Jet: More like environmental terrorists. They're called the Space Warriors. They used to be a good group working on environmental preservations and the protection of endangered species. But since their leader changed two years ago, their focus drastically changed. They are only a few members but now they're even worse than a lot of syndicates out there. They're especially keen on protecting the Ganymede sea rats. And she's the leader of this terrorist group: Twinkle Maria Murdock.
Murdock: Please, don't associate us with terrorists! We are warriors of peace, fighting for the law of nature.
Spike: Yeah, yeah. And where can we get the 25 million reward?

While having dinner at a nice restraunt and planning on capturing a bounty, Spike and Jet meet a problem: Twinkle Maria Murdock. Due to their bounty's unhealthy obsession with eating endangered animals, Maria and her Space Warrior group kill the bounty and most of the restraunt as well. However, Jet recognizes her face as a bounty as well, and Spike captures her.
It seems that the planet that issued her bounty has recently cancelled it. The group of bounty hunters come across Miss Valentine again, who found a dying ISSP agent that had a vial of some sort. The bounty hunters decide that they have to release Murdock, but for what reasons and what does the vial have to do with all this?
