*** MESSAGE BEGINS ***
I was off duty, passing by our long range sensor station office in New Berlin when out of curiosity I decided to go check the ship signatures in our territory. I was surprised to find Matrose Schmitz's ship registered in Stuttgart alongside two Mercenary ships signatures in the same system. Immediately I had one loan Wrath prepared for me as my own was under maintenance and launched.
As I reached space I contacted Matrose Schmitz and he calmed me saying he had no problems and was finishing the outfitting of his ship. The two Mercenaries then entered New Berlin. I ordered them out, and even though they didn't outright deny it, their reply sounded defiant of my orders. I prepared for worse as I saw both ships exiting the tradelane from Brandenburg. Perfect.Circle[Merc] and Defiance[Merc], a Bounty Hunter Bomber and an Bounty Hunter Orca Gunship, both IDed Mercenaries. They said they would leave Rheinland after collecting their bounty on me.
I put up a fight against the bomber, but my shields were barely holding against the fire from the gunship. I'm ashamed to report the destruction of my ship before I could at least finish the bomber.
