METEOR STORM

Excerpt from the "Book of the Falurian Empire".

"Meteor Alert, Meteor Alert." The speaker grill grates onto
the command deck of the Thalcian Spacer forcing me to look
up from the twinkle of lights on the console in front of me.
I curse under my breath. My calculations are almost
complete. I check the scanner, there is something not right
about the formation of the Meteors. Fear creeps over my body
like a Balcoan Slimer; that meteor storm is being driven at
me ...

I am in this sector investigating the find of an ancient
artifact, of the People of Sphere, locked in a
Trans-dimensional field. I was almost ready to break it from
the Field when the Meteor storm arrived. I swing into the
attack chair, strap myself in ready for some fast
manoeuvres. Chunks of rock bombard me from all directions,
my hands fly over the controls as I shift the Spacer to fire
at the nearest rock. I gasp in surprise; the rock has a
Photo-Thrust unit built into it. Space burns brightly before
me as the beam from my X-ray laser slices into the rock,
shattering it into pieces.

Then I see the reason behind the storm: Xxkraan Raiders, the
aliens from Andromeda seeking dominance over the Falurian
Empire. The saucer of a Xxkraan Raider twists at me, guiding
the storm of Meteors at me.

I fire, the X-ray beam slits open the saucer, it explodes in
a dazzling pyrotechnic display. Immediately I am surrounded
by a horde of meteors seeking to grind my Thalcian Spacer to
nothing. I jab the hyperspace button. Reality twists in on
itself, for a moment my body is turned inside out, then I'm
back in Real Space ...

The meteors move back at me, my teeth clench as I send more
destruction lancing out from my X-ray laser ...

A Xxkraan Raider appears in the gap between the jagged
rocks, I turn and fire ...

I thrust at another cluster of rocks, distant stars reflect
from the metal of the Photo-Thrust units embedded in the
meteors. I fire again, the Xxkraan must not gain the
knowledge left by the enigmatic, long dead People of Sphere
... The rocks converge then diverge around me, I spread a
network of X-ray beams round my Spacer. A Saucer moves in ...

Debris tumbles about as I fight for survival, and for the
knowledge of the "People of Sphere" ...
