"Fine" one of the men said as they drove them into town "OUT" one of the men yelled as Alex and the other officers got out of the truck, the town was worn down, old and it looked like it had seen alot of fighting over the days. ALex and the others were led to a holding area with armed guards everywhere they were rounded into a cage and locked in as Alex sighed.
The others were let out and given food and drink, The Companion was led to the town hall to see the eldar, led past the starving people and injured as they went

I looked at the people as we walked to see the elder and felt quite sad for them. 'When I get back to my ship I'm getting a whole bunch of credits from my account's and sending these people some help' I thought and looked to the sky once more while thinking of my kids.

the Elder sat in the town hall milling over papers he looked troubled and saddened as he paced the hall "Sir, this woman would like to talk" The guard said as the Elder looked up at her "Yes...come in" he said in a strained voice and went back to looking at his work

I walked into the room and bowed a bit to the elder, I silently wished I had my tea set that i had for introductions when meeting a new client. "Hello, my name is Hayley Riddle" I introduced myself. "Am I correct in assuming that you know of the Drakus? gray-skinned people that come from the sky?" I asked him.

"Drakus" He snapped and slammed his hands on the table "Yes....and your blue skined friends aswell" He said and looked at her "Have you come to take everything we own aswell? i warn you its not much now after the Drakus took every thing" He ranted as he staired at Hayley

"We are not here to do anything of the sort" I replied calmly knowing if I got over emotional that nothing will get done. "The Drakus are kidnapping women to sell them back on their home worlds. Myself and many other women where captured but thankfully those with the blue skin, The Higarens came to help us that were captured. It lead to us crashing on your planet" I informed him hoping he would believe the truth.

"I dont believe you, if we believe every stranger then id have no town left at all" He said and dismissed her plea "When they get here they will be taking you and your friends, they have already taken my daughter and her friends" He said as he paced

"You just proved that I was telling the truth. If they have taken your own women then how much more is it to believe that we where not captured as well?" I asked him trying to keep calm. "Plus I'm sure that if you look at the ship we were in, you will see that we indeed crashed" I added with a sigh. "Not all of us space dwellers are like the Drakus and if you give me the chance I can prove it" I finished.

"If turning you over keeps my people safe then i'll do it" The elder said and looked at the companion "there no reason why i have to help you, if it keeps..." He said as the sound of trucks pulling up sounded, Alex watched as a pair of green skined men got out "Imearians?" Hawkeye asked "Orions..." Alex muttered as she looked at the men before a Drakus got out of the truck and breathed in "Hmmmm profit" he said and smiled before walking inside.

"I'm not here to ask for you to try and help us. All I ask for is to let go of the Higarens that had helped us" I told him before hearing the trucks and having him stop talking. I looked to the door as a Drakus walked in, I straightened my back and used the leaf I still had on me to cover and fan my face.

"Well....well...well" The Drakus said and walked down the steps into the Hall "Busy arent we, ive never seen so many women, almost like a frieghter carrying them crashed near here, Know anything about that?" he asked and smiled "And what is this loverly creature....hmmmm" he asked and stopped in front of Hayley "A Companion, hmmmm worth alot at the markets on Zygear" he said and smiled at the elder "how did one find its way here" he asked and smiled at her

"I had a rendezvous with a client. You wouldn't know where he might be would you?" I replied with a flirtatious air as I fanned my face.

"Oh how loverly" He said with a smile and looked at Hayley as the sounds of the Doors opening rang through the hall "I know that travel to this planet is restricted by the republic because these people have yet to leave the ground, I know That I was expecting a new shipment of labour for Zygear near five hours ago, I know that he had a Companion for me to add to my collection and I know theres a Hiigaran Cruiser orbiting the planet" The new Drakus said and pushed his friend away "Sound fomiliar, you are those Hiigaran officers just traveling through..." He said and smiled

"You do know that Selling registered Companions are illegal in all the worlds" I replied to the first Drakus. "Including the Imperium. Especially because there are so few of us that are willing to contract with you in the first place" I added and continued to listening to them. "It is quite possible that they are heeding a distress call I had sent out when my ladies and I crashed on this lovely planet" I finished.

"Whos going to stop us?" The second Drakus laughed "Slave trading costs alot of money and make many people happy" he continued "The Mighty Republic and the Nobel Sovereignty will do little to stop us, they dont want to go back to fighting us or the Syndicate" He laughed "So, Elder, We will take this one and the girls outside....in exchange....you have another year to ready your Dilithium stocks for us.....plenty of time" He said and laughed as the Elder nodded.
