Gene and Jim are hired by "Rachel" to protect and escort her as she services farm equipment. When they are attacked by Guild pirates they learn Rachel is really Hilda, a pirate in search of treasure. After the pursuing pirates are defeated, Hilda shoots Gene and forces Jim to fetch a large container.
