Silgax is in his ship making a few rounds observing the state of things. He continues to walk around the ship and he then says “ what is the update on our recent capture” “ the capture is about to wake up master” replies the computer assistant. “ good let me know when it is awake” replies Silgax “ alright sir” replies the computer assistant as Silgax continues his rounds. He then stops and makes himself something to eat before he walks and looks out the window. “ my capture in the null and void has caused me problems, my little trip there has resulted in me losing my territory. No problem, I shall reclaim my territory” says Silgax “ sorry to interrupt sir, but the capture has awoken” says the computer assistant. “ wonderful news” says Silgax as he walks down to the holding cells in his space ship. Silgax punches in a code and the cell doors open and he steps in as they shut behind him. He then looks at his prisoner and says “ tell me everything about the anadites” “ they are all extint, they perished when planet Scar blew up” replies the prisoner. Silgax then hits the prisoner who cries out in pain “ that was the wrong answer. Now I am going to ask again Toby what do you know about the anadites” asks Silgax “ I already told I know nothing” replies Toby. Silgax hits Toby again this time causing Toby to fly into the wall. Silgax then looks at his fallen prisoner and says “ I don’t understand why you are so stubborn. You aren’t the first person I have taken hostage and you wont be the last. I am Silgax and one thing I am good at is working intelligence out of beings” “ you are also a war criminal” says Toby as he makes it back to his feet before he is struck down by Silgax “ insulting me wont get you anywhere” says Silgax as he walks towards the door that opens and he walks out. Silgax then looks at Toby before he says “ you know you could have made it easier for yourself and just gave me what I want but since you want to be stubborn I have no other choice” as he glances over at the other cells before he says “ release some auto neuron gas into cell B124” “whoa whoa whoa, think about what you are about to do. If you kill me you are going to be in a lot of trouble” cries Toby. This prompts Silgax to burst out into laughter and say “ I am Silgax. Remember you said it yourself that I am a war criminal. I thrive off wars. You think I fear the enforcers” he pauses and laughs some more before he continues “ they have been trying to get me for years now and they have failed. Everytime they come for me I always kill their best agents. So no I am not afraid of killing you” “well if I die you wont get the info you need” says Toby “ see now you just dug yourself an even deeper hole. Besides the gas isn’t meant to kill. All it is meant to do is make you fell good. I may be a war criminal but I treat my guests and prisoners rather well. I mean most of them may not be alive to tell the tale but I do treat them well. My hospitality is certaninly better than what your kind has afforded me in the past” replies Silgax. Silgax then walks away. At this point gas starts to be poured into Toby’s cell and he tries to hold his breath to no avail. He begins to inhale and he anticipates that soon he will be in a great deal of pain. More pain than he is from the injuries he has suffered at the hands of Silgax. However what he experiences is the complete opposite. He starts to feel calm and relaxed. His injuries from fighting the Silgax drones and silgax himself when he got captured are now mysteriously healed. He also starts to feel a great sense of euphoria.
