Hello, I am Wanderman of WF&M, a new shipping and mining company. As of now I have had only one encounter with your people, and that ended smoothly enough. I write this because I, and my company regularly ship food, oxygen, pharmacuticals, and water to your bases. All that I ask is that any ship flying WF&M tags be left alone to do normal business. As we are strictly a Libertonian company and deal only in Libertonian comodities and products this should not be an imposition. While WF&M ships only legal products I am sure that we can have a fruitful and peaceful relationship.
Well now I just picked up your transmission on my comms. I don't make any decision's but I'll be sure to pass the word on to those who do. It's not very hopeful since you also supply some of our enemies. They too are native to Liberty space.. like the Rogues. Besides that you supply Hackers, Junkers and Outcasts. Don't keep your fingers crossed.
XA-Naja out.
A young woman appears on the screen. Blue hair and a skin, as white as flour. She looks rather innocent. Not like a miner, nor like a Xenos.
Hello Mister.. what was your name again?She looks at a couple of papers, lying at her desk Ah well.. Not that important i guess. Ya i got yer ship's ID's, that's all i need to know.
Look mister, yer comin' with an interesting request.
Did ya really expect us to say "yes" to tha whole thing?
As my buddy Naja here mentioned before, you're also supplying the Nerds, the orange dream dreamin' ones and.. hell what a surprise. The Junkers aswell?
So let me get this straight boi. Ye want us to trust in a man that's supplying our enemies?
What kind of food will ya deliver? Explosive chicken nuggets? Poisoned synth meat?
Look hon'. Now that we know who ya are, ye better avoid our bases at all costs.
We better never meet in space, it won't end well son!
XA-Coral
After that being said, a loud noise is being heard and the screen turns black. The com device probably accidently hit a wall
Miss Coral, your organization has so few allies that it's not even worth mentioning them. If WF&M wanted you or any member of your orgainization dead we would simply hire a group of mercenaries to fly in and wipe you out. Instead of doing that we are trying to extend the hand of neihborly good will, if nothing else. Of course we trade with your enemies, all you have are enemies. It is impossible for us not to trade with your enemies and still feed, clothe, and house our workers and thier families.
You have an opportunity here. Make another enemy in a land that is already beyond hostile to you, or, have a group that is not only not shooting at you, but supplying your people with food, water, air, and medicine. Are our aims that different? You want people to put Liberty and Liberty workers and products first, to weed out foreign elements. We are a company that employs Liberty workers, deals only in Liberty and only in Liberty products. If you attack us, the epitome of what you say you stand for, what do your stated views really mean to you?
As it stands WF&M would also like to extend to your organization a way to make an extra credit or two to spend on outfitting thier ships and feeding thier families. If, when they attack Rogues, and only Rogues, they yell WF&M as well as everything else they have to say, and get a recording of it, we will pay them 250k. Thats right, we will pay your pilots 250 thousand credits for merely mentioning our company. You see, your information is not entirely correct. We do deal with Hackers and Junkers and the occaisional outcast, but only because if we do not they kill our workers. WF&M puts the wellfare of it's workers as it's highest priority, so we deal with those organizations so they do not kill us. The Rogues though, we can not come to an accord with. Them we fight. We are not warriors, just workers and thier families. Your cry of WF&M would not only raise the hopes of the people of Liberty, but bring home a lesson to the Rogues. When you attack Libertonians, Libertonians come together no matter thier differences to silence that aggression.
Pitviper got called to his office where an open transmission channel was waiting for him. A rumor had reached him that there are some new fools in Liberty who were trying to strike a deal with the Xenos. He sat at his desk and, with a wide cold grin on his face replied to the transmission..
[color=#000000]"Now you listen to me 'Mr.Nobody'. You openly admit that you are supplying our enemies? You offer us bribes? After you think that that will fail, you threaten us? Say you are going to wipe us out?"
He started to laugh coldly for a few minutes, then he stopped, calmed himself and smashed his fist on the table..
"Now you listen to me you pathetic little fool. You are nobody and your organization is nothing. We will not take any filth money from you, we will not strike deals with fools. You speak of wiping us out? You have no idea how far and long is the reach of the Serpents. Supplying those fools that are Hackers, Rogues and Junkers. You will never get away with it. Never!!"
He then started to talk in a more calm, scary voice..
"All of your ships that trade with foreigners will be stopped, they will be inspected, they will be asked to drop their cargo. If they refuse, the pilots will be shot, escorts and ships will be destroyed. If you will have the Rogues or any other scum in Liberty with you, the Serpent venom will strike through their hearts more swiftly then you can yell for help. We will protect the interests of Liberty, of our nation. And that interest does NOT involve your foreign trade. As for your miners in Liberty, they will be left alone if they will act accordingly to our wishes. We will not take jobs from them as they work for this nation, but if they are found taking these goods outside of our country, they will pay dearly. "
Just as he was ready to cut the transmissions he adds one more thing with a cold grin on his face..
"Oh and, if I hear or see you threatening or attempting to bribe the Serpents again in such a manner, we will find you, and we will make you disappear."
He then smashes his fist on the console to cut the transmission.
First, WF&M did not threaten. I showed that WF&M is not without force, but did not threaten. In fact my words showed quite clearly that we did not want to threaten. Miss Coral accused us of wanting to send poison supplies and I showed that WF&M does not work that way. We would not kill the innocent children on your bases with poison simply to get your pilots. You threatened us, not the other way around.
Second, you have no allies and only enemies. It is impossible, literally, for us not to trade with your enemies. You are enemies with every faction and group, excepting us, in Liberty. If WF&M doesn't sell to the Millitary, other Liberty companies, and the residents of Liberty, who are we supposed to trade with? Are your pilots going to escort every one of our shipments to protect us from the Junkers, Hackers, Rogues, and Outcasts? Untill they can be removed, we have no choice but to sell to them. We do not buy thier foreign trash, merely sell them the meanest and lowest quality foods and necessities to keep them from killing our people. You are the warriors of the people, you are there to drive out the foreign elements. But untill you do, we must endure them as best we can. If all Libertonians suicided instead of trading, as you seem to be suggesting, then there would be no workers left in your Free Liberty.
Third, we don't transport anything but Liberty goods. We don't trade anywhere but Liberty. We employ Liberty citizens. We fly Liberty ships and use Liberty equipment. We are exactly what you say you are trying to protect. If you attack us, and WF&M shall make it widely known when you do, you will show sirius that your claims are just self-justifications to allow you to pirate and really mean nothing. You will be showing everybody that you aren't out to make Liberty strong or protect the workers of Liberty. You are just pirates like all the others. Is that what you are, Mr. Pitviper, just pirates whose "cause" is just a cover to take from the good people of Liberty?
He sat at his desk and laughed for a minute at the sheer blindness of the man that sent him a new transmission. He then replied, again, with a cold grin on his face that suggested anger.
"The Xenos needn't friends that can spread only lies, Mr.Nobody. The Xenos have the power of truth and freedom at their disposal, as well as the free people of Liberty who are ready to fight oppression. As for the other scum such as Outcasts, Junkers and Rogues that bother you, let me say this. You can blame the so called "Peacekeeping forces" for that. This just proves how competent they are, and if you are selling to that pirate scum to protect your own skin rather then to protect Liberties interest's then you are nothing but traitors to yourself and your country. By doing that, you are nothing but a nuisance to the Serpents."
"Now, let me make this perfectly clear to you, yes? You will NOT be on the good side of the Xenos as long as you trade with the low-life of our nation, and as long as you strike deals with them you are nothing but a thorn at our side. As long as the men who work and mine for you, sell their goods to the people of Liberty, and NOT to other scum, they will POSSIBLY be left alone, if they meet our demands. Sometimes you must protect your child from himself, with harsh discipline and sometimes, punishment. We are not your friendly neighbors dogs that you can order around and throw a cookie so it would be happy."
"We are the Xenos, we are the free weapons of justice, and we are watching you."
Well, well now we've heard some replies from the decision makers around here.
Tell ya what, if I come across your groups ships, I'll keep in mind how you want to help us out as I have them drop all their cargo to fill the hold of my X-Shuttle.
I'll take what I can back to our people, they'll appreciate that. I'll also destroy what I can't take
, just to keep it out of the hands of our enemies.
So everytime I see them, I'll come to collect for us and get your generous supplies. *laughs*
So in the end you will be suppling our bases, just not the way you originally intended.
So tell your pilots when they see us coming to drop their cargo for us, and we'll be nice and take it back to our bases. Otherwise we'll carve a hole into the sides of your ships and get the cargo that way, leaving your pilots floating in the void of space.
XA-Naja out.
And so you prove it. You are not patriots, you are not defenders of the people of Liberty. You are merely rabid dogs. So be it. The workers of Liberty will not accept parasites such as yourselves. Our previous conversation will be made known to the workers of Liberty, the lies you tell sirius exposed. You are not defenders of the workers, you prey upon them and revel in it. You are worse than rogues. Trash, and like trash, any of your ships that enter the vicinity of WF&M Shipping will be taken out. And I will tell you, as I told the Rogues. We will ship to your bases. You cannot stop us. We will use middlemen, but the goods that you purchase will be ours, the money you spend will fill our coffers. WE are liberty, and with every breath you take, meal you eat, and drink you swallow, you will buy your own death. You see, those credits will be used exclusively to hire Liberty warriors to kill your pilots. In the end, you will pay your own bounties.
As he was listening to the transmission he started to laugh. He recorded it and sent it to the bar so that the boys could get a good kick off it, and that they did. It was demonstrating the sheer stupidity one man can accomplish, and then he proceeded to reply...
[color=#000000]"We are not the defenders of the people of Liberty? We -are- the people of Liberty, we are the voice of truth, the sound reason, the weapon of justice."
"You will speak to the workers of Liberty? We are the workers of Liberty, we gave and still give our lives for the benefit of our nation. Our sweat is the sweat of the free people of Liberty that give their lives for an honest job, for a honest life without corruption and foreign interests."
"The lies we tell Sirius? We do not speak to Sirius, we speak to the men, women and children of Liberty that are willing to listen to reason, we speak to the honest workers that are under oppression by fat foreign traders, to the little man who is being crushed by big corporations. Our land is our own, and we will protect it."
He then pauses for a moment and grins coldly..
"You call us trash? You are the trash that slows the advancement of our nation, and as trash you will be treated. The men and women that work for you and under your whip will be liberated, this company of which you speak of will crumble as have many others, we have survived and surpassed much worse then you. Your shipments will be taken out and the pilots that refuse to turn away from your path of destruction will be shot."
"We are these middlemen of which you speak of, the supplies you ship will go to us and will then be distributed where they should be in the first place, our nation. The money of which you speak will not fill your coffers, it will fill the coffers of those Libertonians that have no food on the table because men like you. We are the warriors of Liberty, we are the weapons of freedom and truth. Just as the politicians of our nation fail in leading it, so shall you fail in your childish threats. You cannot escape truth and justice, the Serpents will visit you soon enough. Then you can make company to your precious Rogues and other scum, for you will be sharing the same pit with them."
The screen then fades into darkness and Pitviper dissapears, but just as the transmission is cut, a fading voice in the background is heard...."Send out a patrol, show them that they threatened the wrong people...."
The transmission then ends.
