I got bored and figured that I might as well revive this a little.
If sidewinder and sintech don't like it, ok, I'll clear it.
Anyhow, here we go.
Oh and one last little note, the characters in here don't actually exist on the server and probably wont, though depending on the reaction i get off sin tech they might... Think of it as an audition to join :D

Planet new london, new london system, three weeks after the cambridge break-in and theft.
"Home clean, no sign of the data."
"Office clean too, no record of the data in target's terminal or the mainframe."
"Understood. Return to the transport and prep for launch."
"Thats it?"
"Well if it's not at the targets workplace or home then it must be on the target, or the target knows where it is."
"Makes sense."
"Exactly. Tom, Lou, see what you can do to slow do the authorities response times.
Gerry, Karl get into the traffic monitoring system and get ready to clear me a path to the spaceport if needed, or to jam it all up.
Sam, get us clearance to leave. Dave, get into the orbital traffic system and make sure theres no military patrols.
I'm not that eager to tangle with a battleship patrol on our way out."
The acknowledgements chorused back quickly and efficently.
"Once we have our launch window we'll be commited. At twenty minutes to launch I'll grab the target and run for the transport. While I'm inbound Tom and Lou will make sure the authorities have no clue as to where the target went. Then we'll wait and launch like all the other perfectly normal traffic."
"I've already got a cargo loaded to take to cambridge, no sense in not making alittle money." Sam said, "Our launch window is in forty-five minutes from... now."
"Noted, target is still in the shopping district."
"BS patrol now leaving, next one due in 55 minutes. No other military craft, the mollys are quiet today." Dave said.
To be continued...
"Twenty Five minutes until launch." Sam said.
"Target still in sight."
"Molly attack has just begun." Dave warned.
"Authorities responding... police and escorts only at the minute." Tom said.
"The military patrols are occupied with a corsair attack at the cambridge jumpgate." Lou confirmed.
"Traffic is still routine, no jams or congestion." Gerry said.
"Traffic snarl up ready and waiting." Karl cheerfully said.
"Then we're still good to go."
"I've just been asked if I'd like to launch earlier... shall we?" Sam asked.
"By how much?"
"Ten minutes."
"Go for it, I'll grab the target now."
"Screwing with the response times now." Tom declared.
"Initating traffic jams." Karl said.
"Target grabbed, returning to the transport."
"Twelve minutes to launch window."
"No pursuit, police still trying to get to the scene." Gerry reported.
"Mollys have been destroyed, police ships are landing on trafalar for repairs." Tom also reported.
"At spaceport perimeter."
"Hatch open and ready, no-ones around either." Sam said.
"Shutting hatch now."
"Confirming hatch is locked, ship is sealed."
"Traffic jams are being sorted, I had to get out of their mainframe." Karl apologised.
"Corsair attack has been beaten off, military ships returning to patrol duties." Lou reported.
"Five minutes to launch, no queries from authorites."
"Keep an eye out, we should be fine now."

Well? Whatda think SiN-Tech?
Could I continue RPing with these guys as a black ops or merc unit working for SiN-Tech?
If so I have a load of pictures to use for their Biographies.
And a character slot for their armoured transport too... it'd be called 'SiN-Tech_A-Trans07'
Oh, any other comments would be welcome,
Also any posts by SiN-Tech explaining all the horrible brain scans etc that'll be done to find out where the stolen data, and the freelancer who stole it, are (it's a reporter that got snatched so they won't be missed..)
(Reviving my old news thread.)

Omni Industries security forces has been spotted in about every edge world system,
mostly in Tau-37 and in the Sigma systems. Some Bounty Hunters claimed they saw
Omni transports carrying mining machinery into Sigma 17 and 19, they suspected Omni were
mining alien artifacts, but it is still unclear what is going on out there since they have refused
to give any comments.
Gordon Fox the Omni Industries CEO is back in Manhattan and was freed from his recent cardamine incident,
we have no information on how that happened. The medics said he was ok and did not get addicted to
the exotic orange powder.
The chief of Omni security Greg Weathers announced some of Omni's plans for thier mining businesses
in the Sigmas. Mr.Weathers:
"So far we've had no problems, GMG has given us permission to move our ships freely in
and out in thier areas. The Outcasts however did not greet us with open arms."

Asgard Warriors Capitalships attacks civilians in Edge Worlds
From the windows of Freeport 9 we witnessed an Asgard Warriors Battleship together with a Destroyer attacking an Omni vessel outside the station, the Omni ship fled due to being outnumbered and carried civilian passangers. It sent a report to the Omni HQ on planet Manhattan about the attack, Omni CEO Gordon Fox demanded an immediate explaination or he would bring them to court.
The Zoners of Freeport 9 was shocked over the attack, here is an angry Zoner:
Comment from Zoner Gary Bakers: "If they attack civilians I would reject thier "protection" in Theta, these kind of actions against civilians cannot be tolerated and we do not want any form of violence around here, this is neutral space for gods sake."
We also got information from an anonymous bounty hunter that AW has put a price on the Omni ship,
this could lead to war between the mega corporation and the AW mercenaries if someone does not stop it in time.
The chief of Omni Security Greg Weathers gave us a short comment: "The Omni pilots are trained to use guerilla tactics in combat, they are not some Liberty Rogues you play with."
We will keep you updated on this event, have a nice day.

[font=Franklin Gothic Medium][color=#CC0000]Incorporated war?
Today in Kusari there was a conflict between two corporations, Omni Industries and SiN Tech. At Aomori station a SiN Tech Frigate opened fire upon an Omni Transport, it called in Omni Security ships from
Sigma 13 and responded to the attack, seconds later managed to get the SiN Tech Frigate on the run, the Omni ships entered pursuit, after chasing it to Osaka they disrupted the Frigate at a trade lane, it was disabled and the Omni Security team finished the Frigate off.
Greg Weathers the Chief of Omni Security wants to comment;
"I'll give you the truth; Omni were hired by someone-we-don't-want-to-mention to destroy SiN Tech's Frigate, we set up a decoy at the Sigma 19 gate and ambushed it with our hireable Security Team. Anyway, thier Frigate fired the first shot when our decoy were about to leave the nebula. That's what happened in the cloud, that's how it went so nothing personal, it was all for the money.
Remember this; we only do stuff we see profitable, that was all I had to say.

"GNN's Brian Silleto again here at CRI with Mr Simon again." ...
"So you have seen the comment from Omni." ...
"Yeah and what a load of old bollocks that is ... Can't even lie with style. I shan't be changing my stance
after having to listen to that semi literate waffle. Gotta think we were born yesterday.
Well if they were stupid enough to take the 'money', though I doubt they saw a red cent, they will have
to live with the consequences. We can all play that game." ...

This is CNS news bringing you the lastest events!
Just this morning the SF forces were attacked by a mixed force of pirate groups, the UOG, a Rogue and a pair of Coalition bombers engaged the SF fleet outside planet New London. The RA bombers where first on scene then an UOG dreadnought arrives, then a Rogue battleship disengaged his cruise engines to fire upon the critically damaged SF Juggernaut. Later an SF gunboat entered the fight, but in vain, the SF was defeated after a short battle against the superior pirate battleships. The pirate force lost one Coalition bomber in the engagement, they all left the system leaving SF ship wrecks behind them.
On other news Liberty has dropped all hostilities against Omni Industries due to "good behaviour", the president
commented: "Omni has always been important to Liberty financially and it would be pitty if they turned over to the unlawful side." Omni Industries has not responded yet.
That was all for today, have a continously nice day!
