"Hello, I am Gath Pok. And I send my warmest greetings to the crew of the Long Distance Runner." Everyone looked at each other in surprise. "No, this is a recording. I just knew that you were the ones sent to the lab on Ziphine, so that meant that you were the closest ship to Leelos IV. I also know that you have five very special people on board. To me anyway. I was the one who programmed the droids that released the girls on Melee's transport. I also did the same thing for Ano and Tel'met." Pok smiles weakly. "They were the best. And I knew they would continue fighting the Empire to end this foul program." The man in the holo looked down for a second, then looked back up. "I'll give you all the good news first. None of the girl's were here when the Empire attacked. Three days ago, a large force of Mandalorians attacked the base the fake pirates used. Evidently they took the wrong girl. It was simply a matter of putting in a call to one of their ships and making a little business deal, and they agreed to take all the girls with them. Though I think they would have done it anyway. They were part of the Kerish clan, so that makes you special to me too Mr Kerish." "Also just as important, I informed the government of Leelos that an Imperial bio weapons lab on the moon had had an accident, and that they needed to evacuate the farmers. I also suggested they keep it quiet. Of course thay had no problem complying with that request. I even got the droids off. No, the only sentient being to face the Empire here will be me. I have much to atone for, and nothing to live for." "And that is because the Empire, who had been holding my family over my head to do their foul work, killed my wife and two of our children when they put down an uprising on Corroon. One son is with the New Republic, while the other commands a transport for the Empire. In fact, I've learned that the ship he commands was supposed to pick up the stormtroopers at Ziphine. I hope that he's still alive. Though I know that you would have to do what needed to be done." Tears started welling up in his eyes. Pok looks to his right. "The Empire is here. Four Star Destroyers. They'll be in position in about ten minutes. So I must be brief. The girls will be okay. All the alterations done to them were done at the genetic level. Which means that they are not only permanent, they'll be passed onto future generations. Except the things involved in the breeding program itself. The Empire thought that was genetic as well, but it wasn't. I did it chemically. The drugs used will wear off after a year. Which means that Ano and Tel'met will be returning to normal." The doctor looked sternly into the recorder. "But the girls will need to be placed in quarantine. They will begin going through withdrawals. During this time, about one, maybe two weeks, they will become even more hypersexual. I would recommend they be kept in an unconcious state." "Kinna Banka! You remember that favor you owe me?" Everyone looks at Kinna. "I'll explain later." Pok continues. "Look up my two living sons. Their names are Mek and Jek Marisun. Mek works for the New Republic, so he shouldn't be hard to find. Saving your life was one of the high point of my life here in your galaxy." "And let's not forget the newest member of your crew. Joshua Augustus Kirk. I regret that I was never able to meet you. But I'm glad to see that your father kept the promise he made when he was five." Gath Pok crossed his arms and stood ramrod straight. "I remember him standing like this. Just like his father would, as well as your great grandfather James. And he swore to the universe that his first son was going to be name Josua Augustus Kirk. I was pleased to see he did. It is a good name."
