Royal Launch "Swift" crashed
Netbrix „Full Steam“ S. 1/Ep. 9 „Help? Help!"
Chief Goodwin started to worry. The „Sparkle“ had been searching deep in the floating ice field for more than three hours now, and still there was no sign of the Queen. He knew that a small launch like the „Swift“ was not designed for long range travel, and ill-equipped for severe weather conditions as these. He did not dare to think what would happen if they couldn’t find the vessel soon, for the Royal party’s survival would be highly unlikely then. But not rescuing the Queen was not an option. They were the Royal Brixton Fire Brigade after all.
Suddenly Chief Howler screeched in loud animation atop the water canon and pointed to a couple of small lights which sparingly showed through a dark cloud of smoke on the horizon. Upon approaching they found the „Swift“ crashed on a small ice floe, its engines ripped off and scattered around the vessel, burning hot in a stinking cloud of smoke. The impact of the crash, and the additional heat of the burning engines had the ice floe cracking into several pieces and put the Royal launch in danger of falling into the ice cold water. „Help! Here! Help!“, several people who stood upon the highes point of the iceberg screamed over the roar of the „Swift’s“ engines, waving flags and torches. Goodwin made was relieved: from the first look of things everybody had survived, and seemed to be without serious injury.
„Chief Ashford“, Goodwin yelled into his radio, „we got her! Do you copy? We found the Queen!“
