[edit] Prologue
Robbers, Pirates and Outlaws live by a code so they can can have self respect.
[edit] Plot
The Outlaw Star is on a seemingly ordinary tug job, when the advertising ship they're pushing latches onto them and takes out their computer. The culprit turns out to be a terrorist named Crackerjack. He has placed a bomb on the towed ship and threatens to blow it up along with the Heifong spaceport unless Heifong is given independence. Suzuka and Aisha while tracking down information on the ownership of the ad ship discover Crackerjacks true identity with help from Fred Luo (Which Fred agreed to do for free when he heard that Gene was involved) and go to the spaceport and contact Gene to tell him that Fred discovered that the ad ship which used to belong to pirates was sold to a gang of robbers. Gene now knowing Crackerjacks true identity as a robber, realizes that the bomb threat is a ruse so Crackerjack and his gang can steal from a jewelry exhibition on the evacuated spaceport. While Gene works on disarming the bomb on the Outlaw Star, Aisha and Suzuka confront Crackerjack and his gang and take down everyone except for Crackerjack. Gene shows up just in time to deal with Crackerjack personally.
