Patrol today was long yet mostly uneventful. Therefore I extended my patrol, actively moving throughout New York and Texas, with Colorado thrown in for good measure. A few hours into patrol, Harvesters were reported in System (Colorado), however I chased them throughout Liberty--New York and Texas--without ever spotting them.
Later a smuggler named Tezari opened long range comms to inform me of arrival to New York.. Mentioned in a previous report, he had paid two million credits of a four million credit fine. Honorably, he came back to New York, trading consumer goods and paying off the remaining two million of the fine.
Lastly, a Xeno Guard member was spotted near Manhattan. Engaging him immediately, as I was the only pilot on active duty in the area, I was unfortunately outclassed. His Eagle handily outdid my Avenger in a turning fight, and apparently he was one of very few "Top Aces". My ship was destroyed, however I managed to eject, and thanks to a large bank supported by the family of Ryans, I have refitted a Guardian VHF and am once again ready to report for duty--wiser now as to the dangers of engaging immediately with some of the best pilots that the Xenos can offer.
[LN]-Zachary Ryans, out.
