Akibara-senpai,

I can confirm that Freeport 11.5 was destroyed by the order, however, I have more news than that.

A Wilde Gunboat attacked the freeport and lured us away on a nearly 20 minute goose chase, which resulted in the destruction of my vessel, the Konpaku, which I'm sure you've seen, given that the ~5KT Nuclear/Anti-Matter Blast that occured due to the SCRAM failure that ensued from such a heavy beating. Rest assured that I and my AI are safe aboard the Vibrant Songs, and I have undergone a total medical scan to ensure that I am not infected or contaminated. Konpaku was insured, and a new vessel will be delivered to the Freeport in a day or two.

I mean not to offend by this statement, but to show you and the people of Freeport 11, with full authenticity of said statement by the near-death risk I had today - that I will defend Freeport 11 to the bitter end, even if it means my life. You and the people of this station are my family. You see, I am not sirius-born. I originally came from Earth, and had remained frozen for years at the behest of Kishiro and the Kusari Government. Only until recently was I unfrozen. What has happened between then and now is not important right now. What is, is this. You and the people of this station are all that I have. I have done everything in my power to aid my home, putting my very life on the line for the safety of the people I love. I want this message to be a public statement to those who live on Freeport 11. As long as I live, I will do everything in my power to defend all of you. For you have given me a family, where I had had none before. To quote Marisa Kita, the one who brought me here, the one who convinced me to call Freeport 11 my home - May Eleven never fall.
