Price of Evolution

[Occam Razor]

Cormac receives a transmission in his head. Alexander Bane, the captain of the Evolution, appears.
"Ian Cormac, this is Sir Alexander Bane, commander of the ,,Evolution". Your docking permission is granted. Shield are now deactivated. The only problem is, our ship doesn't have the capability to allow docking access for your Shuttle and thus, you will have to moor."
"Thank you, Captain. Coming in to dock."
He moves the shuttle towards the dock. Few meters away of the mooring point he turns the shuttle and engages the brake thruster. Cormac hears a small thump when the shuttle docked. The door at the end of the shuttle opens and he walks through. After he walked through the airlock. the shuttle undocks and moves back to the AI Cruiser. The AI Cruiser then engages the Cloaking. Cormac moves into a bright room. His dark clothes are sticking out of the greenish room. His sharp features and thin arms look human, but his metallic sounding steps reveal that he is more. His penetrating look falls on Captain Bane.
"Hello, Captain."
