The way he tried to make her talk was too hilarious. Although she seemed like a very serious man, underneath Alyson found he was actually quite the loser. He tried to break the situation down for her, assuming every single possibility that could happen. ‘Alyson’ could throw her out, kill her, she could take the drug business over,.. Hah, if only he knew whom he was dealing with. Though if he knew, this would be a one-way ticket to jail. So better to keep that a secret right now, Alyson figured.
All things aside, the guy was pretty handsome and Alyson haven’t had a date in ages. Slightly shaking the thought of she felt like pinching herself. ”Hello? Are you thinking this through? It’s a bounty hunter. Not a pick nick in the park. Get your act together Al!”
“You do realize I don’t give a single fuck about that planet, right?” Alyson pulled up her eyebrows and looked him directly into the eye. “I couldn’t care less to be fairly honest..” That wasn’t true, many of her high-class clients lived there. And without them she was out of business. Well, she could move to the more populated areas and sell on the street. But that would be as good as being a prostitute.
She sat up again, but pushed herself off the ground this time. It wasn’t a very easy move but her new/fake figure made it look graceful as ever. If he’d seen her get up with her normal body he’d probably laugh till he choked. But the transformation gave her the confidence she needed, so she slowly walked over to the sofa. “Alright, we can get to know each other. But you wouldn’t let a lady sit on the floor now would you?” With pouted lips she dropped herself next to him, and lifted one leg over the other, revealing how skinny she was. Her own behaviour made her feel slightly nauseous. If this were the kind of girl guys liked she would end up being old and alone. Nonetheless she kept up her appearance.
“And, I would love to drink a beer.” With a broad smile on her face she leaned in and whispered: “Kinda hard with these handcuffs on, don’t you think?”
Her flirty behaviour was just a rough guess. She figured it would just take his mind of the mission and once on Aeros it would be an easy escape. There is no way they will be letting a strange ship land on her planet without investigating or alarming her headquarter. After all, the planet was hers.

“He’s on his way here.” David pointed out. A somewhat chubby man stood behind him staring at the computer screen. “I have no idea why Alyson activated a tracking device attached to this ship, but it must be something big.” She other man spoke, making his long bear move along. “You’re right Grunt, it must be some client that is late in payment. Let’s just alert the docking station and sent out a few men.” David got up from the chair and shoved a few guns into his backpack.
Meanwhile, Grunt, one of Alyson’s co-workers was already sending out a highly anonymous text message to the docking station. Everybody working there were colleagues as well, but not nearly as close and trusted.
The hide out from Alyson was left to be alone, but highly secure by the many alarms and locks keeping everything extremely safe. Nobody had ever found the hide out, let alone break into it. That would be a milestone in history, Alyson always said.
Both getting in a different ship loaded with guns and a few armed men, they made their way to the docking station and settled themselves there. It would take another hour before they would reach the planet, but that gave them time to work out a strategy.
