Roanoke was slowly flying through West Dallas Debris field - its hull still battered and patched as always, but only minor damage suffered since its encounter with hostiles in Pennsylvania, and crew was working around the clock to fully repair and restore its systems.
But inside of it, something more interesting was about to happen.
Virginia walked through vessel's narrow and darkened corridors as only half of the lights was turned on in order to save fuel and parts. Its engines and reactor were humming somewhere above and behind her. She was dressed in her usual attire of brown military cargo pants with turtleneck with matching color and longcoat casually hanging from her shoulders, with belt pouches for her communicator and two clips for her holstered handgun.
Virginia opened door in front of her and nodded at two men following her to wait outside while she stepped in and closed heavy door behind her. Room in front of her was looking like a brig, although a lot of its cells have already been repurposed as storage rooms for additional supplies. She slowly walked towards one of the remaining holding cells with man dressed in full flight suit and reached into her pockets for cigarette case and lighter.
"You've boarded my ship sooner than I thought.", she said a smirk on her face and immediately lit one of her vanilla scented cigarettes, "You can remove your mask now if you want, there are no witnesses.".
