Capture the Chronovore! (audio story)
Capture the Chronovore! was the second story in the audio anthology Nemesis Express, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Lizbeth Myles and featured Eric Roberts as the Bruce Master, Chase Masterson as Vienna Salvatori and Teri Ann Bobb-Baxter as Passion.
Publisher's summary
Vienna and Passion pursue the Master, but to find out what he's up to they must find a way through the ship's classier compartments.
With their weapons confiscated and champagne on ice, they're invited to join an exclusive shooting party, hunting the Vortex's great game - Chronovores! - and the Master is most definitely dressed for the occasion.
Plot
Whilst shooting Chronovores in the Time Vortex from a shielded platform, the Master deactivates the Hunt-Master's shield and allows him to be killed by one of the creatures to create a job opening. Princess Natalia visits Dr Miroy to discuss his temporal cannon after hearing Commodore Blixen and Mr Chule discussing weapons for use in their Chronovore hunts, but he considers the hunts pointless.
Vienna and Passion hotwire their way along the Kairos with the aim of accessing the surveillance systems at the control seg and locating the Master. They use a ventilation duct to avoid the Sparks and reach the second-class segs, finding that Vienna has been authorised to enter the Ammonite seg with a companion as of three minutes prior. After handing over their weapons, Vienna and Passion join a reception.
