If you're reading this, me and my crew already choked on carbon dioxide. There was never any hope for us.
Anyways, this is a emergency message from captain Fernando Gomez los Santos. Tell my family in the colony of Thira that I love them all, and will be watching them from the other side.
These god damn terrorists! they chased us from Kyushu to Shikoku! We managed to send the remaining escorts there to buy us some time, but they died in battle, valiantly. In a desperate move we tried to jump into New Tokyo, unfortunately being caught by a Kusari Navy patrol fighter. In what seems like to be an ambush, he fired cruise disruptors on our vessels without any hesitation, demanding us to halt. He just wasted our time, so the Golden Chrysanthemums could catch us. I tried to explain to him quickly that we were escaping an attack. they accused us of smuggling platinum!
He said to wait or he would shoot us. Then, our executors arrived. A whole fleet composed of Blood Dragons and Golden Chrysanthemums, and guess who more... Kusari Naval Forces! They sold us. Stalled us to our deaths. The Golden Chrysanthemums started to shoot all of us and then the Kusari Naval Forces joined them in their execution. A valiant member of the Hogosha managed to try to help us, but faced a quick death by more than six targets unleashing plasma charges on him.
Then, nothing more could have been done, first captain "Rodrigo Segura", aboard a Raba frigate, died soon after to the action of a Blood Dragon cruiser's heavy cannons, which ignited his fuel tank. Then, our liner had a thruster failure after too taking too much damage, and we were left powerless. Some seconds after, we were hit by heavy weaponry that mangled our ship apart. just 3 crew members made it to a safe airtight room. We had no time to reach for the escape pods. We never knew this room would be our final resting place and our steel coffin.
