Topic: An Exciting Return

Greetings my brothers! After some time I have returned to assist once more against the threats against Kusari. My leave of absence was due to threats made by the cursed Blood Dragons against my home, farm, and family. I would still be protecting them if I had not failed. As I was returning home from the fields I saw my home ablaze. I sprinted towards the home...to late, the roof collapsed and the house was soon nothing but rubble. My wife and child were killed.

I stood at a safe distance utterly shocked at the events that had just unfolded. I resolved that this cowardly act by the Blood Dragons would not go unanswered. So I stand before you today in a newly outfitted Black Dragon. Already I have begun to take my vengeance for what was done to me.

After my ship was equipped I decided to catch up on all the paperwork I had missed on my absence. I returned to find that there was a battle going on in Tau-23. I rushed from Tau-42 on the way to the position of the battle. On the way two of our men went down but I kept heading to the system. I arrived and engaged around six Outcast hostiles with a bomber and fighter. We took down a gunboat and two of their fighters before our bomber was gunned down. After some time another fighter went down. Then the hostile Outcast bomber was eliminated. Me and my wingman split up for duels against the two remaining scum. I scored an early razor hit on my opponent but after this it proved difficult to bring him down. Though I had more nanobots than he at this point he got tired and targeted my friend. We fought for at least another 30 minutes, not gaining much ground. Much of this was due to the fact that the Outcasts were resupplied two times by their friends. However, we took down one of them before the other ran.

I returned to Kyushu, satisfied with the kills assists and two direct kills I had gotten. A rather strange GC ship soon appeared in Kyushu however. I now call it the IT because it almost sounded like an AI but not quite. I have now come to the conclusion that it must have been a cyborg. Regardless, we exchanged threats then wheeled round and round for around 10 minutes before an ion storm hit and shut off our systems.

This was a glorious return for me and I can only hope all my days here will be this good.

Hazabachi Tokido, out.
