"Are you Captain <PN>, pilot of the <PSN>?" she asks in a very feminine voice, and you nod. "I'm Sharon Masterton, manager of engineering services here at GLi-tech, and I was wondering if you were prepared to get some parts for us?"

Briefing

"Glad to have you on board," she says with a measured smile. 'We need a shipment of parts for experimental weapons we are working on."

Briefing
We have 10 tons on order and they are currently being held in storage on <DST> in the <DSY> system. We need them to be returned to here by 40 days. If you are successful, we might consider giving you more missions of this type."

"When you walk into the ship outfitting area you quickly spy the dark hair and formal suit of Sharon Masterton as she sits at a table near one of the corners of the large room and you decide to go over and say hello."

Offer
"I'm glad you dropped by," she tells you in a professional tone, "we need someone to do a few final field tests of a weapon before we start selling it to the Federation Navy. The nature of the tests isn't entirely legal, and until you complete the mission you will be under a fair amount of danger so don't say yes if you're a little squeamish."

Briefing

"We like to test all of our weapons in real combat before we start marketing them to anybody," Sharon explains quietly."

Briefing

"So to facilitate this we have offered the captain of the pirate raider '<SN>' a substantial sum of money if he can defeat you in combat. As a part of the deal he has to share with us his sensor logs of the battle, so that we can find out if the weapon performed up to expectations. The same restriction applies to you, but we will be giving you the Polaron Cannon to use against him. "You will find the <SN> in the Naka system waiting for you," she tells you quietly. "Good luck." You find yourself a little stunned at the tactics used by GLi-tech to get battle data on their weapons, but in the end you suppose that a weapons manufacturer wants to be absolutely sure that their weapon will do what they say it will when the crunch time comes.

"I have a very dangerous mission for you," she tells you in a tone that implies that she means business. "We want to look at developing a weapon currently only held by a foreign government. What you will be doing will be highly illegal, and you are likely to be killed if you are caught. Are you in?"

Briefing

"We want to have a look at what the Polaris call the 'Wraith Cannon'," she tells you quietly."

Briefing

"We know it uses Polaron technology, and we want to know a little more about it. So we want you to go to Nil'a Mjolnir in the Mjolnir system and take a few photographs of a Wraith Cannon, and the 'Wraithii' it fires. "If we can get our hands on this technology," she shares with you slyly, "it will be worth billions. So if you make it back here, we are prepared to pay you 500000 credits. Believe me, if you can get past Polaris security and make it back here in one piece, you will have earned it."

You get a few odd looks, but luckily nobody asks you any questions. You walk around and take a few surreptitious snaps of a Wraith Cannon as it is being re-attached to an Arachnid, and take a few quick pictures of a series of the fluorescent purple packets of energy that are called the Wraithii as they are loaded on board as well. Remaining casual you make your way back to your ship and stow away your pictures before heading out into space to try to slip through the Polaris defense net and make your way back to GLi-Tech-nia in the Rimshot system.

"I'm impressed," she congratulates you warmly. "As far as I'm aware you are the first person who has been able to make it through the Polaris defense grid alive. Is there something you're not telling us?" She laughs and you grin. "So where are the photographs?" she asks, becoming more serious, and you head back on board and fish them out and hand them over. She takes a few moments to scan them. "This is exactly what we were after. It is worth every cent we are paying you. "I need to get this to the appropriate people," she tells you, all business again, "but keep an eye out in the ship outfitting area if you want to be the one to test this new weapon when we eventually manufacture it."

"I understand that you two have been working together," states Commander Krane in a business-like tone and both you and Ms. Masterton nod. "Well, Captain <PN>, I want you to work with her again. She has been working closely with the Federation Navy in developing a new type of ship. I'll let her tell you the details." "This is a simple testing mission," Sharon begins smoothly, "except that we are going to be testing the 'RAGE Gunboat' as we call it against you. You will be paid 100000 credits for your efforts, are you interested?"

Refusal

""Oh well," sighs Krane quietly."

Refusal
"I'm not going to say I'm not a little disappointed in you, but I'm sure you have your reasons. I guess we'll have to find someone else instead. "Keep an eye out for me," she finishes, as she turns away, "I may need your services for something else soon..."

"Regardless of this {G"cowboy's" "cowgirl's"} efforts, I believe we have enough preliminary data which shows that the RAGE is a very competent ship in her class so we will start production immediately. I suggest that you teach your 'agent' how to listen to orders." "Don't presume to tell the Bureau anything," murmurs Krane with a dangerously happy smile, "we might take it the wrong way."
