"Leave us."  The others were about to protest, but the glares Giantprick shot them apparently shut them up.  Moving past her, they looked at her.  Even now, with most of her body on display, they didn't have the usual perverted thoughts of her.  When they all left, the door closed, and locked behind them.  "Unlike in most situations, the Pirate Queen and the Syndicate on this planet havn't been at war.  We each control our territories, and thanks to the efforts of leadership on both sides, we've found a mutually beneficial cooperation towards our own goals.  Bluntly put, we didn't get in their way, they didn't get in ours.  We control Doras, they control Cyodine City.  At least, thats the way it was.  A few days ago things changed, and not for the better."<br/><br/>Pulling out a remote, a view screen dropped down, as he pressed a few buttons, and a picture went up.  It was a news report of several explosions, and fire fight in Achris Beta, as the news report went on, it explained that the Syndicate had been implicated in a raid on a known Pirate Queen research center, and had ended up causing a lot of collateral damage in the process.  "I didn't order that.  But the Zax, they don't usually take someone of my position's word at face value.  Truth be told, it wasn't even our men.  Likely just some poor idiots pulled off the street, armed, and thrown at the building before a pro went in and blew it up.  But, that Captain Krank didn't believe me, and has put out hits on all my guys.  Its been pure anarchy for days now, and I don't like anarchy."<br/><br/>Sighing, he shrugged.  "So, i'm left with few options.  I need to find out just who really did this, or I need to have Krank taken care of.  I'd prefer the former, and might even be willing to offer up a bonus, but i'd settle for not having a target on my head.  I need this taken care of before the security forces in Claron finally step in, or I get killed."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
