D'Autoine, Davids hier.

If you get any interceptor reports, forward zhem on zhis frequency. No discussion about zhis anymore, allright?
Though I somehow understand your view. Seems like both interceptors #5 and #9 messed up in Bretonia again.
It just makes me wonder why zhey did not get shot down by anyone...

Anyway, zhis is what #5 has forwarded to me when he returned from Bretonia just yesterday:

Commander Davids, this is your favourit interceptor-pilot reporting in. So, where do I start this little story now?
Ah, yes. Heard from those primariy pri...eh, agents, that they were looking for some volunteers for a recon mission
into Bretonia. And yes, that mission sounded like fun....If someone had not let #9 out of the paddled cell again.

Anyway. Our recon team consisted at the beginning as follows:

• Aaron Lemuria
  
• Tigris Euphrates from the primary fleet
  
• #9 from the paddled cell
  
• The one and only Interceptor #5
  

Samual Kane was about to join us in Bretonia later on.

Our flight path was through the Omicrons, Omegas and then finally Cambridge. Sir, before I go on, I want
to say on this: Someone get the systemwide frequency on #9'ship disabled. I mean, really, it was pure luck
no hostile ships had found us. Though I made sure that there was no Core ship in Delta by asking system-wide.
Smart, eh?

Where was I? Ah, yeah. Well, when we finally entered Bretonia, the whole choas began.
First of all, #9 messing up with our patience by asking stupid questions about trade lanes. And then the best one:
Agent Eurphrated told us, that the base we were about to check out was behind in New Londong right on
the other side of the jumpgate connection. I somehow thought it was a bad idea to use the jumpgate, but
when did even anyone listen to my words? Never did anyone of course.

Ah well, they should have listend, because both Euphrates' and Lemuria's little Onuris fighters got shot right
away when entering New London. Too bad those little defense plattforms did not get #9 either. That would
have been of use to all of us.

Unfortunately, #9 survived with me and so we were both to tractor in the escape pods of the fellow agents,
get the needed intel and meet with Kane in high orbit of New London.

Regarding the base King's Cross. Quite heavily defended. Two Solaris plattforms right benath the jumpgate.
I suppose those were the ones that got Lemuria and Euphrates. 2 more plattforms with Cerberus turrets.
Looks like the Brets' expect to see some heavy action at the gate.

#9 went on with Kane to convince some civilians of our cause, while I headed for Omega-49 to get that
intel about the bases in New Londong to you.

I just hope that some stupid Bretonians blew up #9's ship. Would spare a paddled cell and me some nerves.

#5 signing off.

Ah, damnit, almost forgot to send you the needed records from the flight:

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Nun, as you can see, despite zhe fact zhat #5 and #9 took part in zhis mission, it was successfull.
Somehow ein mirarcle.


Davids out.
