The Threat Within

The day for captain Andrew Wilson was beginning like every other day. Smugglers, foreign capital vessels. You name the threat, Liberty takes care of it.

But this day was a different one. It all started from Norfolk Shipyard, where a heavy ship on police duty was going through regular maintenance. Calibrating weaponry, aligning sensory sensitivity, and every other little thing a big ship like "Interdictor" needs every once in a while to look perfectly in comparison to 'garbage' ships operated by Liberty Rogues.

A small gallic fighter belonging to the enclave was spotted flying past the shipyard to Texas direction. Perhaps there was time to catch it off guard by firing all weapons to it, while it was docking trade lanes? This did not happen and it leads to the best or to the worst.

After finishing its maintenance, b

[14:56:15] ApexCo|VC-Verner: Ruch:Guten Tag
[14:56:31] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Torn apart which target to take down
[14:57:22] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: You again.
[14:57:35] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Yep, me.
[14:57:37] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: What are you going here and why are you tailing me?
[14:58:10] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: I am here to monitor the system for Nomads and their supporters.
[14:58:19] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: We just happen to be traveling along a similar course.
[14:58:30] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: To whom do I have the honor of speaking?
[14:58:41] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: You aren't welcome here, you know. You multiple times harassed New York citizens
[14:58:51] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: How so?
[14:58:52] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Captain Andrew Wilson is at your service. Or I guess not.
[14:59:11] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: My intentions are nothing but peaceful towards the citizens of Liberty.
[14:59:14] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I recently read through all reports in Liberty Police regarding vessels of your type.
[14:59:25] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: All those time you brought only destruction with you.
[14:59:33] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: There's your problem, friend. You're generalizing.
[14:59:59] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Wait a second.
[15:00:15] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I have a signal from trade lanes that could be what you are looking for.
[15:00:22] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I would suggest you making your way to Texas system.
[15:00:31] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Very well.
[15:00:54] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I have no means to catch you sadly, at least you would be gone from civilian areas.

/*Small time later*/

[15:03:53] Assasin: Just a pearson who got cruise distrupted?
[15:04:04] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Gallic tresspasser. You are not allowed to be here.
[15:04:09] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Your transponder, it appears to be malfunctioning.
[15:04:15] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Is everything in order?
[15:04:18] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Wait a second. You aren't having gallic ship anymore.
[15:04:31] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I can swear you had one hour ago gallic military ship
[15:04:36] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: with identifications belonging to enclave
[15:04:47] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Your weapons, they are of Nomad design. Where did you obtain them?
[15:05:10] Assasin: that enclave junk? i needed something to leave coronado
[15:05:36] Assasin: about nomad equipment, i'm one of best anti nomad units
[15:05:49] Assasin: so i wear their weapons to scare them
[15:06:01] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Alert, protocol #51. Suspect is having equipment of special category.
[15:06:07] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Uh-huh. Okay.
[15:06:11] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: You have no authorization to have them in Liberty Space.
[15:06:23] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I will not find your special license, will I?
[15:06:54] Assasin: no you wouldn't
[15:07:08] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: You didn't answer my question. Where did you obtain them?
[15:07:36] Assasin: is that so hard? from defeated nomads?
[15:07:47] Assasin: as i said i'm nomad hunter
[15:08:20] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: According to section 9, chapter 5, point 4, you are charged with breaking liberty laws about illegal weaponry.
[15:08:26] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: You think me a fool, then. Nomads are biological masses. The ships are giant life forms.
[15:08:31] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: This would be inserted into your record permamently.
[15:08:40] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: You do not simply remove a weapon that is a part of a living being.
[15:09:14] Assasin: you Order terrorist heard about nomad-hybrides?
[15:09:24] Assasin: i see you dont
[15:09:43] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Those hybrid weapons are mainly used by the infected.
[15:09:56] Assasin: why my trophes are illegal?
[15:09:58] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Which can bring me to but one assumption.
[15:10:26] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: You are either infected, or you cooperate with those who are. Both of those make you very dangerous.
[15:10:37] Assasin: you too have nomad tech onboard you could too be infected
[15:11:26] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: That's where you're wrong, kiddo. The Order is the longest standing organization whose sole purpose is to purge the Nomads.
[15:11:31] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: And anyone who stands in our way.
[15:12:23] Assasin: but as you said infected have nomad weaponry, how you want to explain that?
[15:12:33] Assasin: your blasterS?
[15:13:00] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: My blasters are the result of years of research and development.
[15:13:06] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Not sure what you are talking about, but some parts of 'Assassin's ship aren't identified as metal parts at all.
[15:13:08] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Not grabbing them willy-nilly.
[15:13:30] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: We were able to find matching frequency in our database, belonging to Silicon?
[15:13:42] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I wonder who the hell makes something from Silicon in ships
[15:14:01] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: His Cruise Disruptor and Thruster from it fully!
[15:14:18] Assasin: you heard about animals that are inflating to scare danger?
[15:14:44] Assasin: these silicon items are such things to scare enemys
[15:15:00] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Or at least something what was supposed to be where CD and Thruster should be installed.
[15:15:34] Assasin: what you mean by that?
[15:15:44] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: I simply cannot allow you to continue without verifying that you are not under the influence of Nomads.
[15:15:53] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: You can either come quietly, or we can make a mess.
[15:16:01] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Invasive scanning
[15:16:16] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I wonder if your organization uses metal probs to check people throughly
[15:16:23] Assasin: how i can prove you that i'm telling truth?
[15:16:48] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: By submitting to a full bioscan.
[15:17:21] Assasin: isn't that illegal outside med facylities?
[15:17:30] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Quite.
[15:17:47] Assasin: So do you want to break law on LPI eyes?
[15:17:49] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: That's why you'll go with the officer over there and have one done on Fort Bush.
[15:18:34] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: It can be acceptable I guess.
[15:18:55] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: In this way we can be sure to remove all illegal weaponry
[15:19:03] Assasin: i would like to do that, but stations are scared when they see my silicone things and they arent allowing me to dock
[15:19:28] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Hmm, so stationary scanners are always in alert state?
[15:19:50] Assasin: yes and I would like to know why
[15:20:35] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: No surprise I guess since you do not have registration for your thing, which are from forbidden #51 list of equipment.
[15:20:56] Assasin: So what now?
[15:21:27] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: The officer places you under arrest and confiscates your ship, I assume.
[15:21:48] Assasin: interesting i suppose?
[15:21:53] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Oh, conviniently
[15:22:05] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I have enough place in my ship, for your arrest.
[15:22:15] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: How convenient.
[15:22:20] Assasin: what are you to tell LPI what they schould do?
[15:22:29] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Past experience.
[15:22:39] Assasin: terrorist training?
[15:22:48] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Just enough to apprehend one fighter for through questioning.
[15:22:49] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: I served in the Liberty Navy, genius.
[15:23:02] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: So, no need to get close to Fort Bush.
[15:23:09] Assasin: you can prove that?
[15:23:28] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: I do not need to.
[15:23:57] Assasin: i think you need becasue your origin is unknown now
[15:24:00] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: I do not listen his orders, but currently his words help to resolve situation with broken Liberty Laws.
[15:24:43] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: So, no need to refuse, when you can kill few birds with one stone.
[15:24:57] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Excuse me, I am not a /he/. *she sounds annoyed*
[15:25:12] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Oh, forgive me my lady.
[15:25:14] Assasin: you captain of Allenwood said that you have space for one ship what with order thaen?
[15:25:31] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Initiate docking protocol, 'Assassin'
[15:25:49] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: I am perfectly willing to wait for them to finish with you before I go in for questioning.
[15:25:50] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Internal comm: Security team, stand by in docking bay.
[15:26:05] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Internal comm: Prepare team from at least 10 people just to be sure for meeting.
[15:26:21] Assasin is requesting to dock, authorise with /allowdock
[15:26:24] /dock allow
[15:26:28] Ship docked
[15:26:28] /allowdock
[15:27:05] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Internal comm: Docking sequence has been succesful. Blocking docking bay doors.
[15:27:05] Assasin: nice bar you have
[15:27:44] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: We would head to Fort Bush to delivery our guest for full questioning and medical scan.
[15:28:04] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Naturally.
[15:28:10] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Considering that I can't catch you anyway, happy waiting for Liberty fighter-class forces
[15:28:11] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Do you require my presence?
[15:28:22] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: It would fine I think.
[15:28:35] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Very well. I will leave the area, for the time being.
[15:28:37] Order|Jennifer.Shelton: Farewell.
[15:28:40] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Good bye.
[15:29:32] Assasin: And how it looks sir?
[15:30:03] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Fort Bush has been docked.
[15:30:22] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Security team, escort our guest to medical facility for through check.
[15:31:16] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Several meany looking guards grab the guest, pushing from Allenwood ship to Fort Bush corridors.
[15:31:37] Assasin: hey easy with that... i can walk you know
[15:32:05] Assasin: nice station trough
[15:32:54] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: Your cooperation would be noted. *Guards continued leading the guest, until door to medical station was reached*
[15:33:38] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Continuing to stand near doors but not going further, they offered you to go on your own to bio-scanner with doctor
[15:33:42] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: standing nearby
[15:34:25] Assasin: entering bio-scanner
[15:35:22] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Blue visible rays started to go from bottom to top slowly*
[15:35:30] Assasin: *nice light show here*
[15:35:37] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Blue visible rays started to go from bottom to top slowly*

[15:37:36] Assasin: *scared* whats that?
[15:37:45] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Alert* "Unknown bio material inside" *Alert*, metalic cold voice started to be heard
[15:38:14] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Guards visibly became ready to react any time*
[15:38:52] Assasin: unknow bio materials? hmm that could be my stomach implant
[15:41:03] Assasin: i got it from hitech hospital on planet new tokyo, because my stomach was schot during my second battle
[15:41:28] Assasin: that was hard time for me...
[15:41:54] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Doctor became curious regarding those news and continued questions* "How do they make them, from what?"
[15:42:19] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I would assume it would be best solution to clone human organs to make replacement?"
[15:43:19] Assasin: thats their mistery, *whispers; you know they would lost money if that knowledge will leak *
[15:43:28] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Getting medical hand scanner doctor continued to scan patient, making most attention around abdomen*
[15:44:50] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Doctor looked very throughful, reading results of scanning able to get* "According to results... your impant is made of...
[15:45:16] Assasin: of...?
[15:45:33] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "...by 90% percent or more from Silicon matter." *Doctor became paled to white state from getting to know it*
[15:46:20] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Visilbly shaking she tried as load she can in its state* "Full quarantine lockdown!, Get it inside isolation room immideatly!"
[15:46:41] Assasin: what!? Silicon? but this... works
[15:46:54] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Visibly shaking she tried as loud as she can yell in her state* *Full quarantine lockdown! Get it inside isolation room
[15:46:58] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: immideatly!"

[15:48:49] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "....But there are no Silicon implants"
[15:49:01] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *...But there are no Silicon implants known to human kind"
[15:49:50] Assasin: **no silicon implants known to human kidnd? what she have on mind...**
[15:49:59] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "At least not entirely made from it"
[15:50:21] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Yes we use it in our electronics. But it takes only very small percent of them"
[15:50:56] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "There are no records of ever having bio implants entirely made from Silicon, but there are records of other...."
[15:51:10] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Silicon creatures made from Silicon"
[15:51:21] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "...fully"
[15:51:27] Assasin: *trying to look through doors* hello? when you would release me?
[15:52:41] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Thoughtfully looking* "I am not prepared to make operation to cure you from it"
[15:53:12] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I would contact who can, hopefully there are specialists who dealth with it before"
[15:53:40] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I am afraid you would have to be under quarantine for this duration"
[15:53:45] Assasin: but what's wrong we me? thats just stomach through
[15:53:59] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I am afraid you would have to be under quarantin for this duration"
[15:54:29] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I am not certain that you should know... you would less worry without this knowledge"
[15:54:38] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "I suggest you making a choice"
[15:54:57] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "To wait for operation and to not seek answer for this question until it is over"
[15:55:10] Assasin: or?
[15:55:29] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Or to get answer, but it can just make your worries increased, you will have harder time to wait"
[15:55:53] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Perhaps it can be even dangerous for you to know"
[15:56:09] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Since you do not realize anything, perhaps it is just not activated"
[15:57:03] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "What would be your choice? Having chance for to be cured completely, or to risk your life and know more?"
[15:57:48] Assasin: *after a while of silence* i want to know... I woudn't sleep if i dont know whats wrong, BUT NO, i want to wait for cure
[15:58:54] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Very well, as for sleep, I can help you with it. It would better for your sleeping anyway until it is over*
[15:59:27] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Doctor started to insert commands* "Releasement of weak sleeping gas*
[15:59:42] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: "Once you are awake, it would be all over"
[16:00:00] Assasin: kind way of *yawn* helping with sleping
[16:01:01] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Soothing voice of Doctor, made your eyes heavy, until your consciousness did leave you entirely*
[16:01:18] LPI-SWAT-Allenwood: *Soothing voice of the doctor, made your eyes heavy, until your consciousness did leave you entirely*
