Message Beginning:
Esteemed members of the Bretonia Government,
I contact you today to inform of a situation currently unfolding upon the Liner Shetland which is serving your nation as a retrofitted hospital ship in the Newcastle system.
What initially appeared to be a technical issue has escalated into a potential sabotage or terrorist attack involving three suspects dressed as BAF crewmen taken aboard the ship shortly after a military action had occured in the system a few days prior.
Reports from my Security Director Kiko Saguma, indicate that one of the suspects has escaped custody shortly after the mysterious technical issues were resolved, in response the Liner has been placed under full lockdown and quarantine measures have been enacted. Communications beyond our own internal uplink have been reported as nonfunctional, I have advised Director Saguma to deploy our backup laser anntena to directly communicate with the Battleship MacDuff should the situation escalate further.
As yet we have no identity of the imposters, nor the motive behind the escape. We are currently operating under the assumption that these three individuals were responsible for the technical issues affecting the Shetland. Director Saguma has been ordered to take the individual alive should the opportunity present itself, however I have also given the authority for lethal force to be applied under the Director's judgement and fully accept the lawful consequences of those orders.
I have attached a transcript from our internal uplink for your perusal and will inform you of any further developments as they occur.
Good day everyone this is Director Kiko Saguma reporting to the Executive Board from Luxury Liner Shetland. Since my arrival due to the reports of the incident in New Castle there have been strange incidents happening on the Liner. Ranging from reactor fluctuation to full system failures. I am requesting we send our best engineers to see if the problem can be resolved.
Computer: ALERT! All systems down.
Reserve Oxygen: 90%
Back up power: 50%
Time to total failure 48 hours.
Damn it...please get them here fast ill do what I can from here.
Signed,
Kiko Saguma
Director of Security
Kiko Saguma here reporting in that all ship functions are restored....but there is something strange happening here Mr. Pines. After the incident some what near Shetland it seems we received three individuals claiming to be Bretonian Armed Forces, yet they seem to have no form of Identification on them. They also seem to be very confused and keep demanding transport to Planet New London. As part of protocol 9 I have placed them under guard in the medical ward to be evaluated. I have tried to contact the Armed Forces but our Comm's Relay is down and am only able to broadcast from our private channels. Until I receive further order's the three will remain under guard till.....
A man stumbles through the door.
Ma'am one of the three men you had placed under guard has escaped and we cannot locate him...
What do you mean escaped...never mind I am initializing protocol 5 lock this place down and secure the entrances to our clients aboard.
Yes Ma'am!
Computer: Attention! This is a mandatory lockdown. This is not a drill all personnel are to secure all passengers to sector 4. Again this is not a drill.
I apologize sir seems we have a crisis. If you can reach out to the Armed Forces we may need them to figure out was is happening with those individuals.
Kiko Saguma out.
