A lost cruiser

Martin was on Freeport 11 testing the Order vessels the Genesis received not too long ago from Legacy, when a GRG operative has come looking for him all over the station with a pad in his hand.

"Sir! Sir!"

The young pilot crouched a bit as he was out of breath, like he has run a three hours marathon. When Martin turned to see from where this voice came, he saw the pilot, in his all black with the GRG symbol outfit, all sweaty from the run. As he took a bit of breath, he then started.

"Sir, you need to see this. Not too long ago, operative Neit, has interacted with a Rheinland Cruiser-class vessel, which has said that they have malfunctions. So he has escorted them in Omega-41, to Freeport 5, from where they contacted the Board, which has offered to repair said malfunctions. But not even an hour later to the response, we have received this distress call from the same vessel, that they were under attack by Corsairs. What should we do?"

As the operative gives Martin the pad, he started looking at all the data they've had about the cruiser. And it seemed strange indeed the fact that a crew survived for how long they claim, as they didn't even knew about the civil war, but it was a ship in distress.
He took a small break before speaking.

"Do you know it's position?"

The pilot takes the pad, opens up a map of Omicron Kappa and shows him the location.

"It's here, sir."

Then Martin turns back to his "Bastet" and thinks of what should do next, how much forces to send, etc. He's still not convinced, but he wants to give them a shot.

"Send a fighter wing accompanied by a bomber squadron. Secure and do a risk assestment on the spot. We don't want trouble with the Corsairs, so before sending in the repair ships, make sure they are gone. If there is anything else needed, contact me directly, understood?"

The operative nodded, and then went back to his vessel, to prepare for the flight back in Omicron Kappa.
