Two Years Ago...

"Bullheit!" Zorac called to his commander. "Get in here!"

The commander came running into their secret headquarters. "Yes, Master Zorac?" he asked.

Zorac was sitting on his throne, frowning down at Bullheit.

"What is the latest report?" he asked. Bullheit took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He didn't want to embarrass himself in front of his lord. If he did, the consequences would be severe. He remembered about three years ago, there was a rumor going around on the ship that his best friend Ameo was sentenced to prison for life for tripping over the carpet in front of Lord Zorac. Bullheit hasn't had any friends since then.

Then, before he realized it, tears were forming in Bullheit's eyes. He wanted to stop the waterworks, but he could not. He really missed Ameo.

"Bullheit!" Zorac yelled, breaking into his commander's thoughts. "Do not waste my time! What is the status?"

"Apparently, he did not know that I was starting to cry," Bullheit whispered to himself, brushing away his tears.

"Then again, we are brothers."

He took a small step towards his boss and spoke.

"Lord Zorac, we have taken---"

"No," Zorac interrupted him. "It is 'I have taken,' not 'we have taken.' I plan the attacks. You and the others just attack. Is that clear?" Bullheit nodded.

"Yes, sir," he replied, feeling ashamed for messing up in front of his master. This was not the first time Bullheit messed up in front of Zorac. He's done it twenty - no, forty-seven times - in a row. Yes, Zorac was disappointed, even angry, at him, yet he never punished him.

"Because we are brothers," Bullheit always stated.

The commander was about to speak when he noticed someone standing next to Zorac's throne. He became concerned, yet curious. Zorac never allowed any of his minions to stand next to his throne, let alone his own brother. Bullheit knew he should not question his master, but he needed to know.

"Who is that?" he asked, pointing to the figure that was next to his lord.

His boss chuckled. "This is Senlie," he replied. "He is your replacement."
