(Well, if one of the members of parliament was on a ship and pirates attacked there'd be international search parties and a huge armada of ships looking for them... So why not cut to the chase and reveal where we are so that someone can come to the rescue like... Perhaps the defence force of the elven empire that we're currently in...)

Suddenly, a very large fleet arrives not too far from the battle. They have the markings of elven ships. The fleet consists of: 3 carriers (with space for 300 fighters each), 5 capital ships, 100 battleships, 150 cruisers, 300 destroyers and 900 corvettes. This is the home front, and if you think you can just kidnap someone you've got the wrong idea.

(In my mind, the SOS signal would have a very simple breakdown of events like SOS - malfunction SOS - pirates and so on. And they would see just how many ships there are from their deep space radars and so on and then send the defence forces to help.)
