Officially, that was why they had wanted a private pool, to afford

Kei had insisted (and Yuri agreed) that some distance between
Killgore's men and them was a good idea.

If I recall, Iria is off with Killgore.  I'm sure she would agree with
Kei in this.

Yep.

At least there wasn't any risk of the mercenaries being armed.
Weapons were strictly prohibited on Xyphos 13. Extensive searches of
every single item leaving a ship were performed by a number of people
using some of the most expensive detection equipment in the galaxy.
Anyone protesting the treatment to any degree had to leave the planet
immediately. The search was so thorough, Yuri even had to leave her
bloody card behind.

If they're that careful, I'm surprised they allow the Di^H^H Lovely
Angels in the same system.

Heh. Hard to keep them away, or else everyone would.

his side, helping with the deep wound he had sustained in their last
battle with Zeiram and the chaos at Holcomb. He wore a pair of
sunglasses, which hid his eyes completely. That made Kei wary, as she
was certain that despite his face being pointed away from her, that
he was watching her intently.

She should have put on her top before leaving the private pool area.
Since he's gay, maybe she just has some drool on her, ah, chin.

She did. I mention it earlier.

Kei pushed the concern from her mind. There was no way she could go
hunting for him. While the single tourist area of the verdant
pleasure moon was entirely {located : contained} in a two-hundred
kilometer radius, there were small outposts spread all over the moon
where he might have traveled {to :}. Kei was here to relax, trying to
unwind before everything hit the fan, which would be soon, if her
instincts were accurate. Iria was going to turn up something, she
just knew it. It was only a matter of time.

With Kei and Yuri on the scene, it is inevitible.

True. And Zeiram hanging around in the background somewhere.

The slicer turned to see the speaker was a man that was just as tall
as him, with an odd patch taped to his side. His head was {titled :
tilted} so that he could peer at Mikael from above his glasses. It
was fairly obvious from his body posture and the tone of the
statement what the guy was interested in. Mikael used a similar one
when picking up women.

Unless there's something stenciled there.

Heh

 > had stolen the samples with the intention of controlling Zeiram and

selling off duplicates as a powerful strategic weapon. Yuri had to
admit, one Zeiram was bad enough, a small army of them would be
impossible to stop with anything but large scale conventional
weapons.

I'm not sure any conventional weapons would work.  The only ones the
Mycian military had that could leave a mark were easy to overrun.

Oh, they killed a lot of them, mostly with fire, but they weren't easy to
kill as a whole.

would have been aware of her acquiring the weapon and could have
positioned his head below her back and suffered only several light
wounds in non-vital areas. As his vision turned red, both due to the
blood in the water and his brain starting to shut down, he thought of
the ignominy of it all. The other Samisdat would have made fun of him
for being killed by his own weapon.

I could smell that one coming.

Hmm. Didn't think I telegraphed it that bad.

Thanks for the help.
