Date: 817

Patrol Report:

Launched in my Liberator to start the shift; it seemed mostly quiet. Copied some comms traffic, seems that .:BW:. Onyx Wolfe had a trader cornered somewhere and was demanding credits. Now that trader must have been suicidal, because before I could respond, he had told the Rogue to "Just Kill Me". I can think of more pleasant ways to die other than walking up to a liberty rogue and telling him to kill me. Seems like Onyx.Wolffe got the short end of the deal, he had a CODED weapon that he salvaged from the wreckage, and wasn't able to get rid of it. It hung on to him like the proverbial albatross around the Ancient Mariner's neck.

Got a call from the Navy from Mr Gafwmn (Sorry, forgot your rank sir), seems that there was another zone 21 violation. He asked for me to back him up by covering the entrance to the mine field and stop anyone trying to get by. I had to switch out ships and pull out the SWAT guardian for this one. There were 3 perps, Kathir High Drive, Tantills, and a Alfred ? (Not sure on last name on this one..). I saw them exit Zone 21 and when I told them to halt, they ran to a Jump hole near the Texas gate. I remembered from the old smugg....I mean trading days with Captain Muldoon that this is a inter system jump hole. I think the other end comes out in the badlands... Kathir is flying a Lux liner, I had no way of stopping it. His friends have what I believe are Trains, I didn't get a good look. Mr Gwafmn went to look for them, and I kept watch over the minefield entrance. Sure enough these 3 showed up again. I fired torpedos at them, but they evaded and went into cruise into zone 21 again. I tried to catch up, but to no avail. They jumped thru the **Deleted by LSF ** gate and disappeared. Mr Gafwmn returned and told me they were KOS. Now I think that needs clarification, because that might be just 3K around zone 21. I will send a separate message to the Chief about it.

Landed the Swat ship and put it away for the night. Had dinner and caught up on my paperwork.

Launched back out into Manhattan orbit, and resumed my patrol. .:BW:. Onyx Wolffe was STILL trying to to sell that CODENAME. A Smart Alecky trader tried to play off that he was going to buy the weapon from him and then have me run in and arrest him. Wolffe is too smart for that. I told the trader it wouldn't be a good idea to try that, he would end up dead.

Another trader that fell into Onyx Wolffe's trap tried running for it to the Manhattan gate. All I know was that one second it was quiet, next thing I know a full scale war erupted out of the trade lane. Wolffe destroyed the traders ship, and made it back into the trade lane and disappeared as I chased him down.

Next up is another smuggler, Rapidtrade. Had a ship full of artifacts. I ordered him to stop, he kept on going in cruise and got out of scanner range. I think his fine is going to be doubled when I catch him.

I thought things were going to quiet down, but Outcast Selina.Revette came into the system wanting another piece of me (Hmmm, maybe she didn't get enough of me the first time around). Suddenly we were off to the races. We fought and fought and fought, and in the end, one of her mines made it thru my weakened shield and vaporized the back half of the ship.

So you can probably guess by now that I had to take a life pod back home. The Maintenance officer snickered something at me as I went past about a "Winning streak of one...".

End of report.
