Mission: Indomitable Will
Location: Archa IV
Timeline: Weekend after Long day. 09:00

Vorran entered the runabout Amazon and began the pre-launch startup of it's systems. He and Liam were planning on a trip to the planet below to get away for a while.

Liam had two duffel bags strapped over each of his shoulders. Tyler had managed to convince someone to allow him to borrow a runabout for the weekend. And for whatever reason, Commander Austin didn't stop them. So, they both figured it'd be the perfect opportunity to visit the planet, scout out some potential wedding locales, and take some more time to themselves.

Turning a corridor, Liam came up to the runabout pad's airlock and stepped right through. The doors were open so he knew Tyler was already inside. After entering the runabout, he secured the airlock. "Hey," he said as he walked towards the aft compartment to store their things. "How's it going?" he asked from the other room, with the doors open.

"The runabout is in better shape than my shuttle. We should be able to fly halfway across the quadrant without stopping if need be." Vorran replied.

After Liam placed the bags down on the floor, he rushed into the cockpit of the runabout and smiled at Tyler as he took his seat at the ops console. "Getting clearance to depart now..." he said as his hands swiftly moved along his control panel. "And we're cleared," he stated as he looked at Tyler. "You ready?"

"Engaging thrusters." Tyler said as he maneuvered the Amazon out of the docking bay. "I'm looking forward to a weekend away just you and me."

"Yeah, me too," Liam replied as he manned his operations controls. "Have you found a place for us to set down? I haven't been able to do much research into the planet with work and everything, so I'm kind of relying on you to guide me here."

"I'm setting us down in the Capital city in the continent of Acan. Might as well start at the heart of the place with our exploring, there is also a resort that may be a good place to have the wedding." Tyler replied

"Sounds like a good place to start." Liam replied as the Planet Archa IV grew larger in the viewports.
