"The Test" A woman adventurer alone on her ship in the ocean is approached by a diver who indicates that he has seen something in a dive that is beyond belief, and he needs a witness. She agrees to dive with him, and soon they are within the halls of an underwater city. They are found and captured by the native mer-people. They are given a the responsibility of showing the mer-people that surface dwellers can be trusted. If not, the mer-people intend to take over the planet. Upon their return to the surface, the woman tells the diver of her intent to end the threat by calling in the military, but the diver is not who he seems, and she has failed the test. 8 pages. "Pride of the Fleet" On this lush, jungle world, there is only one beast that man fears, the Rhunk, which cannot be killed. They have an experimental device to combat the Rhunk, an orb, which, when activated, changes a human into a Rhunk. There are only two existing devices, and one has been stolen. Now, the commander calls upon a warrior woman to retrieve the device and the AWOL private who is suspected of stealing it. It turns out that the woman has a history with this man, and there might be a trap set with revenge motives attached. 19 pages.
