Almost three pages today, which means that Chapter 11 is finished - not the story itself, though. I decided to split the chapter in two because it was so depressingly long, so I got a tiny bit of ego boost for finishing the first half. *g*
Excerpt:
“Our ETA is…” Stone consulted his invisible navigator, “in roughly forty-two minutes. Stay where you are and try looking for Uhura, using the scanners. Stone out.” “Aye, sir,” Nored replied to the empty screen; then she rose. “You heard the commodore. We remain in observation mode.” Davidson shrugged. “Fine with me; although I can’t see what he hopes to achieve. He doesn’t have the firepower to roast the bugs’ asses; and thy sure as hell wouldn’t listen to him.” “We’ll see,” Nored said. “It wouldn’t be the first time for Hannibal Stone to face impossible odds and emerge victoriously. The man is a legend for a reason, and I for my part can’t wait to see him in action.” “Be careful what you wish for,” Leila Kalomi warned. “You might get it; and you might not like it.”
