"Well now that we've got that squared away....... Let's go check on some of those other bounties. I'm still hungry and I'm not in the mood to pluck some random Terran chump of the streets." Everyone agreed except for Yuzuka who didn't seem interested in making any more money for the rest of the day.

'Too bad,' Jim thought, 'Aisha was pretty bossy before but now that she's jumbo sized she'll always get her way.'

Aisha scooped up her tiny companions once more. Jim's clothing had sunk to the bottom of a vat of chocolate. Now completely in the buff he was kind of nervous about being exposed to hundreds of people. He'd like to think people wouldn't stare but it's kind of hard to miss a naked Terran riding on the head of a giant Ctarl Ctarl girl. Aisha, realizing this, had pulled out her collar slightly and let him slide down to his arm pits. His arms rested comfortable on the other side of the collar. Jim looked down at the giant bell attached to it. He couldn't understand for the life of him what kind of fashion statement Ctarl Ctarl who wore collars were trying to convey. It certainly didn't help back up their claims of 'superiority' over all other walks of life. In fact it reminded him of the pet cats and dogs sometimes kept at space bases. Aisha started humming some sort of Ctarl Ctarl battle hymn in her raspy voice as she marched along. She bobbed her head from side to side happily occasionally meowing instead of humming, it was pretty obvious she'd really been enjoying her day. Jim smiled looking up at Aisha. He couldn't see her face, only her chin. Jim shot Gene a quick glance only to find him in deep concentration. Jim snorted, he still hadn't figured it out.

As Gene thought about how to scrounge up the other mil he had to pay Fred it suddenly hit him like a ton of bricks. He didn't owe Fred a damn thing!........ For once in his life. The red vial mission had completely cleared him of any and all debt to the man. It felt weird not owing the man anything but he was shocked he had let it slip his mind. The gay arms dealer would have been very confused to see Gene transfering 500,000 wong into his bank account for no apparent reason. Grinning like a hyena Gene considered what he was going to spend his....... the Outlaw Star crews money on. Now if only he could get it out of Aisha's cleavage. He looked up to see Jim smirking down at him, he knew exactly what Gene was thinking.

'You tricked me,' Gene mouthed, he shot Melfina a glare too who surprisingly giggled.

Jim shrugged, this was there chance to rake in some serious wong without being in someone's debt. He wasn't going to let Gene blow it......... Though now that Aisha had the money he doubted any of it would be going to aid the Outlaw Star and upgrade weaponry. Aisha wasn't exactly the sharing type. Around the dinner table even Jim had trouble getting enough food for himself even though he was smaller and Aisha liked him the most! ........................... That wouldn't be a problem anymore. In two days Aisha had eaten two people. Two humans had gone into the young ex-ambassadors mouth, been knocked around by her agile tongue, sent spiraling down her gullet, and dunked in her digestive juices. Aisha had upgraded from tuna cassarole to raw Terran....... And Jim found he still didn't care, Aisha was great! She was the only one who gave a damn about him besides maybe Gene. His mom was dead and his brilliant hacker father had probably died in jail somewhere. Jim could've hacked into the security force's database to find out but he didn't like him enough to find out. And so what if she did like the taste of human flesh (especially coated in chocolate)? They were just pirate scum.

"All right we're here!" Arriving at the police department Aisha and Jim waited outside as the others shuffled in to pick up some new bounties.

"Ummmm, Aisha? Do you think I could get some clothes soon?"

"Of course my little Jimmy treat! Just give me a sec."

"Don't c-............... ahhhh what does it matter?"

Aisha's paw like hand descended like a hawk and snatched a young Terran boy off the ground. His mother began screaming frantically.

"Sorry but my friend really needs your clothes. He's got like one set of clothes he wears all the time and now they're submerged under chocolate."

If Aisha had been trying to to reasure the boy she'd failed. He started balling his eyes out.

"Whoa, I'm sorry! Jeez, quit it little guy!!! You Terran's are too sensative."

"Just put him down Aisha, I don't want his clothes!" Jim shouted down.

"Nyagh?! Now you don't want any?"

"I do want clothes just not his clothes."

"........... Jimmy you're naked, this is no time to be picky. I don't like the design on his shirt either but that's no reason t-"

"That's not it either! Just set him down...... Please?"

Gene was thrilled with what he heard. Aisha's destructive tendencies had led way to looting. Everytime a store was nicked by the ringlet in Aisha's hair or kicked in by her boots lawless citizens had swarmed them stealing everything that wasn't nailed down. The looting had been contained at first but, with Aisha causing more panic with her precense and her less than careful jogs through the city rioting had broken out. People were horrorfied. Many were trying to leave Heifong or, at least, evacuate to a different city. Young punks saw this as a perfect opportunity to smash and grab without being caught. From what the officer told them once every twenty minutes and store was completely cleaned out. Bounty hunters were being offered 500 wong for each rioter or theif they stopped. Though hardly a huge sum that money could add up with Aisha leading the way! They were allowed to stop rioters and theives by 'any means neccessary'. Whether they lived or died didn't matter. That seemed a little heartless to Gene but he realized why such an order would be given. The city was on the verge of anarchy. Anyway it would probably be easier this way. Aisha seemed to like treating Terrans like they were mice, like playthings. But a lot of these looters were young and probably weren't all that bad. Would Aisha really eat one of them? Or would the fiesty catgirl drop them into her more private regions? Gene didn't know, but he'd soon find out! The police threw Gene a thumb print identifier. The Heifong government had every civilians finger prints stored away in their computers. It would record someones fingertips regardless of if they were dead or alive. Gene would just have to use it on the capturees before Aisha had her way with them. The police told him they only had a limited supply that were supposed to only be used by officers but in light of recent events they were letting 'elite' bounty hunters borrow them. He tucked it into his belt.

Coming out he called up to Aisha who was argueing with Jim about something, "Hey, I've got a nice bounty offer if you're interested."

"How many people do we have to round up?" Aisha licked her lips eagerly.

"Hundreds probably. What we do with them doesn't matter."

Jim audibly gulped as Aisha gave a mreowl of joy.

"So what're the details? Are we rounding up the rest of the drug syndicate?" Suzuka asked.

"Nope!" Gene gave the entire crew the specifics.
