<<<<<<<>>>>>>>

"Zander! Boss wants you!" Yelled Steve the manager of the level 99. Level 99 was located on the very top of one of many Gaia Coalition Capital Ships that had crashed on Arrakis.

A man sat on top of the highest point of the ship. He was 1.82 meters tall and wore a dirty white tank top over his fit body, blue jumpsuit pants with the top tied around his waist. A piece of cloth wrapped around his head covering his neck and head only leaving his eyes revealing while he pulled off what looked like ski goggles. "Thanks Steve." He said as he jumped down to the scaffolding and head towards the rickety elevator. The elevator had a metal floor with wire fence doors and sides. He selected the bottom floor before taking of his goggles and pulling down the cloth revealing his handsome face paired with jet black hair, a scar coming from his cheekbone to his ear and amber colored eyes.

Zander is twenty years old and has lived on Arrakis ever since he was one year old. He has no memory of his parents and was sold by slave traders to a fighting ring where he learned to survive until he was thirteen. When he was able to sneak away.

When the elevator stopped and the door opened Zander headed to a large tent. Outside of it was a black hover SUV with 4 men in black suits standing around it. He heard women laughing from inside it as he walked through the entrance he was greeted by a fat man in his 50s named Natan. He is the owner of this scraping outpost across from him sat a well dressed man a few years older then Zander and two more security stood behind him.

"Zander it's good to see you." Natan said flashing a smile as he entered. "This is a representative for Mr. Lawson. He is looking for a tracker in the desert and I recommend you." "My rate is twelve hundred credits a day then sixty an hour for anything under a day." "Zander that is unreasonable!" He yelled, but stopped when the representative raised his hand silencing him.

"What makes I will be able pay that much?" He asked lowering his hand. "All of your guards together cost 300 credits an hour and the car is at least 180,000."

"Haha. You are very observant." The rep laughed before saying. "Very well we will pay your rate." "What do you want me to track?" Zander asked wanting to hurry up and get payed. The representative handed him a holotablet on it was a report on a woman. At the very top was a photo of a beautiful woman with red hair and deep brown eyes.

"What did she steal to cause Fang Corp to want to keep it hidden?" Zander asks as he scrolls down looking at more photos and background information about Katherine. "That's classified. You are hired work so do your job and retrieve the target." "Fine. When and where do you want her?" Handing him a paper and a time the representative said. "ok we have a deal have by my payment ready by trade off." Zander says back before heading to the door. "How did you know we are with Fang Corp?" The rep asks Zander. "Baldy left his pin on."

Coming out of the tent Zander headed towards a shipping container that was labeled in large white letters. "TRACKERS ONLY" As Zander headed in the container a loud siren began to blare as a large storm forming in the distance. 'Shit! I need to go now to beat the storm.'

Time: 12:35 PM

A redhead girl runs down the destroyed corridors of the capital ship GC Serenity chasing her were a group of desert cannibals that lived in the wrecks. Right as she began to go through the glowing exit the tip of her foot caught a mended gas pipe causing her to trip. When she hit the ground the side of her head slammed into the dull metal floor of the ship with a loud bang.

As Katherine attempted to get away from the five of cannibals coming out of the darkness of the hall behind her, she began to lose consciousness. 'No not now I need to find it.' She thought as her vision became a little blurry and she tried to crawled out onto the hot sand only to have the cannibals to begin to dragging her back to the darkness. "Hehe it would be a waste just to eat her. Why don't we have some fun with her first?" One of the cannibals said when he saw her ass in her tight black pants.

Just as she wanted to scream out for help ten loud gunshots went off then the sound of five bodies hitting a mixture of metal and sand echoed from behind her. She began to get up and touched her head to find blood where she hit the ground. As she took a step forward suddenly one of the cannibals with the last of his strength stabbed a small knife into the side her thigh before another shot went off throwing chunks of skulls and brains onto her shoes.

In shock she stared at the exposed inside of the man's neck where his carotic artery pumped blood out as the heart beat in denial. While this happened her savior pushed a syringe into her leg above the knife wound.

"What are you doing?!" She yelled trying to push him away, but he grabbed her arm pulling her over his shoulder before starting to carrying her back into the ship. "Someone help me!" She screamed before she a loud metallic clank and a warm metal tube press against her thigh. "Shut up or you can say goodbye to your leg. Cover your nose and mouth if you don't want to swallow sand." He said before a strong gust of wind hit them. Katherine understood why he said that as she saw a wall of sand chasing the fleeing wind before swallowing wrecks in its way.
