So another tale you wish to hear? You remember the Black Hole of the Inner system? Well in one time, near the first century of living in the Sirius Sector. An expedition of twenty of the best House pilots were sent to the edge of Omicron Theta to test their new Shuttle. Their destination was the Centre of our galaxy to close this Black Hole case for good. This project was first known as the PROJECT:: KAPPA. Project Kappa housed the first ever thrusters built within the colonies. The Shuttle managed to hold twenty of them as well as a gigantic Powerplant called the TITANIC-17X. This powerplant later on would be the default fit for every Capital ship ever made. Anyway one day, the houses sent fleets along with the Capsule of the shuttle. As soon as it would disembark, the capsule would disintegrate and the shuttle would be released into the vacuums of unknown space. There have been a few logs made by some crewman of the Shuttle which I just happen to have. Ah, here we are
PILOTS LOG DAY 2:
This is Sir Frierdermann of the Rheinland Military. I am a Sergeant of the great artillery regime, well was the sergeant of the great artillery regime. Now I am here on this massive shuttle headed to the centre of the Galaxy to prove whether there is a supergiant Black Hole or not. I'm already home-sick. I wish I was back on Planet Hamburg sipping Steinlager and eating Frankfurters. Those are nice. Anyway, nothing to report, just empty vacuums of Particle clouds and desolate planets. Although, I thought I did see a Rheinland Wraith flying beside us for a few seconds, then it disappeared. It must be my mind playing tricks on me. Anyway, it is time for us to get some sleep. At this rate, we won't be near the Black Hole until the end of the month. God bless.
PILOTS LOG DAY 8:
This is Ma'am Mary Ballencourt of the Liberty Senate. Nothing to report so far, however there was an unexpected gas leak on day 5, but that was clearly patched up. We must've hit an asteroid while passing through an asteroid field. I swear my mind is playing tricks on me. I swore, in the distance, I saw a massive Blue thing, sort of the same size as the old battleships like the Yamato and the Reliant before we left Sol. Anyway, I turned around for a second and when I looked back, it was gone. I seriously wish I was back on Planet Manhattan attending important political meets with the other house senates. Instead, I'm on this hunk of metal with nineteen other random people. I wish I was home already
PILOTS LOG DAY 12:
This is Sir James McArthur. At the current moment, all we see now are strange. I swear the other day, I looked out a shuttle window and saw a ship graveyard! Filled with Corsair Recon fighters. I've never seen such a sight! All of us saw them so we can't be imagining them. Also, Mary noticed she saw a strange blue ship on day 6, well today, I saw it too, as did a couple other crew members. They deemed it was strange. I noticed that it wouldn't be hostile, otherwise we would've been dead already. Day and day, we are closer to the centre of the Galaxy and near the Centre of the our hard work. I can't wait for it to be over.
PILOTS LOG DAY 21:
This is secretary Hideyoshi of the Japanese Political Agenda sending out a distress call to any who can reach us! We appear to have stumbled upon a desolate Desert planet deprived of any resources. Repairs will take weeks if we even find all our parts. Our engines were shot down by strange Blue things! They were accompanied by a weird green monster. All the blue things were shooting us with strange blue lasers while the Green monster seemed to be controlling them. As soon as our engines were critically damaged, they disappeared without a trace! Not to mention the other day, I saw a Dragon ship floating and keeping pace with our Shuttle. Even if it was possible for a Pilot to make it out this far without Fuel Cell's, there would be no way for it to keep up with us. We were travelling near the Speed of Light, and the ship wasn't even spluttering. I watched it carefully and noticed something. When it disappears, a small veil appears around it then it closes in and disappears. I don't even know what's going on anymore. I never signed up for this.
PILOTS LOG DAY 37:
This is John Devin. Our ship has been overrun by some sort of blue snakes. I was with the others when one crawled down some poor guys throat, and shot his mate. I managed to make it to the bridge with five other people. The rest of the shuttle has been overrun by these blue snakes as well as possessed humans. It's like something of a horror movie or something. We are currently on the edge of the Inner Plate of the Galaxy and should be converging on the Centre of the Galaxy in a few days now. I hope its soon. I've always wanted to see the Black Hole or whatever is there. However, it better be while I'm still alive. There's noway I'm going to be dead when we reach it.
PILOTS LOG DAY 39:
Oh my lord. We reached our destination. There really is a black hole at the centre of our galaxy! But that's not all. Scans indicate structures around the Black Hole as well as a few immobile stations positioned everywhere through the system. This is nothing like we imagined! All our brethren will be proud of the discovery we made. To hell with humanity! We found our home! My masters are alive and well. You human's won't be around to see it however, We'll be sure of that..
Two month's after their departure, the shuttle landed on Planet Mojave in California. As soon as it did, it became a Universal Crisis. The Bretonia Armed forces, The Kusari Naval Forces as well as the Liberty Navy appeared and quarantined nearly most of the whole system. The log's were said to have been extracted by Kusari Special Forces, and burned. However, they weren't. They were kept in the Heaven's Gate, current home of Tegaki, whom is now deceased. When Edison Trent, Ozu Kun, and Lord Hakkera broke in, I did too and stole various artefacts and many other trinkets. But that doesn't matter. What does matter, is that this shuttle became the home of not just human pilots, but the Nomads, which I'm sure you know by now. If you look closely, You can still see the Crater upon which the shuttle crashed into.
That's all I can say today, my breathes are getting rather raspy with all this talking. I think next time however, we can discuss about how the 80 year war actually began, and it wasn't anything to do with the Rheinland Military and the GMG, but rather Bretonia Special Forces. Anyway, until next time adventurer..
