Part 2

Quickfire

Hans got dressed and went to his locker he handed in his security pass and service Fairborn knife and gun to the armourer under supervision from Eagle and two guards. Hans didn’t say anything just saluted Eagle and walked to the Parking lot. He had on his black leather jacket and boots took his helmet off his BMW R 1200 R and fastened it on. Hans then strode his ride and gunned the engine driving off home.
In minutes he was followed by a red Daimler which stayed behind him at a suitable distance. Behind the wheel was Chopper in civilian clothes and with him was Stakeout. Jones said “So was I chosen for this because of me codename do you think?” Chopper just laughed and said “You love this stuff Jonesy and you know it!”
Minutes later they came to traffic lights and Hans happened to glance back and saw the Daimler which he logged at the back of his mind. When he got home he would make plans to find his brother damn what Eagle told him. The lights went green and Hans saw the Daimler was still following him “Someone is trying to pull a hit on me” he murmured under his helmet he gunned the R 1200 R’s engine and went flat out towards the country instead of heading towards his house. Jones said “Hang on we are heading away from Quicky’s gaff aren’t we? I think he’s on to us!” Chopper nodded his head and slowed his speed trying not to arouse Han’s suspicion further. Quickfire grinned when he saw the Daimler had slowed down he took the next turn and headed towards a pub. He got off his bike and took his helmet off and went inside. The pub was a typical country one with big oak beams and furnishings with a beer garden in the back and oak tables outside; he went to the bar and ordered a pint of coke and a lasagne and salad. The Daimler pulled up and parked further away from Han’s bike. Jones and Chopper sat back relaxing and waited. Inside, Hans food had arrived he casually glanced outside and saw his pursuers and slowly ate his dinner. He ordered a few more drinks then asked the bar man “Is there a back entrance I can use to get back to my bike?” The bar man looked quizzically at him “Yes there is, but why do you want to know?” Hans replied “It’s a matter of national importance I believe I am being pursued and most get out of here in one piece”. The barman stood up straight and said “In that case turn right. Go down stairs to the beer garden and take a left. Hans nodded finished his drink and followed the directions. Outside, Chopper looked at his watch “He’s been in there awhile”. Jones said “I need a piss I will go check see if he is there!” He got out and glanced round the pub then headed to the toilet. By that time Hans was at the beer garden and heading towards his bike Chopper saw him and ran inside shouting “Jones, Jones!” He rushed into the toilets knocking Jones who said “Bloody hell mate I just pissed on me hands!” Chopper said “Never mind that, Hans is leaving come on!”
Hans had a head start on his bike he decided to slow down and find out who was after him and why.
Eventually the Daimler caught up to him so Hans accelerated off then swerved his bike sideways on. Chopper saw this and was just narrowly able to stop from hitting his team mate. Hans took off his helmet and shouted “Get out the car!” Both Jones and Chopper did this then Hans said “What the hell are you two doing following me?” Chopper slicked back his hair and said “We were under orders to keep track of you Pal and…keep a distance I guess that didn’t work out as planned”. Hans nodded his head then said “Right you may as well come back to my house and we will talk there, follow me!”

Space Force

At Space Dock, Commander Connors had patrols searching for his missing men in the sector they were last seen in but nothing had been found except for twisted wreckage of the Triad. Meanwhile Hotjets and Moondancer were talking having agreed to allying with Karl Vagan. Hotjets spoke in hushed tones to Moondancer “Comrade I don’t entirely trust this Vagan there is something about him and his name that makes me cautious. Until we know more don’t mention Space Force as far as he is concerned we work for IASA do you agree?” “Na’am my friend” replied Moondancer. Karl viewed them with interested and said “You don’t trust me do you? You are quite a pair a Russian and an Arab working together I find that…interesting”. He then said “To show I am on the level I will tell you about myself. I was once a wanted man but now that has changed” he said lightening his tone in a repentant way. He carried on” Years ago, I led a small team to a space station under the auspice of Project Alpha we killed the personnel in cold blood and sabotaged the station. Some of those men escaped me and may still live today. I eluded capture in a space capsule that became badly damaged in the explosion of the station and drifted aimlessly in space. Until I was found by our captors they call themselves Zargonites and I have been here ever since and now I...I just want to go home and seek redemption for I am a changed man.” Karl bowed his head a little too theatrically for Hotjets liking but he said “If we get out of here we will have to take you into custody for murder. We work for IASA the International Aeronautics Space Agency or Project Alpha as you knew it so we are honour bound to bring you in I hope you understand Comrade Vagan.” Karl said “Yes, I understand”. Just then the door slid upwards and a guard brought in a tray of food Karl spun round doing a roundhouse kick to the guard’s chest and took his gun he then said “Quick, my friends we must go!” They followed him cautiously down the corridor and subdued two more guards and took their guns. They eventually made it to the hangar where the Triad had been brought in. Vagan saw the guns on the fighter and said “What kind of agency do you work for that allows you to fly armed craft like that?” “Never mind that let’s go” said Moondancer. Karl led them down the stairs to the triad and quickly got behind the two Space Force operatives he then pressed a button on the intercom and said “Attention! Attention all security forces come down to the hangar this is your leader speaking!” Hotjets and Moondancer turned round to face Vagan who was very suddenly flanked by troopers. Karl said “Disarm them and take them to a more secure holding area and bring me my usual attire!” Troopers took the weapons away from their captives while others helped Karl dress. He was now wearing a black and silver suit with a stylised Skull and cross bones motif, a black cape, silver boots and a helmet with green visor. Moondancer said “Who are you?” Karl said with an altered voice “My name is Karl Vagan but you may call me Zargon!” He laughed as the prisoners were taken away.

End of Part 2

[DAMartin]

So the Zargonites have been reimagined as 's evil counterpart? Clever!

[The Baron]

May I suggest picking just one title?

[Red Laser]

I think I will go with What You Leave Behind as the title. I took IASA from Farscape for those of you thinking it sounds familiar it fits into the international theme of Space Force and I assume Project Alpha. And What You Leave Behind is the Season 7 DS9 finale title Strange BedFellows the other title is also a DS9 episode title as well as a story from Marvel's GI Joe.
