Geehrte Damen und Herren,
While doing a routine sweep of Omega-7, me and Hauptfeldwebel Kreuzchen stumbled upon an eerie construct, one I immediately recognized to be a part of the organization known as the "Wilde," seeing that I have had several encounters with vessels of similar make.
It appeared to have been made of twisted metal, wiring and strange alien matter, apparently composing the ships's weapon systems. I failed to figure out how it kept itself in space nor how it was supposed to move as the vessel appeared to be entirely abandoned, merely a derelict devoid of all life. I summoned some more ships to clear the area of civilians and Hessians in the meantime, then crewed up the Seydlitz with scientists and MND personnel and called it down to the derelict's position.
We tractored the wreckage and towed it to Rheinland. In the process, Hauptfeldwebel Kreuzchen went mad and started attacking the construct, Major Drum got a panic attack and fled to Ulm where she fainted, Gefreiter Heilner got swept away by an ion attack and Weiss turned around to check on the whereabouts on all three pilots, during which Major Drum's Wraith blew up, along with an attacking Red Hessian.
While trying to wire ourselves into the construct's comms, which we named 'Apparition' for the time being, the Seydlitz also lost its comms systems, losing contact with Weiss, as well as the surviving members of the wing in the meantime. As soon as we were in contact again, we came to hear of Kreuzchen and Heilner under attack by three Mandalorians, but Weiss re-assumed escort pattern regardless.
We towed the Apparition to Berlin, wherein a Volksfront fighter spotted us. Weiss disrupted the ship before it got into range, then occupied its attention by making it think he was going to regroup with the Seydlitz, while the derelict was safely taken to Frankfurt.
Upon reaching Schatten, the station took command of the operation and the Apparition alike. The construct was seized and a research team has been developed to work with it. I devised a cover-up story for the pilots regarding a Red Hessian test drone and only Weiss actually got to see it being taken to Schatten. Let's hope there will be no complications regarding people knowing too much...
Also, I'm a bit worried that the construct may have had psychic or otherwise manipulative emissions. I'll order everyone who was in contact with the thing to partake in mental examinations, I sincerely hope this encounter didn't make Drum's already troubled state any worse.
I'll entrust the further steps of the operation to the MND and the rest of the RMHC. I hope one of my wingmen will also decide to report on what other issues we had to deal with this faithful evening.
