On the evening of Wednesday 12th November 3300, I was happily going about my business, trading in the I Bootes system, when I was suddenly hauled out of supercruise and savagely attacked by a certain Commander Pinkman (I'm reasonably certain this was his name, although I think I may be still suffering from shock). I hardly had time to react, and my Cobra mkIII was in pieces around me.
The main problem with this was that, a rookie mistake I agree, I had practically all my money invested in the cargo that I was carrying. (Cuddly bears for refugee orphans in Chango Dock that had sought comfort and solace from the war in Eranin - Although I feel Commander Pinkman has no heart to be affected by this).
It was not only devastating to the aforementioned orphans, but also to my bank balance. For the first time in my career, I had to secure a loan, to ensure the continuation of my business, and the philanthropic actions that this allows me to pursue.
The loan allowed me to acquire the same Cobra and loadout, and the following day I trucked for a couple of hours to return myself to 130,000cr. I had decided to call it a day (night, or whatever it is in space) and went to park my new shiny Cobra at I Bootes. Only a few Mm from Chango Dock, and I heard the familiar sound of being interdicted. I tried to fight this interdiction, but his grasp was too strong and once again I was staring down the barrels of a certain Commander Pinkman. (I am beginning to think this is personal) This time however, I was prepared for what to expect. As soon as he was in my sights I opened up with everything at my disposal. (Although, I'm not certain the mining laser was of much benefit).
Whatever I had done had clearly scared Commander Pinkman as he turned an fled. I was hoping to teach him a little lesson, but he had hyperspaced out of the area before he took too much damage.
The reason for this post is that I do not know how to repay the loan. Could a kindly commander advise how this is done? (Not you Pinkman!)
