"Captain, you Need to sign this here." Captain Tarkur Looks over his shoulder, to see his XO comming his way. The male Anthro Cobra paused and let her catch up.

"Thank you Astrid! What do I sign here by the Way?"

"Resupply with Food, Water and Torpedos. You were supossed to sign it 1 and a half Hours Ago." Astrid says, Walking now by his Side. Her Captain was not lazy, no! He was Member of the Naval Elite, who was Handpicked for the New "Striker"-Class Dimension Submarine UDX-02, but they all tend to…..be less into the rules and where far more relaxed than the rest of the Navy. All in All was UDX-02 not a bad place to live on. Even for a Non Void Born like Astrid Kramer! She was sometimes a Victim for Little Pranks of the Crew, but liked them all like a new Family. But there where Times, where Astrid was thinking About her former life.

'My Life was never supposed to go like this...'

Astrid was not even A being Born in Space! Her Own Race were not even advanced enough, to get to their own Moon! She was Born on the Planet Earth in 1948, in Western Germany. Unfortunatly, Earth was Conquered 1962 in 16 Hours by the Void Born, as Astrid was only 14! She was captured and shipped of World as Slave, mere Hours before the hole "Owning Rights" of her Race were sold to a Kitsune Rough Trader. Astrid was soon put like a Animal on a Sellingstand of a Slaver. She was already sure of it, that she would end up as some Kind Adult Plaything. But then she was sold to a Young Cobra Boy, just 2 years older than her! This Boy was Tarkur!

Astrid expected to treated poorly by her new "owner", but quite the opposit happend here! He treated her almost like a Equal and firstly removed the Electric shock Choker from her Neck. First she was perplexed by this. But he continued to thread her like this. What surprised her most was the Fact, that he used…."Family connections", to gain her first Status as Citizen Second Class and 2 Years later even the Status of Citizen 1st Class! She was intrigued by him and why he was doing all this. Soon, she started to admirer him and this Admiration turned slowly into Love. As he made on day his move on her... she let him go on with it.

Both married secretly, because it was still not liked to see a True Void Born marry a Member of a other Species. Later, both joined the Navy. Astrid later, because she could not bear it, to be seperated from him. Both were good and at a age of 24, Astrid was handpicked, to serve alongside Tarkur aboard UDX-02!

"Oh, I was thinking it would do it himself!" Tarkur's Voice shake her out of her Memories, as he sign everything on this Datapads. He gave them back to her, with a Smile on ist Face. "Sooo, we have Time before our next Mission. Say....what would you say….if we do a Little detour and...." He said with a sly Smile. "...make a Little mix of our DNA?" Astrid faked a shocked reaction, with a Smile of her own.

"Oh, you knew, I would then not be able anymore to serve with you. And who else should Keep you able to work on your own?"

"Ha ha, True! True!"
