You'd think we were trying to steal Liberty government secrets. I really don't understand...

... why they make it so god damn difficult just to talk to these people. I know they're Hackers and all but come on! Last time I went through this much trouble to talk to someone she at least gave.. what? It's recording? Bloody hell, thanks for the heads up Simmons.
Right, then. I'm Johnny Vega of the Cartel. But I'm sure you already knew that. And I'm sure you know who the Cartel is, and what we do. But I didn't go through the trouble of contacting you just for a friendly chat. I need something from you, a Bayonet heavy fighter to be precise. Why? Good question.
The Cartel is currently stationed in Tau 23 helping clear the bottleneck system of the Colonials, ensuring to keep our cardamine and other cardamine shipments flowing. Needless to say, it isn't as easy as I make it sound. Those boys can fight. Recently, my Sabre took some damage and will be in drydock for a while. Something about a reactor coolant and radiation and whatnot. Let's just say it will be out of commission for a while. I don't need weapons, I'll just strip my Sabre for that. Just need the hull.
If you're concerned about the technology falling into the wrong hands, I can assure you it will be used for reconnaissance and support. I won't be taking her out alone, especially since some of those Colonials don't exactly fight fair.
Of course I don't expect you to just hand it over with a smile and a hearty hello. You scratch my back I'll scratch yours. Credits, cardamine, arms, whatever. You name it, I'll deliver. You know how to contact me when you've reached a decision.
