Dear Sirs,
I have some very disturbing news related to events that occurred earlier today.
While on patrol with Director Copperfield an unknown entity attempted to control my mind and was unsuccessful. Perhaps this was due to the shield resonance of the equipped classified shield on my ship. The Director made a strategic call to intercept this being and we tracked the source as Pennsylvania. After entering the system we separated in order to locate the suspect and Copperfield was able to obtain a fix of his location - It was in a nomad light fighter. During the chase I joined him and was able to disrupt the suspects engine bringing him to a halt.
That said, soon after strange things started to happen - the Director was muttering strange words, trying to remember someone - it appeared as if he was having flashbacks of some events - some event of a rescue perhaps. It didn't take me much time to realise that it was the signals coming from the nomad ship that were responsible. I tried to tell the Director to change his shielding and even sent direct commands to his on-board computer but to no avail. At this time his ship auto-set co-ordinates for the Kansas System.
I fended off the nomad fighter for a while with most work being done by a Navy officer - Julie.
When I searched for the Director's ship, it was too far and my commands were not being ack by his on-board computer.
I assembled a small rescue team to intercept the director in Kansas. We reached the system first and gave chase to the Director's ship, which still wasn't responding to my commands. His ship or him seemed possessed - they were looking for a power source and flying in a highly irregular pattern. Eventually we caught up with him and I managed to down his shields to rescue his pod, but was unable to get a lock.
He fled into the gaseous nebula nearby and after extensive searching I located him just as he was activating a huge alien structure. It appeared to be of Nomad origin. Once he went through, I ordered the patrol back to the edge of the nebula and requested them to actively patrol the area.
Meanwhile I've moved to our base inside Z21 awaiting debrief and sending you this critical message.
The nomad seems to have infected the Director and has led him to an unknown destination.
I'm awaiting further orders.
End Message...
