Meanwhile, in the Star Nova Quadrant, a metallic warship floats in the sky, an Apex general, standing, watching through the window at the workers below, whether they are slaves or just soldiers. An Apex secretary walks behind him.
"Sir."
"Report, Carter."
"Human name, August Stratos, approximate age, early twenties. Banking records mostly from Gaea Andromeda, but we've receive information of a ship being purchased at the Outpost for months back."
"Hunt him, I want this Stratos alive, and prepare him for questioning."
"Fa-...Sir."
"Speak."
"We received a distress signal, from Quadrant Zephyr, something about a gas explosion."
"I see, that is the Novanian Planet? Correct?"
"Yes sir."
"Then we can assume those idiot flames touched a gas tank?"
"Ah no. Scouts indicated the flames temperature were higher than a natural Novanian. Even for the Blue Alpha of the current colony."
"Any record files of whom?"
"Some video recordings, a man in a red hat, along with the Vanzetti mafia league, Misha Vanzetti was not among them however."
"You believe they could have caused the gas leak?"
"Assumingly, yes. Other suspicions are arising the fact that the human we are looking for was arrested and taken there."
"Amazing...the human is always a bad luck magnet for us...any other reports?"
"No sir, that'll be all."
"Go then, I want an ICU at the spot and search for any casualties, then send USCM Dispatch Squad to hunt down our two culprits," the stranger turns to a speaker phone implanted into the Apex warship control panel.
"Attention all units! We have two culprits on the loose! August Stratos, human, mid twenties! And the Man In A Red Hat! Have these two men hunted down immediately, and I want them all alive!"
The soldiers below from the glass screen, put a hand out, and the other to their chest.
"Yes Sir, General Kako! Hail Lord Megakong!"
