Again, so much has been happening since the last update. I've been really lazy with the logbook.We found Darwins kid! Finally!
How did we do it? Well... In Miphifa system, we managed to get hold of to a clipper and some forged imperial IDs. That clipper was a mess, but luckily Canonn Engineers helped us out to make it run better then ever. After that, we were on our way.
As we arrived in Summerland, there was imperial navy ships all over the system. Luckily our disquise worked out like planned.
We landed in Muller Terminal and went to the local market. There was saw Darwins kid being sold out as a slave (not like imperial slave with a contract but as a real slave) to some Imperial big shot. We were bit too late... We followed them to their landing pad, where an imperial cutter was prepared and tried to come up with some sort of rescue plan.. all we had were bad ones, but we had to try something.. and I think Empire would send all their pilots after us if they knew who we actually are..
So I went back to our clipper and took off. Slowly flew towards the landing pad they were at, while they were starting load in the cargo. Imperial security and flight control started to take interest of my hovering around the area so we had to move fast at this point. I contacted Darwin and told him to go for it as soon as the explosions happen... And I opened fire on the cargo trucks loading the cutter.
Meanwhile with all the confusion going on, Darwin managed to grab his kid and get to cover. Plan was that I'll pick the up later in Miphifa, after they book a transport there but that would've been too subtle. Instead, Darwin took his kid in to that Imperial cutter!!! And they took it off the ground and used it as escape vehicle!
We kept jumping like crazy out of the imperial space and finally made it to Daedalus station in Sol.
Vacation was in order after this. Darwin has been on Mars with his kid after the rescue and I think he will be there for a month or two longer. I decided to leave the cutter for retrofitting and integrate it as part of Canonn fleet. It has nice space to have a mobile lab in it. Took out the Stellae Errante and joined Canonn scientists in search of some alien ruins for Ram Tah.
But that's not all that's been going on.. After couple weeks, I came back and noticed that we really need more people to handle Clarion Cruises. Silly me, leaving the company without manager.. Some job interviews and try outs later, let me introduce our latest assistant manager and co-pilot Kristy Porter.
With her we've been turning the cashflow back to positive and funded lots of Canonn projects... Been so busy flying tourists all over the bubble, I think I should book a vacation for myself in our luxury ships. Hell, maybe even throw a party for Canonn people who are in the area...
And that dream just ended, CMDR Engalo just wanted a T9 with a pilot for cargo running.. no rest for the weary.
