After a chase and battle, in which the ''Bellerophon'' managed to dodge a MAC round using excellent tactics, the ''Gorgon'' was contacted by the ''Bellerophon'', renamed the ''Bellicose''. A short exchange of taunting messages followed, and then Cole let the ''Bellicose'' escape. After laying traps in five systems over a course of three months, Cole had yet to find the captured ship. Several months later, Cole was married to [[Lyrenne Castilla]], who was also pregnant. | ||
In June of [[2503]], eight months after Cole's marriage to Castilla, Admiral [[Harold Stanforth]] sent Cole a transmission telling him that ONI uncovered the civilian identity of the captain of the ''Bellicose'' - Lyrenne Castilla, spying on Cole. Cole went to confirm this, and found that Castilla had robbed him of everything, leaving only a printout of the exchange they had between the ''Bellicose'' and ''Gorgon''. In January of the next year, four destroyers engaged the ''Bellicose'' in the Theta Ursae Majoris system, and reported that the ship was caught in the gravitational pull of the gas giant, and destroyed. | In June of [[2503]], eight months after Cole's marriage to Castilla, Admiral [[Harold Stanforth]] sent Cole a transmission telling him that ONI uncovered the civilian identity of the captain of the ''Bellicose'' - Lyrenne Castilla, spying on Cole.
