What a Piece of Junk

What a piece of junk.I’m recording this in a cantina in Flint Station, Apoyota. Don’t want the 86251 to hear me disparaging her. They can get sensitive, you know.
She has a dinky little cargo hold, a paper thin shield, two pop-gun lasers and drives that couldn’t beat my old granny in a race. The distributor runs out of energy before killing even one eagle, and I could barely keep up with him on boost.
I gave her a little TLC and took her for a spin. Did a little bounty hunting, some exploring and some errands for local factions.
She’s got a great heart, and gave her all. She did everything I asked of her.
Made a few credits, but nothing big. At this rate, I should have enough to pick up an Imperial Eagle when I deliver her to Zemetii. If I keep doing errands I might have enough to pimp her a bit.
Which reminds me, the factions here support the Federation. I need to start moving back to Imperial Territory.
But at least I’m back in space!
