Copernicus and Sherri were still in the middle of saying good-bye when Summer and her group left the bar. Copernicus caught his breath and then decided to give them a little more head start before he took Sherri’s car for the drive back to Kanac.

He didn’t realize how much he missed the passion of the fiery blonde from western Kentucky. And she seemed to be just as hungry for passionate backseat sex as he was. He laughed. She ran a hotel right across the street. But still, seeing the steamy windows of the transport gave him a thrill he hadn’t experienced since high school.

Eventually, he was on the road and following the directions Sherri gave him on how to get back to the main part of Kanac. Although the jungle between Kanac, the spaceport and Balamar had been cut down and buildings were going up, there was still only one major thoroughfare that ran past the landing field. It was almost impossible to get lost, and fifteen minutes later, Copernicus was passing the vast grounds of the spaceport on his right.

The field was packed full of spaceships of every description. Besides the growth the planet was experiencing, there were the on-going negotiations between refugee groups regarding how to proceed with the vote to join one of the empires. This was something relatively new, coming about after the galaxy nearly went to war again, this time over the right to govern the Dead Zone. That crisis was manufactured, but it was still a sober reminder of what was at stake.

That’s when talks began, and it was decided the refugees themselves—the only people with an absolute right to the Dead Worlds—should have a say as to which empire had authority over the region. Privately, both the Expansion and the Union weren’t happy with the decision, but publicly, they supported it. Now all that was required were the actual details. There was a major fight taking place over proportional voting, giving more power to those refugees with the largest populations. And that prompted smaller groups to band together to form voting blocks. It was turning out to be more complicated than it needed to be, which was the reason for a delay in the vote. A firm date hadn’t set, and it didn’t look as if the vote was going to take place anytime soon.

All of this meant that the Kanac spaceport was packed to the gills with visitors to the planet. The main negotiations were taking place at the huge Maris-Kliss Resort in Balamar. Contractors had rushed to finish most of the facility, at least enough to host the conference. MK was cleaning up because of this. And Capt. Cain’s Bar & Grill a mile away wasn’t hurting, either.
