry, they're doing this

to you to get to me.

No matter what they do,

you cannot give them what they seek.

We will find a way out of here,

and get back home.

And we will return to this planet

with a vengeance.

Tyr...

...you were the only one Father entrusted

the secret to before his illness...

...you must get back home!

You must lead our people.

I can't let them put

their hands on you again.

I don't matter!

- You've always been so strong.

- We must fight to protect what is ours.

I know Father never said it,

but he is proud of you.

Your passion for xeno archeology...

...your drive to understanding

a greater universe.

A mind like yours cannot be lost.

You do matter.

I will give them what they want.

In return for your safe passage back to Ares.

- You will lead in my stead.

- Tyr, no.
