| Upon entering the Izar Beta system, the Aurora received a communication on an encrypted channel very similar to the signal they traced back from The Aurora's systems after the initial purge. The signal contained a call for help from "friendly assets", indicating an imminent attack. Of further note was, that the signal contained a set of coordinates, which due to light lag could not know of the Auroras entry into the system by the time the message arrived. \\ | Upon entering the Izar Beta system, the Aurora received a communication on an encrypted channel very similar to the signal they traced back from The Aurora's systems after the initial purge.

| The Company docked the [[battletech:aurora|Aurora]] to the docking collar of the [[battletech:minerva|Minerva]] and set course into the fringes of the system on the lookout for any workable Pirate Jump Point, with the approaching Assault DropShip in hot pursuit. [[battletech:sipsik|Sipsik]] and [[battletech:metsavana|Metsavana]] managed to disable the pursuing DropShip using a hotwired capital class torpedo, that they manually shoved out of the airlock and pointed at the pursuers. The torpedo did not do catastrophic damage, but persuaded the pursuers to keep enough of a distance for the Minerva to find a workable Jump Point and leave the system. \\ | The Company docked the [[battletech:aurora|Aurora]] to the docking collar of the [[battletech:minerva|Minerva]] and set course into the fringes of the system on the lookout for any workable Pirate Jump Point, with the approaching Assault DropShip in hot pursuit.

| The coordinates for the next jump were procured by [[battletech:kratt|Kratt]] from the local ComStar business net. To no surprise they lead off the beaten starmap into a system with a Pirate presence. \\ | The coordinates for the next jump were procured by [[battletech:kratt|Kratt]] from the local ComStar business net.

| The system consisted of a red dwarf star and 2 planetoids, the first of which had an orbiting space station and a docked Jolly Roger class WarShio. Both factions postured and threatened each other, but no battle ensued. After 7 days of recharge time, the [[battletech:minerva|Minerva]] jumped back to Izar. \\ | The system consisted of a red dwarf star and 2 planetoids, the first of which had an orbiting space station and a docked Jolly Roger class WarShip.

| The Local Government, faced with the prospect of potentially facing down the guns of a working WarShip encouraged the Company to move on and even provided a lead, that the Ministry of Archeology of the Capellan Confederation was looking for a mercenary unit with FTL capability in the Alexandria system. | The Local Government, faced with the prospect of potentially having to face down the guns of a working WarShip encouraged the Company to move on and even provided a lead, that the Ministry of Archeology of the Capellan Confederation was looking for a mercenary unit with FTL capability in the Alexandria system. \\ |
| | Before leaving the fuel tanks of the [[battletech:minerva|Minerva]] were refilled, a second pilot - [[battletech:pinky|Pinky]] was hired and 2 additional Mechwarriors were added to the roster to bolster the lines of the Company - [[battletech:grumpy|Grumpy]] and [[battletech:lotus|Lotus]]. |
