I saw an Outcast Destroyer! A Destroyer! Woah! I like, called the GMG and got assistance with another Bomber, the very very nice Sum Yungai! We saw the ship had GMG pilots, bad bad thing! Shortly after demanding the pilots, it opened fire with a surprise volley which caused some damage to my ship, nasty person.. But! We started shooting it! And then it went boom!

Good day DXI. I apologize for my unexcused absence, but I was dragged into a Summit Meeting of sorts and we lost communications (//My cable was cut >.<//). Anyways, I look forward to see you men back in space, and Sorlyn, I expect you handled things nicely in my absence. I also expect a report on recent events. That is all.

While preparing for an ambush attempt, an Outcast Destroyer came out of the cloud, and well, We just couldn't resist. It ran away naturally and even all the way into Beta, but we managed to take it down just before it could get within the range of Ruiz's docking rigs.

Subject: Finalized Payroll.
Well, with thing's finally settled down, Finances was finally able to finish up on an agreed upon plan, and I've accepted it as satisfactory. All pilot's take note of the following:
-Attachment Opened-
Quote:-Base Pay: 1.5 Mil (Squadder)/3 Mil (Commander)
--Kill: Full Contractors Pay.
Bonuses (Achievement System):
---Kill Streak (3+): Racking up Kills, Pretty Self-explanatory... (Qualifies throughout the session.)
Bonus = 100k per kill, with 50k increments.
Ex: 3 kills = 450k Bonus, 4 kills = 700k bonus, 5 kills = 1 mil, etc etc.
(Max 10 Kill streak @ 3.25 million Bonus)
---Double/Triple Kill: Destroying and Claiming on the same target 2/3 times within a period of 50 hours.
Bonus = 1 Mil for double, 2 mil for triple.
---Cavalry: Coming to the aid of Contractor-Tagged pilots (DHC/GMG at the moment), and resulting in a Victory.
Bonus = 1 Mil.
---Knight in Shining Armour: Coming to the aid of an outnumbered Contractor-Tagged pilot, and while still being outnumbered, results in a victory (Requires extensive proof; I.E. shots throughout the battle (//chattime on would help.)
Bonus = 3 Mil (Perhaps 5 if you make it heroic enough).
-----MVP: Pilot with the most kills at the end of the session.
Bonus = 3 Mil.
All of the preceding will be counted up at one-week intervals, and paid at the end of each session. All 'Achievements' will be put on record, and any additions to the list will be announced. Due to some transfer errors, this message was received a bit late. Every Sunday at Noon is the beginning of a new session, and payroll will be announced on this channel at 1100 hours. Except for any possible irregularity, this is the standard procedure. If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask.

Whoever's in charge of this here shin-dig should know that I'm resigning. I ain't gonna stick around if we end up sittin' around Aomori without pay. I reckon anyone in Serpent lookin' for a job is welcome to join me.

Can't say I blame you, honestly. I'm about to go that way myself, but I'm waiting for word from the investigator I've hired.
To: DXI
I have someone looking into the Director's disappearance. I'll let you know when he gets back to me... but I'm not expecting much. It's part of the job, unfortunately. Wouldn't be surprised if he's... eh, let's not get into that.
A bandaged man lays sitting up on a hospital bed, with a splinted arm and a small bandage on his neck. "Greetings... I'm not quite sure if this message will make it through, or even if there's a DXI left to hear it, but I may as well give it a shot. Anyways, I'm sure you've noticed my somewhat lengthy absence, and I apologize for it. I ran into an... "incident," during a chase and to put things blatantly I let myself get captured. I guess I'm losing my youthful touch..." A short chuckle comes out, but is drowned out by a cough, and the man clears his throat as he goes to resume his words. "Thank bloody God for those nosey 'Hunters though, as thankfully within only a few days time there was a skirmish over the slave ship I found myself aboard, and those Supernova's rang that ship like a windchime. Me and a few others managed to get ourselves out amidst the panic and jumped on a shuttle, but found ourselves out of fuel relatively quickly. We spent the next couple weeks drifting, barely surviving, until a trader found our stranded shuttle and took us aboard..." A soft sigh can be heard. "Yeah... I could definitely be in better shape now. Anyways, here I am at Freeport 10, in one of their med-bay's, and god damn these rooms are small. Expect to see me back within a few days, and once again, I apologize for my absence." A smirk ends off the tape as it fades off.

'Ello gentlemen (and woman), Doctor here at Aomori says I'm all fit for flying and what not, so I'm getting my ships shaken off and reactivated. I'm curious who actually is still around, and even interested in resuming operations. I'm a bit saddened over the loss of Seleucous, and until a replacement can be found, I'll be heading Serpent myself. Report in with a quick word or two at your earliest convenience.
