Message In A Bottle
Took the ship out for a spin- maintenance didn't do too bad a job with it- and the long-range sensors picked up an automated distress beacon, weak encryption. Some sort of unspecified technical malfunction, that turned into an engine failure. They're running out of power, and it's bad enough that they don't care who knows it.
It's inside my jump range; If I leave now, I should be able to get to their ship before they go completely dark, unless Pirates pick up the message and manage to get there first. Assuming, of course, that there's a ship at all, and it's not a Pirate trap designed to lure a Hunter into a heavily armed frigate.
Either way, I might get paid today.
