Zaphod_the_spacebum

Caged cat

Zaphod paced around the storage room looking for an escape route. The old man hadn't spoken to him for a few hours, but had sent him food and drink. The old man found out quick enough while Zaphod was unconscious that what he had said was true. His organs were not suitable for transplant into a Caitian or Human. But, Zaphod really believed that his organs were not what this old man was interested in. He had said that Joe and crew had destroyed his laboratory. This caused Zaphod to laugh out loud. He could picture the big Nausicaan Byblos, and the cyborg Shane tearing through the old mans lab, laying it to waste. The old man said he was being held as a bargaining chip. He wanted reparations for his damage. This made Zaphod laugh harder. He only knew his new crew mates for a short time now, but he knew enough about them to know they had a good reason for destroying the old mans lab. And, they were mercenaries, money was a very precious thing to them. He knew Joe would not pay this old man any money. So, the only hope he had was for a rescue. The old man had tried to turn him away from his crew by telling him that Joe had “sold him out”. But, Zaphod knew like destroying the old man's lab, Joe had good reasons for turning him over to the Xorax. He liked Joe Manning. Joe had told him early on that he knew him from somewhere. Zaphod had been racking his brain these last months trying to remember where Joe knew him from. Maybe one day he would sit down with him and figure out where. Zaphod sat on the examining table and lit a spiced cigarette. He raised his glass and took a sip.

“Here's to ya crew. Hope ya find me soon. I'm bored!”
