DRAUDIS AMBUSH!

SPACE DATE 2234.299

Stupid Draudis Lizard Men have ambushed us again!  This is the third time this month ... they know we're required by Official Galactic Union Policy to answer every distress signal we receive, and they keep luring us to the same asteroid belt.  They took out our weapons and energy fields, and told us we have two minutes to surrender.  Commander Powell and Dr. Rena are going on and on about a plan of some sort ... waiting for one of them to sum it up with an analogy ... those two talk too fast.  God I have such a headache.  It might be a migrane.  The bridge is all messed up too.  Lt. Jayda's bleeding that weird pinkish blood all over the carpet.  The Draudis captain on the viewscreen just said 50 seconds left - or 15, it's hard to tell with their super deep voices and accents.  Right now I'm in my office tying to shake out this headache with the help of a little space ale.  Hopefully Rena and Powell are done with their plan.  They looked both look pretty busy at their consoles when I left them.  Dammit they're firing again!  GTG!
