Part 1
“That’s the last time we go to that forsaken planet.” Liz said angrily. They were running low on fuel, fuel she thought she had purchased in Ethnerant. She didn’t know that they had cheated her and only fixed her controls to make them read that she had received fuel.
“Now what are we going to do? We’re stuck out here and we can’t exactly call for help.” Maria said from her left. Maria, Liz’s second and most trusted friend on the ship.
“So what now?” Asked Isabel. Isabel, the ship’s navigator and blonde bombshell. “We are no where near a secure planet, and forget about even trying to try the nearest system.
“Let’s shut down. We need to conserve energy. I mean we’re a bunch a women, we need all the power we can get.” That was Tess, the ship’s system’s controller.
“What do you say Liz? You’re call.” Maria told her.
Liz looked around at her friends and crew. She was the captain in that ship. She was their leader, their sister.
“Shut down. We’ll find another way to get out of here, but for now, we stay stationary.” She said and nodded to Tess.
“Where’s Eliza?” Isabel asked looking around for the ships supply manager.
“I haven’t seen her since we got off Ethnerant.” Tess said as she turned the last switch off.
“She’s been in her room a while. I think she’s sick.”
Liz looked at Maria and nodded.
“I’ll go check on her.” Maria said and went off.

Maria explained their situation to those she passed down the halls. The ship was in a panic. Liz was going to have to talk to them.
She turned down the last corridor leading to Eliza’s room and buzzed the intercom.
“Hey you in there?” She asked through the speaker. There was a minute pause then Eliza replied.
“Hey, yeah I’m here. What’s up, you know what’s going on?” She asked.
“Yeah, Liz ordered most of the power to be shut down. Only few power systems are operational.” Maria explained. “Are you ok Eliza? Everyone was in the cabin and you were a no show. Did you catch something? Do you wanna head to the sick bay?”
“Nah, I’m just a little dizzy. I’ll be right now. Tell Liz I’m ok and that I’ll be there in five minutes.” Eliza said back and clicked off the intercom. She went back down the little chamber in the room and retrieved her clothing. She was enjoying her little souvenir just fine. She smiled to herself and dressed quickly.

Liz swept up her hair into a high ponytail with a black strap of leather to keep it up. She pulled up her white linen pants and wrapped her toga-style shirt around.
After getting refreshed she returned to the cabin where she knew everyone was waiting for her to talk to them.
Sure enough there were all the women gathered around as she stepped out of her chamber.
“Ok everyone just settle down.” She yelled to them. “I’ll explain our situation as soon as all are here.” She looked up and saw as Eliza ran in with the list of emergency supplies and nodded.
“Ok. Well as you may know where are running on limited power right now. We are conserving some much-needed energy because of a very unfortunate occurrence down in Ethnerant. Seems I was deceived into thinking the ship got the fuel I paid for when in reality nothing was done except ripping me off. So on the advice of Tess, I requested that all unnecessary power be shut down and all other be kept at a minimum. So I want you all to play your part and conserve energy. We’ll be out here for a while.” She said and was met with acceptance and assurance.
The others left leaving only Maria, Isabel, Tess, Eliza, Serena, and Liz.
“So do we have enough emergency supplies?” Liz asked Eliza.
“Well, we have enough for everyone if we’re only out here for about a month and a half.” Eliza explained.
“How long do you think we’ll be out here Liz?” Serena asked.
“I don’t know. If we conserve enough energy so that the fuel we have can take us over to Kazak, then I’m thinking a couple of weeks. But I’m not exactly sure of how much fuel we really have. Those fuckers messed with the controls.”
“I almost have everything reconfigured.” Tess said from the controls. “They did some job with this.”
“I’ll go check on everyone and hope no one gets sick.” Said Serena. Serena was the ship’s doctor. Though she was far more than that. They had recruited her from Macroler where she was a renowned scientist.
“You guys should go back to your chambers and rest. It’s been a rough day.” Liz said.
They all nodded with yawns and left to their rooms. Liz noticed how Eliza was more than happy to head back to hers.
She shrugged and listened to her own advice returning to her own chamber.

“Ha, that was close.” Michael laughed as he pushed his seat back from the controls. “Now where to Max?” He turned to his captain, brother, and most trusted friend.
Max brought his left leg up on the chair, bringing his knee close to his face. They barely escaped from a raid on a cargo ship. They took their supplies and left just in time for the authorities to arrive.
“Now, we lay low for a while. Head out to sector 54.” Max instructed to Alex, his ship’s navigator.
“You do know there’s nothing out there for two systems?” Alex questioned. Max only nodded. “Alright.” Alex shrugged and set the ship to course.
Max sighed and ran his hand over his face.
“Yo, Max, you ok?” Michael asked his friend.
“Yeah. It’s just…I’m losing my touch Michael. We’ve never been that close to being caught.” He sighed.
“You? Losing your touch? Come on Max. The most wanted pirate out there cannot be insecure man.” He put a hand on Max’s shoulder. “Look, what you need is a fine bitch to forget your troubles. I know this planet where they run around naked, and they’re prime choice. Come after this is over, it’s you and me, swimming in chocha.” Michael grinned.
Max shook his head and laughed. He looked around at his crew. Alex his navigator, Michael his second, Kyle his pilot, Rath the weapon’s controller, Zan his prized fighter. That was his crew. There were more of course, but he was tired.
“Michael, I leave you in charge. Wake me up when we reach sector 54.”

Liz took off all her clothes and climbed into her bed. She was mad, but she was also tired and needed sleep. Being the only female pirate out in space was exhausting. But being captain of an all female crew, now that was grueling. All female, no men at all. That was her rule. And though it killed her at times not to have any men on board, she was glad not to have the distraction. She’d had enough of them on Earth, no need to take them with her in space, in her ship.
So she granted her crew a chance to have some fun when they landed in a planet, granted that it was possible. But she never granted herself that pleasure. She needed to be their captain. She couldn’t afford anything to cloud her mind, even though at night it clouded her dreams.
