Log File 10122

Even with the star charts that we recently inherited from Br'nee (see Log File 10121), we were unable to slip past the Command Carrier patrolling the edge of the asteroid field. It was only a matter of time before the Peacekeepers homed in on Moya's energy signatures and descended on us. With nowhere to run, we were what Crichton referred to as "sitting ducts."

Under these conditions, Rygel's loyalties (which were never certain to begin with) waivered and he fled to the PK Command Carrier hoping to trade the rest of our lives for his own. Perhaps we should have been prepared for this defection -- his emminence has been known to exhibit a penchant for self-interest that has been, in my case, quite literally disarming. Still, adversity had united us in the past and we had yet to face a fate more adverse than this one.

The Hynerian may have succeeded in bartering our lives for his freedom had it not been for a shift in power onboard the Peacekeeper vessel itself. It seems the formidable Captain Crais had lost his grip on his command of the PK Carrier, leaving Scorpius in charge and Crais fearing for his life under the Scarran-hybrid's new regime. Crais convinced Rygel that Scorpius intended to kill them both and together they fled back to Moya. Their reception was about as warm as could be expected.

With old enemies on board and new ones closing in, Moya and I were beginning to doubt that her new offspring would survive long enough to acquire a name...
