Shadows of the past Mission report
Seeing as I have not been making much of an impact here in the first fleet I wanted to do something to make a difference. So I spoke with my mentor Lt. Auren Stalgrennicron and he agreed to join me on this little mission. We both set off from Mu and took the jumphole to Omicron Zata, from there we entered the Alien gate taking us to Omicron Lola, while I had been in this system before while serving in the second fleet it was something completely different to be in a small fighter. After maneuvering our way through the system we made it to the Jumphole in which intel said the signal had came from. After entering we found ourselves above a MASSIVE Nomad structure, I have never felt so small in my life. Both Auren and I both descended towards the Nomad Structure. My systems could not pick up Delta-3's singal while in this system so be both split up and began searching for our missing ship.
I must say my heart was racing as I dodged and weaved my way through so many Nomad Capital ships and supporting fighters. We were both searching for what felt like hours, but looking at my ships time stamp it took about six minuets before I got a lock on Delta-3's signal. The ship's signal brought me to a massive gate that was locked. It would seem that Delta-3 three went down just above the massive gate in C3. I set my scanners to start scanning the ship while Lt. Auren raced to join me. From what I gather from looking at the bomber, Delta-3 went down just before whatever Order force entered the gate. The radiation might have damaged Delta-3's engines or some other system. Yet I can only guess at that moment as nomads where still around me. Yet, for whatever reason the Nomads seemed hesitant to approach the gate the capital ships outright back off leaving my sensor range soon after. After a few minutes, my ship finished scanning the ship and Auren and both kick on our engines and got out of there as quick as we could. Flying sight up were managed to avoid being hit by the Nomads following us. Not long after head made for the system exit which spat us out at Omicron lost.
However the Nomads where not done with us yet, as two wings of fighter forms were waiting just outside the jump hole. I being more worried about getting this data back. My mentor wanted to fight but I was already kicking on my cruise engines by the time he began firing at the Nomad war forms. Soon after I pulled off Lt. Auren followed after me. From their we made our way to Delta then to Zata and finally returning to Mu and docking at Damascus Research Station where the data from my scan of Delta-3 being pulled form my ship's computers.
