I'm REALLY pleased that you guys like the manga/comic style post. I will admit its not 100% what I wanted - but when you've got "Microsoft Paint" as your only picture editing software, you can't expect too much lol.

As for Nero and Sakaki... just wait and see

It was a simple task – travel from Tai Ceti IV to Sheratan to make contact with Site 187 and collect Grisham, along with three new recruits. Of coarse things aren’t always so simple…

“What the hell was that all about?” Grisham asked as he walked over from his hiding position. I remained silent as I watched Sakaki Kaor

I looked out through the window into the vast emptiness of space. Staring at my dim reflection in the glass, my mind flickered back to life on Tau Ceti IV. Though I was only there for a brief moment, I felt as if a large portion of myself was blown away along with most of the planet. Now we were returning to the place I once called home. I shuddered to imagine what the place would look like...

The unknown status of both Kodiak lance had put me on edge. When comrades go missing, you instantly assume the worse.

One reason I thought of a reboot is because, honestly, there is alot I have forgotten. I mean, I remember all the major missions and plot twists, but I don't know if I could just jump back into the current mission without screwing up an entire canon because of one oversight.

The other reason I want to do a reboot is because there are things I'm not happy with about my characters. For starters I desperately want to rename them slightly (and just throwing that in with the exist

The issues I have with Pay Pal is, it wont allow me to do a direct debit from my bank account. In order to use pay pal, I have to pay money into my account via my bank. The problem I have is, every time I use Pay Pal (which is very rare) I get questioned by pay pal because I am a Brit living in Germany using a German bank. So what would normally take 3-5 working days to process becomes a 14-21 day pain in the ass of confirming who I am.
