The Burning Skull Rises

[Charos]

The Lord Commander was surprised by her behavior, it was completely un-militaristic and undisciplent, but he knew that was going to be the deal with her so he ignored it. "My apologies Captain, now please take me to Admiral Hunter."

As they were walking through the corridors towards the command room elevator, Markus noticed the Captain was completely relaxed about this and her position "Captain Osorio, how old are you? You look very young to be a Captain, skills and experience come with time and you seem to have just started, those are two important things a Captain must have in order to fullfill his responsibilities." Emilia stopped and glared at Markus for a few seconds, then she laughed out loud and resumed walking. "My age is irrelevant. All you need to know is that I'm old enough to kill. Admiral Hunter said so." Markus let out a silent sigh and kept following her through the familiar corridors untill they reached the elevator "Uhhh...the password...what was it again?" Emilia said as she looked at the console. Her gaze then shifted towards the palm of her right hand on which she had scribbled the 6-digit code. "I'm really bad with numbers." She then mumbled and entered the code."

In the elevator Emilia kept staring at the Lord Commander tilting her head side to side. "Lord Commander, the princess has been waiting for you, don't be a disappointment to her please?" Markus was slightly irritated by her behavior towards him "You sure talk a lot, you need to learn to control that mouth of yours and I assure you, she won't be disappointed."
Emilia started laughing at Markus's irritation which made him even more irritated, she continued laughing untill the elevator reached the command room. "We're here Lord Commander, look pretty for the princesa!" The door opened to the command room, Admiral Hunter was sitting on the captain's chair and stood up as soon as the Lord Commander set foot in the room, the others stood still"

Markus slowly approached Cristina while looking at the people in the room, only recognising Madison Garcia "Cristina, it's been some time since we last saw each other. I see you have some new people under your command, they don't know how to treat their guests however so I hope they are atleast better at other things."
