My 5P Characters

Planet - Hugemont, Spaceport Rudolfus at the Rostof Mine Complex

Captain Martin is on guard duty, Lucy is doing an inventory of the Med Bay stores and the others are checking out the local traders. We get a visit from Hilton Stayright, a Unity Tax Audit Official, who announces that we have to be checked over before we can obtain a Lift Clearance.
                Martin has to get Lucy to stop her inventory and assume the guard duties in the control room, so that he can escort the Officer around The Magic Carpet. As we are just starting out, there is little to Tax. Just a few weapons are confiscated in the way of payment. Hilton logs into the Control Tower and registers our good LC status. Captain Martin shows the Inspector out and then sighs with relief that the fines were not worse, as he had expected.

"Melody here, Captain. 

Ship report follows.

Tower Computer confirms our LC Green status and requests we give 60 minute notice of our impending departure.  Systems all green. Fuel is at 70%. Consumables at 95%. Oxygen tanks being topped up, water tanks full. Emergency Batteries currently 89% and charging. 

Melody out."

One by one, the others return. They all gather in the Mess Hall to discuss what they have discovered and how to make best use of it.

Firstly, the captain fills them in on the little visit by "The Devil's Assistant". He concludes, "At this point, at least we are good to go now, if needed."

Rose began next. "I was in the Pilot's lounge, checking on the fuel situation, when I overheard the name "Carrington". As you know, the Carrington family have built some of the best trans warp engines on the market over the years. It seems that Young Master Carrington wants to start a museum. Not just any old museum, an orbiting museum complete with all the Starships made by man. But there is a catch, they must be space-worthy, I suppose, so that he can play with them. This chap was telling the other guy he had just delivered a Tornado Spacehog to them. I did not find out the location of this "Museum", but I can ask some discrete questions. How did you get on, Shorty ?"

"Well, You heard on the news that a Monkeything had escaped from the Unity Bio Lab. I went up there and spoke to James Dobson on the desk, asked if there was a reward. They said only if it was brought back alive and unharmed. I sort of lost interest then. I suppose some sort of knockout drug could be obtained from them, but it takes all of the fun out of it." He looked at the other crew member, "You look pleased with yourself, Ted. Spit it out."

"I am grinning like a Cheshire cat, whatever one of those was, for rather a good reason. I was coming back from the recycle area and I bumped into Alex Hanson, literally. I was pleasantly surprised when she did not run a mile when she saw me, as your females usually do", he nodded at the ladies, "present company excepted. She is the Director in the Maintenance section. They have just taken delivery of the latest model of the "Klunk n Klean" maintenance droid. Which means they have 15 of the old models to get rid of. Complete with Unity bill of sale Authenticity Paperwork."

Martin looked rather pleased at the news too, "If you can pull this off then we should be able to make a Klean bit of profit."

He ducks as a shower of cushions head in his direction.
