My dad, Mr. Jonathan Elation, the man who taught me to be strong in the weakest times. However on this late night even the strongest fall. Jonathan Elation was one of the best light arms dealers out there. Doing everything he could to keep me and my sister happy. I, Travis "Tenabras" Elation, was the strong one out of me and my sister Trinity. When we got the news that our dad was finally caught smuggling artifacts into Manhattan. We knew the worse was soon to come. Knowing my father he never gave up even when there was danger. That's exactly what he did. With a fine and a warning I was told my dead was heading back out to Order space. That space that has claimed so many lives before. He was heading to Planet Crete with his load of light arms, as always. When he arrived to Gamma he met up with a man he was talking to on private comm, Cpt. Hammer. They both got artifacts from Crete and went on there way. Going through Omicron Kappa, Delta, Minor, then Alaska. They made it to New York without a problem.
Somehow when they arrived the same man who fined my father the first time appeared on the radar. What are the odds of him suddenly appearing right when they entered New York. Nonetheless my father wanted to drop his load off at Manhattan. Cpt. Hammer however played it safe and went to Rochester Base. When my father arrived within radar range of Manhattan he saw [SA] Leo Goodmen or Goodman I cant remember. Any how he tried the swing about. Going around the planet and comming out the other side. Leo was ready and forced my dad to pull out into the field behind Manhhatan. He tried again, this time my father made it onto Manhattan. He instantly sold his load and undocked. To no surprise Leo was waiting.
Leo said thats strike two Elation. My father just ignored it. Leo then tried to fine him 4 million credits. Father however was determined to save the money for Trinity's new ship. Cpt. Hammer started to show on radar, and my father showing no will to pay the fine started taking hits from Leo's fighter. The week shield couldn't hold. He ran and moored to New York with no time to lose. After a few minutes my dad came back out to take on Leo once again. Launching the first volley and mooring again. Just so he can say he got a hit. Leo, now mad at the old man continuously mooring, started to get irritated. One last time my father came out. This time though he didn't fire or moor. He freaking ran!
Engaging cruise engines and using Cpt. Hammers ship as a shield he rushed to the trade lane leading to the shipyards. Though his Behemoth(named Elation) was no match for Leo's agile fighter. Once at the shipyard the Elation started her cruise engine again. Leo launched a large volley of cruise disrupters. All somehow managed to dodge the counter-measures the Elation dropped. After a long chase and continuous hits from Leo's fighter. The Elation couldn't take no more. She exploded in a spectacular display of fire. My dads escape pod made it back to Manhattan where Trinity was waiting.
After 3 hours in the ICU Jonathan Elation was pronounced dead. Cause of death, severe loss of blood from a hit in the head. Trinity, crying from the bad news, called me.
I was furious. I knew I couldn't do anything while my ship was in Evora Shipyard for repairs. I told Trinity that I couldn't do anything to help her at that time. She hung up on me. This is where she finds her strength.
Leo Goodmen has scored the first and last kill in the Elation family tree.
Jonathan Elation will not be seeing his dream come true. His daughter becoming a true pilot.

A call comes in from a Manhattan video comm. Answering it I find out my sister has gone missing. Her friend says she has gone into a state of rage and nothing can be done to stop her. The person on the comm then tells me. My dads back up ship is missing the one that had 3000 crates of Light Arms weapons.
Trinity started smuggling just like her father did. Getting enough rounds in to get the ship she wanted, a Liberty Cruiser. When she finally got the Liberty Cruiser she had friends hook her up with state of the art equipment. Making sure she was ready to kill the man who killed her father.
Days went by as Trinity went about pretending to be a Navy Officer in command of a Liberty Cruiser. She had her crew do multiple navy shorties. At one point a Order pilot in a Zoner Juggernaught came into Liberty. Trinity's ship was the only capital ship on call at the time that was able to stand a few hits from it. When the battle started she was forced to retreat sustaining heavy damage to the hull, but not after she did the same to the zoner juggernaught. When she finished getting her ship repaired she found out the ship had fled. Knowing it too couldn't take another blow. Realizing the Order fled Trinity went back to Manhattan where after sitting at a spot she likes to park her ship. She saw Leo, the very man who killed her father.
Leo was lucky this time Trinity didn't want to risk an attack with so many people around. A couple minutes later however his luck changed. Leo got a call of an artifact smuggler, Capt. Hammer, Trinity's father's friend. She used it a perfect attempt to get revenge. Heading to Rochester where Leo and Hammer were she found Leo confronting Hammer. Pulling up to the scene Trinity started to defend Hammer.
"Leo under the circumstances I order you to stand down." Trinity said.
"You have no authority over me. Your not even a navy pilot." Leo retorted.
"That's not what my ID says."
Then Leo told Hammer to pay the fine or consequences will be occur. Starting to count down. Someone opened fire on Hammer. Trinity instantly fired her cruiser rounds and thats when the fight got interesting. Hammer started to leave seeing as how a trade vessel cant handle combat to much. With Leo, his backup, and Trinity trailing behind. Trinity never ceasing fire damaged Leo so much he pulled off. Then Trinity focused on the ship still shooting Hammer. That ship too pulled off pursuit. Trinity was then wanted for Treason against Liberty. She had to flee. So she fled with Hammer back to his allies, The Corsairs and the Order. Before she left Liberty though she said the final words.
"Though I didn't avenge my fathers death. The damage I caused is good enough."
Trinity Elation successfully fled from the Liberty Systems. However owning a Liberty Cruiser in Omicron Space is not something that many people find friendly. Making it into Order space Hammer had to land on Toledo for repairs. Trinity was left alone. She had to get as far from New York as possible. Making it all the way into Omicron Gamma Trinity had to make allies fast. Using a system wide communication devise Trinity started to work on a new alliance.
"This is Trinity Elation of the (mumbles). I require assistants."
"Trinity what do you need." An unknown voice replied.
"I am wanted for treason in the Liberty systems, and require a place to hide."
"So you want to use our planet as a place to lay low?" The voice replied.
"Yes, permission to dock on Planet Crete."
"Granted."
As Trinity slowly headed toward Planet Crete the voice spotted her ship. The Corsair Gunboat pilot said that Trinity had to prove herself before she could land. Just then luck was on Trinity's side. A Corsair rookie was in need of help. Five destroyers ambushed a lone Corsair fighter. Trinity rushed in and helped the pilot. Annihilating every one of the Destroys, not one was spared. Still not trusting Trinity the corsairs gave her an escort in order to land on Crete. She landed and for the next several days Trinity was under the strict eye of the Corsair Space Pirates and there allies.
