The Angelfire Logs: Continued

[Reaper]

The pub did no more than show Eli than none remembered the Angelfire incident and that the pub visit would be a waste. As he finished his whiskey, a uniform sat down beside him, slid him an envelope and walked away. As subtle as he tried to make it, it was noticed by the bartender. After the uniformed man left, he leaned in and asked eli, "Now what would the captain of the LNS-Polaris want with a feller like you?"

Eli sneared at the bartender and walked out to the street. It was raining out as he stepped into the taxi shuttle. Eli hadn't felt rain in some time. He pulled the envelope out of his chest pocket an opened it... inside was 7 million credits.

"Enough to get started." Eli thought to himself.
