Wing Commander V: Eternal Vigilance
Category: Sci-Fi
Year: August 17th, 2678
(This is a Prequel to the actual story, im just showing here how things lead up to what will be the storyline when the actual fict gets started! So, enjoy this special preview, and don't forget to check out the Audition for a Introduction Voice Actor in the Fan Projects Section.)
Writers Note: Eternal Vigilance is my adaptation of what I think should have happened a month before and 5 years after Wing Commander IV, this is in no way ‘Canon’ as most Fan Ficts aren’t…So, a few of the things we know in the Wing Commander Series may change. View this, as an alternate reality if you will…Im just trying to see how this idea would play out, so. Everyone who reads I appreciate any feedback!
Keep in mind since some things have changed, im going to write as if Prophecy never happened ‘Hence the reason why I number this as Wing Commander V’. The reason being, I have different ideas for what happens before and after TPOF. Firstly Col. Blair was exiled from Con-Fed for being a Traitor, and it was never found out that Con-Fed was starting to become corrupt…So, in fact Con-Fed is now becoming its own worst enemy.
Col. Blair is the only person left who knows the truth, and as such Con-Fed fights Non-Stop to find him and eliminate him Permanently. Admiral Tolwyn knows if Blair lives, many people will believe him…given his status as a War Hero, and the man who defeated the Kilrathi. Only time will tell what will become of the Colonel.
Prologue\Story Introduction: This story takes place 5 years after the events of The Price of Freedom, the Confederation has won the fight with the Border Worlds and peace has rained out or so the people think…Factions within the Con-Fed itself are working to take over the Government as a whole, and bring down the scariest kind of terror.
On the fringe of still free space a lone Privateer named Aaron Daniels and his Wife and Small Daughter, work to make a living finding and selling anything that is sellable…From Food to Ship Parts, all the way up to Priceless Artifacts on Colonies long since forgotten. Neither of them know that their lives are about to change, when they meet an Exiled War Hero…Exiled for his Crimes in Betraying the Con-Federation almost 5 years before, Col. Christopher Blair has been traveling space staying one step ahead of The Confederation.
However, on the Outskirts of the Tau Ceti System his ship stalled, leaving him stranded however soon a Modified Tarsus Class Cargo Ship passed by. Picking up his signal they tractored him to their cargo bay, not knowing what they had gotten themselves into.
With a soft, swoop the ship returns to its Destination and a new Adventure Begins! In this new Fan Fiction Adaption of Wing Commander by a fan for the fans, Wing Commander V: Eternal Vigilance promises to excite and bring a fresh new outlook to the Wing Commander Universe…
Chapter 0: 5 Years Before…
“We must stand to protect our rights, we must unite to beat the Border…” Admiral Tolwyn barely had gotten that out of his mouth.
“Worlds?” Blair asked, walking right into the center of the Great Assembly. “Why don’t you tell them the truth, tell them about Black Lance. Admiral!”
“Seize that man! He is a traitor to the Confederation, and a wanted criminal.” Tolwyn yelled, as two Con-Fed guards take Blair by the arms.
“Blair…” Paladin shook his head. “You shouldn’t have come here, old friend.”
“I had to, Paladin.” Blair’s stare then turned cold. “To root out the evil in The Confederation, the border worlds aren’t the bad guy’s in any of this. They have been set up, by Tolwyn.”
“That’s a big claim Blair.” Tolwyn looked at the crowd. “We all know the Border Worlds started this war, and the Confederation tried every diplomatic solution. The Border Worlds Army are blood thirsty, they seek vengeance and we will not give in to them or Traitors!”
The crowd then erupts in a thunderous applause for Tolwyn.
“ORDER!” Paladin shouted striking the gavel down on his stand. “I want order.”
“Don’t discourage them Senator, they support what Confederation stands for and this is a Free Assembly. I say, let them speak their minds.” Tolwyn said. “Colonel Blair, now that we have you in custody we will have you’re hearing. How do you plea?”
“If fighting for my Freedom is a bad thing to do, then im as guilty as the Kilrathi back in the war.” Blair looked at each person in the Audience. “If you want to be fooled by this man then don’t believe me, but if you want to know the truth allow me to show what evidence I have.”
“I say, let the man speak.” A man said.
“No, exile him from Confederation and never let him comeback. He may be the hero of Kilrah, but he is a Traitor now.” Another man said.
“Then it’s decided.” Tolwyn said. “After an instant unanimous vote by the Senate…”
Blair looks at Paladin. “I thought you was my friend you coward, you are not the man I once knew. I hope you’re happy.” He said coldly.
Paladin looks at Blair then at Tolwyn, not saying a single word.
“Colonel Christopher Blair, you are now officially stripped of you’re Confederation Command Stripes. You are also ordered out of Confederation Space, if our fighters so much as catch a hint of you’re presence in the Vega Sector, they will have orders to kill you.” Tolwyn looked at the Crowd then back at Blair. “Guards, escort him to the Landing Bay and make sure he leaves this Space.”
The Guards salute their orders then drag Blair off to the Landing Bay.
“What you are doing is wrong, Tolwyn.” Paladin very lowly said.
“He killed many of our soldiers in the Fight last week around Vega, he has destroyed many of our patrols on the Fringe of Con-fed space.” Tolwyn smiled. “Its time for a little payback, my patrols are ordered to blow him out of the sky… The heart of the tiger will meet his destiny and it’s not very pretty.”
Paladin gets up and walks out of the Assembly Room, not sure where he was headed.
Vega Sector – 10 Clicks from the Vega Jump…
“Alright, almost home…Tell Eisen I’ll be back shortly.” Blair said to an old friend, over the Com Link.
“Got that Colonel, but you better watch out. Tolwyn isn’t exactly you’re biggest fan.” Maniac sighed. “Not that I would mind you getting blown up, you know it would be much quieter out here.”
“Alright Marshall, you be careful to.” Blair shook his head. “Blair out.”
“Colonel, it is time for you to die!” A fighter pilot said.
“What?” Was all Blair could say.
Two Experimental Blackjack Class Fighters decloak and open fire on Blair knocking out his shields, and then disabling his engines completely. “Any last words, Blair?”
“Ya, tell me who you work for. My ships about to blow and im about to die, let me die knowing the truth.” Blair said.
“Alright, Black Lance is headed up by Admiral Tolwyn and you’re buddy Paladin is his Second in Command. Happy?” The pilot asked.
“Ya.” Blair hits the eject button, he then rockets out of the Fighter his Ejected Escape Pod then Cloaks. “Thanks, Paladin.”
“Where did he go?” The pilot asked. “Oh no…”
The Blackjack Fighter then turns and heads back to Earth as Blair looks out the Window of the Pod. “I hope they get here fast, or Con-Fed might get here first.”
The TCS Liberty – 6:30 AM October 1st, 2678 5 Years later…
“Welcome aboard the Liberty Lieutenant, I hope you enjoy you’re first posting.” The Wing Commander said.
“I intend to, who knows… I might have you’re job one day Commander.” The New Lieutenant teased. “I think I’ll go look around, I like to get a feel for the ships im on.”
“Understood, report to debriefing when you’re ready for Patrol Duty.” The Wing Commander then saluted, and walked back toward the Bridge.
“Alright…” The Lieutenant said, heading toward the Rec Room.
To Be Continued…Chapter 1: Meeting A Legend.
