I have decided to create a few logs about my life after recently finishing pilot school, as I am expecting to find plenty of adventure out there in space. Also, in-case I go missing, someone might find these logs and find out what happened to me. Simply put, I am a 21 year old guy, born and raised on Planet Los Angeles by the name of David Brenson. My parents were killed by... Oh wait, they are still alive and kicking. Kicking my ass that is. It was thanks to them that I was forced into piloting school and handed 25,000 credits with which I was told to buy a ship. For that many credits, I could only get my hands on a Stargazer "Zap-em" package deal which came with 2 Advanced Debilitators, 2 Heavy Flashpoints and some other basics. Nothing fancy but hey, I only needed this thing to get me through pilot school. Or at least that's what I thought.
After graduating and being kicked out of the house by my wonderful parents, I realised that I still didn't have enough credits to purchase something better. I was told by one of my pilot school buddies that I should head over to a bar named Pink Liquorice and look for some simple jobs from the local police department. Pink Liquorice, a strange name for a place cops like hanging out in. Anyway, I took his advice and flew on over there to see if I could grab myself a decent job. After a few minutes of checking the job board in the bar, I decided on this one:
I was told this job should be easy for new pilots. That it was a simple blow up their base mission which didn't require me to eliminate any Liberty Rogues I encountered during this mission. Plus I was to receive backup as I arrived at the location. So all I had to do was get in there and blow up this base the Rogues have been working on while they were distracted with the LPI backup. Seemed pretty simple to me.
The Large Space Station as I was cruising in:
As I got nearer to the base, it managed to hit my shields with a pulse turret which instantly took them down. Luckily my backup had just arrived and the Rogue ships flew off in their direction, leaving me to take out that base! I hit it with all I got, which wasn't much.
The base's destruction:
Oh yeah, I blew that son of a gun completely away. But now the Rogue ships were on my tail and damaging my shields pretty quickly. The LPI units were no longer being engaged and were able to freely shoot at these guys. They were getting lit up pretty badly while I was dodging their fire as best I could. After gaining some distance, I hit my cruise engines and got the hell outta there. I wasn't being paid to destroy those ships so there was no way I would stick around for that battle.
After a couple minutes of cruising, I had managed to get back to the safety of Planet Los Angeles, where I docked and headed straight for the Pink Liquorice bar. I was still pretty shaken up from my first job of this kind so I walked on over to the bartender and asked for whiskey but he replied, "All we got is Liberty Ale".
