The space odyssey of the snow leopard

"I authorize landing in hangar 4. And the boss wants to talk to you." - a voice came from the station operator's speakers.

I didn't answer, I just continued to look out the window.

This was the first time I killed people, even though it was an order, they were people, they had families, friends, and I just killed them.

I didn't feel anything, I just didn't care about them, in my previous life I didn't hurt a fly, but in this life I kill in cold blood.

But I am different now, and this world, unlike my past, is very cruel, either I am them, or they are me.

Having descended to the station, a disgusting smell hit my nose again. Do they even have ventilation in here? Or, it affects me more, due to the fact that now the snow leopard is a species of cat that is famous for its sense of smell.

I didn't turn anywhere and headed straight to the club.

I wonder if now the whole galaxy will be looking for me for what I did? Spit!

Entering the club, there was no queue, which caused dissatisfaction among many, which I ignored. I walked past the dance floor and stopped for a second to look at the strippers. So what? It's their job, and I'm a club visitor, so why not? 

I also wanted to go to the bar; I didn't drink in my previous life, and even less so in this one. But it's better, I'll do it after talking with Arya.

Rising upstairs, I saw her sitting on her sofa, I unceremoniously plopped down next to her. Her bodyguards wanted to drive me away, but she motioned for them to leave.

"Well, well, I think the job is done, right?" she asked me

I nodded and she added.

"Okay, I'll send you the money now," she said and I heard a ding from my term.

transfer: 2000000 credits

"Wow, you're generous," I told her.

"Don't flatter yourself, this was the order. I'm more interested in how you got from the Citadel here so quickly, is it because of your ship?"

I groaned.

"Do you want to take my ship too?"

'Same?'

I sighed.

"Well..." I told her the whole story from the moment we left the station until my escape.

After my story, she laughed hard.

"Yes, crazy! You know that the whole galaxy will be looking for you!"

"I guessed, but let them come, I'll show them that it's better not to mess with me."

She laughed again.

"I like you more and more!"

"Well, thanks, I guess."

"At my station, you are safe, no one will dare touch you, you will be protected," she said, clearly wanting to offer something

"I'm flattered, but I don't think you're doing this for nothing, right?" she nodded. 

"Yes, I want you to become my partner, exactly a partner, I see in your eyes that you are not going to obey anyone, like me, so I want us to be on equal terms. I will only give you elite orders, and with your ship and your abilities that you showed at the Citadel, these orders will be a piece of cake for you."

Full time mercenary, right?

And you know what?

Fuck him!

'I agree.'

"This is the attitude, let's celebrate it. "Tony, bring two bottles of tequila," she shouted to her bodyguard, and I'll leave.

"Enterprise, you can come here." I called my wife.

She agreed and 10 minutes later my wife came.

"So this is your wife? Not bad, but what kind of clothes does she have?" Arya asked, looking at my wife.

"Well, she expressed a desire to wear it. And yes, she is my wife and also my ship." - Arya froze.

"Are you saying that you are married to your ship?"

'Well, yes! She is the consciousness of my ship and my wife at the same time."

"Girl, my God, it's such a godsend, against the backdrop of all this, that you wear false ears with a tail is normal," she said, to which I simply smiled and said.

"They are real!" - Arya.exe stopped working. I laughed a little and ran my tail over her hand. Making her snap out of her stupor.

"Well, you are the first to shake the world of the pirate queen," she said

"Well, I didn't even try," I replied to her statement.

"It doesn't matter, let's drink to our cooperation." - Raised her glass

"Yes!" - me too 

And in one motion, I drank a whole glass of tequila.

Afterwards, I felt a burning sensation in my throat, but continued to drink.

{5 minutes later}

{on behalf of Enterprise}

"Enter... Ent.. hehe. Enteru... kiss me," she said to the cat's wife

She's so cute when she's drunk.

"Hehe, why.. why.. are there two of you?" - it seems to her that there are two of me.

"I *hic* will catch you *hic*." - and ended up falling asleep on my shoulder

"I can't believe it only took one and a half glasses for her to be in this state," said the pirate queen as she continued to drink.

"She's never drunk before!" I told her.

'It's clear? And you? Can you drink or eat?" she asked

"I can, but do I need it? No, it's not necessary!" I answered.

"I see, I think you should take her to the ship, oh and tell her that I want her to come to me, I have a task for her."

I nodded to her, and took my dear captain into my arms, princess style. And I went out, the guys constantly booed me, that I wanted to bleed their skulls. But they ate as hard as they could.

My poor captain, she went through so much in her past life. But this is exactly what served as my creation, I remember the first time I found myself on a ship, and it was I who was this ship. And I saw her standing on the bridge, and the first thing she asked was for me to create my body, and then take me as my wife, then I was, one might say, a newborn and didn't understand a lot, but my captain told me a lot of stories about her past life . 

I was ready to break through the universes and cut out everyone who hurt her.

I looked at the happy sleeping face of my captain.

Sleep well my captain, I will protect your sleep forever and ever.

{1st person point of view}

I slept well and didn't even have a hangover. But I have a feeling as if someone shared my burden of the past with me, lightening its burden, or is it just me?

Okay, that's not the point!

Today is my first task as a mercenary, I even wondered what kind of task it was.

Rising to the well-known Azari, she greeted me.

"How did you sleep?"

"Like dead," I answered.

"That's great." then added

"Ready for your first task?"

'Yes!'

"Then watch." -a large ship appeared on the screen with a description

"You see this ship, according to some reports it is carrying secret cargo, and the man who hired me wants the ship to be delivered safe and sound. But the problem is that in the Hades Cluster system, communication with it was lost. But before that, one word "Cerberus" was sent, so most likely this ship was captured by Cerberus agents. They probably want the cargo that it is supposed to be carrying, but they won't find it because the cargo is an experimental engine built into it. Your task is to find this ship and clear it of Cerberus agents, just don't damage the ship, and there is a scientist on the ship who participated in the creation of this engine, preferably she should be alive. 10 million credits are at stake. 5 each. Can you handle it?"

I nodded.

"Lean on me!" I told her

'Very good!'

I went back to my ship, not forgetting to look at the stripper.

Climbing onto the bridge.

"Enterprise, the coordinates of the Hades Cluster are in the water, our goal is there!"

"I got it!" she said

Well, I have to make a name for myself so that everyone will be afraid of me and think before they attack me.

I will become a mercenary like the galaxy has never seen, a ruthless wildcat.
