It's time for you to know the truth about a group of people that calim to be totaly neutral regarding the conflicts that are burning in this system. Yes, you guessed right. I'm talking about the zoners. The peaceful and neutral zoners. But let me ask you a question. If they are so neutral, why are they building warships? Why do their stations have powerfull weapons mounted on them?
Stops a few seconds thinking of something
Well, they will say that they build them to protect themselves from aliens ans God knows what other creatures that I'm sure are looking to eat them.
Laughs then he becomes serious
Well, I never saw an alien to attack a Zoner in Tau-29. So why are the 2 battlecruisers and 1 gunboat stationed there? And why Kusarians agree with this? makes you wonder, doesn't it? Another question... I heard that Zoners supply the Maltese Nation. But I also heard that they supply the Corsairs. This is something that must be investigated. The Outcasts can supply themselves pretty well so why they don't cut off the Zoner transports that go to Crete?
Here's another one. Cardamine is considered to be contraband in most of the houses. Well, I saw Zoners carrying cardamine. Why the Houses don't take any actions against this?
I tell you why. Because they are blackmailed by the Zoners. Now you know why I can't show you m face. I'm sure they are hireing assassins while they see this message.
But let me tell you something. I will investigate and I will show the sirians that Zoners are not that peaceful and neutral. Then I hope that the population of sirius will see them as an enemy, not as an neutral group.
He stops again and thinks if there is anything to add
You will know me as Black Sandero. I will be their shadow, collecting evidence of them doing what they shouldn't. I'm sure I will have some evidence of this. You know why? because they are humans and there is no such thing as neutrality in the humand psychology. Yes, I've studied that but don't try to use that to find out who I am. I'm a shadow.
Ai looked it over briefly. And then deleted it. "Damn spammers" She thought for a moment. She quickly salvaged it and wrote a response:
"You're an idiot." She was about to send it, then figured to add more, "Zoners aren't doing anything shady. They do what they need to stay independant. They're not going to sweep in and murder everything. Goodbye."
Oddly, she could not send it. "Huh. I guess liars cover their tracks."
Hail. Looks like you have some misunderstandings about Zoners, and how things are around Sirius in general. You see, the houses are busy enough to actually be bothered to jeopardize relations with Zoners by making accusations against them. Well, most of them, that is.
As for the Zoners themselves... I don't think your and their idea of neutrality are the same. The way I see it, Zoners are the shoulder that many others often lean on. The thing is, they actually make a hefty profit out of it. The last part you mentioned, about warships kind of explains itself - it's better to be safe than sorry.
Oh, and in case you're wondering why I'm telling you all this... I strongly recommend that you reconsider spying on the Zoners. You don't want to get on their bad side...
So, ye see somethin' ye don't understand, and assume there's somethin' sinister goin' on? Then, ye label that as "Truth" and spread it around fer the delight of one an' all? Yer amusin' me lad!
Ye say that true neutrality is impossible. So, ye think everything fits into an either/or category? Aye, it's true that the universe contains a 'yes' and a 'no', but what they often won't tell ye is that the universe contains a 'maybe' as well.
That's us, lad. We're the ones who didn't like the choices that others tried to force on us, and so made reality suit how we wanted it to be. Now, I'm not carin' much for violence, and won't carry a weapon meself, but I understand why others do. Why we operate capital-class vessels is simple. When ye live in a hostile universe that only knows the 'yes' and 'no', sometimes ye need to communicate with them on that level. Ye wouldn't go down to Rheinland and try communicatin' with the locals in Kusarianese, would ye?
Of course, we mustn't forget that it takes all kinds to make a universe, and in doin' what yer doin', yer servin' the goddess' will just as much as I am. So, feel free to carry on!

As Michael Foster said,
Quote:It's nonsensical idiots like these that are the reasons we have weaponry.
So, you want us to pick sides? Oh how delightful! Then we can be just like the houses blowing the hell out of one another and creating refugees and orphans, many of whom we give safe refuge to.
And I read about your son. I am truly sorry about that but what would you rather, us firing on the Liberty Navy and then having an even bigger problem? We left the houses for those reasons and more, to leave the fighting behind and we have found a way to live peacefully.
Neutrality doesn't kill anyone, choosing a side does. You are no better than the Gallic Royals who blame all Sirians for something that happened long ago by a certain few. You blame all Zoners for what happened for your son. In comparison, Mrs. Holliday's brother was killed by the BAF during the Tau campaign. Yes, she is from Kusari. Does she hate all Bretonians? No, she doesn't. What you are doing, Sir, is creating prejudice.
You aren't very bright either. Publicly declaring your intent to hunt Zoners. We do have people that will either help us or will NOT help you either through respect or friendship. You really aren't helping yourself.
We choose diplomacy over fighting. You obviously have a problem with that. But, as you found out, we can and will fight if all other options are exhausted.
So, you can go ahead and catch me alone in my transport and shoot it out from under me. I will eventually get a new one and continue on. I personally won't give two hypodermic needles what you do. Blanket hatred of Zoners has failed in the past and will fail again. Think about it, Son.

[font=Verdana] *The screen flickers a few times then springs to life... showing Peter sideways*
Oh bloody [color=#FF6666][CENSORED]...
*A wrench seems to grab the 'screen' and turns in around*
There much better...
So mister... Sandero... is this the continuation of the [CENSORED] trend to bombard every Zoner in Sirius with nonsense? Oh wait... yer spamming each Sirian and their mothers...
I 'eard of your [CENSORED] attempts to punish Zoners for not taking sides and preferring diplomacy over violence...
*Scratches his chin while chuckling... altho smearing some oily substance onto it by doing so*
First ye been sputtering great tunes all over the Pennsy... then you [CENSORED] tried to blow up two of my fathers company's transports - with him sitting in one -... only to end up blowing up yerself... heh
Aaaaanyway... I won't waste any more time about this [CENSORED] nonsense and present you with a picture drawn by a child in Barrier gate station's playschool.
Kind Regards
Peter
*pushes a button...
which causes the image go pink...*
Oh [CENSORED][CENSORED] of a [CENSORED][CENSORED][CENSORED]!!!
Just a second. I'm reading those messages that some of the Zonies sent me.
Continues his sorting work
Let's see, message one... crap

Second, Ilya... well, I'm already on their "bad" side
Sends reply
Third, crap... oh wait. Jones, "Maybe" itself asks lots of questions. And "maybe" was not an answer when a youn pilot was begging for your help
Sends reply
Fourth, crap

Fifth... mega crap

Cr... well... Doc Holliday. Senior, first of all, I don't want you to pick a side. I want you to dissapear. You picked all the sides if I can say that... You are supplying Corsairs, Outcasts (tho, I don't believe this), you have bases Sirius wide and you claim more systems than anyother house. Now... if you have so much power and you state that you are a peacefull group, why don't you become Peace keepers and prevent disasters like the one where my son was involved?
Raises fist
You are blackmailing and selling your war equipment to the higher bidder. Let's face it, why would you have destroyers? "Guys like me" shouldn't be a problem for a couple of fighters. But you have D E S T R O Y E R S and even bigger ships.
Calms down
Now, about that "declaration"... where is it? I didn't declared that I will hunt you. I declared that I will stay in the shadows and collect evidence of Zoners that are picking sides. Then, I will publish those evidences and then Sirians will know your true face, not the sweet, peacefull one that you showed them all this time.
And the last thing... it's not hatred. It's called "Civic duty".
