Whilst Grayson hurried back home, hundreds of miles up in orbit the UNSS Patriot was unloading its cargo. As per usual, a small amount had gone missing, but this small amount was rapidly adding up to thousands, if not millions of dollars worth of minerals. The captain, Colonel Ashley Kupinov, had finally decided to come down hard on the thieves. As he reached the end of the cargo bay, the lieutenant in charge of unloading the ship hurried over to speak to him. 
"Whats the damage?" muttered kupinov
"Just a few gems, sir" replied the lieutenant
"Oh, thats ok then"
"Yes, however one of the missing gems was a 30cm perfect sapphire"
"WHAT?" exploded Kupinov, drawing nervous glances from all around the bay
"well...urmm...yes" squeaked a now incredibly nervous lieutenant, fully aware all eyes were now on him and the captain
"Who was on patrol near the gems" Shouted Kupinov, his tone of voice growing more aggravated by the second.
"Privates Coot and Finch sir"
"Arrest them and search their quarters"
"Well thats the thing, sir. We arrested Coot and searched him and his quarters, but we cant find the gem. Finch however, it seems he disembarked almost immediately after docking, and theres nothing in his room"
"Well then get some men on the ground to find him then" Screamed Kupinov, his voice having now reached a blistering level
"Will do, right away, sir"

They wouldnt find Finch though. Because at that very moment he was sat in a darkened room, tied to a chair by a pair of masked men, with tattoos in the shape of a sun on the back of their hands, who had ambushed him shortly after his meeting with Grayson.
"Wheres the gem" the first one shouted, seemingly the leader of the two
"I dont know" cried out Finch "I don't know"
"You must, you had it" shouted the second man
"Im honest, i don't know"
"Get the whip, M7" muttered the leader
"wha..what are you going to do with me?" whined Finch
"Tell us what you know and you wont get hurt" muttered the one called M7, a menacing tone to his voice
"It was Grayson, a back market dealer"
The leader thought to himself for a moment, considering the possibility
"You think he's telling the truth G5?"
"Seems plausible enough, lets go and pay him a visit" said G5
"So you'll let me go then" said Finch hopefully
The two whumps as the bullets from the silenced pistol struck Finch in the head, echoed around the room. 
And the two men headed off after Grayson
