Other people? so what , just another person who might take your life or your money one day. Having followed this philosophy from a young age he had found it necessary to hide from the law, something he soon found he was quite good at.
Like all the other flotsam in Sirius he floated inexorably towards the junker bases, where he found casual work as a jack of all trades, smuggling and picking up abandoned ships.
One day a report came in. A junker had spotted the outline of a huge vessel, floating abandoned in the clouds of sigma 13. He was unable to reach it due to Wild vessels in the area, so sold the location to the highest bidder. Leigh took a gamble.
With the location on the vessel set in his navmap, he set of into the clouds. The Wild appeared to have moved on, and soon the enormous ship loomed into view. He scanned the vessel. To his surprise the ship showed 3000 life signs on board, and all systems operational. Approaching slowly, he examined the ship and soon found the cause of the problem: The cockpit was..... missing, showing all the signs of torpedo impact.
Donning his EVA suit, Leigh moved through the cloud into the stranded ship. The cockpit was a mess, but he was able to find a metal plaque screwed to the wall:
Captain Summers
-TTR-1130 Series Pilgrim Liner-
"Hmm" he thought, "Captain...." . Still thinking he slowly worked to get the ships systems online.
A few days later, success!. The ships consoles glowed with life. He drew up the ships manifest:
Cargo : Slaves
Destination: Malta, Omicron Alpha
"Jackpot! Well now, what to do..." he said out loud
The engines powered up. And the ship disappeared into the distance.
A few days later, a ship appeared in orbit around Planet Malta in Omicron Alpha. A transmission was sent to the docking master.
"This is Captain! Leigh Summers with a shipment of Slaves. Requesting permission to dock..."
