Horizon was trying to find something to occupy her time her commander had alerted them all to the incoming arrival of a vessel into their sector. The moment she had heard the announcement Horizon felt her throat tighten up as that now familiar sense of anxiety intensified. Though Ayako seemed confident that it was the human vessel that they were expecting Horizon was not so sure. It could be any human vessel unlucky enough to jump into their sector of space, like the scout craft before. Worse yet, it could be the Nebula Fleet and if they found them talking to humans, planning to help them, Horizon shuddered to imagine what would happen then. Who ever was coming, Horizon had to turn to meet them.
The moment she came to that conclusion the ship was jumping to comply, suddenly her forward thrusters shut off, only for others to ignite, to push the nose of her ship 180 back toward Lythios Prime and where the ship was suppose to appear. The large ship had just managed to finish the maneuver when her sensors sent her the same alert everyone else in system received. Horizon moved to the large Holographic display in the middle of the bridge to see the small Medium class Freighter pop into space between her and the rest of her battle group. What was the old human saying, between a rock and a hard place? It certainly fit the current situation for the small craft.
She stood studying the display long enough to see the ship was obviously damaged and was already attempting to flee. It was then that a sudden primal urge had stuck Horizon. For a moment all she wanted to do was to chase down the wounded beast, to rip it apart with her weapons, several that were already in range. As she thought it the ship complied, she felt the Weapons systems activating, several turrets began swiveling in the direction of the ship. As suddenly as that feeling had come however so to did it disappear, replaced with the sense of horror. The weapons stopped moving, though the weapons did not deactivate completely, and instead Horizon actuated her Tractor beam.
Her ship began moving closer, easily out pacing the damaged freighter. It gave Horizon a moment to clear her head, though it did little good. She couldn't help the thought at the back at her head that she should be destroying the ship and not bothering with getting closer. Still she did not change her course, and instead fired her Tractor beam catching the slow moving ship in its grip. It was only then did Horizon sent the unknown ship a holographic transmission. The picture was of Horizon, a somewhat forced smile on her lips as she quickly waved as some sort of greeting.
Putting her hand down, she kept them clasped behind her back in an attempt to be as formal as possible. "Uhm, hi!" she said, broadening her smile. "In an attempt to save time I am forgoing any formal introduction. You may call me Horizon. I see you guys are going the wrong way! Don't worry I can help you get to the moon colony." As she said that Her ship began moving toward the moon, the human ship in tow in an attempt to get to push the ship faster toward the moon. "We have no time to waste, ignore the other ships in orbit. When we get closer to the moon I will release you from the beam and let you get on to your mission. You are here to get water to the colonists correct?" She said it as an after thought to her actions. "Becuase if your not, then this is more then a little awkward."
