"Always thought those credits were an accounting glitch... And to think. We gave most of it away to Smart Solutions. Those guys are the real heroes. Their work on Mowedna was unbelievable. Brought the whole damn civilization back from ruin!"

"We might have backed them a small amount in the background too, as we have some interests in the civilization. Enough talk however. What does your team normally do for missions?"
-
"We cover everything. Defending a single point, stealing from places that are deemed impossible, protecting high value targets in battle, assassinations. You name it, we've done it at least once... Including destroy a world..." Serendipity fell silent towards the end, looking away for a moment.
-
"Well then, you are perfect for the job. We needed someone to destroy a planet, and here we are. Interested?"
-
"Depends. What planet are we destroying? What did they do to warrant such a feat?" Serendipity inquired, looking back at the line.
-
"To be specific, an artificial planet. Factory world by one of our competitors. These guys love building weapons of mass destruction. And also love messing with us"
-
"We can do it, yeah." Serendipity affirmed, relaxing her hands at her hips before crossing them over her chest. "Any specifications on how you want it done? I was thinking we could get on world, set off a few of their weapons on world."
-
"No no, I want you to blow up the core. You see, the world's core is the largest bomb we've seen them build. Setting it off could start a super nova. That's exactly what we want. I need your team to move the planet near the capital planet of that solar system, and blow the core next to it before leaving."
-
"Brutal..." Serendipity said, nodding her head. "Yeah we can do it."
-
"And one final thing...." A image flashed on the screen. He seemed to be a high ranking official "When you start thw detonation, grab this man and bring him to us....alive"
-
"Got ya. We'll see if we can find him. Does it matter if we don't? Or is he a priority?"
-
"You don't grab him, we dock your pay by 3/4s of what it should be"
-
"So he's a priority. Got it." Serendipity said, nodding her head. "We'll get him."
-
"Good. I'll send the details over. Complete the mission, and we will design a custom weapon based on your specifications at well" [spoiler]This Includes A Crappy Drawing From Me[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Noice...[/spoiler] "What about the payment? How much are we getting off of this?" Serendipity inquired, thinking about the potential weapon.
-
"Depending on how high tech you want the weapon, pay for each member will be 50 billion credits to 30 billion"
-
"That... Would set us up for the rest of our lives..." Serendipity said with a chuckle, shaking her head slightly.
-
"It is rare to pay so well to a free lancer, let alone multiple. However, Heretic plans on destroying multiple solar systems, so it is worth it. This is pay you could see working with us frequently"
-
"We'll take this first job, and sure maybe we'll do another few jobs afterwards. But we're still Freelance at heart." Serendipity stated firmly.

You heard a chuckle, and then a message comes through to you "The details of the mission are in there. Have fun" The call then closes [spoiler]So You Know, Before We Continue, I'm going to create heretic industries faction post. Then we can continue this[/spoiler]

Serendipity quickly checked her omni tool, taking a look at the mission and smiling. [i]Damn. 30 billion credits...[/i] She laughed again, shaking her head as she thought to herself. Of course, under Nytehauk half of that 30-50 billion would be siezed by the Queen bee, buy that still left her with a good 15-25 billion credits to spare. But what did he mean when he said she might have to pick a side? Was there a war that would happen? A war of factions? Either way, she was sure Nytehauk wouldn't step in. The corporation wasn't one for bad blood with other factions. [spoiler]Cool, I'll wait. [/spoiler]

https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1677784/233075991/0/0/1 Basic Data on the corporation you would assault was on the debrief. They seemed highly equipped, and it didn't help they were evangelical maniacs. It would be hard to breach their defenses They had a small weakpoint on the station however: you couldn't have a ship that was unauthorized go through the shield, but people could jump through. The issue being that they would need a decent supply of air to not die on the descent. Not to mention the patrols all over. Oh, and then there was the overseer. Some monsterous robot that would fly around and that could see everything. Once the shield was breached, you would hope not to say hi to it
-
Serendipity quickly ran through the rest of the debrief, looking for a potential blue print. The Invictus ship itself, was capable of Slip Stream jumps. Essentially meaning it would only take a few seconds to get there rather then a few hours with FTL. On top of that, the ship was a stealth based ship, so it wouldn't pop on radars until it was already to late, giving off a false signal and making it seem like nothing was there. This, however, was only possible when the shield was cloaked. And the ship could only be cloaked in orbit of the station, not in the atmosphere.
-
Edited by Flamyng, Singer of Flames: 9/25/2017 6:01:56 AMWhich was bad, as the artificial atmosphere was right above the shield. Oh, and did I mention the huge naval fleet above the planet. This seemed to be a suicide mission. No wonder it was getting such high payment The interesting thing was that multiple attacks have been tried before, and failed horrendously. The last attack was close, but what seemed to happen was that the overseer was able to Stay ahead of them every time. Like it could see into the future?
-
"Hm.." Serendipity said to herself, taking closer looks at the information. If the ship [i]could[/i] jump throughout the shield, they could jump to outside the shields, Cloak, and send in a small shuttle.
-
Which would immediately blow up. All attempts at getting any sort of ship fire power in failed. You could only go in as yourselves and with whatever fire power you could carry
