Rebecca Coulson

You got a phone call in the middle of the night. The kind of a phone call that disperses all of your illusions about having the first decent vacation in more than five years. A call from none other than Admiral Morgan Adeleke, your superior. "Major, we have a situation on our hands! Gather your team and get to U.S.S. Sheba as fast as you can! The shuttle will be there to pick you up in 10 minutes!" Admiral's voice left no room for negotiations. Before you even knew what was going on, you were already on a shuttle that carried you to Admiral Adeleke's flagship, waiting silently in the low orbit. The admiral went straight to the point. An alien spaceship crash landed on colony LV-426, one of the outermost planets of the solar system. And your mission was to lead a task force that will explore the derelict spaceship and gather any data they possibly can about it's origins. And any technology it might possess. As a leader of one of the most decorated units of United States Colonial Marines, you were the right man for the job. And it would've been a straightforward recon mission, if not for one thing... Your primary objective is to escort a group of scientists who will explore the derelict spaceship, and make sure they all come back in one piece. Babysitting a bunch of nerds, to put it lightly. A research group led by Rebecca Coulson, one of the most brilliant (and the most difficult) women who ever put on a lab coat. And, to make things even worse for you, one of the most beautiful... You didn't think this could go without drama, did you?
