[WIP] Minutes to Launch Ch. 1-2 (Patreon)

Some of you will recognize part of this from earlier, but I finally got the next bit sorted out. There will be one more chapter after this, then I'll do an editing pass to work out the kinks. Let me know what you thought!

Blurb: In a distant future, humanity thrives on colony ships in space. Unknown to most, there is an effort to find a new home led by a trio of war machines whose very existence is classified to the highest level. The machines have a habit of destroying their pilots, literally rendering them down to primordial soup, but they're also the best weapon against the unknown. 

Today, Gamma-Six will be undertaking her first, and likely last, sortie.
