Miracle R Us Hospital was a new addition to the run-down neighboorhoods near Starwind And Hawking Enterprieses. The hospital wasn't even a year old, in fact. Miracle R Us Hospital was famous for pulling off miracles, like curing patients of terminal illness...or extending life to those patients. Gene knew that's where Aisha had taken Jim. Gene had only caught a glimpse of Jim running away from the office at top speed. Gene thought Jim had been naked, but he couldn't tell in the 5 seconds that he saw Jim.
The blond-haired man was being dragged by Suzuka. The man's name was Albert DeZarro, and that was all that Suzuka could get from the man. As they walked to the hospital, they saw several police cars and vans rushing to the sweat shop. All 30 children was safe and sound..but, all the slavers had gotten away. That would change.
Gene and Suzuka entered the lobby of Miracles R Us Hospital and asked for Jim Hawking. They were given a room number, and Gene went to the room. Suzuka decided to keep an eye on DeZarro in the lobby.
Gene walked into Jim's room. In the room, Aisha was sitting at a chair beside the bed that had Jim on it. Jim looked to be asleep and badly burned in places. Luckily, none of the burns looked to be life-threatening.
"Gene" said Aisha. "did you kill that Ctarl-Ctarl?"
"He ran away" said Gene. "you killed his mate"
Aisha's eyes went wide. And then, she looked digusted. "What kind of a Ctarl-Ctarl would run away...?"
"Aisha, what happened to Jim?" asked Gene.
"That bitch ate him" said Aisha in a voice that was determindely keeping calm. "I managed to save him, but he seemed scarred out of his wits. Then, I came here and got this room for Jim. Dr. Alavri gave Jim a shot in the arm of something to make him sleep....Gene, I never saw Jim so scarred"
"Well, being eaten can have that effect on a Terran" said Gene.
"What about the sweat shop?" asked Aisha.
"All the slavers got away" said Gene. "we have one captured in the lobby. But he's not telling us anything, so you might do something about it"
"I'll be happy too" said Aisha.
"So, what did Dr. Alavri say?" asked Gene.
"She said that Jim needed to stay here for a couple of days" said Aisha. "they're going to do something tomorrow"

"You WHAT?!"
"Sir, we didn't have any choice! Starwind and Hawking Enterprises came to..."
"Starwind and Hawking? Who are they?"
"A couple of outlaws"
"That's all you know?"
"Yes"
".....Very well. How's our little project going?"
"65% Complete"
"65%?!"
"I know, I know..but we couldn't have the little brats working round the clock! Terrans need sleep, you know"
"Set up shop on Sentiel III. Plenty of 'workers' there"
"Sentiel III? But that's in the middle of nowhere!"
"Exactly"
