On a regular flight to New Tokyo "
Zuiryu" caught transponders of two KSP vessels who were chasing an alleged contrabandist. We moved in to render possible assistance. Unfortunately, the interceptor of the police was taken down. The police capital vessel disengaged upon collecting the life pod of the interceptor pilot. The contrabandist quickly retreated from the scene and our ship was not optimal for a pursue operation.
Apparently, these developments near Shinagawa station alerted local Blood Dragons patrol and we caught a lone bomber of the rebels in the vicinity. Yet again, not considering a lone snub-scale vessel a threat to the station, we left New Tokyo for Honshu, leaving the Dragons to the police. It was a surprise, when the Dragon bomber followed us together with a freelancer under a moniker "
Haiku Massacre". Living up to his name, the freelancer indeed made an honest attempt at declamation of his "poetry" which, to my not so sophisticated yet used to traditional Kusarian poetry ear sounded bland and lacking taste. He caught our attention, however, when his freighter interrupted the trade lane from New Tokyo -> Honshu jumpgate to Yukawa Shipyard in apparent assistance to the Dragons. Quite soon enough the dragon reinforcements arrived - another bomber and a lone capital ship, allegedly of "Togo" battleship class. Our luck was in early notification system which alerted the crew of "Zuikaku" stationed nearby. The combined force of "
Zuiryu" and "
Zuikaku" was sufficient to dispatch a bomber and the capital vessel. The remaining dragons, namely one of the two bombers from the beginning of the skirmish, as well as another bomber which came mid-fight, "
Raijin", retreated from the battle alongside the "poet"-freelancer. It seems, sole fascination with art is not enough to taunt the servants of the Emperor into making reckless mistakes during the fight. Or, perhaps, it was the supremacy of the incoming for assistance of IKN "Katsuragi". Regardless, the rebels were driven back and the order was restored.
In eternal servitude to His Imperial Majesty and the Empire of Kusari,
Koushaku Shimamori
