804 AS Curacao Courier TRAGEDY IN SIGMA-19!
Luxury Liner 'Aphrodite's grace' hijacked!
Saturday evening on the Luxury Liner 'Aphrodite's grace', which is on its way through the Sigma-19 System towards Planet Hiran. Following descriptions were made by the few passengers and crewmen who managed to get away in lifeboats and were picked up by a GMG freighter later.
'Suddenly there were concussions and vibrations all over the ship, seconds after alarm sirens went off. The Captains voice came over the speakers, ordering the passengers to their quarters and the crew to battle stations, it was obvious we were under attack, and that this was not an exercise.'
'When I manned my gun turret on the aft side of the 'Aphrodite', the scene I was looking at made my blood freeze in my veins. The massive silhouette of a Pilgrim class Slave Liner, accompanied by a wing of menacing Borderworld line fighters, showing Outcast markings on their flanks. Seconds later, the Captains voice sounded in my Headset 'Negotiations have failed, all gun stations, return fire!' I don't remember much after that, we opened fire, shot down one or two of the fighters when my turret was hit by a salvo of the Pilgrim liner and I lost consciousness.'
'When the tactical officer yelled 'Shields are failing, prepare for hullbreaches!' the until now well coordinated bridge crew went into chaos. Orders were yelled, the sound of explosions and impacts echoed through the ships corridors and soon after, our last weapon station went down soon and the Captain, heavy hearted, took the microphone and announced 'To all personnel, stand down and prepare for boarding parties'. I remember that, despite the Captain requested them to go to their quarters, the Sky family who owned the 'Aphrodite' was on the bridge all the time, with their 15-year old daughter staring through the front window on the attackers all the time.'
''To all personnel, stand down and prepare for boarding parties' was the last message coming from the bridge. I hid myself in one of the equipment cabinets in a corridors, and not a moment to soon! The Outcasts were indeed boarding the 'Aphrodite', rounding up passengers and crewmembers alike, shooting and stabbing everyone down who dared to stand up and fight. I remember I saw even the owner of the 'Aphrodite' with his family being forced down the corridor, being brought into the massive belly of the other vessel.'
The floating debris of the once gracious Luxury vessel was found soon after by a GMG patrol who picked up the ships distress call, the Outcasts must have blown the ship to bits, and with it everyone who didn't manage to get on one of the lifeboats.

812 AS Curacao Courier FLAMING DEBRIS IN CORTEZ AND MAGELLAN!
Slavers shot down.
More and more reports about downed slaver vessels and freed people are reaching our editorial department even as we speak. It seems that someone has painted a big red cross on all vessels hauling slaves towards the edgeworlds and is doing some serious target practice with them.
There is a considerable amount of freed people who own their lives to a certain person whose name won't be given away in favor of the protection of said person.
Slavers be warned, the Avenging Angel is about to get you!
