Cutthroats
You are a daring deep-sea diver holed up on Hardscrabble Island, a dying little seaport all but forgotten. The tiny island offers little in the way of entertainment or diversions, and diving off the treacherous reefs has long since lost its charm. So when a note is slipped under your bedroom door offering you the opportunity of a lifetime, you're ready to take the plunge. True, your cohorts are untrustworthy. Granted, keeping the sunken treasure a secret is practically impossible on such a small island. Naturally, diving alone in new areas is danger- ous. But if you can keep your head and get the treasure, the riches will more than offset the risks you have to take.

But suppose that jumbo fortune cookie you got at Qwang's Take-Out Asteroid last shore leave was right. Maybe you will indeed narrowly escape disaster. It's even possible that you'll actually travel to an unknown corner of the Universe, where you'll save a doomed planet- or die in the attempt. In fact, we'll guarantee it - every crumb of it - because that's just the way the cosmic cookie crumbles.
