''Hail Xenos!" He clears his throat and then continues"I have heard of your organization and wanted to join for some time now. I will tell you my reasons for joining...if you are willing to listen."He scratches his head and takes a sip of Liberty ale that is placed by his right hand."My family and I lived on planet Denver in Colorado system, my father had a low paying job and little fund income. He saved money for many years to afford a trip for him, my mother and me. When I was 10 the day came and we left for Kusari in a corroded Rhino my father owned. When we finally arrived in Kusari space, we parked our ship to observe the sights of Shikoku and its beautiful nebulae. We watched for hours and then decided to go further in...to New Tokyo. We docked to a trade lane, set our Rhino to autopilot and sat back into our seats. The lane got disrupted and then we saw -them- , a pack of three Hogosha pigs waiting for ships to pass by. They had a foul aura around them that struck cold into my bones and made my hands shiver. They dared to ask for a tax, which my father was unable to pay...after 15 or so minutes...they attacked our Rhino. It was destroyed naturally...but my dear father" he pauses for a moment to take one more sip of the ale '' held it together just so my mother could place me in a escape pod. Only I survived, the police picked me up and deported me back to Liberty space where I lived with my grandfather. I was only ten years old then, but no...I did not forget. I want to make the filthy Kusarians pay! Their families! Everything!"He wipes some sweat from his now drenched face" Forgive me. You now know my reasons, I will do whatever it takes....if you would have me.
