Hola, Ustedes.

I am just checking in to report my recent activities. I awoke today with alarms blaring as an officer chimed into my comm system telling me that a large wing of Colonials had entered the system and engaged some of the Rookies that think they can fly. I arrived at my ship and, since it was prepped, launched. As I exited the atmosphere 14 red hostile tags were picked up by my sensors. I immediately warmed up the weapons and heading into the fray. Our pilots seemed glad to see me. One Ranseur was under attack by all of the Colonials, a Spirit gunboat showed up and they quickly shot it down. I ordered all fighter pilots to engage my target: Ensign Tucker. They did not listen. Soon all were disabled. I remained and began the jousting with Tucker. At least some of the CR's had scruples enough to not engage. The fight was......interesting. I scored some shots with my Dulzians and Mini, but nothing that disabled him. After a few more passes he launched a series of mines, then a stray Cruise Disruptor tripped all of their sensors. I attempted to evade but the explosions disabled my manual controls, and blew the fighter's power grid. After being put out of action I watched my enemies leave. I was furious at my immaturity as a fighter pilot.



Upon being towed to Malta and having all systems returned to normal, after ten long hours, I launched again and started my scheduled patrol. As soon as I left Malta a red popped up again. He piloted an Eagle with Gallic tags, The Maquis. I stopped him and asked him why he entered Alpha. He explained that he is sneaking by to kill Nomads. Stunned by his blatant rebelliousness, I back away and turn on my targeting systems. We engaged and it was a short fight.

Afterwards I travelled to 23 and found and IMG coming to the Jumphole. I quaintly asked him to turn back and he offered to duel. I accepted and we danced.
