PBF 6.08 \"Twisted Blade\"
\"I understand, Vice Admiral Spokes. I\'ll do what I can to fill in Xtremegene\'s shoes, I\'m affraid things maybe a wreck for a while though.\" Jay said with a hint of doubt. \"It\'s going to be tough at this point in our campaign.\"
\"Well, we don\'t have much choice do we, Collins? Your new priority is to appoint a new Executive Officer, and get through this campaign alive. Spokes out.\"
Rear Admiral Jay \"Vender\" Collins, was now officially the PBF Commanding Officer.

\"So I see you have plenty of experience, but understand..\" Jay paused, thinking over how well the interview was going for the next XO, \"If you can\'t put up, don\'t stand up. We\'re in the middle of some very tough times.\"
Brigadier General Joshua Hawkins stood up. \"Well then, Sir, you have my answer. It\'s my intention to do what I can for this fleet.\"
\"Very well.\" Jay handed him a datapad. \"These are your new orders, listed by priority. Congratulations.\"
\"Thank you, Sir. I\'ll begin immediately.\" Hawkins saluted, Jay returned it, he spun and walked out.
Jay let a breath of air out. \"Well, that\'s covered.. the road to relief is getting near. Xtreme, wherever you are, we won\'t let you down.\"
- - -
Jay circled the command deck of the McGrath, when they came out of hyperspace. \"Now we\'ll just wait for the Windstorm so I can..\"
Helmsman screamed \"Sir! Enemy frigate dead ahead! Scans suggest it to be Imperial. Also picking up two Corvettes on both our flanks!!\"
Jay jumped to a tactical readout. \"Launch our fighters, continue ahead. When the Windstorm gets here, tell them to launch Sabre immediately and attack that frigate! Has it been identified yet?\"
\"Yes Sir, Nebulan-B \'Dark Blade\', Sir.\"
\"Well, the Dark Blade is going to have front row seats to its demise. Tell our fighters to strafe those Corvettes, keep them off our backs. Keep our laser turrets charged and firing.\"
Jay turned and looked at the time. \"Better be on time, Windstorm. Otherwise this will be the shortest command in history..well..besides..death.\"
