------------VINUS SHIP SUPPLIES AREA ----------------------------

1. Well here we are in the Supplies area.
2. Its an ok looking place but I've seen better.
3. What can we find around here.
4. This place might have something of use to us.
5. Hmm, I don't like the looks of that trader over there in the corner.
6. So who is that other person standing over there?
7. This place looks a bit dodgy.

Commander: Let's see what we can find.

Shady Trader: You're just in Time, the shipment is just about due. The ship we are wanting is now docking and unloading its cargo. Come and see. We've been expecting you to show up.

Commander: Huh? What is this all about? Expecting me to show up for what? I never was
notified that I was to meet visitors here.

Shady Trader: A New Shipment of a rare mineral. We don't know what its called but we found it in the Dark Expanse. We don't really know its worth. just that I be happy to get rid of it.

Commander: Why do you want to get rid of it?

Shady Trader: Because we don't have a use for this element.

Commander: I see, ok well show me the element.

Shady Trader: Here you go (opens the crate).

Loana: Oh my, this is a paradise, its tons of memory computer chips. That's not a rare ship mineral at all. Its just a box of plain ordinary ooh there's a cychip in here too, valuable computer chips.

Shady Trader: Where I come from, we never heard of Memory chip or a computer. Is that what you call these strange objects? Well we called it a mineral because we detected Silicon and other mineral components in those things when we scanned it.

Loana: They are put inside droids to make them run. Those chips by the looks of them maybe part of a main central computer of a droid's main processing posimatrix unit.

Shady Trader: I have no idea what your friend just said, we don't understand about droids and chips. We have no use for them so you can have the whole crate for just 400 credits. I have no use for these things called Memory chips. We don't have droids on our world either.

Storm: A world without any droids running the place, that sounds like my kind of planet.

Loana: Hmm, tempting offer. Well Commander? If we buy then then we won't ever run out of memory chips for a long time that's for sure. There must be over 300 chips in here.

Pay for the memory chips.
Cancel the deal. (script below)

Commander: We already got memory chips. We don't need anymore of them. I don't think we should buy any extras.

Loana: You can enver get enough memory chips, Always handy to have spares.

Shady Trader: But I insist that you buy them from us. it is a token of goodwill also on our world that the first trade is made.

Commander: Trade? I never agreed to make any trade.

Shady Trader: We insist you accept the offering we are giving you.

Commander: Sorry, but I have no use for them. And I'm not paying 400 credits for those. Good luck with finding another buyer.

Shady Trader: What?? Are you saying you refuse to buy them from us?

Herc Commander: Commander, you should buy them hes an Ionian trader and Ionians don't take very kindly to sales being refused.

Commander: Uh oh, Loana, what is Herc talking about? He dosen't appear to look
too happy with us.

Loana: Well, you should've just brought the chips. We know the Ionians and they don't take sale refusals too well, as its a sign of hospitality on their world when you agree to make a sale. To decline is very bad manners in their culture and usually causes conflicts.

Shady Trader: Are you going to buy them from us?

Yes I am
We are still not interested in the sale I have my own traditions.
Er, I changed my mind, of course I am interested.

Shady Trader: (Upset) Oh That is rather disappointing to hear. To not accept our sale is a sign of disrespect for our world. To disrespect an Ionian trader is dangerous.

Commander: I'm Sorry you feel that way, but we will be going now.

Shady Trader: Very well, I suggest you watch your back when you are on our world. You never know what might happen. (Shady Trader leaves)

Commander: Is that some kind of a threat? I don't like threats.

Loana: Oh I think you done it now, Commander. You should've brought the chips. 400 Credits is not a lot of trouble, we won't take that long to get back the money. But now you
just upset the Ionians. There's no knowing what they may do now.

Commander: What do you mean? Its only just one Ionian.

Loana: Maybe its just one Ionian that got offended. But he will go back now and report to his superiors, and then the whole planet will have you soon down in their bad books.

Storm: I don't know much about the Ionians or how their culture works but it sounds like hes saying that we are no longer welcome if we do go to their world. Oh don't worry commander, you got me around to protect you should they try anything.

Loana: Yeah, that's pretty much it Storm. We could become targets from now on. So this could be dangerous.

Herc Commander: You just landed yourself in some trouble with the Ionians.

Commander: Oh, thanks for reminding me. I am not familiar with their world.

Herc Commander: Well you need to be, or you won't survive here for long if you keep on refusing their sales, especially when its an Ionian offering you one.

Commander: Yeah, ok good advice, at least now I know what they are like. I will be careful from now on with these strange people. By the way Herc, did you see the strange glowing eyes he had?

Herc Commander: I suggest you look up in the ship's database to learn more about the Ionians yes we know about the errie glowing eyes, they do give people the creeps. They are not normal looking like the rest of us. They have some kind of energy source in their eyes
which gives their eyes that strange glow. Maybe they got a power reactor in their head or its just the game engine putting too much bloom in his eyes.

Commander: Just stick to the game script Herc. Nobody wants to hear about that.

+ On the way back to the docking area, Two Aliens in dark suits jump out to block our way.

Storm: Get out of our way please and let us through.

Alien 1: You disrespected our customs, why should we let you escape.

Nosey Nella Parkbottom: Oh now we are in trouble Commander.

William Smith: Argh, Commander, what have you done, now everybody will know about how you upset the Ionians.

Commander: In case you hadn't noticed. We are not on Ionian, and this is not your world. We are on Vinus, so you will abide by the laws of this world.

Nosey Nella Parkbottom: Yeah, so there. You can't boss us around or tell us what to do because we are not in your world.

Commander: I just said that Nella, why do you have to repeat what I say?

Nosey Nella Parkbottom: Sorry Commander, I was just observing.

Alien 2 (Grrr...... You have insulted our traditions and customs. Very well
Commander, if we ever see you on our world we will finish this little dispute.

Storm: I do believe that was a threat. What are you two a couple of Bounty hunters?

Alien 1: No, just a couple of offended Ionians because you refused my friends
sale and on our world that's a crime.

Alien 2: But you are ignorant, you do not know the laws on our world. What planet are you from?

Commander: Ermm. Minus Prime.

Alien 1: Minus Prime? A Minusyan? I see, hmm. Well no wonder he has no respect for
the laws on our world. One he dosen't even know them, and Two, Hes a minus. he knows nothing

Commander: Now just a darn minute here, I know nothing?, why I would have you know that--

Storm: Just save it commander, they are not even listening to you.

Commander: And what's a minus got to do with it? Where I come from has nothing to do
with forcing sales on others. I didn't even know you had ridiculous sales laws
on your world like that.

Alien 2: Ridiculous, those are our laws of hospitality you are insulting. My you minuses are
very ignorant indeed.

Loana: Come on calm down gentlemen, surely we can work something out peacefully.

Alien 1: Because we are not on our world we will not execute the laws here, but we warn you, if you go near our world this offence shall be dealt with swiftly.

Commander: I dont like being threatened.

Storm: want me to help out here Commander?

Commander: (whispers) I guess they don't take too kindly to anyone refusing to
accept their trade offers.

+ Loana slaps her head in disbelief.
+ The Two aliens then leave.......

Storm: Well they are gone for now.

+ If already visited the sewers

Storm: Urgh, what errie creepy guys especially their eyes. They remind me of those rats with those glowing eyes down in those sewers. Urghhhh... Maybe they are related in some way. Maybe they are contaminated with the same chemicals.

Rex: Urgh, I hope not. Perish the thought. If that's the case then this is a more bigger
problem than I thought.

Cronis: Er, that don't sound too appetizing to me either.

William Smith: Blergh, makes me ill to think of those rats.

Commander: I know the feeling, they live out in some desert world don't they.

Storm: yeah that's right. In an Inhospitable unmerciful climate.

Commander: Urgh, I don't think I want to visit their world.

Loana: Are you out of your mind Commander, we don't want to be driven into a full-scale war with the Ionians.

Commander: I would have no use for a crate full of memory chips and
Loana already has collected enough of them.

Loana: That is true, have alot of memory chips now that still needs to be analyzed to see if we can find out who or how their behavior routines have been changed, we may even find the maker of these computer chips and locate the factory.

---
+ If you decide to buy the chips

----------PAID FOR A CRATE OF CYCHIP MEMORY CHIPS ----------------

Loana: I have been collecting some of these chips already but there might be some rare ones here.

Commander: So, tell me, what system did you get these chips from ?

Shady Trader: Somewhere in the Bloxis Off Worlds system. I can't remember which jumphole it was, but it was near a green orange ring nebula. Can't remember which system either, sorry.

Commander: Thanks. I think we will check that area out.

Shady Trader: By all means go ahead, I just buy and trade stuff that I find in those systems.

Go back to docks
Ask Shady Trader a personal Question (script below)

Personal Questions:

Why do you have such weird looking eyes?
What System are you really from?
What trades are you interested in?

Shady Trader: Well I'm really from the Obllus System in the Sirus Expanse, but most Ionians
come from Ionia. but I was transferred out to obllus with other Ionians who are working on a project there.

Storm: What is the name of your project?

Shady Trader: Can't say, I just know its a project but I'm not told anymore information than that. Sorry. I don't have the security clearance.

Commander: Ok, I might visit that system as well. Thanks for your time.

Shady Trader: Bye.
