FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS.

I am the lone survivor of the "Black Watch", search and destroy unit.
We were on a routine mission against the Chirichan Clan when my ship went down with systems failure. The rest of my wing went in, but those Chirichan bastards were waiting for them. My whole unit was wiped out, I should have been there with them.
Now I've got me a score to settle and I need some backup for another unsanctioned mission. If you're interested meet me at Nav Point #70, for more detailed instructions.
Pack some heat because this one is gonna get hot.

TO: SER LEV ARRIS

Hey, nice work soldier I can see with that attitude we're gonna get along just fine. Anyway, I promised you the rundown so here it is. The Chirichan clan are expecting one of their deep space recon units to return, these are the same sons'o'bitches that wiped out my unit. There's gonna be a big celebration for their returning heroes, and I want to crash their party.

Basically we move into Nav #64 and clear out their back markers at the System Jump Point. We jump through to Nav #59 and take out whatever they got left on guard. Then, onto Nav #154 to take out their perimeter defence around the Draknor Station.

Well soldier, move into Nav point #64, if you're man enough.

Fly into Nav Point #64 and clear out Chirichan back markers.

Go through System Jump to Nav Point #59 and take out the jump guards.

Finally, fly into Nav Point #154 at the perimeter of the Draknor pirate station and take out the pirates there.

FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS God damn it, that was a hell of a display soldier! But this is as far as you go, I've got me an old score to settle with a couple of Chirichan cruisers and a shit load of escort fighters at the Draknor Station. I'm gonna get in there and fire a couple of caps in their asses. I can't ask you to follow me in there soldier, its damn likely I won't be coming out alive. That's an order soldier, I don't want you following me in there. Bug out now, and when you land you'll receive your payment.

FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS Going AWOL huh! When I finish with these clowns I'm comin' for you. Shit in your pants, Cowardly little puke!!

FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS I thought I gave you an order, soldier. Didn't want to miss out on all that fun, huh! I think I've got a problem Lev, my life support system is damaged and I don't think I've much longer. Looks like I'll need one last favour, when we get to Nav Point #154, I'll drop a pod, I want you to take it to a planet, or a station. Just drop it in at Uni-Freight, I got a kid on Anhur, a few loose ends, you know how it is, anyway its been a real pleasure flying with you soldier. Go on I'll follow you there, I don't want these bastards to see me go up outside their base.

FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS Thanks for the help out there soldier, you will receive full payment. You can be my wing man anytime.

<<< TRANSMISSION RECEIVED FROM POD >>>> FROM: COLONEL SLADE "TEX" CARVER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS I've got to type this message out quickly, to get it in the pod in time. Cheers buddy, just drop the pod in at Uni-Freight. Before you do though, my regimental colours are in there I want you to have them. Oh yeah!!, I nearly forgot the pod also contains an extra CR 2000 on top of what we agreed.

FROM: COLONEL BRETT STRYKER, CIS SPECIAL OPS. TO: SER LEV ARRIS So Ser Arris, you met our Colonel Carver, the best damn space marine we ever had. I'm sure he died well. God damn hero. We got a long range transmission from him, just before he signed out. He authorised us to pay you a total of CR 9000, for assisting him on his final mission.
