Starbound: A Space Odyssey 45 The Floran Colony 1

"Argh..." A Floran groaned in pain after being shot right in the chest by a rifle. The male Floran fell on a pool of his own green blood.

"That's the last one..." The soldier who shot down the Floran casually said while reloading the gun. "Sector clear." He said in his PIPS' radio.

"Sector clear."

"Sector clear, as well."

"All finished around here."

The soldier received the answer from all the other soldiers.

"All right everyone, good job!" The soldier heard a voice talking in the radio, "Since it is done, blaze the whole colony to the ground and come meet up at the point B."

"Yes, sir!" Every soldier acknowledged their orders.

The soldier turned around and saw that the members of his squad had already stored their weapons and were carrying flamethrowers.

All the soldiers were wearing armors that completely hid their body, it was painted as forest camouflage, and in their chest had a black star painted.

Their armor was made of Tungsten, Tier 2, and their weapons were made of t.i.tanium, Tier 3.

The soldier did as he was told and set a few of the gra.s.s huts on fire. From time to time he would hear some shrieks coming from Florans that weren't dead, but now were being burnt alive.

He just casually glance at the Florans trying to put out the flame off their body.

He took the rifle from his Inventory and shot them, one by one, dealing the finis.h.i.+ng blow.

After the soldiers burned the whole colony, they walked back to the point B.

There they were able to see the Floran kids they captured from the colony they just set on fire.

There were rows and rows of cages which had 3 or more Floran kids.

Most of the kids were covered in injuries from sword slashes and bullet holes, but they were still alive since none of the injuries were fatal.

"Looks like we are going to have a bonus..." The soldier unconcernedly said while looking at those helpless kids they just captured.

"h.e.l.l yeah!" Another soldier, a burly one said by the side of the previous soldier. "We captured more than 90 this time." The burly soldier took off his helmet and revealed a human face. He grinned from ear to ear. "Even though we had to kill more than 10 of them to make them obedient, we still have a lot of them. Hehehehe... The Miniknog is going to pay us very handsomely."

"Shut up..." The previous soldier said. "You know very well that most of our bonus is going to end up in the hands of that blue Novakid that gave us the coordinates for this place."

The Human soldier's smile disappeared. "Why don't we... Deal with him and take the money...?" He said filled with dissatisfaction.

"Are you mad?" The other soldier said while eyeing the Human soldier. "That guy is from our biggest business partner, the Extremist Reef Faction. If you do something to him and the Faction stop making deals with the Black Star Syndicate, do you know what the boss is going to do with you?"

The Human soldier trembled when he heard that the boss would personally deal with him. "Yeah... You are right..." He resigned the thought of dealing with the Novakid, but he was still filled with dissatisfaction.

The other soldier saw that and sighed. "I know very well that you would take the money and go around brothels to have fun. You know what... Go take a look in our prisoners take one of your likings and have... Fun with it. I don't think the Miniknog would care about losing a single lab rat such as this."

"Are you sure?" The Human soldier's eyes glinted. Just imagine the pleasure of a virgin, light green Floran was able to make his little guy excitedly stand up.

"Yes..." The soldier was disgusted at the Human soldier's behavior, but they were companions, so he had to make sure to maintain at least a proper friends.h.i.+p. With that being said he didn't try to create deeper bound with him, but he didn't completely shove him to the side, even though he was disgusted by the Human's fetishes of raping young, virgin females.

"Hehehe..." The Human soldier fiercely glanced at the cages.

The Florans cowered after seeing the blazing gaze of the soldier on them.

"Hey! Don't damage the goods." A voice loudly said from behind the two soldiers.

"Who the fuc-" The Human soldier was about to shout at the person that dared to interfere in his joyous moment, but when he saw who said that to him, all he could do was to swallow his words and stare at the man with eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

"What!?" The blue Novakid with a cross symbol as his brand, 'face', asked the dissatisfied soldier. "Have anything to say to me?" He threatened.

"No... Sir..." The soldier could only swallow his pride and salute the Novakid.

"Good!" The Novakid smirked. "The little guys are for the Miniknog. I can't allow you to have fun with them, but he do have captured a few adult Florans from the other colony... You can choose one of them and do whatever you want with it."

The Human soldier was overjoyed. "Really!?" Even though it wasn't as good as little virgins, it was better than nothing. The Human soldier started to fawn over the Novakid, "Oh great captain Oscar..."

The other soldier just rolled his eyes over the Human's shamelessness.

Oscar chuckled at the soldier's behavior. "Go ahead, they are the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p SBS1776 and SBS1777. Just remember to deal with the aftermath yourself."

"Don't worry boss!" The soldier said excitedly. "After I'm done I with it, I will kill and burn the evidence." The soldier saluted and happily went inside the temporary concrete outpost they had on the planet.

"Black Star Syndicate... What a bunch of d.i.c.kheads..." Oscar muttered while looking at the retreating Human soldier. He looked at the side and saw that there was another soldier there. "You, command the squad 5, 6 and 8 to take the cages to the temporary outpost, the Miniknog is going to arrive in one week."

"Yes, sir!" The soldier saluted and walked away.

Oscar nonchalantly looked at the caged kids and then walked away as well.

[Lenny...] He suddenly thought of his old friend. [Don't worry, after I'm done here, I'll personally hunt you down and kill you.] His eyes glinted with a vicious and dangerous light.
