New found Friend
11 May 2016Mika024
29 March 3302Days have past since I began this uncertain journey and everything has been fairly uneventful. Yes I have seen numerous new stars but after a while it gets kinda boring. One thing is for sure and that is that Space is the perfect place to reflect about your life decisions. That has gotten me pretty down lately so I docked at a station and decided to go to a bar. After a couple of hours a man went towards me and said
Space can be a lonely place, uh?and went over to the bartender and order another round of beer. After a couple of hours of talking about a little of everything, he offered me to accompanying him to do a delivery mission and handed me some credits for the job. I said "yeah why not?" I wasn't doing anything productive anyway. He's name was CMDR FrAlgan, I was impressed he had the title of CMDR but he was still a novice.
Everything went smooth until we we're about to make our last jump, everything turned around 360. I noticed from my wing that he was being interdicted, I was surprised because I didn't saw any contacts on my Comms Panel. I immediately nav-lock onto him and we went out of super-cruise. I was nervous, this was my first combat situation. I targeted him and it was a Fer-de-lance with the rank "Dangerous" but my computer didn't catch his name, without warning he started shooting at CMDR FrAlgan and he retaliated. I deploy my hard-points and engage in battle, all of the experience I had was only simulation combat, but this doesn't compare at all, the rush, the adrenaline, the fear of this being your last day. CMDR FrAlgan Adder was being wrecked by the FDL and we weren't doing any damage at him because his shields we're still up. I message him to run but he didn't pay attention, we manage to lower his shields and I notice CMDR Fralgan's haul was going under 20% I freaked out, and this my shields were still up I throttle full speed over to the FDL and rammed him over, after flipping around I manage to stabilize and shot my last rounds of Multi-Cannons and saw him explore right before my eyes. I killed a person, a person I didn't knew, I didn't even knew what his name was. I was in shock for 3 minutes, but I came to my senses after FrAlgan message me. He's haul was at 9% we needed to docked somewhere and so we did, I won a bounty of 167,000 credits... but I wonder was hes life really worth 167,000 credits?
My only reconciliation right now it's that I saved my new found friend life. I need some rest.
