SPORE, only numbering 5 or so as only a week into the rebirth of this once feared and notorious corporation. Was hungry for action, and after close to half a year of inaction from me, so was I. To our luck there was the influx of Pandemic Legion into Amamake. Soon the space lanes where full of PL ships, Osoggur gate was camped 23/7 by at times with up to 20 super carriers and a few titans to boot.
One night some very old friends again formed fleet together, AtomicBetty, DuPuy, Souvera Corvus, Yoshikawa Eveangelicon, Koshua.. looking back 5 and a half years ago these 5 where the usual suspects patrolling the space lanes in Molden Heath for the once famous MH-SEC security service. We all grew up fighting, Infinitus Odium, Mercenary Coalition, Veritas Immortals and many more...
the old crew started hunting, as we knew not much apart from SmurfsBrigade blobs where in Low sec Amarr space so we hunted Metropolis. Our scout, SPORE member Rolgann in his Rapier jumped into Hadozeko and reported a hostile fleet camping it. After hearing the list of hostile ships, I knew it was pretty even, 6 of us, 7 of them. and they would have to take gate guns.. giving us the +1 to make it even.
Being in a heavy tanked armour Hurricane I volunteered to jump in and pull aggression. As I held cloak and looked at those who where about to die, I formed the plan in my head. The key factor for the enemy was there Scimitar a remote repair ship or Logistics ship, I decided to get Rolgann in his Rapier and DuPuy in his heavy missile Drake to drive him off the field. I declared the plan to the fleet, then de-cloaked and called the Pandemic Legion Hurricane primary.
This is the time of the battle where trust in your comrades comes into effect. I knew my guys had good fits on there ships and would follow my order. Knowing this fight could go either way, all followed me into system and joined battle. No hesitation, pure trust and loyalty.

As the fight progressed a Pandemic region Talos jumped into the frey, knowing this had a week tank but packed a huge punch I called for all to switch from the Hurricane and kill the Talos, it went down like a sack of Potato's. I seeing my armour was cracking, I then called primary on one of the more expensive ship's on field thinking to go for isk efficency if things went bad, next to die was the Pandemic region Sacrilege . By this time DuPuy and Rolagan had done there job and killed the wild card of the battle a pandemic Legion Scimitar.
Though now my Hurricane's hull was cracked and the vaccum of space was ripping my ship to shreds, DuPuys Drake and Rolganns Rapier where able to bring much needed fire power down on the remaining Pandemic ships. Escaping out in my pod, my old mates, whos experience and skill match mine from many years of fighting continued to rip Pandemic Legion to shreds. Only there Absolution Command ship and Rapier where able to escape the field from there original fleet. We only lost my Hurricane..
This is why we Hunt.. for the thrill, for the kill!
