As the ship took off I chockered the shipment guard and he fell down before me as another memory attack hit me. It was the girl again….
She lay cuddled under the landing platform of some emergency landing point. She whimpered as a spider crawled over her. She began to sing a song to pass the time, "Darkness comes, I twiddle my thumbs as it encloses me.
A mourning later I awake and place my...my...m...y". The girl lost the words of the song as she heard footsteps coming closer to her. Her insides churned and she whimpered. She looked out from under the platform and saw the shiny black boots of one of the men. There were three of them and they were talking. "I hear that there is a pest problem at the plant." Said one of the men who seemed to be the boss of the other two. "Only a few minor incidents" said the man to his right. "Deaths, twelve deaths" said the other man.
"Well I suggest that you demolish the factory where these INCIDENTS have taken place and make up a story to cover for the missing people's deaths" said the owner as he looked down and saw the girl's fingers clutching the bottom of the platform. "Get to work" he told the men with a smile.
The girl heard the two men leave and thought that all three had left. She pulled herself out from under the platform and was grabbed by the boss. "trespassing is a very large offence, little girl" he said. "What did you hear?" he asked her shaking her a bit.
"Nothing" she muttered.
"Do not lie" the man scolded shaking her more.
"I..I heard something about deaths and demolishing a factory and….. incidents" the girl answered in a frightened voice.
The man smiled and looked at her. "Well come on, We have a demolition to catch.
The girl and the man walked off.
The last thing I saw in the memory was the girl being thrown into a building as the building is being boarded up.
I shake my head as my vision comes to a close and I see the ship again. I lean over and check the man I had fought once before. He is dead. I get up and walk to the front of the ship and find that the men are asleep in cryo freezers. I move to the controls and make a few adjustments before returning to my hiding place to wait for either an alarm or for the ship to dock.
