Details
A camera slowly pans over to a throne in a room, eventually revealing someone sitting in it. A man enters the room and walks slowly to the throne. The man (now referred to as Admiral) informs the person (now referred to as a supreme leader) in the throne of the successful engagement against the Liberty. When the supreme leader asks if the ship was destroyed, the Admiral says that the escape pods were launched and the Liberty was drifting to an asteroid. They destroyed the pods and watched the Liberty collide with the asteroid and then they jumped out. The DNC leader gets quite upset at this news and points out the AI is most likely still out there, waiting to be found by Terran Benevolence League ships. The order to find the AI is sent, and repairs begin to the DNC ships.

Back on the Liberty, Captain Firefox is awoken from cryo-sleep by the AI who informs him of the situation. After joking around a few times about a possible AI name, and referencing the fleet "legend" CaptainShack, he begins work on disassembling part of the Liberty most notably his quarters and different consoles in the ship.

After this, Firefox begins work on a new vessel he names the "Orca". It is mostly basic, with little to no armor plating and main components outside and exposed. During the construction of the ship, the AI theorizes that the DNC are the people that attacked them. The DNC was responsible for the Colonial Wars and after they lost they were destroyed. Or that's what they thought. The AI states, "Hitler was working on an Atomic Bomb in world war II.", thinking that the DNC completed a jump drive during the colonial wars. After this Captain and the AI, both inspect the ship and head away from the Liberty.
