Taking the service elevator directly from the hanger to C-Level, Marston muttered to himself quietly. Few ever seemed to understand his perplexing rambles; they were ether about his work or something that had manged to annoy him. This time it was about his unexpected meeting with his colleague.

As the elevator made its way up slowly, screeching after ever floor it passed, Marston checked his briefcase, making sure it had everything it should. He steadily picked out every object, from classified files to his side arm, just to be sure that he was prepared for anything; this is after all, his first meeting with the good lady.

The elevator came to a grinding halt as the destination level was reached. Marston waited for the doors as they slowly scraped open, making way for him. Marston began strolling along the corridor, his steps loud and commanding, towards the meeting hall. Upon facing the security door, he walked up to it only for it to open before him and find Lyell staring back at him, waiting.
