5. Of Utopia, Pirates named Bob, the Thargoids, and Chuck Norris

You've heard of Pranav Antal and his idea of Utopia, at least I hope you have, since he must make the list of top ten most powerful people in the Galaxy. Not counting Thargoids. Or Chuck Norris. So anyway, I pledged my allegiance to him awhile back. Why? Credits. Everything for credits. Well, not only. Turns out he's got some good smuggling round his place. So I did it for the Credits as well. The ideals? Always seemed a bit sketchy to me. Which is fine, makes my business easier.
They pulled me out of a scrap awhile ago, got me a new ship, a new name, and even a new face. They're nice guys, and they come in all shapes and sizes. More importantly, all professions.
So you think we're all innocent in Utopia? Yeah, that's right, the most infamous smuggler this side of Reorte (apart from the Thargoids and Chuck Norris) just nicely pledged and gave up smuggling completely? Of course He did.
They also happened to have some pirates, one of which was already in Kamito. Let's call him Bob, shall we? I had already met Bob in Utopia’s furthest enclave (it's actually our holiday resort),Takurua. Nice Place, beaches, palm trees, and pirates named Bob. I had done a few jobs for him over there, some of them with ridiculously high payouts. Luckily, some of them were for free. Which meant there was a Pirate named Bob who owed me a few favours in this system.
The Kamito Raiders will, well raid Kamito. Nowhere and nobody will be safe. Except The Thargoids and Chuck Norris.
