Joe Raison

[Dimon]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After two bottles of whiskey, Raison decided to make small trip to the Magellan system, but as soon as he launched to the space he met Avril Parker. Joe was really interested what Avril was doing in Vespucci, their chat looked weird, as Joe badly understands Technology and Hacks and he didn’t thought that meeting with Avril might end really bad for him.

System: Vespucci
Joe.Raison:: Hm... The base gone
Joe.Raison:: Oh!
Joe.Raison:: Avril
Avril.Parker:: Huh?
Avril.Parker:: Who where what?
Joe.Raison:: Ah. Its Joe
Avril.Parker:: Oh. You. Puh! Already thought they will kick me out now.
Joe.Raison:: Wha'?
Joe.Raison:: Who?
Avril.Parker:: The Legion of course.
Avril.Parker:: Forgot? Traitor and all that crap.
Joe.Raison:: Which one... Primary?
Avril.Parker:: Hey, excuse me for a second. Have to finish something here.
Avril.Parker:: Aha... ya, the Primary.
Joe.Raison:: Wha' are you doin' with this Satellite?
Avril.Parker:: Nothing, nothing.
Joe.Raison:: Com'on, I'm not from Primary Fleet, yet... You can tell me
Avril.Parker:: Did you knew they have not updated their security tracers?
Joe.Raison:: No. I didn't
Avril.Parker:: It is ridicilous easy to check the channels.
Joe.Raison:: Damn
Avril.Parker:: Oh dear, their new guys doing all the security deals are really some amateurs.
Joe.Raison:: Huh, so... There is a traitor inside the Legion?
Avril.Parker:: And yap, seems that station is gone. As quick as it came up.
Avril.Parker:: Obviously there is. You know, me.
Avril.Parker:: Ahoy.
Joe.Raison:: Ehey
Avril.Parker:: 'Merica station now, there was some Fleet at the Ravager.
Joe.Raison:: Right.
Joe.Raison:: How did you...? Contactd' me?
Avril.Parker:: Heh?
Joe.Raison:: So?
Avril.Parker:: Hoh!
Avril.Parker:: So what you have been doing these days?
Joe.Raison:: How did you contacted' my Prosecutor?
Avril.Parker:: You really ask me that? I mean... me?
Avril.Parker:: Like, really?
Joe.Raison:: I didn't gave you codes
Joe.Raison:: Or...?
Avril.Parker:: Nope.
Joe.Raison:: I dun' remember
Avril.Parker:: Oh come on, Joe. You talk about me.
Joe.Raison:: When?
Avril.Parker:: I managed to send Illaria a message right on her console.
Joe.Raison:: Oh.
Joe.Raison:: And?
Avril.Parker:: You think getting into your Prosecutors enclosed frequencies would be any difficult?
Avril.Parker:: Gee.
Joe.Raison:: You asked what have I doing the last few days?
Avril.Parker:: Yup.
Joe.Raison:: Well...
Joe.Raison:: I tried to remake my rank
Avril.Parker:: So?
Avril.Parker:: Back to the Legion, hm?
Joe.Raison:: From Ex-Fleet Commander into Fleet Commander of Legion.
Joe.Raison:: Yea
Joe.Raison:: No-one answered
Avril.Parker:: Yea... leave me all alone out there then again.
Avril.Parker:: Not that I am not used to people doing that.
Joe.Raison:: I felt myself like... I spoke to myself
Avril.Parker:: They are busy. Might answer in time I think. It is you after all.
Avril.Parker:: I shot them a message too, some days ago. Wanted to know how things are going.
Avril.Parker:: You at least can expect an answer.
Avril.Parker:: Somewhen.
Joe.Raison:: I really... Don' know what to do.
Avril.Parker:: Buy me something!
Joe.Raison:: *Giggels*
Joe.Raison:: And wha' do you want?
Joe.Raison:: I... don't remember what I was doing yesterday.
Avril.Parker:: I would to have one of the Vtech Storage Devices they got on Leniex.
Joe.Raison:: Whi...skey *he whispered*
Avril.Parker:: No. Not whiskey.
Avril.Parker:: Whiskey is not a storage device.
Joe.Raison:: Oh? I actually told to myself
Avril.Parker:: Oh, Hokay.
Avril.Parker:: Hey, give me one more moment here, would you.
Joe.Raison:: I drunk some whiskey yesterday, and don't remember what was after...
Avril.Parker:: Tada.
Avril.Parker:: Hehehe.
Joe.Raison:: Wha'?
Avril.Parker:: Oh... hokay look.
Avril.Parker:: I uploaded on that satellite a program that will reroute itself to the satellite at that other planet...
Avril.Parker:: Not Guadalajara. That other one.
Avril.Parker:: Indi-something.
Joe.Raison:: Which one...?
Avril.Parker:: The satellite there really is protected good. Could not get past the firewall.
Avril.Parker:: Looks like something the former Legion-AI did.
Avril.Parker:: Tough stuff.
Avril.Parker:: Anyways... from this satellite I can route me into the other satellite, heh. Backdoor-tracking.
Joe.Raison:: Ouh. Interesting.
Joe.Raison:: Now what?
Avril.Parker:: And get me some of the cool informations I want to have of that Indi-something planet.
Avril.Parker:: Told you, the security system they got these days is a freaking joke.
Joe.Raison:: I...
Avril.Parker:: You...?
Joe.Raison:: I... Don' know how to...
Joe.Raison:: Say that, but...
Avril.Parker:: Aha?
Joe.Raison:: Arh. Nevermind
Avril.Parker:: Okay.
Joe.Raison:: So. Can you tell me, what Serbanu plannin'?
Avril.Parker:: No. I would love to find that out.
Avril.Parker:: But those files are damn well protected.
Joe.Raison:: What if... We'd destroy the Satellite?
Avril.Parker:: Hey Joe, say... they will take you in again, I have no doubt in that.
Avril.Parker:: Hey! Do not destroy my satellites. I need them.
Avril.Parker:: Why you would want to do that?
Joe.Raison:: They... Won't get me in
Avril.Parker:: Huh?
Joe.Raison:: Indeed.
Avril.Parker:: Oh come on. Of course they will let you in again.
Avril.Parker:: Why should they not?
Joe.Raison:: Nah. They won't
Joe.Raison:: I really, don't know why
Joe.Raison:: Sandera used to be... Good one as leader
Avril.Parker:: Oh. Michaela is leading?
Joe.Raison:: Didn't know that?
Avril.Parker:: Nobody tells me anything.
Joe.Raison:: I was impressed too
Avril.Parker:: And cannot find out everything over the more illegal ways.
Avril.Parker:: Hey last time I saw her, she was a recruit.
Avril.Parker:: YES! I am in.
Joe.Raison:: Yeah. Last time I saw her she was... Major I guess
Avril.Parker:: Goddess I am the best.
Avril.Parker:: So, excuse me a moment. Have to set the download list.
Avril.Parker:: Ohoh...
Avril.Parker:: Ouch!
Joe.Raison:: What?
Avril.Parker:: Ehm... Sarah? Could you please, like? Yes?
Avril.Parker:: [Looks like a feedback]
Joe.Raison:: Am.
Joe.Raison:: Avril
Joe.Raison:: Satellite...
Joe.Raison:: Its... Looking broken
Joe.Raison:: Really, what did you do?
Avril.Parker:: [[We] take Avril has to take a break for the moment]
Avril.Parker:: [A feedback from the software stored within the second satellite gone through to her neural-uplink]
Joe.Raison:: Sure. Sarah? Check the Satellite.
Avril.Parker:: [Heh. Lucky girl she is. A second later and she would look just like that.]
Avril.Parker:: [Yes. The feedback must've itched the firewall to overload the internal systems on that one]
Avril.Parker:: [Such things happen]
Avril.Parker:: Uh...
Avril.Parker:: [Everything fine, babe?]
Avril.Parker:: I guess... my head. Ouchy.
Joe.Raison:: Ah. All systems normall again I guess...
Avril.Parker:: Eww... AH! Frakk, that burns.... HOLY! *clips out the memory-card off her neck*
Avril.Parker:: Christs sake.
Joe.Raison:: What?
Joe.Raison:: What was that?
Avril.Parker:: Look at this! *shows the card on the comm-screen*
Avril.Parker:: Totally wasted! Burnt out. Ruined.
Joe.Raison:: What 'le hell is that? Looking like some Card, it is...?
Avril.Parker:: Frakk. You know how expensive those are?
Avril.Parker:: And hell I know when the last backup was. Lets hope I still got the access to the satellite network clouded.
Avril.Parker:: Oh, that? That is, hm... that was my memory-card.
Joe.Raison:: A... Its... I don't have it
Joe.Raison:: Maybe It's Sarah's thing? Or...?
Joe.Raison:: Hold on.
Joe.Raison:: I want to try something....

[Legion Satellite Exploded]

Joe.Raison:: Ups... I did something wrong?
Joe.Raison:: Don't tell me... That was... Explode...
Joe.Raison:: Damn
Joe.Raison:: *He looked worry*
Avril.Parker:: Huh?
Joe.Raison:: Avril. Lets... Better
Joe.Raison:: Run
Avril.Parker:: Hey... was there not a satellite supposed to be?
Avril.Parker:: Uhm.
Avril.Parker:: Yea. Lets go.
Avril.Parker:: I like that idea.
Joe.Raison:: Where to..?
Avril.Parker:: Just away.
Avril.Parker:: Before they realize what happened.
Avril.Parker:: I will just say it already was like that.

[Jumping system-activated]
[…Jumping…]

System: Magellan
Avril.Parker:: Barrier Gate.
Joe.Raison:: Uh.
Avril.Parker:: The only safe place I know.
Avril.Parker:: Or you have a better idea?
Joe.Raison:: There is one barman. I know him, don' tell anybody that I used to be Legionnaire
Joe.Raison:: At last I worked there.
Avril.Parker:: They know I used to be a Legionnaire too.
Joe.Raison:: A. Well, lets just get away
Avril.Parker:: But since I knifed that one guy for trying to get at me, the people there stay away from my stuff.

[Jumping system-activated]
[…Jumping…]

System: Cortez
Avril.Parker:: And yes, you eventually will not have such a memory-card, that is right.
Avril.Parker:: But tell you, it is a nice thing to have.
Avril.Parker:: Records all your movement, and tracks your net-activity, scans the environment and stores all information.
Joe.Raison:: And. There is record how I broke satellite?
Avril.Parker:: Oh, you broke that thing? I thought this was a reaction to the feedback before.
Joe.Raison:: Actually... I tried one thing
Avril.Parker:: And no, doubt there is a record of that. My card melted away before this happened.
Joe.Raison:: It was too close to the America base.
Avril.Parker:: Hm, What you tried?
Avril.Parker:: I am the technician here. So I wonder what you did, heh.
Joe.Raison:: To connect... To the Leniex, like Lane Hackers did
Joe.Raison:: But...
Avril.Parker:: Bad idea.
Joe.Raison:: They was doing it on Lanes... And I tried the satellite
Avril.Parker:: I do not think this has anything to do with where you tried it from.

[Jumping system-activated]
[…Jumping…]

System: Coronado
Joe.Raison:: Avril?
Avril.Parker:: Aye?
Joe.Raison:: Now what?
Avril.Parker:: Not sure. Well, at least I am not sure what you are going to do now.
Avril.Parker:: I guess I will keep on with what I did before. Surviving, sort of.
Joe.Raison:: I know...
Joe.Raison:: First.
Joe.Raison:: I wanted to say...
Joe.Raison:: I like you
Joe.Raison:: Not just as... Mhm... Well, I guess you understood?
Joe.Raison:: And... I'll drink some whiskey
Joe.Raison:: Will talk to my old friends here
Avril.Parker:: What?
Joe.Raison:: Eh...?
Avril.Parker:: Heh? Understand what? Yap, like you too. Though, I also liked Illaria once, that witch.
Joe.Raison:: I meant...
Joe.Raison:: I love you...
Avril.Parker:: E-- ... uh...
Joe.Raison:: Well...
Avril.Parker:: You okay?
Joe.Raison:: Maybe not
Joe.Raison:: I really don't know what happend today.
Joe.Raison:: Know that Legion will hunt my ass
Avril.Parker:: No why should they?
Joe.Raison:: I broke the satellite
Avril.Parker:: Just say I broke that satellite. They will believe it.
Joe.Raison:: No.
Joe.Raison:: I enter my codes
Avril.Parker:: It is much more convenient that I broke it.
Avril.Parker:: Oh come on. Getting your codes is the least difficult thing to do.
Joe.Raison:: Avril. Don't make the Legion hunt you.
Joe.Raison:: Since Sandera leads Legion, they won't hunt you anyway.
Avril.Parker:: So what?
Avril.Parker:: They failed before under Illaria. And they failed before Illaria already to do so.
Avril.Parker:: Look. I know how to survive. At least... somehow.
Avril.Parker:: [Somehow being the keyword here]
Avril.Parker:: Shut up Sarah.
Joe.Raison:: You told something about...

[Raison’s transponder stopped working]

Avril.Parker:: Hey what you did?
Joe.Raison:: Mh?
Avril.Parker:: Your transponder seems broken. Let me fix that.
Avril.Parker:: Hey... what is that.
Joe.Raison:: Erm?
Avril.Parker:: Hey you do not read as Legion at all anymore.
Joe.Raison:: Don't make me more scary
Avril.Parker:: The hell you just did? JOE!
Avril.Parker:: Are you freaking insane?
Joe.Raison:: I? Nothing!
Avril.Parker:: That way you will provoke them expelling you. And then what?
Joe.Raison:: Again. Transponder broken why?
Joe.Raison:: How can I fix it?
Avril.Parker:: You show not as one of my colour anymore. And I know I still show as Legion. Yep, I am that good I could keep that flag up.
Avril.Parker:: And your... your ships tracer-signals do not read your Legion-codes anymore.
Joe.Raison:: How? How can it be possible?
Avril.Parker:: The hell I know what you did.
Joe.Raison:: Damn! I did nothing!
Avril.Parker:: Well, they cannot have done it.
Avril.Parker:: To change your tracer-signals you have to replace the idend-card on your ships console.
Joe.Raison:: A... What? I don't know where this card on my ship
Joe.Raison:: The hell?
Joe.Raison:: My weapon does not working
Avril.Parker:: Uh... right infront of you. Next to the navigation console, right under the engine-monitoring.
Joe.Raison:: I guess I found it.
Avril.Parker:: On the underside of that.
Joe.Raison:: This thing is flasing
Joe.Raison:: Red color
Avril.Parker:: There is a card-slot. Ayup, flashing is good. Red is not.
Avril.Parker:: Should be blue.
Joe.Raison:: There is... Two cards
Avril.Parker:: Impossible.
Joe.Raison:: A... How to explain...
Avril.Parker:: This just works with one. Two is definitely not correct.
Joe.Raison:: Like one card is in other one...
Joe.Raison:: It flasing white
Joe.Raison:: I don't know but... Hold on.
Avril.Parker:: Eh,... not good.
Joe.Raison:: It started as only we arrived to Barrier
Avril.Parker:: Still means there must have been someone changing it on your ship.
Avril.Parker:: This is actual hardware. This needs to be done manually.
Joe.Raison:: After my Cutlass burned up. One trader captured my pod, and dropped me on Barrier.
Joe.Raison:: I had to get my Porsecutor somehow
Joe.Raison:: I told you I had some Inform'ers
Joe.Raison:: He is my agent inside Legion, Primary one
Avril.Parker:: Christs sake. Alright, we will fix that at some later point. Nothing I cannot bybass.
Avril.Parker:: Even if I have to override your current logfile, not a problem. It is not that I have not done it with mine too.
Joe.Raison:: Wait.
Avril.Parker:: Not going anywhere.
Joe.Raison:: The hardware started flasing green
Avril.Parker:: Still cannot see a change on your transponder, for a start.
Joe.Raison:: and the Ident-card stopped flasing
Avril.Parker:: Ey, just pull that card out finally.
Avril.Parker:: I think it is rewriting your tracer-signals, and the more it does that, the longer it will take me to fix it.
Joe.Raison:: Lemme try to do it.
Avril.Parker:: Just rip it off. With violence if you need.
Joe.Raison:: *Raison pulling the Ident-card*
Avril.Parker:: Ehm...
Joe.Raison:: Damn
Joe.Raison:: I can't
Avril.Parker:: Ouch.
Joe.Raison:: It's like, stuck'd
Avril.Parker:: I said pull the card off, not hit the mine deploy key.
Avril.Parker:: Christ, I will do it. On Barrier. Later.
Joe.Raison:: Ups.
Avril.Parker:: I will go like... over here for a moment, aye.
Joe.Raison:: Maybe I should try to pull off the Hardware, dunno how
Joe.Raison:: *Joe takes gun*

[Raison’s Prosecutor exploded]

Joe.Raison:: Hell
Joe.Raison:: Dammit
Joe.Raison:: What was that?
Joe.Raison:: Oh god
Joe.Raison:: My ship
Joe.Raison:: Damn, Avril. Are you hear me?
Joe.Raison:: Capture my pod.
Joe.Raison:: Ahoy...? Dammit *He looked around*
Avril.Parker:: Knock knock.
Avril.Parker:: Everything alright with you?
Joe.Raison:: Yeah.
Avril.Parker:: I will drop you off at Barrier.
Joe.Raison:: Hurrah.
Avril.Parker:: And then you tell me what the hell you just did there.
Joe.Raison:: I tried to shoot the card
Avril.Parker:: Really now?
Joe.Raison:: And what after?
Joe.Raison:: Explode.
Avril.Parker:: I mean... seriously? Joe... excuse but.
Avril.Parker:: YOU FIRED YOUR GUN INSIDE YOUR COCKPIT WHILE IN SPACE?
Avril.Parker:: ARE YOU FREAKING MAD?
Avril.Parker:: Ahem.
Joe.Raison:: But... Erm
Avril.Parker:: *hust* Sorry.
Joe.Raison:: Well. I'm alive?
Joe.Raison:: Means all good.
Joe.Raison:: Yes dammit
Joe.Raison:: Sorry
Joe.Raison:: It's... Sorry... Damned whiskey
Joe.Raison:: I... Just drunk one bottle of whiskey before launch
Avril.Parker:: All good. All good he says. Tsk. After you have been accounted as dead, I saw you now exploding again.
Joe.Raison:: But! I'm alive!
Avril.Parker:: What do you think I feel whilst that? Man. I need a break. Really.
Avril.Parker:: I will be somewhere around the station. I am sure I am not hard to find. Once you stopped trying to kill yourself.
Avril.Parker:: And stop drinking. I swear.
Joe.Raison:: Well. I just need to stop it... To stop drinkin'
Joe.Raison:: Sorry, just... When all thinks you are dead.
Joe.Raison:: And when you are working just a... Barman
Avril.Parker:: That is no excuse.
Avril.Parker:: No.
Avril.Parker:: At least do not fly after you have drunk.
Avril.Parker:: Shooting your gun inside your cockpit.
Joe.Raison:: Huh. I lost my rank? I lost all of my ships.
Avril.Parker:: Quiet now. You will get all that back anyways.
Avril.Parker:: Stop being so negative.
Avril.Parker:: Imagine where I would be now if I would have been that negative.
Avril.Parker:: [You don't think at all about future, babe]
Avril.Parker:: SHUT THE HELL UP SARAH
Joe.Raison:: I at last got 100 SC. Whiskey costs 200...
Avril.Parker:: Good start.
Joe.Raison:: Okay... Okay...
Joe.Raison:: I know... I know...
Avril.Parker:: Hokay. I will try now to somehow distract me from all this mess.
Joe.Raison:: I can... I'can controll... Myself
Avril.Parker:: Which means, I will be logging off the comms for a while. I need to think.
Avril.Parker:: Okay? Okay. Do not do anything stupid in the meantime. Please.
Joe.Raison:: Beer costs... 50 SC *He whisperred*
Avril.Parker:: *takes a deep breath* Got to go. Cheerio!

...Log: Saved…
...Closing…

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Bad day” thought Joe after he broke one of the Legion Satellites and after his Prosecutor. On the Barrier Gate in the bar he bought two bottles of beer and set in the most quiet and lonely place.
“I… Should stop it.” – Joe said to himself, and made one sip. He tried to understand what was going on with him hour ago. Why his transponder stopped working and why the Tony’s hacks didn’t work on Legion Satellite.
