Rose-Marie tapped her comm device once while the shuttle was lowering altitude to the destination. She was conflicted and worrisome inside that this might all be a farce. She knew she had to have contingency plans, so she devised a plan. Her Battlegroup's atmosphere capable ships were all on yellow alert and waited at Issoudun, except she felt she would call one to the high orbit of Bordeaux. "Dumont to Tremblay, prepare to be on yellow alert at high orbit of Bordeaux on dark side of the planet. Link with Dutertre and Lance Royale for intel and data feed. Also have someone drop a wing of Caracals, as well as a GAT at a moment's notice. We cannot risk anything. Precise location will be disclosed only in case of emergency, otherwise it is classified information. Over."
On the receiving end of the line, an ex-Foreign Legion captain, Tobias Wayne was sitting as Tremblay's X.O. He got the orders, nodded and cut the comm. Then turned around and barked orders at his helm officers, fitting the Bretonian defector's nature. Tremblay gained momentum and two short beeps was sent to Contre-Amiral's comm device, signaling execution of the order.
Dumont made a brief nod and smiled at seemingly nowhere as the ship was to make it's final approach at the outpost.
