around 20.30 hrs Zulu Time (GMT)

The scanners on the [AW]BSA-MAUL picked up a signature from the [TC]Endeavour who earlyer this day managed to slip almost undetected into Omicron Alpha.

The presence of the [TC] vessel was suspected following a report from 1st Lieutenant Red-XIII, a pilot patrolling the system, who thought he seen something strange after taking out a lone [TC] fighter in the system.

Upon Maul's communication to the [TC]Endeavour to imediately leave AW space, and receiving no response, a general alert was raised. The Maul undocked and was awaited by the TC vessel in orbit around Malta blasting all it's weapons into the Maul's shields. After a short skirmish, the rest of the AW forces were just in time to see the invading vessel explode in a beautifull show of fireworks. Debris were falling on Malta for half hour time.

The pilot 1st Lieutenant Red-XIII has received a commendation for the job well done and will soon be promoted if such exquisite performance continues.
Red-XIII has also received a five million credit reward.
