"This is very important Dirk, my research shows that this academy is the place we have been searching for. I need you to befriend the girl, she will lead us to its hidden location. We can deal a vital blow to their organization. Keep in constant communication, and don't do anything until my say so."
Dirk chuckled derisively, she lectures me about staying in communication. Carrying a simple duffel bag, Dirk almost felt naked without his assortment of weapons. Surveying the passenger cabin, he located the girl sitting alone. He approached, her face was still filthy and she smelt strongly of sweat. He has to befriend this? A vision of holding her down and scrubbing the urchin with soap and antiseptic was the only way to make this six day trip tolerable. He put on his most charming visage, "hi, is this seat taken?"
"Listen asshole I have no interest in a boyfriend, sit wherever the fuck you want, just don't bother me"
Well this is going to be a long fucking trip, he thought.

Was I too harsh? I mean he was just trying to be polite. He might be a little too full of himself, better to put him in his place early. Surprisingly he didn't run, maybe he is used to being in a subservient role, a mama's boy. He quickly fell asleep a few hours into the journey, she scrutinized his dormant form. He was kind of cute, his features were mulatto, very muscular. She felt her body become warm, maybe a little casual sex is just what she needed.
She had suddenly developed an itch she needed to scratch. It was on the fourth day into the voyage that her itch was alleviated. After two days of not so subtle flirting, she led him to a storage locker. She jumped on him with a vigour, that took him, and her by surprise. Poor mama's boy must have been a virgin, he couldn't even last two minutes. But it was enough for her; he must have been embarrassed by his performance and was sullen for the last two days of the journey.
Adam:
Getting off Ganymede was no easy task, he was quickly labelled a terrorist and now accused of the murder of his wife. The security around the spaceport was always heavy. So there was no chance of him boarding as a passenger. He subtly approached the shuttle transport company, to apply for temporary labour.
