[font=Trebuchet Ms]Once again perfect on schedule, I started my patrol at 20.00SMT. My patrol partner Mlle Montaque wasn't there yet. Sources indicated that there were 2 sirian traders in Dauphine, so I immediatly set a course to intercept them. Mlle Montague finally showed up, 4 minutes late. By the time we got to Dauphine, the traders were out of our reach, and got away.
On our way back to Burgundy, we spotted a Junker vessel "zortan" hauling military vehicles. His plan was to go to Planet Quillan, thus supporing the Council. Ofcourse, we couldn't get that happen. We talked him out of it, and he decided to bring the military equipment to the RNS Carcassonne. Seems like we cut off a regular supply there! We escorted him to the Carcassonne to make sure that he kept his promise.
After that, we headed back to Dauphine, making sure everything was peaceful and quiet as it should be. The peacefulness was brutally disturbed by a loud whistle over comms. We couldn't pinpoint the source, but the transmission signature revealed it was a Maquis pilot! He tried to scare is with a fake head, pretending it was one of our Capitaines. I checked the logs, but since there were no missing Capitaines reported, I quickly concluded it was definitely fake. So pilots beware. If you ever encounter monsieur Leon LaBreau, don't let him fool you! The head looked like this:

GRN|Michelle.Picard: Montague, can you pinpoint the source? GRN|Lucile.Montague: Not at this time. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Oh, look at here..some Royalists..wish this beheaded pilot of yours could confirm this to me. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: *Moves the decapitated head's mouth as if it could talk* GRN|Michelle.Picard: Thats just... disgusting. Almost real Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Disgusting oui, but I made the piggy squel. GRN|Michelle.Picard: You almost got me there LaBreau, but you can see by the hair that its fake Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: The body and blood tells me otherwise. GRN|Michelle.Picard: Montague, do you know that guy? GRN|Lucile.Montague: Whom do you speak of? GRN|Michelle.Picard: Well, he claims that head is real. I don't know him. Do you? GRN|Lucile.Montague: Oh, I thought he was already back in his hole. No, I don't know. GRN|Michelle.Picard: Bon, so its fake. What brings you here then. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Hmm, fake...non...the blood here tells me otherwise. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: This Madame's id tells me she was a Capitane of the Navy. GRN|Michelle.Picard: You told us that already. Stop lying, we know its fake GRN|Michelle.Picard: I would know a Captitane gone missing Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Then find me Monsiuer and clarify the blood on my ships interiors, maybe I'll add you to la collecion. GRN|Michelle.Picard: Well, unless you have that head for several months... GRN|Michelle.Picard: How about I make that "collection" go away GRN|Michelle.Picard: Seems quite easy, I can't imagine that you can properly fly a ship filled with fake heads Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Hm, pitiful royalists you all are.. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: To protect Gallia you say? Non, you failed at that many times, if we can so easily, stroll in and cause some.. "fireworks". GRN|Michelle.Picard: Well, if it wasn't for us, Gallia would be crawling with dirty Sirians these days Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: This Sirians wanted to make peace, and your King blindly turned them away, with tensions again your Navy.. Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: They'll be a welcome addition to the forces to tear your kings limbs, one...by one. GRN|Michelle.Picard: Peace? They want to take away our resources, and get away with it GRN|Michelle.Picard: Gallia is better of without them GRN|Michelle.Picard: But a simple minded man like you wouldn't understand I guess Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Gallia would be free of unjustice and poverty created by that vile king! Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: If it takes me to a death of explosions, I'll will see that I pain the kings throne with his blood! GRN|Michelle.Picard: Everyone should keep dreaming. But I'm afraid that your dreams will never come true GRN|Michelle.Picard: Nothing will stop the King Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: Your king must be high on some bad tabbacco if he dreams of conquering Sirius. GRN|Michelle.Picard: If that is what the King desires, that is what will happen Maquis|Leon.LaBreau: You fail to realize the king will be the downfall of Gallia! GRN|Michelle.Picard: I'd say you fail to realize the King will make Gallia a great nation! GRN|Michelle.Picard: Lets find this idiot, and put an end to his lies
We exchanged some thoughts of the well-being of Gallia, but the fools brain were too incompetent to understand that the King is nothing but good to Gallia. Our little discussion was interupted by yet another voice over the comms. This one had an unknown signature, so it had to be a Sirian! After some analysis, it appeared that they were Sirian Mercenaries. I have no idea what they were doing in Gallia, and I didn't really care. They refused to leave on their own, so we set up a searching grid to track down the sirians. Lieutenant Aubert Giroux joined us in the meanwhile.
We assumed he was hiding somewhere in an asteroid field or something, but after a thourough search, we couldn't find him. The fool then revealed his position, proving his stupidity twice. He didn't only reveal his position, he also was near one of our lanes! After that foolish mistake, we found them pretty quick. There were two Sirians, and we found monsieur LaBreau there too, together with another Maquis Poisson.de.Garcon. As if that wasn't enough, a member of the LaBrise family, Aigre An'e, was also present, which made me wonder what his intentions were. On the other hand, we got some backup from the Gallic Royal Police. Sous Brigadier Marlon Signet joined our side. And after a short while, even the Grand Marechal herself joined us.
In short, these were the people involved during the entire incident:
<div align="right]
Unlawful/Sirian
Lawful
GRN|Lynx - Grand Marechal Lilith LaCroix
<div align="right]
MM~Thiago.Raven
GRN|Blaise.Mersenne - Lord Marechal
<div align="right]
GRP|SBg-Marlon.Signet - Sous Brigadier
<div align="right]
SirLootsAlot
After repeated refusal to leave, the Grand Marechal ordered us to eliminate the intruders.
The fight, leaded by the Grand Marechal, went very good. SirLootsAlot wen't down very fast. He had some sort of giant slow fighter-like ship. Lieutenant Montague fired the final shot at 21.11. The intentions of the LaBrise became clear quite soon, because he openly expressed his support for the Maquis, although he didn't engage himself. There will be a more detailed report regarding this. It appeared that the enemy was targeting me, because no matter what I did, they kept on hitting me. I managed to stay alive though, and the next kill was once again registered to Lieutenant Montague, who fired the shot at 21.30 and killed MM~Thiago.Raven.
Then, out of nowhere, a civilian apeared. He had Brigand equipment, but his radio transponder didn't show any sign of his affiliation. Without a word, he joined the side of the Maquis, and started shooting us. It was a foolish move, because his ship was the next one to be schredded. At 21.36, the Grand Marechal shot the idiot. 10 minutes later, Poisson.de.Garcon followed him to, and was killed by once again Lieutenant Montague, registering her third kill of the day. During all this time, my ship was constantly under fire, and I was taking a lot of damage. I was quite sure the others would manage to handle the rest, so I chose to preserve my ship, and pulled out at 22.00. I was replaced by Lord Marechal Blaise Mersenne.
My assumptions were correct, and the others managed to kill the remaining sirian. The Maquis made a wise decision, and fled. Once again, another victory!
