Somebody is not happy that we saved the world in the first game, and in this entry, we meet that somebody.
In the airlock chamber, go up to the uniform on the left and SWITCH CLOTHES. From here, you can look at the lockers, but there is nothing interesting about them. If you OPEN LOCKER, then look at it, you'll open a locker and find your cubix rube puzzle and an athletic supporter. GET RUBE. GET SUPPORTER. CLOSE LOCKER.
If you look at your inventory, you'll find that you have two items: an order form and a dialect translator. Keep these in mind for later.
Walk up to the door to the west and it will open. Keep going west and you'll enter the transportation control room, where your boss tells you to go straight to the shuttle bay while making it clear that he is about to fire you. He also sends a command to the transportation officer to make sure you go over there...and nowhere else.
You can talk to the people here, but they will tell you to get moving and that you also owe them twenty buckazoids.
To get moving, walk onto the part of the floor with the yellow and black stripes. This is a platform that will take you to the pneumatic transport tube. Walk into the hole with the red wall inside, and you'll be be taken to the shuttle bay.
Once you reach the shuttle bay, you can look at the shuttle, and if you walk down the stairs, you can look at the refueler. To enter the shuttle, walk up the stairs that are underneath it. Roger will go inside only to get beaten up by two guys inside to the point of unconsciousness.
Time will pass, and when Roger comes to, he finds out that he is being held hostage by the two goons from before. Roger will soon make out a rather large man connected to a life support machine. This is Sludge Vohaul, the genius behind the Star Generator back when it was still in its concept stages. (The Vohaul from the data cartridge in the last game was Slash Vohaul, meaning that Sludge is a different person.) He wanted it to be his war weapon, but scientists decided it was better used saving lives rather than destroying them, which he considers a waste of technology. He knows that Roger ruined his Sarien operation to make Xenon pay for that they did to him, and wants to make sure that Roger is not around to foil his next plan. That plan: infest Xenon with thousands of genetically engineered door-to-door life insurance salesmen. He originally planned to kill Roger, but he had a change of heart, and would rather watch him suffer in his forced labor mines in Labion.
From there, an injection renders Roger unconscious, and he is loaded onto a shuttle out of Vohaul's massive asteroid fortress. You'll then land on Labion and be ushered to a hovercraft taking you to the mines. On the way there, however, the platform falls due to a lack of fuel, and the two soldiers (who look like something out of Planet of the Apes) argue before the platform crashes to the ground. You survive, but the guards do not.
