<div align="right] Konnichiwa. Today we loose our battle against dragons, and I want to tell you how that was.
Prison liner transported prisoner from battleship Matsumoto and was guarded by wing of fighters. <div align="right]But when we leave comm range of battleship and entered Shiden cloud we was ambushed by wing of Blood Dragon fighters.
All what They wanted was, rescue of Yumo Saburo, who was captured in last fight.
Matsuyama ordered to fighters to intercept enemies and fight began <div align="right]Unfortuantly Matsuyama lost all fighter support and almost was forced to surrender,
but as I understand that was a plan of Taisho Hajime.Hiroito who already dispatch wings of fighters to intercept and capture rest of dragons.
But that plan didnt work and they fled, unfortunatly they transmitted signal or something like that to Yuma and he sacrafice himself and took all secrets of Blood Dragons in grave.
>>>Incoming Transmission: Daisa - Takahashi, Mikako
>>>Time: Week 83, 817 A.S
Patrol began peacefully: I met a zoner vessel tagged (]c[)Samothraki who was scouting Tau-31 on behalf of their consortium. I arrived in Leeds and it wasn't long before the discourse with the enemy occurred; I have found these occurrences usually become an excercise in trying to demoralise the enemy, as well as filling the dull moments whilst vaguely exploring the mind of the Bretonian. "BAF|Capt.A.Blair: Gee, I sure do love the night shift. Nothing wrong about the night shift. Sure don't hate the night shift.
[KNF-K]Takahashi: I heard your kind enjoyed the dark captain..
[KNF-K]Takahashi: but i thought it propaganda BAF|Capt.A.Blair: Well, it's nice when I'm trying to sleep I guess.
[KNF-K]Takahashi: Do you all sleep on shift, or is that the priviledge of captains solely? "
Much of the banter was of this nature, later a bounty hunter turned up in an orca - I decided to escort BH-Brutix and make sure their intrests did not cause disruption. We both witnessed LaBrise|Dirigedestroy a trader vessel tagged: Heaey_Cannon. The hunter quickly made after the gallic craft and appeared to be heading to edinburgh, I lost contact, and returned to Leeds.
Then a dissenting voice crept through the comm. SCRA|CPW-Mao.Zedong flown by someone called warner, he had some very offensive things to say about the emperor; I searched the system for him but failed in my attempts. I have decided that I must find this pilot one day to make him answer for his insolence. "SCRA|CPW-Mao.Zedong: Warner: Your emperor is a fraud. Not a God, nothing special, just a man with dreams of power."
His profane statements sent me dizzy with anger, and I'm ashamed to admit I let one "Alkaline" (a B.a.f pilot sent to Stokes by blair) slip back to Leeds, as I struggled to physically control myself. Alkaline then informed us all that he 'kept' Kusari women as some kind of concubines or something. Warner continued his tirade: "SCRA|CPW-Mao.Zedong: Warner: Your Emperor is a fake. A mere man who thinks himself a "Kami"."
"SCRA|CPW-Mao.Zedong: Warner: Your Emperor is nothing but a useless husk that uses others to make his current existence not suck.
SCRA|CPW-Mao.Zedong: Warner: In that aspect I suppose he is no better than the Nomads.
[KNF-K]Takahashi: *gasps* I will find you, and I will make you speak those words backwards.."
More bodies joined the debate; Buckaroo.Banzai (who symapthised with the SCRA| and the breton), HMS-Hadrian (a breton pilot named Evans), HMS-Victory (piloted by Nelson), Josh.Evans, and Harp. The last one announcing that they were taking vehicles to Leeds planet.
Suddenly I witnessed Heaey_Cannon jump in, this time tailed by [KSP]Toru.Kondo who had dilligently followed this would be blockade runner from home space and patiently explained the law. Cannon was forced to dock aboard the Nagasaki, and after some time their transponder signal went dead, Officer Kondo left after it became apparent that Heaey_Cannon would not be confirming the removal of the plutonium from their hold.
There was more debate, then a corsair appeared and the bretonians mocked him continuously. It was in interesting episode, despite being free of violence. >>>Transmission Terminated
I started my patrol in Hiroshima system and headed to Kyushu system.
While taking the Planet Kyushu-Tsushima depot tradelane a couple of nearby contacts came on my radars. I exited the lane to find two Blood dragon members - bomber Heruya_Chiba and very heavy fighter Li_Takahashi in conversation with a trader Johanson. (Guncam shot).
They demanded the trader, which was carrying scientists to Nansei Research Complex, to turn around. Communication log excerpt:
[17.08.2010 22:07:14] Heruya_Chiba: They belong where they were
[17.08.2010 22:07:25] Heruya_Chiba: Not researching weapons for the kusari
(..)
[17.08.2010 22:12:32] Heruya_Chiba: You johanson will return those scientists to their old base, and the knf will stay out of it
I did not agree with the proposal and neither did Johanson. Trade vessel started to head to Nansei, BD opened fire on it, to which I immediately responded by targeting their bomber with all the firepower at my disposal.
My efforts did succeed, however, only seconds after they managed to destroy the trade vessel. At this point a BD Gunboat appeared on scene. Fortunately, an IMG Spatial craft [A_C]Talisman[Esc] came to my aid. (Guncam shot).
As I sent out a request to search and rescue party to come to aid the survivors, I was contacted by [i][KNF-K]Raikiri. I asked for an assistance to destroy the Gunboat.
Soon afterwards, Li_Takahashi fell by the hand of [A_C]Talisman[Esc].
After a short while [KNF-K]Raikiri came to an assistance and we concentrated our fire on Gunboat. IMG craft had taken some damage and departed.
It didn't take long before Gunboat's armor was shredded into open space and it was destroyed. (Guncam shot).
After the fight I headed to Planet Kyushu to conclude the patrol.
'To start off, a call came in that a Bretonian fighter was seen in Kyushu, I was deployed as well as several other Kusari vessels. We didn't know what to expect, how the hell did he manage to get through our defences ? Was he a spy, on a recon mission ? We didn't know. I was one of the vessel which located him, a Destroyer and another fighter pilot found him and reported the location to me.
It seemed this fighter pilot called himself 'Commander Boris McDonald' - He seemed to know come vital information about some top secret information. He fled Bretonia because of the new leadership, the details were very small. However, I know high command will get more details about his history.
The order came out to escort him to a neutral base where Kusari force officers will take him to custody. I organised a team of Officers to meet at Roppongi, however the base operations centre targeted the pilot and opened fire.
While I was transporting him, I couldn't help myself to ask what the info was, it seemed 'McDonald' wanted my supervisors to have the info fast.
Myself and the pilot had to evac the area before I was caught in the crossfire, as well as the pilot. I then organised a highly armed group of ground force soldiers. They were docked on the Hunter station. We travelled to the station and the hunters didn't seem to be that bothered, I order the highly armed group because our reputation with the BHG. A risky move, but one which will gain us some 'vital information'.
Once the pilot had been brought into the hands of the Delta Force-10 team, I escorted the transport to Myoko. After all, we didn't want to stay with the hunters for long.
That's about it for today. Apart from the long trip home.
Today I launched my fighter on a routine patrol in New Tokyo. In few minutes I met up with Chūjō [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya. There had been reports of a couple of Golden Chrysanthemum vessels in the system. Although Ion storms were strong at the moment, causing frequent navigation errors, we assumed thorough search of the system.
It wasn't long before the reports proved to be true. In a rather amusing fashion: Communication log excerpt:
Quote:[23.08.2010 17:35:48] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Yells* Sisteeeers! Where are you? ...
[23.08.2010 17:36:34] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: And you are saying this in open chanels, how stupid.
[23.08.2010 17:36:54] [KNF]Taiki.Ono: high on cardmine again, I guess
After a while of the search, we found the Chrysanthemums in Honshu, near New Tokyo gate.
It was soon clear enough that they were looking for a fight, "a vengeance" as they called it. Communications log excerpt:
Quote:[23.08.2010 17:45:38] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Mumbles something in an accent then puts the helmet back.*
[23.08.2010 17:45:39] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Whispering* What's that, J-...
[23.08.2010 17:45:47] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: The time has come, Sister.
[23.08.2010 17:45:48] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Frowns a little*
[23.08.2010 17:45:52] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Hai...
[23.08.2010 17:45:57] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: The time for vengeance.
[23.08.2010 17:46:00] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: oh atleast I found this womans...
[23.08.2010 17:46:07] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: You may try to preach to those murderers.
[23.08.2010 17:46:13] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: But I will not.
[23.08.2010 17:46:24] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Me neither, sister.
[23.08.2010 17:46:36] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Points* dogs of the Emperor!
[23.08.2010 17:46:47] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: You're responsible for the destruction of the Wind and Blossom.
[23.08.2010 17:46:57] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: not all of us dogs as you say
[23.08.2010 17:46:59] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: It has been decided that blood shall be taken for blood.
[23.08.2010 17:47:08] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: That underlings shall be taken for Sisters.
[23.08.2010 17:47:16] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: In a fight for life.
[23.08.2010 17:47:27] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Nods.*
[23.08.2010 17:47:41] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: Sister. Chi. Commence the attack with all of Matsuda's might!
[23.08.2010 17:47:41] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Nods aswell, kissing her amulet once*
[23.08.2010 17:47:47] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: Wind of blossom attack our forces first, and well he was carrying large ammunt of our pilots
[23.08.2010 17:47:50] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Hai.
[23.08.2010 17:48:16] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: Hm. They aren't even moving?
[23.08.2010 17:48:28] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: No mercy, sister. They showed none either.
[23.08.2010 17:48:36] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: well if you want to fight, you will get what you want
[23.08.2010 17:48:41] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Nods once more* For the Sisterhood...Junko-san.
A fight ensued.
Exactly ten minutes later [GC]-Chi.Shimizu fell by the hand of Chūjō Takaya.
As the battle continued, ion storm became even worse than before. It blanked my systems for a short while, and when they came back online second Chrysanthemum was already fleeing in cruise few k's away. Since pursue was hardly possible due to space conditions, we let her go this time.
Communication log excerpt:
Quote:[23.08.2010 18:05:45] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: Sayonara. Looks like even I can take advantage of your unorthodox methods.
[23.08.2010 18:06:25] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: our methods? oh its our generosity
I docked on nearest friendly station to wait out the storm and write the report.

ACTION REPORT
An unusual incident occured yesteraday at Kyushu, while I was doing a patrol with Shoi Taiki Ono, we got intercepted by two Blood Dragons: ]bd[Negaeri and ]bd[Katsuro.Takehashi. After the usual exchange of insults, the one by the name of Negaeri revealed something unexpected, he told me his former name, Akira Rokurou, it took me a while to remember the name. He is that Daii we sent on a mission to Chugoku, "A matter of honor" after searching in the files.
Apparently he didn't die as we had heard, he joined the blood dragons, and now he's seeking revenge, I advise to all the pilots to be extremly careful with this pilot, he's skilled, and he knows our ships well.
I'll keep the situation up to date when more information is gathered about him.

Confrontaion with Blood dragon forces.
Today i was called to go to the hokkaido system to confront BD forces.
As i made my way to the Taisho and the rest of the naval forces present, my ships systems went haywire and i lost control of the ship, it lasted for about 5 minutes then the backup went on and i continued to my comrades location.
I took my position in the naval line, then suddenly a BD ship came at our flank, we intercepted and made some damage to it, then more BD ships came from behind.
I succeded to draw their attention away from the rest of my comrades, unfortunatly not long enough as i got hit with an mini razor when my shield was down.
Ive managed to escape with my pod, but my ship was utterly destroyed.
The skirmishing continued without me never the less but they were seasoned veterans as i can recall.
// end of report.

Today while i was doing my patrol, i was contacted by Gopnik Nakita.uebuka saying that he had seen a Blood Dragon ship in Kyshuu, so i went there and followed him to the location where he had seen him/her.
There wasnt a sign of any ship in the vicinity.
As we went for the trade lanes i picked up a Blood Dragon ship on my radar.
Gopnik made it clear for me that he was going to help me deal with this Blood Dragon.
As i confronted the Blood Dragon fighter (]bd[LU.BU) and asked him/her to leave or to fight.
His/her response was: And if i dont leave quietly will you fight me honorably or outnumber me?
My answer: Yes i will fight you honorably.
[OOC]info: This Gopnik guy can barely speak english so when i tried to explain that i was going alone in that one, he just said: yes i help, dragon bad...
So ]bd[LU.BU agreed to leave quietly and was ecorted away.
End of Report.

Yesterday while i was out patrolling i got an tips that an corsair destroyer was sighted in New Tokyo system.
I contated command and requested reinforcements.
Reinforcements arrived and we began the search for the hostile destroyer, but there where no trace of it.
As i was patrolling for the destroyer i came across an outcast bomber ship (Haggis) and a junker pilot.
The junker disapeared as he been told.
I recieved orders to shoot down the Outcast introuder, so i opened fire and his shields went down, but he was close to the jump gate to Kuyshu so he docked and i went in pursuit but he got away.
End of report.

Today at my regular patrol, i recived an notice about an GC ship in Kyshuu from KNF Hajime, so i went to check it out, i joined up with another KNF pilot and begun the hunt.
We soon found her in an asteroid field and fined her, but she refused to pay so we opened fire on her ship, she responded and shortly after i was in my escape pod...
The other KNF pilot was still fighting her with full ship strenght.
And i have no further details about this encounter.

Yesterday while i was on my patrol, i got contacted by a trader that said there was an outcast pirating in Honshu. When i got to the location, he had already gone to chugoku, so he got away for now.
I then got an report that 2 outcast's was in Kuyshu pirating near planet kuyshu.
while on my way to kuyshu i joined up withKaigun Shoi : Youji Nakamura. Me and Kaigun Shoi : Youji Nakamura then continued to kuyshu.
when we got there, there was already a fight ongoing, and so i opened fire on the outcast, not long after that the outcast was destroyed.
After the fight i met Seishuku.Raishuu(wild aoi) who claimed to be my partner and that we should continue our patrol.
Then Youji Nakamura reported that outcast have been sighted in Hokaido, so i went to join up with him.
When me and Seishuku.Raishuu arrived at Hokaido the outcast had fleed.
Then we followed another report of 3 outcast gunships in Honshu.
As we was near the JG to Honshu me and Seishuku.Raishuu encountered the outcast group, that was claiming to be hunting a rouge group of outcast that consisted of 3 gunships and 1 destroyer.
I was about to use leathal force when i figured out a plan. So i let them go and search for their rouge operatives, as i tought that they could always fight and weaken them self, and when they were done fighting we would come in and take care of the rest of the outcasts scum.
But so wasnt the case, the hunting party found their group of rouge pilots and forced them out from kusari, they never returned.
a short period after they had left, i picked up an Outcast gunship on my radar, so i gave him the order to cut his engines, he ignored my order and tried to get away from me.
[KNF]IKN edogawa was called in to help deal with the outcast gunship.
I tailed the outcast trough the whole system while sending my current location to edogawa so he could intercept and engage the outcast gunship.
After a while of chasing him he decided to go to a lane, luckily both edogawa and nakamura was there to great him, he refused to stop and Edogawa opened fire on the gunship.
The Outcast gunship was utterly destroyed.
End of Raport.

At my patrol today, as i was going trough Kyushu i spotted two GC ships, as i came within 10k of them, they decided to escape and they went into cruise.
I asked them to cut their engines and pay the fine and leave or that i would have to use lethal force. They did not respond, I tried to intercept but i failed and they got away. sadly my instruments failed so i could not get an proper ID of the GC pilots.
On my way to New Tokyo JG from Kyushu i came in contact with a Bounty Hunter that was heading towards Tokyo.
I asked him to cut his engines and state his buisness in Kusari,
He said that he was on his way to sell some firearms in okinawa.
So i told him that Bounty Hunters werent allowed in Kusari and what options he had to choose from. either to be escorted out from kusari or forced out, he took option one. so i escorted him back from where he came. Name of the bounty hunter was Bret.sullivan if i remember correctly.
When at our patrol in Honshu system, we moved to osaka station, as we were to move out from there we got an emergency broadcast from Akita border station about a strange ship in Hiryo cloud.
Our patrol consisted of [KNF]Hajime.Hiroito, [KNF]Yamato.Takahiro,[KNF]Ryouichi.Kokuri
[KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya and [KNF]Takeshi
Hajime Hiroito ordered that we were to move out to investigate this unidentified ship near Akita.
When we got there, there was an Blood Dragon downloading Classified information from Akita. We identified the Blood Dragon as ]bd[Shuriken.
Hajime Hiroito ordered us to capture ]bd[Shuriken and recover the information he had stolen from Akita.
And the chase was underway, we followed him to an Jumphole leading to Okinawa.
We went trough and continued the pursuit.
When we finally cought up to him, we saw additional ships on our scanners.
As we came closer they were identified as ]bd[Hattori.Hanzo, [GC]Rika.ito, ]bd[Katsuro.Takehashi, ]bd[Ryuu.Noboru, ]bd[Negaeri.
]bd[Shuriken set the disk on self destruct (or that is what we belive happend).
Right after that we were fired upon.
Hajime Hiroito gave the orders to return fire adn focus our fire.
I soon realised that the enemy was also focusing their fire on me, so i decided that the best option was going to be evasive manouvers.
As the battle was raging on i took multiple hits but they never got trough to the hull, after some minutes of intense fighting the first to fall was an ]bd[ pilot.
The enemy was still on my tail and my shield was failing right after my panel warned me about shield failure it went down and i got hit in the wing as i looked out to see the damage i could see it was just a glancing hit.
After some time another enemy ship met their doom and we got the upper hand in the fight.
At this time my shield was gone and my hull took heavy damage as i could see a hole in the hull after an very good hit i released some of the nano bots to make field repairs before implosion would occur.
As one more of the enemy fell before our well trained veterans, the enemy preasure on me was welcome since most of my bots were used or blown away during repair.
When there was only one remaining enemy left the fighting stopped, as he were outnumberd 5:1, Hajime Hiroito gave him an option to flee.
As ]bd[Ryuu.Noboru was the last of the enemy forces he choose to flee and save his life.
Before he left, he said that he had accomplished his goals and that the files were safe, altough there werent any evidence that they were still intact.
We rallyed up and went back to Honshu were i docked with planet Honshu for repairs on my ship.
