A Massive Tragedy (3)

"Hush. Our leader knows what he is doing. We should not comment on such things. He will end our lives if he found out."

"All right, enough about the admiral. His decisions are beyond our control."

"That is right. My only hope is that we can finally settle down here in Starry Crescent Land. I no longer want to wander about with no place to call home. I want some security in my life."

"Haha! Wang, are you joking? We are pirates of the galaxy. Our lives are supposed to be adventurous and deadly. Are you really longing for security?"

"Damn, all these years have been tough. I cannot help but think about retirement already. In fact, I am starting to miss our own planet."

"Stop thinking about it. We are all wanted fugitives on our own planet. Going back means death for all of us. Now that we are here on this ship, we should do our best for the admiral. At least, we get to eat well, drink well, and have a decent life."
