I've been away from duty for a while because of another injury, so I thought I'd write in the patrol report to make up for it.

After a brief tour around the system, Nakamura-san found an Outcast Gunship which was heading towards Honshu jump hole. Nakamura-san alerted the rest of the patrol as she tailed the Gunship, transponder ID ' CPT.Parros ', while we rushed to the Jump Gate to cut in front of it.

We were directed to Shikoku system after the reports of pirate activity. Supposedly there were two pirate bombers, most probably affiliated to the Lane Hackers. KDS-Akisame headed to New Tokyo, in reserve in case we'd need support again.
