Mythicon learns not to shoot at ninjas

Hello all, my Eve name is Khalia Nestune, and you may have seen me mentioned in some of Paul's earlier posts. Paul has invited me to contribute some occasional stories of loot, tears and gank to My Loot, Your Tears.

The following is the story of my first successful bait of a mission runner and subsequent gank and sweet, sweet tears. I have usually provided support to our Ninja-fleets up until now, so a solo gank was a nice milestone for me. =)

I've been salvaging in a different area than usual, due to the war Suddenly Ninjas has been engaged in. Today's attempts at grief had so far been unsuccessful, but the salvage good: A pristine Amarr faction wreck field had at least 15m in tags. Yum.

My next scan hit is a Drake, and I warp to it in my scanship to check it out... mission runner in first room, just starting - no wrecks yet. I check the pilot.. two months old! Visions of loot->agro->pwnage flash through my head. I had just fitted a Prophecy for exactly that kind of thing. So I go get my salvager Vigil and camp outside the gate to watch for wrecks on d-scanner, figuring I'll go in and grab stuff when he has stuff to grab.

Unfortunately it looks like he's salvaging as he goes, so I warp in and hope to grab something before he can get all the loot. I end up grabbing agro on the 10+ frigate serpentis rats and drop them on top of his head, then warp out and return. He's forced to fire on them, so I start grabbing loot. He locks me... I wait... YES! He's fired on me with his drones.

He stops to drop a tear in local:

Mythicon > Khalia Nestune is nothing but a theif watch for him in your missions
Khalia Nestune > =)

I bug out, grab the gank Prophecy, and return. By this time he's finished with the rats and working on the last wreck. I burn at him, but it's 70km and I'm not hopeful; he has plenty of time to align and warp out. I'm almost within disruptor range when ... he goes through the next gate.

Ok, I think. This is awesome. He just took all of the next room of agro for me, and I have 5 minutes left on the timer. I get to the gate about 15 seconds later, warp through, and lay into him with scram, web, neut and lasers.  I run through shield rapidly, and into armor as his shields are steadily falling. A small tear in local again:

Mythicon > and a chicken shit he is fighting me while i am in a mission

I've only about 25% armor left and starting to sweat, when I break his shield tank. His armor takes another minute to fall, and now I'm really sweating because I'm about to go into hull! He goes into hull and 3 seconds later, kaboom. I grab his drops, and go dock up to repair.

And the tears in local:

Khalia Nestune > pwned.
Mythicon > you are the worst kind i chicken shit wont fight me out in real space
Mythicon > i had 10 ships hitting me
Mythicon > i hate chicken shit fighters
Khalia Nestune > thanks for the loot and modules!
Khalia Nestune > oh and some salvage too, nice
Mythicon > Khalia Nestune just killed me in a Mission the chicken shit waited til i had 10 ships hitting me to even attemt the fight
Khalia Nestune > actually, you warped into the next room before I reached you
Khalia Nestune > thanks for taking all the agro
Khalia Nestune > =)
Mythicon > yea Chicken Shit you are a bad ass
Khalia Nestune > sorry, was that drake expensive?
Khalia Nestune > maybe next time you won't shoot at people in your missions ;)
Mythicon > not really all my shit came from missions
Mythicon > yea my mission you where trying to loot dumb ass
Khalia Nestune > and see, you could have just ignored me
Khalia Nestune > and saved yourself a drake
Brothr > so myth u shot at khal and concord shot u down???
Mythicon > na next time i see you i will just wait and kill you easy enough
Khalia Nestune > Yes, obviously so easy ;)
Mythicon > No he killed my in my mission while i had aggro
Mythicon > No Concord because he was looting my mission
Brothr > oh ic
Mythicon > NO he was Looting
Khalia Nestune > Myth-tard doesn't realize that other people have bigger ships ;)
Mythicon > He is nother but a Petty Thief
Khalia Nestune > Don't shoot Ninjas! We bite back.
Khalia Nestune > Sir, I am an EXCEPTIONAL thief.
Mythicon > if i didn't have all aggro you would have lost your ships
RANIDEKI > hahaha
Mythicon > no Petty can't even do your own missions
Khalia Nestune > I wonder if anyone got the movie reference
Khalia Nestune > and thank you for taking that agro! I've always relied on the kindness... wait, the stupidity.... of mission runners
Mythicon > don't worry hope you like sitting in station for al while
Khalia Nestune > why would I do that?
Khalia Nestune > heh he logged

It gets better. I'm recounting this story a short while later to another Ninja, by name of Pyth2. By pure luck, Pyth2 has scanned down Mythicon who is back at work on the same mission! So we both show up in salvage frigates and proceed to salvage and loot right under Mythicon's nose while he finishes off the rats. Apparently he has learned, because he never even targets us.

The tears in local got epic when one of our War Targets tried to cash in and use Mythicon to locate us:

Khalia Nestune > thanks for tanking that for us, Myth
Khalia Nestune > oh and shooting the rats too
Mythicon > little thief
Khalia Nestune > I love you too
Pyth2 > <3
Pyth2 > That will be 50 000 ISK Myth, for intersteller waste cleanup
Pyth2 > To both myself, and khalia
Khalia Nestune > Yeah, stop leaving your wrecks around
Mythicon > Pyth2 Khalia Nestune these two
Khalia Nestune > making lag
Pyth2 > This product or service brought to you by suddenly Ninjas
Pyth2 > Yoink!
Khalia Nestune > Your tears fuel our ships
Khalia Nestune > And I'm good for a while now
Pyth2 > I use them to clean my windsheild. Nothing cleans it like beartears
Johncrab > nice one blocking me Myth, shows you how you should be nice to people. those 2 are wt's to me, you would have fleeted me up and i would have nailed them. your loss
Pyth2 > Hi johncrab!
Pyth2 > How you doing mate?
Johncrab > hate stupid people
Khalia Nestune > ROFL
Khalia Nestune > omg lol
Pyth2 > He really was a dumb one, lost a drake to khalia
Pyth2 > Came back in another drake, so broke ass he couldn't even afford drones
Pyth2 > I almost -almost- pitied him enough to let him have some loot.
Johncrab > lol

It was a good day to be a Ninja.
