Captain Starjammer and the Continuing Adventures of the Galaxy Brigade, Chapter 14: Treason!
"If it wasn't for your inept leadership," snarled Ensign Quark as he waived his laser pistol menacingly, "We wouldn't be stuck out here in the most desolate region of the universe!"
"Think of the consequences of your actions, Ensign. They will vaporize you for this." Captain Starjammer warned gravely.
Ensign Quark snickered. "Vaporize me? They'll give me a medal when they see how poorly you've conducted this rescue operation. Princess Palusian is still in the vile clutches of Grobbo Crudd and his evil space goblins, and we are no closer to saving her than when we left Galaxy Brigade headquarters three days ago!"
Captain Starjammer exhaled sharply and began to slowly approach the brash young Ensign. Quark backed away nervously, pointing the laser pistol at the Captain's chest. "Lower your weapon, Ensign, before I get really angry."
"Stay back!" Quark shrieked. "I'm taking over this ship! I'll shoot you if I must!"
As Quark ran out of room to retreat, Captain Starjammer quickly closed the distance until the laser pistol jutted into his strong chest. "If you have the guts, Ensign, then pull that trigger." Ensign Quark shook and whimpered for a few long moments. Finally, Captain Starjammer dropped him to the floor with a thunderous slap to the face. "Commander Nebula, escort this traitor to the brig immediately!"
Commander Nebula dragged Quark's unconscious body from the room while Captain Starjammer turned to study the main view screen that dominated the ship's bridge. Chief Science Officer Thaddeus Gray approached the Captain's side quietly. "Do you think we'll find her in time, Captain?"
"We must, old friend." Captain Starjammer answered stoically, "The future of the Galaxy Brigade depends on it."
Will the Galaxy Brigade rescue princess Palusian before Grobbo Crudd and his evil space goblins reveal their evil intentions? Find out next week on Captain Starjammer and the Continuing Adventures of the Galaxy Brigade!
