Description

“Anything yet?” Kaidan paced behind Joker’s chair, the tension and anticipation rolling off of him was practically stifling in the small space of the cockpit.

“No, just like ten seconds ago..... and ten seconds before that..... and ten...”

“Joker.” Garrus’s tone was loaded with unmistakable warning.

“No sir, still unable to pick up any transmissions.”

Kaidan crossed his arms across his chest as he paced. “And are we sure we’re short range broadcasting our ships ID and message regarding the status of our COM system?”

Joker spun in his chair, his mouth open ready to unleash a torrent of sarcastic abuse at Kaidan, but he stopped when he saw the look on his friends face. His eyes were wide and he looked like he was ready to crawl out of his own skin he was so on edge.

“Yes sir, systems show short range broadcast is being sent out.”

“It’s just a case of waiting till we’re in broadcast range now.” Liara placed a reassuring hand on Kaidan’s shoulder as he walked past her, where she stood in the doorway. He paused and gave her a curt nod. “Joker, can you let us hear the incoming signal?”

With a tap and click or two on the console screen before him, Joker patched the open frequency through to the ships intercom system and the air was filled with a hiss and crackle of static.

Kaidan walked over to the co-pilots seat and stared intently out of the window before him. To the naked eye there was nothing but rolling black space before them. They knew better. As they neared the relay the ships sensors had picked up several Alliance ships around the sporadically surging and stalling energy signature of the Arcturus Relay.
