"Convey this message to the pontiff", said Juan the soldier behind him.
"His Will". said this, she turned and walked out the door.
The room we had been allocated was as majestic as the rest of the complex.
"Wachouzki Alferez" said through the communicator, "meets the guard in the front yard, I want to address them".
Not had time to answer, he turn off the computer, had other things in mind, recent reports of heavy fighting were in Omicrom Delta and Zeta between nomads and elements of the called Order, bounty hunters and some of the Zoners from Freeport 11.
At half an hour to check holoimages and maps, is dress in her best robes, and came striding into the courtyard.
Appearing all, 50 soldiers were facing the firm and shouted in unison, "without sleep, without rest, eternal wach!"
Juan waved them off and everyone relaxed with gun on his shoulder.
"Guards, today is the first step on a long and dangerous journey, our private lives and not our own, we owe it to the greater good, but we all know that the reward is imperishable, the humandkind sing our names, as if they were saints and martyrs, will be remembered as our service and sacrifice to achieve what we have been given by Deux".
Everyone shouted in unison, "Su Voluntad! Su Voluntad! Su Voluntad!"
With a smile and a slight movement of the command baton silence them.
"Well, today, I entrust the life of the Pontiff to you, I must return to the Omicrons to support our allies, from today Alferez Wachouzki will command you".
"Alferez" said aloud, "take it".
Containing a smile Wachouzki nodded, "move men", he cry to the men and woman that form the Pontiff personal guard.
"One last thing Alferez, tell to the Pontiff that is approaching his appointment, let me know if he want to be present at the dinner, if not so, i will rest and tomorrow morning i will take a shuttle to meet with our ships in Freeport 9".
Juan stood for a moment staring at the guard leaving the room with a growing pride in his chest.
