Log:#6 ID: Elvis Cole, Merchant Ship: Gateway|-GSV-Blinkie
Today I was running a trade route based on supplying Southampton with valuable Optronics for their new Carrier-- currently merely a prototype but nearing completion. I had just recently finished a supply run of Quantum Multiplexors for the same purpose.
I began by running Crew from Southampton Shipyard to Waterloo Station.
There I picked up Trade Lane Parts which I ran to Solarius Station, Omega 11.
On the way there I nearly smacked into two pirates uncloaking at the gate between O-3 and O-7. Their names were Party Dan and Hyper Joe and boy were they an odd couple. One was a Gallic transport and the other a Junker Salvager. They were singing, "There were no magic spells, you can keep the flowers and bells/ They just don't seem right/ Can it actually be, me and you and you and me?/
Though we're like day and night..." and they demanded 3 million.
I paid it, but mostly out of pity.
They also sent "my corporation" a stern message. I was taking notes-- it read:
My hat is old,
My teeth are gold,
I have a bird I like to hold,
And it says sit on THIS Gateway!
