Fiction for a good start:

(Something for every Shrek fan)

*** ISDII Grey Wolf, Main Hangar

    The shuttle "EH17-Green" has just landed. The ramp opened and Major Raxis Krieger followed by Sub-Lieutenant Agrepa Hogo stepped down. They walked on the Hangar deck and looked around. There was nobody here. Not even a single droid or single repairman. The ships we're parked at their proper places. The shuttle just took off and headed back to the open space to come back to PLT Daedalus. 

"It is silnet here.... to silent..." - MAJ said. It didn't gave them even a bit of courage. They looked for an exit door from that huge room os emptynees. SL saw one under the Great Logo of the Grey Wolf. The wolf on the picture looked at them with it's shiny eyes and shown a set of sharp teeth. The way to the door was painted with white line on the floor. Agrepa and Raxis had no other choice than to follow the line. They stopped at the door, and looked at the strange box situated next to it. It shined like wolf's eyes. They looked closer with fascination... some clicking noise came out from it... seconds passed... officer's eyes opened even wider when the box opened and showed a set of puppets wearing Imperial uniforms. The dolls were put in some kind of mechanism and seemed to sing something doing some mistical dance around. A nice music came from the box and filled the hangar. The choir of tiny voices began:

  "Welcome to Grey Wolf - such a perfect ship,
    here we have some rules that you should not skip:
    Do not dance, save your wine,
    Keep off Vance - You'll be fine
   Grey Wolf what a perfect ship!"

The pupets turned they bodies by 90 deegrees and continued their song

  "Monks are great, don't get floo,
    Listen to guy who's blue
    Grey Wolf is a perfect place!"

Another 90 degree turn. The song continues...

 "Fly like hell, don't lose grip,
   It's important big tip
 Grey Wolf indeed is the best"

The pupets took another 90 degrees left. Song follows...

 "Care of guns, don't shoot ducks,
   Spam brings joy, Gidda... is a great guy who we like very much
   Grey Wolf - Home of Leeegends"  

The dolls finally faced the stunned officers. Final part of the song begun.

 "Windows closed, don't break glass
   clean your throat, wipe your .... face
   Grey Wolf IS....
   Grey Wolf IS....
   Grey Wolf IS A PERFECT PLAAACE!"   

The machine shut closing the singers inside. The flash appeared and after a second a picture of two confused officers scrolled out from the machine. 

"I want more!!! " shouted SL Hogo

"No, no, no, no, no. NO!" - MAJ stopped the lower ranked officer with a quick slap.

(To be continued)


Vortexian Leader's Office:

We're losing men... Drax already took over Mantis squadron on Intrepid. Drake will soon follow his RL friend. Unfortunatelly at the same time I had a mail from Coremy that he is stepping down to Reserves. Fellow Vortexians! I can tell that it is only a short time of emigration! The recruiting campaign already began... I've got one CT on Deadalus wanting to join Vortex and also one of the Reservers is thinking bout Vortex. Still I won't stop recruiting untill full roster is accieved again. It's a point of honour!
