"We have Corsairs in Cambridge."
"What? Alright." "This is the Captain of the HMS Derby, All ships launch we have a Corsair invasion in Cambridge! Fighter support needed."
Austin smiled rushing to his fighter, he looked over and gave a thumbs up to Rockwell. "Ready to go?" Rockwell nodded as he climbed into his fighter, Austin did the same. A wing of Templar's and Paladin's launched from the Derby and headed towards Cambridge.
"I was ambushed at New London Gate in Cambridge, requesting assistance." Lt. Commander James Hobart said over the communications just as Austin entered the System.
"Moving to your location, Sir." A few more acknowledgments came over the communications also.
Minutes later Austin arrived at the Cambridge - New London gate "Targets.....not here...the hell is going on?"
Voices came over the speakers "They moved to Cambridge high orbit! Get here!" "Cambridge orbit! Just off the Research Station. Under heavy fight..Multiple target"
Austin nodded moving towards the tradelane, activating it, his ship shot down to the battle zone. "Engaging Corsair targets!" was his engagement notice, among a lot of different ones. After a few long minutes of fighting Armed Forces chased off the Omega Pirates Guild, fighters, only to be called back into the fight by Hispanian Armed Forces. Who didn't stand a chance.
Two Hours and Fifty minutes earlier
"Reports of Kusarian's in Leeds."
"Shall we? Maybe they're not cowards like the last bunch have been."
Planet Leeds - Stokes Lane Two Hours and Thirty Minutes Earlier
"So, do you chaps surrender?"
"Surrender? Never."
"Then what the bloody hell are you doing?"
No reply came...Two of the Kusari ships began moving, and at that note, Weapons where discharged and the fight begun, right off the bat Austin downed a Chimera fighter.
"Hah, nice one."
"That's one for me..I'm in a good mood today. Let's take the rest of these chaps down eh?"
The fighting lasted a decent while. During the climax of the fight a Kusarian Gunboat entered the combat zone, and was destroyed just as quickly. Only a Chimera and a Raven Talon remained, or so it seemed.
"Hah, if you think their easy, your going to have a hard time taking me out. Because I'm here to defend my honor." Said a Farmer over the communications.
"Why's that?"
"Honor! Haha! If I had a credit for everytime a Kusarian said that, I'd be rich."
The farmer replied back "You'll have a hard time with me because I'm in a light fighter." He sounded like he was silently laughing.
Over Secured Communications the Bretonians Laughed. "Target him when he gets here."
The Farmer entered the fight only to get wasted a minute. "Well that was rather easy, Eh chaps?" Austin said chuckling over the communications, at this point the last Chimera begun to flee. Oddly enough, he replied over the communications saying. "My Mission here is complete."
Which in itself is strange, For the Kusarians lost Three Chimera's, One Raven Talon, One Griffin, and one Gunboat. His mission was to get those chaps killed just so he could retreat? Funny. The Bretonian pilots just laughed and pulled out to go to Edinburgh. Only to be forced to either withdrawal or eject.
One Hour and Ten minutes Earlier - New Berlin System, Planetary Orbit of Planet New Berlin
"Hmm...Oh...a Rheinlander Military officer! Sweet!" Austin said, either a bit joyfully, one couldn't tell.
"Hello, Bretonian."
"Hm..Ma'am do you know a Police Officer by the name of...uhm...Lena, christ I forgot her last name.." Austin said mumbling. "Anyway's. If you know her could you tell her I said 'ello? Thanks." Before she could reply quickly enough, since she was still thinking, He entered the tradelane and left for Frankfurt, contemplating whether or not to go to Kusari space. Finally making up his mind, he decided to go to Kusari space. Two Bounty Hunters muttered over the communications about seeing a Bretonian ship with the Armed Forces transponder. Austin shook his head only to tell them he was off duty. That was that, or so he thought.
Upon entering New Tokyo, planet Fuji caught his eye, an electrical storm was going on in the upper atmosphere, which...Austin has never seen from space. It looked beautiful. So while his ship drifted in orbit of the Fuji, a Chimera approached from behind...
Forty Minutes Earlier - New Tokyo System, Planetary Orbit of Planet Fuji.
"Engaging Bretonian Spy!"
"I may be in civilian attire, but I do know how to fight." Austin said turning his ship tightly, managing to get behind the Kusarian Attacker. "I've fought on the front. I know what I'm doing, chap." Austin muttered into the communications mic while letting a burst of tachyon and particles discharge from weapons.
The fight lasted a good twenty minutes, the Kusarian barely managed to drop his shields. Austin on the other hand dropped the shields countless of times. He actually felt bad for this rookie. "Chap, we know whose going to win this battle. Wouldn't it of been better to arrest me instead? I would of came quietly.."
Shortly the Kusarian ship stopped firing and made two attack paths before cutting it's engines. "Fine...your under arrest, Bretonian."
Austin sighed as he disabled his weapons and got into formation with the Kusarian. The young chap must of been new, for he was extremely quiet, aside from the heavy breathing. "You did good for your first fight." Austin said, no reply. "Honestly...next time don't randomly stop moving and try to hit me, I'll just find openings." Still no reply, Austin nodded and was quiet for the remaining trip.
Two minutes after the fight they arrived in Shikoku, and proceeded past planet Junyo to Fuchu Prison station.
"Here we are...your ship will be locked down, and the Guards don't sleep on duty." the young kusarian replied, finally. Austin only chuckled muting his communications as his ship was put into docking.
"Right, I'll take this out with me...oh one more thing.."

Twenty Minutes Earlier
The communications chip Austin pulled out of the ship crackled to life. "Goodman, Goodie, you there?" Austin looked at the black chip and stared before replying back "Rockwell is that you?" He knew the voice sounded familiar. "Aye, it is. What's going on? Why am I getting this transceiver from Kusari? You didn't get...." Austin stopped him.
"Yeah, I got captured. Long story really..."
Rockwell chuckled over the communications. "I'm going to get you out, Alright? Don't go any where. Like you can anyways."
Austin muttered "Har, har very funny. Make sure you bring..*static* weapons, I think they're trying to pinpoint this transmission. Surprised they didn't yet."
Rockwell chuckled again over the communications. "Who else did you tell you've been captured?"
"Hobart, but...he's probably going to laugh it off and forget the next day. Like always." Austin said sighing lightly. Still wondering why they didn't end the transmission yet.
"Yeah probably. Anyway's I'll bring you some supplies, mate. See you in a good twenty minutes or so."
Fuchu Prison
Now
Twelve minutes after Rockie left, Austin already dismantled a small compartment and stuck items there. "Right...thank you Rockie. Only blasted person I can trust at the moment." He said taking his hand and placing it on the wound that he received earlier for insulting a Kusarian guard.
Austin leaned on the wall and looked up at the ceiling, then pulled out the map Rockwell gave him. "So this is my escape path...Lovely...good thing I know how to run." He said as he laughed lightly and placed the map back in his pocket, just as another Guard came.
"...Pathetic Gaijin fools. Never eat the food we give you. Why exactly?" The Guard said pointing at the bowl of sushi knocked over.
"I'm not a bloody fool, squinty. I know you lace your food with Cardamine, why else would you feed me such crap?" Austin said staring at the guard. Who only laughed and continued with his duty.
