Freeport 11, Omicron Delta System
After a hard day of hunting Nomads. Alicia was feeling tired. She decided that she needed to get rid of the Nomad brains in her cargo hold, and FP11 was the perfect place to do it. A few thousand credits, and Alicia could proceed to Omicron Minor. As the robots were unloading the Nomads, one of them jumped out at a Junker who happened to be walking past.
"Stay away from him!" shouted the Zoner commodity trader. The Junker's eyes started glowing purple.
"What happened to him?" asked Alicia.
"He was infected by that Nomad. Only an idiot wouldn't know that a Nomad can take over a human," replied the dealer.
A mysterious figure in a black uniform shot the Junker and started talking to Alicia.
"You'd better come with me," he said.
After the flight to Toledo in the Omicron Minor system, the man said "One of the greatest threats out there are Nomads who have taken over a human body. They could infect more humans, or leave Sirius wide open for an invasion,"
"An invasion?!" Alicia was rather horrified that it could happen.
"Have you heard about the events in the Omega Border Worlds concerning Nomad-infected Rhineland military personnel?" was what the man in uniform asked.
"Yes, I have. But a full-scale invasion? How?" was Alicia's response.
"We think that the Nomads are doing that to bring in a large invasion fleet from somewhere outside Sirius. Whether it is Nomads or their ancient masters, the Daam K'vosh, we are still uncertain,"
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Because, when whatever is going on there comes to it's conclusion, we'll need every new officer we can get. I'm just preparing you just in case your unique abilities are needed,"
"What abilities?"
"Just wait and see..."
