This is quite interesting. Finally, Nick is gonna become a part of the community.

Finally, you've updated! And what I can say on this chapter is you've done a good job, though I'd like to know what the auction was all about. Great work.

Awesome. Can't wait to see what this 'Kerberos' creature is!

I noticed something in this chapter. Between the conversation with 525 and piper there is no transfer, it's kind of confusing. I am not sure if you forgot to put something there or if you put something there and it disappeared...

Also I feel like the relationship development between piper and 642/nick seems to be going to fast, but on the other hand I have not been in that kind of relationship and and from a couple of points of view it does make sense, among other things.

Well anyways, I say it is looking good so far and to keep up the good work.
so until next time.

Awesome! I cannot wait to read what comes next! Riviting story, beautiful intro! Very well done!

This is interesting so far. It first i was put off by your grammar and use of words, one such instance was the use of supersonic in application to superluminal speeds in a vacuum. It probably did not help that I prefer hard science fiction, and was looking for such a story when I came across yours.

But anyways I liked how you mentioned that the engines were anti-matter, it gave the plausibility of a ship going that fast a hole lot more realistic... well in terms of getting to relativistic speeds... although carrying that much anti-matter and getting past the hole light-speed as a universal speed-limit makes me think the ship has some sort of space compacting system or something. But it is your universe so having your ship brute force its way to that speed or not is entirely up to you.

Well I hope I was a good reviewer, I am kind of new to it (and it has been awhile sense i read the earlier chapters) so this is the best i can say.

(P.S. if you are wondering about the anti-matter thing I found out it takes a lot and I mean a lot of anti-matter to destroy a planet, reading a oh-what-is-it-called about how to permanently destroy the earth. And when I say destroy I mean It no longer exists as a singular planet. That is of course assuming that the planet is roughly the size of earth.)

We'll enslave alien races!

Great can't wait

:P

Your doing great! It's an absolute great story!
