Today I launched my fighter on a routine patrol in New Tokyo. In few minutes I met up with Chūjō [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya. There had been reports of a couple of Golden Chrysanthemum vessels in the system. Although Ion storms were strong at the moment, causing frequent navigation errors, we assumed thorough search of the system.
It wasn't long before the reports proved to be true. In a rather amusing fashion: Communication log excerpt:

[23.08.2010 17:36:34] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: And you are saying this in open chanels, how stupid.
[23.08.2010 17:36:54] [KNF]Taiki.Ono: high on cardmine again, I guess
After a while of the search, we found the Chrysanthemums in Honshu, near New Tokyo gate.
It was soon clear enough that they were looking for a fight, "a vengeance" as they called it. Communications log excerpt:
Quote:[23.08.2010 17:45:38] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Mumbles something in an accent then puts the helmet back.*
[23.08.2010 17:45:39] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Whispering* What's that, J-...
[23.08.2010 17:45:47] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: The time has come, Sister.
[23.08.2010 17:45:48] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Frowns a little*
[23.08.2010 17:45:52] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Hai...
[23.08.2010 17:45:57] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: The time for vengeance.
[23.08.2010 17:46:00] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: oh atleast I found this womans...
[23.08.2010 17:46:07] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: You may try to preach to those murderers.
[23.08.2010 17:46:13] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: But I will not.
[23.08.2010 17:46:24] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Me neither, sister.
[23.08.2010 17:46:36] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Points* dogs of the Emperor!
[23.08.2010 17:46:47] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: You're responsible for the destruction of the Wind and Blossom.
[23.08.2010 17:46:57] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: not all of us dogs as you say
[23.08.2010 17:46:59] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: It has been decided that blood shall be taken for blood.
[23.08.2010 17:47:08] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: That underlings shall be taken for Sisters.
[23.08.2010 17:47:16] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: In a fight for life.
[23.08.2010 17:47:27] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: *Nods.*
[23.08.2010 17:47:41] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: Sister. Chi. Commence the attack with all of Matsuda's might!
[23.08.2010 17:47:41] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Nods aswell, kissing her amulet once*
[23.08.2010 17:47:47] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: Wind of blossom attack our forces first, and well he was carrying large ammunt of our pilots
[23.08.2010 17:47:50] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: Hai.
[23.08.2010 17:48:16] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: Hm. They aren't even moving?
[23.08.2010 17:48:28] [GC]-Junko.Okanaya;: No mercy, sister. They showed none either.
[23.08.2010 17:48:36] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: well if you want to fight, you will get what you want
[23.08.2010 17:48:41] [GC]-Chi.Shimizu: *Nods once more* For the Sisterhood...Junko-san.
A fight ensued.
Exactly ten minutes later [GC]-Chi.Shimizu fell by the hand of Chūjō Takaya.
As the battle continued, ion storm became even worse than before. It blanked my systems for a short while, and when they came back online second Chrysanthemum was already fleeing in cruise few k's away. Since pursue was hardly possible due to space conditions, we let her go this time.

[23.08.2010 18:06:25] [KNF]Kagakagari.Takaya.: our methods? oh its our generosity
I docked on nearest friendly station to wait out the storm and write the report.
