Today on Patrol in New York I have encountered an unidentifiable vessel. I must say I was a little bit on autopilot and proceeded with standard protocol [] Iskendari: *****Darkling welcome the Light****
[]Inspector.Lemon: I'm sorry what?
[]Inspector.Lemon: I'm going to need some sort of ID
[] Inspector.Lemon: whatever you are
[] Inspector.Lemon: present your papers
[] Inspector.Lemon: cut your engines
[] Inspector.Lemon: and state your business
[] Iskendari: *****Welcome the Light or be Darkend forever*****
[] Iskendari: ****We Bring the Light******
In retrospect I was pretty foolish, but I just woke up, it was my first hour on the shift and I didn't even have time to finish my first Sunbucks, and didn't realize what was happening [] Inspector.Lemon: So you sell lights?
[] Inspector.Lemon: Do you have a licence for that?
[] Iskendari: ****DARKLING WILL BE DARKEND****
[] Inspector.Lemon: You just said you sell lights, why talk about darkening?
At this point the vessel started emitting some type of photon based beams - but you know how The Defiant is, none of them were hitting me so I was none the wiser [] Inspector.Lemon: I thank you for demonstration, but I am not interested in buying your lights, and you don't seem to have a licence for them
[] Inspector.Lemon: I will be forced to arrest you
[] Iskendari: ****Darklings Song Willl be Silenced*****
Now my coffee started to finally kick in, and some of the beams actually began to hit my hull and started doing considerable damage - and then it hit me, could this large vessel actually be an Alien intruder? Smack bang in the middle of New York?
Either way I proceeded to attempt to disarm the vessel
It proved much tougher than I anticipated, and I have sent a system wide communication, asking for help. Thankfully the navy vessel LNS-BOUNTY heard my calls and assisted in the pursuit.
Bounty indeed confirmed that the assailant was A Nomad vessel, and after ferocious battle where we both took considerable damage we managed to dispatch of the intruder. [] Iskendari was put out of action by LNS-Bounty (Gun).
[] Inspector.Lemon: thank you for the assist
[] LNS-Bounty: nomad destroyed
[] Iskendari: *****The Light Will Come for You*******
[] LNS-Bounty: no problem officer
The last thing that remained was to get rid of the possibly infected Nomad materials
I have decided to pursue the newly built trade lane to the South-East of New York where I heard rumors The Navy and LSF might be dealing with Alien Waste, and after some back and forth The Navy 5th fleet vessel I actually did manage to encounter there, LNS-LOYALIST took them off my hands.
Going forward, I advise caution with unidentifiable vessels that emit strange sounds and talk about lights. Don't be dumb like me, have your coffee well ahead of your shift, proceed with extreme caution and if possible, request assistance of The Liberty Navy capital vessels, as the Nomads seem to be too tough for standard issue police inspector ships.
My thanks goes to LNS-BOUNTY for the assist and possibly saving my oblivious ass in the process .
