"Anything unusual?"

"Nah... nothing on this side," a man replied, turning around. Spotting a man in similar gray and black garb, he heaved a sigh of relief. "Time to switch?"

But the newcomer shook his head and adjusted his black coat. "Not yet. I came early to let you in on something. Guess what..."

"Come on, you know I don't like gossip..."

"This isn't gossip. They brought someone in on the north side," admitted the second man. "According to the report, a man was found stark naked and on the brink of passing out from exhaustion."

"What kind of crazy story is that?!"

"It's true! Here's a copy of the report!" laughed the man, retrieving a folder from his storage ring. "It's all there, so see for yourself!" VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

"Give me that... Seriously?!" The first man joined the second's laughter, flipping through the pages with more and more intrigue. "What kind of lunatic would come to a vacant planet naked? How did they even make the journey?"

"That's why he'll go through questioning," answered the second man. "They've got him hooked up to a drip until he regains consciousness, secured and bound of course. I just saw him myself!"

"Well, I know what I'm doing during my break!" Chuckling, the first man scanned back over the file. "So he's a two-star? Yet he arrived here naked? I get why they're eager to question him."

"What are you two doing?!"

Both men abruptly straightened their backs and turned their attention to the open space in front of them, overlooking the vast, desert landscape from the security of their watchtower.

"I asked, 'What are you two doing?!' Are you going to answer, or should I file for insubordination?"

Without warning, Burja covered his palm in cosmic energy and slapped the slumbering man across the face. When that did nothing, Burja proceeded to backhand the man. "Wakey, wakey... We've been great caretakers thus far, so why not take a moment to thank us?"

"Uhhh... But I didn't order a wake-up call..." groaned the man, shaking his jaw and neck. He blinked, adjusting his eyes to the new setting and lighting. Taking a moment the man noticed the metal clamps around his wrists, ankles, knees, elbows, waist, and torso. "And I'm naked... Sorry, but I don't swing that way."

SLAP!

"I see, a wise guy?" Burja chuckled.

"Sorry, but I'm not a masochist either," the fully-revealed man laughed in retort.

"Then tell me, what are you?"

"Me? I'm a human male that would prefer that you don't perv on me while I'm restrained. Everyone's got their thing but I believe in consent."

SLAP!

"I already told you, I'm not into that. If you're trying to be welcoming, maybe some clothes would be useful," remarked the man.

"Hmmm... Does that not hurt? Am I supposed to hit harder?" Burja joked, adding static electricity to his open hand. SLAP! "Is that better? Perhaps you'll be more cooperative now?"

"How am I uncooperative? You've asked me one question and I've answered it!" shouted the man, glancing at the two guards on either side of him. "Really? Were the restraints not enough? A guy crash lands on a barren planet only to be rescued by a bald, pompous sadist who can afford bodyguards?"

SLAP, SLAP!

"Again with the slapping..." sighed the man, moving his jaw as if he had an itch. "At least introduce yourself before asking me the same? Isn't that common courtesy?"
