This time around I met up with the man, the myth, the legend himself; Mr. Gunsmith. He got the storage priorities of Elysium sorted out with the dock-master, then with a wink and a sly grin he looked at me and suggested we pair up our Liberty C-5 "Bison" Transports and make a couple of runs on Denver, to which I happily agreed. After all, it's not every day one gets to fly with the President and top-notch pilot Dan Gunsmith. I'd be crazy to refuse! With an extra skip in my step I oversaw the loading of ore into my Bison, The Lucky Lady, and met Mr. Gunsmith outside the station. After a quick systems check I formed on his wing and we were off like a herd of... Bison. Haha! Get it? ...no?
Anyway, once on our way Mr. Gunsmith advised me to keep a watchful eye on the scanning systems. Apparently there was a lot of unknown activity in the Vespucci system today. I kept my cool and calm, but inside I was giddy as a school girl. I mean, who could possibly challenge us in our twin Bisons?! Pirates and vagabonds beware! Overall though I believe Mr. Gunsmith's reputation preceeded him through the systems and trade lanes, because we saw not one single pirate along the route. A bit of a pity, I thought to myself, but "better for the protection of the cargo" Mr. Gunsmith reminded me, and of course I agreed. It wasn't completely boring though. I got in a fight with a trade lane in California that refused to allow my Bison to pass through it, and Mr. Gunsmith showed me some "entertaining" ways to travel the lanes and shared with me stories of times long past in his trading prime. After a couple of round-trips, we bid adieu at Planet Denver for the evening.
As I drift off and reflect at the end of my day, I realize how proud I am to serve with this fine company, and I really can't wait to fly at Mr. Gunsmith's wing again!
