Day 2 – 22nd of March 822 A.S.

Well, after the first day was over and everything was working just fine I got up at 7 a.m. to get ready to earn some more money today. As I was done I took my sword with me and went to my space craft to take off and wait for Loki to start the second day.

Loki arrived a few minutes later and he contacted me to tell me what he had planned for today. He said that Omega-7 will be our task until 1 p.m. today and were going there without a stop.

He went first and we used the Jumpgate to reach our destination. From the Omega Gate we went southern to look for IMG pilots in this system. On our patrol we met some Krüger miners and we infomred them that we are in this system, so they know whom to contact in case of an attack. They really liked to hear that, but they were also asking why an officer of the MND is working with a pirate. Loki explained that I was hired to support him and he also mentioned that it would be easier to hire a pirate than to get one of his MND guys for this job.
The miner understood what his point was and as everything was said we went on flying towards a well known mining spot nearby.

As we arrived we found a few more Krüger pilots and I asked them if they have seen IMG pilots in this sector. Two of them haven’t seen someone today, but the others had something to report.
They said that two IMG transports which were heavily armed had been robbing them earlier today and they also gave us their names and shipdata. Quickly we changed our course to fly nothern to another mining spot where they were seen last. Loki was already angry about this and made clear that someone is going to die today no matter how. I laughed as I considered that a joke at that given moment…

About an hour later we were coming closer to the coordinates we were given and Loki already saw to ships on his battleship scanners – IMG transports. He told me to cloak my ship so they don’t detect me too early and so I did. We got closer and closer and they were staying there as they didn’t knew that trouble is coming up to them. We were very close to them about 500 meters as Loki opened a channel and asked if they were threatening Krüger miners today.
One of them began to laugh and the other just said ‘Yes aaaaand??’ … of course that wasn’t what Loki wanted to hear and he powered up his turrets to show them that he’s not here to make some jokes. They said that he should turn around an fly back home to daddy. Loki was already shouting towards them and he told me to decloak. I followed his command and also powered my guns to make clear I’m not playing either.
One of them was laughing his ass of as he saw a pirate working with a MND cruiser captain, but he stopped after I demanded 40 million credits for their lifes. They were asking if im crazy as they won’t pay anything to me. Loki made the same demand again and fired onto them to make a statement they might understand. They both decided to engage us and they tried to get Loki down, but they forgot about me and after I almost killed one of them as my Supernova found it’s mark they took the energy of their guns and contacted Loki.

They suddenly said that they are willing to pay now as they don’t want to die here in space right now. Now we were laughing and after I received the credits we told them to leave the Omegas without making anymore problems. They agreed and left without any more words. This being done we went back to the Tradelane and we went to Omega-3 now to check for IMG activity there, but it was very quite there and we only met some BMM and Republican Shipping pilots. We told them to contact us if case of an attack or if anything else happens as we would help them immediately. They thanked us, but they also said that they hope they don’t need us as that would be way better and I had to agree to that.

We flew around in Omega-3 and Omega-7 for a few more hours, but nothing happened at all. As it got quite boring we decided to go to Rugen Station in Omega-3 to have a few drinks to celebrate todays achievements. On our way there Loki told me that he is very pleased by our work and wished to be that successful for the rest of the week. We arrived there at 9 p.m. and directly went to the bar and I took my sword with me carrying it on my back and Loki was having his katana with him as always.
We sat down at a table and we ordered some beer and rum. The barkeeper came over with our order and asked us to put down our weapons. I already wanted to do that as Loki took out a paper and handed it to the barkeeper who left shaking his head. As I asked my new found friend what that was he replied that this was a offical document that allows him and his friends – which was me – to carry this typ of weapon everywhere. I liked that a lot and drank the first glas of rum. It was very interesting to talk to him and hear what’s going on in Rheinland all the time.

I don’t know how much time went by, but as we wanted to leave we were stopped by 4 guys who identified themselves as IMG agents. They said that they were here to get back the credits we demanded from the two IMG guys earlier today. Of course we refused and Loki already had his hand on his sword ready to draw it. I was smiling and asked them to leave before someone gets hurt or killed. Their leader asked us if we can’t count as this would be a 4 on 2 fight, but I had to tell him that he’s wrong and I wanted to know if he ever fought a sword bare handed. I didn’t knew what to say and stepped forward to punch me.
As he did so I lost his right hand to Loki’s sword followed by a huge slice from me cutting his upper body in half from his left shoulder down to his right liver. The others tried to grab us, but they failed and we killed them too. One of them was decapitated by Loki another got killed by me and the last one standing got executed by Loki who sliced through his stomache causing a great blood loss.

This unequal figth showed me how useful my new weapons was as almost every bar forbids rifles and handguns, but not old-fashioned swords and I knew what I will keep carrying this weapon with me. Loki gratulated me as he like how I used his present and added that I just earned 2 million credits.
I asked him if he could give me some tips and training after our mission as I’d like to get better. He agreed and he said that we should better get out of here and go to Freeport 1 as this would be safer for us as sleeping here could get quite dangerous after this incident.

We took of minutes later and went to Freeport where he took a room for the night and I went to bed at my flat until 8 a.m. tomorrow where the next patrol would start. Before I fell asleep I fought about todays work and fight and I was surprised by the efficency of swords at close range. I also liked the credits I earned today…

Greetings from your very special rum-drinking-‘friend’
