Snippet #2556813

Suddenly, AMI opens a rift into interdimensional space and flies through, leaving nothing but a very vague energy signature in her wake. When scanned, that energy signature would appear to be three antimatter warheads, each with a collection of antimatter particles suspended in a weak stasis field set on a very short timer and shielded against any sort of electromagnetic interference. Another rift appears quite far off moments later and AMI appears back in realspace, wheeling around as inertia carries her backward, allowing her to watch the results of her efforts come to fruition.

After a little under ten seconds, the antimatter warheads detonate all at once, the stasis fields dropping and the antimatter tearing into anything it touches, creating a massive and powerful blast capable of turning matter into nothing in an instant. The blast is large enough to hit both of the frigates, but thankfully small enough to only graze the mining barge, taking out a small section of its armour but nothing more. Anything composed of matter within an explosion of that nature will be eliminated entirely, or at least take extreme damage. However, AMI's limited warhead stores were less full because of it, now, which makes her somewhat disgruntled. Well, at least there's no way any ship in that close a radius could survive a blast like that. That's one consoling thought.
