SPEED 2 - Off Home Planet

" All is set. You do your part, we do ours." Kabir said to Scooter. The metal door disappeared and out into this vast foyer with a big hole guarded with rails, where we are now wasn't the last floor, more sections went deep down the hole.
Two gaurds joined behind us as we took a left into one door out of many. Space trains hovered up and down the hole. This place was enormous. We went into a hall, behold, special guards were lined up on each side of the hall, and an assembly of more guards situated at the other end of the room. We stopped at the front of the assembly of gaurds. Mr Scooter had gone out of the room, en route the control room.
Sounds of sharp strides resounded from behind the guards as the assembly marches into a formation to let their leader through. Here he came, gallant, towered above us and three meters from us, his definition of a safe distance,I scoffed. In a stentorian tone, the dark skinned man said:
" You're welcome to my abode, Zabick. I am Imperial General Mbaku."
I began to wonder how such person with this beautiful brown eyes became a dictator. Well, if he misbehaves today, I'm taking his eyes home. It's a promise. Kabir never took his gaze off him, I bet he was calculating Mbaku's next order. 'Kill them.'
He gestured us to a table with his left hand, and held his black eon gun in his right.
" We do not sit at a table with a man who took something from us. Family. What we don't play with." Kabir made clear. "We don't trade words with...criminals."
" Well, not entirely, I just saved a planet on the outskirts of my galaxy from extinction, so, not entirely, once again." Mbaku announced.
" You might have to restructure those words again. You could say you kidnapped the denizens of that planet, and you're intending to put them through forced labor." I suggested, letting him know what we are here for. " We're sorry for any inconvenience my gaurds might have caused you, we're deeply sorry and uh..what would you love to-
" Where are they?!" I demanded, interrupting whatever noise he wants to make.
" You're a noise maker." Kabir added.
" Alright, we do have to take things bit by bit. I have your people. Healthy, also, and they seem to take a liking to my planet, especially the one who loves...gadgety toys." Mbaku spouted.
" What do you want, numbskull?" Kabir hit the nail on the head as Mbaku's expression went from the silly smile to a straight face, it was time for business.
