*Dragon'taan mining area*
Fayam lowered his guns and read the screens. He whisteled. "My, my. Nobody here. I can use this, actually. Hmm... Most of these are personal files the Tal Shiar gathered... They don't seem specifically interesting to me. Wait, what's this?" He noticed the kidnap plans. He hissed. "Grr... S***! Kidnapping a commander's child? They want her as hostage, I can tell already. But, mark my words: they won't be touching Celina without crossing me!" He dashed out, left the screens untouched and carefully closed the doors before rushing past the foreman. He braked before telling him: "Sorry, I was so occupied! I nearly forgot to report, because I found something: a Tal Shiar outpost in roughly the middle of mining tunnel 27. There's this weird stone in the wall that can be pulled, turned and pushed back. A door will open up and you can do the rest, though nobody's there right now. Get me my reward and I'll be off... I have something important to attend to."

Anna copied. "Roger! Data coming up!" The copilot sent the data to the intelligence branch, and they received the folder "Tal_Shiar_Base_Data.zip" counting gigabytes even in the comprimed state. Next thing she said was, "By the way, I got to tell you I'm going to need to gather..." She hesitated to go on. "...200 times more money to complete my plans?" She sighed. "It's to fund a colossal, high-tech ship, along with 6 side drones and work on Faith. The final cost is 20,5 billion credits. I want to surprise the Tal Shiar, should they clash with me again... ...Sigh. I know. It's a huge number, but I think it's worth it." The copilot, as data analist and
-manager, obviously found Anna's project as a digital blueprint on Faith's computer. The total cost was recalculated to a definite 3,37 billion Gheo, or 20.24 billion credits. For a moment, he wondered if he should send it. He realised, however, it was better not to. He didn't want to risk the data being examined by the wrong person, who would relay the weak spots in the design to Terra-may-know-what kind of evil minds or organisations. Anna spoke slowly. "Soo, uuhhh...... I presume you won't want to pay so much... But I can't get any ship built under half the total cost... I might need to give up the plan..."

Mary was as careless as she could be boarding her flight. She checked everything, did proper declaration, and altogether wondered where exactly she should go at her destination.
