Following a prolonged patrol of Kusari today with our Chrysanthemum sisters, we were tipped off by an anonymous source about a Kishiro vessel in the New Tokyo system; positioned approximately 140,000km above Shinagawa Station. Though reluctant at first, myself and the GC proceeded to investigate.
As luck would have it, the source was correct. We were greeting by a Zoner flagged Shukensha going by the name Kishiro|Aoshima.
This 'Kishiro' was apparently in the process of undertaking an experiment utilising a jump drive. - They explained how that ship was unable to use the jump drive itself, due it's lack of power, however; from my understanding, they aimed to re-purpose wormhole technology in order to be able to 'teleport smaller objects' as one of the GC put it. To my knowledge, this is indeed theoretically possible. Imagine being able to 'teleport' small asteroids or even explosives into another vessel or even planet.
Our conversation needlessly dragged out for a while, it was almost as though we were giving them more ideas the more we talked. - The thought of destroying this vessel crossed my mind, however I felt that killing civilian scientists would have been a dishonourable act at this time, especially when they have yet to succeed in perfecting the technology. Furthermore, the GC appeared reluctant to attack also. Instead, I prompted to extort the scientists for $20,000,000 credits, splitting the funds between myself and my wingmen.
I suggest keeping a close eye on these developments. - If they are able to reach a breakthrough it may be in our best interests to seize this technology for ourselves.
My actions or lack thereof may have consequences, of which I am willing to take full responsibility for.
