After what had happened, Aria knew that she had to find a crew besides Ishi Sato and she managed to find a few friends of her own to join on. Aria went to her quarters and began swearing after closing her door.

"Shit, I knew that this would happen eventually. But this fucking quick? I hope that those bastards think that my last name is Novak instead of Hunt. I could see it in his body language that something was off. I could see it plain as day. Oh,mama, if only you were here to help. I knew that papa was teaching me how to shoot for a reason. But now, I'm just not so sure."

Braeden was a childhood friend of hers and after she reopened her door and walked out, he asked,"Are you feeling alright Ari?" Aria smiled at his pet name for her and she replied saying." To be fully honest Braeden, no I'm not. Papa had been acting like something was fucking putting him on edge and he really wouldn't tell me what it was till the shit hit the fan." He nodded as he fell into step beside her.

Aside from his twin brother, Erik, there was also a young woman named Tamara who was a hell of a pilot besides Ishi. So they agreed to take the pilot's seat when the other needed to get some sleep while Erik made himself home down in the storage bay and Braeden settled as the ship's doctor.

She was pacing when she asked Ishi,"Why did you stay with Sarreno when you could've stayed with papa Ishi? I mean, I know he has his faults, but has overcome many of them."

He thought about it for several long moments before answering,"Your mother contacted me asking me to leave the general's side because of who he had become and I knew, deep in my heart and soul that I needed to come back around and I did. When Trishka and I met again, I realized why she wanted me to renounce the bastard. She was already pregnant with you and Grayson was the one who had sired you."

She nodded in understanding and said."It's good to have you back with us Ishi. But what would she have me do in this situation? I'm not sure if I should use my maiden name or hers."

Tamara smiled and said."Easy, for now use your mother's maiden name of Novak till we're sure that you aren't the one that sorry bastard is after." She nodded and they went on to do what was needed to be done, which was to get some supplies on board and soon. If they were going to go after Sarreno and rescue her father.

Not really knowing that there were a few bounty hunters going after Aria because of the payment on her head.
