On that reply from...Kaze, was it? Amber turned around in a flash and stared down the dragon-thing that stood before her. 

[color=a187be]''A lie, is it?'' [/color] The scientific got out her data pad and, after expertly navigating through folders and sub folders while keeping almost perfect eye contact, the data pad started projecting multiple small holograms upwards. 

[color=a187be]''Just last month [i]thirteen[/i] space pirates attacks were recorded among three different sectors.'' [/color]

Images showed numbers on the hologram. 

[color=a187be]''Overall, casualties are in the thousands.''[/color]

Pictures and videos appeared of dead or wounded civilians and destroyed outposts, villages and smaller cities. 

All while she spoke and made her point, she walked up to the Kaze until she was right in front of him, looking up at him. Undaunted. 

[color=a187be]''What kind of an idiot are you to take for granted that the Space Pirate [i]all[/i] lived on [i]one [/i]planet? Do Humans live only on Earth? How safe do you think it would be for a species of pirates to establish themselves on one planet when half of the known universe is after you? Just because yours is extinct does not mean all species are as bad at staying alive as yours was.''[/color]

She then closed the data pad to put it away before adding [color=a187be]''And I am not talking only about humans - there were other species living on those worlds. They strike at us with impunity because of the X crisis. A Crisis that could be fixed if [i]she[/i] did not abandon her home and own species to die. She,''[/color] Amber said as she pointed to the Samus' hologram, [color=bc8dbf]'' is the target of our mission. Thus, she is the asset.''[/color]

Amber maintained eyes contact for a few seconds of silence before breaking it. She shouldn't have burst like that, but it was done now. To her, Samus was a traitor. Nothing more.
