Chapter 7 by conceptmonger conceptmonger

What's next?

"I'll hold onto the box for now."

Fortuna seems disappointed, but he nods his head with understanding. He begins to usher you towards the door, and two hulking guards who were standing on the side begin to fall in behind him.

"This is good, we are only a little bit behind schedule," he says to himself, as he practically shoves you towards the door. As you get outside, he leads you towards a large hoverskiff that seems to be already powered up and ready to go.

"After you..." he says, clearly checking you out as you pull yourself up and give him a view from below. You sit down on the side of the skiff and feel the wind in your hair as the craft flies you through the streets and outside the city limits with incredible speed. You grip the box in your hands, as if to make sure no one can snatch it from you.

"So where are we going anyway?" you yell over the sound of the engine and the whipping desert wind.

"You shall see... you shall see..." says Fortuna, in the most unsettling way possible. You will be so glad to deliver this box and have this entire episode behind you.

In the distance, a massive looming structure begins to take shape against the pale moonlit sky. The dunes part and a giant gate in the side of the structure becomes bigger until the skiff is stopped and you all depart the craft.

"Just through this gate, and you'll get your credits..."

Bib looks at the case you're carrying as if with jealousy. He seems to be awfully eager to be done with this transaction as well, which makes you feel a little comforted.
