Please Note: This is my first RP story so please be gentile. Oh also no Battleships/Cruisers were or will be stolen, purchased or barrowed (they may however be harmed) in the making of this story or character. (All other classes of ships are up for grabs, sorry pirate) Thank you,
Alls quiet as the transport slips out of the Tau 31 jump gate from Leeds. No patrols, from either the KNF or BAF are seen, but a strange dust cloud lingers around the ship. Unnatural this is, watch out for pirates mates says the old man looking out the starboard port. What do you mean pirates, there are no pirates in the Tau systems you old codger, we are more worried about the KNF finding us here. Boasts the young deck hand. This may not be the home of pirates but this is the place where one was born, where fortunes change for us all Have you ever heard of Sao Feng whispers the old man raising his left eye brow. Thats no real pirate just ghost stories to scare new crewman scoffs the deck hand. Bing, Bing sounds the intercom This is the captain no KNF vessels detected proceeding to the tau-29 gate.
Not normal an empty system during wartime the old man gives a grave look at the boy. OOOO, ghost pirates. Hahahahah the boy falls into a chair. Its not a ghost story; I was there at the beginnin. On this very ship it all began. Back when you were just lookin at the stars dreamin of adventure, I was out here makin the same run we are tonight. It was the early part of the Kasari-Britonia war. This ship at that time was registered with Planetform, the Cap got subsidies from them for makin special runs once in a while. But it didnt interfere with normal runs from Omega-49 to New Tokyo. We would get harassed by the KNF for havin a Brit tag in their space but nothing came of it. Now he, the man was born in Kasari so he was Kasari, left because of the draft so he started workin on this ship when we were on New Tokyo. He was not liked by the Kasari for dodgin or the Brits for just bein Kasari so his home was this ship.
We were comin out of the gate from Leeds when we saw a Planetform transport burst into flames. The Kasari had changed their mind on Brit traders passing through. Two gunboats & a cruiser opened up on us, our cargo containers were blasted away and so were our shields. The cap says abandon ship so we did. Lookin out the windows of the escape pods the ship was still there just driftin. Just then a BAF patrol burst in guns blazin. We were picked up and the ship dragged back to Leeds. Now only a small amount of the crew survived, the cap, pilot & just a couple of us deck hands incudin the man and me. The ship needed a lot of repair so we were stuck on Leeds until it was done. Bing, Bing: Jump complete Entering Tau-29 sounds the captains voice over the Int.com. The boys eyes meet the old mans We may make it this time. So the ship did get fixed or we wouldnt be in it now he said. The old man continued, Yes it did, but it took some time. The man didnt like hangin around. He was flamin mad at the Kasari for what they did to his home & family. He wanted revenge, so he bought a ship and headed off to get it. That is when he became the pirate Sao Feng The Howling Wind. But thats not the end of the story, some say he joined the Blood Dragons and others say hes alone. But I know the truth of it. The old man slumps back in his chair with a sly grin on his face. Bing, Bing: the captains voice came over the comm. Now entering Kasari space.
The transports red docking lights begin to blink as the ship nears Tsushima Depot. How long are planning to be on the station? the young deck hand says. Just enough time to refuel, then we are off again. Even though we now work for Cryer the cap still doesnt linger in Kasari space, The old codger mutters as he leans to look out the port to see a KNF fighter patrol pass by. He looks back at the boy Our last run in this space is almost over, look while you can we wont be back here for a long time if ever. We start our new official runs for Cryer when we return to Cambridge research.
The boy gazes out the port and says You said you knew a lot about Sao Feng, where did you hear it. Hear it the old man smiles. I didnt hear it I lived it. Laughing he sits back in the chair with a grin. The boy looks on in amazement You were a pirate? Ka-Chang The mooring & fuel lines detach from the ship. Were off again, hahaha The old man leans forward let me tell you the story. You remember our ship was in the Leeds repair bay for some time. When the man came to me with his idea to get the Kasari back for what they did. I was on board I was getting no pay just sittin in the bar. We got a small transport shuttle and headed out to find like-minded mates. On Stokes & all over Leeds we found a lot of transport crews out of work due to the Kasari transport ban. We had collected three small ships & and the transport shuttle.
We started by hitting any Samurai or Kishiro ships we found in Leeds. Soon the word of our good works was spread to any bar a transport jockey was in. The stories must have got to Planet Harris because we got a secure massage from a Planetform Rep. He wanted us to meet him on Harris in Tau-31. Bing-Bing Now docking at New Tokyo, prepare cargo for transfer. Lets make it quick says the Captain over the comm. Well this will have to wait until we're back in space, come on boy lets get to work.
It has taken some time for me to hac.....I mean find your frequency. I do so to express my gratitude for your assistance a time back with three foolish targets. Sadly, they eventually escaped my charms, but your assistance has not been forgotten. May the Void bless your travels and curse your prey:)
