Forlorn d'Autoine's Records

[Eduard]

More memories:

I was wasting time at the ,,One Hope" bar in Akabat like usually, enjoying a drink.I started to stare into the nothingness without focusing on something specifically, my eyes were, to be more precise, were looking at...nothing.It is then when my memories about the past when I was part of the Royal Navy have came into my mind.
I can clearly remember, the day, when I just promoted the Academy and joined the ranks of the Navy.My father, doing his job as a father a bit too well, didn't wanted me to risk my life flying a ship and battling with the rogues and other enemies of Gallia.He assigned me to a special ops team.Special ops is not the right term though, that team was more exactly a team of technicians and hackers hired by the Gallic Royal Navy.Me, as a fresh rookie, was quickly thought the basics of programming, computing and so on.I learned everything possible there, from crafting a variety of devices like remote cameras to programming a virus.
One day, a recon ship located a pirate base inside a nebula.The base was too defended so that a squadron of fighters could break trough, so then, I was called to help as well.I was to design a virus capable of breaking trough the pirates' firewall and disabling their defensive systems, weapon platforms, station turrets and so on, so that the squadron could easily fly in and take the space station out.
The recon ship provided me with all the intel he could to make my task easier.He provided me images of the space station, stats about their defensive system and other intel.
I had only a couple of hours to program the virus so I quickly began my work.I decided to program a virus which would break trough the space stations communication systems, this means, that the virus should be launched when the space station was receiving or sending transmissions to a nearby patrol vessel or any related situation.
In the hours I was working on the virus, the recon ship provided me with intel about the space station's radio frequency appeared when transmitting messages to any nearby vessel and so I began programming the virus to detect that exact radio frequency so it can infect the space station's software.The first part was done, now it comes the second part, in which I had to discover a way to shut down the space station's defense.The defense system was powered using electricity, quite obviously, so I programmed the virus so that, once infecting the station's software, it should launch an EMP impulse trough the software and so it will shut out the defense system.This effect would be temporary but with good timing, it will be more than enough so that the squadron can take out the space station.
My task was finally over, I programmed the virus and so I embarked a battleship which transported me, and the squadron's crew and equipment to a nearby location, at quite a distance from the space station.
The squadron quickly left the battleship and went deep into the asteroid field, hiding from any nearby pirate.Now, our patience was put to the test, we had to wait for the space station to send a transmission so we can launch the virus.It didn't took long before a pirate patrol came and requested permission to dock on the station, the station then send the confirmation.It was the right moment to send the virus and so I launched it!In only a few seconds, the whole station got into a blackout, all it's lights went off, and obviously it's defense systems went offline.It was only a matter of time before things would get back to normal and so the squadron had to move fast.They immediately head to the station and launched their torpedoes at it's hardpoints destroying it in a matter of seconds.
A clearly successful mission where my computer skills brought me to success.

After a few days, altough loving to be part of that team, I still wanted to embark on a fighter and join the others into space.After this success, my request was heard and so I was transferred to a fighter squadron.







Surprises:

After relieving this memories, I left to space with my precious and trusted Bastet.The events which occured in the next days were all unexpected and out of the ordinary.After I got in space, I decided to go to Zeta, when I arrived there, I noticed Nicolo Masa and another pilot detaining a BHG pilot for interogation.That pilot was piloting an Arrastra.It seems like the transmitter on the BHG ship was broke and ship's hull was badly damaged.We decided to take it near Meskhenet for a safer inspection of the ship in case other BHG decide to appear.It was still a mistery why a Bounty Hunter could pilot an Arrastra.When we arrived near Meskhenet though, we attempted to communicate again with the pilot after we sent him some nanobots.We failed as the nanobots managed to repair only the hull and not the transmitter.Our scanners then picked up, an alarmant decrease in O2 levels and so, one of us has rushed to Meskhenet to bring O2 reserves for the Arrastra's pilot.After sending the O2, we decided providing a closer scan of the ship, though we couldn't a visuals trough the ships windows and so I requested permission from Nicolo Masa to send a remote camera which would attach and provide a closer, more clear and detailed inspection of the ship.Masa granted it, and so I proceeded with sending the camera I crafted on my own.
After a brief moment, the camera established connection and so I could get an inner view of the ship.I saw huge piles of debris which seemed to have covered a body.We then decided to abort the interogation and have that ship sent to Meskhenet where the personnel on there could handle this delicate matter.

The next day, I set out in space again.To my surprise I received information of an AI cruiser wandering in Minor.I then requested permission from the 141 unit which was handling this matter if I could assist as well.It was soon granted and so I plotted course for Omicron Minor.When I arrived there, all the Jump Holes were blocked by order ships to block the escape of the AI cruiser.This turned out to be a Hide and Seek game as we all tried to find where the AI could have hidden.Everyone looked for hours but with no success.I decided to use my computer skills to program a virus which would pinpoint it's location.I asked permission from Maximus Corzelli, and with the support of Nicolo Masa, my permission was granted and so I began programming the virus.Still, I couldn't program it in my Bastet so I head to dock on a nearby Geb where I programmed it.After programming it, I launched it.The virus appeared to have been succesful, but instead of pinpointing the AI's location, it pinpointed one of our order colleague's.I head again in my bastet and with the help of Kado, we head near Toledo to use the radiation emitted by it to amplify the strength of the virus.Still, all our attempts were unsuccesful, and we decided not to use Toledo as a ,,tool" as Corzelli said that it was an insult for the heroes which have given their lives there.
After some time, we decided to abort this...If only we could have had a Resheph dispatched...It's systems could have been of great help in programming a better virus...

The surprises do not stop here though!Only a few days passed when it came to my hears that a BHG was sighted in Omicron Zeta.I plotted course there to assist the already dispatched order personnel among them being Kado, Masa and Tyrael.We spotted a transport with Bounty Hunter IFF yet it was carrying a freelancer ID.Masa allowed me to conduct interogation with the help of Kado and Tyrael as my assistants.I will not reveal the intel I have managed to uncover, though, as they are to be considered Top Secret.
After it, I decided to file a report to Masa, which forwarded it to Enrico Davids.Masa then told me back that everyone was very pleased to read the content of my report and so I was very proud to have served the Order.

After the report, what can I say...I was very tired, and I thought of retreating to my dormitory in Meskhenet where I had a very long and deep sleep....
