"Buzz off!" Harlock swatted at the drone stalking him. The droned persisted and Harlock spun around and shot at the drone, scratching the paint work "that's your warning shot" he growled stalking into the engine room, slamming the door scaring Tochiro
"Jesus, Harlock!"
"Sorry, that damn drone is driving me insane"
"it's still on the ship?" Tochiro pulled off his mask to look at his extremely irritated friend
"Yes" He said sharply "these drones are more resilient than I wanted to believe"
"Hmm, can't we just land somewhere, draw it out and strand it?" Tochiro suggested
"Already attempted that"
"Have you considered just giving them what they want?"
"And what is that exactly?" Harlock growled. Tochiro shrugged standing up
"Well I assume they want to shame you, so why not turn the tides? They're obviously broadcasting somewhere meaning people our watching, instead of these people trying to send their message, we can send our own". Harlock blinked
"Tochiro. You are a genius. Has anyone ever told you that?" Tochiro blushed and laughed
"Yeah once or twice" he said to himself as he watched Harlock's cape disappear through the door as he bolted to the bridge of the ship. Holding onto the helm Harlock spun the wheel with increasing vigor, as the Arcadia tilted his crew took up various units. He barked a couple of orders and smiled as the drone flew around with excitement, as if waiting for Harlock to show his reported savagery.

"Sir, the Arcadia's on the move"
"Brilliant" the producer smiled "come on now, Harlock. Time to show the world who you really are. No more mystery"
