10 Pirate Snare

This could be my last journal entry.

Besides the two pirate ships that were now chasing us, commander Sarah just detected nine more pirate vessels closing in on us.

Our drone could outmaneuver three of them at most. Eleven of them would be impossible.

Under normal circumstances, pirates are not known to attack in such large numbers. These pirates must know what we are carrying. Somehow they must have found out we have a precious cryogenic embryo on board.

And now they are closing in on us from all directions.

The pirates are not using weapons on us, but the situation is hopeless. They are simply closing in on us from all directions with intentions of boarding our vessel.

Once they board our ship, they will take the cargo, disembowel our ship, and expel all three of us into space.

I never thought it would end like this.
