My first patrol since joining the Fliegerstaffel Hamburg. My friends already warned me about the Unioners activity recently so I was pretty prepared.
The shift yesterday started relaxed. I recieved my instructions from Oberst Voigt and before I began my 5 way point patrol I got to know to my new ship - the Wraith. I was used already to the instruments as I made over 100 hours in the Rheinwehr simulators. But flying this baby out there in space is really enthralling (pardon to the führung for my emotional excursus).
Waypoint 1 to 3 were routine scans of friendly merchs. On waypoint 4 three Union ships awaited me and opened fire immediately and I did not even know where there were coming from. My ship rattled. I was shaken arround as soon as the first shots hit me. I was nervous as I had my first real dogfight. It is not like in those simulators I thought by myself and those boastful radio calls from my opponents did not help at all. So all I could do was to throw myself into the fight and after a few turns and loops to evade hostile fire I got my confidence back again. I locked one of them up and gave him a salve of my Hornvipers. His shields were down by 30% and he tried to get rid of me by some wild maneuvres. I did not let up and as I soon as I was able to brake through his shields to perforate his hull I tasted blood.
I hunted them down.
After I saw the last man explode I was pumped with adrenalin and I twisted my ship under full throttle.
It took me several minutes to realize what just happened.
Theodor you are a Rheinwehr fighter now...
... and you have to kill.
