It was cold in the Hangar at Fort Bush when I reported for Duty, apparently the environmentals had taken some sort of hit from a idiot trader who thought that testing out his laser cannon while being INSIDE of the hangar deck was a good idea. I gave him one heck of a fine, something he will remember for a good long while. Its a good thing that the LPI hangar is segregated from these fools.
I launched and immediately was contacted by the Navy about a Junker in California, by the name of The Chrysonavis. Had a full load of Cardi on him! I proceed at break neck speed to get there. Upon Arrival, the Navy had him corralled. There were 2 other LPI officers there, Officer Joe Smith, and Sergeant Markey. Well, the Navy turned him over to us, so I demanded that he drop his cargo and pay a fine. He played for time, seeing as he had been escorted by 2 outcasts from the CCS group. The Navy had those 2 bottled up and told them that they could go, that the Navy had no problem with them. Apparently, the CCS is short on brains, because they attacked the Navy and got vaporized for it. I think we should send the CCS guys some <strike>C4 candy canes</strike> condolence cards next year for Christmas.
The Chrysoanvis kept playing for time, saying he couldn't jettison his load, that the doors were inoperative, welded shut, so on and so forth. Then he tried to run for it. The 3 of us gave him what for. The Navy also kicked in for a good measure. He was trying to make it to the California to Texas Jump hole, but never made it. We destroyed him while he was in sight of it.
After this the group returned to NY and we reloaded for the rest of the shift. I had the maintenance guys look over my bird and had lunch.
Launched from Manhattan and did a little smuggling interdiction. The smugglers must be getting smarter, because none of them were around. Markey and I went to Texas for a look around. We were sitting at Planet Houston when a liner undocked from Houston advertising that he had slaves for sale. We informed him that saying that in front of 2 peace officers was not a very good idea. He decided to reply to that by opening fire on us. I fed him a couple of the Sunslayer torps from my Guardian, whilst Makery punished him with his guns. The captain must have been insane, because he tried to planet dive at this point. We figured he was good as dead. Lo and Behold, he showed up at the docking rings again and made a run for the Hudson jump gate. Since he was on his way out of Liberty space, we let him leave. I believe his name was [SN]Raphell....
We returned to the NY system and rearmed again. We flew to Manhattan orbit afterwards. My scanners picked up Jim McKinsey, and he was edging closer to the three of us. We were going to take him on, but he wanted a go at me Mano Au Mano, so I was going to indulge him. A Navy Gunboat appeared on the scene, AirAce, and wanted to take on McKinsey. I told the others to back off and let the 2 of them have at it.
Well, that didn't turn out how the Navy wanted it, so the three of us answered the the Gunboats distress call and jumped in. In he end, the 3 of us ended up having to eject and float home.
End Of Report.
