Entry 6

Well it seems like yahren have passed, yet only days have actually went by. You know how it gets, time begins to drag on, centar become centon, days become weeks, weeks become Yahren. Providence led us to the Ganymede, or was it Providence? Sometimes I can never tell.

Chapter 6: Providence

     "By your command." The chair raised high above the floor swivelled around "Speak Centurion." "We have located the freighter called Ganymede." "Has the Patrol destroyed it?" "Negative, our patrol was destroyed, by Colonial Vipers." The red dots that served as Lucifers eyes sped up slightly, his mind racing since when is a Freighter protected by Colonial Vipers, he asked himself over and over again. The Silver armored Centurion stood below waiting for his orders.

     "Launch 3 Patrols to dispatch the ganymede, report back when the mission has been accomplished." "By your Command," The Centurion turned and left.

     Lucifer turned and activated the panel at his fingertips, from the floor of his pedastal, a small screen rose after a few minutes a face appeared on it. "By your Command." Lucifer waited, after a few centar the figure turned, "Speak Lucifer, 212" "We have located the Ganymede and are in the process of destroying it. No further contact with any colonial ships." "Good Lucifer 212, Report to Caprica, you will pick up and transport the Traitor Baltar to me immediatly." "By your Command Imperious Leader." The screen went blank.

     "Captain Train, alow me to present my Flight mates, these are Lt's Orion, Triton, Travis, and Oneais." "Welcome to the Ganymede, Captain, Lt's. Make yourself at home, such as it is." "Captin, anything is better than those cockpits." "Orion right? Well unless you are leaving soon you don't have to worry about that." Rainer looked around the small bridge, "Never been on a freighter before, but I am surprised you have a decent landing bay." "Trane Laughed thats because we are a modified ship. We serve as a transport and repair facility for the Battlestars. At least we did untill the armistice was initiated. Right now we have a skeleton crew."

     "What brings you out this way? You are a long way from normal shipping lanes." "Ahhh, Captain, We are awaiting the Posiedon. We have a shipment of Vipers and Asps for them." Travis looked up, "The Posiedon? Sorry Captain, she was destroyed at Cimtar." Trane let out a deep breath. "That explains why they are late getting here." Trane turned to his second officer, "Open Alpha channel, find out who is out there and set course back for the Colonies." "Yes sir." "Captian?" Trane turned to look at the Ensign who just arrived on the Bridge. "Yes, Ensign?" "I have the Damage report on the Vipers. All of the ships need reapir, However Orions ship needs a new Gyro-Capacitor, the way it is rigged now it could blow up if we try to lanuch it." "Thanks Ensign...." "Captain, the Second officers voice rang out over the bridge, his tone showing his anxiety. "What is it?" "Cylons." "Trane where did you say those Vipers were?" Trane smiled at Rainer, "Cargo bay 4, Ensign show these gentleman the way."
