Competition: Avast, Matey!

On a routine cargo drop off, you and your cargo cruiser are boarded by pirates. You and the crew, a handful of pilots, some mechanics, and a few deck hands, are responsible for the defense of your vessel.

You find yourself taking charge of the crew, and formulate your own way of dealing with the attack. Write a fiction, no less than 500 words, that describes you repelling the attack, either diplomatically or through might. This competition will be marked using the Standard Fiction Rubric.

CI's awarded according to Voice policy.
