Chapter 1
By Jim Raynor
A federation cruiser thrusts through the void of space. 2 launching bays on the side and one in the front and countless cannons and turrets. There is no doubt that this is the true backbone of the Federation Army. "Status on all systems?" Asks the captain. "100% on all systems, sir." Replies a crewman near the back of the control room. After a few hours, klaxons alert the crew to an anti-mater beam fizzing toward the cruiser. Once it hits the shield it destroys the shield. The beam moves toward the cruisers weapon systems. The crew frantically tries to get the remaining shield down to the weapon systems. But they're too late; the beam hits the weapons and destroys the bottom hull. The beam moves towards the engines. The crew tries to get the shield up and running. The beam destroys the weapon controls. A few moments later, a drone floats to the ship. Runners go to the bridge, weapons and engines. The cruiser is under control of the mysterious force.
