Trouble is what else am I going do.

Eight Months Ago
Planet Leeds
Refugee Camp LD.7889.Gamma


Dre Farren stood on the loading ramp of the ship, watching the explosions in the distance. The camp itself was a mess fifty thousand people starving, deceased, frightened and all hopping for a way off world. The soldiers on the ground, not ten foot away from him struggling with the sheer mass of people trying to push there way through begging with him and them to be let and onboard. Why the hell did the Captain sign up for this. He did hear the footsteps coming down the ramp.

They are getting closer, Web better hurry up with that last batch. Last thing we need is to be taking off with those things falling on our heads

Sehect stood gazing at the horizon, his eyes glazed as they always were these days.

The armed forces have grounded all outgoing flight until they repel the Kusari bombers. So it wont really matter if he takes his time

The smirk on Sehects face told Dre otherwise. He had to ask, almost at once wishing he hadnt.

Gilmore? Oh forget I asked, should off known it was him when you mentioned the relief effort, got to help he poor civilians, dont worry lads well make a tidy profit too

The sarcasm in his voice didnt even make Sehect flinch. He just stood there grinning.

Well you know as much about the man as I do, as in, he says we do.

Dres memory got the better of him, he remembered the first time he met Gilmore and it made him shudder. His knee never did quite work the way it was meant to since.

Never thought he was the caring type, what the hell is his interest in the people of Leeds, huh? What he getting from this?

I dont think he is the caring type. Hes only interested in one man, one Dr Miller; he should be with the last lot, if Web would hurry up. Go up to the cockpit and make sure Dex has this flying scrap heap ready; I want to leave as soon as he gets back.

Dex know hes going to be dodging incoming?

He knows; just make sure he doesnt chicken out better to be a moving target than a sitting duck

Dre shuffled of in to the cargo bay limping slightly more than he was ten minutes ago. Frak he thought the ships gonna be blown to bits and I am gonna be sucked into the fraking void!
