The Arch Storm

[aerelm]

One mind, one goal, one purpose...
Shugotenshi

We move out for another hunt. With others we meet up. And with Gifts we return.
We move to Kyushu Star, where an IMG Gunboat we meet. He carries Gifts but greed stops him from dropping them.

Shugotenshi: Konnichiwa Warrior.
Shugotenshi: And the... Well, Miner.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Konnichiwa
[color=black]Blonde.Bimbo: The regular pirates you can have for free, but the outcasts brings in at least 12k a piece!
Shugotenshi: Ah... Greed.
Shugotenshi: Never thought of doing your Emperor a service, for Respect and Honor?
Blonde.Bimbo: I need that cash to repair the damages they caused!
Sasuke.Ogawa: Pilot please do what we asked
Blonde.Bimbo: Not without some compensation!
Sasuke.Ogawa: All pilots must be in detention in our hold
Sasuke.Ogawa: That wont be possible
Shugotenshi: You shall gain trust of your Emperor, How would that not be a good enough reason?
Shugotenshi: Shame on you and your greed...
Shugotenshi: This is not always about a few worthless credits.
Blonde.Bimbo: Well... As i said there were damages to my ship when they attacked me, and they must pay for that.
Shugotenshi: They shall pay with their lives, once they've presented themselves in front of Emperor-sama.
Sasuke.Ogawa: We cannot know that you will give them to proper authorites, so they will be in our hold, so we can make sure they are
Blonde.Bimbo: And who will pay for my repairs? hmmm?
Shugotenshi: You can fill out an official complaint against those Outcast fools.
Sasuke.Ogawa: I dont see any real damages on you ship pilot
Sasuke.Ogawa: You will be fine
Shugotenshi: Emperor-sama is generous enough to reward those who honor him and risk themselves for him.
Shugotenshi: But those with Greed... Sooner or later their greed puts them in some serious trouble...
Blonde.Bimbo: *laughs* No, repairs have been made, but the bill hasn't been settled!
Blonde.Bimbo: And do you think the outcasts will pay for it?
Shugotenshi: And you should be proud of yourself for serving your Emperor... Not worrying about a cheap repair bill!
Blonde.Bimbo: And how, if I may ask, am I to be sure that YOU bring them to the proper authorities?
Sasuke.Ogawa: Well, we are the proper authorites
Shugotenshi: Hai. Because -We- are the proper Authorities!
Blonde.Bimbo: I mean... Disrupting trade lanes isn't standard procedure for Kusari officials.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Cant you recognize the members of the Honourable Imperial Navy Forces
Shugotenshi: *Points at the wrekage of 2 Dragon fighters 2 klicks away*
Shugotenshi: See those?
Shugotenshi: They have already disrupted the Lane when we got here.
Shugotenshi: So don't your dare question our authority here.
Blonde.Bimbo: I recognize the ships, but your IFFs say different.

Then a Kempeitai arrives, questioning our presence there. Rude and Disrespectful, he decides to take the conversation into his own hands. We don't like his move.

tieng.Lung|KPT: what is going on here?
Shugotenshi: Konnichiwa Lung-San.
Blonde.Bimbo: Now, here is a proper KNF. Let's ask him!
tieng.Lung|KPT: Konnichiwa
Sasuke.Ogawa: Konnichiwa
Shugotenshi: This foolish Gaijin is saying he has a better judgement than the Honorable Emperor of Kusari!
tieng.Lung|KPT: how so?
Blonde.Bimbo: These pilots are asking me to drop my cargo!
Shugotenshi: Deciding to keep those Criminals in his Hold and refusing to Drop them, so the -Proper Authorities- can take care of them.
tieng.Lung|KPT: oh dear , touchy issue
Blonde.Bimbo: How so?
tieng.Lung|KPT: and no KSP in the vicinity to solve this
Shugotenshi: Hai, Maybe the Warriors have issues to take care of elsewhere.
Shugotenshi: But that does not mean this foolish gaijin should question Our Authority, and Emperor-Sama's Judgement!
tieng.Lung|KPT: Bimbo san, well, at least trade them to me, il do what i can to get them in propper hands
Sasuke.Ogawa: We can handle this ourselves, no need to get them involved
Blonde.Bimbo: I've tried to explain that those pirates attacked my ship and lost. Hence I'm bringing them in to the authorities.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Hai
Blonde.Bimbo: That way I can be compensated for damages.
tieng.Lung|KPT: Right, i am an authority , so you can handle them to me
Blonde.Bimbo: Very well! Stand by for transfer! *static*
Shugotenshi: Oh warrior... "Respect the Best, as they come the First".
Shugotenshi: It's so rude of you to distract this matter in such manners.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Why was that a problem before pilot?
tieng.Lung|KPT: now move along IMG, safe journey
Blonde.Bimbo: I wasn't too sure about your methods!
Blonde.Bimbo: Officer! I expect to be compensated for this!
tieng.Lung|KPT: Move on , Bimbo san
tieng.Lung|KPT: I will forward your case
tieng.Lung|KPT: through the competent channels
Blonde.Bimbo: So you're not gonna compensate me?
Shugotenshi: You have been honored to server the Mighty Emperor of Kusari, That's a well enough "Compensation" for you.
tieng.Lung|KPT: No, I cant, its not my function
tieng.Lung|KPT: But ill put the burocratic machine in movement
tieng.Lung|KPT: a month, maybe two
tieng.Lung|KPT: maybe more
Shugotenshi: Move along now Miner.
Blonde.Bimbo: Hmmm! Typical! And after that the money will have gotten stuck in the red-tape, leaving nothing for me! Thanks for nothin'
tieng.Lung|KPT: wel there are burocratic expanses
tieng.Lung|KPT: but please, proceed to your destination
Blonde.Bimbo: Baaah... "Bureucratic expenses", my butt!
tieng.Lung|KPT: safe journey
Sasuke.Ogawa: Whatch your manners Pilot, there is a lady here.

The Miner leaves and we turn to the Kempeitai, trying to regain what is ours.

Shugotenshi: Now, Lung-San.
Shugotenshi: It was so Rude of you in distract us like this.
tieng.Lung|KPT: you mean me?
Shugotenshi: Hai.
Shugotenshi: As of "Respect the Best, as they come the First."
tieng.Lung|KPT: you seem to have a transponder malfunction
Shugotenshi: We were already handling the matter at hand...
Shugotenshi: But yet... Not unlike those foolish gaijins... You just come in and start to talk?
tieng.Lung|KPT: the malfunction might be the reason why he denied your requests
Shugotenshi: No respect for Warriors? No respect for your Borthers?
tieng.Lung|KPT: my apologies, but as I said you seem to have a transponder malfunction
Shugotenshi: Such a Shame on you... Such a Shame!
Shugotenshi: I'd rather see the Apologies in your actions, not your words.
tieng.Lung|KPT: I sugest you fix that glitch
Shugotenshi: Hai, It'll be fixed as soon as we return to Myoko.
Shugotenshi: Now, if you are really willing to apologize...
Shugotenshi: What about you hand over the Criminals who should've originally belonged to my Hold, not yours?
tieng.Lung|KPT: what unity you belong to? so that i can contact you commanding officer
tieng.Lung|KPT: care to explain why?
tieng.Lung|KPT: again: name, rank and unity
tieng.Lung|KPT: give me the name of your unity and commanding officer and it will be solved
Shugotenshi: Don't you dare to change the subject!
Shugotenshi: You either have Honor, and this matter will be solved between two of us... Or you do not have Honor, so you don't deserve to be in that Ship, carrying the Transponder of Mighty Emperor of Kusari.
tieng.Lung|KPT: well? you going to identify yourselfes or not?
Shugotenshi: And both me and Ogawa-san Outrank you severely. So don't question our words.
Shugotenshi: Back to the matter at hand...
Shugotenshi: Prove your Honor, and show your respect. I'm awaiting for those Pilots.
tieng.Lung|KPT: really? what is your rank then? and why I never heard of you?
Sasuke.Ogawa: As we are members of the Hanta Iseijin, we need not to give you any informations to you
Shugotenshi: *Holds a hand up* Enough Ogawa-san.
Shugotenshi: This fool should learn to respect a Warrior no matter what... Not because he gets outranked.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Hai.
tieng.Lung|KPT: hanta iseijin, a moment
tieng.Lung|KPT: I am comunicating with my head quarters . lets verify that unit
tieng.Lung|KPT: now you are really strange , do you know my rank? so how do you know that I dont outrank you? hmm?
Sasuke.Ogawa: Nobody in Kempetai is even close to what the Hanta is ,pilot.
Shugotenshi: Contact your 'Head Quarters', You'll see when they command you to obey our orders at all cost.
tieng.Lung|KPT: Hold on , i am stil waiting instructions
tieng.Lung|KPT: ok, I must contact the commander of the Iseijin then
tieng.Lung|KPT: of the hanta
Shugotenshi: *Sighs* You don't understand then, do you?
Shugotenshi: How long have you served the Emperor?
Shugotenshi: I don't think it's been longer than a week or two, as you're acting like a complete untaught fool.
tieng.Lung|KPT: that is for me and the Emperor to know and you to wonder
Shugotenshi: Now, Stop this disrespectful argues and hand over the Pilots.
tieng.Lung|KPT: negative
Shugotenshi: Or else... I shall teach you a lesson of Honor and might, so you won't dare to question a Warrior ever again!
tieng.Lung|KPT: no, you are out of line
Sasuke.Ogawa: Or else we will hold you as an insubordinate soldier.
Sasuke.Ogawa: And a traitor to the Empire.
Shugotenshi: *Sighs* Ogawa-San, Contact his High Ranking Officer... Tell them this traitor will be serving in his Escape Pod from now on.
Sasuke.Ogawa: Hai
tieng.Lung|KPT: and attacking a Kusari officer means that you are out of line and maybe even outlawed
Sasuke.Ogawa: Kill that traitor Shugotenshi-san, this will be his last betreyal to the Empire

Not a Warrior even to the very least, He does not last long. And what is ours we repossess. Back toward the Tokyo Gate we move, where we meet an unusually silent trader... Flying a Bretonian Freighter.

Shugotenshi: Konnichiwa Trader, Please cut your engines for a Cargo Scan.
Shugotenshi: Hmm... Where is the Cargo headed?
Shugotenshi: I said Hold.
Shugotenshi: And answer the Question.
Shugotenshi: *Sighs*
Sasuke.Ogawa: Stop, said the man
Shugotenshi: Trying to sneak the Cargo to Bretonia then, I take?
Shugotenshi: Silent, Moving toward Borders of Kusari in a Bretonian Ship...
Shugotenshi: I would take it as a Blockade Runner.
Sasuke.Ogawa: You will pay fo that
Shugotenshi: Sasuke-san, Take care of him.

Shugotenshi: Perfect Shot warrior. *Bows slightly*

Ship damaged from earlier fight, and supplies running low, we decide to take supplies from a Trader and the Escort. They were easy.

Shugotenshi: Konnichiwa
Shugotenshi: Please hold for a Cargo Scan.
[A_C]Ringoku: Greetings
[A_C]Ringoku: okey
Shugotenshi: Hmm... Ogawa-san, are my scanners malfunctioning?
[A_C]Ringoku: something wrong?
Shugotenshi: A Luxury Liner loaded up with Mining Machinery?
[A_C]Ringoku: hard time
Sasuke.Ogawa: I guess, the mining machinery needs a vacation too..
Shugotenshi: *Shakes his head* Either way... Where is the Cargo headed?
[A_C]Ringoku: Tau 23
[A_C]Ringoku: for Miners on Jawa
Shugotenshi: *Checks his Console* Hai, it reads out well.
Shugotenshi: But before you go...
[A_C]Ringoku: yes?
Shugotenshi: Mind aiding Warriors of Emperor so they fulfill their Duty at best?
Shugotenshi: We ran into a traitor earlier... Made me waste some Nanobots and Ammo.
Shugotenshi: Maybe you and your escort would be kind enough to resupply my ship?
[A_C]Ringoku: Resupply sure
Shugotenshi: *Nods* Arigato.
[A_C]Ringoku: i will resuply

And numerous gifts we gather,

[color=black]And to The Arch we returned...
