Verde scanned the area hundreds of bounty hunters; even more drug lords. Ninjan’s weren’t common in this part of the universe only for the sole reason that it happened to be far more cold here than in the others; Verde’s suit was self-heated which allowed her to virtually explore any part of space. Walking through the strip she could see huge ships landing in the Citadel’s bay area; hundreds of the paupers on the ground floor were glued to the anti-pressure lock window’s watching as an infamous pirate ship known as the black sands docked in the bay.
“Oh this is bad, this is bad” A local remarked shaking it’s head on the glass. “Why is this bad?” Verde asked knowing the Black Sands were bad news but not understanding why they were here. “If you must know, the Black Sands have set up multiple recruiting stations across the Citadel; they’re preparing for a takeover” The local explained. “This is a human based, station why would they try to take it over? Do they have a problem with the humans?” Verde asked trying to get some information. “Ever since the Citadel stood up, the Black Sun’s admin here on the Citadel has been very vocal about his hatred for humans” The local continued to explain.
“What’s this guy’s name?” Verde asked taking out her Ninjan Plasma shotgun. “Oh- uh-um his-h-his name is Jaeroth Kinlia” the local responded somewhat intimidated. “I’ll go meet with him” she said walking pass him towards the docking bay. “Y-Y-you can’t do it by yourself!” the local screamed in shock. His concern didn’t warrant the Ninjan at all she just continued moving with one goal in mind.
Arriving at the docking bay; she saw almost an army of black sands members taking various positions in the docking bay. She knew the local drug dealers wouldn’t allow this to happen seeing as this now shut off the route for the smuggling imports; bounty hunters would have a hard time getting their bounty; she knew she wouldn’t be the only one handling this incident.
Walking into the docking bay she was quickly halted by a female Altarian (a humanoid like race with beaks and wings) stopped her entry. “Hold it there; you’re not permitted to enter here!” She said, placing her wing on Verde’s chest plate. “I’m here to see Jaeroth Kinlia” she said, forcefully smacking the wing off her chest plate. “Why you!!!” the bird like creature hissed only to be halted by Jaeroth himself.
“What do ya want!” Jaeroth snapped folding his huge arms in the process. “You’re a Serpenine; you’re a bit too far from Hilden” The Ninjan remarked showing off her extensive knowledge on the Universe. Hilden was a barren planet usually mined for Eco, which the Ninjans used to manufacture the eco-spehere.
“You know soo much you little punk in armor; you have no business here” he snapped slithering around only to have the barren of Verde’s Ninjan shotgun in the back of his head. “Oh?” he said turning his snake-like body around to face the armored Ninjan again.
“Why do you have it out against the humans?” she said, placing her hand on the trigger. “Have you not seen the news that comes from these humans? They kill each other and will do nothing but plunge the galaxy into chaos”
Verde couldn’t argue with that but it was not her place to stop anyone’s space exploration. “Why does it matter to you…Ninjan?” The Serpenine responded using his tongue to absorb the smell of her Ninjan blood. “Not bad, but I’m looking into why the human colonies are being attacked, you know anything about it?”
The snake-like creature spun around smacking the Ninjan with his tail and then quickly burrowed underground. “Eh…I’ll take that as a yes” she said, rolling out of the way of the Black Sands fire; taking cover behind a crate she laughed a bit a how she under-estimated the Black Sun’s numbers.
