Horse hockey! These eight-eyed chitinous monstrosities are responsible for the attacks on Ganymede and the Mars colony, as well as the destruction of Babylon 1, 2, 3, and 4! Not to mention the infiltration of key Earth Alliance personnel and the corruption of our Pure Human Essense. What more evidence do we need?
The Shoshone is not about to allow these alien monsters to sail into the middle of our fleet -- do any of you remember the Spanish Armada? If you're ready to strike the flag at this point, well, I guess we know one ship that's been infiltrated!
As for me, I stand between the Clarkness and the bright.

Shoshone out!
