Good day, ladies and gentlemen of the High Command.
I've returned to active duty out in space yesterday and was called to West Point Academy, where I gathered with the 5th|LNS-Odyssey, 5th|Darius.Martin, LPI-Officer D'Zelra, and two other Navy Secondary Fleet - ships. 5th|LNS-Odyssey got a message by the LSF, about Code-Red alert in System California. I was ordered to check the situation and report it asap.
When I entered System California, I hit upon a confused pilot with a Gallic Royal Police transponder-signal named Royal.Armed.Navy, identified as Freelancer, piloting a Corsair Heavy Fighter with maltese weaponary. I sent a message to the 5th|LNS-Odyssey, explaining the situation, just after I asked the suspect pilot about his business Liberty Space.
The 5th|LNS-Odyssey, as well as the other Navy Secondary Fleet ships arrived in California, while I kept the suspicious pilot in place, resulting in a survey of said suspicious pilot. His intentions were not entirely clear, as he kept telling improbable stories about the reason being here. Meanwhile, a smuggler named Tora'ach in a Serenity class transporter, arrived in System California by the New York Gate, hauling a load of 2453 Black Market Ammunition. He was ordered to cut his engines multiple times, refusing to obey, denying any cooperation. As soon as the 5th|LNS-Odyssey ordered us to open fire, the smuggler's ship was heavy damaged, and finally destroyed by the last hit of my guns, resulting in a explosion of both, the ship and the prohibited goods. His escape pod ended up in my ship's cargo bay.
Just after this, Hellfire Legion - ships appeared close to planet Mojave. One Hellfire Legion "Arbiter" class Battleship named Poseidon and two Fighter class ships named [HF]-Syrix and [HF]-Buzzard. 5th|Darius.Martin and LPI-Officer D'Zelra, as well as second Navy Battleship arrived to assist us, while we were waiting for the Hellfire ship's actions, negotiating for a peaceful way to part ways. Noticing there was no way to keep peace, we were ordered to prepare for the combat, loading our guns. We were already taking fire by the Hellfire Battleship as we charged in. The Hellfire fighters were easily taken down, while their Battleship managed to take down a Navy Siege Cruiser and the second Navy Battleship. We were focusing fire on it, until another Hellfire Fighter appeared, taking the Navy and Police fighter's attention. 5th|Darius.Martin destroyed the Hellfire Legionaire in a duel.
After that, we were taking care of Royal.Armed.Navy, forcing him to move, he began to insult Officer D'Zelra, as well as Admiral O'Neill. Upon this, Officer D'Zelra opened fire at Royal.Armed.Navy, while I joined her a few moments later, taking order by the 5th|LNS-Odyssey. He proved out to be a skilled pilot, dodging several shots fired at him, still taking damage. Unfortunately he managed to destroy Officer D'Zelra's ship and escaped later, forced out of Liberty Space via the Cortez Gate. Officer D'Zelra's escape pod has been taken to safety in my cargo bay, I set her down on Planet Manhattan.
Unfortunately, in all the heat of the battle, I couldn't manage to take visual evidence, but the visual evidence given by Darius Martin's earlier report.
