G-Wing is not mine.

"Young lady, may I speak to you for a minute?"

The old man didn't look particularly threatening upon first glance. Upon second glance she wondered weather it was smarter to run and scream or just run. Mechanical arm, some odd type of glasses that if possible looked like they had been partly absorbed into his face and a black car behind him with the door open. Never talk to strangers.

"It will only take a minute and you might get something out of it."

Stick and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me. She shrugged and stepped towards the car. Mechanical arms might though.

"It's actually a business proposition."

Sold! She ducked into the back seat of the car.

She listened with amused interest as the old man, who's introduced himself as Doctor J. Doctor of what psychology? Gave her a very thorough history lesson on the governmental and diplomatic status of the colonies and the earth sphere. Who calls it the Earth SPHERE? It was a very interesting story, full of good leaders, evil assassins, evil plotters, evil generals, evil armies, good doctors, and evil organizations. All in all, all it was missing were the dragons. She told him as much and he chuckled, seeming to know something. Weirdo.

"Now .."

"My name is Evane."

"Now Ahvane."

"Evane."

"Eevane, dose it sound to you like there is more good or more evil?"

What a stupid question. "More evil."

"Yes, there is. Would you like to help even the odds?"

Odds are never even! Is two ever three? "Okay."

"I could teach you to help the good side, to help free the colonies."

Probably more interesting than wandering. "Okay."

He grinned. "Great, we'll get started right away."
