[RP] Turn 39 Allied Movement FS enters TH Lipton 2325

[Lord Harlock]

Nadir Point above Lipton

The FSS Federation, the newest of the Federated Suns Covenant Class Cruisers, was returning back to the Suns to participate in Operation Nero. It now was over Lipton after traveling from the Periphery of the Lyran Commonwealth on the return to the Suns.

Commodore Franklin Hayek sat back in his command chair. "Open a hailing frequency to the Terrans."

He looked for Mr. Ikari, but the Draconis Combine citizen had been dropped off at their last jump. The ship held a skeleton crew. But finally he heard a voice say. "Hailing frequency open."

He frowned as he heard the echo. The bridge of the Federation was empty. "This is Commodore Franklin Hayek of the FSS Federation to Lipton Planetary Control. We are passing through back to the Federated Suns. No need to worry, and our flight path was already approved."

Hayek was glad that they finally found all of the Raven emblems on board, but he wished that he had a crisp cold glass of ice tea at the moment like his grandmother back on Kestrel use to make.

Federation, this is Lipton defense grid control. We are tracking you on our sensors. You are cleared to recharge and transit this system.
