Disaster in Space/Amy:Rebels:Sign Up
From Create Your Own Story
After thinking it over, you decide a steady paycheck might be a nice change of pace. Besides, smuggling supplies to the rebels sounds safer than dealing with the underworld, as long as you're technically a freelancer and not a sympathizer. You give the rebel captain your smiling reply: "Make it a captain's salary and I'm in."
"Not a chance, hot stuff," the captain shoots back, smirking at your bold counter-proposal. "No offense, but a sporty little hauler like yours doesn't even rate a commander's pay. If you want a command that comes with oak leaves, try a frigate or cruiser."
"Fair enough," you sigh. Well, it was worth a try anyway. "You must have plenty of work for someone with my skills. Try me."
"Not so fast, my little spitfire." He laughs - obviously he's beginning to like you. "We need to brief you first - give you a picture of the strategic situation so you can make good decisions out there. And we'd be happy to give you some training at our compound, free of charge."
You accept the offer graciously, though you doubt a bunch of half-trained rebel fighters would have anything to teach an experienced pilot and gunslinger like you. Maybe you can even teach them a thing or two!
