Things were still going well. Proculus was now in a rifter and he was buzzing around the local systems. I was in my rupture and I had also spied a Hawk and the same raptor from a few hours ago. This would be interesting I think.
I used the scanner and figured out that Proculus was around the station and was probably docking. A friend in the station informed me that he had docked. Arriving at the station I loitered there thinking what to do. I hate camping stations. Absolutely brain-cell killing.
AS I was about to turn the cruiser around, Proculus undocked and locked me straight away. Grinning fiercely, I locked him back and let him take the first shot. I don't know why I let him fire at me first as Proculus was already a -9.1 security rated pirate and KOS anywhere. Oh well.
I snagged him with the webber and let the drones fly. Then Buschi in his hawk undocked and Nebo, in his raptor screamed in from an outlying system.
Ah. Trouble for me perhaps?
I concentrated on the rifter but the three way pounding was a getting a bit too much and my shields had long gone. Rai Deo arrived and tried to help me but he made the mistake of firing on one of the three targets attacking me who was NOT criminally flagged. The sentry guns around the station detected the illegal weapon discharge, spun into life and proceeded to hit poor Rai Deo and his stabber. He had to leave, filling the local comms channel with very colourful expletives at his own poor choice of target acquistion.
I had the nosferatu and split them between the rifter and the hawk attacking me and also split my weapons' fire between the two. No need for overkill but the raptor was peppering me from afar and I had to recall my drones as even these speedy killing machines had no hope in catching the caldari interceptor. My shields were gone and not even recharging and I was hovering around 35% armour but luckily for me, holding.
My angry drones buzzed back and swarmed around the rifter and dismantled it - obviously my nosferatu had done enough to destroy Proculus' capacitor. Concord killmail zipped into my intray:

However, once the rifter went pop I switched my full attention to the Hawk. A lucky shot cut the Hawk in half sending both pieces spinning in opposite directions. Concord zipped a confirmation of the kill to me. How come they know so quick?

Feeling very happy I recalled my drones and tried my luck against the Raptor. No way. I decided that the victory was mine and with 'gf' in local; I jumped out to a safespot. Local was getting hot and Proculus came back again but this time, another local corp allied with FFAT had appeared. I decided that they probably wanted revenge so thought that it was best we leave for Eifer. Proculus could not stay still and came into Eifer too so me and a few others decided to try and track him down. We had no luck and Eifer was also filling up.
A few jumps later and oooopss.....
