Chapter 10
by The Bully
An alien ship, pirates, a rival company ship, Jerry Steel on an inspection or ?
A surprise inspection by Jerry Steel....
Linda managed to get her little robe on by the time she reached the bridge of the Falcon 4 as Adam quickly sat down in the command chair and adjusted some controls.
"It's a spaceship and it's not on a collision course. It's...." Adam began to say before the view screen lit up before them.
"Falcon 4 this is the Jupiter 245." they heard a somewhat familiar voice say from the speaker.
They both knew that the Jupiter 245 was Jerry Steel's personal ship. It was much smaller than either of their ships but also much faster.
"Jupiter 245 this is the Falcon 4." Adam responded to the voice.
The view screen lit up and the face of Jerry Steel appeared on it.
"Mr. Steel?" Adam said surprised to see his dad's partner's face way out in deep space.
"Hi Adam." Steel said as he looked at his own screen on his ship, "and hello Linda."
"W-what are you doing out here? Is everything OK?" Linda asked as she closed the front of her little robe realizing it had opened slightly allowing her husband's partner to see the top of her bikini.
"Yes. Yes, everything is just fine." Steel continued, "I was just out on a marketing mission and I reviewed your flight plans. I saw we'd all be crossing paths at this point so I decided I'd surprise you two and join you for a couple of days to see how things were going and do a little field inspection of you two."
Linda **** a smile as she didn't like the way the dirty old man was looking at her on the screen.
"A couple of days? Err...that's great Jerry." she finally said realizing her visit with her son was being interrupted by the arrogant man.
"Yeah that's great Mr. Steel." Adam said also disappointed that they had company.
"Great! I'll be docking in 6 minutes." Steel said, "We'll have a good time. I can hardly wait to relax in your rec room."
"6 minutes!" Adam repeated as soon as the screen went blank and he looked down at the tight speedos he was wearing.
Can they get changed before their new guest arrives?
