During routine gravitometric scans of the area around Aiur, the Lexell Kotov received a massive new ping. One shaped suspiciously like a very large battleship.

The scanning operator turns around in his chair and clears his throat to gain the Captain's attention. "Sir, we're registering a new, large ship on our g'metrics. Status has already been transmitted across safe channels, but advisory is requested."

The Captain of the Kotov bit his lip, just softly enough to not draw blood. "Try and match up the signature with any in our database."

The scan operator nodded quickly and turned back to his holographics, conducting a lightning-fast search through all matches. "Sir, it appears to be unregistered within the Aneph database. Reaching out to UAC and SSA Coalition databases now."

The bridge seemed to hold its breath during those few seconds before the operator turned again, his expression grim. "It's the Sith mega ship, sir. The Bogan."

The Captain took in a deep breath, then steepled his fingers together. "Relay to FLTCOM." He paused briefly. "And, as quietly as you can, prepare the interdiction device and the railgun. If that... monstrosity... figures out we're here, I don't want to be unprepared."

The officer at the weapons terminal responsible for interdiction and the officer at the projectile weaponry terminal both began their respective processes of stealthily preparing the Kotov's main guns.
