Goran checked his armaments after his meal, and discovered that his Ebony mace was missing.

"Esta, we have to find who stole the mace. It is an important artifact of the church, and I do believe that they would be greatly displeased if it did not return to them after this is over."

Esta nodded. While he did not see the value in such an item, especially considering the risk of giving chase, it was clearly important to the priest. A reddish glow illuminated Esta's eyes as he looked around the entire room, searching every corner and bulkhead.

After being assured the thief was not still hiding somewhere in the room, he bolted to the large doorway, the only place in or out of the eatery. He performed the same search left and right as he exitted the eatery. With one final glance back at Goran, he nodded again and started running down the long promenade which stretched across most of the eastern quadrant of the space station.

The place was pretty empty. There was only a few aliens walking here and there. Then, out of the corner of his eye, a shadow blurred into another corridor one hundred meters ahead. It was moving much faster than Esta, but he did not relent. In about fifteen seconds Esta reached the turn and started his way down the new corridor.

It was a narrow space bridge, with massive viewing windows giving passerbys a beautiful glimpse of the vaccuum beyond. The bridge itself was quite narrow, maybe enough to fit eight people side by side, but it continued all the way to the other section of the space station. Only three creatures were walking along the bridge, two insectoids and one humanoid. Esta scanned each of them as he ran by, deciding it would be nigh impossible for any of them to be hiding a large, ivory mace.

Esta reached the end of the space bridge after a minute of so. There were two turns, one continued on and connected to a main promenade on the western part of the station, the other was a narrower, dark maintenance corridor. This Shadow would hide with his kin, the Darkness. Esta started down the maintenance corridor. The reddish glow returned to his eyes and illuminated the extensive bulkheads above his head. It was almost like an intricate maze of pipes, and it was certainly pitch black. Very easy to hide in, if you could climb well.

He quickened his pace, but even then he knew he would not be able to catch up to the thief. As he was passing by a particular bend, however, he caught a glimpse of something concealed in the bulkheads with his extrasensory vision. It was almost perfectly blended with the wall bend, without the magic, he would have missed it entirely. But the white mace added the flaw to this thief's stealth capabilities.

Esta stopped and looked straight up into the maze of pipes and power relays, fixing his glowing eyes on the shadowy figure. A smile crept onto his icy-blue lips and he raised both of his hands to abdomen level, waiting.

The thief burst out with a furry of blades spinning like Kleangdorian tumbleweed.

A small escape pod shot from the Arcturian Battleship soon afterwards the ship exploded and sent the escape pod ofcourse towards the space station.Ricard tryed to get the pod back on course but it was too badly damaged"I hope I can get a ride out of there".

The small pod hurtled towards the space station.Ricard sent out a distress signal and a tractor beam started to bring him to a port"hmmm...."he looked around him and seen all manner of vendors.Then he seen two creatures among a maze of pipes fighting for what looked like an Ebony Mace"food and fighting this place has got it all" he raised his sword and ran towards the battle.
