Battle Scars

Chapter 2 - Discovery

The Setup

Mal Reynolds and the rest of the crew of Serenity are on their way to Paquin. In their cargo hold hidden away in several of those secret places on Serenity that “don’t exist“, is booty acquired by another one of Badger’s contract ship’s for hire named the “Vulture”.

Vulture is captained by a descendant of people native to the old North American continent on “Earth That Was” . His name is Ira Eggers and he is a veteran of the battle of Serenity Valley.

Ira, recently was freed from a government detainment center and now he and his crew are on the run. They still need to eat though so they are hired by Badger on occasion to perform tasks that are risky and dangerous.

Ira had been held on a testing planet because, after the war, it was found that he had certain powers that the government was interested in exploiting for their benefit. Not as skilled as River, yet Ira’s abilities were worth Parliament experimentation. He and his crew now roam the universe, and like many of the old independent fights, are being driven further and further away from the core worlds in order to make a living and survive. God help them…..

PS: Ira Eggers, his ship, the “Vulture” and his crew are properties of Bruce Pluto and Z…..their writer and creator. They are fine actors, whiny at times, but like I keep telling them “If you can find a better job, take it!”. I pay them in beaver pelts because…..I can, and they are constantly wanting more money! If any other fan-fic writer on this site would like to hire them, then they’re yours for a measly two square. I’ve about had it with Ira and his crew. They are continually wanting more outta life than just being a character on a page. I keep telling them, “ Hey, that air that you breath cost money! I pay taxes for those government run terraforming operations so quit your belly aching!”….and so it goes….

Anyway, those are my problems, sorry to think I can burden you with my inability to control what I write on the page. So, now
