It was four fighters... I think, four Avengers. My scanner caught they signal soon as I was prepared to jump into Pennsylvania from New York.
In beginning, Jump Gates didn't worked, I tried to dock several times, but there was no response to signals I sent... then... they came... They was quickly identified as LSF pilots... one of them said "You are identified as pilot Linda Buckey, by the name of Liberty Republic, you are under arrest. Miss Buckey, please, we don't want to hurt you.".
I knew, they was sent to... eliminate me... it's all about that transmission... it's all about truth I said... it's all about pilot's life I wanted to be saved...
I tried to dock to Trade Lane, it didn't responded too. The only choice was to run. Run as fast, as I can, into Buffalo...
I tried to activate Cruise Engines, unfortunately they was disrupted by few shots of Disruptors.
"Miss Buckey, don't do that..."- I heard.
I didn't stopped, I moved as fast as I can. I even didn't knew, where Buffalo is exactly, I just flew straight.
"Miss Buckey, that's the last chance for you to stop, and surrender."- Repeated officer.
I tried to make move out from them...
"**INBOUND**"- Heard in cockpit. When I checked scanners, four missiles was coming... I used my last few countermeasures, it helped. I was so relieved... but too soon.
"**INBOUND**"- Heard again... Now it was three rockets and... torpedo...
I managed to take off the rockets with my turrets, but it was too late with the torpedo.
One shot, and it managed to rise my shields to total zero, and hull by the half.
I was dizzy, didn't reacted to all sirens and signals around me... Then I "woke up", I tried to send transmission to these pilots... they didn't responded...
I checked my scanners, no base in sight... I lost all hopes to escape...
I turned my transmitter on, and activated live stream to random receivers... I think, that was SCIOP and my last... Sirius-wide transmission, which soon was blocked by those sons of the witches (LSF)...
I tried to explain everything, to ask for help... but I realized, that all my signals is heavy static. I don't know, maybe it was effect of Badlands, or maybe these pilots used some sort of jammer... the only thing I left to do is... pray...
"Help me Lords of Olympus
Let me walk the path of righteousness
And lift my face unto your goodness
I offer this prayer..."
When I remember the ejection capsule.
"I still can make it..."- I said.
I stand up and ran to it...
Soon, another torpedo came...

Gates ... Nebula ... place in which I had never been ... my subconscious says that this is a dream, but still can't wake up, I hear a woman whispers: "Calm down ... fly ... do not be afraid ..." It's voice of Siren, the Morph, which made me a hallucination, called "projectcommunicate" few weeks before ... everything looks so real... I came closer to the gates, such as those my father was drawn in he's notebook ... whisper again, "Dock ... afraid not..."... after the momen I feel my ship shaking in tunell of jump...Now I look at a strange station ... it seems it's alive ... breathing... whispering something... I'm coming closer...
----
Before 3 weeks... before "Reincarnation"...
"Breathing: Nominal, functions: nominal... looks like she's waking up"- I heard a voice... Those images... it was a dream... another one... almost same as the last ones.
"Rise and shine."- Said another man.
I heard conversation of three mans... I felt I'm in some short of hospital... then I opened my eyes, I saw two mans in doctor suits, and another one, in suit of... Rogue...
"Welcome to Buffalo, Miss Buckey..."- He said...
After some time, when I could walk again, they told, that they found my capsule soon after the explosion of my ship "Athena" (Dromedary).
Some Rogue patrols thought, that was another Rogue, or maybe smuggler of Cardamine, so they came as fast as they could, take my body out from capsule, and left it floating in space, to make LSF believe, that I didn't survived.
Soon, then they see report on News, that I'm dead, they recognized me.
Liberty Rogues made sure, that I won't be found on Buffalo, but they said, that I can't stay for very long time...
...I was confused...angry... I didn't knew, where I'll go now... The only thing I knew, I can't back to Liberty now...
