In a distant corner of the galaxy, an unlikely hero will face his worst nightmares in a desperate attempt to head off an impending disaster.
As an SCV pilot, Vance was skilled in the fine art of tactical retreat - or "fleeing" as some might call it. It wasn't heroic, but his training had kept him alive many times. Now the sole survivor of a vicious attack by the Zerg, Vance follows protocol and stays on the move. But when he is unexpectedly thrown together with a misfit group they must band together to survive, and the pilot finds himself fighting his instincts to face the biggest decision of his life.
This time, he will be a hero.
