“It is barbaric that you would even say that. I am well aware of the quality of my goods. That is why I market them at such a high price. But that number on a screen that you so boldly feel could be changed to anything is validated by mineral value.” Rogack was burning with anger that Tozzar would just attack his way of life like that. He made it out to sound like it all was worthless. “There is a reason we have been a capitalistic galaxy for so long. It works.” The new guy was getting aggravated with Rogack’s repay and threatened with a flex of his muscle.
“Now listen here wise guy…” Gabryll moved closer to Rogack. “What the boss is saying is that it’s worth a lot more than money now. If the contractors have offset everything by pulling their little strings then everything has already changed. That was not Tozzar fault.”
“Gabryll really, let the big boys fight this out.” Dowser moved to place a hand on his shoulder.
“What do you know about it old man?” Gabryll sure had energy. “Tera just dropped off a whole battalion of noobs and I don’t have weapons to give them. They are all learning hand to hand combat, expecting at any moment they might get a gun.”
“If I can’t afford to buy the materials I need to build the weapons then what value is that?” Rogack posed. “The miners are not going to work for free. Their job is hard enough. Price of minerals goes up. I already don’t have the money to buy more. My production has to stop. Face it, money runs this galaxy.” Rogack was hard to get to budge.
“I’m not buying it Rogack. Your one of the richest cor in the galaxy. You have money. You’re just worried about losing profits. So what if you don’t make a profit, what good is all that money without a galaxy?” Dowser could not believe this cor would try and play poor in front of them. They were smarter than that. “What’s your real angle? Someone offer you a ton of money to leave us?” Dowser spoke strongly at this point. He practically hovered over Rogack. The cor seemed hesitant before he finally shook his head no.
“Guys this may all be too much for Tozzar to handle. Please, if you’re going to fight, take it elsewhere.” Dr. Anders notice your struggle. What he did not see is that it was no struggle at all. You were outraged. Somewhere deep within you were pulling strength. Something about you that could not stand the idea of a lost galaxy just because of a few weak resolved people turned you on. You found the strength to stand up, your robotic parts obeying you. You were completely in sink. It was a fight, but you managed to stand. Everyone looked at you. Some scared, some inspired, some in aww.

Tozzar smiled as everyone in the room turned to him and started to fall in line with his plan. Tozzar had always played the shadows. Collecting information and selling it to the highest bidder. He had never been a leader, but apperently by collecting all types of information he had learned enough things to learn how to lead. It came with the work. Saw all the up and down of command, especially the downs...usually he was paid to find the downs of leaders. Perhaps having been a spy would pay off now.
"The major companies control the universe now and they wish to destory it. The Irrational numbers guide the universe and wish to control it. I have lots of information, and a good cause I merely wish to level the playing field again. I don't want to rule the universe. I don't want to pull the strings per say...well for a while yes. But more in a cleaning house type of way. I want to break these companies down. Destory the Irrational Numbers and put the universe back on track with a bunch of small to medium sized companies killing and fighting each other over money. That's the universe I know and love. If I have to prop up Rogak and others to do so, so be it. Atleast Rogak here is looking to make a buck and not kill billions of people like the other sides are trying to do. Greed is greed, but Rogak seems to be a fair guy as long as he is making his money. From what I know about you, you don't mistreat your workers or extort them. Your just a good old fashioned capitalist who wants to makes absurd amounts of money. I find nothing wrong with that."
"As to how I will acquire the minerals? Well sir, how many people really want intergalatic genocide. Especiall now that the companies are threatened and cracking down on everyone. killing the Markets, making billions homeless and starving. Most people are generally good unless blinded by the evil at the top. The sheeple would fall in line with the companies had I not step up. It is easy to follow the crowd after all, apathy is the worst problem of all, but I threw a throne in their side. I provided a new option to the people of this galaxy. I provide an outcome that most would say is "moral". They don't have to stay under the companies' heel while I am a live. I am hope. I am freedom." Tozzar laughed, "The basic person is a brainless t**t. I'm a terrible person, but they don't know that. I'm just the lesser of two evils. If the companies were smart and placed hardcore loyalists into their mines to keep the rank and file in line, well mining isn't exactly the most technalogicaly advanced skill set. Easily replaceable. Force is always an option. The companies are so worried about their precious doomsday machines, so worried about the artifical markets and cities. Do you really think they expect us to go for the minerals? Most people like awareness of whats not in front of them. They expect a front on assualt. They want that. They prepare for that. They wants us to charge them head first where we would break upon their walls. I'm not that stupid. I'm a spy by trade. I understand how to work from behind the scene. Manipulate the situation to my advantage. Play on my opponenets weaknesses while avoiding their strengths. We can't take them in open battle, but at the end of the day they draw their power from artifical constructs that hold power because there is no other option, no other model, for people ot cling to. Create another option, another option, another market, we will tear the companies power out from under them."

“My family has made a dynasty out of the Herald Miners. My great great great grandfather built his first mining facility off some third world planet and built it up from there. Your words are kind Tozzar. I am nothing but an honest businessman. I had my doubts about you when we first met Tozzar but I can see now how wrong that was. I will return to my headquarters, continue mining and producing, and see how many of my brothers I can scrounge up (the Cor Mafia).” Rogack had earned pardon at this point. He bowed and left the room. Dowser looked enthusiastic, Gabryll looked worried, and the scientists were amazed.
“See when you say it Tozzar you make it not sound like you would be taking over but in a way that is still what you are doing. I do not understand how you make it sound so good.” Gabryll seemed to be fighting with your words. HE wanted to believe them but it still sounded like Tyranny.
“Tozzar I will map out our forces. We will put pressure on other mining facilities and use force only once we have to. I will be on my command bridge if you wish to have a part in the decision making.” Dowser was thrilled to take action. He grabbed the forearm of your most dominant hand tentacle, one of which was complexly mechanical, just like the traditional Roman’s embrace one another. “Its good to have you back.” After that Dowser parted form the room.
All that remained were Gabryll, Dr. Anders, and his assistant Felicity. The two were eager to run experiments to see just how well you had mended your own body. It was remarkable how well you gained control. Hopefully it would remain that way.
Gabryll still looked beaten up but had a smile. He wanted to believe you and with that came an idea. “Sir, would you mind appearing before my trainees? They could really use your words of inspiration to galvanize them.” Gabryll looked so hopeful. He was a young man, probably very talented. Much about him reminded you of Troyce. He would probably be very powerful someday if given the proper mentorship.

Tozzar smiled as Felicity asked if Barney was sane, "No Ma'am Barney once tricked my and Troyce into thinking he turned a rock into a bomb in under a minute." Tozzar laughed but the motion made him double down in pain. "The line between genius and insanity is thin and Barney is living proof of that, but even so he is one of my staunchest allies. In this dark time he is the...one of the few people I trust," Tozzar looked at the two doctors as he slid into the floating chair. They had saved his life, but he did not know them. Before waking up he had never heard of them. Did Das Berg know them? Or Dowser? Could they be trusted? Simon proved that everyone he knew was potentially an wolf in sheeps clothing. They knew his entire recovery plan, his weaknesses. Tozzar flew the chair out of the med center thinking on this.
As he hovered threw the hallways he looked as everyone he passed stopped what they were doing and stared at him. That was to be expected he was a figure of awe and fear now in the galaxy. He was the man who set it on fire, but his enemies had resources he could not imagine. How many of these men and women he were passing were not looking at him out of awe, but were seeing his condition. Who all would know he was confined to a hover chair by the end of the night. How many people already knew he was a cyborg now. Certainly the information would spread like wild fire and the companies would take advantage of it by now.
Slowly Tozzar made his way up to the command deck. When he open the doors people of all races were busy working on various consoles, slowly everyone stopped and turned to him. Within a minute all eyes were on him, all sound stopped. Tozzar floated in as eyes followed him. As he placed the chair next to the command chair in the center of the command deck he smiled, "I'm back. What have I missed? Have you all been fanning the fire I started?" Faces on the crowd went from shock to smiles as people started clapping all around him.

The two laughed alongside you. Dr. Anders was a very healthy middle age human with strong feature and a lengthy height. His stance was always alert. He was probably a very brilliant man, working from mostly theory rather than procedural work. He was well groomed and trimmed, even the beard he wore was even in all aspects. This made his smile one the women fought over. If he was much of a social being he would have his pick. Next to Dr. Anders, his assistant, Felicity was more attractive than most but her heart for learning after Dr. Anders kept her pretty sheltered. The slight bags under hers eyes showed she worked very hard. As it was, looking after Dr. Anders prized experiment, you, was a 24 hour job. She only slept when Dr. Anders took it upon himself to take the monitor. That monitor, it caught your eye as you floated out of the med lab. It was used on you once to freeze up your armors and again on another occasion to sedate you. Was it merely monitoring your vitals or controlling them? Either way the cute young human with short brown hair and childlike attitude always had her hand on it. Could either of them be trusted? Do your goals even matter to them? Maybe the only reason you have made it this far is because you are their experiment and they want to see it through.
Moving through the halls was a maze. This was a completely new ship with an all new design. You had to find a legend along a wall to read which color mark to find before heading in the right direction towards the bridge. From the looks of it this was a medical and research ship. It was highly technological. One of the rooms the legend direct towards was the target location manipulator room. If this ship had one it meant it could teleport to any known location in the galaxy. Once this technology went main stream your enemies could be anywhere at any time. They may even be on the ship already. The number of eyes you were attracting made that thought escalade. Some people noticed who you were and would salute. Some would just keep walking. You could hear whispers all over. A telth soldier looking mighty tough neared you with a shot gun in one hand. He peered down at you as you floated by. As he moved his gun another telth soldier yelled Tozzar on deck. The whole room quickly stood at attention.
“Commander Zoul has been expecting you.” The same soldier pointed down the hall towards well-guarded hatch door. “I’m a big fan your lordship. My whole company, Tentaction, joined up with your cause after you first announced the genocide weapons. I am proud to serve you on this ship!” He saluted once more after leading you through those doors.
“Lord Tozzar on deck!” A burly cor stomped the rifle of his butt against the metal bars of the bridge. All faces shot away from what they were doing to stand at you attention.
“I'm back. What have I missed? Have you all been fanning the fire I started?" It started slowly on one side but after a while the whole command floor was cheering. Everyone was thrilled to see you back in action.
“Tozzar am I pleased to finally make your acquaintance. When they first told me I would be harvesting precious cargo I would have never thought they meant you.” A pristinely fit telth wearing half-moon glasses greeted you with one tentacle and in another tentacle holding on to a cup of tea. He sipped the tea slowly. “It is marvelous to see you in such good health. As commander of this vessel I give you all rights and privileges I can bestow upon you. Tell me Lord Tozzar, I did not expect to see you out of that medical lab so soon, to what purpose do I owe this honor?” Zoul’s slightly teal complexion made him stand out against most other telth. He had nothing but the best on him. Even the fully custom Sih magnum he had strapped to one holster and the sword in the other. He could be a very dangerous man if needed.
