There's Honor Among Thieves
08 Apr 2016Maxamillion
Here's a heartwarming story.I've had a bit of a bad string of luck the past couple of days; no trips to the insurance office, but I wasn't able to meet the ends of a few contracts. All of them involved being tracked down by opposing assassins or pirates that, for some reason, think a Courier would be hauling big loot.
So tonight I was tasked with hunting down a couple bounty hunters,
hypocritical, I know
so no big deal.
However you could probably guess how I'd feel after a wanted Assault Ship decides to follow my wake after I've intercepted a Vulture. It totally escaped me that I was hauling some mission-specific cargo for a little bonus at dock. Apparently I would be mistaken, though, as it turns out the guy didn't follow my wake. He instead began to assist me on unloading onto the Vulture.
I can only imagine why this guy would have it out for this bounty hunter, as after the deed was done he could only laugh over the comms. He had no quarrels with me, and we just let each other to our own business. He never decided to try taking my cargo or bounty, and jumped somewhere else in the system.
If any of you happen to run into this guy, maybe leave his bounty for the next bounty collector instead. Suggesting that is the least I can do.
